*The Magic That Could Save Them All*
Chapter 2: Explosions of Anger
As soon as Lily fled the compartment, James became the recipient of a huge lecture from all of his friends.
"How could you say that to her?"
"You deserve what you got"
"If you ever do that again, James Potter, you'll regret being born"
"That was so mean"
"Go out there and bring her back. NOW!!!!!"
"Okay, okay" replied James, as he stood up and walked out of the compartment. He found Lily sitting against the wall, with her head down.
"I'm sorry I made you cry, Lily." James said. Lily lifted her head up and, to his surprise she wasn't crying after all. Her eyes had changed to a sharper shade of green, and were narrowed in a way that could only mean one thing. She was still incredibly pissed.
"Are you serious? I would never cry over something like that. I wouldn't waste my time. You deserved what you got. All you've done since I met you was make fun of me and provoke me, knowing that I wouldn't act upon my feelings of hatred. I will never allow that again. Now leave me alone, Potter. I have not the patience for you."
"Everyone wants you back in the compartment" James said.
" Fine" Lily stood up and opened the compartment door. She took her usual seat, next to the window. The conversation turned to what they did over the summer.
" I spent the summer at the Potter mansion" Sirius said. " Someone could get lost in that place.
" I stayed at home" Peter said.
"I went to the beach" Allison said.
" We went to muggle camp" said Melissa and Elizabeth.
"I visited America" said Remus
" I stayed with my cousin in her castle" said Lily.
"Castle?" asked James, who was making a conscious effort to be nicer.
"Yeah, it's a medieval castle. It's been in the family forever. My cousin taught me ancient magic there."
"I thought ancient magic was something you had to be born with. Not taught. And ones who are born with it are very rare. Only four every 300 years".
"Well, I was born with it. I just didn't know how to use it. Now I do" Lily said. " I wonder if there is anyone at Hogwarts who was born with ancient magic." All of the Marauders got worried looks on their faces.
"What's wrong with you guys?" asked Melissa
"Nothing" said Remus, a little too quickly. The train slowed to a stop.
"This is it, lets go" said James
