Chapter 1

"Oi! Evans!"

Lily turned to the voice. For it was the one and only Sirius Black. His hair hung in curtains around his face, shining slightly in the bright light. His gray eyes gleamed with mischief. The smile on his face, the confidence with which he walked. Everything about him screamed troublemaker. Though Lily hated to admit it, it suited him very well.

"What do you want Black?" she snapped. She was supposed to meet Alice and Mary in their regular compartment in two minutes.

Sirius just grinned his grin, which only managed to make Lily's temper flare even more. "Just wanted to say hello. Is there something wrong with that?"

"Yes, there is. I don't want to talk to you." She turned to walk away.

"Ouch, Evans. You sure know how to hurt a man's ego."

"Good. Yours is way too big." She said without turning to face him.

"Later, Evans!"

Lily was still fuming when she reached her compartment. Stupid, arrogant, self-centered, womanizing, conceited…

"Lily!"

Lily's train of thought was cut off by short blond hair. Alice threw herself onto Lily, crushing her. When Alice pulled back, her blue eyes were sparkling with excitement. She had something she wanted to say, badly, but she was waiting for everyone to get here.

The compartment door opened. Lily turned, hoping it was the rest of her friends coming to join Alice and her. No such luck.

Standing in the doorway were her worst nightmares.

"Potter, Black. Get out of our compartment before I hex you to the next decade. Hello, Remus."

"Easy, Evans. We just want to chat. That okay, Alice." James said.

Alice blushed while Lily rolled her eyes.

James, Sirius, and Remus sat down.

"So, how was your summer?" Remus asked.

"Great. You?" Lily replied.

Remus shrugged. "Okay."

Sirius withdrew from his bag a small bundle of cloth.

"What's that?" Lily asked, truly curious.

"I found it." Sirius said. Inside the cloth was a broken time-turner. The gold glinted, and the sand was grated into the cloth.

"Black, don't even think about playing with that. Something could go very wrong." Lily said urgently.

"Like what? This?" Sirius blew some of the sand around, but he also caught the cloth. The cloth slid out of his hand, and they all watched horrified as the time-turner fell to the ground.

BANG! A cloud of white smoke filled the compartment.

Lily coughed. "What did you do now, Sirius Black?"

"Me? I didn't do anything."

"Yes, you did."

Lily aimed a kick at him but caught Remus instead. He yelped.

"Sorry, Remus."

The smoke cleared.

"Where is all out stuff?" Alice said. They looked around. It was just them and, thankfully, their clothes. Automatically James searched his pocket for his wand. He sighed in relief as his fingers touched the warm wood.

Sirius lifted the blinds on the compartment door a sliver. "Oi, Prongs! Prongs, I see you."

"Where?" Everyone asked simultaneously. There was a scuffle as they all crowded around the door.

"There." Sirius pointed to a boy sporting extremely mess black hair. He was talking to a girl with bushy brown hair and a tall boy with vivid red hair.

"I don't think that's James." Remus said as they caught sight of the boy's face. His nose was shorter, and his features were slightly changed. His eyes were the biggest difference though. They were bright green.

"What are you talking about, Moony? Of course that's Jamsie boy."

"No, he's not." Lily said. This was one of the first time she wasn't yelling at James and Sirius. "Explain why he is not with you, Sirius."

Sirius didn't have a reply to that.

James pulled out his wand and muttered a spell under his breath.

"What are you doing?" Lily snapped.

"Eavesdropping. I want to know what is going on here."

For once Lily didn't argue.

Within moments the five could hear the conversation.

"-did Slughorn want?" The girl with bushy brown hair asked.

"Just wanted to have lunch with a couple of people. They are all related to some famous people except for Ginny." The James look-alike said.

"'Course he wanted you there, didn't he. Who wouldn't?" The red-haired boy said. "The-Boy-Who-Lived and all. You're more famous the all those people put together. The only person stupid enough to believe that he is better known than you is Lockhart and look where that got him."

"Now I really want to know what is going on." James said. "The-Boy-Who-Lived?" The rest nodded in agreement.

"Look who it is. Potty and the Weasel." A cold, drawling voice said outside their compartment. They all turned to the speaker. His hair was white-blond with a pale, pointed face. Two giants flanked him.

"What do you want, Malfoy." The brown haired girl snapped.

"Since when is a Mudblood good enough to talk to me like an equal?"

Both of the boys stood with their wands out. "Take it back, Malfoy!" The James clone yelled.

The girl grabbed both of their arms and said to the boy, "Harry, no! He's not worth it." She turned to Malfoy. "And to answer your question: never. That's a job for the cockroaches. Now get out of here before I hex the living daylights out of you." The girl pulled out her wand and pointed it directly at Malfoy's face.

Malfoy attempted to sneer but failed. "Watch yourself, Mudblood."

The girl slammed the door in his face while the other two boys roared with laughter.

"That was awesome, Hermione! Did you see his face?" The red-head grinned.

"Thanks, Ron."

James and Sirius were also laughing as the five sat back in their seats.

Lily kept them on track. "We have to get to Dumbledore. He will know what to do."

"I agree with you, Lily, but how are we supposed to do that. Someone might recognize us." Sirius said.

Lily rolled her eyes. "Disillusionment Charms, of course."

When the train stopped Alice cast the spell and they slipped of the train and into the gates.

So how was it? Good? Okay? Horrible? I only have one word to say. REVIEW! (please?) The more reviews I get then the faster I will update because I want to know if people like my story.

I just love the Harry Potter fics so I attempted one myself.
