Chapter one

For Lily Luna Potter, being in the nearby theaters production of Beauty and the Beast was pretty much a dream come true.

It started one morning when her mother Ginny was reading the paper. Lily was sitting next to her thirteen year old brother Albus Severus and her 15 year old brother, James Sirius. She was munching on some bacon when her mother shrieked, causing Lily to drop the glass plate on the hardwood floor. Her dad Harry quickly ran to his daughter and lifted her from her seat.

" Dad, I'm 11! You don't need to do that! " Lily giggled. But then she turned to face her mother." What is it, Mum?" She asked.

A look of excitement was in her eye." There is a local production of Beauty and the Beast! Oh Lily, you have to try out." Her mother looked like a insane fan girl.

Lily ended up saying yes, and that is how the Potter family drove Lily to the try-outs.

" Don't be sad if you don't get in, Lil's. They might only want good actresses." James Sirius taunted her in the back.

Lily was nervous, so when he said that, She started to sob. Albus Severus was the one who stood up for her.

" Come on, man. Leave her alone." He said to him. James blushed.

" Fine. Good luck Lil's." The rest of the car ride was silent.

Finally they pulled into the parking lot of the theater. As they were crossing to the theater, James Sirius saw a car coming toward Lily. He ran to her, pushing her out of the way. The landing was far from graceful. The window was rolled down, revealing a lady with smudged blue eye shadow.

" Oh, I am so sorry!" The lady looked sincere. As Harry and Albus Severus helped them up, Ginny learned the lady was the director of the play. Ginny wasn't sure she trusted this lady with her daughter.

" Hi!" The woman said cheerfully to Lily." I am Samantha. Who would you be?"

Lily finally found her words." Lily Luna Potter."

* At the try outs*

James Sirius was bored out of his mind. He sat next to his fearful sister, watching all of the Belle wannabee's and trying to calm her down.

" Just pretend you are alone. Then it won't seem that bad." He patted her back.

" Lily Luna Potter." Shannon yelled after a girl with blonde pigtails went.

" Go get em', sis!" James whispered, patting her on the back.

To be honest, his sister was fantastic. But he didn't want to say that. Lily was the last one, so they could leave. James Sirius could not have been more happy.
