I am not blond, nor have I written any books. Please take this as my stating that I do not own Harry Potter.
I do hope that you enjoy my fan fiction.
The next week was a blur, as her parents prepared for the funeral. Petunia had gone to the party with about seven different kids from the neighborhood, so lots of people were mourning. Lily had checked; it had been a Death Eater raid. No one was sure why, except that the Death Eaters liked to kill muggles. The funeral was depressing; she had written Sev about Petunia's death. Even though they were no longer friends it still hurt that he hadn't come.
Lily had reread all the books that Hermione had sent. It occurred to her that she wanted to make sure that she hadn't missed anything. After rereading the books she realized that all the items in the Room of Requirements had been destroyed, so Hermione would only know about the items that she had personally seen, or later been told about.
She started casting spells on all the items she was selling, and then on all the items she was keeping. She found a few items that would need to either be disenchanted or destroyed. The trunk had several items like that. Last she found that the pensive was a Horcrux.
She realized that it was a perfect Horcrux. If she hadn't of been scared about being late she would have immediately played a memory. She assumed that the memories were real, so that the person would have a good reason to use the pensive until the Horcrux could possess them. She went back to her idea on destroying Horcrux.
She finally cast a spell she created on the pensive Horcrux; her map now showed that it was one of two. She finally managed to find the other one. It was a very pretty bracelet sitting on a table in an abandoned building. She carefully took it, and flew home.
She was finally on the train to Hogwarts; her parents had spent quite a lot of time telling her to be careful. She was glad to be away. She had a whole notebook of new pranks to play, and thought that she might have a way to get rid of the multiple Horcrux. But to do that she needed someplace very private to cast some spells. She had made plans to use the Basilisk Chamber, since it should be well below the wards.
It seems that Alice and Frank had spent a lot of time writing to each other and were now dating. Lily was very happy for them.
Lily was in the bathroom changing when she cast a spell upon herself. She then made it a point to walk the length on the train saying hello to people she was friendly with. She was using a version of the Virus Spell, and wanted it to quickly take effect. She even stopped by and spoke to James.
They had come back on a Thursday, and had just one full day of classes that week. She thought that it was actually good for the first years, because it gave them more time to learn their way around.
Saturday morning Lily made it to breakfast very early, after eating she made her way to the fourth floor girls bathroom. Where she took out what looked to be a motorcycle helmet. She doubted that she needed it yet but was scared enough to do the prudent action.
The helmet was a full face one, and she had covered the plastic that protected your eyes with metal. She had then enchanted the helmet with a sonar spell. Since she couldn't see the Basilisk she thought that she would be safer. It also had hearing, comfort, and bubble head charms. She placed it on.
She hissed at the tap and when the sink opened she asked for stairs. She proceeded down to the bottom. She easily found the door and after stopping herself from panicking she checked her items and went through. She made her way to the giant head and spoke the words from the novel. The mouth opened and she could hear the Basilisk ask who was there.
She opened a large jar and released a rooster, who started immediately to crow. She repeated the action with six more roosters. Even with seven roosters it took a few moments for it to die. She carefully listened for more, but didn't hear anything. She finally cast the spell to allow the roosters to shut up. She used a rooster to check to see if the Basilisk's eyes would still harm her. When the rooster was fine she eventually took off her helmet.
She harvested the entire Basilisk; many of its parts were priceless for potion use. She was very glad that she had the trunk, since she needed the extra space. Having the knowledge on how to keep things from going bad was also invaluable. She used the trunk to shower and made it up just in time for dinner.
She cast a spell upon herself before dinner that night. The spell she had attached to the Virus Spell would show a light to anyone with certain types of dark magic on their person, but only to the person with the other spell going. She made a list of everyone who glowed.
She almost had to vomit when she noticed that Severus Snape, now Prince, was one of them. She supposed that it was a way for him to prove that he believed in the pureblood bigoted cause. She was surprised that they gave fifteen year olds the Dark Mark. He was now an enemy, perhaps even one of the people who had killed Petunia.
Using one of the oldest laws of magic, sympathy, she cast her spell. As happens to part so shall happen to the other parts. The circle encompassed an area with a smaller circle attached holding a bracelet. The circle was composed of runes, arithrmancy, arcane symbols, and blood magic. Lily completed it and passed out. She made it back to the dorm just in time to change and go to breakfast.
One week later she cast the spell again, except instead of a bracelet the small circle contained the Diadem of Ravenclaw. She cast many protective charms around both magics; it wouldn't do to cast all this magic and have a rat mess it up.
Weeks passed, both groups had been playing pranks; she could tell that the staff was getting tired of it. Well all of the staff except Dumbledore who seemed to find the pranks amusing.
She made her way down to the Chamber of Secrets to check on her spells. They were very powerful, but would still take a while to finish. She had tied them into the magic of the castle so that all the casting the students do would make them stronger. In fact they were working faster than she had originally anticipated.
She had been slowly exploring the Chamber; she couldn't imagine making this giant of a space just for a Basilisk. It must be guarding something. She finally found the first room, it was full of books. She cast spells to make sure that the room and items were safe and then went to look. She copied all the books and vowed to come back the first chance she got.
It was harder to sneak away this year. She had a lot of studying for OWLs and keeping up with her pranks, also everyone was aware that she was no longer friends with Mr. Prince, so expected her to be around more.
Lily spent lots of time learning every combat spell she could. She was well aware that they were at war, no matter what Dumbledore and the Ministry said. The Room of Requirements helped with the practice of them.
A few weeks before Christmas, she cast a spell on an unsuspecting Death Eater. It now was only a matter of time. Of course the hard part would be killing Voldemort himself. She hoped that by thinning out his ranks of Death Eaters that someone might get in a lucky shot, she had no illusions that she was good enough to kill him. She also carefully cast a spell on a hallway that Dumbledore used to leave his office. It would only affect anyone over the age of one hundred, so it would only affect the Headmaster. Now she would wait.
She did find herself getting closer to James and his friends. They were starting to grow up, and James seemed to be trying to apply himself. The potion professor had taken over making Wolf's Bane for Remus, so that did free up a bit of her time. One day she realized that they had finally finished their animage transformations because they were whispering about it.
The next full moon she used a spell to allow her to see in the dark and flew out and watched them. It was all she could do not to kill Peter. He was both a traitor and a rat. Her form wanted to eat the rat and her other parts wanted to get rid of the traitor.
