Ch.46: A rough night and bad news
Lily and Alicia were sitting in the girls Gryffindor dormitory, it was seven thirty and Emily had already gone down to the third floor, to her chamber. The both waited anxiously until they got the message from Emily that it was safe to go. Alicia sat on her bed with a silver bracelet around her wrist. It would light up green if Emily was in danger or needed help, the three friends had gotten theses bracelets so they could know where each other were at any given time incase of trouble. The bracelet suddenly lit up and Alicia looked up.
"Okay it's time." She said looking up to lily who was putting on her longsleeved purple shirt.
Lily looked up.
"Okay, let's go." The two girls walked out fo the dorm with their wands in their pockets.
Below in the common room Sirius and James sat on the couch, looking depressed. Lily and Alicia walked over.
"You two okay?" Alicia asked looking to both Sirius and James.
They looked up.
"Yeah we're fine, you two be carefully , we don't want any accidents, alright?" James said firmly.
Lily gave him a kiss and said "we'll be fine, we've done this before . . . Well not really but we'll be fine, really." Lily assure
"Are you sure you don't want one of us going with you, I mean you both are new at this." Sirius said.
"Yes, we've transformed with her before, it wasn't for long but we know what to expect." Alicia said.
"what are you two doing tonight?" Lily asked.
"I've got rounds with Dillington and Sirius is going to do homework, maybe." James said.
"Oh yeah, maybe you could rehearse for the show, since it is on Friday and today is Wednesday." Lily suggested.
"Maybe," James replied.
The girls said goodbye to their boyfriends and headed out.
"Okay we need to get down to the north side that's were Emily said to meet us. They walked in to the forest, it was quite dark and a layer of fog floated above the ground floor giving the area an eerie feeling. They walked to a small patch of ground and transformed. They then made their way to the north side. The north side was a patch of ground with trees surrounding it. Emily was already there, being the type of werewolf that she was, a dimenthian she was able to control some of her conscious and prevent herself from killing other animals. Emily caught sight of them and charged at them.
Lily pounced at her and smacked her with her paw. The werewolf jumped back. And Emily regained her conscious.
Alicia and Lily both messed around with Emily for the next hour. They were fooling around when suddenly Emily stopped. Lily looked to Alicia thinking she had seen something Alicia looked around, but didn't. Lily looked around as well, then Emily suddenly transformed back to her usual self.
"Get out of here go!" she yelled to Lily and Alicia. They both looked confused, but then Emily transformed back into a werewolf.
She growled at the two of them, but lily and Alicia didn't move. Lily roared and Alicia meowed, and hissed (Alicia is now a Cat just saying for the record) then suddenly a large shadowy figure pounced upon Emily forcing her to be thrown ten feet away. Lily and Alicia pounced on top of the figure.
"Ahh!" Lily cried as she hit the figure she was thrown back, have the wind nearly knocked out of her, Alicia was the same.
Emily struggled with the figure; she looked up to it and realized immediately that it was a Red coated Dementhian wolf hunter. She bit and scratched the figure and he luckily let off a bit. Though her gave her quite a blow to the cheek.
(Red Coated Dementhian hunters are similar to dementors but they only attack werewolves and they beat the up.)
Lily and Alicia tried once more to get the figure off of Emily. But there was no use they couldn't do anything. Fear and shock ran through lilys body, scared for ewmily and scared for her self and Alicia. Alicia tried once more but the hunter threw her for out into the woods, Lily ran after her.
Lily found her on the ground with a large gash. Acraoss her cheek.
Lily transformed back into her self.
"Alicia are you alright!" Lily cried running to her side.
"NO, we need help, he's going to kill her if we don't get help." Alicia exclaimed.
"Who are we going to get, Alicia no wizard can help a werewolf defeat that thing, what ever the hell it is?"
"James and Sirius!" Alicia said. Lily thought for a moment
"Alicia we can't even defeat it when we're transformed how do you think they'll be able to?"
"I don't know but we need to get them."
"Fine, let's go." Lily said. They then transformed and ran as fast as they could to the quidditch pitch.
Why are we running to the pitch?" Lily asked in hurried breath.
"We're flying up to the tower that's why." Alicia said. she broke into the changing room and grabbed her broom.
"Alicia I can't fly." Lily exclaimed.
"I know that's why your fling with me get on!" Lily got on and Alicia flew out of the room and full speed.
The wind and rush of flying high and higher gave lily a rush. All she could think about was Emily.
In the Common room James had returned early from his rounds. Sirius was doing his homework and James as well was doing his. Suddenly a tapping came at the window. Sirius and James both looked up to see Alicia and Lily on a broom, both looking injured.
Sirius and James ran to the window and opened it.
"What's wrong!" Sirius asked
"Get your brooms and follow us, Emily's in trouble, hurry!" Lily exclaimed.
James ran out of the common room to his dorm and Sirius went up to his, with in five second both were back. They mounted their brooms and took off with Alicia, all three of them wee going at full speed. They made it to the north side.
"She's gone, but where's Emily" Lily said. Alicia scanned the area and didn't see her either.
"I don't know, let's go down though."
Alicia leaned forwards on the broom gently and they began to descend downward towards the ground. They all landed and lily got off the broom.
"Emily!" she called out.
"Emily!" Sirius cried. Suddenly they heard ruffling in the trees. They all pulled their wands out.
Suddenly Emily appeared, in her normal state naked, with a few tree branches covering her, bleeding badly with mud smudges and scratched on her. She stumbled into the landing from the trees.
"Transfo . . ." she muttered and then she transformed back into a werewolf, seeing as the moon was still out.
All four of them transformed immediately. Emily fell to the ground, she howled loudly and got herself up and pounced at James. Her conscious was wearing off. James pounced her, though didn't hit her hard, being afraid he would hurt her anymore than she already was. Emily then fell to the ground, she was very weak and injured. The group stood there not knowing what to do.
"Sirius then barked to James and James looked to him. Sirius nodded his head over to the Whomping willow. James at first didn't understand, but then knew what he meant.
James then transformed back to his normal self and petrified Emily.
Lily then de-transformed.
"What the hell are you doing!" She exclaimed.
"We need to get her to the whomping willow, she can't stay here. Sirius going into the whomping willow and lead Remus out, me might attack her if we come in." Sirius nodded and flew off on to his broom.
"How are we going to get her there?" Alicia asked
"We'll lift and transport her magically." James said he lifter her up with a flick of his wand and Lily grabbed his broom and Alicia hers.
They soon heard the sound of Moony howling. Sirius led him off into the woods. James stopped the tree and Lily and Alicia helped him get in to the shack. They un petrified her and closed the door quickly, they could hear some rummaging.
"Okay I'll go outside to see how Sirius is with moony I'll be right back." James said.
"James," Lily said. James turned around. "Yeah?"
"Thanks," James nodded and smiled a little and then he was gone.
Lily turned to Alicia, "Gosh we are such idiots how could we be so stupid to forget the chance of hunters," Lily said leaning against the wall.
"Lily everything will be alright, Emily will be fine Trust me."
Morning soon came and Remus had returned back into the Willow. Lily, James, Alicia and Sirius had rerutned back to their dorms.
The morning sun seeped in to the Shrieking shack blinding the eyes of a very injured Remus and a very, very injured Emily, both lied on the ground stark naked and filled with pain beyond belief.
Remus squinted and looked up the sun shot into his eyes and moaned. He rolled over closing his eyes. He then opened them again, expecting to he a broken window or a hole in the wall, but that wasn't all he saw. On the floor next to him he saw Emily. Bruises, scratched, deep cuts, bite marks and dried blood covered her body, she was still asleep or perhaps dead depending on how you first saw her. Remus got up quickly never minding the pain that shot through his back he ran to the bed and ripped the sheets off, laying one on top of her and wrapping one around him self.
"Emily?" Remus asked covering her more with the sheet. Remus's eyes began to swell with tears. He wiped blood off from her cheek with the sheet and then Emily began waking up.
"Lune?" he asked.
Emily looked up. The light affected her vision and she turned over. She then opened her eyes.
"Emily?"
Emily looked up, "Remus?" she asked confused.
"Oh my god I'm so sorry, I can't believe I did this to you." Remus said with tears coming down his face, he thought he had done this, some how.
"Remus, don't cry, I'm fine, just a little injured." Emily said assuring.
Remus grabbed Emily in a hug and held her tight.
"Remus you didn't do anything, it was a wolf hunter, a dementhian one." Emily said.
Suddenly the door began to open and Remus pulled away pulling the sheet that was around him tighter to his body, Emily did the same and winced and rolled over. Remus looked over.
"Oh my gosh, what has happened!" a tall relatively young looking Madam Pomfrey cried.
Remus looked up, not knowing what to say.
"Explain yourselves, now!" She exclaimed.
"It's not his fault Madam Pomfrey, it's me, a hunter . . .came . . last night in . . the woods."
Pomfreys eyes widened "You both were out there, alone!"
"No, me, just me," Emily explained through deep breaths.
"And why were you out of your chamber?" Pomfrey asked clearly furious.
"I injured my self in my chamber, I needed to get out, I would have killed my self if I didn't get out." Emily explained with tears rimming her eyes.
"I transformed back to my normal state off and on as I traveled through the school to get outside."
"Was anyone with you Ms. Templeton?"
"NO," Emily lied.
"Good, come on both of you," Pomfrey lifted Remus and then lifted Emily.
Pomfrey led both of them to the hospital wing, unfortunately some students were already out and about the grounds.
They entered the hospital wing and Remus sat on a bed and Emily sat on the one next to his. Emily was healed, and then Remus, Emily needed more potions than Remus so she was kept much longer than him.
Lily, James, Alicia, and Sirius came into the Ward and saw Emily and Remus. Remus still didn't know exactly what happened.
"I'll be back I must speak with Dumbledore and McGonagall." She said.
"Why McGonagall?" Remus asked
"Mr. Lupin, Ms. Templeton has broken a school room, has fought against a dementhian wolf hunter and has broken her trust with Dumbledore, I must tell her about it for she is Ms. Templeton's house leader, but I promise I favor for her and I'm sure Minerva won't be too harsh on her." Pomfrey stalked off.
"Emily how are you?" Lily asked.
"Better, thanks I'm sorry about last night, putting you both in danger like that," Emily whispered.
"What exactly happened?" Remus asked.
"A wolf hunter came and began beating the crap out of me, Lily and Alicia went to get Sirius and James to help, by the time they arrived I had managed to get the hunter off of me and out of the area."
Suddenly Dumbledore and McGonagall came briskly walking into the ward.
"Would you four please leave, we need to speak with Ms. Templeton and Mr. Lupin alone," Dumbledore asked.
They left leaving Emily and Remus with Dumbledore and McGonagall.
"What happened?" Dumbledore began.
"Last night I transformed as usual, but then lately my transformations have been a bit more aggressive, due to the moon beam a few weeks ago. In my chamber I was more violent then ever before. I had to get out I was literally hurting my self, not just biting, but literally hitting the wall, breaking bones. So I had to get out, I left I transformed off and on through the halls to get out side, where I could run free in the forest. I know what I did was wrong Professor, but I couldn't help it I probably would have been knocked unconscious or dead If I had stayed in my chamber." Emily said
"I made it to the north side where I knew no animals would be and I stayed there. I was there for about an hour when suddenly this red coat came out of no where, a red coated dementhian wolf hunter, he began punching me and beating the crap out, excuse my language, out of me and so I fought back I threw a few good punches, I scratched howled attacked him I did whatever I could to get him off, after about a half our of non-stop fighting her let off, I gave him one more hit and he stepped off for good, he disappeared." Emily said
Dumbledore nodded.
"Then explain how you ended up in Mr. Lupin's chamber," Dumbledore said.
"Well I was badly, injured, I was bleeding I could barely get up I actually stayed there in the clearing for another half of an hour," Emily lied.
" I then got up and traveled to the whomping willow and went in, Remus was in there, but he was asleep, it was about twelve thirty, he was on the floor and then I just laid on the floor and fell asleep and then he woke me up this morning. I understand that I shouldn't have done what I did and that I could have killed some one, I promise I'll never leave my chamber again and I'll do what ever punishment you give me." Emily said looking down.
Dumbledore looked to Minerva and then to Mr. Lupin.
"You found her in your chamber Mr. Lupin?" he asked. Emily looked up.
"Yes, sir I did." Remus Replied.
"Ms. Templeton, eighty points will be taken away from Gryffindor and you will serve detention with Mr. Filtch for the next month."
Emily nodded.
Dumbledore and McGonagall left. Pomfrey let Remus go. Emily was discharged later that day. Her detention would start the next evening.
Emily met the group in the common room, the heads common room.
"We heard what you got. We're sorry." Alicia said.
"It's okay it better than having the guilt if one of you got hurt, believe me."
The group did their homework and continued their practice for Friday's show. Lily sat next to James and red over the lyrics to their song. The fire crackled in its place and Alicia and Sirius were working together on their essays. Suddenly Dumbledore's head appeared in the fire Alicia jumped at the sight.
"I apologize Ms. Kingston for startling you, but Ms. Evans someone is here to see you a Mr. Foster. He is in my office, Mr. filtch will escort him ot you dormitory." Dumbledore said,
"Thank you, sir." Lily said. she set the sheet of paper down. Nerves came over her, Rupert was here to tell her the news she had been waiting for.
A few minutes later Filtch entered and Rupert followed. He was dressed in blue jeans, a white collared shirt and a denim jacket wearing brown leather shoes. His brown hair was brushed nicely and his blue eyes stood out remarkably, he was cleanly shaven and he was quite tall standing at six foot two inches.. He was carrying a folder.
"Evans, some one is here for you," Filtch said. Rupert entered and turned to Filtch.
"Thank you Mr. Filtch, It was nice meeting you," he said politely and stuck his hand out to shake Filtch's. Filtch took it awkwardly and left. Rupert turned to Lily.
"Lily, it's good to see you," Rupert said. he gave lily a hug. Lily embraced it.
"It's good to see you as well Rupert," Lily said
"Uh, Rupert these are my friends, um you already know James, but this is Alicia, Sirius, Emily and Remus." Lily said pointing each of them.
"It's nice to meet you all, lily has told me so much about all of you." Rupert said.
The others smiled.
Rupert then turned to Lily.
"We need to talk do you want to talk here or somewhere else?" Rupert asked.
"Here is fine," Lily said. she pulled Rupert into a chair and sat next to James. Rupert took the folder out from under his arm.
"Okay, the other week you did some tests at the hospital." He began.
Lily nodded.
"We got the results back, and there's good news and there's bad news which do you want first?"
Lily thought for a second.
"Bad news," she said firmly.
"Okay," Rupert said opening the folder.
"The tests results show that you in fact have Cancer."
Lily looked down in disbelief.
"But, Operating would be tricky, the tumor is in a bad place removing it would cause serious deformity to your breast, it will look very different and putting an implant would not be the best solution, because it would look un proportionate."
"Is there any other alternative?" Lily asked
"Amputation or what we call a mastectomy."
Lily looked away for a moment in thought.
"I know it's a lot to handle Lily, But Petunia and I will be here." Rupert said
"Petunia!" Lily exclaimed
"Yeah, when Hell freezes over she'll be there for me!"
"Lily,"
"No Rupert she hates me face it. She's the one who kicked me out, she's the one who's blamed me for mum and dad's death there is no way she's going to support me in this one."
"No one said it was your fault your parents died lily Petunia was Just upset."
"What ever, I don't need her help anyway, I'm fine on my own."
"Lily you need people to support you can't go through this alone, you're sick."
"How much will this cost me?" Lily asked looking down.
"Don't worry about that, your parents didn't leave all of there money to you, they put it in separate accounts in Ireland incase anything went wrong,"
"How much?" Lily asked once more, now being more firm.
"six thousand pounds, plus chemotherapy afterwards, to make sure nothing was left behind and it prevents from future growth."
"We can do the procedure in two weeks, but if we wait any longer it will spread and that could lead to other matters." Rupert informed.
"What about magic, potions, perhaps that could heal it?"
Lily asked remembering what Ben had given her.
"Potions? Uh I don't know lily"
"A friend of mine gave me several potions which are said to heal muggle diseases including cancer." Lily informed.
Rupert narrowed his brows in thought and surprise.
"Yeah it's been proven," Emily added. Rupert looked to her.
"Perhaps, I can't say, are there serious side affects?" Rupert asked
"Not that I know of, but it might be better than losing my hair, getting sick every night and losing a lot of weight." Lily pointed out.
"You lose your hair?" Sirius asked in astonishment.
"Yes temporarily. Lily I don't know. . ."
"It's worth a try Rupert, Please." Lily begged.
Rupert then thought.
"Is there a registered Nurse or healer here?"
"Yes Madam Pomfrey." Alicia said.
"Perhaps she knows of this potion your talking of, I do believe you when you say there is one, but perhaps she knows a bit more than you do. I'll talk to her and get her opinion I'll make my decision then, one I have all of the information."
Lily sighed but agreed, I mean Rupert was right she didn't know if the potion had bad side affects, but if it meant healing her why not give it a go?
Ben left to go talk with Madam Pomfrey.
Lily turned to her friends.
"what do you all think?" she asked.
"Well I think you should try the potion." Sirius said.
"Yeah have your breast amputated would be weird, plus wouldn't it hurt?" Alicia asked.
"I would be asleep Alicia, but afterwards I imagine it would hurt a bit."
"What do you think James, Emily, Remus?"
"I agree with Sirius, you should try the potion." James said. Emily and remus nodded with agreement.
"Well we'll see, but . . . "
"what?" James asked.
"Well now we need to get the book of Vlasco, true we have two copies but we need the other one which Rockwell has."
"Yeah, what are we to do?" Alicia asked.
"I'll get in contact with Damian see what's been going on." Lily said and she got up and went to her room to call Damian.
RING, RING, RING, RING
The receiver is picked up by a tall man with brown hair.
"Hello." He says
"Damian, its Evans." Lily said
"Oh Evans what's up?" he asked.
"How are things on the Monroe, Voldemort case?" she asked
"Not great, were still trying to track them down,"
"Do you still have the extra copies?"
"Yeah, why do you need them?"
"Well actually I was wondering if you could read off the cover of the book, I wanted to see again what it said, because it may have to do with something about the founders or the book it's self."
"Sure hold on,"
………………..
"Okay, here it is. Well its in some sort of language I don't understand," Ledford said.
"Yes Dimenthian, just try your best, please."
(Wow I'm totally making this up, it's not a real language!)
"All right. Here goes, Lolish canasta custinta, bolishvek kolins f-o-rs-hgo uh morvinke cronan., oh wait oh nevermind okay uh it's forkishne mortisque voldroustin . . ."
"Is that all? "
"Uh Ahhhh! . . . ."
Crash, bang,
"Ledford? Ledford, hello!" Lily exclaimed.
