Lily searched the whole school and the grounds for Sirius all that next
day, but she couldn't find him. He'd even skipped all his lessons. She
realised he must be avoiding her, and she wondered what she had to do in
any of this?
She met James several times that day but she didn't have time for him. She didn't care anymore, but she still wanted to know why Sirius was acting all strange.
The next lesson was divination. Lily knew that Professor Kymber was a little… strange, but then she heard rumours that all the divination teachers in Hogwarts had been a little wacky, an anyway, she loved the subject.
Lily went into the room and scanned it for Terra and Poppy. Fiona had refused to take the class because she didn't believe that you could tell the future from crystal balls and stars (although she had believed she was a witch when she and her muggle-parents had read the letter!)
Poppy beckoned Lily over. Poppy was in Hufflepuff, and had become friends with Terra and Lily when they had all taken divination together.
'Hi Lils. You all right?' she said anxiously. Lily glared at Terra.
Terra put her hands up. 'Sorry, Lil! But she would've found out about you and James soon enough anyway.'
'How d'ya mean?' asked Lily suspiciously.
Terra looked awkward. 'Well…you, me, Poppy, Fiona, Sirius, Peter, Remus and James all know…and…and I told George as well…'
'What?!' Lily exploded. George was Poppy's best friend and he and Terra had just recently been going out.
Lily sighed. 'Oh well. Who cares anyway?' she muttered, and scribbled something in her notebook.
Terra and Poppy exchanged glances, but said nothing.
Lily frowned at something she had absent-mindedly drew and crossed it out angrily. She had been thinking about stuff and had drawn a heart with L.E.&J.P. in it. Lily tore off the piece of paper from her notebook, ripped it up, screw it tightly into a ball and threw it in the bin angrily and with such force that made everyone look at her.
Lily smiled embarrassedly and sat back down slowly.
Terra winked at Poppy and, when lily wasn't looking, retrieved the paper from the bin with a spell. She and Poppy looked at under the table and frowned.
Then Poppy smiled. 'I knew Lily still liked him!' she whispered.
'Huh?' said Lily looking up from her notebook. 'What was that? You said my name.'
Poppy was never very good at telling lies, and this wasn't one of her best moments. 'Oh…well…I was just saying to Terra… "Do you like LILLIES Terra?" and…um…yeah. So we never said your name, you name wasn't mentioned, uh- huh.'
Lily raised an eyebrow but didn't get the chance to say anything because at that moment Professor Kymber walked in. Poppy looked at Terra apologetically and Terra rolled her eyes.
'Good afternoon, class,' she said sadly. 'But alas, this is not such a good afternoon for some, surely…'
Everyone looked worried and began whispering.
'Settle down, class!' said Kymber impatiently. This silenced the whole room, as Kymber was never cross with them and never got angry.
'I'm afraid that I've had some bad news, so I'm not in the best of moods today.' She walked round to her desk and sat down at her chair with a heavy sigh.
One girl called Oxy (or Foxy Oxy to most of the boys) in Hufflepuff bravely put her hand up. 'Professor? What was the bad news? Is it really bad?' Everyone looked at Kymber anxiously.
Kymber nodded her head gravely. 'I'm afraid so… I heard it through the stars when I was gazing at them last night…' suddenly Kymber stood up briskly. 'But come now, let's start the lesson, shall we? Get your books out please.'
There were a few disappointed moans and everyone got their books out.
'I'm afraid I don't quite feel up to a practical lesson today, children. Instead, please read your copies of "The Great Beyond" and take down notes from chapters 8 and 9.'
She sat down at her desk again, got her own personal crystal ball out, and gazed into it sadly.
'God…I wonder what's wrong?' Terra said frowning.
'I don't know. But it must be really bad. She wasn't even this sad when she predicted Professor Larns going, and he died the next day!' remembered Poppy.
Lily said nothing. She was staring at Kymber pensively (a/n: that word should be used lots!).
'Lily? Lily?' said Terra. 'You're supposed to get youu copy of "The Great Beyond" out. Lily?'
But Lily wasn't listening. I wonder what it is? She thought. What could be worse than seeing Old Lams death in a dream. Then Kymber looked straight into Lily's eyes, and Lily jumped slightly. They stared into each other's eyes. Kymber seemed to be trying to tell her something. Her eyes were glistening knowledgably.
Lily stood up. I know what it is, she thought suddenly. It's something to do with me. I can see it in her eyes. Lily walked over to Kymber's desk. The class noticed and grew silent, watching Lily as she went. Her footsteps were loud and slow, and she could feel her heart beating so loudly and quickly, she was worried everyone could hear it.
'What is it?' Lily asked quietly.
'I really don't think…'
'I have a right to know.'
Kymber looked awkward. 'Maybe we should discuss this later…' Lily looked hard into Professor Kymber's eyes.
Suddenly Lily had a picture in her head. She was in a room. She could see her parents, Kelly and Matthew Evans, sitting in chairs, watching the Tv. And there was her sister, Petunia, sitting in the opposite side of the room. They were certainly looking at the Tv screen, but it was turned off.
'Mum? Dad? Petunia?' asked Lily slowly. 'What's going on?' No one spoke. Then a black dog walked round from behind the Tv. It was now standing in front of it. The dog seemed to be smiling, although Lily couldn't really tell…and, it had red eyes…
Suddenly the dog jumped at Lily's parents and Lily screamed.
She opened her eyes again and found she was shaking. Kymber stood up. 'Lily…I'm so sorry…' but Lily backed away from her, holding her hands on her head.
'No…no…' she kept saying.
'Lily? What's wrong? Professor Kymber, what's happening?' asked Terra demandedly. But Kymber just shook her head and sat down again.
1 They can't be…they can't be… Lily thought, and ran from the classroom crying.
