Last time in Dark Friends…
Lying in bed that night, Remus thought over what had happened but only a few hours ago. He was going to have to help protect the girl's and Alec's secret. It was only right. Lily and Dawn had not only kept him being a werewolf a secret but also his friends being illegal animagi. They were supposed to only care about themselves and hate others. But this proved that was wrong. This had made them all closer. He had gained their trust.
"OH JAMMMIIIIIEEEEEE!!! JAMESIE WAMSIE!" Those were the first words heard Christmas morning in the Potter mansion.
James' sleeping figure rolled in his bed and pulled the covers over his head. "Go away Padfoot." He grumbled. He just wanted to sleep in his nice, warm, large comfortable bed. But apparently, his best friend wasn't going to let him.
"Oh come on Prongs! It's Christmas! And Christmas equals presents and food and snow and those wonderful little red and white canes!"
James' muffled and tired voice came out from under the covers. "They're called candy canes Sirius."
Sirius just shrugged. "Oh well. Now come Prongs! AWAKEN! YOUR MASTER COMMANDS YOU!" Sirius grabbed James' blanket and ripped it off him, leaving a suddenly cold, 16 year old wizard in boxers and a white tee-shirt. (A/N: Can you say 'Oh la la' lol)
All James could think about now was two things. One, sleep. Two, Sirius had somehow gotten his hands on coffee from the house elves. A lot of it. He probably snuck into the kitchens and had god knows how many cups.
"PADFOOT! I just wanna sleep! It's only," He glanced at the clock on his nightstand next to his bed. "8 o'clock. Two more hours. Please?"
"Oh c'mon James. It's Christmas! And I already invited the gang to come over in a half an hour so we can go to Diagon Alley later."
"Ugh… Fine Sirius." James grudgingly got out of the bed. He saw there was no point in arguing with him. "But no more coffee for you."
Following a super-caffeinated Sirius, James made his way slowly down the stairs to see his parents also coming down, looking quite awake.
"Good morning James." His mother smiled at him brightly and he just nodded tiredly. He saw his mother frown. "James dear. Why does Sirius have your boxers on his head?"
James eyes widened as he looked up at the site of his best friend running around HIS house with HIS red and gold boxers on his head.
Oh yes! You might be wondering exactly when did Christmas come. Well, break from Hogwarts came three days after Lily's and Dawn's crazy night. And now, James Potter and Sirius Black, the two official hotties of Hogwarts, were currently wrestling on the living room floor in nothing more than their pajamas.
"Honestly you two. Will you ever grow up?" Mrs. Potter rolled her blue eyes. Laurie Potter had long red-brown hair and was very beautiful. In her younger days, she had been a model in Witch Weekly and was currently an Auror for the Ministry like her husband.
"Oh Laurie. Let them be. They're growing boys." Mr. Potter stepped up next to his wife. Lee Potter was the spitting image of James. Messy black hair, tall, hazel eyes with glasses, etc. As a student, he had been exactly like James; one of the most handsome, popular boys in school, played for the Gryffindor quidditch team, and pulled plenty of pranks… He was now one of the top Aurors in the Ministry, often forcing him to miss out of time with his family. And Sirius of course, who was now considered a member of the Potter family.
Sirius had moved in with the Potter only a couple months ago, during the summer before sixth year. He had had enough of his horrible family, ehich was a strong supporter of the Dark Arts and You-Know-Who and had come to the Potter house in the middle of the night with a trunk in one hand and his wand in the other. Most parents would've let their son's best friend stay for a night or two and send them back home, but the Potters didn't. No, they had given Sirius a home. And Sirius was quite happy to have a real one.
Laurie looked at her husband who was giving her the charming Potter smile as she tried to scold the boys. She could never resist that smile. And he knew it.
"Oh, okay. Just make sure they don't break anything like last time. I'm going to help out Gigi with the cooking." Laurie made her way out of the living room towards the kitchen to help one of the house elves with breakfast while Lee watched over the two boys.
"C'mon boys. You want to open your presents or not?"
The boys stopped and looked up him, wide smiles showing up on their faces. Apparently James was awake now.
The boys simultaneously yelled, "PRESENTS!" and ran in the blink of an eye to the extremely large and decorated tree in the living room that reached the ceiling and was next to the large fireplace.
James and Sirius knew Lee and Laurie Potter were the best at giving gifts.

Meanwhile, things were going along much quieter in the Evans' household…
"MOTHER!!!"
Okay. Maybe not so quiet…
"MOTHER!!! I TOLD YOU NOT TO HAVE THE FREAKS COME HOME! I'M AWAY FOR ONE WEEK WITH MY FRIENDS AND COME BACK TO SEE THOSE TWO HERE!"
A tall and bony woman with blonde hair and blue eyes came down the stairs not looking too happy. Her neck was exceedingly long and she wore large amounts of eye shadow, blush, and lipstick.
Claudia Evans sighed at the kitchen table and put her tea cup down onto the counter. This always happened when the girls came home for the holidays.
Claudia Evans originally had black hair but had dyed it red so everyone would believe she was really Lily's mother (A/N: Remember, Lily was adopted at an orphanage. Refer back to Ch. 1) and brown eyes and was quite tall. She worked in the Prime Minister of England's office as his personal secretary and helped him deal with many problems including those with the magical Ministry of Magic. She was quite good at that as her two daughters (she referred to Dawn as her own daughter) were both witches. However, this job caused her to often not be able to be home be it a meeting with an Abassador or President or go to a charity event. But she had gotten one the few days she was allowed to have off and she just wanted a nice, happy Christmas. Not the kind with screaming and fights.
Following the tall blonde down the stairs, were Lily and Dawn, both wearing black jeans, matching black corset-like tank tops that showed their belly button rings, and grinning like mad women.
"Lily, Dawn. What did you do to Petunia?"
Lily gave an innocent look. "I don't know mum. She came up and saw us in the study reading our spell books and started screaming."
This upset Petunia. "Mum! They had their f-f-fan-…" She couldn't continue.
Dawn grinned sweetly. "I think the term you're looking for is 'fangs' Petunia." At this, Petunia cringed, remembering the site of the two witch vampire girls baring their fangs at her.
Claudia sighed again and shook her head. "What did I tell you girls about scaring Petunia? It's Christmas and we still can't get any peace."
"Sorry mum."
"Sorry Claudia."
The apologies came at the same time and Claudia rolled her eyes. "Dawn. What have I told you? You can call me mum."
"Yes Claud- I mean mum." Dawn looked down. She was very grateful to the Evans' (well, not Petunia) and she did everything they told her to do, and she loved them dearly. But she still had trouble calling them "mum" and "dad".
Claudia smiled. "That's better. Now, come and let's open your presents. Your father had an emergency down at the hospital and should be back in an hour or so."
Phillip Evans worked at one of the best and most respectable hospitals in all of London and was one of the best doctors there too. For that reason, he was often called to the hospital to do surgery on some famous or wealthy person. Phillip had blonde hair and blue eyes and like his wife, was tall. He was home more than his wife and loved to hear from Lily and Dawn all about magic and Hogwarts. He was amazed by the magic ways to cure broken bones, injuries, and other illnesses.
The girls nodded eagerly and ran to the medium-sized tree to pick up their presents underneath it.
Lily lifted up first a small box wrapped in green wrapping paper. Taking off the paper and opening the box, Lily found a beautiful silver bracelet with an emerald with a diamond on each side of it.
Dawn opened a box also, though wrapped in blue and after opening it, found a bracelet much like Lily's only the stone was a blue topaz.
After hugging their mother (who the gift was from) the girls went to the larger presents, that they knew came from their father. Opening the gifts, Lily and Dawn saw in each of their hands, a brand new Nimbus 1000. It was the newest and fastest broom out on the market! The two girls looked at each other and grinned. They couldn't wait to use them.
Then came Petunia's present. A small piece of paper. Saying "Merry Christmas Freaks." It was obvious that Claudia and Jacob had forced her to write it.
An hour later and after a bunch present opening, Claudia looked up. "Dawn. Did you get Alec anything?"
Dawn and Lily had told them they had found Dawn's bother and although at first they were shocked, it quickly turned to happiness. They were happy to know Dawn had a member of her family she could talk to and Claudia was very anxious to meet him. Though, the girls didn't tell them Alec was a servant of Voldemort's… That wouldn't have gone along too well.
Dawn shook her head and Lily spoke for her. "We were planning on going out to get him something, and sending it to him."
The parents nodded (Jacob had come home) and told the girls to go and get it now. So after changing into long sleeved black shirts and their dark green (Lily's) and blue (Dawn's) jackets, the girls went out. They didn't really need long sleeves or the jacket but as there were light flurries out today, they needed to blend in.
After walking 10 minutes, the girls came into the square of their small town of Canterbury, just north of London. It was only a 20 minute drive from the large city but a very little-known town. Canterbury itself was cute and carming. All the people knew each other, tourists would come now and then (usually in the summer) and it was just one of those little English villages you always heard about. Simple, quaint, and nice.
Going into some shops, the girls looked around for something they could get Alec. The two girls quickly came to the conclusion there wasn't going to be anything good in their small town, so they hurried home to ask if they could go to Diagon Alley, the perfect present finding location.
Getting home and asking, the girls got the consent to go. Lily went first into the fireplace after taking up a handful of Floo Powder the Evans' had bought to allow Lily and Dawn to stay in contact with the magic world.
"Leaky Cauldron."
Lily disappeared in the large green flames. Shutting her eyes as she spun quickly, Lily was hurled out onto the floor of the tavern/inn of the Leaky Cauldron, some ashes getting on her. Getting up quickly, Lily barely made it out of Dawn's way as she, like Lily, came flying out of the fireplace.
The girls dusted themselves off and made their way to the back of the inn and into a small garden where after taking out her wand, Lily tapped the brick wall that stood before them in a pattern. Slowly the wall began to open up to Diagon Alley.
Hurrying, Lily and Dawn decided to split up and get something for Alec from each of them. The two separated in two directions.
Walking into the book shop Flourish and Botts, Lily looked around for anything interesting. Going to the shelves, she began to look for something that Alec might like.
'Hmmm… Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, 100 Ways to Rid Yourself of Warts, Find Your Inner Eye… Ugh! There are no good books!'
Lily was about to turn out of the aisle she was in and go out of the shop when something red caught her eye.
Going to the book that had caught her eyes, Lily picked it up, admiring it. The book itself was covered in beautiful red leather, the pages slightly tinted golden in their sides. On the front, there was no title and opening it, she saw the title. The Secret Arts, but no author. Flipping through the mysterious book, Lily saw abunch of strange pictures and names of spells she had never heard of before. Lily checked to see the price but saw none.
Going up to the counter where an old witch stood with a friendly smile, Lily put the book down. "Excuse me. How much is this? I can't find a price on it."
The old woman looked at the book confusedly. "Hmmm… I don't remember that one. Someone must have left it here... You can take it dear."
"Oh. Okay. Thank you. Happy Christmas." Without even waiting for a bag for the book or response, Lily turned and hurried out of the store. She went into more shops to look around and eventually came to Dawn in a trinket shop. She was surrounded by some guys Lily recognized instantly as Slytherins, including the ring leader, Lucius Malfoy.
"Where's your mudblood friend, eh Kortz? I thought you two were inseparable." Lucius sneered at Dawn.
Dawn still looking around at the shelves she was near, responded calmly, "Shouldn't you and your goons go back to Knockturn Alley. After all, you fit in wonderfully there. Ugly and quite rank smelling."
"Why you-"Malfoy lifted his hand about to hit Dawn when a hand came out and grabbed Lucius' hand.
Dawn and Lily turned their head to saw Remus Lupin not looking very happy. "Malfoy. I thought you were above hitting girls. Guess I was wrong."
"Lupin. Mind your own business. This has nothing to do with you."
Lily stepped in now. "He's right Remus. Let Dawn handle this." Both boys turned to her with widened eyes. Malfoy recovered quickest and smirked.
"I guess your mudblood friend doesn't like you as much you thought Kortz. Now you'll finally get what you deserve." Malfoy raised his hand and was only inches from Dawn's face when she grabbed his arm and twisted his wrist back and a crack was heard.
Malfoy fell to the ground clutching his wrist as Dawn just stood there. After a few seconds, she turned back to a shelf of singing shrunken head and continued looking, humming lightly to herself.
The cronies helped Lucius up and they all ran out, afraid that they too would end up with a broken wrist like Malfoy.
Remus stared at the girls as they both smiled brightly.
Dawn turned away from the shelf she was looking at. "So Remus, what are you doing here? I thought you would be with either your family or friends today."
As Remus was about to open his mouth, laughter could be heard coming towards them from the entrance of the store. The three turned to see the Marauders coming towards them.
Remus turned to the girls. "I'm with them."
"Remus, you see Malfoy?! He totally just ran out of here clutching his wrist saying he was gonna get back at her. Must've broken it. Hilarious! I would've loved to see that happen!"
Dawn and Lily smirked slightly. James noticed them. "Whoa. Evans? Kortz? What happened to you? And what are you smirking at?"
Lily and Dawn looked at each other and realized they were wearing not only black but also green or blue. (A/N: Remember the jackets?) It must've seemed strange to the boys as the two girls only wore black at school, and had never seen any real color but that and some red on them.
Before the girls could respond, Remus spoke. "They're here for last minute Christmas shopping guys. Dawn was the one who broke Malfoy's wrist."
The girls glared at him and read his thoughts. 'They would've found out anyway."
The Marauders stared wide eyed at Dawn.
"Wow. I never thought I'd say this, but that was bloody brilliant! How'd you do it?" Sirius asked excitedly.
Dawn glared at him. "Wanna find out for yourself?"
Sirius unknowingly took a step back. "Whoa. Temper, temper. Might want to fix that Kortz. Maybe try some anger management classes…"
Sirius was cut off when Dawn grabbed his wrist and twisted it back like she did to Malfoy's only not as far. Sirius cringed in pain and all the Marauders could do was watch.
Dawn said in a cold voice, "That's how I did it. And if you don't shut up soon, I'll have to bend it back further." To emphasize her point, she pushed Sirius wrist back ever so slightly making Sirius wince.
"Dawn. Let go of him." Lily said sternly. She didn't want there to be violence today. It was Christmas. Dawn dropped Sirius' wrist and stepped back, looking down as he clutched his wrist and the Marauders surrounded him to look at the damage.
Lily began pushing Dawn forward, towards the door of the store. "C'mon. We're leaving."
"But I haven't found anything for him yet. It wouldn't be right. He deserves to get a present. You go on ahead. I'll meet you in 15 minutes in front of the Leaky Cauldron."
The girls walked past the Marauders, Lily giving an apologetic smile at her friend's short temper, and the two once again went separate ways.
The Marauders just stood and watched the two girls leave and back down at Sirius' wrist. It was no doubt sprained. James then remembered a time in 2nd year when Evans had done the almost exact same thing.

James was running down the hall late to Transfiguration. He cursed to himself for sleeping in so late and his friends for not waking him sooner. He had been out late setting up a prank and hadn't come back to the dorm by at least 2. Hurrying around a corner, he almost ran into Lily who was standing in the hallway as if waiting for something.
She glared hard at him. "Watch it."
James took a step back. He didn't know much but this girl had always been a bit scary. Her name was Lily Evans and she didn't have any friends, just that Kortz girl. All the other girls who slept in the dorms with them had all told him and the other Marauders how they were always together and refused to talk to them.
"Sorry. I was just in a rush and didn't see you."
Evans just turned from him and answered in a cool voice, "Whatever." She then stiffened and James heard footsteps coming.
Around the corner came a group of 5th year Slytherins. Seeing the two 2nd years, the group smiled evilly and began circling us. They could use some fun.
"Well, well, well, what do we have here? Two little second years. I think we could have some fun with these two. Don't you think guys?"
The others guys just grinned and took out their wands. The speaker of the group took Lily by the shoulder roughly. "I recognize you. You're one of those filthy mudbloods. Well, that simply won't do. You dont belong here."
Lily glared hard at him. "Let. Go. Of. Me."
The Slytherins just laughed. Who was this Mudblood to think she could tell THEM what to do. The one holding her wrist tightened his grip and sneered at her. "Or what mudblood? You're just second year filth. You can't do anything to me little girl." The cronies laughed as well did the boy.
At that moment Lily grabbed the wrist of his hand holding her shoulder and flipped the giant boy over.
Once on the ground Lily continued to hold his wrist while pushing it back making the boy scream in pain. After a few seconds, Lily let go and watched the boy get up and run away with the other boys following him.
Lily turned back to James. "I was never here. Got it?" Without even getting a response, she turned on her heel and left leaving a shocked James in the middle of the hallway. He heard her say over her shoulder "You're going to be late." James quickly came back to reality and ran towards the Transfiguration room, trying to forget everything he just saw.

James was interrupted from his thoughts from Sirius shaking his arm. "Prongs. You think you're mum could fix it up? I don't wanna have a sprained wrist for the rest of vacation."
"Yeah. She should have no problem fixing it up." But James was thinking of only one thing.
'They're hiding something... Something big...'

Dear Alec,
I'm sorry I couldn't find anything good for you for Christmas. But I hope you liked your chocolates! Also, Lily found the strangest thing. I'll tell you all about it at school. Most likely this letter will be intercepted by some stupid Ministry official because 6th year Gryffindors are really plotting against the government. I hope some Ministry official is reading this right now. You're all stupid buggers! Also, Lily's parents would love to meet you sometime. I told them all about you. Well, not EVERYTHING but you know what I mean. I'll see you soon.
Love, your sister,
Dawn
PS: It feels so weird and good to write that.
"Dawn! C'mon. We're going out to dinner now."
"Coming Lily." Dawn quickly rolled up the letter and tied it to Lily's owl, Flame. (Flame was a reddish owl with eyes that were gold-orange with red specks in them that had reminded Lily of fire, thus her name. Dawn's own owl, Storm, was currently out hunting. Storm was a pure black owl with a lightning shaped white spot on her breast, thus the name, Storm. )
Dawn opened the window to let the owl out and closed it after she flew away.
Running down the stairs, she came up to Lily and both ran out to the car where Claudia and Jacob had the car running waiting for them. Petunia had gone out with some friends and said she was staying there for a few days. She didn't want to be with the freaks.
Jacob and Claudia had decided to go to London for dinner so after a half hour drive, the car arrived at a nice, four star restaurant. Naturally, one had to wear formal attire to the restaurant.
Jacob was wearing one of his nice black suits and Claudia, a gold dress that had thick straps on it and a gold necklace with amber in the middle.
Lily and Dawn had convinced the parents to let them wear black so they both wore the same black dress with long sleeves and some of the tousle from underneath showing. The back was tied and they wore also the bracelets they had been given for Christmas and had taken out all extra piercings.
Sitting down, the girls were too busy debating about which band was better (Rolling Stones or Pink Floyd) to notice none other than James Potter and his parents sitting only a few tables away.

James sighed, terribly bored. Sirius had been called away to one of his uncles' funeral and it was the one that he actually got along with. So Sirius had left him for the funeral, Peter was under watch from his mother for sneezing, and Remus had left to go up north to Wales only an hour ago, to visit his cousins thus leaving James all alone at dinner with his parents.
Not that he minded eating with his parents. It was just much more fun to eat with his friends.
James was knocked out of his thinking when he noticed Lily Evans and Dawn Kortz as they sat down and watched as the two girls talked enthusiastically while, who he guessed were Lily's parents, just sat by and watched, making some talk of their own.
When the waiter arrived, Lily and Dawn instantly ordered two filet-mignons, asnrare as the restaurant would allow. Receiving a strange look from the waiter, he just nodded carefully and went on to ordering from the parents, leaving the girls to talk again.
James scrunched his eyebrows in confusion. Did they just order almost rare steak? Heck, did they just ORDER! At school they barely ate anything. It was a rare occasion to see them out any bit of food in their mouth and most of the school thought them either anorexic or able to survive on almost no food.

In mid-sentence Lily suddenly stopped, sensing a familiar presence and seemed to concentrate on something.
Claudia looked on wondering what had made her talkative daughter so silent suddenly. "What is it Lily?"
Lily sighed once finding the familiar presence and its owner. "James Potter. He's here. And watching us."
"Oh. You mean the boy you always go on about in your letters home? If you ask me Lily, I believe he likes you a bit." Jacob smiled teasingly.
Lily rolled her eyes and made a disgusted face. "Dad. That's just disgusting. He's one of the most arrogant, self-centered pricks I have ever met. And he always goes aound with his group the Marauders picking on those he feels lower than him. If you ask me, they sould all just go take a large stick and shove it up--"
Dawn interrupted Lily's rant. "How long has he been watching us Lily?" Lily stopped talking and after getting back to the topic at hand, shrugged. "Only five, ten minutes. Let's just ignore him and continue on with our dinner."

James tried to catch what they were saying, but they spoke in quieter voices, making him unable to hear. It didn't take Lee and Laurie long to realize there son wasn't paying any attention to the conversation at hand and looked to where he was looking, to see two pretty girls his age, one red headed and the other black haired..
"You know those girls?"
"Ummm, yeah. They're in my class at school. Lily Evans and Dawn Kortz."
Lee looked at the girls and thought they seemed familiar. The black haired girl actually reminded him of an old friend he had, Niall Delarosa, and the red haired one, a woman he had met once at the Ministry at least 20 years ago. But that would be impossible. Niall and his family had all been destroyed. And that woman he knew certainly wasn't the woman with the girls right now. Nonetheless, he asked James, "Is the red haired one Lily and the black haired one Dawn?"
James gave his dad a questioning look. "Yeah. Why?"
Lee shook his head. "Oh, no reason. They just remind me of two people I knew."
Laurie intervened. "Oh James. Go on and say hello to the girls. You ARE classmates after all."
A sudden crash interrupted everyone's thoughts. Laurie and Lee gripped at their wands in their pockets, ready to take them out if necessary but all that was, was an apologetic waiter with a few plates of food dropped on the floor next to Lily.
"Oh, I'm sorry miss. I seemed to have tripped. I'll get this cleaned up right away."
James was ready to see her glare at him and yell at his stupidity but was surprised to see a gentle smile.
"It's okay. It was an accident." She and Dawn knelt down and began to help the waiter clean up, not minding the food getting on her hands and some of her dress. "Here. We'll help."
Suddenly, a heavy, short man came up to the table with an apologetic look. "Oh I am so sorry for this." The man had a dreadful Italian accent. "I'll make sure he is disposed of right away."
As Dawn continued to help clean up with the waiter, Lily stood and gave the "Italian" man a cold look. "Don't fire him because of one mistake. It was technically your own fault. There is a rise in the carpet there." She pointed next to her chair where the waiter had tripped and a rise indeed could be seen. "If anything, YOU should be the one apologizing and cleaning it up. This is how you run a restaurant? Blaming others for your own mistakes? I'm surprised someone hasn't gotten hurt yet. "
Shocked by her maturity and well composed manner, the man couldn't speak for a moment. When his voice came back, he stumbled for the right words, as to avoid the cold look she gave him.
"I-I am sorry miss. I-I'll have a new plate of food ready right away." Without waiting, the man walked away quickly as did the waiter with the plates of food on his tray. But not before muttering a soft "Thank you."
Lily nodded towards him and went to the bathroom to clean up, coming back a few minutes later to sit back down and talk to Dawn again while James just stared. His parents looked on at her impressed.
"My. That girl is quite mature… Why can't you be like that James?" Laurie teased him lightly.
James just gave a weak laugh but was in deep thought. The two ice queens of his school had just been NICE! Oh, if only Padfoot could've seen it! No one would ever believe him. But then again, he himself barely believed. Why? Why were the two girls so nice out here and so cold and uncaring in school?
He continued to be in deep thought as he watched the Evans family laugh at a joke that a man, he guessed was Lily's dad, had just told.
Against his better judgment, James had to admit. Evans did look quite pretty that night with her black dress, happy smile, warm eyes, and her loud, charming laugh.
Well, I hope you enjoyed it. Please review! I'll try to update quicker. And I think this is my longest chapter yet... YAY:) Well, please review!
