Chapter 26 – Dates, Fights, Mystery

Daniel was by now snoring on one of Trelawney's small circular tables, as Lily tried to have a nap too.

"One of us will be having bad luck in the near future! My inner eye sees it! Are you all in the Beyond? I think you are!" Trelawney spoke dramatically as everyone murmured, "Mmm."

"Lils, how long is this lesson?" Daniel asked groggily as he had just woke up.

Lily had by now fallen asleep too, and so did not answer. Suddenly she started muttering in her sleep and moving about as if she was escaping from something.

"Lils, dude wake up!" Dan yelled, as he panicked. He stood up and started shaking his cousin roughly.

"We must call the Headmaster!" someone yelled.

"No, the Hospital Wing would be fine!" was the reply.

Suddenly Trelawney's eyes, rolled back, and in a hoarse voice she hissed,

"The Daughter of the Stag, shall be reunited with master, and nothing can stop this unless the Power of Love!"

Daniel turned white, as half the class did. Soon Trelawney was back to normal and dismissed the class, without realising what had just happened.

Lily's eyes suddenly snapped open, and Dan could see that her face was white and she was frightened.

"Lily are you ok?"

"No, I am not. Something's happening, I can feel it!" she said in a panic-stricken voice.

"Nothing's gonna happen, dude," Dan said, as he put his arm around her shoulder, and the two walked out of Trelawney's den. Lily could see the students looking at her with a strange look and she realised that something had happened whilst she was sleeping.

"Dan, did something happen?"

"Um, well I can't lie to you. Trelawney muttered something about Daughter of Stag reunited with master, unless arrival of love or something like that!"

Lily nodded and in a whisper added, "Remember last time, the voice? Well I heard him in my sleep, and he kept saying that we'll be reunited!"

"Lil, don't worry, we'll take care of you. Now try to think about something happy! It's your parents' wedding this Christmas, right? You should be happy."

Lily smiled, and the two walked to meet Kevin and join him for Potions.

"Hermione, what do you think of this dress?" Ginny asked happily.

Hermione gasped, and her eyes shone as she looked at the dress. "You'll look wonderful!" she then exclaimed happily. "It's been designed for you, this dress, I tell you!"

"It's true. It looks so beautiful," she said as she touched the satin skirt. It was a classical white wedding dress, with the arms made from lace, and a long, big, satin skirt. The dress fell from her shoulders.

"Harry will die when he'll see you in this!" Hermione muttered, and the two giggled.

/-

"We haven't heard from Lily for two weeks now," Harry said as he and Ron sat by the table in the garden. The two had just finished their Quidditch Practise at Harry's house.

"Does it bother you?" Ron asked.

"Well no, but Ginny will start to get worried again if she does not have her news. I mean, at last she's calmed down and is so happy preparing for the Wedding and stuff. I don't want her to be in a bad mood."

"Yeah, I understand. But don't worry, you'll soon hear from her!"

"Of course," Harry said as he smiled. Then he muttered, "In two months' time, I'll be married with Ginny!"

Ron said, "I'm so glad for you mate!"

A week later – Saturday 7th November

"Lily!" Adriana called.

"Hey Adie," Lily called back, as she pulled Kevin with her. "So you came to Hogsmeade too?"

"Yes. At first I was not coming, but then Dan asked me to come, and so we came a bit for a drink."

"Oh I see! Cause I remember not seeing you at the queue for Hogsmeade before," Kev said.

"Yeah," Adriana muttered as she smiled. "Well I'll leave you! I must get Dan out of Zonko's!"

"See ya!"

"So Lil, wanna go for a drink?" Kev asked, as he put his arm round her shoulders.

"Yes, sure!" Lily said.

As the two sat by a table at the Three Broomsticks, Lily saw Ale leaving the Three Broomsticks. He had definitely not seen them, and she saw him, leading his way to the Outskirts of Hogsmeade, from the dirty window, looking strange.

"Hey Lil, um," Kev started, as he got out from his pocket a silver necklace, "Would you accept this um as … ?"

Noticing his discomfort, Lily smiled, and took the necklace from his hands. "Thanks!" she muttered, and softly kissed him.

/-

Without knowing how he had arrived there, Ale found himself at the old Hogsmeade Park. It was dark, and suddenly the sky had turned cloudy. He could not remember what had happened. All he could remember was being at the Three Broomsticks having a drink, and then finding himself here.

Suddenly, he felt a hand on his shoulder. He turned round, and saw a cloaked figure.

The cloaked figure's face was hidden but Ale could feel the atmosphere much colder now. Suddenly Ale could smell a strange sickly smell, and he fainted.

/-

Ale found himself in his dormitory, and could not remember how he had arrived there.

"Hmm, maybe I drank a lot of firewhiskey and got drunk, and so I do not remember my way back here!" he said and shrugged. As he looked at his watch he read half past 8. "Whoa, it's that late already!"

He made his way down in the Common Room, and saw Lily reading a letter from her parents. He smiled and approached her.

"Hey Lil!"

"Ale, everything ok?"

"Yeah, sure!"

"I saw you at the Three Broomsticks!"

"Really, I did not see you, sorry!" Ale said sincerely. "Listen, wanna go for a walk?"

/-

"Shut up Kev!" Lily yelled. The two were in the Common Room and were having an argument. Lily had just returned at from a walk by the lake and it was almost midnight.

"No! You shut up!"

"Listen, I don't understand your anger! I did not do anything! I just went for a walk with Ale!"

"You said so, you went for a walk with that git!"

"One, do not call him a git. And two," Lily yelled as she put up two fingers in the air, "WE just walked. Can't I walk with a friend? You never grumble when I go for a walk with Adriana or Delicata!"

"But they're girls!" Kev muttered.

"And Ale is a boy. But this does not mean that I'll betray you or anything!"

"How do I know this? I know that he likes you!"

"You may not trust him, but at least you should trust me!" Lily said as her eyes shone with anger and tears.

"I just can't get to trust you right now!"

"And why not?"

"Because, I-"

"Just shut the fuck up!" Lily yelled angrily for the last time, and ran out of the Common Room, without knowing where she was heading to.

Kevin watched her go, and did not do anything about it. Instead he ran up to his dormitory.

As Lily was walking, she suddenly seemed to realise that it was pitch black, and she did not know where she was heading to. She put her hand in her pocket trying to find her wand but remembered that she had forgotten the Wand in her dorm.

She only had the boomerang which her uncles Gred and Forge had given her in one of her pockets. Suddenly remembering the necklace which Kevin had given her, she removed it from her neck, and held it in her hand, ready to dispose it, in the first suitable place.

Lily kept walking as she was still too angry to return to the empty Common Room. She needed to stay all by herself in the dark. And suddenly she met her fear.

"Lily!" it was the fearsome hissing voice again.

Lily gasped as she heard the voice, and started running in no particular direction. Suddenly she found herself at the edge of a staircase, and letting out a frightened scream she tumbled down the stairs.

As she reached the bottom of the stairs, she hit her head, and lost consciousness. Suddenly the cloaked figure appeared from thin air, and got Lily in his arms. Lily's necklace fell from her hand and without knowing Lily was taken far away from Hogwarts; her home.
