Chapter 2 The Irrevocable Doll
A/N: Don't feel like writing my 4'n'1/2 page paper for EPOC… oh well… Here is the second chapter…
And here's a 'random' quote
"Death cannot stop true love. All it can do is ... delay it for a while."
A/N: Yeah… I wrote this a while ago… sorry for the wait… anyways the italics are flashbacks, multiple flashbacks from different times…
Groaning as if in pain, the girl on the white hospital bed opened her eyes. Looking down she saw lots of tubes and an IV connecting her to a steady beeping machine. Her head hurt like hell and she couldn't move for she was tied down by the stuff plugged in her. Glancing around the room she saw flowers with cards and boxes of her favorite sweets on every available surface. She smiled weakly, but even that hurt. She was sore all over and felt so drugged that she couldn't think clearly. A nurse walked in and smiled at her when she noticed that she was awake. She started to talk but the girl could only see her mouth move as she faded away.
The screeching of tires, burnt smell of tires, the sliding of a car in the snow, the frightened look of her friends, the feeling of falling, the deafening shatter of glass, deafening sound of sirens, holding on, letting go, gone.
"Hush baby don't cry
Daddy's gunna sing a lullaby
His voice may be bad
But be glad, even though he'd not your real dad
Mommy's out of town
But don't frown
Adopted you are
Your real moms very far
We love you like I love to dive
But you parents are alive
Your last name is –"
"Dave! What are you doing- you're drunk! Give me my baby-"
"Technically she's ado-" but the horrified foster mother stomped out of the room with the baby in her arms protectively, and slammed the door.
"Twins! NO! He can't find out! Adoption? My baby! Must be a better way! Does it have to be the girl? I love you! I will see you again! Then we can be a family! NO! NOOOOO!"
"They died, you were the only one that survived, but you'll never be able to walk again."
There was a loud thud at the end of a dark hall and moaning. A head snapped towards the lump on the ground. It moved. Staying cautiously in the shadows she crept up and let out a terrified squeak.
"James! James! Help!" The Head girl cried distraughtly, for she had never stumbled on something this bad in all her years of patrolling the halls at Hogwarts. A messy haired boy appeared out of nowhere and hurried over.
"What's wrong Lily?" He asked concerned, imaging the worst possible scenarios.
"We need to get help! She's bleeding!" Lily exclaimed as she started to panic.
"Shit!" James started sending red sparks up with his wand, since it was what the prefects and heads did on rounds when someone's life was in danger, and it alerted the professors that were nearby immediately.
"Look, It says that they are by the East tower, and Dumbledore is there along with the Headmaster!" A shaggy black haired boy announced as he looked at the secret map he had creates with three of his best friends.
"There is a fifth dot… Hermione Granger…." A shaggy brown haired boy announced as he checked the map after closing his book on werewolves and animagi.
"I'm hungry, let's go down to the kitchens-"
"And on the way stop by where James and Evans are and ask them what happened." Interrupted the boy with piercing blue eyes who was holding the map.
"Mischief Managed," he said and the lines on the map disappeared as if they were being sucked into the parchment, then he folded it up and put in a pocked in his robes.
"Lets go then Padfoot, oh and Wormtail try to keep quiet this time and not trip over anything, I don't really want to get caught tonight." The boy said while setting his book on the table and standing up, and Wormtail gave an indignant squeak mumbling how it wasn't his fault.
"C'mon Moony, hurry up." Padfoot said from the doorway.
"No one was there, then all of a sudden she appeared out of nowhere and I looked and then I called James over and-"
"Thank you Miss Evans" The Headmaster calmly told the distraught girl who was in tears while she retold what had happened.
"Albus has taken the girl to the hospital wing, you two can resume your rounds and just pretend none of this happened until we find out more about her, and then we'll notify you two. Now off you go." He said without a trace of the smile that normally graced his old worn wrinkly face. The way he said it seemed like he knew something that he was keeping from them.
"Thank you Headmaster, c'mon Lily, we still have our rounds to finish." James said taking Lily's hand and dragging her down the hallway and around the corner, suddenly stopping and turning back to spy on the headmaster. Something was wrong, for he was still standing in the same spot, and staring at where that mysterious girl had been laying a few minutes ago.
"Something's not right" James whispered to a confused Lily. All of a sudden, out of nowhere three boys appeared and hurried over to where Lily and James were.
"Something's not right." James repeated to the boys.
"Oh come off it, I mean nothing out of the ordinary happened, because we find unconscious girls popping out of nowhere and bleeding to their death with green auras of protection magic oozing from around them while it all happens in the East hall under the portrait of Leah Gredall at midnight, when there isn't a moon in the sky, or clouds." Lily said sarcastically, then realizing the depth of what she had just said.
"Shit you're right!" She exclaimed.
