Chapter Eight- How Dumbledore Knew
Lily was shaking all over. Remus grabbed her hand gracefully, calming her. James held her shoulders and they stood up. Peter woke, and stood. He staggered and Firenz helped steady him. The group tried to return themselves to a somewhat 'normal' stature. Dumbledore distributed chocolate among the group. They felt the warmth brought on by the chocolate and immediately felt better. Sirius was still standing in shock. The man was going to kill them. He had raised his wand and had been about to say Avada Kedavra. Sirius shivered.
"Professor, what happened?" asked a groggy Peter. At this Firenz shuddered. Something about Peter was not right. Firenz sensed what the others were blind to, Peter knew exactly what had happened. "My children, come with me. Even those who saw it may not know what has happened here tonight." he trailed off, sorrow in his voice. They followed Dumbledore to the castle. It offered a false sense of security. They had all felt safe, even when the world around them was being torn apart, at Hogwarts. But yet, they had all almost died on the castle grounds. Peter shook his head painfully. He had always known, since that fateful summer in France three years ago(I am not sure if I wrote this already in previous chpts. But if the amount is wrong, tell me!), that one of his best friends would die. But the reality finally hitting had been too much. His master had been in the woods, and he had shown no mercy for Peter. Peter would have died with the rest of them.
Do not doubt me, young Wormtail, do not doubt me. It shall be your demise, your end, a voice chimed in his ears. Peter nodded, having no idea if Voldemort could hear or understand him. He hung his head in shame.

This is what happened in the castle during the Run. So basically like three hours earlier!
Snape watched Lily leave the hospital wing. He had had a small crush on Lily once. When they were in second year, there was something about her. She was gorgeous. There was something, what is the word, REAL about her. She hardly wore make-up and she wasn't stick thin. Her hair was a flaming red, and frankly it was everywhere. It wasn't frizzy just, thick. She was unlike anything seen at Hogwarts. But that was over, he had found Robin. He didn't really like Robin. She was mean. Never to Severus, he wouldn't take that, but she was a complete brat around other people. He watched her pick up a piece of parchment. He heard her mutter the words about her little friends and he had himself a plot for revenge. Severus ran up to a staircase, "Yarvio!" He jumped on the staircase and it changed. He flew up to the teachers dorms and banged on one of the doors. A tall menacing, but weak looking, professor answered the door. "Mr. Snape, to what do I owe the honor of YOU, being out of bed at night? Hmmm?" Professor Dunn inquired. Severus kept his cool, "I, sir, was only trying to protect our fine school from trouble. Mr. Potter and his little band of misfits are out again sir. I was only warning." Dunn's eyes got suddenly wide as he ran to his desk, pulling out a lunar chart. "Oh my! Severus get to bed immediately. Do not try to find James and his friends, do you understand me?" Severus nodded, obviously bewildered. Professor Dunn ran past quickly. He ran to Dumbledore's office. "Professor, it is Remus! James and the others are with him!" whatever Dumbledore was expecting, that wasn't it. "Are you quite sure? Dunn, are you positive? James is out of the castle?" Dunn nodded and Dumbledore ran thorough a wall. Severus did a double-take. Dumbledore had ran through a wall like a ghost. Professor Dunn now turned to Severus, "You shall speak of this to no one! Understand?" Snape nodded, a bit scared. Ever since Sirius had played that prank on him the year before, he had been trying to find a way to get him in trouble. But his plans had been foiled, once again. (oops, cliché!) Dumbledore ran down the steps of the castle towards the clearing where he knew they were. He noticed the moon, hidden beneath clouds, relief flooded him. Remus was human, at least. He kept up his pace, sensing urgency in the air. He reached the clearing, the scene unfolding before his eyes. A man in the shadow began to shout Avada Kedavra when Dumbledore ran in. The man cowered and apparated out of the clearing. The only man with the ability to do so, was none other than Lord Voldemort himself.
I know it sounds a little like the Draco stunt in the first book, but I needed it for the plot!! Review please!
