It's the Marauders' first year at school, and it's going to be full of madness, mayhem, and above all, magic. (Sirius Black, Jamie Potter, Remus Lupin, and Petra Pettigrew.)

The next morning dawned early and bright, and Sirius squinted and scowled angrily at the sun shining directly onto her face through the curtains. She swore fluently enough to make a Hag blush.
Jamie looked over from where she was pulling on her Gryffindor jumper, and shook her head. 'Watch that dirty mouth of yours, Black.'
Sirius looked at her angrily and muttered a few more curse words before retreating back under her bedsheets.
Whilst everyone was changing, Remus made a dash for the toilets, so she could change in private before the toilets became busy.
After she was done, Sirius still had not emerged, and Frankie was mainly dressed, but she had forgotten her skirt, and began to walk to the Great Hall in her tights and sweater. Remus let out a howl of laughter, promptly clapping her hand over her mouth in horror at how wolf-like it sounded.
Jamie had finished changing and was trying to rouse Sirius. 'Oi, Lupin, come help me,' she ordered. 'Wake up, you great prat!' she shouted as she shook Sirius's inert form violently.
Remus smirked evilly. 'Aguamenti.' A thick jet of cold, clear water spouted from her wand and onto Sirius, who shrieked like a Banshee, sitting up in a hurry with a string of profanities.
'BUGGER YOU!' she screamed, loudly.
Remus rolled her eyes. 'Not my type, thanks,' before strolling off to the Great Hall, feeling rather pleased with herself.

Remus walked in by herself, and took an empty seat on the long benches. Mason McKinnon was there, and Remus nodded at him in a friendly manner. Mason nodded back nervously.
Remus had just finished her first slice of toast when Jamie and Sirius entered the Great Hall. Jamie laughed uproariously at some joke Sirius had told her, and shoved her, and Sirius shoved Jamie back. She slipped, screeching, and landed right on top of Lillian Evans who had walked in at that very moment.
Lillian let out a squeal of dismay as the breath was crushed from his body. Jamie stared right into his bright green eyes for a little too long, and Lillian stared right back into her bespectacled brown eyes... before shoving her off angrily, a red blush of anger and embarrassment blooming upon his cheeks, enough to rival the deep copper colour of his hair.
'Watch where you're going!' he spat angrily.
Jamie frowned back, looking hurt. 'Better watch that temper, love! It was an accident!' Her fingers snapped again.
Lillian ignored her, and stalked off to the table to get some breakfast before it was over. He sat beside Remus Lupin. Remus looked up. 'Oh... hiya,' she said nervously.
Lillian looked at her. 'Oh, hi. Are you mates with that lot?' he asked, nodding disdainfully in Jamie and Sirius's direction. Both were telling Petra and Frankie a very odd joke by the looks of it.
