All righty people-no reviews for the first one yet, but the action and
storyline will get better soon. I've never been good at staring a story
off, so bear with me. And, reviews, please!! Okay then, here we go into
chapter 2 of Lily's new adventure. What will she unlock about the history
of her family? :P

They pulled up to the station and climbed out of the car, all holding various things-an owl, a cauldron, and a few strangely shaped and colored suitcases. "We look like a bunch of loonies!" Lily muttered, aware of all the stares and whispers from the huge crowd around the station. She marched off into the station, determined to find platform 9 ¾ or whatever the hell it was called, so she could get away from this zoo. "Dad, which way?" she called over her shoulder impatiently. As much as she hated to admit it, she hadn't been to this station before and was hopeless in finding her way about.
" Thatta way!" Harry Potter pointed towards a huge mass of people. Lily could just barely see the golden '9' posted above the crowds' heads. She grinned when she spotted a brick column about ¾ from the '9'. That was it. She started to march towards it and was so absolutely driven that she wasn't watching the people around her and before she knew it she crashed head first into something. All she noticed was the fiery-red hair before she tripped and fell to the ground.
"Bloody hell! What was that?" Lily grumbled as she stood up from her fall. A wide-eyed, very tall girl with long, straight red hair stared at her like she was an alien. It was obvious that Lily had surprised her and Lily looked around, hoping her mother and father had not heard her language. She saw them coming towards her, both frowning in disapproval. She sighed and turned back to the girl. "Watch where you're going! I'll be in trouble now you know!" she snapped. The wide-eyed girl suddenly narrowed her eyes and crossed her arms.
"Me you say? You were thundering through here like a bloody fox running from the hounds!" She snapped back with a sneer. Lily looked her in the eye and realized that the girl was completely serious. She started to laugh at the girl's silly comeback. The red haired girl's eyes got wide again and she opened her mouth and closed it again, looking like a fish. That was the reaction that she least expected. "What's so funny?! God, you're a strange girl!" she said. Lily just laughed harder. She wondered where her parents were. It didn't take the long to walk over, did it? She recovered from her giggles and looked around, trying to find her parents. "What are you looking for?" The red haired girl grew curious, despite her initial dislike for Lily.
"My parents. I can't see them." Lily surprised herself by answering the girl. She looked at the girl again and noticed that she had the most interesting hazel eyes, and that when she smiled, she seemed much less formidable.
"Well, my mum and dad are right over there." The red-haired girl pointed casually behind Lily. Lily glanced over and found the people that were obviously the girl's parents. A tall, lanky fellow with crazy red hair and freckles and an equally tall, very pretty woman with straight silky hair and the stunning hazel eyes stood not far off. They were most definitely the red-haired girls parents. Lily smiled at the irony and was about to turn to look for her family again when she noticed that they were talking and laughing with none other than HER parents!
* * *
I know, I know, not the greatest ending to a chapter, but I had to cut
it off at sometime. Please tell me what you think so far, I PROMISE it
will get better, just wait till our little Lily gets to Hogwarts.
Don't forget to tell me what I can do to improve it, I'd love to hear
your comments, just please, like I said before, be polite about it!
Thankies again!
