Alice ran up to the Gryffindor girls' dormitory to find Jackie and Beth. She needed there help if she was going to figure out a way to make Ashley pay. For too long had she been allowed to bully and frighten people into doing what she wanted.
Alice found Beth lying on Jackie's bed, while Jackie was sitting on said bed trying to study. It was the normal sight in the 7th year girls dorm. "Hey girls," Alice called "I need your help trying to destroy Ashley Brown." She announced in a cheerful tone, which scared the two girls.
Too say they were surprised would be an understatement, Jackie dropped the book she was holding from shock and Beth fell of the bed and laded on the floor with a resounding 'THUMP'. Alice merely smiled and continued "So any idea's? I have a plan, before we start any revenge first we need to do some damage control." Alice stared off into space as if trying to find her answers in the sky.
The other two girls looked at each other trying to figure out what had gotten into their normally passive friend. "Eh Alice," Jackie started in a soft tone to gain Alice's attention. "..well how can I put this lightly..."
"What in Merlin's name has gotten into you?" Beth asked bluntly. Jackie glared at her best friend for being so tactless before turning towards Alice for an answer.
Alice face darkened as she realised that the two girls had been up here the entire time and so, missed the entire scene between Lily and Ashley. She told them what happened and Beth immediately stood up and made her way to leave the dorm. Jackie grabbed her arm, turned her around and asked "Where are you going?"
Beth merely stated "I'm going to strangle that-" Alice intervened before Beth's foul mouth could run away with nasty insults. "No your not we need to make her pay without you going to Azkaban." Beth sighed and began to think. Suddenly a light went off in her head, and an evil smirk spread across her face.
She simply said "Let's go," before running out of the room. Jackie and Alice shared a look before following her. Next thing they knew they were outside the boy's dormitory. Beth seemed to be thinking to herself, she nodded, again to herself, before pulling out her wand and blasting the door open.
Jackie and Alice groaned at their friend's antics before entering the room after her. They looked around and saw a pale-faced Remus sitting up on his bed looking shocked. Alice noticed dark puple circles under his eyes, and how ill he looked. She was about to say something when she noticed a crazed looking Beth with her wand pointed directly at a terrified Peter.
"Where is Black?" she asked in a sickly sweet voice that made her sound like a maniac. Peter looked as if he was about to soil his clothing as he replied
"W-w-what?" in his nervous stutter voice.
She looked at him and smiled "You heard me, where is Sirius Black?" Peter gave her a confused look and Remus took pity on his friend and answer for him.
"He was just in the shower" and sure enough just after he said this in walked Sirius completely oblivious to the scene in front of him wearing only a towel singing "..she's a maniac MANIAC on the floor, and she's dancing like she's-" he stopped his off key singing abruptly when he noticed the three girls in the room.
Beth seemed to be quite distracted by the sight of Sirius in just a towel and Jackie was still staring at her with a what-the-heck-are-you-doing look. Alice seemed to understand as she suddenly cried "OH!"
The crazed Alice seemed to reappear as she walked right up too Sirius and said "We need your help."
James and Lily walked through the halls in silence. Lily was lost in thought and James didn't know what too say.
"Lily, are you okay?" James asked in a concerned tone.
Lily turned and gave and unconvincing smile and said "Of, course why wouldn't I be?"
James sighed and shook his head. "I don't know I mean, you just don't seem yourself." Lily was curious as to how well he knew her and so asked "How so?"
James thought for a moment before answering. "Usually, your chatty you know? You'll find something to talk about and you'll be smiling as your talking. Or you will go on about how Beth was acting crazy or how Sirius annoyed you. Now your not smiling, your barely talking and your biting your bottom lip the way you always do when your thinking about something. What's on your mind?"
Lily just stared at him. Wow so he really does know me. Better then I thought he did anyway. Lily looked round to see that they were standing at the stone gargoyle that was used as an entrance to Dumbledore's office. "We'll talk later okay? When we get back after the meeting?"
With that she stepped forward and said "Bon-Bons"
"Hello there, how are my two Heads this evening?" Dumbledore said in his usual light-hearted tone. Both replied politely assuring him they were well. When all the pleasantries had been exchanged they son took a seat and got down to business. They discussed the other prefects, setting up a study group for the 5th years taking their O.W.L. 's anything else that had been of concern. When that was all completed James and Lily began to get ready to leave when Dumbledore stopped them.
"There is one more thing I wish to speak of if you would please take a few moments to listen." When neither objected he continued, with a serious expression on his face.
"As I'm sure you are both aware there is a war going on beyond the peace of these walls, one of the most gruesome I believe our kind has ever seen and as of right now the wrong side have the power. It must not stay this way. I must ask you if given the opportunity would you stand and fight?"
Lily was lost in thought, of course she had thought about it before but was she able too? Did she have that kind of strength?
James did not need anytime to think he knew in his heart that he had to fight. A world were his Lily was persecuted was not one he wanted to live in. "Yes Sir, I would."
Lily looked at James for a moment before answering, "Yes Professor I would aswell."
