Author's note: Just a friendly reminder that for this Ron didn't hurt his leg and end up in the infirmary so he was able to go along with his friends. :) Also out of the many changes Lily is going to bring, we are first starting with proving Sirius' innocence.

Obscurial Flower

Chapter 10: The Gryffindor Way

Everything was going according to plan. They had saved Buckbeak's life and were now watching as the rest of the events unfolded before their very eyes. It was shocking to see it all from a different perspective this time. Lily, however, was debating on something.

Harry caught on, noticing this. "What's wrong?"

"Maybe I should have saved Sirius sooner, than this whole thing wouldn't have happened." She replied, watching as Remus and Sirius transformed, fighting each other.

Harry sighed. "Well, if Sirius wasn't there in that moment when Lupin was transforming, who knows what would have happened? He tried to help stop him. Things would have been worse for us, changing it dramatically."

Lily looked to him with a smile. "Yeah, you're probably right."

"We're still going to save him, though."

She nodded. "Yeah."

"Wait, why isn't anything happening?" Hermione spoke out, causing the two to turn their attention back to her. Remus was heading towards Snape and Lily, ready to attack them. Wasn't something suppose to happen to cause Remus to take his attention away from them? Suddenly Hermione and remembered and began howling.

"What are you doing?" Ron asked.

"Getting his attention to save Professor Snape and Lily." She howled again, causing Remus to start sprinting towards them.

The gang ran into the forest to hide from the werewolf trying to track them down. It seemed like they were going to make it until Remus tried to attack Hermione, but Buckbeak came in at the last minute saving them. They ended up making their way to the lake where Harry, Sirius and Lily were.

They all watched as Lily tried to fend off the dementors for them, but had trouble. She began crying and then transformed right before their eyes into an Obscurial.

They all looked on with wide eyes as Lily fought back the familiar feelings associated with it. However once she transformed back and tried to help them, but falled over, Lily looked to the area they were standing in. "James is suppose to arrive soon."

The trio looked to her, confused. "What?"

"In this moment I saw a stag and..." She began to feel the tears coming to her eyes.

However, no one was arriving. They looked up to see the dementors making their way back to them and then, it hit her. Lily ran out towards the opposite side of the lake. "Expecto patornum!" The doe began to appear just like she saw, but how did it become a stag?

And just like that, she was surprised to see Harry right by her side. "Expecto Patornum!" He yelled as a stag began to come forth forming along with the doe. They watched as Lily passed out and then were saved by Snape, Ron and Hermione.

Lily looked to her son, smiling. "So it was you all along, huh?"

Harry shrugged. "No, it was both of us."

"Thank you." She replied, giving him a kiss on the cheek. "Even though I have memories of being your mother, I myself have never been one. At least yet. I'm still only 17." They both chuckled. "But I'll try."

Hermione and Ron looked to the both of them. "Sorry to interrupt the touching moment, but we need to go save Sirius from Azkaban. Only question is, how are we going to do it?"

After breaking Sirius out from prison and escaping away on Buckbeak, they all went back to the castle. It was then when they knew things would change for the better.

"I can't believe Lily Evans, the one who always got on me for breaking school rules, is now one to help me break out from prison." Sirius remarked, chuckling.

Lily stuck her tongue out at him. "I'm not how I used to be, that's for sure. In fact, I've broken some school rules myself." She was talking about her muggle school back in her world.

"I always knew you had a bit of a rebel streak in you. It's part of being a Gryffindor." Sirius took both Lily and Harry into a hug.

Hermione and Ron walked over to them with Buckbeak. "So what will you do now that you're free?" Ron asked.

"Surely, Azakban is already onto your breakout. They will try tracking you down again." Hermione pointed out.

Sirius sighed, nodding. "All I can do is hide, I suppose. But hopefully that will all change and I'll truly be a free man again someday."

"Why not have it happen right now?" Lily asked, smirking. She was hinting towards her big reveal. It was time to set everything right.

"You don't mean-"

"You, me, hop onto Buckbeak here and storm into the Ministry, proving your innocence with Lily Potter who was supposedly dead, but isn't anymore? No, that's crazy...but let's do it anyway!" Lily said, chuckling. There was that crazy rebellious streak in her going off again. After all, Dumbledore said she had to cause a scene.

Sirius looked to her with shock and amusement. "You are definetly different from the Lily I knew."

"Well, I am my own Lily after all. I just have the memories of the one you knew too." She reminded them before hoping onto the back of Buckbeak. She held out a hand for Sirius to take as he got on. "You guys got this?" Lily asked the trio.

Harry nodded. "Yeah, we will be okay. It's you two I'd be worried about. Be careful!"

"It's time things were set right here, first starting with setting an innocent man free." Lily turned to look at Sirius behind her. "You ready to finally get your innocence back?"

Sirius nodded. "You don't have to ask me twice."

And with that they both took off, heading to face the ministry and whatever would come their way. They knew they would probably be arrested or put on trial and they were ready to face it. Sometimes you had to have guts and nerve to show people a truth they refused to believe and even be reckless in order to prove it. It's part of being a Gryffindor.

A/N (again): Sorry this chapter is short. It's leading into a sort of new arc, but that means next chapter will be longer. :) I can't wait to see how Sirius and Lily go through with this! It will still be in the last part of The Prisoner of Azkaban, but with a twist.
