Reveletions: Part:2:
Lily's perspective:
Lily lay awoke on her bed. Her mind full of crazy thoughts. She wanted to scream with anger and agony. Hatred boiling in her, for Voldemort, for his every follower. First, he had taken her mother and now going to take her happiness, her life.
Light was filling the room and she hadn't slept the whole night.
'why me?' she thought.
'What if I become a monster?'
'What if I couldn't control it?'
She tried to get rid of these thoughts but couldn't. She had been lying awake for the whole night thinking about that. She stood up and drew her bed's curtains.
'Talk to Dumbledore.' a part of her said.
She went to the dormitory bathroom and dressed up. 'He would be asleep.' she thought. 'Damn'
She walked into the common room which was empty. She stood there staring out of the window. The sun was rising, a beautiful sight it was.
"Lily." someone called from behind.
She turned to find Harry standing on the stairs, Ron standing behind him, parchments clutched in their hands.
"HI, what are you doing here? " she asked them.
"We were just going to the Owlery, to send letters." Harry said, raising the letter in it his hand.
"Okay." she said. It reminded her that she had to write letters too, one to his Godfather and one to Cissy.
"You wanna come." he asked her.
"Okay, Let's go." she replied.
They all walked out of the common room and then headed towards the owlery.
"Lily, you stay only with your father?" Harry asked.
"No. My father works for the magical congress USA. He comes here only for Christmas or Easter. " she told them.
"And Cissy, she is not your real sister, is she?" he asked.
"Yeah... she works for my father, his assistant, you could say. She is just like a sister to me. Why are you asking?." she told them.
We just wanted to know you." Ron said." to befriends with you." She got shocked when he said that, she was never good at making friends. Was too straight to make friends.
"Don't you have any friends?" Harry asked.
"No i don't have. I am too bossy for them." she told them.
"No you're not." he said in an assuring tone.
"What about your other family members." Harry asked."
"There is one , a friend of my father, my God father, Remus."
"You said Remus?" Harry asked surprised.
"Yes.. you know him? she asked.
"No, we don't." Ron said slightly punching at Harry's back.
"Any aunts and uncles?" they asked.
"Ummm... it its just," she said uncomfortably," My family is American by origin, one of the oldest and wealthiest. They came to Britain only a century ago. My mother and father graduated from Hogwarts and joined the fight against Voldemort, rejecting the offer from Voldemort of joining him. Most members of my family, joined after my father joined, because he was the Lord and everyone had to obey and follow him. Most of them were killed including my Mother. So that's that," she sighed," the left ones went back to USA and my father too. "
"So why do you live here?" Ronald asked.
"I don't know' its just my father wanted to send me to Hogwarts so i came." she said, now tired of thier interrogation. " I don't know why you guys are asking me but I have to go. Bye." she said as she quickly walked out of the owlery.
She headed straight towards Dumbledore's office, wishing that he would be there.
She gave the password and quickly went in the office. To her relief, Dumbledore was there, standing near the window, his pheonix on his hand.
"I was not expecting you that soon." he said smiling.
"I am here to ask questions" she said, tiredly.
"Curiosity is a good thing, Lily." he told her. "Ask anything you want."
She took a deep breath. And started to arrange the questions in her mind, slowly.
"What will happen if I don't unseal that thing?"
"Your magic will fade, eventually. It would start feeding on your magic, if you don't use it." he told her, directly.
"If i don't use it?" she scowled.
"If you unseal it, you can use its magic for your good. It might be dark magic but it can help." he told her, "Look Lily, there are no studies on it. These are my deductions. There is no one who could kill it, except Voldemort, or I reckon, you could destroy it too. That is the reason we told you, so you could get prepared, as the circumstances ,nowadays, are not much favourable." he said.
"Do you think he'll come back?"
"Yes," he said," I fear so. And when the time comes, you ought to be prepared, Lily."
"It would do anything to bring him back to power? But in this case "
"Because it is sealed in you, even if we unseal it within you. It could do nothing unless you yourself unleash it." Dumbledore interuptted.
"How can I kill it?" she asked.
"I am afraid, I don't know how to. But we'll find out once, we unseal it."
"What if I never unleash it?" she asked.
"If Voldemort gets killed, it would ultimately be released, of what I have studied."
She bit her lip, "Its all your fault." she said, "you must not have taken her."
"Lily, in such times, no one knows what to do. But I'd admit that it was my fault." he said, patting his pheonix, "but now we cannot change it, can we."
"Then unseal it, now."
He looked surprised at the sudden change. He put his pheonix on the stand. "Are you sure?" he said, "it may hurt."
"I would have to eventually face it. Why not now?" she said.
"Come to me on Sunday at 9:00 a.m. " he said.
"Okay." she said and left. She went to the Great hall for Breakfast.
She was just eating her toast when Oliver wood , the captain of Quidditch team , joined her.
"We are going to start tryouts for a seeker." he told her, " on Sunday evening."
"Okay," she replied," I'll be there" she told him. All the team members were required during tryout so she would have to go.
"Why don't you consider that offer?" he asked.
"Which offer?" she asked.
"The offer of you becoming a seeker." he said, his voice a bit pleading now.
"Oliver, I have already told you. I am born to be a chaser not a seeker."
"You are really good at it. Remember when you played seeker in place of Robinston. You caught the snitch in no time." he said.
"Yes, I remember. " she said, and took a mouthful of bacon.
"SO, please. We need to win." he said, " we can take Alicia in as a chaser. She is not that good, but those three can do it. And you as a seeker and we could make the best team of the whole century."
"Oliver, You are so annoying." she said. Oliver scowled." Okay I'd do it, but after we take the tryouts. And if we don't find someone good." she said.
"Really, that's the perfect plan. But we are not going to find anyone. Remember the tryouts we held during the last year." he said a wide grin on his face.
"Everyone was an idiot." she said, now laughing as she remembered it. One had fallen of a broom and the other couldn't even fly properly.
" Okay, so it is done. I'll tell McGonagall once the tryouts are over." Oliver said, as he stood up." Enjoy your breakfast."
She sighed. He was good at making people accept what he wants.
"Then we got a new seeker?" One of the twins announced, as they approached her.
"Nothing could stay secret from these two." she mumbled.
They sat in front of her. "Yes" she replied.
"Ohh great." Fred said. "Let's announce it George."
"No, no" she said, trying to get hold of George who was going to stand on the bench.
"LISTEN, LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, WE ARE TO HEREBY NOTIFY YOU THAT THIS YEAR GRIFFINDOR WOULD BE STANDING AS THE VICTORY HOLDER IN BOTH THE QUIDDITCH AND HOUSE CHAMPIONSHIP. SO RAISE YOUR GLASSES FOR GRIFFINDOR WHO IS GOING TO MAKE YOUR HEAD SPIN ESPECIALLY THAT OF SLYTHERIN"
They hadn't complete thier sentence when the whole Griffindors including some Ravenclaws and Hufflepuff erupted into cheers, and those on Slytherin table started booing.
"And how do you know that, Weasely." one from the Slytherins said.
"Looks like they have started making PROPHECIES." Zean Lestrange said.
"SAYS WHO! LOOK FRED ! ZEANIE MEANIE THE ONE WHO FELL OFF HIS BROOM AND LANDED ON HIS BUTT ...WHEN HE PLAYED AGAINST OUR LADY SEEKER." George said.
"Shut it you two." she mumbled under her breath.
Roars of laughter and Zean's face was fuming red like a tomato.
"LOOKS LIKE HIS HEAD IS REPLACED BY A RED CHILLI ." Fred said, which made her laugh too.
"SO SLYTHERINS EAT YOUR WHEATIES AND CALL YOUR MOMMY'S FOR THE GREATEST DEFEAT." George said.
"DON'T WORRY IF YOU DON'T GET THE TROPHY WE WILL STILL SEND YOU TOILET SEATS."
Roars of laughter echoed in the Great hall and the Slytherins were proceeding towards their table. Lily grabbed those two from their collars and quickly left the Great Hall.
"Why do you guys do such things?" she asked after they had escaped the Great Hall. "You two are looking for trouble like it's your mum."
"You should not have pulled us out." George said.
"We would have told them," said Fred, but she interrupted," You guys are such Idiots." She said and left.
She quickly went to her dormitory, found her bag and headed towards the Dungeons as the first class was of double Potions. She was the first one to enter the class, and she only found a very angry Professor Snape there.
"Good Morning Professor," she said as she entered. She took a seat at the first bench.
"Mr. Lestrange with some other Slytherins came to me a few moments ago." he said. Of course, that bastard, would have ran to his head of house.
"he told me that the Weasely twins have insulted the Slytherin house and according to them you are the one who initiated them to do so."
She snorted. " Professor, with due respect I was just having my Breakfast there. And then, we had a little conversation about Our Quidditch team. And then they just started all that. But if you consider me guilty, then I'd accept the punishment." she replied, respectfully.
"Ms. Lily I except great things for you but the type of Company you keep is not good." He said, in the usual Snape like tone.
" Professor I can't change my Company, I think it's much better than that of Slytherins." she just told him.
He seemed angry but didn't express it instead said. Just walked out of the classroom.
Students were now coming in the class. It was with Hufflepuff.
They just had to follow the instructions written on the board.
She was joined by another Griffindor, Stella.
"Hi, Lily." she said as she joined her.
She was preparing her ingredients, when Snape came near their table and started commenting on Stella's potion.
"Ms. Jade." he said, " their are instructions written clearly on the board and you still haven't did it well. 10 points from Griffindor."
"But it is totally fine." Lily said in an accusing tone.
"It seems like you're more a teacher than me." he said, " 5 points from Griffindor for speaking rudely in front of a teacher."
She just lowered her head at this and continued making her potion.
She walked out of the Potions class as quickly as she could, still angry at Snape's injustice. Maybe everyone had been right about him. Maybe he was really a git. She shook her head, she should not think about a teacher like that.
"Lily," Stella called from behind as she approached her, books clutched in her hands. "Sorry, you didn't have to do it, really."
"No it's okay he was being unfair." she replied .
"He is a slimy git," Stella said, disgustingly.
"Don't call him that," she said.
She made her way to the Great Hall for lunch. And left it as quickly as possible. She went to the grounds to have some fresh air.
"Snape is really not fair,"
She turned to find Cedric Diggory standing behind him.
"Cedric," she said, " yeah, he is not fair, but what can we do. He is a teacher and a really good one."
"Yeah." he said, "Once he cleared my whole cauldron when my potion was not up to the mark. And took 20 points."
She laughed, "hmmm.. " she said.
"By the way, how's your Quidditch practice going?" he asked.
"We haven't even started it yet." she said.
"With Wood as the captain I thought he would have started by now." he said.
"Yeah he is such a Quidditch fan. He wants to break the Slytherin's winning streak this year. Tryouts on weekend."
"I wish someone of us do so. I am dreading to do that. They are becoming unbearable." he said, "Fred and George did quite a thing today."
"Yeah they are idiots." she said. They talked a bit more and then headed to their respective classes. She had Care of Magical Creatures next. After that she headed to the Library to complete her remaining essay of Transfugation.
There she was completing her essay when she heard voices of Harry and Hermione. They were behind the other bookshelf and seemed to be arguing.
"I haven't got a clue of what happened or what might happen next." Hermione was saying.
"We should ask Lily." Harry said
"I already told you that we can't. It's too dangerous." Hermione said. She sounded angry now.
"Hermione but she might know. Can't you see it's been two days and Dumbledore has called him two times in his office. She is different from others." Harry was saying in hushed voice.
What do they want to do with me?
"Ahmm..." she gave them the gesture that she was present their too. So they don't spill all of their secrets. She packed her things, and stood up to leave. "You must be careful, because walls have ears too." she said.
"Lily, we want to talk to you." Harry said.
"About what?" she asked.
"Not here, maybe in the grounds tomorrow morning at five. " he said.
"Okay, I'll be there. ." she said, avoiding more questions and left.
