The Secrets Of Lily Potter

Prologue:
Secrets lie here

.

.

.

Her story begins long after stories written for us ends. The story starts in an attic filled with anecdotes hidden with a thick layer of dust that hides the past. The footsteps towards this attic are heavy but will the stories hidden in the thick layers of dust be even heavier to walk towards?

The darkness that filled the attic in which Lily Luna Potter and Teddy Lupin were
standing in was eliminated quickly by two wands and a synced 'Lumos' but bathing in light wasn't making it easier to stand here.

"I've never been here you know – thanks Lils for following me up" Teddy said frowning in the dark.

"Don't worry Teddy, I'm sure James or Victorie would've come too" Lily replied calmly and gazed across the room to find something to get herself interested in.

"Victorie? Not likely" Teddy paused when he stepped onto something rather clumsily. "and James has those boggart issues, really Lils… thanks"

"Teddy, we're family" Lily assured Teddy for the eleventh time that day only and they stood there with wands held high and eyes fixed on the relics from the past.

The word family hurt Teddy gravely; the loss of his grandmother was the reason why they were going to spend their afternoon in this attic cleaning. Despite being thirty years old Teddy Lupin looked like the lost child Lily remembered from an especially shameful memory from her childhood when she asked her dad, Harry Potter, why Teddys father weren't taking care of him.

"Should we start?" Teddy asked.

Lily returned from her memories. "You first"

The small attic was filled with endless piles of damaged books, torn furniture and boxes stacked up to the sealing. Between coughing up her lounges and organizing the mess the attic became during the years of neglecting they seemed to be smiling both for the first time since Andormedas death. Teddy even laughed when he found one of Andormedas old hats with wild blue flowers on, it took Lily three minutes of pleading before Teddy put it on to her great amusement. The cleaning returned quickly from boring to amusing to exiting when Teddy spotted a black chest by massive oak behind a shelf with old DADA books. The chest had silver details and Runes inscriptions carved into the massive wood.

"Look at this Lily" Teddy whispered as if they were in great danger. Lily being a soon to be Auror quickly whipped her wand to prepare herself for anything that might be dark magic, or as she would put it herself, challenging magic.

"Careful Teddy, you never know what could be hidden" Lily whispered back and pointed her wand steadily. "Anything could be hidden"

Teddy chuckled very unfitting and the spooky magic in the attic was broken. "You never took Accient Runes I assume Lily Potter?"

"Gordrics sword Teddy, it's Lily Luna and no, I didn't bother with Professor Grugins"

"You should have bothered you know. 'Do not fear intruder but be aware - for evil is not hidden but secrets lie here. Property of Remus Lupin' is what it says" Teddy replied with a finger following the Runes ingraved to the chest.

"Oh – I'm sorry it's just… I thought". The redness across Lilys face was hidden in the darkness but slowly her face matched the redness only found in Weasley hair.

Teddy chuckled most inappropriate again and stroke his finger towards the chests lock and it clicked in an instance to reveal its content. "She knew that he knew" was all Teddy whispered and somewhere Lily assumed that he spoke about his deceased father.

Teddy had a very emotional moment in front of the belongings of his father. The massive oak hid a few robes that were dressy, a wedding gown that belonged to his bride assumingly, a Lunascope that showed the moons phases, a few stacks of photos of Remus Lupin as a young boy with his friends though the ages, a very charming photo of the widely known Nymphadora Tonks and two books that were wrapped in thin silk.

"Much for secrets - look at your granddad, he looks just like Uncle Harry" Teddy said and shoved a stack of photos of a man that Lily could have mistaken for her own father.
Teddy and Lily laughed through the whole collection of anecdotes until Teddy removed the thin silk from the two books wrapped, the oldest book was about werewolves but the other book made Teddy gasp dramatically for air.

Lily felt the excitement rush along with the dramatic gasp. "What now Teddy?"

The air Teddy inhaled was blown back towards the book to reveal the words hidden by the dust history had laid on it. Lily Luna gasped too; there in smirk golden letters across a black, beaten book were a sentence with a name that she was quite familiar to.

Yes, the story begins here, long after those written for us ends but it's not my story to tell, not this time. You know what Merlin said about stories, don't you? Let me remind you, and I quote Merlin like many before me did. He said, "Stories that been heard are stories of great value but stories that have never echoed loudly are valuable antics". So there are two stories to be told or one really. It's Lily's story, and it begins here.
