(A/N: Have nothing to say here, enjoy!)
"Ok dear, are you ready to go?" Lily opened her eyes and she
saw Madam Pomfrey talking to Remus who looked very pale. "Lets go."
And they left. Lily sat up and looked over to the beds next to her.
Teagan was one Lily's left; she had horrible purple boiled on her neck
and cheeks. They were covering with a think clear gel. Sirius was past
Teagan with what looked like scratches but they were a deep brown
color and last there was Snape, who looked worst by far. His face was
covered with think guaze and a chunky crimson lotion could be seen
under it. Lily saw the green colored spots all over her skin. There
was no pain but she was disgusted by the look of her skin. She pulled
her auburn hair into a neat ponytail and she looked out the window at
the Whomping Willow and blinked. She couldn't' believe what she was
seeing. Madam Pomfrey and Remus had frozen the tree and had
disappeared in the trunk of it. Lily furrowed her brow and looked out
the window expectantly. She turned back to her bed and she saw that
the green spots on her body had almost completed gone away. Sirius
had woken up and the scratches had vanished from his skin also.
"Sirius!" Lily began "You'll never believe what I just saw!" Sirius
looked at her questioningly but she never got a chance to explain
because Madam Pomfrey had come back and declared them better and she
sent them back to Griffindor tower. "What did you see?" Asked Sirius
"Oh," Lily said, she couldn't believe she'd forgotten "I saw Remus and
Madam Pomfrey go into the Whomping Willow." Sirius's eyes darted at
Lily then away from her. "I'm sure it was nothing" he said as they
entered the common room that was very much deserted but a complete
disaster. From the looks of the common room, Griffindor must have won
the Quidditch game. "Well, goodnight Lily." Sirius said and Lily
turned to go up the staircase to the girl's dormitories. Once she
turned the corner she heard voices that made her stop dead. "Sirius,
are you feeling better? And Lily? How's she doing?" Sirius scowled
"I'm fine, and so is Lily. But James, I think she might know about
Remus." "She what? How?" "She saw Madam Pomfrey take him to the
Whomping Willow." A squeak was issued from Peter, but James interfered,
"Well, nothing can be done about it now. Let's go, we've got to get to
Remus soon." Lily looked around the corner of the wall and she saw
James throw a cloak looking object over himself, Sirius and Peter, and
they disappeared. Lily looked after them and she saw the Portrait Door
open and close. Lily ran to a window facing the Whomping Willow in the
common room and looked out. She soon saw James, Sirius and Peter
appear out of nowhere next to the tree. But when Lily blinked they
were gone. Instead an enormous Black Dog, a huge Stag and some sort of
very small rodent that Lily couldn't make out. "How did they..." Lily
began but it soon dawned on her "They're animagus!" she breathed. They
all disappeared into the tree as Remus had. Before Lily could stop
herself she was out the Portrait Hole and heading outside. She was
lucky that she didn't meet the caretaker or any teacher who might be
walking around at night. Soon Lily stepping outside in the chilly
spring air, the ground was very wet from the storm a couple of days
ago. Lily ran all the way to the tree, she looked around for a long
stick and prodded the knock she saw the small animal touch. The tree
froze and a large piece of the tree's base fell away and Lily climbed
through it. She saw a damp, narrow tunnel and she moved forward. Lily
pulled out her wand and muttered "Lumos." And continued down the
tunnel. She heard barking and then an unearthly howl that made Lily's
neck prickle. "Those are my friends." Lily continued to tell herself
and she came to a patch of light and she went through the opening she
looked around and saw she was in a very disorder room, she heard
large animals moving in the other room. She crossed the floor
soundlessly and opened the door Lily couldn't believe the sight that
filled her eyes. The Stag stood closest to her, the god was across
the room, the small creature had turned out to be a rat and the 4th
animal was a full-grown werewolf. Lily stared at them and they stared
back. Then many things happened at once. The stag had lowered his
head, catching Lily n the prongs of his antlers and pushed her into
the other room. The werewolf leaped at Lily but the black dog put
himself between him and Lily and they started to fight. Booming barks,
howls and yelps of pain filled the air as the stag pushed Lily through
the tunnel. When they got to the opening of the tunnel to the Whomping
Willow. The Stag set her down and transformed into James. "Lily," he
was breathing fast "Please wait for me here. I'll explain everything."
Lily nodded silently and she waited. A good 10 minutes later James
returned looking shaken but grateful that she was still there. "Lily,"
he said, "Come here." And he motioned for her to come under a cloak
that Lily recognized as an invisibility cloak. Lily did so and they
walked all the way up to Griffindor Tower without a word between them.
James took Lily to the boy's dormitories, up to his room and they both
left the confinement of the cloak. James shut the door behind him.
"Lily, I," James began "No" Lily interrupted "No, was that Remus? Our
Remus? Remus is a werewolf?" James nodded solemnly. "And you're an
Animagi?" James nodded again. James walked over and sat on his bed
leaning up against the headboard. "When we, that is to say, Sirius,
Peter and I found out that Remus was a werewolf we began to think
about making the Animagus potion. It took a better part of 5 years to
actually make it. We are animagi because we want to be with Remus
during his change. It keeps him from hurting himself and he's not as
exhausted as he usually is after it." Lily had crawled up onto James's
bed and was sitting next to him. "James?" she asked "Hmm?" he asked
"You saved my life back there. Remus would have killed me." James then
did something he had never done before, he wrapped his arms around her
and hugged her. Lily scooted downward so she could use his chest as a
pillow. "Thank you." Lily mumbles "Anything for you." James replied
but Lily had fallen asleep. James brushed her hair from her face
"Anything for you."
* * * * *
"Good morning James!" called a voice from across the room.
"Why didn't you come back to the Shrieking Shack?" asked Sirius from
the other end of the room. Lily blinked a few times until she realized
this wasn't a dream. Thoughts raced through her head. "I spent the
night with James in his bed!" She looked over at James who was still
asleep. "James?" Sirius asked as he grabbed a handful of the drapes
surrounding the bed and pulled them aside. "You coming to oh my GOSH!"
Sirius threw the drapes closed "No Sirius!" Lily called and leapt out
of the bed after him while James saw up "What's going on?" he asked
groggily.
