When Lily woke up again, Scorpius, James and Albus had gone. Why had they turned on her like that? Well she knew why, but she couldn't help it, but what had made them think she was a psycho? Was this an effect of what had happened? Maybe I should tell someone, thought Lily. Dominique or Rose. Dominique was a good secret keeper and Rose always knew what to do in a bad situation. She got up from her bed and left quickly before Madam Pomfrey could stop her. She went to the Gryffindor common room. Albus, Rose, James and Dominique were all sat together, deep in conversation. They turned and stopped talking when Lily came in.

"Oh don't let me interrupt your conversation." she snapped, "Having a nice little discussion about me? Go on then. Who's going to say."

Rose spoke.

"We think… you shouldn't hang around with us anymore."

"Oh I see." said Lily, her temper rising, "No one wants to be near crazy girl. Well I don't want to be near you either, so you can take your friendship and shove it up your arses!"

She stormed out of the common room, no one dared follow her. She bumped into Scorpius Malfoy.

"Watch where you're going!" she screamed in his face and pushed him to the floor. She went into the girls bathroom. Moaning Myrtle was sobbing in the end cubical and Lily stood by the sink. She looked at herself in the mirror and turned on the tap. Splashing her face with the cold water, she felt more water run down her face. So now she had no one to tell. Why not just end it now? She might die soon anyway, no one would care. She took a deep breath and plunged her face into the water. It felt cool against her cheeks and her tears blended in with it.

"SUICIDE!" shrieked Myrtle, "SUICIDE IN THE BATHROOM!"

Lily pulled her head out. The last thing she needed was a crowd. She tore from the bathroom and hid in the library. No one would suspect her of being in there. She sat in there all day, not bothering to come out for lunch. When everyone else was having dinner, she snuck back into the common room. She clambered onto her bed, not wanting to speak or look at anyone. She closed her eyes and slept.

*Flashback (In Lily's dream)*

The five Potters walked down Diagon Alley. It was nearing the end of the summer, so the days were shortening again and getting slightly colder.

"I'm just going to pop in to see Neville and Hannah." said Ginny, turning back towards the Leaky Cauldron. James went off to Weasley's Wizarding Wheezes, but Albus and Lily remained by their father.

"Dad, look!" exclaimed Albus, "There's a new version of the Nimbus out!"

Harry and Albus both went over to the shop window, obviously forgetting their age. Sighing, Lily went towards Flourish and Blotts. But a cat was lingering near an alleyway. It was a very unusual looking cat, with bright green eyes. Lily went over to the cat and to made stroke it, but it turned and went down the alleyway.

"Come back!" said Lily and followed it. She caught up with it in a wider part of the alley and stroked it. The cats fur was slightly damp. Lily looked at her fingers. They were stained red. Blood. She gasped and backed away. She bumped into someone. They grabbed her by the shoulders, their face concealed in shadows.

"You can always trust a cat to make people interested." said the person, a man's voice. Lily daren't wonder where the blood came from. A strong scent of alcohol and smoke filled Lily's nostrils, almost choking her.

"Red hair. A Weasley?" asked the man. His grip tightened so Lily answered.

"Yes, but I'm a Potter."

"A Potter and a Weasley? Even better." his voice sounded happy and Lily was certain there was a smile on his face. Why did she have to follow after that bloody cat?

"Can I go?" she asked, trying to sound polite and bold, failing on the latter.

"Not yet." said the man, one of his hands reached into his pocket and got out his wand. Lily's heart pounded in her chest. She was going to die, she knew it. Her parents wouldn't find her, no one would, she'd be lying dead in this alley. But the man did not say the killing curse. He said another spell, which Lily had not heard and doubted she'd ever hear again. She fell to floor and the man went away, his cloak swishing behind him. Lily breathed heavily and slowly. The weird thing was, she felt fine, apart from a little shocked and shaken. She got up and ran out the alley as fast as she could. She bumped into James.

"Where have you been? Mum and dad were worried!" he told her. He looked where she had just emerged from, "Where you trying to get into Knockturn Alley?"

"I-" began Lily, but this sounded like a better excuse, "Yes I was."

James rolled his eyes.

"I won't tell mum and dad. Come on, lets go back."

Lily followed him, not mentioning her meeting in the dark alleyway to anyone.

A/N: Hopefully things are becoming clearer about Lily and as for the other three, all shall be revealed! I don't own any characters, except the mysterious stranger! I'll update soon lover-ducks! :)
