Metamorphmagus (Marauders Era)

James? Peter? Re- wait, REMUS?!

It's Saturday morning now, but I wake up and I'm alone with Sirius. Where are the others? I look over at Sirius and realise that the top half of his body is hanging off the side of the bed, he's fast asleep and his mouth is hanging open. I stifle a laugh, which comes out as a snicker. I glance at the clock and see that it's seven o clock. I decide to get up and get dressed, then to wake Sirius up.

My hair is in it's normal, blonde state when I brush it. I frown. It seems too normal, too boring. So I change it to my favourite colours, neon orange and neon purple. I brush my teeth and put in a Nirvana tank top and some jeans.

And then I jump onto Sirius.

He makes something that sounds like a whine and a grunt put together. "Ray, get off."

"Nope."

"James, give me a bit of he-"

"James, Peter, and Remus aren't here. Get up, we're going to find them." I go sit on my bed whilst Sirius gets ready.

"Alright, let's go find them." Sirius says, running his hand through his hair. He follows me down the stairs and into a half full common room.

I push open the door, deciding to look everywhere but the Great Hall first, starting as far away from said Hall as possible.

Sirius continuously either whines, yawns, or just talks, and my favourite of those is the latter. He can be really sweet sometimes, you've just got to know him better than most others.

"Well Sirius, if we haven't seen them by now, then we won't finds them anytime soon. Breakfast?" He perks up when I say 'Breakfast'.

He grabs my hand and pulls me along to the Great Hall, running. "Best idea you've had all morning! Come on!"

"Wait! Sirius, you've forgotten about the-" He falls over onto a landing, pulling me with him, "-trick step." I groan. Sirius landed on top of me and right on my stomach as well! I try breathing as best as I can. "S-Sirius," I croak, "p-please get off m-me." This takes a lot of effort bit Sirius rolls off, looking for a moment that he hurt himself really badly, but he then looks over at me, eyes wide. I wonder why?

Sirius' POV

I see how much Ray is struggling to breath, and my eyes widen. I rush to her side.

"Ray! Oh no, are you alright?" She looks confused.

"Just finding breathing a bit harder than usual."

"Um, ugh! Know of any spells that could help here?"

"Yes, the incantation is sana animam, point the wand at my nose then slowly move it down to the end of my rib cage, the only thing that could go wrong is that I could forget about the fall and the events afterwards, but that doesn't really matter."

"Okay," I clear my throat, "Sana Animam." I continue with the wand movement until she gasps.

"Thanks Sirius." She says, talking normally now. "Onto breakfast?"

Before I can reply, someone behind me speaks up. "You're not thinking about going there without us are you?"

Rayn's POV

"Peter, James!" I shout, throwing myself at James who, thankfully, catches me and pulls me into an embrace. "Have you seen Rem?" I ask.

"Last I saw of him was that he was going to 'speak to a teacher', but that was last night." Peter said.

"Right," that's weird, I never thought that Rem would have to speak to a teacher, "anyway, I say we wait for him in the Great Hall." They all nod. "So, James, Peter, where were you this morning." They look at each other, then look down at the floor.

Finally, James speaks up. "We, um," He clears his throat, "wehadadetention."

"What did you say?" Sirius said.

"We had a detention."

"You what?!" I shouted.

"You heard me."

"But, well, how, why?"

"Peter and I were planning a prank on the Slytherins that we were going to tell you last night, but Slughorn was walking behind us and overheard, so before we were able to get anywhere near the Common Room, he gave us detention. I have to say, the outcome of the prank would have been disasterous for anyone in Slytherin."

I shrugged, it was fair enough if they actually did the prank, but just plotting it? No. That's just unfair.

Remus isn't in the Great Hall but we sit down and have a big breakfast.

"Ugh, I'm so happy it's Saturday, I don't think I could take any classes today." Sirius groaned. I roll my eyes and take more bread.

~~~~small time skip~~~~

We've all finished our breakfast now, and Remus still isn't here.

"Let's go to the lake, to check if Rem is there, um, is anyone willing to go into the library?" James and Sirius both shake their heads, but Peter shrugs.

"I don't mind, if you three check around the library I'll meet you out the other side." I nod, Peter going through the library, us three going around, seems like a good plan.

"Let's get a move on then!" James and I say at the same time. Sirius and Peter burst into hysterics whilst I giggle and James snickers.

We walk to the library then split up. Peter goes into the library, James and Sirius go to the left and I go to the right. I check absolutely everywhere within about ten steps of the library, but no Remus. I get to the exit to see James and Sirius looking extremely worried. I bet you 10 galleons that I look worse. Peter comes out and shakes his head.

"Come on, we're going to find Minnie. We'll tell her that we can't find Remus, she'll know what to do."

We run to Minnie's office and knock. The 'come in' that follows gets cut off by me opening the door, "Professor! We can't find Remus and we've looked everywhere! Please, do you know where he is?"

"As a matter of fact, I do." My heart lifts. "He's in the Hospital Wing." My heart drops one hundred thousand feet. " He has an.... Infectious common cold."

She's lying. It's going to be much worse.
