She looked down, and what she saw shocked her to the core.

Lily's arms were covered in red spots. She watched as they turned from spots to a rash. She watched them in wonder until she realized she was breaking out in a rash. Probably from her allergies and the cat fur she was lying on. "Hehtchoo!" She groaned, and immediately realized that groaning was a huge mistake. She went into a full blown coughing fit, and then into a sneezing fit. When she was finally finished, the clock said it was 8:30AM. Time for potions. Crystal and Maisy would be waiting for her. With a huge sigh, she exited the common room.

Before turning the corner to the Dungeons, Lily nervously fidgeted with her robes, trying to get them to cover up her rash. It was just allergies after all. Slughorn beamed at the sight of his favourite Year 1 student. "Ms Evans! There you are, just in time to be introduced to veritaserum. Here are the instructions and ingredients, and these are your pairs: Evans and Snape, Davies and Malfoy, Kellen and Keely, Gunder and Patros, ….." As Slughorn rattled on, Lily's vision swam, and she would have collapsed if she wasn't sitting in a chair already. Since she was, she flopped onto the table, head pounding, nose tickling and throat burning. As she stirred the potion and Severus went to get the last of the ingredients, She felt her head thump hard, and as she tried to stop it pounding, she leant on the stick and stopped stirring. "Ms Evans! You must not stop stirring for 10 minutes, otherwise the potion won't work and-Mr Snape! What happened?" Severus had been so busy looking at Lily that he hadn't looked where he was going, and he had crashed into Rokaree's cauldron. Rokaree was known for being the worst potion maker in the history of Hogwarts, and in this case, he had made a burning potion instead of veritaserum. Severus was covered in boils from where the potion had spilled, and when he left for the hospital Wing he was a whimpering mess. James Potter and his cronies snickered. Lily would have told them off, but her head told her not to and her nose and throat were burning and tickling at the same time, and before she could stop herself, she went into full blown coughing and sneezing fit at the same time " Hehtchoo! *Cough cough cough*Hehtchoo! *Cough cough*Hehtchoo! *Cough cough cough* Hehtchoo! *Cough* Hehtchoo! *Cough cough cough*Hehtchoo! *Cough cough cough*, heh…*Cough cough cough*..heh….Heh…*Cough cough cough*..HEH….HEHTCHOOOOOOOOOOO-*Cough cough cough*" The potion turned an angry shade of red, and before she knew it, the potion had blown up in her face. She stood there, stunned until her body sprang into action once more as a cat landed on her face, terrified by the sound. "*Cough cough cough**Cough cough cough**Cough cough cough* Hehchoo! Hehtchoo! Hehtchoo! HEH…HEH..HEHTCHOOOO!" Slughorn gasped "Ms Evans! Whatever happened to your face?" Lily looked in a mirror, and gasped. Her face was red, covered in rashes from the cat. She glanced at her legs. They were covered in rashes too. In the bathroom, she touched one of the rashes and nearly screamed in pain. It was extremely painful. She gulped, washed her face and continued the day.

By the end of the week, Lily had had enough. She hadn't gotten any sleep for the whole week, and she had blown up 5/7 cauldrons. She had lost her feather 6 times, and her transfiguration was incomplete and overdue due to the fact she kept sneezing on it and ruining it. The fact that her rashes made every movement she made hurt didn't help either. She sighed and went to breakfast. Breakfast was in full swing when she got down. She took her normal place between her friends, and ate 1 bite of her toast before her stomach churned. She felt light headed and dizzy, and in another world. It was only when she felt Milei rub against her that her body and Samirah gently hoot and peck at her check did she snap pout of her trance. She felt her sinuses clog, her ears nearly bursting with the pressure, her nose running and tickling her. She barely heard herself nearly hack her lungs out, but she definitely felt her throat burn and her lungs close up. She could barely breathe, and as she tried to croak out for help, her head spun and then her world went black.
