AN: This is just a finishing of the last chapter like a part B if you like before the next real instalment. The marauders are in danger, who will save them? And is Dumbledore there just in the nick of time. Don't own a thing, please read and review. Thanks. More Lily and james in the next chapter for definite. All will become clear at the end of this little segment of a chapter. This is VERY SHORT so pleas don't flame me for it. I wanted to leave it on a cliffhanger! Hehe! J
'I follow my master; now get out of my way you stupid slimy wizards, I have business to attend to-'
'Running to Dumbledore again are we Greyback,' Snape sneered 'precious little puppy dog,'
Fenrir spun quickly to face Snape and he growled menacingly before turning back to the courtyard entrance where illuminated by the lightning stood Albus Dumbledore and behind him were Lily, James, Sirius and Remus.
'Severus,' Dumbledore whispered softly 'how could you-'
Snape flinched
'You don't think I could seriously believe you do you Dumbledore about my father-'
'Severus you are still a student with much to learn-'
'Let us kill him Snape,' Rosier sneered 'finishing you Dumbledore will be the greatest pleasure I will ever endure,'
Dumbledore shook his head and glanced at Greyback whose lips were smeared by blood and the rain began to spatter down onto the courtyard, lightning flashed and a heavy downpour ensued. Then a quick series of events followed in succession and Lily thought she was seeing things but didn't comprehend the situation till it had happened. Rosier raised his wand and yelled
'Imperio' and a jet of blue light flew out across the courtyard, Dumbledore blocked it away with a wave of his wand, and turning quickly to his students he said
'Get back to the common room and quick; I will deal with this, when you all wake tomorrow morning this will be nothing more than a bad dream,'
'But professor we will stay and fight-'
'NOW, JAMES! GET OUT OF HERE!' Dumbledore yelled and turned back to the fight with Rosier, Fenrir licked his lips tremendously and lunged at Snape who was aiming his wand squarely at Dumbledore's chest. Lily saw the urgency in her headmasters' eyes and tugged on James' arm hard and they ran away from the scene but not before James did something very stupid.
'AVADA KEDEVRA,' Snape cried and James lay motionless.
James Potter was dead.
'Arrggghhhhhhh!' Lily screamed
She was lying beneath a heavy draped cloak beneath the stars and she felt frantically around her and poked something hard and stiff that was lying beside her.
AN: THE LAST THREE CHAPTERS HAVE BEEN A DREAM. But is James dead for real? Please read and review
