Lily slowly looked around herself. She was standing on the top of the North tower. The tallest tower in the school. All around her she could see life. She could see things that she didn't deserve to see. The forbidden forest teeming with plants and animals, the grounds full of a certain joie de vivre, the castle that was magic and life in itself. So many beautiful things that weren't fit for her eyes to lay sight on.
I should never have been born. All that my life has brought has been sorrow and disappointment. There's nothing special about me, I'm not smart, I'm not pretty, I have no friends and I have no talents. My life has only been a waste of breath in this world. Lily bitterly thought as she gazed unseeingly at the sky which was darkening into a deep navy which reflected the girls' dark sombre mood. Lily gasped as the first drop of rain touched her upturned face the coolness and sweetness of it contrasting with the darkness of her mood. The wind blew up around her frail body and whipped her hair back as Lily opened her eyes and whispered "Goodbye."
Lily silently took out her wand and murmured a spell. Suddenly instead of holding a wand Lily held a knife. Lily gazed silently at the knife with a certain reverence. It had a curved silver blade which was oddly reminiscent of the wand which she had held, moments earlier. The willow hilt was encrusted with emerald jewels surrounded by silver settings. Lily looked over the tower edge at the ground miles below. She slowly and deliberately held the dagger to her chest and with a last breath she thrust it home. As if in slow motion, Lily slowly gasped and then slumped to the ground as her life blood seeped out of her. She closed her eyes for the last time and she knew no more.

James was walking down the hall to Charms which was first that day. He was silently laughing in his head as he remembered Severus Snape's and Lucious Malfoy's faces when they had been turned into girls that morning at breakfast. Those two Slytherins were James and his friends worst enemies, so it was with undoubtedly fitting sentiments with which the boys, who called themselves 'The Marauders' had pulled the prank. Suddenly he froze, in his mind's eye he could see a deathly frightening picture. A girl with red hair lay in a pool of her own life's blood; an emerald encrusted hilt jutting out of her chest, stark against the red of her blood and the navy of the sky.
James knew that he had to help the girl from the image. With an unnerving surety James ran up corridors and across halls with calls of "Sorry about that!", "Coming through!" or simply "Excuse me!" Finally James stopped short in front of the oak door to the North tower. Impatiently he pulled at the handle of the door, and when it wouldn't come open, he cursed and kicked the door, stubbing his toe painfully in the process.
Suddenly on a inspiration, James pulled out his wand and yelled "ALOHAMORA GOD DAMMIT!" The door came crashing open and James set to sprinting up the stairs to the top of the tower. When he got there he went white at the sight of a girl with red hair lay in a pool of her own life's blood; an emerald encrusted hilt jutting out of her chest, stark against the red of her blood and the navy of the sky.
Thinking quickly James exclaimed "Accio Shooting Star" as he knelt down by the prone figure. Suddenly he recognized her as Lily Evans. The girl Sirius kept sitting on. He thought wryly. He then gently drew the knife out of her chest and dropped it when it changed back into a wand. He deftly caught his broomstick, which at that moment had come hurtling towards him from the broomshed on the other side of the school.
Gently, James sat Lily on his broom and then clambered on behind her. Then as quickly as he could, without letting the petit girl fall off of the broom he flew down to the hospital wing. I only hope that it's not too late…
