Heya guys, u should know that in my prequel Voldemort attacted Lily and JAmes once, so this is the second time!!

Chapter 9—Attack number 2

'Anne hurry up in there. Brice will be here any time.'

'I'm coming Gabby keep your pants on.'

'I am not wearing any now hurry it up.'

Gabby and Anne were dressing a little early because they decided on driving to Brice's Parent's house.

When Anne stepped out she was wearing a white skirt, light yellow shirt and high heeled while sandals.

Gabby was pacing in her kaki colored jeans skirt, white shirt and high- heeled light brown sandals.

'What wrong?'

'Well, what if they don't like me?' she asked gripping Anne's shoulders.

'Gabby get a grip will you? They will love you and from what I hear about his dad and step mom form him he thinks so too. Are you sure you don't want me to stay home and let you go alone?'

'No you promised and I need the moral support.'

'Fine. Lets go wait outside for him. It'll be faster that way.'

'Thanks Anne.'

'No problem now l really hope this brother of his is nice.'

'Yeah I think he is. Brice talks about him all the time. Res is supposed to be very well reserved.'

'What kind of name is Res anyway?' asked Anne after they locked the door and started walking down the steps.

'Its supposed to be a nickname. Brice started it when they were kids. Although they were going to different schools they were really good friends. They were pretty lonely when they were kids. They parents married when they were ten years old.'

'Hmm must be nice.'

'Brice how far is it?' asked Anne when they were in the car driving for 30 minutes.

He laughed. 'Not much further Anne.'

Ten minutes later they pulled into the driveway of a large Victorian style house. After a few seconds of breathing Gabby got out of the car followed by Anne. They walked behind Brice up the walkway to the door.

When Brice opened the door he greeted his brother who had opened the door, in to a hug.

'How is it going bro?' said the voice from in front of Brice. 'And where is this fiancé of yours?'

'She's right behind me and I brought her friend too.'

'That's great now introduce me quick before mom sees her before I do.'

After saying ok Brice turned to show his brother to his girl and their friend only to see the shocked look on their faces.

His brother recovered far more quickly than they did though.

'Brice you didn't tell us that he was your brother?' said Gabby and Anne simultaneously.

Brice was sure he had a look of pure surprise in his face.

'What? You three know each other?'

'Yeah you could say that.' His stepbrother replied grinning.

'We all work together.'

'Really Res, how come you never told me anything.'

'Him? What about you Brice? You could have told us that your brother's name and we'd have told you that Remus here was working for the ministry fro a little over two months.'

'And bro I was really going to tell you today that I am staying in London permanently.' Said Remus who only smiled at his friends and brother.

'Well it was a surprise.'

'Not as much as it is to me to find out that a girl who I've known for a least eight years is going to be my sister in law.'

'You known each other that long?'

'Well we were introduced in fifth year by Lily but we haven't exactly been close.' Said Remus.

'Yeah we hung out a couple of times during work hours, that how I never knew Remus had a family let alone a brother.'

'Yeah well for the last few years my life has revolved around James and Sirius then I came to London with them and the subject never came up so I never had the chance to tell you.'

'Does Lily know though?'

'Yeah she does but I don't think she pieced it together cause I never told her Brice's real name or last name. I usually call him Sully cause his middle name is Sullen.'

'Jeez you people and your shortened names.'

'Ok we've spent enough time outside mum is probably jumping out of her skin. I won the toss to meet your darling fiancé first but if I had known it was her I wouldn't have bothered.'

'What is that supposed to mean?' said Gabby as they followed Remus and Brice thought the house until they reached the living room.

'I am just kidding. I am really glad Brice found you. I like you rather than that girl with the ---.' Said Remus but was suddenly cut off and let out a small yelp of pain.

Remus glared at his brother who was looking out the window as if he never saw the scenery through it.

'What were you going to say Remus?' asked Gabby as that almost full sentence about another girl tweaked her curiosity. But Remus was saved from answering by a couple that walked in from the door that obviously led to the kitchen.

The woman was of medium height, had shorted neat grey streaked brown hair and brown eyes that were so like her son's. The man was tall and distinguished with his dark hair having grey sideburns and his blue eyes twinkled.

Brice introduced them.

'Mother, dad, this is Gabby, my future wife and this,' he said Indicating Anne 'is our friend Anne.'

'Pleased to meet you madam, sir.' They both said in unison.

'Oh no dears call us Beverly and Alan.'

'Thank you.'

'So this is Gabby. It's a real pleasure to meet you. Our son has been very mysterious about you dear. I don't think even Remus knew you.'

'Sorry to say this mother. I knew you were glad that I said I didn't know her but as it turns out I do. Know her that is.'

'Oh you do son?' said the man from behind his wife.

'Yeah dad.' and he told them how he and his friends met them at lily's party. 'And we all work together too.'

'Well what a coincidence?'

'Yeah it is.'

'And Anne is it?' she said to Anne who nodded 'It's a pleasure to meet you. Remus mention you a couple of times now I have a face and a body to go with the name.'

At this Anne cast a curious glance at Remus then figured he probably told his mother about all of them and mentally scolded herself. Just because he mentioned your name don't feel its because he likes you.

'How long have you girls known each other?' said Alan.

'Well we grew up together and went to Canada's Witching Institute together, we met our friend Sasha who was born in the Caribbean but went to live in Canada. We got together with Lily over the holidays and we even went to the Caribbean with her and two other girls. Cindy and Winter.' Said Anne.

'Winter? Remus dear didn't you use to date a girl named Winter?'

'Yes mother.'

'It was the same girl. She was rather nice.' Said Gabby.

'We all had fun that summer. Well anyway now I share a flat with Sasha and Gabby for now shares hers with Lily. We're kind of inseparable.' Said Anne.

'Our friend Sara is well married and pregnant and our other friend Jeanie Is married to guy she dated since Hogworts, has had twins and there is another baby on the way.' Continued Remus.

'Wow you have very err active friends.'

'Yes they are but they're also very supportive and fun to around.' Said Gabby smiling.

'I am sure they are.'

The rest of the night passed pleasantly. Beverly and Alan really liked their soon to be daughter in law and they seem to hint subtly at Remus that he should do the same thing. And though they didn't say anything Beverly was telling her husband as the watched the young people get into the car.

'Have you seen the way that girl Anne was looking at Remus. She feels something for him I am sure of it.'

'Yes well I think our son feels the same way because when she was not looking at him he was looking at her.' Replied Alan.

'Oh young people are so naïve.' Said Bevy to her husband.

'Don't worry my dear they will realize it soon enough.'

As Anne and Gabby were on their way home with Brice driving and Remus going along for the ride Lily and James found a panic during the dinner.

They had enjoyed the speech immensely. Even James decided that the Zodiac wasn't as a waste of time as he thought it was.

It unsuspectingly during dinner that something happened.

They heard terrified scream of women coming from the Garden. When they got there they were astounded to see the death mark. The emerald sparkled, immense skull had a serpents tongue darting through its mouth was engulfed and illuminated with a haze of greenish smoke.

A panic was erupting everywhere and all Lily and James could do then was to try and help the elderly wizards and witches to the inside. After a half another they found a cat and a dog waiting for them in the beginning of the path in the garden. As they went to where they thought the mark to been said from.

'That enchantment is a real freaking pain you know.' Stated James.

They mark seemed to have originated in the forest.

'Listen you too stay here. If we're not back in forty minutes then come in after us.'

Both the dog and cat nodded. James and Lily looked at each other then stepped into the forest. They walked for fifteen minutes when they heard a heavy cackle behind them.

'Well it's finally that I meet the great mudblood and her friend the youngest Potter from the Clan of Potters.'

They spun around to be faced with unordinary man with long gnarled hands, red eyes and a frightening aura.

'Voldemort.' Spat James.

'You are a brave one speaking the dark lord's name.' Said a voice from behind Lord Voldemort. Lily somehow felt that it was familiar but shook of that feeling thinking it was just her fear, anxiety and paranoia all mixed up that made it seem that way.

'Oh shut up don't you feel working for and evil man that he may decided to kill you just for the h3ll of it.'

But the follower didn't answer instead The dark Lord himself said, 'I don't kill my most informative informants Mr. Potter.'

'Well the death of the death eater near the ruins in Italy last year wasn't your doing at all was it?'

'I have to agree with you there. You see he seemed to be a sort of a traitor as I am sure you'll agree Mr. Potter.'

So he knew about Marcus I thought so.

'Now you two and the rest of your young friends who I think are most incompetent to be aurors in the first place will be faced with death or the joining to the rest of my minions for the destruction of muggles and mudbloods.' He said with an intent gaze on Lily.

'Yes, well you can be sure that we won't be joining you.' Said James.

'And you'd be surprised at what we can do.' Said Lily through clenched teeth.

'Is that so my girl? I seriously doubt that. So I gather since you won't be joining us you choose death. Well then that can be arranged.'

'How are we going to get out of here?' wondered James. He was worried but he fixed Voldemort with his most insolent stare.

His eyes then searched the area and he could sense rather than see that Lily was doing the same thing. He looked behind Voldemort to see two hooded figures standing behind him in the darkness of the heavy shadowed trees. Two others, though, nowhere close were standing on either side of him and lily and he was sure that at least one of them was standing behind them. The dark lord spoke.

'You three seize them and bring me back what's left of their bodies when you return.'

With a crack he and both his flanks disapperated.

'It will be a great pleasure to kill you Potter.' Spat out the first one. From what they could tell it sounded indistinctly like a woman's.

'You too, you filthy little mudblood.' The word spewed out from the other who sounded vaguely familiar also, to both of them.

But before they could come any closer four voices yelled. In a flash of blue, red and yellow light the three dark hooded figures slumped to the ground in pain.

'Tell your boss that he attempts have failed.' Said James to the three of them. Meanwhile it was time for them to leave. Four distinct cracks were heard and four young people disapperated to the room of James and Lily.

'Nice one prongs.' Said Sirius.

'Yeah you too.'

'Do you two always think together?' asked Sasha.

'Yeah. More or less.'

'Thanks for coming to help you guys.'

'No problem Lily.'

'So what happened?'

'We met our pal Voldemort.' Said James.

'Shoot, came to late to help. We could have brought him down.' Said Sirius.

'Maybe not Padfoot.'

'Anyway guys I thought I heard Malfoy's voice under one of those cloaks.'

'Me too.'

'Well I would out it past the slimy hair ferret.'

They filled Sasha in on who was Malfoy then went on to discuss what happened. James and Lily looked at each other.

'You guys this is not the first time we've had a run in with Voldemort.'

'Really?' exclaimed Sirius. 'How come I never knew this?'

'Ah we didn't think we should.'

'Why not?'

'Well I don't know.'

'Remember that time we went to the cricket match where there was an attack.' Said Lily starting the tale.

Sirius looked up and snapped his fingers.

'Oh I remember it was the first one in the area. We got away that time. He himself showed up.'

'Yeah well we were in the group of muggles he cornered. There were about twenty of us. James and I went to buy drinks and we got enclosed with the rest of them.'

'Well lets just say we lucked out because as soon as he was about to finish his torment auror's showed up.' Said James.

'Yeah and after he left we didn't wait around for anyone and one the way back we decided not to mention we were in that. I doubt even Voldemort knew we were there because he acted as if he really saw us for the first time.' Said Lily.

After finishing their conversation the four of them turned in for the night. It was twelve in the morning and they were leaving for work in four hours to write a full report. Sasha and Sirius decided it was best not to mention it to their boss that they were their. They would stay till the sun came up and then meet Lily and James in the front of the building.

When Sirius and James took Lily and Sasha back to her flat they were surprised to discover four sleeping bodies in Lily's living room.

They all woke up at the sound of the closing door and Lily was surprised to learn that all this time Brice and Remus were brothers.

'Hey great to see you again man.' Said Sirius giving him a handshake.

'I didn't realize you were engaged to blabber mouth here. Sorry Gab just kidding.'

'Yeah you'd better be.'

They rest of the morning was spent eating breakfast and chilling out.
