Lily was still in the library, though sleeping, when Madam Pince came to open it. She almost fainted. What was a dead woman doing in her library? This should be reported immediately to professor Dumbledore.
"Albus! I found a Lily Potter lookalike sleeping in the library!" Whispered Irma Pince as she finally arrived at the staff table.
"What? A Lily Potter lookalike in the library?" Dumbledore asked quietly.
"Yes, and she's sleeping."
"Take her to my office and wait with her as I finish my breakfast."
Madam Pince hurried away to wake the strange woman up.
Albus Dumbledore wondered what this meant. Probably not something good. Strange things usually don't.
James was still in the Shrieking Shack. He wasn't sleeping anymore, because the sunlight had woken him up. He was a mess. Was he alive? Was he dead? He didn't know. He decided he couldn't stay there forever, so he pulled himself together and started the journey to Hogwarts.
Madam Pince had woken up Lily Potter.
"Whoa! Who are you?"
"I am the librarian here and I will take you with me to the headmaster."
"Who's the headmaster?"
"You should know that, otherwise you'd never go here."
"Why wouldn't I?"
"Because," Madam Pince said, "He's the only one You-Know-Who ever feared."
Lily didn't understand madam Pince. Did she really think she was a Death Eater? Honestly?
When they finally reached Dumbledore's office, madam Pince whispered the password so quietly that Lily couldn't hear it. They entered the office. Madam Pince knocked on the door.
"Come in! Ahh, madam Pince. And... who must this be? You can't be Lily Potter. She's dead."
"I am Lily Potter. I swear."
"Then we will test you with Veritaserum. That shouldn't be a problem."
"It isn't."
"Madam Pince, will you please get professor Snape and tell him that he needs to come to my office as soon as he can with Veritaserum."
Madam Pince hurried away.
Meanwhile, James Potter appeared under the Whomping Willow. Now he had a little problem. The Willow wasn't calm. It was whomping. It was trying to hit James. Luckily, it couldn't reach him, as he was under the roots. But now he had to get outside of the Whomping Willows range.
(A/N) I already have like 7 more chapters, so I will update 1 a day. I will do this until all ready chapters are up and then I'll probably go back to once a week.
