"Ow

"Ow!" Came a muffled voice from under Severus. He quickly moved aside and helped Lily up.

"Are you ok?" he asked.

"No, I- -I think I broke a rib. I landed on the handle…OW!" She screamed. "Don't touch me! Just- - Just let me lay here a sec."

Severus drew back quickly at her cry of pain. "What happened?" She asked him.

"Not sure. I think we've derailed." He answered.

"What?! How could this have happened?"

"I don't know…Here." Severus placed his hands around her waist to help her up. She thanked him and stood hunched over. She took several deep uneven breaths and hand her hands on her knees to steady herself.

"You going to be alright?" Severus asked concern evident in his voice.

"I should be, I just need to get these fixed as soon as possible." She said pointing to her ribs.

"I'm going to go have a look see." Severus said as he pulled back the compartment door and dropped down onto the compartment door that would have been across the hallway, but was now underneath them.

He landed catlike on top of the doors, startling the people in that compartment who were picking themselves up. He stood up and hit his head on the windows of his and Lily's compartment. Rubbing his head he crouched over and began heading towards the front of the train. He kept looking up and down into the compartments to see if everyone was ok. There were some gruesome sights in the compartments and he hurried forward. He looked ahead and saw students lying motionless on top of the doors ahead of him. He stepped over them carefully as he made his way forward. He glanced up and saw to his amazement an empty compartment, one that probably housed the students lying before him. He reached up and pulled himself into the compartment. He pushed the remaining glass out of the broken window and climbed out. The sight ahead of him was horrendous.

There were students lying motionless everywhere, spread out as if tossed by a giant, all over the forest floor. He put his hand over his mouth. The site was horrible. He saw faces that he knew of classmates and some that he didn't. Children that had just turned eleven and on their first, and last, ride on the Hogwarts Express. He saw a few of them stir, and many others lie as still as stone, just like the unlucky ones still in the train.

He was in shock. He turned back towards the broken window when he heard a noise, a sound like someone struggling behind him. He looked down and saw Lily trying to climb out of the train. He bent down and helped her up, he had some difficulty but she was soon out and looked upon the grisly scene in front of her.

She hugged Severus tightly. "I saw Emily back there. I think she's dead." She whispered into his ear. Severus tightened his grip on her, careful not to hurt her ribs, and held her as she silently cried into his shoulder.

"What are we going to do?" She asked a few minutes later.

Severus looked at her and shrugged. "I don't know."

"As if you'll know what to do." Came a voice. Severus and Lily turned around to see James Potter and Sirius Black emerge from the same broken window. They were followed several minutes later my Remus Lupin and Peter Pettigrew. Remus gasped at the sight ahead of them, Peter covered his eyes, Sirius and James surveyed the students.

"We have to help them." James said. "Go around and see who is still alive. Help them any way you can. You two," He pointed to Remus and Peter. "Help the ones inside the train and get the others who are able to help as well and- -"

There was a clunk of dead weight hitting the metal of the train. Severus and the others looked down. Lily had passed out, her face was ghostly white and her body was bent as an odd angle.

"What happened to her?!" James screamed at Severus as he bent down to straighten her up.

"She's broken some ribs and maybe more, she wasn't sure. She assured me that she was alright." He too bent down and pushed James out of the way and picked her up.

James opened his mouth to say something rude to Severus when there were several loud popping noises. They all looked up and saw many teachers apparating to the sight. There were many shocked gasped and a few screams from the teachers as they quickly ran over to the students.

"Professor!" Cried Sirius. Professor McGonagall looked up and saw Lily lying limp in Severus' arms. She hurried over to them and grabbed lily's wrist.

"She's still alive, but just. We need to get her back to the School. The Headmaster has lifted the apparating block for a few hours. Apparate there and get her to the Hospital Wing." She ordered. "Then, if you can, come back and help!" She hurried off to help the other teachers.

Severus looked at James and turned on the spot, there was a loud pop, and he was gone. He apparated to the seventh floor landing and walked as fast as he could into the Hospital Wing. He gently lay Lily down on a bed and ran to the Nurse's office. He pounded on the door, and gave a frustrated yell as he banged his fists on it.

"Excuse me!" Came an angry voice.

Severus spun around and saw the Nurse standing by Lily's bed. "She just fainted!" He cried.

"Calm down boy, she will be alright. Can you go back and help the others?"

Severus nodded. "Then go, bring back as many as you can."

He nodded again and spun on the spot once more.

When he returned to the train wreck there was more organization than when he had left. There were students on stretchers lying everywhere waiting for the older students to side apparate with them.

There were also bodies lined up neatly over by a large tree. They were lying still and Severus knew that they were in fact dead. He closed his eyes; there were quite a few of them. He thought about counting them, but took a guess and figured at least 15 in his head.

He looked for someone that he knew and cared for, but he knew that they only person that he truly cared for was lying in a hospital bed back at the school. He stood there for a moment longer, thinking about the girl he cared for most in the world and something caught his attention to his left. He stared ahead and saw movement.

Curiosity caught the best of him and he walked forward. There was someone, they were hiding, the movement stopped for a moment. He kept walking forward, there was definitely someone there, and they were hiding.

'Why would a student be hiding?' He asked himself. 'Scared maybe?' "Stupid gits…" He muttered.

Once he reached the forest line he was called back by Professor Flitwick. "Severus, can you take these people back?"

Severus cocked his head towards his professor, but didn't turn around. He kept his eyes forward and on the shape in front of him.

"Right little mess we made isn't it….Snape." Came a malicious voice from the darkness.

OOHH! Who could the voice be from!? Got any ideas? Lemme know what you think! Thanks! XOXO R&R...especially the 2nd R! ;)
