Ch. 2- Attack of the Slytherins
They went through the portrait hole and down many flights of stairs to get to the library. Lily hurried to the table where Hestia had been earlier, but nothing was there except a large stack of books on Muggles.
Suddenly, Lily heard a muffled shriek. Lily walked down a row of bookshelves in the direction of the sound. Lily, followed close behind by Monica and Emmeline, rounded a corner well away from Madam Pince and found Hestia surrounded by a large group of Slytherins.
Two Slytherin thugs held Hestia back and Severus Snape was holding both Hestia's and his own wand.
"Well, well, Miss Jones," said Snape, not noticing the three Gryffindor girls behind him. "Since you refuse to tell me the whereabouts of that Mudblood Evans, I suppose you will have to suffice for some jinxing and cursing."
"Looking for me Snape?" asked Lily icily and Snape whirled around.
"Expelliarmus!" cried Lily and both Hestia's and Snape's wands flew into her hand.
She didn't bother disarming any of the other Slytherins. They were all huge thugs with about half a brain between them all. They couldn't remember to put their robes on the right way let alone remember they had wands too.
"I don't think you wanted to pick a duel with me Snape," Lily snarled, pointing her wand at his chest, "because I always win."
"Petrificus Totalus!" she said and Snape went rigid and fell backwards over onto a large stack of old Arthimancy books.
"Now let go of Hestia or you'll be next!" said Monica, noddingat the two goons holding Hestia.
The two Slytherins refused to loosen their grip on Hestia's arms, so Monica and Emmeline each muttered a spell and both thugs fell to the ground, asleep.
Then two more Slytherins grabbed Hestia as the old guards fell to the ground. The rest of the Slytherins were now advancing toward them. One of the smarter ones, called Alexander Avery, muttered the counter curse so Snape was released from the Full-Body Bind.
Snape leaped up, grabbed Avery's wand, and bellowed, "Expelliarmus!" before Lily could counterattack.
Lily and Hestia's wands flew out of her hand and onto a high shelf, out of her reach, while Snape's wand flew into his open palm.
"You were saying Miss Evans?" said Snape, a large smirk crossing his face.
"Expelliarmus!" cried Avery and Snape and now both Monica and Emmeline were wandless.
"I have lived for this day!" said Snape, his face showing utmost loathing. "The day when the Mudblood Lily Evans stands wandless before me, revealing herself as the complete weakling she really is!"
"Well sorry that's not today Snivellus!" called an angry voice.
"Expelliarmus!" four voices bellowed and Snape, Avery, and two of the more intelligent looking Slytherins lost their wands.
"Snivellus! How positively revolting to see you!" said Sirius Black loftily, his gray eyes flashing.
"Yes just smashing good luck we ran into you," smirked James Potter, rumpling his messy black hair as he glanced at the four girls.
"Accio wands!" said Remus Lupin and Peter Pettigrew and they handed the girls' wands back to their owners.
"Tell them to let go of Hestia, Snivellus!" spat James angrily, nodding at the two thugs.
Snape nodded and Hestia fell to the ground and stumbled over to Lily's side. Remus quickly handed her wand back.
"Now Full-Body Bind on my count!" said Sirius lazily. "1, 2, 3!"
"Petrificus Totalus!" called the eight Gryffindors.
They was a split second and then all the Slytherins were on their backs, unable to move.
"Good night Snivellus!" called James as the eight Gryffindors exited the library.
As they walked up to the Gryffindor common room, James fell into to step beside Lily and said with a smirk, "I never thought I'd see the day when Lily Evans was separated from her wand. You looked absolutely terrified, Evans." He sighed and gave her rougish grin. "But you, of course, still looked as lovely as ever."
"You know I have my wand back now?" smirked Lily. "I'm fully capable of hexing you into oblivion for making such comments, Potter!"
"Fine hex your rescuer! Don't even ask what everyone else who's rescued does!" said James, looking wounded.
"What does everyone else do Potter?" said Lily, fiddling with her wand as they entered the common room.
"Why kiss their rescuer of course!" said James, leaning toward her.
"Wrong move, Potter!" Lily snarled, waving her wand.
They was a large pop and James' ears were now about five times too big.
"To hear me better when I tell you what an arrogant, pompous, self-centered jerk you are!" snapped Lily before stalking up to her dormitory.
Sirius, Remus, and Peter climbed through the portrait hole and saw James sitting with his ears hanging down to his shoulders.
"Don't say a word," James snarled.
Sirius, Remus, and Peter burst out laughing rolling on the floor. James used his wand to magically kick them up to their dormitory.
Then Monica, Emmeline, and Hestia came in and positively howled.
"Nice one Lily!" said Monica as the three girls entered the dormitory, still laughing.
"A little help?" said Emmeline and Lily looked up from her book and saw that Potter had turned all of their hair bright green and orange.
Lily howled with laughter. "Are you sure? I think it looks quite nice!"
"Yes!" they screamed.
Lily waved her wand and her friends' hair colors were restored to normal.
"He's still trying to figure out the counter jinx," said Hestia, patting her once again black hair. Then she shuddered. "Thank you for finding me girls. I don't know what Snape would've done if you hadn't come."
"No problem," said Monica, grinning. "We needed you! Otherwise, goodbye holiday in southern France!"
"Oh yeah that's the only reason why you came looking for me," said Hestia, throwing a pillow at Monica. "For the free travel opportunities."
"Of course!" said Emmeline with a smirk.
"Hestia you still have your last O.W.L tomorrow! You have to sleep!" said Lily urgently having glanced at the clock.
"Yes Mum," said Hestia smirking as she turned out the lights with a flick of her wand.
