Godric's Hollow

First topic message reminder :

I was surprised no one started this topic yet, maybe because JK hasn't revealed much about it, but then again she hasn't said much about Azkaban either, so...here goes.

******************************

Harry walked up the lonely road that led to his parents gravesites. He had left the others a little up the road on the pretense that he wanted to be alone. That was for the most part true, but a small part of him really wanted Ginny with him, and the farther away from them he got, the bigger that part of him became. He was just about to turn around to go get her when he saw the entrance to the cemetary. Within a minute he was stepping through the gate and searching for his parents' grave. Walking along row after row it took him around ten minutes to find them, and when he did he fell to his knees and broke down and cried.

He had been crying for nearly fifteen minutes when he heard the gate open and someone walking towards him. He looked up through blurry eyes at what was unmistakably Ginny. He watched her approach and sit next to him all the while still silently crying. She took him in her arms and held him as his grief grabbed ahold of him again. They sat there like that for another twenty minutes at the end of which Ginny was also silently crying. Crying for Harry's loss of his parent's, but also for Harry. She hated to see him upset, but she also knew he needed this. There was nothing else she could do for him at the moment.

Harry looked up at Ginny and saw the tears that were flowing out of her eyes. He wasn't surprised to see Ginny crying with him; that was the kind of person she was. He motioned for her to get up with him and after silently conjuring a boquet of flowers that he laid on the space between his parents grave, they began to make their way back to Ron and Hermione. They found them at the entrance to the graveyard. Ron saw the tear streaks on Harry's face and politely turned his head to give Harry a chance to clean himself up if he wanted to. Harry was thankful Ron did this and was about to mutter a cleaning charm on himself when Hermione grabbed him in a rather tight hug. She held onto him for a bit longer than he thought was necessary, but he didn't say anything to her about it. When she let go of him, he turned his wand to his face and muttered "Scourgify". Ron turned back to Harry when he was done and put his hand on his shoulder.

"Where to, next, Harry?"

"I think we should head to my parent's place next. I want to see whats left of it."

Ginny grabbed his hand and they turned towards the road and began walking.

Tiger-Emmalynn watched as the three figures began to scour the graveyard for who knows what. She also saw a cheeta step out from behind a bush.

On a whim, she decided to get closer. Going fast, tiger-Emmalynn pounced to another tombstone, closer to Alice; though Emmalynn had no idea that is was Alice. She strained her sensitive ears to pick up any conversations.

Jamie steadied himself ready for the blow.
He waited to be pounced on...
Its a nice day for a white wedding
he always seemed to get songs into his head befor he got really hurt.

((Who's pouncing on you?))

Tiger-Emmalynn crouched as low as possible behind another tombstone, watchin and listening to the unsuspecting people.

((you lol you said you started to run))

Jamie waited.. and opened one eye to see where the tiger was... he couldn't see her

((awch!))

jamies cheeta stood there now waiting for someone to spot him

Emmalynn could have sworn she saw the dementor move toward her just a bit, but figured she was just imagining things... then something clicked in her mind as she walked a few steps closer to the creature; she still could feel happiness!

"Who are you?" she asked the 'dementor', "And why don't I feel sad around you?"

Ja ie watched the goings on trying not to grolw at the people it was a hard task when they had such bad ora's

Emmalynn's eyes widened a bit before she discretly winked at Alice. She leaned forward to whisper to Alice.

"If you see a grave with 'Malfoy' on it, tell me..." she said before turning around and transforming intoo her snow tiger form once again. She prowled around a few graves, searching.

Emmalynn, who was still in hearing distance, stopped dead in her tracks. If they ran out of time, they'd get caught... She ran to a house a few blocks away that Sev had told her about. He said that she should go there for emergencies; that there were potions he had put into storage and food to last a few months.

When she arrived at the shack, she transformed back to a human and walked in. "My name is Emmalynn..." she mumbled into the darkness. A few metallic clicks could be heard and she knew it was safe. She quickly retrieved three bottles of Polyjuice Potion and ran out, grabbing a cloth bag that she forund and tying it around her neck. Once outside, she turned into her snow tiger and sprinted back to the graveyard. She slowly approached the three disguised people and nudged the one she knew to be Alice.

Chris took the potion and added the air to it and drank it.

Emmalynn, oblivious to the new Death Eater in the area, transformed back into her human form and pulled a pen with everlasting ink out of her pocket. SHe leaned over the plaque remembering Lily and James and what happened the night they died and wrote in her most elegent cursive:
Emmalynn leaned back and admired her work. Now she only had one thing left to do... Pay a visit to Lily Potter's grave. As she made her way back to the graveyard, she sensed another presence. A Death Eater. Quickly, Emmalynn ran to the edge of the graveyard to watch for danger.

Chris saw what Oddie was pointing at, "Oh no, another Death Eater. Should I attack him or what?"

Chris watched as Oddie walked towards the Death Eater and new what she meant. Chris started to walk with her.

"Ok." Chris said. He kept looking atr Stephy showing that he was nervous.

"Oh, yeah." Chris said, "Well I guess I'm safe then."

Chris turned around to see the others. He started to follow the Death Eater to Zelda's grave, he hadn't been there since her funeral.

"Ok." Chris answered the Death Eater as they made their way to the gravesite. He really didn't want to be here again but he had to be.

Emmalynn decided to continue with her business. The Death Eaters were preoccupied and she wasn't doing anything wrong.

She made her way to the graves of Lily and James Potter. Kneeling in front of Lily's, Emmalynn took a letter out of her cloak. She opened it and read it aloud in a whisper.

"'Lily dearest, I know I've hurt you, and I know you've moved on, but I want to explain to you what I really feel. Lily, you are the world to me. You are the reason I wake up in the morning. The reason I can walk through the halls of Hogwarts with my head held up. When I called you that awful name, I wanted to die. I'd promised myself to never hurt you, on pain of death. But I was selfish. I couldn't kill myself... I wanted to keep seeing you, even if you hated me. Even if you were wrapped around Potter, I couldn't take my life.

Selfish or not, I never wanted to say goodbye to you. I love you, Lily. I always have and I always will. Nothing, not even Potter can change that. I will cherish my memories of our time together and hope for your forgiveness for what I've done to you. I wish you happiness, my love, for even if you're with Potter, I know you deserve the best.

My love for you will never fade, Lily. I love you.
-Severus," Emmalynn finished with tears in her eyes. She knew this was a terrible time, surrounded by Death Eaters, but she had to do it. It was his final wish...
