TW AND CW: light to heavy cursing (VERY HEAVY)

"What in Helga-?" Ana leaned down to pick up the contents of her bag, which had mysteriously spilled out in the middle of the corridor.

As she picked them up, Ana felt a hand grab her's and pull her into an empty classroom.

"WHO ARE YOU!" she shrieked, looking around for the seemingly invisible source.

"It's just us, you daft dimbo," scoffed James' voice.

Ana whipped around to the source of the voice. "Ugh. You and your stupid invisibility cloak."

James, Sirius, and Peter pulled off the cloak.

"How long have you known?" asked Sirius suddenly.

"Known what?" asked Ana in confusion.

"Known about Remus!" said Peter nervously.

"What do you mean?" asked Ana, now slightly nervous herself, hoping that didn't mean what she thought they meant.

"What he is," said James, keeping his face tight.

"I don't know what you're talking about," Ana said coolly, making her way to the door.

"An, we're just asking if you know!" sighed Sirius. 

"Fine," Ana groaned. "I know. Happy? But his condition doesn't change who he is a single bit, alright? He is still happy and wonderful and sweet and kind Remus. If you go for him, I will fuckin' murder you."

James held out his hands. "Whoa, there. We didn't say anything like that. We just meant that if you knew more about it, we would be able to help him."

Ana's expression loosened and became soft again. "Oh. But there's no cure to lycanthropy."

Sirius grinned. "There isn't a cure."

"But we can still make it easier for him!" piped up Peter.

Ana raised an eyebrow. "I'm listening."

A/n: now guys let's pretend I didn't totally mess up the plot because apparently it takes more than a year to become an animagus and they're doing it in less than a year so let's say the process takes 3 months alright? EHHEHHEHEHE JUI OUT

"We looked up how to become an Animagus," said James, grinning. "And we can pull it off. And we can keep him company during his time of the month."

Ana blinked. "That makes it sound like he's on his period."

Sirius' face blanched white.

Ana snorted. "Forget that. How'd you guys even find out?"

"He skips school a couple days before the full moon and comes back covered in scrapes and scars," said James, looking at the ground. "It's a bit of intuition, honestly."

"Didn't know you had any of that," said Ana, impressed.

"So we're all becoming Animaguses?" asked Sirius.

"Not me," said Ana with a grin. "I don't have to."

The Marauders' expressions turned steely.

"So you're not helping Remus?" asked Sirius with a bit of a dark tone.

"'Course I am," said Ana. "Just a different way. A couple days back, I found out that I got this thing where I can turn into any animal I like. At will."

The Marauders turned red with embarrassment.

"Oh," said James simply. "But like... can you show us? Do you know how to do it yet?"

Ana scrunched up her eyebrows. "I haven't tried it before. Maybe..."

She closed her eyes and focused on the first animal that popped into her mind. 

Wolf, wolf, wolf, she thought.

Ana described the features of a wolf to herself in deep detail.

Bushy tail, thick grey fur, large, long snouts...

Picturing the image of a wolf in front of her, Ana could feel herself just... fitting into that image.

She could also feel herself dropping to the floor dramatically.

"That went well," said Sirius loudly.

Ana opened her eyes.

The three Marauders were standing over her, blinking.

"You're kinda sleeping on the floor right now," noted James.

Ana tried to stand up, but her legs wobbled dangerously.

Sirius, Peter, and James jumped forward to help her up.

"Easy," said James. "You kinda morphed into a wolfy shape for like 20 seconds or so. Then you popped back into regular Ana."

"That's gonna take some practice," Ana wheezed out. "And stamina."

"You're as weak as a goat," piped up Peter.

Ana blinked. "I don't know how to feel about that sentence," she admitted.

"As weak as a fish?" suggested Sirius.

"No, a squirrel," corrected James.

"How 'bout I use my epic Transfiguration skills and turn you all into those things right now?" asked Ana, glaring at them annoyedly.

That shut them up.

"So," continued Ana, clapping her hands together. "Who's ready to ditch three classes to become Animaguses for our bestie?"

Hope you guys enjoyed my messed up plotline! :D

Love, Jui W.
