Disclaimer: Annie and Lizz belong to themselves, Jamie is of my own making, and just about everything else belongs to J.K. Rowling.
In my lovely fan fiction, Remus remembers what he did as a werewolf (Which I think is true in the book, but there are some who believe otherwise). I also know the whole Lily-James story, but it's not going to happen.
Prelude:
Jamie, Lizz and Annie walked into the London train station in slight awe. None of them had ever even been to a train station. They used the airport at their old school, Saldrons Academy. But this year they had convinced, after months of begging and sad, puppy eyes, their parents that "We need to travel abroad and meet new people, find our place in this world!" a.k.a. Saldrons was boring as hell and they wanted to go to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry in England.
"I hope it is worth all that effort we spent to get here" Lizz remarked.
"It will be, I mean come on, we're in England, remember? Anything has got to be more fun than Saldrons!" Jamie laughed.
Chapter 1: Animagi
It was the first night of their fifth year of Hogwarts, and Prongs, Padfoot, Wormtail, and Moony walked along the edge of the Forbidden Forest in their animal forms. Wormtail perched on James's antler, who was guiding Moony towards the Whomping Willow. Padfoot, on the other hand, with his big, black nose high in the air, obviously sensed something. Moony, in his werewolf form, used this momentary distraction to break away, heading towards the school entrance. James and Sirius broke into a run after him. Peter squeaked, and in surprise, fell off James and had only two legs before he hit the ground.
They came upon Remus, but strangely he was sitting staring at a wolf, who was staring at him in equal astonishment. The wolf had big blue eyes that had an unnerving look of human intelligence to them. A small, reddish falcon flew up and landed on the wolf's head, but the wolf didn't move a muscle. Prongs and Padfoot repositioned themselves on either side on of Moony, and a lion's, but softer and sharper, growl came stealing over the grounds coming from the direction of the greenhouses. The hawk took and flew off in its direction, and one of the wolf's ears swiveled around, but it continued to stare at Moony.
The insistent growl came again, coming closer to a roar this time, and the wolf finally ran off after the falcon. The guys sat there in silence until the sun came up a few minutes later.
"What the hell was that? Remus I thought you had gotten better! You could have hurt or bitten someone!" James yelled as soon as they were in their dorm, forgetting Remus had no control over his werewolf self. Remus was silent, as was Sirius, who was looking at Remus as well. After a few wearisome minutes, Sirius said.
"That was an Animagus."
"No way, how could you tell?" James blurted. He was still furious with Remus.
"I could smell it, and you know what else?" Sirius yelled, continuing without waiting for a response, "There were three of them."
At this time Peter burst into the dormitory and collapsed onto his bed. He was covered in leaves and dirt, they had forgotten about him. James, Sirius, and Remus walked out silently leaving Wormtail to his whistley snoring.
"Who could it have been?" Sirius said loudly in the common room. James silenced him and peered around the Gryffindor common room, luckily it was still early and there were only a few students wiping the sleep from their eyes in front of the fire. James whispered "tower" and all Marauders present went to their meeting place.
Sirius locked the door to the East Tower's top room, the Marauder's meeting place, while Remus sealed it with a silence spell. James conjured up three huge bean bags that they crashed into once they were done. Sirius finally asked the question that was buzzing through their minds.
"Who the hell were those Animagi!"
" We're going to have to find out who they are, and I think we can eliminate all guys younger than us, I mean come on it took us the middle of last year to finally master it." James was already pulling up a list of guys in his head and checking them off one by one. Not Snape, Diggory, Bones…
"And we practiced every free minute. I don't know anyone like that, do you?"
"They weren't guys" Remus spoke for the first time since the night before.
"No, I... What?"
"Those three were girls, I can… kinda tell. I have a good nose too you know."
