It was a week later, Lily was had cried her heart out and had no tears left.

She was miserable, she was out of the Hospital Wing and slept in her dorm, and also went to classes now, but it did her no good.

Everyone thought she was better off back in the Hospital Wing.

She was pale and weak, and sad. She never cracked a smile anymore.

James looked at her face one day in Potions, and was startled at her face.

Lily looked tired and she had red eyes. James thought how beautiful she looked when she was happy, or even angry.

It seemed that she would never be those two things again.

******

Lily couldn't sleep, she was tired, but she was miserable.

She left the castle and wandered down by the lake, which is just outside the Forbidden Forest.

She sank down into the grass and stuck her wand in the grass.

Lily curled up and buried her face in her knees.

There was a howl from somewhere just outside the forest.

Lily looked up, then took her wand.

"Lumos," she mumbled and stuck the wand back into the grass.

There was another howl, this time louder, and even more close, but Lily didn't care, she continued burying her face in her knees.

******

James heard a howl from his dorm.

He frowned, and got out of bed.

There was another howl.

"Oh no," muttered James, "Don't tell me Moony's got out of the Shrieking Shack...."

He ran over to Sirius' bed.

"Padfoot!" he hissed, "Get up! Moony's out of the shack!"

"Whadisit?" mumbled Sirius, rolling over and falling back asleep.

James cursed and heard a faint scream outside.

He ran to the window and saw a figure with black robes, wand in hand, backing away from a werewolf.

James squinted his eyes and saw red wavy hair.

"Oh my God what is Lily doing out there?" James almost yelled.

He opened the window and grabbed his broom.

He flew out just below, then he got off his broom and changed into a stag, and ran over to the werewolf.

He tackled the werewolf, pushing it over with his front legs.

Lily gasped as she saw this, she thought how beautiful this stag was, then came to her senses and realised she should run.

With one grateful look at the stag, Lily ran off towards the castle, welcomed with the warm lights from inside.

The werewolf howled, very loudly, and scratched at the stag.

The stag and the werewolf fought for a few seconds, then a black shaggy dog came running and with all it's strength knocked the werewolf to the ground

The stag, exhausted, collapsed to the ground.

The dog bit the werewolf really hard, and it was knocked out.

The black, shaggy dog dragged the werewolf into the Shrieking Shack, and then ran over to the stag.

******

Sirius rubbed some potion on James' scratches, who winced and got up slowly.

"Relax Prongs," said Sirius, frowning, "You'll be fine."

James frowned, then lay back down, letting his friend attend to his wounds.
