Meanwhile, the little exchange between Lily and Snape did not go unnoticed. James, who was also heading towards the carriages with his friends, also noticed the reluctant exchange between the two, and made a mental note, to find out what that was about. As both Lily and James settled into their resepctive carriages with their friends, they both had the same thought, this was going to be a very interesting year.

"So, either of you have any idea about the big 'welcome back' prank we're going to do this year?" Sirius asked Remus and James. Peter usually did not have any ideas about any of the pranks. He only listened and volunteered to help out, so Sirius ignored him. But he didn't notice Peter's face darken when he ignored him.

"Can't," said James, pointing to his badge, "Remember?" As Remus nodded approvingly that James was taking his new responsibility seriously, Sirius's mouth dropped open in horror.

"Can't? Can't! What are you bloody talking about?" he yelped. James and Remus rolled their eyes and Sirius continued, "We've had a welcome back pranks since 2nd year every year! We can't stop now, not in our final year!"

"I've turned over a new leaf Sirius. I've decided to try to be good and responsible this year. Besides, I think we should retire the pranks. I think we've done everything that can possibly be done. We need to get serious now. This is our final year, we need to think about life after Hogwarts."

The friends all fell silent as there thoughts turned to the situation that the Wizarding World was facing. Peter's however were taking a very different turn from that of his friends.

He nervously rubbed his left shoulder and flushed when he found Remus's scrutinizing eyes on him. "Are you okay, Pete?" Remus asked with concern.

"Yes - yes I am," stuttered Peter, "I just hurt my shoulder over the summer but I'm fine now."

"You want me to take a look at it?" asked James, "I could heal it for you before we reach the school."

"No!" said Peter panicking, "I mean - I mean, no thank you. I'm fine."

"Ookay," said James, his eyebrows raised.

"I still think we should do a prank," Sirius whined from the corner.

"Alright Sirius, but nothing that will cause people too much humiliation. Just something for fun," said James.

"But how about Slytherins?" Sirius asked excitedly.

"Hmm...." said James, but when he saw Remus's raised eyebrows, sighed and replied, "Alright alright, no Slytherins."

"You guys suck," Sirius said.

"If you cared about me at all, you would understand," James replied in a very Remus like tone that immediately caused Sirius to shut up.

Eventually, the long procession of carriages reached the school and stopped in front of the large entrance door. It was opened by Professor McGonagall and she ushered them into the entrance hall.

"The Sorting Ceremony will start momentarily. Take your seats in the Great Hall and make yourselves look dignified and respectable for the first years," she said, her eyes falling on the ruffled looks of the Marauders and some other students. Sirius sniggered and James couldn't help but join in. Them, looking dignified and respectable? What a joke! Lily shot them an exasperated look and turned back to listen to Professor McGonagall with attentive eyes. Soon, they all went into the Great Hall and took their seats at their respective tables, waiting for the first years.

Slowly, the noise level in the Great Hall started to rise as more students filed in and took their places. James looked around and caught random conversations with "I hope Mc Gonagall is easy on us this year" and "I wonder what the Sorting Hat has to say this year". Soon enough however, much to Sirius' relief, for he was starving at this stage, the procession of first years made their way into the Hall, following an indomitable looking Professor Mc Gonagall, who held the Sorting Hat in her hands.

I think this is a good place to end the story.😊 Love the descriptions you used Shelley. It really feels like Hogwarts.👏 Great job to everyone who participated!⭐️ It was really a lot of fun reading and writing! But now let's have a new Game of the Week.

I'll stick all of our posts to this thread in a new separate thread as one story so that others can read this one-shot fanfic alltogether.
