"Them damn Aurors...gonna be the end of us..."Mr. Evans
said. The 17 year old girl next to him merely nodded.
"I agree father."She said, her face hidden by the cloak she
wore.
"You are scheduled to get the Dark Mark on Saturday."He
said, and the girl was silent. She bowed her head slightly, then turned and
walked off.
"Yeah, he says Im getting my mark on Saturday."The girl said, leaning back in her chair. "Wow Lils, I have to wait 'till master says I can."The girl next to her said. She was at least 18 and had the whitest blonde hair Lily had ever seen. Lily, on the other hand, had flaming red hair. But, her favorite part about her was her eyes. Why? Back when her father braught her to first see Voldemort, he had commented on her eyes.
"Come on!"The guard barked. A skiny boy wiht messy black hair, no older than 19 stood up and walked past him, shooting a glare at him that could freeze time. "Out there."The guard said, and pointed out where several men were already sitting on large rocks, or on the ground. The boy walked in and the door slammed shut behind him. "James!?"Someone asked, and James felt the air squeezed out of his lungs. "Dad, let go."James sputtered. His father let go of him, and led him over to a corner, where a large group of men sat around a large circle drawn in the dirt. "Death Eaters got a bunch of new recruits, some of them no older than yours."A man said to James's father, who nodded. "Ones younger than 'im."Another man said. "It doesnt matter, we have to get out of here."James's father said.James leaned against the wall, letting the conversation slide into the background as his thoughts roamed. He already knew how to get out...but he had to go himself.
That night, Lily was walking around an apparating station, in normal wizarding robes. A large group of wizards next to her apparated in and she quickly backed out of their way. As she headed for the door, someone apparated, and thats all she knew, for she fell backwards, only to be caught by the same person who's knocked her over. "Get off!"She snapped, pulling away. "Sorry."The boy appologized. "Hey your a-" "GET 'IM! THERE HE IS!"Came several loud voices, the boy ran off, and Lily followed out of sheer curiosity. They quickly outran the guards, and when the boy stopped, Lily crashed into him, sending them both flying into a small river. Lily wiped the water from her eyes, then saw she was in the boys arms. "I told you to get off!"She snapped, pulling away again. "Me!? You fell on me!"He yelled back. "Well if you wouldnt just stop dead-" He clamped his hand over her mouth as they heard the guards walk by. "Oh, come on."She said, pulling him to his feet. "Ive got a hiding place."She said, then walked off into the woods. James, desperate for a hiding place, followed.
"So, whats your name?"The boy asked. "Lily. Yours?"She asked. "James."He answered. Lily nodded. They walked in silence for a few minutes. "So...are you a....an auror? Or on our side at least?"James asked. "I dont know, I havent really taken a place in this war."Lily lied, shrugging. James nodded slightly.The silence took over again.
A week later, James had been carefully hidden, with Lily bringing him food. They became rather good friends, for people who were supposed to be enemies.
"James!"Lily called, walking into his hideout with the basket of food she always brought. She was holding the basket in her left hand, since her right arm still hurt from the drak mark that she had gotten earlier in the day. "I heard a scream from your house. Is everything ok?"James asked, rushing over to her. "Oh...yeah....I just um....tripped."She lied. "Oh good."James said, hugging her. She handed him the basket and he smiled. "I have to go...I was supposed to help my dad catch some more.....uh....I have to help him. Bye!"She said quickly and turned to leave. James grabbed her arm and she gasped in pain, pulling her arm away. "Lily. Is something wrong that you arent telling me?"James asked. "No no...of course not!"Lily lied. She felt bad, for lying so much. "Lily, you can tell me. Im a escaped prisoner, who am I going to tell?"He asked, chuckling. He took her hand, then pulled her sleeve back. The dark mark glistened on her arm, and she quickly pulled back. James stared at her at a loss for words. "Your.....your.....your...."He panicked, running to the other side of the hideout."How do I know this isnt a trap!!! How do I know your not going to turn me into your master!"He bellowed. Lily walked over to him. "Its not like that! I like you. Your not like those other Aurors. We could be friends....no one has to know."Lily pleaded. "I cant....your.....one of them."They both said the last three words together. "But James! Im different from them!"She said, reaching for his hand. "How many Lily?"He asked. "How many what?"Lily asked. "HOW MANY OF MY FRIENDS AND FAMILY DID YOU KILL I WANT TO KNOW!"He yelled, flying into a rage. He grabbed Lily by the troat, slamming her against a wall. "I JUST GOT THE MARK TODAY! THAT WAS THE SCREAM I SWEAR IVE NEVER KILLED ANYONE!"Lily screamed back, tears flowing freely down her cheek. James's anger seemed to shrink and he released her. "Im sorry..."He said, backing away from her. She dropped her knees, a hand on the wall, trying to regain her breath. "Im really sorry Lily...I just....cant belive your one of them. You seemed too...too...nice.... to be one of them."He said, putting a hand on her shoulder. She flinched and he pulled his hand back. "I'll go now."Lily said, jumping up and running out the door. James sank into a chair, running his hands through his hair.
"Fight it."Lilys father hissed. Lily gritted her teeth, pushing against the blinding white light that was trying so hard to knock her back. "Listen to your father...hold it back...."Voldemort said, grinning. The white blast exploded and dissappeared, and Lily dropped to her knees, crying from the effort. Voldemort turned and her father did the same, as they walked away. "Her powers are extraordianry."Voldemort said. Lilys father smiled. "Thank you master."He said, bowing his head slightly.Voldemort walked off and her father went back into the house, that was unseeable to the training room.
Meanwhile, Lily was still sitting on the floor of the room, her hand clutched to her chest as she breathed hard. "I was watching."Came a voice. Lily turned and saw James standing there. "Your supposed to be hiding! If anyone finds you here...."Lily trailed off. "Dont worry about me."He said, holding up a hand.
The next month was very very uneventful. Lilys training increased, and Lily and James's friendship grew. Lily had fallen in love with him, but James didnt know. She did her best to hide her feelings. Who ever heard of a death eater loving an Auror anyways? Lily knew it would never work....or would it? ____________________________________________________________________________ __ Woooo...a NOT cliffy. *gasps and smacks self repeatedly* Sorry I havent been working on Cos or LT, but its hard.
