Chapter 2:
Befuddlement is Sometimes the Best Way to Go
James was currently holding his distraught wife in his arms, he himself was not holding up much better in hers. A minute or so had passed like this before a bright white light seeped in the door of their prison cell and the door itself blasted open.
James and Lily sat shocked and wondering why in fact the door had been opened. Afraid that it would be a much unwanted visitor, the two crept into the shadows trying there best to hide from view, but in a cell it would not prove to be very helpful.
They waited quietly but nobody came, and there in front of them lay their desired escape.
After a moment or to, the two had come to a mutual decision and they took hold of each others hands and headed for the door. They cautiously walked out not knowing what would be on the other side. Nothing was there, and in fact the place seemed positively empty, but not in a way that gave you hope, but in a way that made you know that something had gone wrong.
The two headed through the maze of different passages and staircases, until they reached the main landing. Expecting to see many robed and clad death eaters there they were surprised to find the place utterly deserted.
They had found their wands in a pot on the mantel piece, and thought it was quite stupid that they were there when any person could come by and claim them. But then again, who were they to call the Death Eaters smart?
"Lily" James said speaking shakily for the first time since they had come to the horrid place.
"Yes" she replied, equally shaken.
"I think that we need to go back to the house and see what happened"
At this Lily could not speak, she and her husband would have to return to a place that would only bring them more tears, what would they find? And what would they not?
She simply nodded her head, and they both apparated to their house, in order to find any trace of hope or any trace of sheer misery.
