This is a story from Lily's POV based around the Prince's Tale. It starts from her first day at Hogwarts.
Enjoy =)
OH PS It's gonna skip around a bit =) Sorry
FIRST YEAR
Stupid boys. I had to pick the ONE compartment that had the loudest boys. I heard their names once or twice they were practically screaming at each other.
"Come on James!"
"Not now Sirius. There are other people."
"I agree with James, Sirius. Later."
"We're doing this for you Lupin!"
"OH FOR HEAVENS SAKE WILL YOU PLEASE BE QUIET!" I shouted.
"Wow." The one called Lupin said softly.
"What's the matter Red-head?" Sirius asked.
"I have had a HELL OF A DAY. My sister hates me and called me a freak. I may have lost my only friend because of it. I am muggle-born and don't know what the hell I am going to do so please STOP."
"Whatever you say Red." James said looking dumbstruck.
"My name is Lily!"
"OK, Lily." James added hastily.
"Thank you." I slumped back down in my seat and stared out the window. As soon as I had slumped back down they boys started up again. Thought so. I heard the door slide open I turned to see Severus standing looking slightly cleaner in his Hogwarts robes. He sat down next to me and put an arm around my shoulder.
"What's wrong Lily?"
"T-tuney hates me, because we read her letter."
"Don't worry about her. We're going to Hogwarts now."
"I don't want T-tuney to hate me."
"She won't...You'd better be in Slytherin." Severus said, hastily changing the subject. I opened my mouth to reply before one of the boys spoke up.
"Slytherin? I think I'd drop out. Wouldn't you Sirius?" James said.
"My whole family is in Slytherin." Sirius said quietly.
"Blimey, and I thought you seemed alright."
"Time to break the chain then aye? What house do you reckon you'll be in?"
"Gryffindor, of course. Where dwell the brave at heart." Severus snorted beside me.
"If you'd rather be brawny then brainy..." He said.
"And where are you hoping to go seeing as your neither." James jeered.
"Come on Sev. Let's go."
"Oooh!" They boys said. Lupin a little more reluctantly. James tripped Sev a little on the way out.
"See ya Snivellus!"
(Time warp)
I was in Gryffindor! Poor Sev looked devastated. I should be devastated I was in the same house as those awful boys. James moved down a bit to make room for me to sit next to him. I snorted and sat near Remus. He looked nicer than the others. He shook my hand. I couldn't help but notice a large scar running diagonally across his face.
"Remus Lupin. Sorry about earlier."
"Lily Evans. It's OK, their just immature."
"Lily and Remus sitting in a tree..." James sang.
"Shove off." Remus said, getting particularly pink in the face. Sev was near by and heard this, he looked murderous. When he was put in Slytherin I saw him look apologetically at me before sitting next to a rather large, long haired blonde with a prefect badge.
"So Lily. We got off to a bad start..." James started.
"Don't talk to me." I said in a clipped tone before moving to sit next to watery-eyed rat-looking boy. He looked stricken.
"Lily." I said holding my hand out.
"P-Peter."
"Are you OK?" He looked a little green.
"F-fine. I think I might actually go to the hospital wing." He stood up and waddled off. I raised an eyebrow. Strange boy. Very strange. A rather old, eccentric man stood up at the front head table.
"Well, I know you are famished after such a long trip on the Hogwarts Express, so I will only say a few words and leave you to your feast. Nitwit, Blubber, Oddment, Tweak!" My eyebrow raised higher. Strange people, these wizards. Tuney would call them freaks. Like me. I suddenly didn't feel like eating. Could I skip the feast? Probably not. I stared at the plates that had been empty just moments ago. I put a few things on my plate but ignored them. Remus leant over.
"Are you OK Lily?"
"Just...Don't feel well."
"Remus stop talking to your girlfriend and come back over here. We gotta tell you something." James called. I pushed away from the table. A prefect with a mass of curly blonde hair stood up too. She ran over.
"First 'ear right?" She said. She didn't sound very British, more French. I nodded a fast bob.
"I'm Emmy. 6th 'ear prefect. Are 'ou OK?"
"Not really. Can I go up to the common room? Or do I have to wait?"
"I don't think so. Hold Professor McGonagoll is coming. She's Gryffindor head of house, she'll know what to do." A rather stern looking women was walking briskly down the aisle. She had jet-black hair and a rather lined face.
"Emmy, what's the matter with young Lily?" She asked.
"She's not feeling ill and wanted to go to the common room."
"Well, we'll allow it this once. Feast are not usually skipped, but as this is her first time at Hogwarts I will make an exception. You go enjoy your meal Emmy, I'll accompany Lily to her dormitory." Emmy smiled thankfully and hurried back to her spot on the table. I smoothed my skirt and waved to Sev. He smiled and gave an exulted wave back, I turned to James and signaled a rude hand gesture. He stuck out his tongue. Remus looked over and mouthed 'Sorry'. I smiled and waved at him. I walked quickly behind Professor McGonagoll, with one last look at Sev I left the Hall.
(Time warp)
"Hey! Red-head! Wake up! You'll be late!" A girl with short pink hair shook me. Her eyebrows were strange shade of blue. She shook her head and her hair turned dark blonde, as with her eyebrows. She smiled at my questionable expression.
"Maxine. Sorry. My metamorphosing is always outta whack in the morning."
"Yeah. Wow, that's really cool. I'm Lily."
"Cool name. I have a younger sister. Her names Nymphadora. She hates it."
"Nymphadora? Can she...change? Like you."
"Oh yeah."
"Wow."
"Yeah well, like I said, you'll be late. It's already eight. Us first years have to be down the great hall."
"Oh blimey! I forgot. Oh, I forgot about Severus."
"You's better hurry then."
(Time warp)
I rushed down the steps, my cloak flailing behind me. I skidded to a stop out front of the Great Hall and crashed into someone.
"Holy- I am so sorry! I was in a rush, I did-" I gasped out. I looked at the mess of black hair.
"Jesus Lily. Ya leave me standing out here all by myself and then you knock me over!" Severus accused, laughing slightly.
"Are you OK?"
"I'm fine. But can you help me with my books?" I looked at the toppled books. .5.6. 6 books? Blimey.
"Don't you have a book bag?" I asked picking up his books.
"Musta escaped my mind." He said dully.
"I have a spare..."
"I'm fine." We started to walk into the Great Hall but someone rushed past us and Sev lost all his books again. I looked up to see James grinning mischievously. I glared. He was such a jerk. I didn't see any teachers and my constant book reading left me with a few choice hexes. Maybe Jelly-legs. I pulled my wand out of my ponytail, where I kept like my pens back in muggle school. Before I could say my hex Sev had whipped out his wand and pointed it at James.
"Densaugeo!" Cried Snape. The curse hit an unsuspecting James right in the face. I giggled before letting out an almighty scream. To my horror James teeth were growing at the speed of light. They were reaching his waist already. James pulled his wand out with difficulty and uttered out a hex.
"Entomorphis!" I turned to see where Snape was standing, a rather grotesque looking black beetle. A load of people around who were watching in interest screamed in horror. Some laughed. Others gaped in surprise. Lupin and Sirius were already dragging James out of the hall.
"WHAT DID YOU DO?" I screamed. "PUT HIM BACK! MAKE HIM NORMAL!"
"Why?" James called. Turning. His teeth had stopped growing but they were skimming along the floor. It looked like he couldn't speak properly.
"YOU TURNED HIM INTO A BUG!"
"Look at my teeth!"
"He made your teeth grow a bit. Look at him! You Transfigured him! He's a bug!"
"I like him better that way. He can't hex me."
"I will! Furnunculus!" When the hex withered and didn't work, James erupted into a loud guffaws of laughter.
"I hate you!" I slapped him across the face. Hard. My hand burnt a little and James cheek was bright red with my hand print.
"Ohh." I put my hands across my mouth to stop from giggling. James put his hands up and curled them into fists. Then turned eruptly.
"Let's go!" He yelled to Lupin and Sirius. I ran back over to the rather large black bug. I crouched down and held my hand to the floor.
"Quick hop on. I don't have any jars or nothing I can put you in. I'll just have to give you a piggy back ride. Sorta."
