'The ground is so bloody uncomfortable…' James Potter shifted slightly on the rough surface. 'Wait, what?' He shot up, stumbling a little as his head spun. 'Where am I?' Everything was blurry and unfocused as he looked around the unfamiliar place – his glasses were gone. After realising this, he frantically searched his robes for his wand and sighed in relief when he pulled it out of his pocket. Now that he was slightly calmer, he took another moment to examine the place. It was getting dark, yet he could still make out the shapes of gravestones. 'Why am I in a graveyard?' He wondered. All of this was forgotten when he saw bright red – Lily. Her hair was the only splash of colour in the area. He rushed over to her place on the ground, shaking her roughly.
"LILY! LILY WAKE UP! No… you can't be dead. Please. LILY!" James was sobbing at this point, desperately searching his wife for signs of life. He held her tightly and begged her to wake up.
A hand grabbed his wrist, and with a gasp, Lily Evans woke up for the first time in fourteen years. Neither let go as the couple sat together, in a dark place and without a clue of what happened. It would all be okay, as long as they were together.
"Uhm, excuse me?" A young boy, who couldn't be older than 17 looked down at them. "Sorry, just… I'm a bit lost. I go to Hogwarts, but I was brought here and, well, I don't suppose you've seen a cup? Or Harry? He was with me except, I think I blacked out." He said this all very fast, shifting from side to side anxiously.
James had to clear his throat before speaking. "I'm afraid we're just as lost as you mate."
"But we can take you to Hogwarts. We have to pay a visit to someone there anyway." Lily spoke up for the first time. Dumbledore would be able to explain what was going on right? She wanted answers and he would be sure to have them.
When the boy nodded his head gratefully the couple stood up and dusted themselves off. Lily held out her arm to the boy before disapparating from the spot. James was quick to follow.
They arrived a fair bit away from the castle. "We'll have to walk the rest of the way I'm afraid." And James, Lily and Cedric began the long walk home.
So this is just a quick introduction to the story, what do you think? I know it's short it's just to get it started.
