Sarah- Sorry again about the name mix up. I'll try to not let that happen again. And you're right, it is small fairy. I looked it up today because someone said something to me about it and I know I had it right.
Burning Ice- I looked it up again on and what is written in my story is said the be what I wanted it to say. I don't know if the site is wrong or what, but according to the site I have it written correctly for it to say "Good night, small fairy. Good night."
Ok, that's all I have to say for today! Enjoy this chappie!

Lily and Remus's wings couldn't be removed for a while. So, to make the wings more comfortable for them, the Charms professor, Professor Flitwick, used a charm to shrink the wings. Lily and Remus were taught the charm so they could use it on themselves every morning.
To add to Remus's troubles, Sirius and Rini confronted him about being a werewolf. He didn't deny the accusations. Sirius and Rini were a bit wary of him at first, but then came to accept it. They even helped him come up with ideas to tell the other students for when he had to leave for the transformation.
James was still troubled to see Lily and Remus growing closer, but knew that one-day his time to be close to Lily would come. He would keep himself away from Lily by keeping himself him Sirius.
Lily and Sirius's cousin, Vega, became very close friends. If Lily wasn't in Remus's company, she was in Vega's.
When the first Quidditch game of the season came, Lily and James performed flawlessly together with Angela. Sirius and Eric kept the bludgers away from their team members just as flawlessly. With them, and Nancy Fala catching the snitch, it was game, set, match.
Lily was with Vega when she received a letter to meet with Professor Cauldro in the Potions chamber.
It was in the beginning or December when she received the letter. Confused and curious, she went down to the dungeons to where Potions was held. When she had entered, she saw that the Potions Mistress was not the only one in the room. Professor Dumbledore was also there. "Lily," Professor Cauldro said cheerily. "I'm glad you got our letter. Please, sit." Lily took a seat.
Dumbledore spoke next. "Now I'm sure you're confused as to why we asked you down here. It has to do with your powers. Synthia has told me that she started to explain to you about the powers that she herself has." Lily nodded. "Good. Now, she has explained to me everything she knows about her powers. I have asked her to tell you everything she has told me, as well as anything she left out. You don't have to, but I've asked Synthia to give you lessons on how control your powers. Does this sound alright to you?"
Lily ran over everything that the headmaster had just said and nodded consent.
"Headmaster," Professor Cauldro whispered to Dumbledore, "I don't know where to begin. I've never met another like me."
"Start where you think you should start, Synthia. Remember: you are the professor."
Professor Cauldro gave an unsure nod and Dumbledore left the two to start their first lesson. "How about we start by expanding those wings to normal size." She said the charm to expand Lily's fairy wings. "Now, I can remove these for you, if you like. Or would you prefer I get rid of young Remus's wings first and let you have fun with your?" she asked with a mischievous smile.
"How about the latter of the two," Lily said with a similar smile.
"Then go and get your King Arthur and let me work my magic." Lily took off running to get Remus to get his wings removed. Thus began Lily's first lesson of controlling her new powers.
Professor Cauldro successfully removed Remus's wings and sent him back to the Gryffindor Common Room with orders to rest his back.
After Remus left, Lily and Professor Cauldro sat down and began to go over the basics of Lily's powers. The first they talked about was protection, defense, and attack.
"You have already performed an attack with your powers," Professor Cauldro said. "When those boys made you angry, that flash of light your friends saw was an attack."
"But why did the attack happen? I mean, I was pushing them. Wasn't that enough to release my anger?" Lily asked confused.
"Well, your anger for them must have grown over a period of time. You finally felt and acted upon the release of the anger, but it wasn't enough for all the anger you felt to come out. So, as a result, the ancient magic stored in you, well…released."
Lily sat for a moment, taking all the information in. "So what about Remus and my wings?"
"Simple," Professor Cauldro said. "You and he must have felt as if you were floating on air and, as a result, your wings became real and you literally floated on air."
"So, say I was mad as hell at someone. I might make flames appear or the temperature get really high?"
"Possibly. Then again, you might just have an outburst of energy like you had on the train."
"What if I was really sad or upset about something and I started crying. I mean really crying. It might start to rain?"
"Possibly. It all depends on your powers. It may just cause the room to become very damp and moist."
"Okay. So what about protection?"
"Your powers can cast protection on yourself and people. It all depends on the reason the protection is placed and what emotion is behind it."
"And defense? What can I do in defense?"
"Well, if someone throws something at you, you can stop it in mid-air. If a spell or curse is being cast at you, you are able to put up a shield, in a way. It's similar to the attack you used except it won't hurt your attacker."
"Synthia, can I deflect all curses? I mean, like, every single spell and curse ever created?"
Professor Cauldro looked at her hands. "No, not every curse, Lily. One in particular it won't block is the killing curse."
"But who would use the killing curse on me?" Lily asked in surprise.
"There is one who would try to kill you because you were muggle born. Few people know who he really is. He was actually at Hogwarts about twenty or thirty years ago. Then he was called Tom Marvolo Riddle. Now," she said with great fear, "he is called Voldemort."
"Synthia, you sound as if you're afraid of him. How do you know him and why are you so afraid of him?"
"To be honest, Lily, I'm terrified of him. For reasons I wish not to tell. All you need to know about him is that he is a terrible man, if you could still call him that. Lily, you must do me one thing. You must promise me your most excellent promise on this as well."
"Of course, Professor. What is it you wish me to promise?"
Professor Cauldro had unshed tears gleaming in her eyes. "You must promise and swear to me, that no matter what happens, no matter how tempted you may be, that you will never join Voldemort. He's evil and has a lust for power and you must never join him. Swear it, Lily!"
Lily was slightly shaken at what her professor had just said. Nodding, Lily said, "I swear it, Professor. With any and every God and Goddess as my witness, I swear to you that I will never join Voldemort."
So ended Lily's first lesson.
