Lily was sitting in a compartment, on her own, James was off pranking someone with Sirius, Remus and Peter, and Belle and Honey were meeting some friends. And truth be told Lily liked being on her own, she just in silence and thought about her parents, how much she missed them, how much she wished she could say good bye, and how much she hated Voldemort for killing them. Tears fell from her emerald eyes occasionally.

"Evans?" A timid voice said from the doorway, Lily turned and was surprised to find Severus Snape standing there.

"Severus." Lily said she smiled softly at the boy; he was in her year, but a Slytherin, however he was a prefect.

"Could I please sit in here?" He asked somewhat cautiously, as if he were fearful someone might jump out at him.

"Yes, of course, James is off somewhere." Lily said, knowing all to well that the pair had issues.

Snape nodded and sat down opposite Lily, his black hair hung like curtains over his face, greasy as always, his hooked nose and black eyes made him look very intimidating, but Lily didn't fear him at all.

"So erm how are you?" Lily asked trying to fill the uncomfortable silence that was threatening to consume them for the rest of the ride.

"I'm ok." Severus answered. "I heard about your parents. I'm sorry."

Lily's eyes watered.

"Thank you." She said her voice was barely a whisper. Severus nodded and said on more.

Time flew by, the sky darkened and stars begun to shine.

"The station." Lily said quietly as they pulled into the station.

The train slowed down then came to a sudden stop; the air was tense, bitter cold and menacing. Something wasn't right. It was too quite, the sounds of living creatures were gone, not owls or other birds, not bats, or cats. Something was very wrong. The dark town was deafeningly silent, no merry cheers from the Three Broomsticks, or grumbles from the Hogs Head. The shadows were darker than normal, threatening, and moving. 'Shadows don't move.' Lily thought to herself, and then screamed. She ran to the corridors.

"EVERYONE STAY IN YOUR COMPARTMENT! PREFECTS GET TO THE HEAD COMPARMENT NOW!" Lily screamed, small children ran to a compartment and prefects ran to the heads.

"Lily what is it?" Nick asked Lily frantically.

"Deatheaters." Lily said whipping out her wand. "Everyone has to remain on the train. I'm going to find anyone who will help, and send at least several owls."

The redhead ran out of the compartment and down the train to the nearest compartment with an owl in.

"Hey, I need to use your owl, write a letter for me. Send it to Dumbledore. The train is under attack." The second year Hufflepuff nodded fearfully then started writing the letter, Lily ran further down the train and gave similar instructions to another student.

She carried on with this until eventually she reached James, Sirius, Remus, Belle, Honey and Peter.

"What going on Lily?" James asked grabbing hold of Lily's shoulders.

"Deatheaters. I don't think they will attack while we're on the train, it's protected." Lily said quickly then looked out of the window. "SHIT!" Lily cried out. The Deatheaters were nearing the train and holding out their wands. Lily once again stepped into the corridor.

"EVERYONE GET DOWN ONTO THE FLOOR!" She screamed along the corridor, she herself dropping to the floor beside her friends.

"The train can't hold off this many attacks." Lily cried out to James as they covered their heads, the train was literally shaking with the force of curses hitting it.

"Lily don't worry, we'll make it through." James said, but Lily shook her head.

"I need to go James." Lily said, Belle and Honey yelled out, Sirius shouted that she was mad. But they all knew deep down she could be right. Grabbing James' face Lily kissed him softly on the lips and then stood up.

Before he could reach out and stop her, Lily had the door flung open and was standing on the platform, locking the door behind her, prefects and seventh years alike were banging on the window, trying to get Lily back, but it was no use.

The rain poured down, stinging Lily's pale skin, her hair and clothes were soaked through, sticking to her skin.

"Leave!" Lily yelled at the Deatheaters. "It's me you want, take me then go." Lily said, her voice was cracking but she still had her head held high and looked fierce.

"But Miss Evans, why would we only take you, we could destroy the future, every magical child in England is right here." One of the Deatheaters drawled.

"Because you want me." Lily said, her grip on her wand tightening.

"And you'll just hand yourself over?" Another Deatheater asked.

"If it'll save my friends." Lily shouted.

"Love! What a weakness." Spat a cold voice from just behind the line of Deatheaters.

Lily gulped.

"Miss Evans, I could just kill you now." Voldemort drawled, stepping towards Lily.

Banging on the windows and screams intensified from the train, one louder then them all.

"LILY! LILY! DON'T DO THIS!" It was James, she could tell without even looking.

"No I think I might keep you for myself." Voldemort said then grabbed hold of Lily, just in time for Dumbledore to appear. He took one look at sight before him and nearly broke. He took a step forward, but Voldemort vanished, taking Lily Evans with him.

She had been staring at James, and just before she was taken she said one thing.

"I love you." And James had heard it.

All on the train went silent, the locking spell broke and James fell onto the platform, everyone watched him and he screamed at the cold concrete on his hands and knees. He punched and hit the stone, to no avail.

"LILY!" He screamed, but it didn't bring her back.

His tears and blood mixed in with the rain, from where he had split the skin on his hands.

"Lily, I love you." James croaked to the floor, and then collapsed, unable to bear the pain any longer.
