*the next day*
You sat up and stretched. Across the room you saw that Spike was wide awake.
"Time difference" Spike explained.
You nodded. That had been a problem when you first arrived in the UK.
"Spike, why are you here" you asked firmly.
Just then James started to stir.
"I'll tell you later" whispered Spike.
You grabbed your pillow and whacked James over the head with it. He grumbled and sat on the floor.
You then crept over to Sirius. As you whacked him he said
"What'sthebigidea" and rolled out of bed.
"Every damn time" Sirius grumbled as he sat up. You proceeded onto Peter then gently shook Remus awake, kissing his cheek as he sat up.
"Good Morning Marauders" you announced like a newsreader.
"Can I ask, why do you call yourselves the Marauders" asked Spike.
"It was Minnie's idea actually" said Peter.
*flashback*
"No we're not calling ourselves the snapback squad, Merlin Peter" said Remus exasperatedly.
"It's better than James and the Potters" argued Peter.
"I have a suggestion, what about the meme team" said Sirius.
"Good idea Sirius-" James started to say.
"I am not referring to myself as a member of 'the meme team'" you scoffed.
"What about the banter band" suggested James.
"James please" sighed Remus, facepalming.
Just then Professor McGonagall walked past.
"What nonsense are you Marauders up to now" she asked, winking.

"McGonagall is the scary one right" asked Spike.
"Yeah that's her" said James.
"Prongs, she isn't scary, just firm" you scoffed.
"She gave me detention first week Lovelle" said Sirius.
"That's because you're an idiot padfoot" said Remus.
"Piss off Moony" grumbled Sirius.
"Ok what's with the nicknames" asked Spike.
"Our patronuses" said James quickly.
"And Anigmagus forms" you said.
The other four Marauders looked at you as if you were crazy.
"What, he's my cousin, we can trust him" you said.
"I'm guessing you're illegal Anigmagi then" concluded Spike.
"I'm not" mumbled Remus.
"No you're a werewolf" said Spike. You looked at him, you'd never mentioned that detail.
"Yn, did you tell him" asked Remus looking betrayed.
"Nah nah, scars, comfort food, not to mention the rest of you are Anigmagi" said Spike.
"Spike, since when do you have a brain" you asked.
"I love magical creatures-though werewolves are really just normal people-anyways I hope to be a magizoologist" said Spike shrugging.
You nodded, fair enough.
"Er I have a confession to make" mumbled Spike.
Slowly he morphed into a large, part kneazle ginger cat. The cat morphed back into Spike.
"So Uh yeah, I got expelled from Snakebinder Academy because I was an illegal Anigmagus, I registered then Dumbledore offered me a spot at Hogwarts" Spike explained.
"Spike! You. Should. Have. Told. Me." You said, whacking him with your pillow.
"Sorry nn, I was worried you'd think badly of me, I have a criminal record after all" said Spike.
"Oh Spike, I'll stick by you through thick and thin, family is forever" you said, hugging your clueless cousin.
"Oh and by the way, your nickname's Crookshanks" you informed Spike.
