Chapter 30

Chapter 30

The school of course was talking about nothing else then Lily’s outburst to the substitute teacher in potions class. Most were saying now that she had blasted the teacher through the door to leave. Lily thought this was a great idea and had wished she did blast him as the boys had done. Others were of course coming up to her and asking for a word for word account of the incident. Others were also talking about what James, Remus and Sirius had done to the teacher and how he had left the school promising to never return.

“It was nothing really.” Lily said as she walked through the hallways to her next class.

Lily turned to see the owner of the hand on her shoulder that appeared suddenly.

“Hello, Sev.”

Severus said nothing to her; after a quick squeeze of her shoulder he removed his hand as though he was only trying to get past her and on his way to his next class.

Lily slowed down looking at his back. “You really do hate me now don’t you Sev?”

Lily raised her head as she walked through the corridor to her Charms class, where Flitwick was talking to James and Sirius.

“Really boys throwing a hex on someone in the halls, it’s really wrong of you. I can’t believe what you did to that boy.”

Lily groaned to herself, she was so wishing they would finally grow up.

Lily turned to see Snape was sitting in the back of the room; he was talking to Mulciber and completely ignoring the fact she was sitting there looking at him.

“Whacha looking at Mudblood?” Mulciber sneered at her, just loud enough for Lily to hear but not Flitwick.

“I’m just wondering how you manage to get this far in school, since you haven’t enough brains to walk and talk at the same time.” Lily glared at him. Lily was hurt to see Snape not saying anything but continuing looking down at his desktop.

“Just wait until I see you in the halls, you won’t be laughing then.” Mulciber growled at her.

“Yeah I’m scared; you’re so powerful that you can’t even do the simplest charm.”

Lily smiled as she noticed the smirk playing around Snape’s lips as he looks up for a second, although it could have been her imagination.

“I don’t like that look, Mudblood, make sure you watch it out there, the first to die are always Mudbloods.” The sneering voice was making Lily’s blood boil.

Snape glanced at his friend, but said nothing. Lily was hoping he would.

“If I do die I’ll be sure to haunt you and make your pathetic life so miserable you’ll curse yourself to get away.” Lily turned around when a loud crack was heard and Lily was knocked from her seat, a large lump on her head.

“LILY!” James yelled as he turned to see what was happening, watching as Lily fell onto the floor. Professor Flitwick had fallen surprised from his piles of books. No one had seemed to notice that Professor Flitwick had fallen too.

James was there in a moment holding Lily up to see how she was. Lily was out cold.

James glared over to where Snape was sitting stone face, and his friend was snickering behind his hands.

“Oh dear; oh dear,” Flitwick had run over to look his face shocked with fear.

“Please Potter take her to the hospital wing.”

“Yes sir.” James lifted Lily up tenderly in his arms holding her against him. James ran to the door with Lupin and Sirius who opened it up for him. James ran as fast as he could to the hospital wing. Sirius and Lupin were standing at the door undecided if they should go help or hex Snape and Mulciber. Professor Flitwick took away the decision for them.
