A/n I'm sorry it's taken me a while to get this chapter up but I got writer's block so this chapter might not be a good as it could have been.

I'd like to dedicate this chapter to MELISSA for listening to all my ideas.

Just a game

Chapter twelve

Disclaimer: JK owns it not me.

James was walking to Divination with Sirius, Peter and Olivia.

"What do you think Trelawney will say today?" asked Peter.

"She's going to say how good my homework is" replied Sirius.

"That will be a first" said Olivia grinning.

"Very funny" muttered Sirius rolling his eyes, just as they got to the landing the ladder came down to let them get to the classroom.

When everyone was sat down a woman stepped out of the shadow .

"Good morning, we will be working with the crystal ball again today, write down what you see" said Trelawney in her normal mysterious voice.

Olivia started looking into the crystal ball.

"Liv" whispered Sirius.

"What?" asked Olivia

"How can you see anything in these things besides white fog?" he asked.

"You have to use your inner eye my dear" she said in Trelawney's voice.

"Thanks that's very helpful" he muttered sarcastically as James and peter laughed.

James looked at the crystal ball in front of him not expecting to see anything as he never had before but as he stared into it an image started to form.

At first it was just some dark shapes moving then it brightened and he saw some people wearing dark cloaks and masks, they were sat around a large table.

James looked away from the crystal ball trying to understand what he saw but it didn't make any sense to him.

He looked back at the crystal ball and saw a girl with dark red hair and he knew that it was lily. All the cloaked people left the room and lily was the only one left then the picture vanished and in it's place was the dark mark, it vanished to and was replaced with white fog.

James looked up to find Olivia watching him, she smiled and went back to writing something down.

He looked down at the blank parchment but he couldn't write down what he'd just seen and Divination would be ending soon so he did what he normally did and made something up.

"please bring your sheet's of parchment and leave them on my desk as you leave" said Trelawney.

The four of them headed off to the great hall for lunch Remus and Carla were already there when they got there.

"How did Divination go?" asked Carla as they sat down.

"Same as always" replied Sirius.

Lily had been taken back to the room where she had been staying.

"Why me?" she asked aloud but no one was there.

I don't want to be like them obeying his commands but what choice do I have she thought and sighed.

Lily sat down on the bed wishing not for the first time that she was back at Hogwarts. The door opened and a masked figure walked in, Lily took no notice of them until they until they said.

"I could get you out of here but it wouldn't help you because as soon as you know who wants someone to join his side they lose the option of running" she looked up at the person

"Do u wish you hadn't joined him?" she asked.

"No I wanted to join him" he said then closed the door.

"But right now I wish I hadn't". lily had never considered that death eaters might not actually want to be what they were.

"Joining him is considered a weakness by some people" he remarked.

"I used to be one of those people" muttered lily.

"I really think it depends on why your joining him?"

"What do you mean?" she asked.

"Well it depends if your always be loyal to the people that you were before"

"I don't understand" she said confused.

"Just think about what I said you'll understand soon" he said and left.

What did he mean, how could she be a death eater and still be able to be friends with the people she was, it made no sense.

They were in care of magical creatures and were learning about the chimaera a dangerous creature found in Greece but James wasn't really listening.

He was still thinking about what he'd seen in Divination and he still couldn't understand it. A thought suddenly occurred to him, he could ask Olivia if she'd seen anything like it and maybe she'd be able to tell him what it meant.

After class and they were heading back to class.

"Olivia can I ask you something?" James said the others were just ahead of them.

"yeah, is it about Divination?" she asked

"Umm yeah, I saw something in the crystal ball but I don't understand it" he said, Olivia looked at him.

"I can't tell you what it meant" she said looking away.

"If you don't understand what it meant either that's ok I didn't really expect you too" he said.

"It's not that I don't understand what it means, I just can't tell you" she muttered.

"Why?" he asked.

"Please don't ask your know soon enough but I'm not going to be the one tell you" she said.

"Olivia"

"We're going to be late for charms" she said hurrying off.

James stayed where he was wondering why Olivia had acted the way she had, what did the images he'd seen mean? and why hadn't Olivia just told him what it meant?
