Authors note: I actually might get some chapters done on time! Go me! I've
been inspired by a song that I listen to 24/7 ("Fallen" by Sarah
McLachlan). I really recommend you listen to it, very inspiring. Anyways, I
hope you like the little "fight" between Snape and Lily. It was kind of
stupid, but I wanted someone to get a pie in the face. It seemed
appropriate for my mood right now. This is a short chapter because I'm
tired and it's beddy bye time.
**********************************************************************
It was near Halloween and the emotions of everyone were like roller coasters. Sirius was moodier than ever, after finding out that his crush was a servant to the Dark Lord, Lily was completely in love and Snape was in the hospital wing once again thanks to James' over active temper when it came to Lily.
Sirius lay in the frosted grass by the lake. He had been a mess since Hex had mysteriously disappeared after that day where she confronted him. The headmaster had warned the students one again to stay far from the Forbidden Forest. "Where Hex was seen last," Sirius thought. He deeply worried about her, as he did with all his friends. Just because she was crazy- "No," he reassured himself, "She's not crazy. Is she?"
Sirius stared up into the sky and wondered what time it was. Hopefully it wasn't too early or late to catch some breakfast. As he sat up from the crunchy grass, he noticed a staggering figure stumble from the forest. "Hex," he gasped as he lunged towards her.
Her hair was tangled with branches and leaves. It was greasy and some blood stained the ends. Her skirt was torn at the edge and also had blood spots on it. Sirius gasped when he saw her wrist. Blood was literally pouring from it and splattering onto the grass. Her face was pale, she had lost a lot of blood.
"Hex! You okay?" Sirius said breathlessly. "We have to get you to the hospital wing!" He ripped off a sleeve of his robe and begun to tie it tightly around her wrist. Hex laughed, revealing bloodstained teeth. She grabbed Sirius' hair and threw him to the cold hard ground. Hex kicked him hard in the side, despite her lack of energy.
"Lead me on? Pretend to love me?" she screeched at him. "I've found someone who loves me. I'm going to die for him. You'll see! The Dark Lord shall prevail and he will bring me back to life. We will rule the wizarding world together and all the filthy mudbloods will die. But not that red-haired bitch. No. She deserves much worse."
Hex's words started to fade and she grew paler and fell to her knees. "Sirius. You had a chance. A chance to live freely, to be with me and to have greater power than you could imagine. You threw it away, and left me to die."
"No, Hex. I never meant for you to die. I don't want you too. You can change. You don't need Voldemort." Sirius was now kneeling beside Hex and clenching her hand tightly.
"I don't need to change. You do. I heard the word. The word is Voldemort." That was her last words. Hex slowly fell into the deep eternal sleep of death. Sirius held her tightly as a crowd of students one by one circled the couple. It was eventually broken by the Headmaster, who, with a group of other adults, pried Hex from Sirius' arms and threw a white blanket over her.
"Oh Sirius!" Lily came rushing up to Sirius with James and the rest of the marauders following her. She hugged him tightly as James watched the lifeless Hex float behind the Headmaster and towards the castle. "It's okay," she said quietly and brushed his hair with her hand.
"No, it's not," Sirius whispered. "Voldemort is rising once again."
