Chapter 10

"We have to wait for the winds to pick up, Captain." Remus said calmly, as he watched his friend pace.

James growled in frustration. "WHAT IF WE DON'T GET THERE IN TIME!" He yelled.

"Calm down James, yelling won't help." Sirius stated, patting his friends shoulder. Making him cease his pacing.

"What if he finds out? He will kill her, because she's no use to him." James shook with anger.

"She might not be yet… and if she is, he will think she is, with his child, and not yours."

James shook his head "How did you find out this information, anyway?"

Remus smiled, "Sirius decided to do what he does best, he looked threw Peters belongings."

James let a smile creep onto his face, at the thought of his friends sneaky antic's.

"We'll catch up soon" Remus sighed, noticing his friends distress, even if his friend was smiling, the pain still stood out in his eyes.

James sighed and nodded. "If we don't catch up soon, the extra sail is going up, and I want cannons at the ready." He paused. "Within the hour"

Remus nodded and went to give orders.

Lily opened her soar eyes, she could tell they were red and puffy. Without looking in the mirror.

Sighing, she closed her eyes, trying to think of soothing thoughts.

Suddenly, the door creaked open. Lily tried to hide her fear. Only one person, had come threw that door so far, she begged it wasn't him.

Surprisingly she heard light footsteps, instead of the heavy ones, she usually heard.

She listened as they got closer and closer. Till they stopped right next to the bed. Whoever it was didn't move or speak, silently telling her they knew she was awake.

Lily held back a sigh, slowly she opened her eyes, and turned her head slowly to the side. Stood next to her, was a women about 5 foot 7 with long silver-blond hair, looking down at her, with pitying silver-blue eyes. She was wearing a long green shirt… what looked liked to be a mans, and tight pants.

"Who… who are you?" Lily croaked. Lily was shocked, that was her voice? She knew she hadn't drank in a while, but she didn't expect to sound like that.

The women smiled slightly. "I'm Narcissa.. Narcissa Malfoy, and this is, Draco Malfoy, my son" Narcissa smiled. Bending slightly to show Lily a small baby cradled in her arms, hidden by a blanket. Lily hadn't even known she was holding anything, considering as the blanket matched the shirt.

Lily gave a weak smile as Narcissa showed her the young child. The baby had pale skin, with small tuffs of white blonde hair, on the top of his tiny head. The baby appeared to be sleeping, and hardly looked older then a week.

Lily watched silently, as Narcissa lay the sleeping child on the sofa, that lay beside the bed. She came back over and began to untie Lily from the bed.

Lily stared at Narcissa in confusion. "What are you doing?" she croaked.

Narcissa finished freeing one of Lily's wrists, and looked at her smiling slightly. "I've been ordered to get you cleaned up, and I can't do that whilst your tied up, can I?" Narcissa smiled.

Lily blushed, "I guess not" Lily looked at her wrist, which had been freed, and looked at the rope burns, that had formed when she had struggled.

When she had been freed fully, Narcissa had gently wrapped Lily in a towel, and led her out onto the deck. Lily had followed, her legs were shaking, from not being used for so long. Lily had gasped, as she felt the sea air reach her lungs. She could see the morning sun rising, and smiled slightly, as she had remembered watching it and have James come up from behind her.

Before she could began to think, she felt a light shove on her back, to command her to keep walking.

Lily sighed and followed Narcissa down steps that led to below deck, and began to walk along a long corridor.

Suddenley, Narcissa stopped outside a door, and looked at Lily. "Don't come in, if I go in" She said, before knocking on the door.

They waited a moment before the door opened slowly, and a man appeared, he was about 6 foot 1 with long silver blond hair. He looked at Narcissa with cold grey eyes. He was pale like Narcissa.

"What do you want." He growled, at Narcissa. Lily was expecting Narcissa to turn away, but instead she glared at him. "I have orders to clean up the princess." Narcissa said in a cold tone.

"So?"

"So… it means, you will have to look after your son" She snarled. Before thrusting the baby into his arms, and walking away.

Lily stared for a second, before hurriedly following Narcissa down the corridor.

She found Narcissa round a corner breathing heavily.

"Wha… what was that about?" Lily asked daringly, after a few minutes of standing in silence.

"Not here" Narcissa said. Before walking to another door and opening it, she indicated Lily to follow her, and she did, after a moment.

Lily walked into the room and studied the room silently. It held a large tub that was filled with soapy water, in the middle of the room, and buckets of water lay by the side of it.

Narcissa smiled. "Get in"

Lily silently nodded, she was used to having people wash her, she remembered having her mother wash her when she was a child, and then having her maids wash her, once she was old enough. Lily smiled slightly, before lowering herself into the tub.

She let out a low hiss of pain, when the soapy water washed over the scratches from the night before.

"Are you alright?" Narcissa asked, as she came over with one of the buckets and a sponge.

Lily nodded. "The scratch's sting a bit, that's all"

Narcissa smiled. Then began to wash Lily, and clean her cuts.

"Who was that guy?" Lily asked once, Narcissa had gotten up. "I'm assuming he's Draco's father… but why is he so cruel to you?"

Lily watched as Narcissa stiffened slightly, then turned round to face Lily, she sat back down next to the tub, and took in a deep breathe.

"You assume correct, he is Draco's father… unfortunately." Narcissa said coldly.

"Unfortunately… so your not with him by choice?" Lily asked, peering over the edge to look at Narcissa.

"Oh god, I'd never be with that man by choice." She paused for a second, before staring up at Lily. "I'm assuming you know the pirate law?"

Lily nodded. Of course she knew the law, it was the main reason why she was here.

"Well I was daughter to one of the richest pirates going… apart from your father, my father held a large party, and I met Lucius… Draco's father. I had been drinking heavily, and we were chatting, then kissing and of course, one thing led to another."

Narcissa sighed before carrying on. "A few weeks later, I found I had fallen pregnant, I made the huge mistake of telling my father, and soon I was forced down the isle by that stupid law, causing me to marry that horrible man and end up here." She sighed.

"I'm sorry" Lily whispered, taking in all the information.

Narcissa shook her head. "Lily I need to ask you a favour"

"Anything" Lily said automatically. She had no idea why she said it, she guessed it was, because Narcissa had been the only nice person aboard this horrid ship.

"I know there's another ship tailing us, and I'm guessing the people on board are coming for you." She paused. Looking at Lily.

Lily felt her heart leap for joy, they were coming for her. She felt happiness wash over her. Then she nodded to Narcissa to carry on.

"Lily, if you get taken back to that ship, will do me a big favour of taking Draco with you?" Narcissa pleaded.

Lily stared at her in shock, thinking it threw. 'If she did get back onto the Marauder how the hell would she explain it to James?'

Narcissa noticed Lily's hesitation and attempted to persuade her. "I know it's a lot to ask, but Lily see it from my point of view, I don't wish my son to grow up, loathing everyone like his father, come to think of it, I want him nothing like his father." Tears were shining in Narcissa silvery blue eyes.

Lily looked into the pained eyes of the women in front of her. Sighing she nodded slowly. "I will, but find a way to get him to me, in case I'm separated from you"

Narcissa squealed. "Thank you so much! I owe you my life for this Lily." Narcissa smiled, before getting up and grabbing the towel and clothes, that were left on the side for Lily. She passed them to Lily, and turned so Lily could change in privacy.

Lily dried herself off, and changed into a long sleeved emerald shirt and black pants, which were to big for her, and had to be rolled up, to fit her.

Just as Lily was about to say something, there was a massive boom, and suddenly the ship begin to rock violently.

Lily let out a squeal, as the rocking ship knocked her off her feet. As she hit the floor she was drenched by one of the buckets, that still held some water.

"What the…" Narcissa started, but was cut off when the door burst open.

There stood Voldemort. His blood red eyes looked at Narcissa, who had just gotten up, and then at Lily, who still lay on the floor, drenched.

He looked at Narcissa, and quickly said. "Get back to your cabin, and do not come out, unless I call you to the deck."

Narcissa nodded, and quickly rushed out the room.

Then he looked at Lily, and walked over to her silently. He grabbed her rough fully, round the wrist and pulled her to her feet, and dragged her out the room.

He dragged her along the corridor and down more steps till her stopped outside a door. He pushed it open a shoved her threw. Closing the door. Lily heard the lock slide, on the outside of the door.

She sighed and looked at the dimly lit room, it held many crates all different sizes. She felt the ship rocking harder, and the booms of cannons sounding louder.

What seemed hours, but was really a few minutes, the door opened. Lily stood up from one of the crates she had been sitting on. In the doorway stood Narcissa. In her arms was a bundle of blankets. Lily knew Draco was cradled inside the blankets.

"Are you sure about this?" Lily asked. As Narcissa placed Draco in her arms.

She nodded silently and kissed Draco on the head. "I love you" she whispered. Before looking up at Lily. "Thank you so much for this."

Lily smiled. "Your welcome."

Narcissa smiled and kissed Draco once more, before exiting the room.

Lily sighed and sat back down, she looked at the small baby that lay in her arms.

He was so small. She smiled, then noticed something, his eyes were open, and they looked just liked Narcissa's, they were silver with hints of light blue in them.

Lily smiled down at him. She would protect him no matter what. She made a promise, a promise that she intended to keep.

Lily sat in the cold room, she began to shiver from the cold, her wet clothes weren't helping either.

Suddenley the sound of the lock, being unlocked sounded, throughout the cold room. Lily helled in her breathe as the door creaked opened. The door fully opened and there stood…
