are the specific details of the plot and characteristics of the characters.
Prologue
Lily Evans was an unusual teenage girl in many ways. For one thing, she hated summer holidays more than any other time of year. For another, she really wanted to do her homework, but was forced to do it in secret in the dead of night. She also happened to be a witch. A muggle-born witch who would be entering her seventh and last year at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.
There were two reasons that Lily hated the summer. One was that she missed Hogwarts, her friends, and even her classes. The other was that for the summer, Lily was forced to share a room with her sister, Petunia, who hated her.
Lily and Petunia had been best friends all through their childhood. They agreed on almost everything. They were only a year apart in age. They would play together and dress alike. With the two girls and their loving parents, the neighbors all thought that the Evans family was a perfect one.
This changed however, the summer before Lily entered sixth grade. On her eleventh birthday, an owl arrived at her window inviting her to Hogwarts. She had been shocked and excited, and her parents felt the same way. They were proud. Not Petunia though. Petunia had turned on her sister, saying she was a freak. Petunia started to hang out more and more with her friends from school, and Lily almost never saw her.
This summer though, Lily saw Petunia much more. Mr. and Mrs. Evans had decided that because Lily was rarely ever home, her room would be turned into a library. This had forced Lily to share a room with Petunia, and hence her homework was done at night to avoid her sister's sneering comments about magic.
The only thing that was keeping Lily sane was the thought that in two weeks she would be back at Hogwarts. She would be among her friends and learn more about magic. She would be with her boyfriend, Frank Longbottom every day! The only bad thing about returning to school was James Potter. Potter was a showoff and a total jerk to anyone who was not a Marauder. Ugh!!!
"Oh well," Lily thought. "He knows that I hate him. And ever since that incident with Snape after our DADA OWL Exam, he has stayed away from me. It's getting late. I should go to bed." So after turning her thoughts away from James Potter she rolled over and went to sleep, not knowing that somewhere not too far away, James Potter was sitting up thinking about her.
AN: I know that the beginning is the same as PoA. I did not make it up. I wish that I had!!! Anyways, I thought it would be cute to start Lily's story in a way similar to that of Harry's own story! (
