Chapter 2: Into the Light
"James? Lily? Is that you?" Sirius asked the familiar pair.
"Yes, Sirius, it's us!" Lily replied. Sirius flung himself towards them, hugging them firmly.
"I thought I would never see you again!" Sirius said.
"What did you do this time, mate?" James asked with a smirk.
"Huh?"
"In other words, why are you here? Why did you die?"
James and Lily listened patiently while Sirius told them everything. Everything from the beginning, James and Lily's end. Sirius told them about little Harry, not so little anymore, Azkaban, Peter, The Order of the Phoenix and the fight with his cousin, Belladrix Lestrage.(A/N: Is that her name?)
"How could they do that to you, Sirius?" Lily asked.
"They put you in Azkaban for 13 years! You were our best friend; you would never do that to us!" James protested.
"Well, I can't do anything now, I fell through the porthole, It's too late," Sirius said glumly.
"Don't worry mate! It's not that bad," James said. Sirius perked up a bit, some mist swirled away and disappeared. The area was clearer. Sirius now had a better view of the people who the voices belonged to.
"WAIT!" Lily screamed. "Did you say the porthole?" Lily asked.
"Ya, I fell through the porthole, that's why I'm here," Sirius said.
"You can get us out of here!" Lily whispered.
"How? And why are you whispering," Sirius asked.
"I'm whispering because they might hear us," Lily replied.
"Who's them?"
"The people who are guardians of this place, they don't like people leaving." James replied.
"Only few people escape," Lily said.
"So how do we get out of this place?"
"We have to get back to the light!" Lily said secretly.
"Lily. We will NEVER find it. This place goes on forever, you can't find anything but people," said James.
"Sirius," Lily asked, ignoring James, "Do you know the way out?"
"For sure! Come on!" Sirius said. He sped off with Lily and James behind him. Sirius grasped the string and pulled himself towards the light. He sprinted to the bright light, now in the distance.
Sirius, James and Lily heard a rattling scream followed by scrapping noises. The blood-curt ling scream shrilled the air around them and their hairs stood on end.
"What was that?" Sirius asked.
"That was them," James said.
"I think there on to us," Lily said quickly.
"We got to get out of here! Hurry!" Sirius said.
They sprinted towards the light which was closer now. Every step Sirius took echoed in his mind. Sirius was the first into the light, his eyes hurt, and it took awhile to get adjusted to the light. James and Lily stepped in the light behind him.
"Good idea, with the string!" Lily said, sounding impressed.
"Thanks!"
"So, now what," James said panicking. The shrills were now getting closer.
But before anyone could answer, three of them started to drift up into the light. When they were about 7 feet up in the air, Sirius saw a figure step into the light. It was hunched, lizard-like, hard black scales, rotting teeth. It had red beady eyes and long blue nails.
It led out a shrill of anger as the three figures vanished into the light.
*** Sirius was exhausted. It felt like he had been re-born. His skin was clammy and wet. He couldn't move a limb, let alone a finger. His hair was damped with sweat and breath was heavy.
Using his last bit of energy he opened his eyelids. In front of him he could see feet, a long dark purple robe and the tip of a long white beard.
A/N: So, how was that? Can you guess who the mystery figure is?? Hee hee! Well, check out my other story called 'Once in a Lifetime'! Until next time!
