At first, it seemed the black stallion with stars in its mane and tail, and the white mare, with a red mane and tail clouds in its mane and tail, were unicorns, but as they stepped further into the dimly lit circle, Harry caught a glimpse of folded wings on each horse, confirming that they were like Anna, thestral-unicorns.
The rider on the black stallion wore a black cloak that covered his whole body except for his hands, making him almost invisible against the stallion.
The other rider was a woman, her black cloak standing out against her white and silver, timber wolf dress.
The man in the black cloak checked that they were alone, and then both took off their cloaks. (Not clothes eww.)
Harry and his friends had to bite their tongues to stop from giving themselves away by gasping. Snape was a surprise; for once he didn't have black robes on, but handsome silver robes that had timber wolf designs that made it look festive.
Lilly had a dress that looked similar but with more white. They joined hands and started to talk about the past. After a half hour they started to dance, as beautiful music seemed to float from the lanterns lighting the circle.
Lilly and Snape were perfect dance partners. As Harry listened, the song changed from a slow melody to a slightly livelier tune.
You're in a dark corridor,
Shadows everywhere,
And then you're lost,
Finally you see a black door,
But hesitate because of its color,
There, a white door next to it,
And that one seems right,
But inside, you find a scary monster that nearly kills you with fright,
You open the black door, to a beautiful ballroom,
And the next one the same,
You follow the black doors,
Ignore the white doors, and finally you're home,
So don't always reject black,
Because black can be white in disguise,
And don't think that black is always bad,
For sometimes white is the one that is bad
Lilly and Snape danced beautifully, as a song called "Shooting Star"
started, Lilly and Snape jumped onto their thestral-unicorns holding hands, and jumped on each other's horses as they flew high into the night air.
Looping and twisting, Harry and his friends found themselves mesmerized by the dance. Then a song called "Till the World Ends" started.
Fred and George wanted to explode some decoy detonators, but their thestral-unicorns took them by their shirts and hid them, while Harry and Hermione scolded them. "They haven't seen each other in years." Hermione hissed. "This is a chance for them to bond after having a fight." added Harry, knowing what had happened in front of the Fat Lady portrait. Then the music changed again. Harry had heard this song before. It had depressing lyrics that seemed to describe his life at the Dursleys. But this time the lyrics had been changed to a happier tune.
My head against the windowpane,
A happy tear for every drop of rain,
I am so happy and joyous,
Now that my love is back with me,
I am so happy and joyous,
My happiest dream has finally come true,
My face against the windowpane,
A happy tear for every for every drop of rain,
I never remember being so happy in my life, my life,
Joyous laughter a present past a silent scream to shatter my sadness,
I have to go its time for me to fly,
I am so happy and joyous,
Now that my love is back with me,
My happiest dream has finally come true,
And if suddenly I disappeared,
They will worry for me always,
Blooming flowers in my hand,
I'm reappearing from where I stand,
This proves that love will always be the cure,
I am so happy and joyous,
Now that my love is back with me,
I am so happy and joyous,
My happiest dream has come true,
As the song finished, Lilly and Snape fell into each other's arms. "I love you." Said Lilly; "I love you too." Replied Snape in a comforting tone. Their horses nudged them towards the group's hiding place, probably knowing who was there. "Cloud-" Lilly started, "Star-" Snape said at the same time, using their undercover muggle names. Then they looked at each other, had a moment of full understanding, and turned to the hiding place. "How much did you see?!" they asked at the same time.
Harry: You have to say a disclaimer or elseā¦
Me: is that a threat? My mom will hear of it if it is!
Harry: No it's an empty threat. And you sound like Draco Malfoy "My father will hear of this!
Me: Ok. You need to be carful with your words Harry Potter. And I do not! I don't own the song So Alone by Anna blue or any of the other songs that Lilly and Snape danced to.
Ginny: Finally.
Me: (Has a mini heart attack) When did you get here?! I'm supposed to be the dimension keeper!
Ginny: There was a loophole.
Me: WHAT LOOPHOLE (FREAKING OUT)
Ginny: You forgot to completely close the dimension door.
Me: AHHH! Closes door. There!
