Author's Note: Hello again! You guys really seem to like this story, and
I'm glad. So here's chapter six. I changed a few details in chapter 5 and
put them in here. I guess it makes for better telling or something.
Thank yous:
Aimee- Thank you, I am glad you like where it's headed.
The Elfin Child- Soon, I promise within two chapter's James will enter the picture. I think chapter 8. No promises, but I think that's where he enters things.
Sirius' Lover- Thank you. I'm glad you enjoy the plot as much as I do. This is the result of slacking off at school, but shh, don't tell Santa. *tear* you called it fantastic. JOY!
Bell- Thanks for pointing out that er.. error. Whoops. James comes soon, read Elfin Child's thank you if you didn't already.
And here's the next chapter. Love all you guys. read & review please! ~Frankie~
Chapter Six: Leaving With Worry
Before Lily had gone to the park that fateful night she had stored some of her things in a locker at King's Cross station, so Lily returned to the station just as a place to start once morning came. She sat in a corner writing until dawn when she went to buy herself a cup of tea and a light sandwich, leaving her with just over 30 pounds in her pocket. She sat waiting patiently for the shops to open so that she could begin her search for a job.
That morning Arabella woke to the sound of Vixen mewing and scratching at her door and she knew something was wrong. She rushed into Lily's room and found the note and Lily's diary sitting on the bed; she picked up the note and read:
Bella,
I'm sorry. I have to leave. I know you don't want me to but I have to make it on my own and settle myself somewhere before I can even begin to rely on anyone again. I know you wouldn't disappoint me if I was to stay here and we would probably become great friends if I was to stay but I have to go. I'm leaving my journal, you can read it and you will probably understand a little more. I just feel like I'm endangering you the longer I stay. Thank you for everything, I greatly appreciate it. I will let you know where I am once I get settled. I will pay you back for everything; please don't worry too much about me. Thank you again for everything. I hope to see you soon.
Always, Lily Evans
"Oh Merlin, Dumbledore is going to kill me," Arabella whispered and Vixen meowed in agreement. She picked up the diary and went down stairs to her fireplace and flooed to Hogwarts, arriving in Dumbledore's office.
"Arabella? What's going on?" Dumbledore asked after she stepped out of the fireplace.
"She left. She left a note and her diary, she must have left after I fell asleep Professor," Arabella said looking a little scared and worried as she waited for Dumbledore to respond.
"It's alright. If you had tried to keep her she may have run off without caring to let you know. I suggest that you go home and wait, perhaps she will return in a few days," Dumbledore said looking weary and tired.
"Are you sure there is nothing we can do?" Arabella asked desperately.
"Only hope that Voldemort doesn't decide to look for her again," Dumbledore sighed and Arabella noticed for the first time exactly how old he looked.
Author's Note: Sorry this is so short; this is pretty much a filler chapter! I didn't want to start the next chapter here. so, yeah. keep reading!! & reviewing!! ~Frankie~
