It Started With A Prank War {The Marauders}

Chapter 19 - Now I Know

"Isabel... you know it doesn't really matter-"

"Shut up, I'm concentrating." I said to Remus and flipped through the pages. I was reading underneath the tree near the Black Lake. Remus was looking over my shoulder, Sirius was working on some homework (well that's what he said he was doing), James was playing with a snitch and Peter watched him with glee.

"I already have these three helping with my transformations-"

"I know, I know." I sighed. "I would just feel better if I knew there was a way I could help. Another way. And sorry Remus, but I'm not breaking the law for you. Not yet anyway."

"I'm glad you're not breaking the law."

"Me too. Isn't there a potion or anything?"

"There's no cure for lycanthropy."

"Nothing at all?? Fine, I will find a cure for lycanthropy." I tied my hair into a ponytail and sighed. I flipped through the book again.

"Isabel-"

"James, can I use your Potions book?" I asked. James looked at me.

"Why can't you use your own?" He asked, frowning. He caught the Snitch he had and pocketed it.

"I left mine upstairs." He sighed and gave me his book. "Thank you." I flipped through the pages rather quickly.

"Hey we have that Potions homework we need to do-"

"And unfortunately I have to do it with you..." Professor Slughorn had told us to list all the Potions and ingredients that we had learned with our partners. Unfortunately, I had to do it with James...

"Isabel, I told you." Remus said again. "There's no potion for lycanthropy." I sighed and closed James's book before passing it back to him.

"Why do you care so much anyway?" Sirius asked, lying down.

"How would you like it if you found out your friend was a werewolf?" They looked at me and raised an eyebrow. "You did find out your friend was a werewolf..."

"You don't have to do anything. You know that?" Remus stated.

"But I want to. That's the thing."

"Oh I just realised something!" Sirius exclaimed suddenly. We looked at him.

"What?" Peter questioned. Sirius sat up and grinned, looking at me.

"In Hogsmede. Remember Isabel?" My eyes widened and I groaned.

"Oh my Merlin no!" I put my head in my hands. "I can't believe-"

"Wait, what happened?" Remus asked. I sighed and Sirius and I explained what happened in Hogsmede, when Sirius appeared to me and the girls in his animagus form.

"Then James came and dragged Sirius away." I finished.

"You were playing with them?" Remus said, holding back a laugh. "And licking them?"

"Yep!" Sirius said proudly and nudged me. I pushed him away and glared at him.

"If I had known it was you I wouldn't have touched you!!" I yelled. Remus, Peter and James started laughing, almost rolling on the floor. "Oi it's not funny!!"

"You do know..." James started in between laughter. "That you were technically... kissing Sirius right?"

My eyes widened and I screamed in horror. "OH NO NO NO NO!!!!" I screamed, almost pulling my hair. The Marauders laughed, rolling on the floor. Sirius put an arm around me and grinned.
