Peter jumped up, about 20 seconds too late. The only thought that came to him was that he could never take down Snape himself, so he unhexed Sirius and Remus, who suddenly jumped up and ran after Snape. Peter ran to the girl's dormitory and also unhexed Professor McGonagall. She stood up and cursed. Where is he?!

Peter stumbled out the words. He stunned Sirius and Remus as I tried to get my wand. After he ran out of the Common Room I unhexed Sirius and Remus and they chased after him. Then I came here.

Professor McGonagall strode out the door and down the stairs. Over her shoulder, she yelled back to the following Peter, Go get Professor Dumbledore! And with that she ran out of the Common Room. Peter followed, but turned down a different corridor to go get Dumbledore.

After a few minutes of silent thought, Dumbledore spoke up. I know this is difficult to do, but James can you please give -

Suddenly Dumbledore was cut off by his door banging open. He looked up and James and Lily snapped apart to turn around to see who the intruder was.

James was startled. Dumbledore stood up and rushed over to the panting Peter, and Lily stared on wide-eyed with James.

Peter stammered. Snape... unpetrified...stunned everyone...ran out the room... Sirius, Remus, and Professor McGonagall following... With that he took deep breaths and tried to get his breathing normal again. Dumbledore ran out of the room at this, and James stood up. Lily grabbed onto James, but he pulled away. Stay here, he said, and he ran out of Dumbledore's office as well. Lily stood up but instead of running after him, stayed in the room and looked out the window to see if there was any sign of Snape.
