Disclaimer: I don't own Harry Potter, surprise surprise…If I did it would be a wee bit different….but I do lay claim to my original character Lily…sorry she is mine
Summary: It's the end of HBP and Harry finds out a big secret…he's a twin. This story is about what happens after Dumbledore's death.
So with out any further ado….The Other Potter
"Go after them. Insure this is done as I instructed."
She grinned, "Yes My Lord," and she swept from the hall her dark skirts rustling behind her. As the door closed behind her a Death Eater fell into place behind her. She sighed slightly, "You know I don't need another shadow." She said without glancing at the Death Eater.
He chuckled, "You know me, I'm not about to let you go off alone. He will have people there and I couldn't let anything happen to you.
She grimaced, "Nonthal, I am no longer a child."
He just chuckled again and handed her her cloak, "I know dear, just call me sentimental if you must Lily."
She turned on her heel glowering up at him through bright green eyes her deep red hair whirling with her skirts, "I would not have been told to go if he didn't think I was capable of overseeing this."
Harold Nonthal smiled, "I know, shall we?"
She studied him for a moment then still frowning said, "We shall." And Nonthal took her arm and they apparated off.
They apparated right outside Borgin and Burkes. Lily led the way into the store and without sparing the old man a glance she walked through the cabinet and began speeding towards Hogwarts.
Lily waited quietly for Nonthal to follow. She only had to wait a little bit. Then without a word she swept from the room with Nonthal on her heel.
She walked quickly to the place that had been selected thankful that they did not meet anyone on the way. Before they got there loud noises of the battle could be heard.
Nonthal glanced at Lily, "This is why I came."
She made no response except to continue walking to the battle. Nonthal put a shield up around her and Lily walked calmly and unscathed to the star that assembly lead to the Astronomy tower. Nonthal Took her elbow so she could penetrate the barrier, for devoted as she was she did not have a dark mark. When they gained the top of the stairs Lily glanced around.
A smile creped onto her face and she walked right up behind Draco, who had not seen her. He spun around and a look of panic flitted through his eyes, Dumbledore, who was largely being ignored politely said, "Ah, Lily. So, you did survive."
Lily turned her gaze to him, "Excuse me," she said coolly.
Dumbledore smiled, "You survived. You've been missing for fifteen years. I must say this in the last place I would expect to see you."
"I have not been missing. I have been waiting is all," Lily said sizing up the old man.
"Hmm, yes, well where have you been then Lily?"
Lily studied him for a moment longer, "With Nonthal of course, waiting for My Lord to return."
Dumbledore chuckled, "So he's kept you, I wonder why he would do that."
"It hardly matters," Lily scoffed.
"Oh yes it does," Dumbledore breathed.
"Not to a man about to die," Lily responded icily.
Dumbledore studied her but Lily turned her attention back to Draco. "Draco," she purred, "Why is he still alive? Don't you have a job to do? He's not going to be happy that you are taking so long."
Draco's eyes flitted from Lily to Dumbledore he swallowed and stammered, "I…I…"
Lily narrowed her green eyes but before she could say anything the door behind her burst open.
Lily spun on the spot and Nonthal came into a position to protect her if needed. She studied the four Death Eaters that came through the door.
Nonthal eased slightly and moved away from Lily.
Her eyes slowly went from one Death Eater to another, none of them holding her gaze very long. Her eyes finally fell on the last Death Eater and a cold disgusted look flooded her face, "I was not aware a filthy beast was coming."
Fenrir Greyback twitched and his mouth twisted, but then he dropped his gaze for a moment then shifted his gaze to Dumbledore.
"Well done Draco...well done indeed..." one of the male Death Eaters said.
"Good Evening Amycus," Dumbledore said calmly, "And Alecto...how wonderful."
The woman twitched she seemed to have something to say but she flashed a glance at Lily and seemed to think better of it.
"And is that you Fenrir?" Dumbledore asked after silence had stretched for a moment.
"Absolutely," he glanced at Lily, "Are you pleased to see me too?"
"Not really," Dumbeldore said calmly, Lily allowed a small smile to creep onto her face, she could at least appreciate the old man's taste.
Fenrir grinned, "But I just love children...you know that Dumbledore."
Lily turned her gaze back to Fenrir and frowned, but he wasn't paying attention to her.
"You have developed a taste for blood that can't be satisfied during the full moon, unusual." Dumbledore said
"Yup, shocks you, eh, frightens you?"
"Well it does disgust me-" Dumbledore began, but Lily was growing tired of the conversation quickly
"Well of course it does" she said harshly, "Beasts like Fenrir disgust everyone."
Dumbledore looked at her and Fenrir glared at her. Lily narrowed her eyes and cocked an eyebrow. "What's that look for?" she asked in a dangerous voice.
Fenrir maintained his glare for a moment but then dropped it, Lily smirked.
"Draco, do it now." The fourth Death Eater said sharply.
Lily slid her gaze to Draco and frowned, for some reason Draco looked as if he couldn't do it.
"I don't know why the Dark Lord's bothering to kill you anyway, you don't have much time left in this world anyway I think," Amycus said leering at Dumbledore.
Lily's eyes flashed, "It is not your place to question why he orders things to be done," Lily said quietly, but all the Death Eaters froze and coiled back slightly, "It should be enough that he wants it done. Now do it Draco."
But Draco made no move to do so, Fenrir moved forward, "I'll do it then,"
There was a flash of light and Fenrir was blasted away, Lily stepped forward her wand drawn and the other Death Eaters drew back from Lily, "I thought I just said that Draco was to do it," Lily said her voice furious.
Fenrir looked as though he might spring at Lily but at that moment the door burst open again.
Snape walked onto the tower and took in the scene. His gaze lingered on Lily, "I wouldn't have thought you would have been allowed to be here Lily."
She smiled lopsidedly and slipped her wand away, "I am here to insure this is done Snape. And it is not being done," she shifted her eyes to Draco her face hardening.
"Hmm, I still would have thought that he would have kept you from, ah…being known," Snape said, briefly shifting his gaze from Lily to Dumbledore and back.
A small giggle escaped her lips, "Oh Sanpe, you sound like Nonthal. A dieing old man will be little trouble and a dead one will not be any. Especially since my dear brother will never know."
Dumbledore said calmly, "I'm sure Harry would want to know of you Lily. After all you are his twin."
Glances were swiftly shared amongst the Death Eaters, Lily slowly turned to Dumbledore. "I do not want to meet that…" Lily began coldly paused and breathed then she continued in a more controlled voice, "I have no interest in meeting Harry Potter, even if he is my twin. Now will someone kill this man!"
Draco began to stammer again but Snape pushed him roughly aside, "Avada Kedavra"
Lily watched impassively as Dumbledore flew off the tower then gazed at Snape for a moment. He looked back then grabbed Draco by the arm and pulled him roughly down the stairs.
