A/N:Oh I know I took reaalll long on this chapter im reaallly sorry but I have to be in a certain mood to write this story. Thius chapter might seem a bit rushed but I really wanted to get this out!
"Lets take a walk." Said Lily.
James nodded and got up.
* * *
They ended up sitting in the stands of the Quidditch pitch. James silently picked at a small thread in his cloak.
"So..." he said.
"So..." Lily echoed.
"Hows life?" asked James bluntly looking at her.
Lily laughed. "Oh I dunno turning spy against my master saving a couple of muggles and performing unforgivable curses on others. The usual." She said with a small shrug.
James laughed and the turned serious.
"Lily we need to talk."
Lily nodded. "You first."
He brought his hand to rest on hers. Lily looked at it but remained silent.
"Lily I-"
"James don't." said Lily pulling her hand away. "Me-you-we can't." she said her voice trembling slightly.
"Why?" James pleaded.
"If Voldemort does find out I-I've turned spy against him then he-he'll use you as a tool to get to me. Please James don't. Not right now atleast. Things are to dangerous."
"Lily things are going to get very dangerous as the days progress. Voldemort is gaining more and more power these days." Said James.
"Not if I can help it. I'll make sure he doesn't gain any more power. Maybe by then the ministry will be able to defeat him."
James shook his head. "The ministry is letting him take over. They're to scared to do anything."
"When they see that Voldemort is getting weaker then they'll try to-"
"NO Lily they won't" said James harshly. "They're scared to death from that last attack and will only fight if Voldemort trys to take over the M.O.M again. Otherwise they'll just sit around and wait for him to lose power."
Lily looked at her hands. She didn't know what to say to that.
"As for not getting involved." Said James more gently. "I respect your wishes."
Lily nodded.
"But remember I'm here." Said James.
"Thank you." Said Lily softly.
"Lily do you know any deatheaters? I mean so we can bring them in."
Lily thought for a moment. "Well Voldemort likes to keep his deatheaters a secret from everyone even me but he doesn't keep them all a secret from me. There's Krakroff, Avery and Knott. There's Lucious Malfoy." She spat the name out with disgust. "And there's Severus Snape."
"Snape's a spy." Said James.
Lily looked up. "He is?" she asked surprised. "But he dishes out unforgivable potions like there's no tomorrow. Plus he hates muggles."
"He's not all bad I geuss." Said James. "Anyone else?"
Lily thought for a moment. "You know there is this one deatheater. He's always wearing a hood and Voldemort won't even let ME see who he is. Plus the deatheater is always around Voldemort. Doing minor jobs and etc. Like getting the plans for the next house we'll attack or even getting his pet snake. But I've never seen his face."
James thought a moment. "He can't be that important right? I mean he does such unimportant jobs and Voldemort doesn't even bother to send him on missions with you."
Lily nodded uneasily. "I geuss but the ones that don't show their faces are usually the most important ones. Most deatheaters don't even know who I am. I just know who they are."
James shrugged. "It's getting late. We should head back into the castle. How much time do you have until you have to go back?"
"About an hour. I told everyone I went for a walk and wanted to be alone. Luci-Malfoy tried to follow me." She said disgusted. "But I wouldn't let him."
James laughed. "Would you like to go with Sirius, Remus and me to the three broomsticks? We could call Peter and-"
"James." Lily cut in. "I can't be seen there. What if a deatheater who knows me sees me? As for Peter. Well I'd appreciate it if you didn't tell anyone-yet that about my switching sides."
James frowned. "Not even Peter?"
"James he is a bit of a blabber mouth and if any deatheater tried to get something out of him Peter might just let it slip and..."Lily trailed of.
"Peters not like that." Said James.
"The millions of times I had to perform memory charms on people because Peter let Remuses er-problem slip." Said Lily laughing.
"O.K. I get your point." Said James.
Lily felt his hand over hers again but this time more out of support than love. Lily smiled and both got up.
"So you know Ashley?" asked James as they walked towards the castle.
Lily shrugged. "That little girl right? The one-"
"Yea." Said James.
"I don't exactly KNOW her...more like I've taken a liking to her." Said Lily. "She's so cute."
James nodded.
"James I have to go." Said Lily.
"O.K. er bye. Hey drop by my apartment sometime. I live with Sirius. You can use floo powder
* * *
"Where have you been?" hissed malfoy.
Lily looked at him angrily. "I went for a walk."
"Master has been looking for you." He hissed.
"Tell master he should have patience." Lily snapped.
"If master caught you talking about him like that-"
"Oh shove it!" Lily roared and brushed past him. "Don't EVER talk like that to me again! You forget my ranking."
Malfoy saw red. She was just a pawn! Nothing else. It was him who had a higher ranking than her. 'Stupid mudblood.' He thought to himself. 'We'll see who has a higher rank when the dark lord disposes of you.'
After that Lily usually left and Malfoy could never find her and lied to the Dark Lord telling him that nothing was up. They started to notice that the ministry some how knew the next house they were going to attack and deatheaters were being captured left and right. Voldemort was furious.
"There is a traitor among us!" he roared and then looked suspiciously at the small, short and fat deatheater beside him. "If I ever find out who he is penalty will be death." He hissed. He then turned with Lily walking beside him.
"Lily." He snapped.
"Yes my lord?" she asked cool and composed.
"Find this traitor and kill him. Make sure he is punished and has a long, painful death."
"It shall be done my Lord." Said Lily.
"Now leave me." He said with a careless wave of his hand.
Lily bowed and left.
In her room she floo-d to apartment 203.
"James! Sirius!" Lily called stepping out of the fireplace.
"Sirius isn't here but I am!" James called from the kitchen.
"Alive or dead?" Lily asked holding her nose. The place smelt of fire. "What'd you do burn Sirius?" she asked opening the kitchen door to black smoke everywhere. She could faintly smell flowers.
"I er-tried to make lunch." She heard his sheepish voice from somewhere.
"Where are you? I can't see a thing in this smoke."
"Try walking ahead towards my voice." Said James.
Lily walked ahead and bumped into someone.
"James?"
"Yea it's me." He said. There was black smoke in front of her eyes and she couldn't see.
"this is so stupid! Why'd you try to cook?" asked Lily.
"Cuz Sirius went out a few hours ago to go grocery shopping and hasn't come back yet and I'm hungry and there wasn't any food and I found this recipie on how to make chicken the muggle way and I tried it and-"
"No need to go on." Said Lily. "Lets get out of here." She said.
"One problem." He said.
"What?"
"Can you find your way out of this smoke?" he asked. Lily could hear the grin in his voice.
"You forgot I've been trained for things like these." Said Lily. "Grab my hand."
"O.K." he said.
Lily closed her eyes and used her instincts. She remembered that the way she'd come to the stove was clear and the floor had flt as if something had been dropped. She felt her way around and remembered the faint fragrance of flowers when she had first entered and and towards where the smell was strongest. She put a hand infront of her to feel the door and she opened it.
"There we're out." Said Lily.
"Yea." Said James.
Lily finally got a good look at him. He had red pepper in his hair and some kind of brown sauce down his shirt. His face was all black and sooty to.
"Augh." Said Lily. She pushed him. "Go take a bath while I fix this mess."
Grumbling James went into his room.
Lily then took out her wand and pointed to the kitchen after a few quick charms everything was as good as knew except for the kitchen floor. It still had stains on it.
"Something's are best done the muggle way." Lily muttered and started cleaning the floor with a wet rag. Finally getting the stains out she got up and started to make sandwiches. James came out and looked more calm and composed.
He came back and Lily turned around quickly making them both in a very awkward position with Lilys hand on his chest. She turned around quickly.
"Thanks." He said taking a bite of the sandwiches.
"They're your favorite." Lily added. "Fried chicken with mayonnaise."
"James!" exclaimed a frantic Sirius coming into the kitchen. "There was an attack! A deatheater attack at Diagon alley." He exclaimed coming in.
Lily dropped the mayonnaise jar to the floor.
"But-but that attack wasn't-it wasn't supposed to take place until next week!" Lily exclaimed.
"I know. I think it's Voldemorts way of saying he can do whatever he wants whenever he wants." Said Sirius grimly.
"Is everyone alright?" asked Lily.
"Everyone at Dreamland was killed and it was completely destroyed." Said Sirius. Dreamland was an amusement park at diagon alley.
Lily closed her eyes and she suddenly felt a pair of eyes watching her. A pair of blood red snake like eyes. Lilys eyes opened and she looked around.
"I-I think the Dark Lord-"
The door fell open.
"I knew it!" exclaimed Lucious Malfoy walking in.
A/N: And the plot thickens! Lalalaaa ok I'll TRY to update soon! But don't get mad if this takes some time.
"Lets take a walk." Said Lily.
James nodded and got up.
