I don't own Harry Potter.
Chapter 19 "Kid-napping the Red Head"
James had been waiting outside Lily's house. He had seen the Aurors coming and going, and he knew they put protective charms on the house. He knew it would be stupid to try and break in, so he decided to wait for Snape and Lily to come to him. They couldn't stay inside forever.
He had peeked in the living room window, and he had seen Snape holding his possession on the couch, protecting her. The bastard. They would all die. Slowly and painfully, he would make sure of it. The thing that angered him the most was that Lily seemed happy with Snape. He wanted to tear all her hair out and make Snape eat it when he saw Lily looking at Snape with that love in her eyes; it sickened him.
He was getting impatient, waiting, so he broke into the muggles' house next door. There was an old couple living there, and he killed them without a second thought. They were going to go soon anyway. He knew the Ministry would most likely not be able to tell he used magic in this muggle house, because it was in close proximity to Lily, who was a witch. He looked through the old couples' refrigerator and couldn't find what he was looking for: beer. He slammed the door shut angrily. He paced back and forth until he saw the sun peeking over the horizon. When were they going to come out? Were they waiting for him, trying to protect Snape and Lily so he didn't hurt them? Surely they would make some kind of move soon.
He felt a twinge, and knew the mind control curse had been broken. How they had found a counter-curse, he didn't know, but Lily was free of it now, she wasn't just fighting it off. It felt like a rope that had been attaching them was severed. Now there was one left, and he had to get her before they found an antidote, if one existed, for the potion.
James glanced out the window, and to his surprise, saw the Evans' front door finally opening. He quickly went out the back door of the old couple's house, and crouched in some low bushes just on the side of the muggle house as he watched Snape, Lily and one of the Aurors exiting. Stupid idiots didn't even look around to survey the surroundings. Lily followed the two men, and James saw his chance. He pulled out his wand and within seconds, he had stunned Lily, and used Wingardium leviosa to levitate her body to him. He picked her up, feeling the familiar warmth of Lily in his arms and smirked. Now he would get his revenge. Snape and the Auror didn't even notice that she was gone yet. How stupid could they get? Should he show them, so Snape would know who took Lily, and come after him, so he could kill the filthy bastard?
Lily suddenly opened her eyes, looked up at James' face hazily, and screamed as she recognized him, her eyes full of fear.
"Shut up!" James hissed and clapped a hand over Lily's mouth, but the damage was done.
The two men looked around, and horror crossed Snape's face as he saw who was restraining Lily. The Auror pulled out his wand, and shot a spell, but it missed. James shot Snape a smirk before quickly Disapparating with Lily.
Oh no! James has Lily! Will Severus be able to save her in time? Let's hope so.
Please reviewwwww!
