     Lily was very excited as she and Sev made their way pushing their supplies in a trolley at Kings Cross Station. Muggles were everywhere and she wondered how to get to Platform 9 3/4. She knew it was a thing as her brother had mentioned it to her briefly before Khamûl had stormed in and announced that the Witch King and I had to prepare dinner.

     Speaking of Khamûl, I do not see him right now, which worries me. It usually means my father is plotting to kill me. I check my pocket to make sure my willow wand is there. It is.

     All good. I thought.

     Is it? Is that good? Do you actually belong there? At Hogwarts? Who knows if Mudbloods are welcome anyway? How do you know you can trust Snivellus?

     It was a voice that sounded like fingers-being-scratched-on-a-chalkboard with a deep growl: Sauron.

     Lily ignored her father and she continued following Sev to the platform.

     Soon, they reached a wall with the number 9 on the left side and 10 on the right side.

     "You have to run through the wall," Snape told me and took Lily's hand, "do you want to do it together?"

     "OOOO! HURRY UP, LOVEBIRDS!" A loud, rude voice hollered and everyone turned to see James Potter with Sirius Black, Remus Lupin and Peter Pettigrew.

     Startled, I let go.

     Everyone laughed at us.

"Shut it, Potter!" Lily snapped at him and everyone let out oooooo's and James flushed.

"Let's go," Sev turned to her after casting James a loathing look.

     He took Lily's hand again (another round of ooooooo's came up) and we ran through the wall together. She watched, horrified, as they ran towards it excepting bricks to come smashing into her face, but suddenly she felt  a different kind of air, full of magic. Lily saw people wearing wizard robes, hats and they are carried spell books and some carried brooms. Lily also saw the colours red and yellow, green and silver, yellow and black and blue and white. Gryffindor, Slytherin, Hufflepuff and Ravenclaw. She hoped she was in the same house with Severus.

     "C'mon," Sev nudged her towards the train, "we better find some seats. Can you take my luggage for a sec and get it on board?"

     "Yeah, no problem," Lily replied taking his luggage and handed both their bags to the conductor who nodded firmly.

     She turned around to find Sev and she saw him with a tall blonde-haired man with cruel grey eyes. His face was hostile as he stared at Lily.

     Did I do anything wrong? She wondered.

     Meanwhile, Severus was wondering the exact same thing: Did I do something wrong? Should I introduce her to Lucius? He probably won't like her; she's a Mudblood.

     Severus, then mentally slapped himself, SHUT UP, SEVERUS! Don't call her that! She probably doesn't even know what a Mudbl- er, Muggle Born is....

     "Well, Severus?" Lucius fixed his grey eyes on Lily, "intrigue me on who this... witch is."

     "Her name's Lily, her father's a wizard and I think her mother is too!" Severus nearly shouted in a panicked way and both Lucius and Lily looked at him funny.

     Well, he has the facts right... But I don't think Lucius will fall for it... Whoever this guy is... Lily thought.

     "Well then," Lucius's piercing grey eyes turned on Severus, "we'll find out, won't we?"

     "Let's go," Sev said hastily and after Lily glanced at Lucius suspiciously she followed Sev on the train and sat in a random compartment.

     "I'm going to change into Hogwarts robes," Lily told Severus and whoever else was in the compartment. Severus nodded and the other boys did not even acknowledge her.

     She left and headed for the washroom when a metallic hand grabbed her shoulder. She whirled around to see herself face to face with Sauron.

     Involuntarily, Lily let out a shriek and Sauron glared at her fiercely. He ignited a double-bladed red lightsaber and cut a circle down and they fell below the train. The family members walked swiftly, making sure they were below the hole.

     "So, you actually came to do your own dirty work, hmm?" I glared at my father savagely bluntly referencing Khamûl.

     Sauron dismissed my comment with a wave of his hand, "you should stay away from Snivellus. He'll cause you much pain in the future."

     I regarded him coldly, "why do you care?"

     Sauron stared at me and his one yellow-orange eye outlined with red burns glared at me. He snapped his fingers and the Witch King and Khamûl appeared behind me.

     Apparition, I thought.

     That's right. You've grown stronger. Sauron's voice sliced through me without speaking, Quite a shame that you have chosen to join the side with the losing side. Alright, then, I have come with merely a warning. Stay away from James Potter and Severus Snape and you can live peacefully. Stay close with them on purpose and you shall see the power of the dark side!

     And how will you tempt me? You can't kill me; I'm immortal! I shot back through me telepath ability.

     Of course... But they CAN die.... Sauron laughed out loud maliciously and with another snap of his fingers I sat in the compartment again with robes on. I looked out the window and saw the hole was no longer there.

     "So, what house do you want to be in?" Severus asked me his eyes glinting in excitement and I wondered why, but I did not ask him.

     "Um..." I pretended to act stupid.

     "You should be in Slytherin!" Severus seemed overexcited and I was amazed; I had never seen him like this, but it made me happy.

     "Slytherin?" A disgusted reply came from one of the boys.

     Severus and I turned to see James Potter and Sirius Black. I reached for my willow wand when suddenly I felt dizzy and I was aware of Severus Snape, James Potter and Sirius Black crouching over me in concern.

     Snow was everywhere. A black-cloaked figure rose in front me. A battle-cry for war came and I saw Lightsabers cutting through people: they were Jedi and Sith. I recognized many as follows: Obi-Wan Kenobi, Yoda, Mace Windu, Asajj Ventress, Darth Revan, Darth Sidious, Darth Vader, Kylo Ren, Snoke and many more.

     "The dark side can destroy you all!" I recognized my father's voice radiating over the cold planet and I realized it was Hogwarts.

     "Where is the one destined to save us?!" The helpless Jedi and Sith cried out and to my horror, I saw ships of the Republic and Separatists crashing down and destroying Hogwarts, "WHY HAS SHE NOT COME?!"

     I woke suddenly, my head with beads of sweat on it. Sev, Potter and Black looked down at me concerned.

     "-pretty sure she's okay, Snivelly, chill," Potter was saying and I realized he was insulting Severus.

     "HEY!" I yelled angrily and before anyone could react I punched Potter in the nose and his glasses clattered to the ground, "come on, Sev, let's go!"

     I scrambled to my feet, took Sev's hand and stormed off into a different compartment. To my dismay, it was with Lucius and three other people; one female and two male.

     "Why hello Severus," Lucius drawled looking bored barely looking at me.

     "I'm Narcissa Black," the blonde pretty woman piped up, "I may be related to Sirius Black, but I doubt he'll follow the Blacks' proud tradition by going into Slytherin."

     "Where do you suppose he'll show up?" A muscular, built boy asked Narcissa.

     "Meh, I don't care. Maybe Gryffindor," Narcissa shrugged carelessly and clearly she wanted to drop the subject.

     "Oh yes, my full name is Lucius Malfoy," Lucius added quickly and Narcissa rolled her eyes.

     I read Lucius's mind, then Narcissa's: I don't trust this new Lily Evans. Isn't Evans a Mudblood name? Maybe she won't go to Slytherin. Oh well, if she doesn't, I don't care... Snape's going to be disappointed though... Oh well, not my problem. Ohhhh, why won't Narcissa look at me fairly like a person? Can't she look happy? I can't wait to ask her out! Maybe she'll go to a Hogsmeade trip with me... Hmm... Evans is looking at me funny.... I'll go check with that in a moment.... I'll have to find that paper my father hid in the Slytherin common room....

     I don't like Lucius. He may be rich, but he acts stupid.... Evans seems alright... I hope she's in Slytherin... My sister would love that so much... Speaking of which, this guy, Snape.... He seems to be acting odd... He told me he likes a girl.... Meh.... Can't be me.... And I wish Lucius didn't like me.... No way am I going to go out with him... Hmm.... Is Evans a Mudblood? I don't think so.... She doesn't look like she's a child of clueless Muggles.... I guess we'll see at the Sorting Ceremony.... Oh.... If only Lucius would stop looking at me like that.... Wait.... Why is Evans looking at me funny? ... Meh.... I don't care.... Probably nothing anyway..... Huh.... Lucius looks suspicious.......

     I took that as my cue to stop and I stopped my concentrating face to an I-don't-care face.

     "So Lils? Think you're going to Slytherin?" Severus asked me looking excited again.

     I thought about that for a moment, Narcissa and Lucius definitely like each other... They both want me in Slytherin... But I don't want to be... My father was in Slytherin... And I don't want to follow his footsteps... And Sever-

     Oh please, they don't care about you! Also, please act hurtful when you are called a Mudblood, Kk?

     What's a Mudblood?

     Someone with Muggle parents. It's a foul name. Sounds like something I should call you.

     Go right ahead. I don't care. I'm not a Mudblood.

     Kk, shut up! Just act hurt when you're called a Mudblood, Kk?

     Okay?

     Great, ciao!

     I suddenly realized everyone in the compartment was staring at me and I quickly blurted, "Slytherin! Yeah, of course."

     Smiles of relief appeared on everyone's faces and I realized they all wanted to be in Slytherin. I looked away until I heard something that sounded interesting.

     "-You-Know-Who'll rise soon. Then we can seize ourselves an opportunity," Malfoy was whispering and I saw Severus shift uncomfortably which seemed odd. In the Leaky Cauldron, he had seemed interested.

     "Let's find an empty compartment, Lils," Sev said hastily, grabbing my hand and leading me into an empty compartment.

     "Who is You-Know-Who?" I asked him and he shivered.

     "His name is Voldemort and he recruits Death Eaters-" Severus began but I nodded for him to hurry. We were almost at Hogwarts, plus I had heard this all in The Leaky Cauldron.

     "Anyway, he's a murderer," Sev whispered, "he doesn't like muggle borns. He kills their families and...." He trailed off and I knew why.

     He thinks I'm Muggle born, I realized, "Come on. Let's go see Hogwarts."

     Severus gave me a large smile and nodded, "Let's go."
