-1Hi guy I'm back writing! Thank to everyone for reviewing my last stories. This first chapter is split in a few different parts.

Disclaimer- I DON'T OWN HARRY POTTER OR ANYTHING RELATED TO IT. AS MUCH AS I WISH IT I'M NOT J.K ROWLING.

Chapter 1 1/4

Summer vacation for most kids was their favorite time of the year. For her though… it was a different story. Only I knew what really happened at her house. She didn't tell me. She told no one. You would never guess what really went on looking at her. I had seen it first hand though. The memory was so clear I could see it in my head, I remembered the screaming, the tears, her face, her fathers face…

"Lily, Lily" I shouted running after her. She turned.

"Um, oh hi Remus." she said hesitantly. I could see her putting on her fake smile.

"My mum wanted to know if you wanted to come over for dinner. We're having chicken." Remus said hopefully.

"No, I'm sorry Remus my parents are having some important people over for supper and they want me to serve… I mean be there." Lily said.

"Are you sure I could have my mum come over and talk to them." Remus said, hopefully she would say yes so my mum could see how bad it was for her.

"LILY!" Screamed a voice. We both turned around. Lily's father was standing on the porch. Lily's eyes grew big with fear.

"Oh great," she muttered. "Look Remus I'll, I'll see you later." She ran to her father, who pushed her in the house. He glared at Remus for a moment and slammed the door. Remus ran to the Evans' house. Lily's bedroom was in the basement there was a little peak in the musty white curtains where you could see in. The glass was also cracked and thin. Lily's father's voice came thought clearly.

"What were you doing I thought I told you to not go near the neighbors." her father screamed at her between kicking her in the stomach, "now get up you insolent girl. You'll be serving tonight. Get dressed and eat you dinner. The Docherty's will be here at 7:15. Be in the kitchen at 6:30. No talking to them, be obedient and do show signs of being hurt, you will act happy and content. If you don't things will happen and you won't go back to that bloody school." He kicked her again and left the room. Remus got up and snuck away.

Chapter 1 2/4

"What were you doing I thought I told you to not go near the neighbors." her father screamed at her between kicking her in the stomach, "now get up you insolent girl. You'll be serving tonight. Get dressed and eat you dinner. The Docherty's will be here at 7:15. Be in the kitchen at 6:30. No talking to them, be obedient and do show signs of being hurt, you will act happy and content. If you don't things will happen and you won't go back to that bloody school." He kicked her again and left the room. Lily got up. Her stomach was killing her. She took off her shirt and looked in her small mirror hanging on her wall. There were fiery red splotches over her skin, where her father's foot had made contact. She ran her fingers over her ribs, she was sure at least one of them had been broken, Madam Pomfrey would be able to fix that. Somewhere in the big house the old grandfather clock struck 6. She had thirty minutes to get dressed, hide her cuts and bruises, eat and look presentable. Lily got out her "good" dress. Which was dark green color with a velour look to it. It had an ivory collar with ivory flower shaped lace at the waist. She zipped the back and went to the kitchen.

"Lily here's you dinner." said her mother. Lily looked down at the plate her mother handed her on it was half of a burned grilled cheese sandwich. "Your father wants dinner served at 7:30 sharp. Be good, we don't want to make your father mad."

"Yeah mum." lily mumbled as her mum left the kitchen. Makrouhi the "real maid" came in the kitchen, she took lily's sandwich and threw it way.

"Lily dear what do you want for dinner?" Makrouhi asked.

"I really don't care Dad's clients will be here soon and your focus should be on them." said lily now saddened because she didn't have anything to eat.

"Don't be silly child. You are becoming way to thin. If you don't eat something you won't be allowed out of the kitchen. Now what would you like to eat?" she asked. Makrouhi knew Lily would have to eat something now.

"A Peanut better sandwich is fine." Lily said. Chef Leon heard her request and made her a quick sandwich.

At 7:15 the there was a knock on the door. The Docherty's had arrived.

"Good evening Mr. and Mrs. Docherty, the Evans are waiting for you in the dining room. Please follow me." Lily said. They followed her to the dining room.

"Welcome, I hope the ride over was enjoyable." said lily's father, "Girl we are ready for our drinks." Lily went to the kitchen. It was well know that if you had dinner at the Evans's house you would be treated to the Evans's homemade white wine. Lily brought back 4 wine glasses. Gave one to every one poured wine and went back to the kitchen. Lily helped Makrouhi prepare the steak and kidney pie. The meal was finished cooking until 7:45 which was 15 minutes later than her father wanted. Lily knew she was going to pay for that later. They brought out the plates and set them in there places. After a few more glasses of wine and once the rice pudding was gone, the Docherty's went home.

"GIRL YOU SERVED DINNER LATE I TOLD YOU 7:30. DO YOU LIKE MAKING ME LOOK LIKE AN IDIOT?" Lily father screamed as soon as the door had shut. Lily shook her head. "WHAT?"

"N…no father." lily stuttered.

"GO DOWN TO YOUR ROOM." screamed her father, lily ran to her room and quietly shut the door.

"Seth it wasn't her fault maybe you should go a little easier on her." said lily's mother uncertainly.

"Mary if I go easy on that girl she will never learn respect." Seth said a little quieter to his wife.

"But father why do you want her respect she's freak." sneered Petunia who had just walked in the door after her date with Vernon,

"Petunia go to your room" Mary said quietly.

"I have no time for this right now. The girl will stay in her room until breakfast tomorrow then she will make breakfast. I will have a peaceful day on the golf course then I will come home to a perfect steak dinner." Said Seth taking control again.

Chapter 1 3/4

"Remy honey your home late. Go wash up, dinners almost done." said his mother standing over a pot full of potatoes.

"But mum lily…" said Remus trying to catch his breath.

"No buts go wash up, dinners almost done we can talk then." Remus ran up stairs and washed his hands and face. When he got back down stairs his mum was just putting the chicken on the two plates.

"Now Remus sweetie what do you want to tell me?" his mother asked.

"Lily's dad beats her. I just saw it happen." he said seriously.

'Remus that's not funny. I expected better from you. I know you don't like lily's parents but…"

"No mum I'm telling the truth. Really, her dad was kicking her. And her face is covered with bruises. Mum you have to believe me." Remus pleaded. His mum got up and looked though the window to the Evans's house.

"Very well I'll talk to Mr. Potter about sending some one over there to check on things. Yes. Now they have company so they won't do anything to her. And the Potter's are probably out for dinner I'll floo over there after dinner. Now eat up."

"Mum the Potter's are probably home floo now." said Remus impatiently looking through the window for the millionth time that night.

"Very well we'll floo. Come on." They grabbed the powder and went to the Potter's. They stumbled into the potter's fireplace.

"Allison, Remus what ever are you doing here." asked James's father getting up from the lounger in the corner of the cozy living room.

"My son says that one of out neighbors abuses his daughter." said Allison.

"Well I really can't do anything but tell the other minister which probably won't very far unless the family is a wizarding one." said Mr. Potter looking concerned.

"She's a muggle-born. Please Mr. Potter." said Remus. James gave Remus a weird look.

"I can send someone over there tonight if I can reach someone. Tomorrow at the very latest otherwise. What year is she in?" asked Mr. Potter.

"7th" said Remus. Hoping James and Sirius would figure out who it was so he wouldn't have to tell them.

"Who is she?" asked James. Remus gave James a look.

"Evans" he said simply.

"What! But, she, I thought. Dad you have to help." screamed James jumping out of his chair.

"You know her?" asked James's mother.

"Lily Evans the one he's been talking about since his first year. Miss perfect Evans." said Sirius.

"Remus did anyone see you over at the house? Who was all there?" asked Mr. Potter.

"No one saw me I was by the window in the bushes. When she was getting hurt her dad was there and her mom and some other people who work in the house. They had some important people over from dinner from what she said." said Remus.

"Wait, when did you talk to her last?" asked Mr. Potter.

"Tonight just before her dad screamed at her to get in the…house" he said slowly, "I just want to help I asked her to come for dinner to get away from her parents but … no I'm, I'm so sorry"

"Remus dear it wasn't your fault." said his mother.

"It's no one's fault but lily's dad's. I need to go to the ministry. That girl needs to get out of there. Mary set get the guest bedroom ready. And we'll need food. James get floo madam Pomfrey she'll need to be over here. What's her address?" Ordered Mr. Potter.

Chapter 1 4/4

"Madison I hope you don't have anything planed for tonight." Said Mr. Potter walking into his office.

"If I did you'd probably make me cancel." said his sectary.

"Got that right. There's a girl at 758 maple drive in surrey getting abused by her father. We're going in there tonight. I want the paper work done so there won't be any complications. He apperated to the Lupin's house and walked to the Evan's. He knocked on the door.

"Can I help you?" asked lily.

"Yes are the Evan's here?" asked Mr. Potter.

"Um yes, um come in." lily let him in the house. "Please stay here," lily went in to the living room, "Father there is someone here to see you. He is in the study." Her father got up and she led him to the study.

"Girl, leave," ordered he father.

"Mr. Evans this involves her." said Mr. Potter standing up.

"What did that ungrateful girl do know?" asked Seth.

"Sir I'm the minister of magic. You are being charged with physically abuse on your daughter."

"Did the girl say that? She is always making up stories." said Seth.

"Sir we have substantial evidence. Lily will need to come with us and you will need to be in court next Tuesday at 10:30a.m in court room A. You will no longer have custody of Lily and you may be sent to jail. We will be moderating everything you do until you go to court. Lily would you go grab you things, that includes your Hogwarts stuff, you won't be coming back." said Mr. Potter.

"You can't do that she is mine. You haven't the right." said Seth grabbing lily's forearm tightly.

"Did you not hear, I'm from the ministry. I have someone doing the same thing at your ministry. She will be taken away from here no matter what you say. Now let go of her so she can get her stuff." said Mr. Potter. Her father let go of her and she go her trunk. "We will my going to my house. You can stay there until you get better and go to the leaky cauldron until Hogwarts or you can just stay at my house until you go to Hogwarts if James and Sirius don't bug you to much. But you can decide that later. Good evening Mr. Evans." Lily and Mr. potter apperated to the Potter's mansion. Lily collapsed into Mr. Potter's arms.

"JAMES, SIRIUS GET OUT HERE!" he yelled. Two boys ran outside. "Carry her in the house. I have to file some custody papers. Watch her head. Are the Lupin's still here?" James nodded. His dad apperated. They took lily in the house where they passed Remus who followed them up the stairs. When they entered the guest bedroom both mums and Madam Pomfrey gasped.

"Set her down gently boys." said Madam Pomfrey as she moved her wand over lily in difficult movements casting healing charms. James's mum was mixing a potion and with Ms. Lupin's help were coaxing it down lily's throat. After a few minutes of work lily started to stir.

"W…what h…hap…pened?" groaned lily, sitting up in the bed.

"You collapsed after you apperated here. I'm Mary potter, I believe you know my son James." she pointed over at the 3 boys in the corner.

"How are you feeling lily?" asked Remus timidly.

"A little weak but my ribs don't hurt anymore." said lily weakly.

"We fixed them, and healed most of your cuts and bruises. You have some nasty scars on your back thought that won't go away. Are you hungry? Because I can go make you something." said Mary. Lily shook her head. "Alright dear why you change in to you pajamas and try to get some sleep. I have some dreamless sleep and calming potion here if you need it."

"Thank you Mrs. Potter."

"If you need anything James and Sirius are 2 doors down and my bedroom is right above here. Do be afraid to call."

"Thank you." said Lily.

"Come on boys, good night Lily" they all left. Lily got out of bed, changed in to her pajamas, took the calming potion and went to sleep in a real bed for the first time since summer started.

Ok there's the first chapter. I hope it didn't go to fast. I've only been able to work on it on the weekends. I tried reading it over so hopefully there won't be too many mistakes. As always if you want to be a Beta Reader I need one. Please review don't be to mean. I'll give you a cookie, really my mom just made a whole bunch!
