The Prankster (Marauders Era Harry Potter)

Snowpaw

I raised an eyebrow at the three boys in front of me.

"Is this just so I can replace Pettigrew?"

They winced.

"No, Snowpaw. We want you to join us!"

I rolled my eyes.

"Why?"

"Moony, Snowpaw, Padfoot and Prongs." Sirius muttered, "I like it." He shrugged.

I laughed softly.
"One condition-"

"Shouldn't we be telling you the conditions?"

"Not if you want legendary Chrysalis Adams with you, no."

They closed their mouths.

"I get to help Remus during the full moon."

Remus shook his head immediately.

"No."

"Why?"

"You're a tiny dog, for one. How would that help?"

I shifted into a large tiger, baring my teeth, and then switched back.

"You guys have the memory of a goldfish. I'm a shape shifter."

"Oh.."

"Yeah."

"But you'd get hurt!" Remus pointed out.

I gave him a skeptical glance.

"Look, Remus, I've jumped off the Astronomy tower for fun before. You really think I can't handle a werewolf?"

"Wouldn't you have died if you jumped off the tower?"

I scoffed.

"Not if you're me." I beamed.

Remus looked at me uneasily, before sighing in defeat.

"Fine. The next full moon is next week." He muttered.

"Great!" I said brightly, skipping up to the Dorm.

"I swear, the girl's mental." Sirius muttered, as they headed up to their dorms.

I rolled my eyes at them, but smiled, laying in bed.

I hadn't had lunch, or dinner, but I wasn't really hungry.

Scratch that. I am.

I crept out of bed, and, making sure the coast was clear, ran out of the Common Room. After a couple of minutes, I was standing in front of the painting with the bowl of fruit. I tickled the pear, trying to 'shh' it as it giggled. The door swung open and, looking both ways as if about to cross a muggle street, flung myself in, quickly closing the door behind me.

"Hello Miss! What can Twitchy do for you?"

A little house elf stood in front of me, looking at me with big, shiny blue eyes.

"I would like a big thing of mint chocolate ice-cream." I said politely, watching as a grin spread out on her face.

Really, all I did was ask for food.

"Coming right up, Miss!"

A few minutes later, I was sitting, a big tub of mint chocolate ice-cream on my lap. I held a big spoon, and, right when I was about to dig in, the painting swung open to reveal James Potter.

"What are you doing here?" I hissed, narrowing my eyes.
"Same reason you are! For food!" He said, then, seeing my tub of ice-cream, smirked, "Or for dessert. Whichever. It's a wonder how you don't weigh 500 pounds."

I laughed.
"Magic."

Footsteps sounded outside of the painting and I quickly found a place to hide as James chuckled.

"I know they're here some where, Mrs. Norris, my sweet.." I heard Filch mutter as he passed the painting quickly.

"Close call."

He rolled his eyes, dragging me out from under the table. He grabbed my spoon and took a big bite out of my ice-cream, causing me to glare at him.
"Don't glare at me, Ms. Adams."

I didn't answer, just pulled my ice-cream closer to me, and, while glaring, slowly took a bite. He laughed at me and shook his head. James got up and returned a few minutes later with two pumpkin pasties and two pumpkin juices.

"Thanks."

"Who said it was for you?" He joked, but handed me one of each.

When we had both finished out 'food', we left the kitchens and headed back to the Common Room. He entered his Dormitory while I entered mine. I smiled at his retreating back and skipped upstairs, almost forgetting my surprise tomorrow.

Perhaps that thought was the thing that forced me to sleep so quickly.

*~*~*

I woke up the next day, and, still in my pajamas, which consisted of a pair of white sweatpants and an over-sized long sleeved grey shirt that spelled out 'MARVEL' in red, I bounded downstairs and lunged at James, tackling him to the floor.

"WHOA!" He yelled.

"WHERE'S MY SURPRISE?" I snapped.

"I manage to convince Dumbledore to bend the rules.." 

I gave him a surprised look. He grabbed my hand and smiled at me. 

"Is it a gift?" I asked suspiciously. 

He looked away sheepishly. 

"Did you spend money on it?"

 He looked down, a small smile on his face. 

"James Potter, I don't want any gifts!" 

He laughed. 

"Too bad, Chrysalis Adams!"Still gripping my hand, he sat me down on the couch.

 He covered my eyes and I heard the shuffling of footsteps.

 "Okay, mate. It's ready." I heard Sirius say, and I could practically hear the grin on his face. 

James uncovered my eyes and I gasped. 

"Oh my gosh!" I squealed.

In front of me was the cutest thing I have ever seen. It was a teacup, black and white chihuahua, with little overalls on. (Picture on the top)

"JAMES! I'm still angry at you for spending money, but THANK YOU!" I laughed, hugging him.

"Hey!  I helped too!" Sirius whined.

I stuck my tongue out, but hugged him, nevertheless. He grinned at me and I turned to James, still grinning.

"Now I have a pig and a dog!" I chuckled.

"What are you gonna name them?"

"Bacon and Oreo."

"Snow for the pig and Bacon for the dog?" James guessed.

I beamed at him.

"Nope."

*~*~*

SO THAT'S THE LAST UPDATE FOR TODAY. AND WEDNESDAY, THURSDAY, AND FRIDAY. Only because my laptop needs charging and I'm sleepy. I have to wake up at 10:00 tomorrow. I know what your thinking, 'That's not early. I wake up at 8 everyday!' I DON'T CARE. It's early for me.

GOODBYE NOW,, MY FIRE HYDRANTS!

my hair is so red...
