Ch.10: Death eater Party

Class came and went slowly. Lily was happy that she had at least told James about where she had been going and about Ben, But Lily still felt guilty for not telling the truth. That night unfortunately lily had to lie once more about her job to her friends. Ben and Lily were going to attend "The Party" in Germany and Lily was feeling a bit nervous.

"Hello Lily." Emily said as Lily sat down next to James at the Gryffindor table for dinner.

"Hello how is everyone?"

"Good" everyone said in a tired tone.

"Lily, me and Alicia were going to go gaze at the stars tonight, it's supposed to be beautiful do you want to come?" Alicia asked.

"I'm sorry I can't . . ."

"Don't worry Daren can take your head duties for you." Emily implied enthusiastically.

"No actually its not that I just have to do something with Professor Dumbledore later that's all." Lily lied. She looked down to her back to pull out her charms homework.

"Oh well alright, Remus do you want to join us?" Emily asked.

"Um sorry I . . . have to practice, for the talent thing." Remus mumbled.

"What, sorry I didn't here you?"

"I have to practice my song for the talent show remember?"

"Oh that's right I totally forgot about that! Well would you like some help?"

"Um no that's . . . well actually perhaps you could help me or any of you for that matter. I need one of you to listen to me to see is I'm hitting the right note and stuff, but I wouldn't want to intrude on you star gazing."

"You won't be. I'd love to hear you sing some more. What song are you doing?"

"I'm either doing "Just the two of us" or "Fields of Gold". They are muggle songs."

"Cool well I'll help."

"We all will!" Sirius piped in

"Thanks."

James turned to Lily and was captured by her brilliant smile.

"What are you doing tonight, more work at the . . . Firm?" James whispered.

"Yes unfortunately I'll be a bit late so don't stay up for me."

"Are you sure?"

"Yes."

The group finished their dinner and headed back to the heads common room.

"So Lily how is Ben?" Alicia asked. The group went silent.

"Um, He's good why?"

"Just wondering."

"Hey Remus why don't you start singing" Sirius said changing topics.

"I actually sort of want to do a bit of homework first. I'll sing in a little bit.

Time flew rather fast lily thought as she looked up at the clock. It was 7:30 pm and she and Ben were to meet at 8:30, the party starts at 9:00 pm. Every one was sitting around the fire doing their potions work when suddenly Emily asked

"Where did Remus go?" everyone looked up and saw that Remus was gone.

"That's weird he was just here." James said. Suddenly the portrait door opened and in came Remus sporting not his school robes but a pair of blue jeans a rather tight fitted brown t-shirt and a pair of brown Chuck Taylor high tops.

"Remus you changed." Emily said surprised at his new look. None of the girls had seen Remus in muggle attire before.

"Yeah, well I can't sing my best in my robes, I feel more comfortable dressed like this."

"OH, cool so are you going to sing then?" Lily asked now putting her books away.

"If I must." Remus said with a sigh "Hahahah." He began to laugh at himself

Everyone putt all of their belongings away and moved the furniture around to make a make-shift stage for Remus. Remus began to sing.

"This is called fields of gold."

"You'll remember me when the west wind moves
Upon the fields of barley
You'll forget the sun in his jealous sky
As we walk in the fields of gold

So she took her love
For to gaze awhile
Upon the fields of barley
In his arms she fell as her hair came down
Among the fields of gold

Will you stay with me, will you be my love
Among the fields of barley
We'll forget the sun in his jealous sky
As we lie in the fields of gold . . ."

"He is really good" Lily whispered to James. She looked up at the clock and saw it was 8:00.

"I have to go. I'm sorry Lily whispered once more. James looked up and whispered "Be careful" Lily lipped "I will". Lily went up to her room and took out the navy blue dress Damian had bought for her from her closet. Lily got changed quickly. She loaded her gun and holstered it on to her thigh. Lily then said a couple of words and swished her wand at the top of her head. Her hair magically entwined itself in to a nice and neat up-do with just a few curly strands dangling down her face. She then slipped her wand between the strap and the gun. Lily applied her own makeup. She applied the dark mark and dried it with a swish of her wand. She then put a covering charm on it so the others would not see and grabbed her purse. She came out her room. Remus had ended the song and Lily could hear clapping and cheering from the group. Lily came out from the small corridor and on to the staircase. Everyone turned to see her.

"Oh my gosh Lily you look beautiful!" Emily exclaimed.

"Wow" James said under his breath, he had never seen her that dressed up before. She looked gorgeous.

"Thanks." Lily said with a slight blush.

"You look amazing." Sirius said.

"You look magnificent." Both Remus and Peter said.

"You look exquisite." James managed to say, he was still amazed with the way she looked.

"Thank you."

"Where are you going?" Alicia asked

"Um my college is having a lame dance and I am n the dance committee which means I have to go."

"Oh who's your date?"

"Ben."

"Cool."

"Well I should be going I told him I would meet him at 8:30. It's now 8:20."

"Have fun."

Lily walked to the portal. She reached own and pulled her dress up to grab her wand while she did that chill went up James's back. Lily mumbled the password so no one could hear. She waved good bye and left. Once outside she met Ben.

"Good evening beautiful" Ben greeted Lily.

"Hello Charming. Ready."

"Yes. Here put this on and this on your chest."

"What is it?"

"Incase we are made, these will connects us. If you press the side of the ring it becomes a microphone and we can talk, but if for some reason the ring gets lost or broken then you just press the patch on you chest and that becomes a microphone as well. Cool huh? You do have your dark mark right?"

"Yes." Lily put on the ring and patch and they headed off.

Back at the common room:

"Wow Lily looked amazing, but she didn't tell us about the dance." Alicia said sounding a bit annoyed that Lily didn't tell her about the dance.

"Well perhaps she didn't want to make anything of it since it is for her other school." Remus implied.

"I Guess so."

Lily and Ben arrived at Monroe's magnificent Mansion. Ben not surprisingly knew almost everyone there. He took Lily's hand and lead her in they came up to the guards and showed them their marks. Ben went first, he passed with ease, but Lily was held back.

"Unveil the mark" one of the guardsmen said. Lily did as she was told.

"Go ahead."

"Wait! Come back here." The other guard said. Suddenly Ben jumped in.

"Is there a problem here? She is with me." Guard glared at both of them for a couple of seconds.

"Alright go ahead"

Ben led lily into the party holding her arm close.

"You must be carefully Amber these people have a sixth sense when it come to spotting muggleborns."

"I know" Lily responded

"Ben! Over here Ben!" Ben looked up to see his school mates. He waved back.

"They want us to come over. Remember act cool, or like a Slytherin."

"All right."

"George, it's good to see you." Ben said as he came up to his friends.

"Where have you been mate we haven't seen you in a week." A tall blond haired boy said to him.

"Sorry my school in France has been a bit more involved than I thought it would be."

"Your still going there mate I thought you dropped out to, you know do business with us." The Blond haired boy said with an up and down eyebrow gesture.

"No I haven't, but I'm still in business." Ben said giving Lily a sideways glance.

"Who is this lovely lady Ben?" A brown haired boy asked in a strong Bulgarian accent gesturing towards Lily.

"Oh I'm sorry; this is a very good friend of mine, Amber Shedleton."

"Amber this is George Donnley, Fredrick Labowsky, and Edvard Bingly." Ben said as he pointed to each one of them.

"It's nice to meet you all; Ben tells me great things about you all." Lily said politely.

"Does he?" Edvard asked.

"What things are those?"

"UM well . . ."

"Quiditich, he plays quiditch" Lily heard in her ear, it was Ben's voice.

"That you are very good quidditch player, play for the Vlasco house?"

"Yes, yes I do."

"Would you excuse me I have to visit the bathroom."

"Would you like me to show you where it is?"

"Oh no thank you I think I can manage."

"Be careful" Lily heard in her ear as she walked away. She mingled around the room in search of anything suspicious.

"So Ben is she . . . a death eater?" His friends asked.

"How else would she have gotten in hear?" Ben replied now scanning the mob of people in the house looking for Lily, but it was hard, she had changed her hair color when they met outside the portal to brown.

"Would you excuse me I'll go find Amber." Ben left his mates by the bar and went in search of Lily. He grabbed a glass of wine to act as if he was mingling.

"Lily where are you" Lily was startled by the sudden message she dropped her earring.

"I'm in the bathroom why?"

"You are taking long."

"I'm almost done." Lily slid the earring back into her ear and exited the bath room. Just as she walked out she spotted a large group of men huddled together traveling down the hall way.

"Ben I see something, I'm going to see what it is."

Ben pun around in search of lily.

"Where are you headed?

"See the large group of men by the huge mural on the far wall?'

"Yeah I'm headed towards them right now." Ben began to pick up his pace through the crowd but was stopped by his friends.

"Hey Benny! They are about to make the opening speech come on."

"All right just a sec I need to find Amber."

"Mate she is probably already over there come on." His mates pulled him to the sitting area where the presenters were starting.

"But . . ."

Lily followed the group of men quietly into a vacant room."

"Now I know all of you are frustrated right now with Potter." A tall gray eyed man with brownish-gray haired said in a low tone.

"You know the dark lord is getting testy Pierce"

"I know Daniel! I know!"

"We need to get to Potter he is the one the Dark Lord wants."

"What about James his son?"

"Him as well, along with his mother, well Mrs. Potter."

"We have tried all we can, but Potter is too damn smart, both him and Amelia re smart aurors. That son of theirs is also smart."

"We need a plan to get either Robert or James. Who does the boy hang out with?"

"Sirius Black, The one who betrayed the black family, disgusting boy."

"Right well he is a bit too waste full, I doubt the blacks would mind if we took him. But no we need something else, someone else . . ."

"What about Charles Lupin's son Remus he is good friends with Potter."

"NO! Not good enough, we need someone he cares about more than anything."

The room became silent as everyone started brainstorm ideas.

Lily moved slightly to get a better view of the group.

"I've got it! You know Black, Bellatrix the new death eater recruiter?

"Yes"

"Well she did say Potter spends time with a girl named Evans at Hogwarts and she is a Mud blood apparently."

"Really?" Pierce said with a sly curious tone.

"Yes"

"Um perhaps we should give her a little visit."

"I'm not sure Pierce you know how Dumbledore has Hogwarts grounds tightly secured."

"We won't give her a visit but Black and the others will."

"Good thinking"

"Now I finally would like to thank all of you for coming tonight and I would just like to say that we have done well." Jacques Monroe said in a proud tone.

Ben pulled out his pen and clicked it several times taking still imaged, muggle photos and one with wizarding photography of Monroe. He also recorded everything he was saying.

"The Dar Lord will rise!"

The rest of the crowed cheered.

"Yay!" Ben cheered with a bit of sarcasm

The Party ended and it was around 1:30. Ben went in search of lily once Monroe ended his speech.

Lily moved once more to leave the room but accidentally bumped in to the side dresser. All of the men with drew there wands and Lily came out from behind the dresser.

"I'm sorry I was looking for the . . . Kitchen but I see this isn't it. I'll just be going." Lily began to leave.

"Stop! Don't fire." Pierce said to the other men.

"What is your name?"

"Angela"

"Angela who?"

"Uh crap" Lily thought to herself.

"Burke, Angela Burke." Lily said as she turned to face the men."

"Were you listening to our conversation Miss. Burke.?"

"No I was just looking for the kitchen."

"Lily there you are." Ben said as he came up to her.

"Croft you know this girl."

"Um yes I'm sorry she has never been here before. Amber we should be going."

"Wait I thought you said your name was Angela"

Ben turned to Lily quickly.

"Oh Amber don't use your middle name, Amber is so much nicer. Sorry, she uses that name a lot her name is actually Amber."

"Pierce, oh Ben I didn't know you had come?"

"Dad? Uh yeah um this is Amber and we have to get back to school bye."

Ben and lily quickly walked out the door."

"Hello Croft I think you son's friend over heard us."

"I wouldn't take too much into it she is a death eater recruit."

"Well we'll see."

Lily and Ben made it outside and aperated back to the portal door way.

Lily opened the door and they entered. Ben opened the other door to the common room and entered without even looking to see if anyone was there.

Suddenly James, Remus, Sirius, Peter, Alicia, and Emily got up.
