Stranded

This is going to be the first story that I don't delete or try not too. I would love criticism so please review. Also let me know if I should keep going or stop. I'm never sure.

So far, it had been the longest summer vacation of her life. At first it started out great. Spending quality time with her mom and dad. They went to the beach, shopping and just plain talked. But then, something horrible happened. Her parents were murdered my Lord Voldemort's followers the Death Eaters.


It was a dark night, omnicent. Gloom hung in the air. Know one knowing why until... Two screams ...Two crashes... and a band of masked death eaters shooting out the front door... their sign hanging over her house illuminating the street.

They weren't home. Lily and her sister Petunia were out shopping at the time for their parents 34th wedding anniversary.

She was blamed by her because she was a "freak" and she went the that "freak school" Hogwarts. A couple of minutes after she was kicked out of her house her sister could no longer live in the same house as someone who was to blame for their parents death.

So there she was. Still not allowed to do magic for the next two weeks. Stranded. Plain and simple. She had know where to go except Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry and the term didn't begin for another 4 weeks!

Lily Evans was 16 going on 17. She had a nice figure, wavy auburn hair and these emerald green eyes that when you looked into them felt as though she should see down to the very depths of your soul. She was extraordinarily intelligent but today felt as if she was the most worthless and slowest person in the world. What was she suppose to do? Where was she suppose to go? Not knowing any of the answers to all her questions she just continued down the street with her trunk.

It was getting dark, the sun setting and still know where to go for Ms. Lily Evans. She had finally gotten to London her destination. As she slowly meandered down the cobblestone road she finally reached the empty out of order telephone booth, stepped in and dialed 55324 and was welcomed

into the Ministry of Magic.

" Now what do I do?" Lily thought. " I have nowhere to go and no one to be with. I am alone."

It was 5 o'clock so their were tons of workers around. She just didn't know any of them, that of course was a problem. She was petrified to say the least. Thoughts running in and out through her mind. Where am I going, Who am I going to be with ext.

As Lily's freak-out continued a man with bi spectacles and snowy white hair stood right behind her waiting in order not to worsen her panic attack. Eventually the tall man tapped her on the shoulder, she jumped, exactly what he thought she would do. Relief swept through her body. She was safe.
