Hey! Batgirl here, just wanted to tell you to read my friend iceamethyst's story. It's really cool, good Lily/James flick! ************************************************************************

Survival

"LUMOS!" Shouted Harry and Sorcha together as the whipped out their wands.

The four looked around them. The big friendly hall that had looked so beautiful just minutes ago was now cold, menacing, looking like at any moment something would jump out of the shadows. They were all sweating, their throats dry and coarse. After what seemed like hours, Harry finally spoke:

"Wha.. what do we do now?" "We try to survive. Something's hunting us. We have to stay alive." Harry said "Ron, I'm scared!" Hermione said, hugging Ron so tight it made him lose his breath. "We all are, Hermione. Harry's right. We have to stay alive. There's one thing I don't know. How?" "Wait!" Hermione said, releasing herself from Ron, "I learned this." She flicked out her wand, "Proteculariducula!"

Hermione's wand suddenly got very, very long, and very, very gray. The top grew into a point, and the handle turned to metal. Hermione no longer held her wand, but a beautiful, silver sword.

"WOAH! HERMIONE! TURN MINE INTO A SWORD!" Ron shoved his wand into Hermione's hand, and made her turn it into a sword. Harry tried to turn his into a sword, but failed miserably. Sorcha didn't do much better. Hermione sighed, and ripped the wands out of Sorcha and Harry's hands. Ron's turned a beautiful copper color, Harry's turned gold, and Sorcha's turned silver.

Suddenly, a long, beautiful cry sounded from behind them. A beautiful red and gold bird swooped in. It was Fawks! He was looking rather mangled though, he had a huge gash down the side of his majestic face.

"Fawks! How did you..." Harry cried, but stopped as a piece of parchment fell out of Fawks's talon. Sorcha started stroking the bird as Harry read the parchment: Dear Reader, I have sent Fawks, my phoenix with a message. We are trapped in Hogwarts, someone has locked us in a dungeon that I have never seen before. Please help us.

Harry looked up from the parchment. "GUYS! COME HERE! DUMBLEDORE AND THE REST ARE IN TROUBLE!" everyone rushed over and read the parchment.

"Well, what can WE do? We don't know where they are." Ron commented. "Oh yes we do. Harry! The Marauder's Map!" Sorcha exclaimed. "BRILLIANT SORCHA!" Harry kissed Sorcha on the check, making Sorcha blush fiercely, and making Ron and Hermione laugh hysterically. "Ignore the two laughing gits Sorcha, let's go find the map! It's in my trunk!" Harry and Sorcha ran up to the boys dormitories, leaving Ron and Hermione trying to catch up with all their might.

Harry threw open the door, and started rummaging through his trunk. He grinned with happiness and pulled out the marauder's map.

"Harry! Harry Bring it here!" Ron said as he and Hermione finally caught up with Harry and Sorcha.

Harry threw it down on one of the common room tables. They looked and looked and looked for black dots. They found themselves, Fawks......... And Voldemort.



PHEW! HOW'S THAT FOR SCARY! Anyway, I'll continue in a bit!

Thanks- **Batgirl**
