A/N As I said before, I'm sorry I haven't updated in a while, been busy, yadda, yadda, yadda. I explained it all in the last chapter. Here we go. Enjoy!
Lily's POV
I'm running faster than I've ever run in my life, and yet I know I won't be there soon enough.
"STOP! DON'T GO! SEVERUS DON'T GO!" I try calling, but my voice is lost in the wind.
Oh shit I think as I see him enter the tunnel. I put on a burst of speed in a last attempt to reach the tree, even though I know it's in vain..
Just as I reach it I'm pushed out of the way by something. Something heavy, something furry, and something with what looks suspiciously like antlers…
What the heck?
I have to be dreaming. There is no way a stag just pushed me out of the way. I've never seen a stag here in all my six years at Hogwarts! It got off me, and stared at me. I reached out a hand and touched it. Yup. Real. Then the stag starts to glow, and suddenly James Potter is there with my hand on his arm. Oh. My. God.
"Y-you're an animagus!" I gasp, too shocked by what just happened to remember Remus, and Snape. He nodded grimly. "Did Snape go in?" he asks, and I snapped back to reality. "Yes! He's in the tunnel now! He-he'll meet Remus!" I told him anxiously.
"You know about Remus?" He looked surprised. "Yes, yes, for a while, now what are we going to do!" I replied impatiently
"You? You're going to wait out here, and wait for me to come back out. I'm going to go in and and get Snape out of there, hopefully before he can see Remus. And don't argue. There's no time." He added hurriedly, seeing the look on my face. I scowled, but stayed quite. "Good." He turned around to enter the tunnel, then stopped and looked over his shoulder at me, "Sorry for pushing you by the way. You were about to get hit." He winked, and then dashed into the tunnel, leaving me outside to wonder what was happing down there….
A/N Wow. That's actually pretty short! Hmm…. it took me only about 2 hours to write it though, so ya… I have a confession to make… I finished this, saw it was only 6pm, and therefore only 2 hours after I put up the previous A/N, and decided to read a book, and listen to some songs till it was actually late...I know. Sorry.
