Lily Evans Potter had two worst memories - the first being when Severus Snape called her a mudblood and forever ended their friendship, and their growing romance was her first worst memory. And the second?
Lily and James had been well informed about Voldemort, they were active members of The Order of the Phoenix, and had taken down many of his Death Eaters. That was why it scared them so much when Dumbledore informed them that Voldemort was interested in Harry.
He'd come along to Godric's Hollow on a day, which beforehand had seemed perfect, until Dumbledore came. He arrived unexpectedly, with a loud crack, and without his signature twinkle. They knew something was wrong. The mood instantly darkened, and they sat down with the customary lemon drops for a seemingly important discussion. Of course, as they found out, it was an incredibly important discussion. Fear and shock enveloped them both.
Harry's safety was the most important thing, that was for certain. Going to hiding was agreed upon as soon as it was brought up. There was no denying that they were amazingly brave aurors, and true Gryffindors, but they both valued their family above anything else.
The hiding wasn't that bad, though the guests were limited. The Marauders were still as close, and Sirius, Remus and Peter visited every day, although Peter seemed to be acting rather shiftily around her, but she just put it down to war nerves. Her old roommate, Venus, who she had been closest to came round a few times a week as well, but nothing could match the Marauders level of friendship. Sirius was someone she was sure she could trust, however when the secret-keeping was handed to Peter, she was doubtful.
She wasn't that shocked when she realized that Peter had betrayed him, infact when Voldemort had broken into their house, although she was rather ashamed to admit it, her first thought was along the lines of how she'd kill Peter, and what a bastard he was. It was terrifying.
"Lily," she heard James yell. "Take Harry and run,"
And then, as she ran up the stairs, desperate to shield Harry, and hoping that James would manage to hold off Voldemort, her second worst memory was created. The strong, caring figure of James fell before her eyes, breaking her heart in a matter of moments, losing all hope.
Seconds before her sacrificial death was when her worst memory changed, it was when the love of her life fell, and it was when, really, all hope was lost…
