Chapter 5: Visiting
Several Healers were scrambling around Lily's room, trying desperately to control her. She had gotten at not being able to remember anything, and lost control. Several things were exploding and wind whipped through the room as Lily levitated a foot off the bed, her eyes completely green, with a gold-ish glow.
Suddenly, Dumbledore walked into the room and the Healers froze. Things continued to blow up as Dumbledore chuckled slightly, but the explosions got smaller and smaller. The wind slowed down and Lily slowly drifted back down to the bed, as her eyes returned to their normal state.
Dumbledore got out his wand and waved it, and the damage was cleaned instantly. He walked over to the Head Healer in the room, and held a quick whispered discussion with her, before sitting down on Lily's bed. Then all the Healers hurriedly left the room and Lily and Dumbledore were left alone.
Lily eyed Dumbledore carefully. What he had done with his wand had interested her, but also slightly frightened her. She jumped slightly when he stuck out his hand to Lily.
"Hello, Lily Evans. My name is Albus Dumbledore. I don't suppose you remember, but we have met before." Lily's expression darkened slightly, but she shook his hand anyway.
"Nice to meet you…again." Lily said warily. Dumbledore chuckled slightly, a bright twinkle in his eyes.
"Alright, then. Let's get to why I'm here then, shall we?" Lily nodded unsurely. "You, Lily Evans, go to the school that I run. It is a school for children with a gift."
"What gift?"
"Magic, Miss Evans." Lily looked thoughtfully at Dumbledore.
"Is it…um, your school…is is called…Hogwarts?" Dumbledore nodded in surprise.
"It seems that you are starting to remember some things. Very good. Now, it seems however that we have a small matter to clear up. Do you have any idea how you just levitated a foot off the bed, controlled the wind, and made several objects explode?"
"Um…not really. I just got really angry and frustrated with not being able to remember anything, and then it just sort of happened." Dumbledore smiled, broadly.
"It has come to my attention, that you are not an ordinary witch. I believe you to be a sorceress."
"A sorceress? Wouldn't that be the same thing?" Dumbledore shook his head.
"No. A sorceress is much different and much more powerful. A sorceress's magic is affected by their emotions. In times of great anger, for example, usually a great amount of items are destroyed, as you just demonstrated. However, in times of great sadness, usually the sorceress themselves is destroyed through suicidal actions. I believe that would explain part of your suicide attempt." Lily's face clouded.
"I…attempted suicide?" Lily asked quietly.
"I am afraid so, Miss Evans. However, I believe it was mostly out of your control. Anyway, I came here to give you the news of your powers and to tell you that I have spoken with the Healers and they have consented to let you come back to school."
"Alright. So I'm going back to school. When?"
"Tommorrow. I have arranged for James to escort you to all your classes and such as you share the head tower. I daresay he has been quite worried about you."
"Do I get a wand?"
"I'm afraid your wand was destroyed on impact with the rocks." Lily gasped as suddenly a memory flashed before her eyes.
…"Lily! Lily get down from there! Lily you could fall and break your neck!" James sounded so worried, but Lily just laughed.
"That's the general idea." Her voice was cold and fierce. James was taken aback…
"Yes now. Yes now! Tell me what the hell is wrong!" Lily's face contorted with fury…
"NOT! NOW!" She screamed… James flew backwards into the wall and he sunk to the floor. He looked at Lily horrified…
"Good-bye James. I always did love you." And with those words she fell…
James rushed over to the window and watched her fall. And fall. And fall. She had a brilliant smile on her face, and her green eyes sparkled. Then she hit the rocks and her body went limp…
Tears streamed down her eyes. Dumbledore watched her worriedly. She turned her head to face him.
"It hurt. It hurt so much." She whispered. Her breathing ragged.
"What did? Hitting the rocks?"
"The way James looked at me. He wanted to help me, but I jumped. I just jumped." She buried her face in her hands and sobs racked her body. Dumbledore patted her gently, and waited until she calmed downed.
"I'm sorry Miss Evans, that I brought it up." Lily shook her head.
"Don't be. At least I remember something now. And I remember James too. He'll be happy, right? That I remember him a little?" Dumbledore smiled slightly.
"Ecstatic. Now, I believe you should get some rest. I will send someone to pick you up tomorrow. I daresay that some of your friends will want to have a party upon your return." Lily smiled and pulled the covers up as she lay down.
"So I'll see you tomorrow, then. Good-bye, Professor."
"Good-bye, Miss Evans." Dumbledore turned and backed out of the room as Lily's eyes flickered shut. I better go tell James. He'll want to plan her coming home party. Dumbledore smiled and walked down the white hallway towards Hogwarts, as Lily slept on.
