"Oh shit! What do we do?"

"Who is she?"

"How she get down here?"

"How did we get down here?"

"I don't recognize her…"

"I know everyone at Hogwarts now, but I don't know her"

"Maybe she doesn't go here?"

"She's wearing a Gryffindor jersey; she must play for the house team!"

"Then how do I not know her?"

Lily groaned. The voices were echoing throughout the chamber and they continued to talk about her. How could they be here? How was this possible? She needed back up, she couldn't handle this alone.

"I think she's waking up" a voice said. It was deep and husky, and sounded awfully familiar…

"No shit Malfoy! Why don't you just stand over there and let the good guys handle this"

"I'm sorry Potter; I thought I would point out the obvious seeing as how you are incapable of recognizing one of your own!" The husky voice was increasing in volume and Lily couldn't bear it any longer.

"SHUT IT!" she screamed, making everyone jump back in surprise. "I will not have you arguing!" Her voice had gotten quieter but she was still shouting.

"Um, sorry" Potter mumbled. A tall boy next to him shook his head, and offered a hand. Lily took it, smiling slightly and let herself be pulled up.

"Now," she said sighing and adjusting her clothes, "we are in a bit of a pickle aren't we?" The nine other people in the room looked at each other before back at Lily. How was she was calm at a time like this? Shouldn't she be panicking? Running around screaming? Calling her- wait! She turned quickly, after spotting something moving out of the corner of her eye…

"Holy mother of Merlin!" she was screaming again, but this time in excitement. A scrawny boy, with long black hair, and a pale white face stared back at her, eyes wide. Lily started jumping up and down and squealing. "You're Snape!" she screamed.

He looked utterly bewildered.

"Uh, yea" he said cautiously, as if the squealing girl was about to attack him. He took a step back anyway.

Lily began to laugh; as all of the other students began to take two steps back from her. She noticed this, and quickly realized how crazy she must look. She stopped jumping.

"Um, sorry" she said coughing slightly. "I just got a bit excited" she looked at the floor.

Confusion written on his face, Potter took a step forward, his arm extended.

"Hi" he began; "I'm James" he smiled as Lily took his hand. This is sooooo weird!

"Uh, call me Luna" she said, best to save confusion…

"Well it's nice to meet you Luna" James said, still smiling brightly. He then turned to the others with smiling faces and gestured to each one in turn.

"This is Peter" he said, pointing to a small fat boy in the corner. He looked up at the mention of his name, smiling slightly. Lily found it very hard not to punch him right then and there. Little blighter. Instead she smiled as he did; he seemed to relax after that.

"This is Remus" the boy who helped her up. Jeez, he was hot when he was younger! Remus gave a little wave and smiled as well, then looked slightly taken aback when Lily pounced on him. She wrapped her arms around his neck and squeezed. This was Teddy's dad after all, if he can't give him a hug, Lily would for him. He chuckled and hugged her back for a few seconds.

"Nice to meet you" he said, still laughing. She pulled back grinning. James then gestured to the next boy.

"This is-"

"PADFOOT!" Lily screamed again. She really had to stop doing that. She lunged at Sirius with so much force he had trouble staying up right. He laughed to though.

"Hi Little Red" he said into her hair as he hugged her back. "How do you know my nickname?" he suddenly became cautious, and Lily realized her mistake.
