Disaster has many faces.

The rest of the week passed in a blur, and before Sophia knew it she was packing to go home for the funeral. Her brother Eric had offered to pick her up from Kings Cross for which she was grateful. She really had no desire to travel through the streets of London by her lonesome. She threw her remaining toiletries into her bag and looked around to make sure everything else was packed into her trunk. She absentmindedly twirled a strand of hair around her index finger while staring out the window. Lily came upstairs to tell Sophia that she needed to hurry when she found her friend by the window.

"Sophia?" Lily spoke softly, Sophia did not respond, so Lily took it as though Sophia had not heard her. She walked up behind her friend, "Hey girl. You alright?"

Sophia startled at the foreign voice. "Oh hey Lily." She said after she had turned her head to find out who had invaded her moment of sorrow solace. "About as alright as I can be I guess."

"Are you sure you don't want me to come with you?"

"I'm sure Lily. I need sometime away from this place, if only for a weekend." She said returning her attention to the window.

"If you're sure..."

"I am. Thank you though. It means a lot to know I have a friend who cares."

"You have a few friends who care." Sophia looked at her questioningly, "Well there's me, Giselle, James, Sirius, Peter, and finally Remus." Lily noticed Sophia's smile at the mention of Remus's name. "What's going on between you and Remus, Sophia?"

Sophia turned to her, "I honestly don't know, but he sure is wonderful isn't he?" She said leaning her head against the glass.

"I agree."

"Hey, give James a break alright? He's trying." Sophia told Lily.

"I know, he just puts me on guard."

"That isn't always a bad thing."

"That's what scares me." Lily said. "Well come on, there are some people who wish to say their 'Goodbyes' before you leave." Sophia nodded and followed Lily out of the room. She was greeted first by Sirius who engulfed her in a large hug. That was the thing Sophia loved about Sirius, around school he may be known as a womanizer, and frankly he was, but to his friends he was always the person to turn to. He empathized, not sympathized, and to Sophia, that meant everything. Tears built up in her eyes and Sirius took her face in his hands and kissed her forehead.

"We may not get along all the time, but I love you to death, you know that right?" Sophia nodded. "Good."

Next was James who looked at her and smiled sadly, he hugged her and whispered into her ear, "Just remember the good things alright? It'll get you through the toughest nights." She smiled slightly.

Peter came next and smiled up at Sophia, he grasped her hands and said not a word, and Sophia appreciated it. Then Remus walked up to her. He looked down at her and ran his hand through her hair. "Hey you." She coughed and looked down at the floor. He looked up to Lily, "Lily, I'll take her to the platform if you don't mind." Lily smiled while nodding her head. Remus put his hand on her waist. As soon as they left the common room Sophia chocked back a sob.

"Remus I don't know if I can do this, I don't know if I can go to that funeral, I can barley make it a few minutes without crying now how am I going to get through the service?" She said, her voice quivering. Remus stopped and turned her to face him.

"Sophia, look at me. You need to do this, you have to do this, you can do this." She looked to the side trying to hide her tears. "Sophia, it's alright to cry. I've seen you cry."

"I know and I'm tired of it. I'm tired of you only seeing me when I'm on the edge of starting a bloody flood." She said laughing slightly. Remus chuckled and wiped the tears from her face.

"If it helps, you look just as gorgeous when you cry as you do when you don't. Though I must admit, I miss that dazzling smile of yours." Sophia chuckled.

"Remus the romantic."

"Better believe it baby."

"Alright let's do this." Sophia said. He walked her to the platform and kissed her forehead.

"See you Tuesday?"

"Yeah, I'll owl you if anything changes though." She got on the train and walked to her regular compartment. For once the weather matched her mood. Rain poured down in sheets. She leaned her head against the window and stared out at the passing landscapes. When she reached Kings Cross, Eric was waiting for her. He hugged her and carried her bag to a taxi.

"Ready to do this?"

"About as ready as I'll ever be." She told her brother, he nodded and opened the door of the taxi.

The funeral took place on Sunday. The sun was out, and Sophia was grateful for that. Her father loved the sunshine, he always pointed out that there was no use in being angry while the sun was out. She stood among her four brothers and listened to a speech, not even bothering to hear it. It was useless, no matter how many kind words were said about her parents would never bring them back. After the service was completed, everyone went to Sophia's parent's house. Dinner was served and all seemed to be going accordingly until chaos broke through. The last thing Sophia heard was a scream from a man, "DEATH EATERS, RUN!" and an evil cackle.

At the castle, all were oblivious to the current attack. Lily sat on the couch in the Head's common room studying. James walked in and sat down at the desk nearby. He seemed frustrated. "James you alright there?"

"Huh? What? Oh yeah, I'm fine."

"Right, what's going on?"

"Snape."

"What happened?"

"He's just a git. A greasy git that doesn't know when to let up."

"Did he say something?"

"Yeah."

"About..."

"About a person."

"Okay stop being vague, who was it."

"It doesn't matter."

"Who was it?"

"You and Sophia."

"What did you do."

"Punched him."

"At least you were civilized about it. But really don't let it get to you."

"How can you ignore that?"

"I've mastered ignoring you haven't I?"

"Funny."

"I know."

"Lily...about Amy the other day...I don't know what that was about..."

"She wants to add you to her list of shags." Lily said nonchalantly.

"LILY!"

"What?" Lily asked innocently.

"Right." He snorted. "What are you studying?"

"Potions." James grimaced. "Good luck with that."

She laughed, "Thanks...I think. Do you not like potions?"

"Nope, and I'm not looking forward to N.E.W.T.S."

"Why not?"

"Because I can't seem to grasp the Vetus and Juvenis potions." He stated.

"Need a tutor?"

"Would you mind?"

"Not at all."

"Okay great." James walked over to the couch and sat down next to Lily. She began to explain the concepts of the potions and James leaned over to look at the text while she explained it.

"Get it now?" She asked after about an hour.

"Yeah, but could you help me make them up?"

"No problem when do you want to meet?"

"Well I was-" James started but was interrupted by Dumbledor's intrusion.

"I need to see you two immediately in my office. You might want to find Mr. Lupin as well." Lily and James looked baffled but followed his orders.

"I'll get Remus and meet you up there."

"Alright."

"Follow me Miss Evans." They walked to his office and about twenty minutes Remus and James ran in breathless.

Remus spoke up, "What's...going...on...Headmaster?" He said between breaths.

"There was another attack."

"Where?" Lily asked.

"At Sophia's parent's funeral."
