Prologue
In a dark underground pathway of hogwarts, the sound of nothingness was painful as the situation was very awkward.
Hiding in the corner against the wall of the pathway together was the maradaurs, Severus, the headmaster, Malfoy, some death eaters and well... a very injured ex-dark lord.
No one knew what to say, the irony of this situation was incomprehensible to begin with and rendered their minds to be more or less functioning. To absorb in the information that lead up to... The unfortunate(?) advents would need quite a days work of explanation.
If it was in any other situation Sirius Black would certainly be screaming at the death eaters and start a dual, or something along those lines, but right now the only thing on his mind was getting out of this alive (even if it meant running away with his tail between his legs).
In this situation no one uttered a word, not even the boisterous and loud James. All he did- or could do was look around and try to keep his eyes open for any dangers that lurked.
Looking around he could see Lucius Malfoys eyes shine with intent.
In an instant for some James and Malfoy started to fire some spell at each other. Chaos insued and hell knows what was going on anymore, not like they understood from the beginning...
Trying to stop them the headmaster knocked both of the boys wands out of their hands and a few others in the process.
"Lucius, Stop this instant!"
Anger visible on his face, Voldemort commanded.
"What do you think you're doing!?"
"Give me Severus." Lucius calmly said as he looked at James in the eyes, full of inconceilled contempment to the gryfindoor, but there was a hint of ugency in his tone.
Everyone was shocked Lucius Malfoy had just ignored Voldemort paying no head to him and instead asked for Severus.
"No." Not backing down James pulled the nearby Severus behind him protectively.
"You fool..." Lucius glared, clicking his tounge.
"Hm...Indead he is." A cold yet beautiful voice had sounded in the dark underground halls.
Surprised at the silky sounding voice all eyes went to its direction. Shock, Fear, Surprise, And other varied emotions formed on the faces of everyone, as they stared at the figure that had appeared before them.
Seeing that it was her Lucius quickly knelt to the ground to show which side he was now on.
Her untaimed blood red hair flowed briskly as she walked towards them in a flawless and dominating manner, and her green eyes sparkled as it accessed each of them staring straight at them, dully. But of course with her actions she still maintained a smile, not genuine, no warmth, no kindness, it was just a plain smile.
A smile that was adorned on her face through all the years like a mask, which everyone had thought was her face- a face of kindness to all and a warmth and beauty like no other.
The woman-no, she was still a child, her baby fat was evident and her face clean and pure, but by no doubts even with her current looks she would undoubtedly grow even more beautiful in the future.
But beauty could not hide what was underneath, as everyone had realized her unpredictable manners and...dubious morals.
Looking at them her gaze fell to James, more percisly the person behind him.
The heavy atmosphere suddenly became lighter.
"Sevy..." As if the cold atmosphere and the blank tone had not existed, she, with her lightest voice and sweetest smile called out to him dottingly.
"L-lily..." Surprise flash through Severus's eyes followed by happiness and then confusion.
But before he could take any steps towards her, James blocked his way. Grabbing him and pulling Severus behind him protectively.
Honestly, who would ever think that a situation like this would ever happen?
Well, it all happened 3 months ago...
