The Stages Before a Lovers Quarrel ~ A Jegulily and Wolfstar Fanfiction

#16

At 5:25 there were around 60 -give or take- people, staff and students, standing beside the Black Lake. There were hay-bale shaped mountains of snow surrounding the area and baskets completely full with snow balls. You can hopefully get the gist of what the boys had organised.

They made sure not to draw attention to themselves as a temporary invisibility charm wore off of a piece of paper, explaining why the group had been called together. McGonagall picked it up, using her wand to project her voice to the crowd.

"Everybody settle down, we will find the meaning of this in a few moments." She began to read the letter aloud after commuting the first few lines to memory. "Welcome, welcome, to the Hogwarts 1st (hopefully) annual Snowball War. Today, we are not seperated by house, by level of authority or by blood. We are having fun. Divide into as many teams as you want and pick a colour for representation for we need to be able to tell one another apart. 1st of all NO MAGIC. next HAVE FUN, and finally NO FATAL INJURIES. We are all friends here.

Please relish in the moment of freeing yourself from all expectations and hit the person next to you with some frozen water. The games begin NOW!

Fantastically, the Marauders."

There was murmuring smoking the crowds before people began running behind the snow hedges, painting themselves in every colour imaginable. Peter and James immediately decided to gang up on Remus and Sirius, backing them into a corner until Severus, Lily and a few of the friends they'd made mercilessly destroyed them, laughing in their victory they took on staff, 7th years and everybody they could find. The war went on for 30 minutes max and the Evans-Snape duo won it all.
Especially after cruelly turning on their friends the greed for glory overcoming them and taking over.
First they eliminated Dorcas and Marlene, who had just taken out the last few teachers, Flitwick and Dumbledore.
Then, Mary, Emmeline and Alice realised what they had coming for them but as snowball after snowball was released they were no match for the almighty powerful Slythi-dor team.
Students of all year levels cowered back in fear. With no more snowballs in sight they had to dig them up with their hands.
Discarding their gloves for better aim, Lily and Severus were able to abolish the last team of senior students and become the Hogwarts 1st (hopefully) annual Snowball competition winners!

Afterwards, the teachers invited everyone to the Great Hall for hot chocolates to warm up after their freeIng adventure. Everybody seemed much less worried about house discrimination and more about how long it would be until their finger thawed out and for once, there was peace within the entire school.

A few days later, Harid came back from his holiday, 3 days early. He had acquired a new animal companion, an adorable puppy. He named it Fang, for the sharp teeth it possessed.

The last remaining days were a blur as everyone settled back into a cycle of boredom. Students flooded back into their dorms tired and overjoyed from their present and fun-filled holiday, talking over what they got with their friends and what they did with their families. Sirius, Remus, Peter and James were sitting in a room, talking to some of the third years on the quidditch team.

"So, what's your guys favourite strategy to use?" James

"Uh, we don't really look at the names of the strategies. Our captain, he just tells us roughly what we should do during certain points during the game. Sorry to disappoint."

"It's alright! Have you ever used the Mcgonagall Method? Minnie formed it when she was captain of Gryffindor 100-something hears ago."

Minerva, who was currently walking through the Gryffindor common room turned to stare at his soul. "I can hear you Mister Potter." Though she smirked at comment with her back turned.

I am in no way going through a really depressive episode and the only way I can express it is through jokes that i can see my friends are starting to worry about me at. Ummm anywayyy hi again.
