~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Hey thanks to all of you who reviewed

Last Chapter:

What he didn't know was that someone close to Lily had been the one to see. What he didn't know was that person was on their way to the headmaster's office at that moment.

~~~~

She was looking for Lily at the moment and she couldn't believe James could of done that to her. She was walking in a hall she had never been in when she heard some voices coming from around the corner. She walked up to the corner and looked around it with just her head. What she saw stunned her, it was Lily and she was surrounded by deatheaters. They were talking and saying some horrid things to her. But, she noticed Lily didn't flinch once, instead she shot her own comebacks to them. Then Voldemort came and she almost screamed.

He said something to the deatheaters and one was about to do something to her when an unknown energy was in the air and Lily and the deatheaters were all laying there unconscious. Voldemort then made a portkey to go back to Slytherin Manor picked up Lily and apparated. That was when she sprinted down to Dumbledore's office. She was found it after 20 minutes of running around. She gave the password and entered the office.

"Prof. Dumbledore!" exclaimed Abby, " I just saw some deatheaters and Voldemort take Lily from the school."

"You what!" he said the twinkle in his eyes seemed to turn fire like with all the anger in him at the moment.

She told Dumbledore everything that happened well except for the whole thing with James feeling up some girl. He looked absolutely livid at the moment. When she was done he sat in silence.

Slytherin Manor

~~~~~~

Voldemort had put Lily the room she was in before. It was one of the nicest rooms in the Place beside his. Even though he hated to he added the Gryffindor colors to her room to make her feel more comfortable. But once he knew she was his he would be sure to change them immediately cause he hated the colors that reminded him of love, trust, friendship, bravery, and power that is stronger than him and he knows it.

He was watching his soon to be bride sleeping looking so pure and so innocent at the moment because of her sleep. He was watching her so intently that he finally noticed she was pretending to be asleep so she wouldn't have to talk to him.

"Lily I see you are finally awake," he said in a velvet voice. (Can you actually believe I put that I don't think Voldemort can have a velvet voice LOL)

"Yes unfortunately," replied Lily in a cold voice.

"Oh Lily you don't need to be so cold towards me," he said.

"Yes I do I don't Love you," she said with a sneer.

"Yes but the one you love…" he said, "He doesn't love you, he never will."

Lily froze at that comment could it be true. Could James never love her the way she loved him?

"I can't live like this any longer," said Lily crying again.

"Now Lily we have a prophecy to full fill," said Voldemort.

"No I won't. I will not never in a million years," she said fiercely.

"But he doesn't love you he never will. I love you," said Voldemort even though he would never mean it, " So Lily I need to ask you a question."

"Yes," said Lily in a downcast voice.

"Will you marry me," He asked.

"No never," she said in utterly and complete disgust.

"Oh so would you never like to see your family alive again," he asked innocently.

"What do you mean don't you dare hurt my family!" she exclaimed.

"Well I might be so heart broken that I might kill all your family members to help stop the grieving," he replied.

"Ok I will," she replied as he left the room to prepare for a wedding

Back At Hogwarts

~~~~~~~~~

"James you idiot you…I can't believe you did that to Lily," exclaimed Remus.

"James how could you I never thought you would sink that low," said a shocked Sirius.

"James you are not the person I thought you were," said Peter.

"What are you three talking about," said an exasperated James, "I was just having some fun with another girl it isn't some sort of crime is it."

"James why would you do that when you have LILY," asked Remus.

"Yea James if I had Lily I wouldn't be with some other girl," said Sirius.

"Me either," squeaked Peter.

"So what I was going to end it with Lily sooner or later," said James not feeling guilty at all.

"Yes but did it have to be that way and let me remind you she dumped you!" exclaimed Remus and Sirius at the same time.

"All students will report to their common rooms at once," said Dumbledore's voice through all the halls in Hogwarts, "And would the Marauders please report to my office."

You could here all the oooh's from all the students going past them think they were in trouble.

" What could Dumbledore possibly want?" asked Remus as they walked toward his office.

"I don't know," said Sirius, James, and Peter at the same time.

So they trudged along to Dumbledore's office not knowing what to expect. They gave the password and entered what they say was very confusing. Abby was sitting in a chair crying hysterically and McGongall was also there also crying.

"Professor?" they all asked simultaneously.

"James, Sirius, Remus, and Peter you may need to sit down while I tell you this," said Dumbledore looking as old as he was for once.

"You see," said Dumbledore as he talked about what Abby had saw and told him.

All the Marauders all sat dumb struck. James wanted to cry. He never meant to hurt Lily so badly. The only reason he did that to her was that he was scared. Scared of love and commitment. He had never felt that way before about any girl he went out with and it scared him in to doing something drastic to see if he could get away from those feelings by using a dumb blonde bimbo to kiss and feel. But it hadn't worked it only made him love her more and want her more. Now she was gone thinking he didn't love her.

"You see," said Dumbledore, " We have to find her."

"You see she is at Slytherin Manor," said Dumbledore, " The only problem is that it is unplotable and we do not know where it is."

"So what are we going to do," asked Remus.

"We are going to do nothing," said Dumbledore, " You five can not go."

"WHAT," said all five of the friends.

"You are to young and I will be going leaving Prof. McGonagall in charge while I am gone."

"But … But… But…," stammered four of them. Peter was glad he didn't have to go.(some friend eh)

"The answer is no," said McGonagall.

"All right you may all leave except James I need to talk to and if you want your friends can wait out side my office," said Dumbledore.

So all walked out including McGonagall to let Dumbledore talk to James alone.

"James there is something you need to know…" said Dumbledore hesitantly, " James have you ever wondered why Voldemort wanted your family on his side or destroyed."

"No I didn't not till Mark died," he replied.

"Well you see James to tell you straight forward you are the heir of Gryffindor," said Dumbledore chuckling merrily at the expression on James' face, " So you never wondered why you are so powerful either?"

"Well no I didn't," said James.

"Well James you also have these certain powers that will comeback to you when you going in to you 5th year," he explained.

"Why my 5th year?" asked James.

"Well because I put quite a powerful spell on you when you were still in your mothers womb so the Dark lord wouldn't know that you had these powers and your powers will over throw the spell when you are more powerful than me and that happen to be in your fifth year according to a prophecy concerning the heir of Gryffindor. But sometimes prophecies are a little off when it comes to years so we never know."

"Prophecy what prophecy," said James now a bit panicked.

"Here read this," said Dumbledore handing him a piece of paper.

The lion shall awaken on his 15th

And he shall save us all

With the help of those who he thought he would never see again

With the war of light and Dark

He was created by the two foretold so long ago

"But what does the sentence mean; with the help of those who he thought he would never see again and the last sentence?" asked James.

"That is what is still confusing me James it has nothing to do with you yet but eventually it will I guess," said Dumbledore just as confused with those sentences as James.

"Well you best be off," said Dumbledore

"OK by prof," said James and walked out.

"Goodbye James," said Dumbledore and apparated out of Hogwarts in search of Lily.
