A/N: Gulp. SORRY! I know it's been forever. But guess what? I have a four point O GPA! Will someone tell me what GPA stands for? Anyway, I know this chapter seems like its RemusXLily, but no! It's just a crush. It will always be Lily/James forever! I promise. Also check out my other story, Jamie Potter. It pretty much tells you Jazz's marauder name, but it doesn't give any hints about her animagus form. Review! And thanks to the people who favorited and followed. Love to you!

...

Jasmine was frantically pacing. She was so worried.

"James Potter, where the heck is he?"

"Jazz, I'm sure he's fine. Go bother Lily," he replied, not looking up from his quidditch magazine. Jazz groaned.

"Fine," she grumbled, "Such a great friend you are." She threw him one last evil glance, and sprinted to the girls dorm.

"LILY!" Lily shot up from her bed, and then plopped back down.

"Jazz! You scared me." Jazz shrugged.

"Keep it down Jazz," mumbled Cherise (Cherry). The girls had quickly become best friends.

"Lily!" Jazz said again, ignoring Cherry.

"Mmmph." This time, Lily sat up. "What?"

"Remus hasn't come back from the Hospital Wing yet!" Lily shot out of bed.

"WHAT? What happened? Is he okay? What happened? What's-" Lily realized she was babbling, and shut up.

"Looks like someone has a crush." Alice had woken up.

"Good morning to you too, Alice."

"Good morning Lily. You. HAVE A CRUSH! On Jazz's best friend!"

"Hmph."

"Cherry, Jazz, do you confirm my suspicions of Lily's little crush on a certain Mr. Lupin?"

"Of course!"

"Yes, Alice darling. In fact, our sweet Lily-Flower has indeed admitted to fancying Mr. Lupin."

"Wonderful."

"So much for keeping it a secret," grumbled Lily, "Git." Jazz laughed.

"Whatever. Have you guys met Jeremy yet? He's so adorable!"

"Chang?" Cherry questioned. Jazz nodded enthusiastically.

"That second year?" asked Alice.

"Yeah."

"Have you guys seen Frank Longbottom?" said Alice. Lily frowned.

"Isn't he a Ravenclaw?" Alice nodded and giggled. Then a thought struck Jazz.

"Cherry, do you fancy anyone?" Cherry shrugged.

"Not really, but let me just say Jazz, you picked some gorgeous friends." Alice frowned this time.

"Are you talking about us, or like Potter and Black?" Cherry rolled her eyes.

"Potter and Black and Lupin," she said.

"What about Peter?" asked Jazz.

"Well, he seems nice enough, and I guess he's cute, but not super hot like the others." Jazz nodded, feeling a little protective of her guy friends. She imagined this is how they felt when she was around Jeremy, but she brushed off the thought as quickly as it had come.

"JAZZ! JAZZY! JASMINE, HONEY, DARLING!" Voices shouted from beneath the dorm floors.

"What?" she yelled back, making Cherry and Alice wince and cover their ears simultaneously.

"Remus is back, he's here!" Jasmine leapt off the bed, only to be instantly clobbered by Lily.

"Don't try anything," she growled, a small smile on her face. Jasmine rolled her eyes, as Cherry and Alice exchanged amused glances. She tumbled down the dorm stairs. She gasped as she saw her friend. He was sporting a black eye, and was covered with various bruises and cuts. His sandy hair was mussed, and his arm was wrapped with a stretchy kind of fabric. He was paler than ever, making his cuts stand out against his milky white skin. He looked absolutely exhausted.

"Remus, what in the name of Merlin happened?" cried Jazz. Remus grimaced, ever so slightly, and said,

"Slytherins." He looked so weak. Jazz ran over, and hugged him. His green eyes weren't shining with both mischief and disapproval as usual, instead they were hurt and filled with pain and misery. Flecks of amber drooped tiredly around his pupils.

"What did they do?" she whispered, not exactly wanting an answer.

"Hexed me when I was limping to the wing." He gave her a small smile, which she ignored. Jazz growled fiercely. "Some Gryffindor I am," finished Remus.

"I'll get them, I swear I'll kill-"

"No you won't," interrupted Remus.

"Why not?" She looked so hurt at the prospect of not murdering the Slytherins, that Remus had to stifle an oncoming burst of laughter.

"Why not?" repeated Jazz. Remus shook his head slightly.

"Because James and Sirius are upstairs plotting ways to deviously prank them till death." Jazz looked around, and sure enough, James, Sirius, and Peter were no where to be seen. Her face brightened.

"I wanna help!" She ran up the stairs to the boys dorm, and found James and Sirius jotting down prank ideas on a blank notebook. Remus also came up, limping on his right leg. Sirius was muttering something about 'slimy snakes.'

"Okay, down to business," said James, "What are the bad qualities of or Slytherin idiots?" Jazz thought he sounded like a prank professor.

"Snakes!"

"Slime!"

"Pure-blood crap!"

"Los-ers!" James looked thoughtful.

"Okay, what are things that they hate?"

"Pink."

"Fluffy stuff."

"Happiness."

"Fun."

"Gryffindors!" Peter looked pleased with himself as he shouted this out. James considered this for a while, making Jazz yawn. A few minutes passed, and Jamees snapped his fingers.

"Got it."

...

A few hours later, at dinner, the five came to breakfast, tired but exceptionally pleased with themselves. There were no Slytherins. The friends settled down to eat, all with little smiles on their faces, to the amusement of the Professors, and their friends. When the first Slytherin entered, there was a burst of laughter. The boy scowled, and the pranksters roared with laughter. His hair stuck up, each hair having a snake head on top, which were hissing violently. His skin was pink, and his robes flashed with messages such as 'Slimy Slytherins Suck!', 'Go GRYFFINDORS!', 'I'm a loser!', and so on. The second Slytherin was was bald, except for a large fluffy bunny atop his head, nibbling on a magenta carrot. He also scowled. More Slytherins came in, and the same reactions followed. Dumbledore cleared his throat.

"Whoever is responsible for this little show, fifty points from their house!" Professor McGonagall interrupted. Professor Dumbledore glanced at McGonagall, and said,

"Forty points to the responsible house for the use of imaginative, creative, and humorous magic. Also, ten points to Slytherin for putting up with and enduring the prank." His eyes sparkled mirthlessly. Professor McGonagall looked slightly irritated. James, Sirius, Remus, Peter, and Jazz grinned as ten points were taken from Gryffindor. Professor McGonagall's eyes narrowed. But little did everyone know, the pranks had not finished for the day. The cheerful mood resumed, and everything seemed as if it was back to normal. Until there was an outraged cry of,

"Ewww!"

"What in the name of Merlin?"

"The food! What the heck?"

"Gross! That's disgusting!" Remus had used a switching spell, and they had switched the sugar with the salt.

"Letorious," whispered Remus, shooting words out of the tip of his wand. The message, just above Dumbledore's head, read-

Hey ya'll! Did ya enjoy our pranks? Well sorry mates, they're over for today. But don't worry your pretty ugly heads, there'll be loads more while we're at Hogwarts. Enjoy your food!

Sincerely, or not,

The Marauders.

Silence filled the Great Hall, followed by applause. James and Remus had to hold Sirius down so he wouldn't stand up and take a bow. Jasmine and Peter high-fived under the table. Remus winked and grinned adorably at Jazz. The mischief in his eyes regained control. The letters faded into wisps of silver glitter, which floated onto the table, settling like falling snow. Remus had come up with the name after McGonagall had caught them for the second time out after curfew, and had said,

"Why you lot are like a bunch or marauders!" No one had thought much of it, until Remus had suggested it to be the groups name. James, Sirius, and Peter had loved it. Jazz agreed a little reluctantly, after a bit of persuading from Sirius. As Jazz looked at her friends, she felt the bond growing over them. The Marauders.
