Chapter 9: Another Unexpected Visitor


"LILY" Albus and James yelled simultaneously.

"LILY PLEASE ANSWER US……LILY!!!!"

"JAMES….."

"ALBUS….."

"WHERE ARE YOU?"

The two Potter brothers turned to one another, and mentally asked each other if that was their sister calling?

James listened more intently, but wasn't able to tell if the voice was his sister's, "Lily Luna is that you?"

The sound of not only one, but many individuals' footsteps could be heard making connection with the soft snow-covered earth. Each crunch grew louder as the seconds passed by, and before their very eyes the brothers saw their grandparents, Teddy's father, and their father's Godfather arrive exhausted and out of breath.

"Oh darlings…are you alright?" Lily asked with genuine worry.

Her husband may have trust issues, but she certainly did not. Especially not when she looked into Al's eyes and saw her sweet Harry in them: These children were defiantly her grandchildren, she was positive of that fact.

"Why do you care?!" James Sirius screamed in his grandmother's gentle face. He soon regretted this action after he saw her expression fill with sadness, but the absence of his younger sister helped him keep his resolve.

"How dare you speak to her like that!!!?" James shouted at his younger double, as he pulled out his crafted wand. He still remembered buying the wand when he had just turned eleven. It was one of the greatest days of his life, and he never forgot what he vowed to protect forever with this very wand: his Family. His heart ached as he realized he might be breaking his promise, since he was pointing the magical stick towards his alleged kin.

"No the real question is…HOW DARE YOU ACT LIKE AN ARSE OF A GRANDFATHER!!!" James Sirius could feel his face redden as he finished, his mother would have washed out his mouth with goblin soap if she ever heard him say that.

"What did you say…?" James challenged; deep down he was laughing, if he didn't have such a powerful sense of pride, he would have congratulated the kid on the spunk he possesses.

"My sister wouldn't be missing if YOU hadn't unsettled her!!!!"

"How is it my fault?"

Sirius and Remus stared at their school chum with intensity, and a small degree of disgust. Sirius coldly responded, "You are really going to ask that James…how could you say those things about your family, even if you were unaware of their presence in the room…"

"It is no excuse!!!!!" Completed Remus.

"Yeah and now our sister is MISSING!!!!" Albus spoke up for the first time, startling everyone present.

"HEY!!" Lily hollered with a look desperation, "We need to work together, and find Lily! I don't want any excuses!"

James show resilience, "But Flower –

"Shut up James…before I do anything drastic!!" His wife warned him without even sparing a glance, his back shivered, he had no choice but to listen.

No one wanted to be one Lily Potter's bad side.

"Alright James, Sirius, and myself will go and search –

A scream penetrated the entire forest; Remus could not find his voice to finish what he was previously saying. The group stared at one another with pure fear etched on their face: that scream belonged to Lily!

"LILY!!!!!!!" James Sirius screamed, as panic consumed his entire being; he had never been so frightened in his whole life.

As the group ran, more of Lily's horrified screams could be heard. The brothers felt their minds go blank as they finally saw their sister writhing and struggling against invisible binds. Her delicate face was a mask of pain, and her hands were wild as they searched for something to grab onto in an attempt to ease her intense discomfort.

Both brothers felt the elder men of the group try to hold them back, but they paid no attention to their warning hands. They only wanted to reach their struggling sister; finally breaking free of the adult barrier they ran and crouched down to their little sister's form, and tired to restrain her from hurting herself. She had already bitten her knuckles so hard, that ruby red blood flowed freely from her wound, and was making a contrasting puddle in the white snow.

Although the town itself was experiencing mild temperatures, this forest seemed to have a magically touch which changed the season whenever it pleased.

"Lily! Lils calm down, what is wrong?! LILY!"

Her cries got softer, almost as if she could sense that these strange voices were her big brothers. She whispered hoarsely, "Al….James…….please…make it stop!"

James eyes got frantic, he wanted to help his sister so badly, but what the hell did she mean?

"What do you want us to stop Lil, please tell me…Lils please…?"

James was getting so desperate that he was prepared to ask his unbelieving grandfather for help, however as he turned back to look at the group of elder wizards he was surprised at their formation: They all had their wands held out, awaiting something…something James didn't understand.

A shout.

A malevolent laugh.

Several spells – bringing a variety of lights.

A heart wrenching scream.

It all happened in a millisecond.

Albus Severus Potter opened his piercing green eyes, and feel back onto his bottom at the scene in front of him. His grandparents and their friends were all pinned against the surrounding trees by an invisible force; his brother was frozen at his side; his sister was continuing to struggle and moan with tormenting pain, and right above him stood the scariest woman he had ever seen in his whole life.

Her drowsy insane eyes were shadowed by her untamed dark curls. Her long fingers were delicately grasping her wand, and her expression held boredom and a bit of euphoric pleasure at the site she had created.

She suddenly spotted us, and laughed hysterically "Oh look it's an ity bitty Potter, I didn't know there was more of you…why are you all by yourself little baby Potter?"

James stared at the eccentric woman with wide eyes, he noticed the way she held her wand: steady and in the direction of his sister's poignant figure.

Was she possibly to blame for his sister's sudden painful reaction? From the glint in her eye as she looked at Lily as if she was a pitiful insect; he would guess yes.

Wasting to time, James Sirius Potter jumped up intent on destroying this witch's wand, however the wild haired psychopath's instinct was far more superior then his own, and she grabbed his wrist roughly while shooting a freezing curse into his face.

James saw anger in his sister's brown eyes as he collapsed, unmoving beside her. Her will and stubbornness allowed her to sit upright and shout with the remaining strength her body could muster, "DON'T TOUCH MY BROTHER!!!"

The exotic despicable woman struck Albus with a freezing curse, before approaching the young girl who dared to raise her voice to her; the apprentice of the Dark Lord…the unimaginable nerve! She kicked Lily in her side, ignoring the loud screeches that were emitted by the trapped adults. Stepping on the poor weakling's back Bellatrix raised her wand…and prepared for the final blow.

"Avad-

She wasn't even able to finish, as she was ruthlessly knocked over into the cold snow. Above her stood a fiery haired woman whose face was like a raging bull.

"STAY THE HELL AWAY FROM MY DAUGHTER YOU BITCH!!!!"
