Aboard Hogwarts Express Once Again

By: SotMoon

Disclaimer:  I don't Harry Potter, or his mum, dad or anyone probably. I may invent some characters.

Authors Note: Hello Everyone! The SotMoon is back. The thought of this Fic came to me late in the night, so I just typed it up, and I guess some of you liked it. Thank you for all your Reviews.  I know, the Summary sounded cliché, but is my fic?

*~*~*

                    Lily Evans walked towards the barrier of 9 ¾ silently, head down, pushing her trolley, she leaned against the barrier casually, as if just glanced about, and slid through.

                    The Hogwarts Express was there, steam billowing out, wafting into the calm breeze.  All around Lily, under-aged wizards scurried about, looking for their friends, their parents. If only I could be like them… She pushed her trolley up to the side of the train, and then climbed aboard.

                    Lily sat alone in the back of the train, not knowing that it was in fact, the Marauders cabin. She snuggled into a corner, and slowly began to read: "The Witching Hour".  Lily was quite fond of muggle books, she slowly stared getting sleepy, and soon she fell asleep.

*~*~*

                    Three Boys looked down at the small petite red head as she slept, one with messy black hair, and chocolate brown eyes, also known as James Potter; Prongs by his friends, then came Sirius Black, with pale eyes, and black hair, finally came Remus Lupin, a tall boy with blondish brown hair, flecked with gray, with sweet hazel eyes.

                    "Who is she?" Asked Sirius pointing down at the girl.

                    "Evans; Lily Evans." Said James, looking at Lily.

                    "Oh, so this is your rival at the books?" Said Remus sitting down beside Lily.

                    "Yeah."

                    Soon after, when the train started to move, Lily awoke, not knowing there were other people in the room with her, she opened a green eye, then the other, then saw three boys in the cabin with her. She shot up to a sitting position; scaring the three boys.

                    "Good morning Sunshine!" Sirius said cheerfully.

                    "Uh…Yeah." Mumbled Lily. Oh god! What If I snored when they were in here!?

                    Lily glanced around, and noted that James was looking at her strangely.

                    "What are you looking at, James?"

                    "You've changed over the summer, Lily."

                    "How so?"

                    "Your hair is longer, your eyes a lighter color. You look really nice." James said. 'She's gotten pretty. Oh man.'

                    "Thank you, James."

                    Lily sat talking silently to the guys for a while, while thinking to herself that James and the others weren't so bad, in ways. They could be nice. Finally, Lily got hot, so she took of her jacket, making someone gasp.

                    "What?" asked Lily confused as Sirius stared at her arm, she looked down, and saw the hand printed bruise on her lower arm.

                    "Oh…" Mumbled Lily, covering it back up.

                    James looked at her, with big eyes, then at Sirius.

                    "Who did it? You can tell me Lils."

                    "Don't call me Lils," Lily snapped, and then shot death daggers at James with her eyes. "It's none of your concern!"

                    "Five Minutes Till' Hogwarts Express reaches Hogwarts!"

                    "I'm gone." Lily muttered and left the compartment, slamming the door behind her.

                    "She had no right to snap at me!" James growled. "I was just worried, but now she'll pay."

                    James also stormed out of the room, his robes billowing out behind him.

                    "How long do you think it'll be, Moony?" Sirius asked.

                    "Hmm?" asked Remus looking up.

                    "I said how long do you think it'll be before they realize they like each other?"

                    "They don't Sirius, don't be daft. Lily obviously has something wrong."

*~*~*

                    In the loo, Lily sat in a chair, slowly remembering the night that her mum was killed. She looked in the mirror and saw a small tear trickle down her cheek, and she searched quietly in her bag; finding a small penknife, she slowly cut herself on the wrists, and on her forearms, smiling at the pain.

                    What Lily didn't know, is that James Potter was slowly walking down the corridor, talking to himself, as he made his way to the Loo, to change into his Hogwarts Robes.

                    Not thinking, James tried to open the door, but it was locked.

                    "Hello? Anyone in there?" asked James knocking on the door. He sat there, waiting, no answer. He knocked again, and then knocked the door open, finding an unconscious and bleeding Lily Evans.

AN2: Well, there's another chapter, not any better than the first one, I assure you. Anyways, I hope you liked it. I'll probably have another chapter done by tomorrow, or today, depends on my writing abilities after a few hours.
