The Marauders at CHB

Chapter 1

Remus's POV

"RISE AND SHINE REMUS!" Sirius screamed. I woke up with a start and groaned. Sirius opened the blinds and sunlight streamed in.

"I'm sleeping," I mumbled. "FOOD!" Sirius yelled, jumping on me, and I sat up as he made to strangle me. "Alright, alright, I'm up," I said, and tripped towards the bathroom before Sirius could decide I wasn't fast enough. "Bloody Quiddich practice," I muttered. Since James and Sirius always woke up at 5 in the morning, they took the liberty of waking me up in the rudest way possible. I shrugged on a clean robe and walked back into the dorm, picking up my bookbag.

"Let's go," I sighed. "FOOD!" Sirius yelled again. "Do you HAVE to yell?" I complained. "YESSSSSSSS!" Was Sirius's response. I grumbled and walked out of the portrait hole, not waiting for the rest. I sat at the table and started eating, when James, Sirius and Peter caught up with me. "Mooooooooonnyyy you didn't wait!" Sirius complained. "Yeah and you didn't let me sleep, it happens to the best of us." He shrugged and started inhaling food. I winced as bits of bacon and bread flew across the table. Professor Mcgonagall passed out the timetables, and I looked over mine. "Divination," I sighed. "At least ill get to sleep," "Cue the death predictions!" James joked, right when Lily walked over. "Honestly, Potter, it's a useful subject." Sirius scoffed, "yeah. Looking at tea leaves, that's productive," Lily gasped. "Merlin Sirius, that's such a big word! I'm proud of you!" While James and Peter laughed and Sirius pretended to look offended, Lily turned to me. "Do we have any classes together this week?" I asked her. "That's what I came over for." She whipped out her schedule and we compared. "We both have Divination first," I commented. "I HAVE DIVINATION FIRST TOO!" Sirius and James said together, then burst out laughing. "Honestly you two, you're so immature," Lily started to leave when James grabbed her hand. "Let me go, Potter," she snapped and ripped her hand out from his. "Wait, Evans! Hogsmeade on Saturday?" Lily scoffed. "In your make believe dreams, Potter," and she spun on her heel, grabbed her bag and headed to first period. James smirked, but I could see the sadness in his eyes.

"C'mon, let's go," I said, trying to get his mind off of it. "We can practice making up death predictions!" James nodded happily and skipped out of the great hall. "Manly," Sirius snorted. I smiled and grabbed mine and James's bag and started towards Divination. Obviously James and Sirius got distracted on the way there because I got there way before them, and I sat next to Lily. Finally when class was about to start, James and Sirius dashed into the classroom, breathless. Lily rolled her eyes and stared into the crystal ball. As Trelawney droned on and on, I absentmindedly poked the crystal ball, slipping into unconsciousness.

Suddenly there was a boom, the crystal ball exploded and I passed out.

I was at the base of a hill, and a basilisk was chasing me. I fumbled for my wand but it wasn't there anymore. I dashed up the hill, away from the creature, avoiding its eyes. There was a pine tree at the top with a shimmering fabric on the lowest branch, a dragon curled around the tree and a girl wearing a bronze chest plate and a helm was standing at the top. She drew her sword. As I got closer to her I started slowing down, but I didn't know why. "Can't... Get... Through!" I gasped in desperation. I saw her eyes widen and she shouted, "I, Clarisse, give you permission to enter camp!" Suddenly I appeared at the pine tree, and I passed out again.

I came to sitting on a rocking chair. I looked around, and saw Lily, Sirius and James looking at me with concern. "What happened?" I asked, my throat dry. "We don't know," Lily answered. "The crystal ball exploded and opened up into a hole and sucked you in. We tried to grab you and we got sucked in too. The shards of glass hit you and you were covered in blood, unconscious when we got to the base of the hill. We couldn't get over the hill until this girl who was guarding it pledged that we could enter. We hauled you over here where they healed your cuts." Lily jumped up. "I'll tell them you're awake." I looked at my arms. They looks fine, except a they had a few thin white lines on them.

A minute later a middle aged looking guy appeared in a wheelchair. "Hello!" He said cheerfully. "How are you feeling?" "I'm okay. I'm used to pain." I replied. My friends nodded, agreeing. "I'm Chiron," he said, pronouncing it 'Ki-Ren' "I assumed you were mortal, since you couldn't get through the borders, but you passed out, so you might've not had influence. May I ask, what are you?" "I'm u-uh..." I sputtered, unsure whether I could trust him. My instincts said I could, but I shouldn't assume.

Suddenly a half human-goat thing walked past and turned abruptly. "Are you a monster?" He asked, startled so much he dropped the platter of cheese and grapes he was carrying. "What? No! That's mental!" I said, my thoughts clearing. The goat person shrugged and ran- no, trotted, off.

Lily sighed. "No it's not. Remus, ill tell them." I relaxed. Chiron interrupted. "I sense you aren't entirely human, but not a half-blood. What are you?" He studied me closer. "Wait, how can you sense that?" I asked. He sighed, and stood up. His legs seemed to detach from his body and a long white thing stood where they should be. More of the white thing came out of the wheel chair and I realized that the wheelchair had to be enchanted to hold all of it. When he stood up straight, my mind finally comprehended what I saw. He was a centaur.

"Ahh, how good it is to stretch my legs! They've been cooped up in that thing to too long." He paused. "Can you see what I am?" "Yo-you're a centaur!" Sirius stuttered. "What is this place?!" "That will be explained soon. First, may I ask again, what are you?" I looked at Lily for help. "Well you see sir, when Remus, That's his name, was little he was bitten by werewolf. That's why he's not full human."

"I see... I sense I can trust you four... Perhaps I should call Annabeth..." He trailed off. I looked at my friends and shrugged. "Grover?" Chiron called, and another Goat thing trotted up. "Yeah Chiron?" He asked, his eyes darting nervously to me. "Please go fetch Percy, Annabeth and Tyson, this is important." "Bla-ha-ha" he bleated. "I smell monsters!"

"It's not a monster, Grover. Please go get them." Grover nodded and trotted off. A few minutes of awkward silence later, and Grover returned, with a boy with black hair and sea green eyes, a girl with blonde hair and gray eyes and a... Cyclops were running behind him. "Percy, Annabeth, Tyson, this is Remus, Lily, James and Sirius." He looked at us. "This is Percy, Annabeth, Tyson (the Cyclops) and Grover." While my friends stared at Tyson in shock, I remembered my manners and said, "Nice to meet you!" And reached out my hand. Annabeth gingerly took my hand and shook, and her friends looked at Chiron, all of them ready to blow up with questions.

Suddenly, when I spoke, Percy, the black haired one, looked at me, startled. "I-I know that voice," he said, shaking. "It's higher, but I definitely know that voice,"

"You do know that voice," said someone with very pale skin and sunken eyes. Percy jumped and spun around, and relaxed. "Nico! Don't sneak up on me like that! Besides, I thought you hated me!"

Nico sighed. He couldn't have been more than 14, but at the same time looked older, as if he'd been through alot of stress. "I don't hate you. I finally managed to summon Bianca's ghost, and she told me what actually happened. I'm sorry." I looked from Nico to Percy. Nico looked uncertain, while Percy looked relieved. I thought better than to ask, hoping I would learn soon enough. "How did you know that I knew his voice?" Percy asked. Nico shrugged. "A ghost told me."

Annabeth's POV
I steadied Percy so he didn't fall. I looked at him, and he had a look of confusion and concentration. I'd been in enough life-or-death situations to know that he wasn't joking. "You've heard Remus's voice before?" I asked him gently. He was too spooked to even complain. He just nodded. "I-in a dream," I relaxed. "So you dreamed about Remus?" "Yeah..." He breathed. The Werewolf and the others were looking at us in wonder now. "I can't remember much now, I only remember a bunch of colorful lights, a city, yelling and evil laughs."

Lily looked at her friends with wide eyes. "Do you think he's talking about the Death Eater attack during the last Hogsmeade weekend?" She asked, more to her friends than to us. "He must have." Said the one with messy black hair. He turned to me. "What year is it?" I looked at him skeptically. "2008..." I said warily. All four of them looked at each other with wide eyes. "What?!" I asked them anxiously, "what year are you from?" This time, the boy named Sirius spoke up. "We're from 1977..." I looked at Percy and gulped.
