Sleeping in her house on Sun-rivers drive a startled 17 year old Lily Evens awoke. Sitting up in her bed out of breath and sweating she realized it was all a dream. Trying to cling on to every detail of the dream, she stood up and went to examine her body. Noticing she didn't have wings and that she was still her average height, she brushed her fiery red hair out of her eyes. She was shaking with fear, and confusion. Thoughts were rushing past her bewildered mind. That was the first time she had ever seen her mother in a clear picture since her death. Walking over to her still warm bed she flaccidly landed on it, still keeping the picture of her mother. She was tempted to send a letter to Dumbledore explaining the strange vision she had had. Why had she seen her dream in such detail why was she seeing memories from the past. Wondering about everything at that moment she got up once again and slowly walked out the room staring at the floor as she walked, not noticing Petunia as she bumped into her outside of the door.
"Watch it Lily."
"Sorry Petunia." said Lily not really caring about her sister at the moment. She had put up with her for the last three and a half years after their mother and sister died. Olive was killed by Voldemort on Halloween when Lily was 14 and Chloe died shortly after when she tired to block Lily from getting killed by Voldemort when he turned on her. Her magic was useless and she was killed instantaneously. Lily remembered these details vaguely, but after the dream they screamed aloud inside her tousled mind. Still thinking about why she had seen that exact moment in time she sat down at the kitchen table. Petunia now entered the kitchen looking furious at Lily.
"I suppose you think it's alright to just bump into me." "You best show me respect Lily, after all I do take care of you."
"You don't do anything for me." spat Lily in uncontrollable rage. She sat and looked at her sister trying to get eye contact. Lily could tell Petunia knew this was a fact and didn't want to look at her sister.
"You know you don't." screamed Lily as tears inconsolably ran down her face. "You know you don't." she said this in the softest whisper as she looked at the floor. Petunia then turned around and looked at her sister.
"Your pathetic Lily, why they let you into that stupid school is beyond me, you're not brave at all." she then went back to making herself breakfast. Lily got up from the table, she was about to say something about their mother but the thought of it made her eyes water. Instead she silently walked back to her bedroom, planning on writing a letter to Dumbledore.
That evening after spending a whole day secluded in her room, Lily went for a walk to get away from the miserable thoughts and her sisters annoying antics. She swiftly slid through the loose board in the fence, and cut across the path leading to town. She was heading to the forest she often used to play in with Chloe. Reaching the forests edge she was a bit apprehensive to enter the deep depths. Echoing in her head was what Petunia said earlier about her not being brave. She realized she didn't want Petunia to be right. She grasped on to all the courage she had and stepped inside. The humid air enclosed her lungs and the soft breeze of blossoms floated through her hair. Remembering too well what it was like when she was little she wanted to sit there forever with Chloe. She walked on through the forest. Eerie glows of light were casting shadows on the trees. Almost like she was being guided Lily walked on in a trance. Leaving all her thoughts behind she kept on walking….walking….walking. SMACK!!! Lily had collided with a tree, and had fallen to the ground. Getting up Lily looked a little dazed; she shook her head and realized where she was. Rubbing her eyes and pinching herself, trying to interpret if this was another vision. To her surprise it wasn't, right in front of her was the huge oak tree she saw in her dream last night. It looked just like it did in the dream. Lily stepped closer to the tree and ran her hand around the hole she once called home. Suddenly she was tumbling through speeding light and screaming filled her ears. Falling to the hard cold ground, Lily was now in another vision. This time she was further ahead in time. Lily sat there motionless, scared to get up. She slowly rolled herself on her side to watch what was going on. She then saw her mother once again this time she looked a little older and her face told Lily that something terrible was going on. Lily supported all her weight as she tried to get up. She managed it with much effort. Looking around at where she was she noticed it was in her newer house. She desperately looked around for her mother she noticed that she had lost her when she tried to get up. Then she heard a loud piercing scream, with a look of horror on her face Lily ran towards the noise. Clouds of mist swirled past her and she then fell into another vision. She was still in her house, but she seemed to be in a new room. Shaking with fear and tears pouring down her face she saw her mother dead on the ground. She ran over to her mother and kneeled down beside her, now shaking hysterically and screaming. She shook her mother screaming at her to wake up, but she lay there lifeless. Lily then heard a high pitched laugh. She turned away from her dead mother and saw Voldemort staring her right in the eyes. She watched his hard bitter face staring at her, looking almost like a snake as he hissed out a weird language. She got up and noticed he didn't look at her. She then figured out that she couldn't be seen. Lily's stomach lurched with fear and she fell to the ground to weak to move. Light flashed by her and mist swirled through her mind she then found herself face first on the ground in front of the oak tree. Lily lay there for a long time. She was unable to move. Her legs were numb with pain and she was blind with fear. She had just witnessed her mother dying. She had never actually seen her mother die. Lily slowly got up, trying so hard to keep herself steady. When she was standing it had just hit her that it was dark. Sick with fear and tears still silently falling down her cheeks she headed towards home. When she got there she noticed that Petunia was already asleep. Quickly and quietly Lily ascended the stairs to her room.
Authors note: Sorry that this chapter was so short. I'm hoping that chapter 3 will be longer.
