Lily Riddle: (assumptive voice) but… but you can't! We were always going to go to Hogwarts together! As friends!

Lily:
Cedric II: They don't think we've much hope. Poison that bad…
Lily

Lily: I can read your mind.
Cedric II: Lily. I'd love to talk later, but I can't
Lily: Okay.

Ginny
Harry: "Dear Mum, Dad, and Lily" Where is she? " We wanted to send an owl to say two things: One, Albus has found a friend in none other than Scorpius Malfoy," What the bloody-
Ginny: Harry
Harry "And two, that no, we won't be home for Christmas. Your Son, James" Wait, there's another note! "Dear Lily, Don't let mum and dad read this."
ginny:Well, now we must read it!

P.S. Thank Ron for his gift"???
Ginny & Harry: LILY!!!
Lily
Ginny: What did my dim-wit brother give you?
Harry: for once, I won't argue with you on that.
Lily: Oh, something just like Hermoine's galleons.
Harry: What?
Lily: Fifth Year.
Harry huh?
Lily: D.A.
Ginny: Curse her!
Lily: Do you really want to curse her? It was a good idea.
Ginny: Fair. It kept Dolores away from suspicion. But still! What is it? A fake sickle?
Harry: A honeydukes bar?!?
Lily:
Ginny:
Lily: stuff you'll deny, so what's the point in me saying it?
Harry: Still, tell us! It doesn't mean we'll believe you, but tell us.
Scene II
Loc. owelry
Cedric: Lily is mine! And if she's yours, she'd pick you for the blood ball.

Cedric
Scene III
Loc. great hall
Boy 1: Lily? Will you go to the blood ball with me?
Lily: As much as I'd love to, no, I can't.
Boy 1:Why?
Lily:I… I'm going with…
Cedric:
Boy 1: I guess I owe you an owl.
Lily: Huh? You know what, not going to ask.
Cedric: Good choice. Now, did you want me to do black and green with silver trim, or silver and black with green trim?
Lily: Green trim, please.
Cedric: Alright, I'll send Madam Malkin my order.
Lily:
Boy 1: You made me mad, embarrassed me, and got me in a bet that was RIGGED!?!?!?!?!?!!?
Cedric: Yes and no. You embarrassed yourself, got in the bet, and well maybe I did make you mad, but who do you think you are, the dark lord himself?!? From the way you walk one might think you were, only way worse looking.
Lily: There was a BET?
Boy 1 and Cedric: Yeah. so?
Lily: I'm leaving. I've got places to be. In the meanwhile, work it out! Please?!?
Scene IV
Loc. Bellatrix's office
Bellatrix: Ready, Lily?
Lily: Yes. I've been ready since I was five.
Bellatrix: We've got to leave school, apparate, and get to my sister's home.
Lily: Let's go!
Voldemort: Well, we have a newer face amongst us tonight. My daughter, Lily, is becoming a fully fledged Death Eater tonight!
Voldemort: Come hither, child. You are younger than Draco was when he got his mark. This is impressive! Even I would not have guessed you would join me this early!
Lily: You are shocked, father? I would hope you do not think poorly of me.
Voldemort: No, I thought you would rather be your own person. Not be inferior to your father.
Lily: I'd rather serve the greater good. Maybe one day I'll lead, but I will wait.
Voldemort: Very well.
Astoria: Oh, men.
Voldemort: SILENCE! I COMMAND SILENCE! NEED I CURSE YOU? ALL OF YOU?
Lily: I'm sorry, Father.
Voldemort: Not you, Lily. The imbeciles over there.
Lily: Shall we commence with the meeting?
Voldemort:That was really the whole point of the meeting. Unless you've had any luck with it…
Lily:I have a lead.
Voldemort:Send me an owl. We don't want another Regulus Black situation on our hands.
Lily:Yes, father.
Scene V
Loc. Great Hall
Cedric II: Well, Lily. The robes are ready, just like you needed.
Lily: Great! And I've got something to show you.
Cedric:What?
Lily
Cedric: I wasn't in the slightest.
Act VII
Scene I
Harry: Lily. Lily! LILY!!!
Ginny: Harry, shut it. She'll come around any moment now.
Lily:Dad. I'm up. Relax.
Harry: Oh, lord, Lily. You gave us a fright. What is it this time?
Lily:
Harry: What?!?
Lily: I also got some dress robes.
Ginny: Unimportant. Did you meet him? What was it like?
Lily:Surprisingly kind. He seemed like Dad to James. Kind, almost.
Ginny: Tom Riddle all over.
Harry: To be fair, they are the same person in a manner of speaking.
Ginny: I think I know that. He possessed me, for crying out loud!
Lily: Hello? Current problem, not reminiscing the past please.
Ginny:
Lily: Touché, Mum.
Ginny: So what did my ignorant brother give you?
Lily: Which one? Uncle Bill, Charlie, Fred or Ron? I can't say any of them aren't even a little dull.
Harry: She is being purposely vague, and good at it.
Ginny: Not helping, harry. Ronald, Lily. Husband of Hermione.
Lily: Just a diary. Nothing more, nothing less.
Harry: Albus got a… journal, didn't he?
Lily: How should I know?
Ginny: Lily… just tell us the truth. The whole truth.
Lily: Alright, but it won't be pretty. So it all started with this hissing voice. Then the visions came, and you know all about those. That's it. So far, anyway.
Ginny: Tom Riddle was known for being able to charm and hoodwink people. I was one of them. I don't want you to be one, too.
Lily: Well, there is a slight complication. I can remember his world over here, but not the other way around, Make sense?
Harry: Some. Time to visit Ron and Hermione for Christmas. We'll mention it to our minister when we get there.
Scene II
Loc. Hermione and Ron's living room
Ron: What a pleasant surprise! To what do we…
Ron: Straight to business, I see. Hermione's off. Busy season for the ministry, I suspect.
Harry: WHAT!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?
Ginny: Harry, calm down. She's at the ministry, you say? Very well. Happy Christmas, Ronald.
Ron: What is going on? Lily, how's it…
Lily: Save your breath, Ronald.
Ron: Said that just like your mother. What is going on? New adventure?
Harry: Chamber of Secrets all over again.
Ron: No. No, no, no. But the diary's gone.
Harry: Lily's seen him. In a vision. Are you coming?
Ron:
Scene III
Loc. Telephone box
Woman:
Harry: Ronald Weasley, Harry, Ginny, and Lily Potter on a mission to save the wizarding world.
Woman:Here are your badges. Be sure to present your wands after entering the Ministry. Have a great day!
Hermione:
Harry: Chamber of Secrets. Bulgaria has to wait.
Hermione: I see. Well, Bulgaria will have to wait. So it's open, again?
Harry: No, but same type of situation.
Hermione: People are being Petrified?
Harry: How the women in our family are good at being vague.
Ron: You said it, mate.
Hermione: So what is going on?
Harry: Lily's been having visions of him.
Hermione: No! But he's dead!
Harry: Or so we think. Werewolves going underground, giants crossing seas, dementors going mad. They were all under his allegiance, I'll remind you.
Hermione: Fair. Time to call an Extraordinary General Meeting.
Act VIII
Scene I
Loc. potions
Lily: IT'S TODAY! IT'S TODAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Cedric: I believe I know. BUT I'M EXCITED, TOO! Are robes ready?
Lily: Yeah. Yours?
Cedric: Of course!
Snape: Settle down, settle down. Today I'm testing you on the draught of living peace. If it succeeds, I should be able to wake you with a simple cure. If not, we'll send you to the hospital wing. Begin!
Lily: Professor… is everything quite alright?
Snape:
Lily: Huh?
Snape:
Lily: Professor, are you sure you are okay?
Snape: Thank you for your concern, but it's unnecessary. I'm perfectly
Lily: Very well, Professor.
Scene II
Loc. Great Hall turned into ballroom
Girl 1: Hey! Look! It's Him! The Dark Lord!
Boy 1: I see Him! I can't believe it!
Lily:
Cedric: Have you and him spoken since…
Lily: Other than through owls, no. Git. Doesn't want to be seen with me since I've gone out with you. He thinks it'd be… I don't even know. I don't know why he's acting like this. It's not as if we'd ever been more than friends.
Cedric: But…
Lily: Well...I mean we were always together and the summer I got home from my first Quidditch world cup…
Cedric: How far did it go? You owe it to me. I need to know. Come on, Lily!
Lily: We never snogged if that's what you mean.
Cedric: Oh, that's all very well and but… I don't know what to think. My best friend used to date my girlfriend. Wow. I can't believe he… I thought you had better taste.
Lily: But I'm dating you, aren't I?
Cedric: Too clever for your own good.
Lily: I heard he was going with some Half-Blooded pig.
Cedric: In the current context, you have no idea how mad that sounds.
Lily: Yeah, yeah, whatever. Seems like speech time for dad, from the standing…
The Dark Lord: Are you aware
Scene III
Bellatrix: My Lord, I warned you, oh yes I did, I told you he was trouble!
Tom: Lily, would you like to do the honors?
Lily: Of course, Father. With pleasure. AVADA KEDAVRA!
Nagini, dinner.
Act IX
Scene I
Ginny: Harry, she is coming to, get a grip.
Hermione: Lily, what happened in this vision?
Lily:
Ginny: YOU DID WHAT?!?!?!?!?
Harry: Hark who's talking about getting a grip on themself.
Ginny: Harry, this is different.
Harry: Snape was a great man. He didn't deserve to die. How did it happen?
Lily: I was at a party, and he stormed in with Ron, Hermione and mum, along with some Order members. I just said it, and… It was awful to see the aftermath. And the students were staring at me in awe. Snape. It was horrible. And Cedric's son-
Harry: Cedric is ALIVE?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!
Lily: Yeah, Dad. Want a briefing on what I've summed up, I suppose?
Harry: That'd be useful.
Lily: If everything is similar, then I'll be like you and Mum on the quidditch pitch, skilled legimens and occlumens, and like Teddy, I'm a metamorphmagus. Also, I'll be like Hermione when it comes to tests-
Ron: Oh. Well, Hermione, you've got competition.
Lily:
Harry: You and your mum are practically twins in looks.
Lily: And I cannot remember here, there, but vice versa.
Harry: And do you decide when you leave your visions?
Lily: No, it just happens. And I can't control them. Dad mum, you've both had something similar happen. Advice? I want to end this.
Hermione: If I may, we adults, and perhaps Lily understand what this means. I'm not going to be a Fudge, nor am I going to act like Scrigmore. But, it also means the unthinkable. Harry, is there any possibility-
Harry: It was in front of a thousand that it happened. There is a possibility, but it's very slim chances that he didn't snuff it. You saw to it that all the Death Eaters went to Azkaban. There hasn't been a breakout since Sirius-
Ron: But what about the giants, and the ones with a furry little problem like Lupin-
Harry: They've been acting odd, like I said earlier. Hermione, I know you hate her, but maybe it's time to take her out of retirement.
Hermione: Oh, very well. It's time we pay a visit to Rita skeeter.
Scene II
Rita Skeeter:
Hermione:
Rita:
Hermione: As a matter of fact, it does, Rita.
Rita: Well, I'm in!
Harry: Get your quill out. This is going to be a headliner, if you do well. Hermione will revise, to match Lily's story.
Rita: Very well.
Lily: Well, it started when I heard the snake. I'm parseltongue, like dad. And then the visions started. It started where I met Tom Riddle. Then, as things progressed, I was branded with the Dark
Harry:Did you get all that?
Rita: Of course, Harry. Would Little miss Know-it-all like to check it over?
Hermione: Rita, don't think for a second that I trust you. If I'm putting this in the Daily Prophet, I'm going to fact-check it. Don't think of me as witless. You've dragged the Potter name through enough dirt.
Rita: I'll remind you I saved his name in 1996.
Hermione:One repair does not make up for thousands of destructions.
Ginny: If I may, Minister, we should not make widespread panic. Instead, make an order to the order and D.A. that it's time to move to action- Discreetly of course. If it happens again, then send out the article along with safety measures.
Hermione: Yes, that's what Fudge did, and see where it landed him!
Harry: This time's different. Your acknowledgement makes all the difference!
Ron: Sometimes I wonder how you passed your owls when you're acting like a troll.
Hermione: FINE! But if it backfires, you Potters will receive the blame!
Act X
Scene I
Lily: Dear diary, It's been seven years since my last "Vision" and I'm starting to doubt the authenticity of them. My Fifth year at hogwarts! Starting new classes! On the gryffindor quidditch team! Acing tests! Breathe, self, breathe! Things have been rocky between Dad and Albus, though. But James, oh James, Is already out doing work for gringotts. Albus is going to be an auror, like dad. Can't wait to see how that'll turn out!
Albus: Hey! Lily! Get over here!
Lily:Whats up, Albus?
Albus:Lily, I'd like you to meet Leo Flinch-Fletchy.
Lily:H-hi.
Leo:
Lily:
Leo: I see.
Lily: You weren't bothering me.
Leo: Oh, well, in that case-
Albus: I'm starting to get why Ron hated other boys with mum.
Lily: Albus, just shut up for once in your life.
Albus: More like mum every day, in every way.
Lily: Thanks.
Albus: Not a compliment.
Lily: Don't care.
Albus: I'll owl dad!
Lily: Not a threat.
Albus: Oh really?
Lily:
Albus: Me too. The days before you made a mockery of my ambition in your diary.
Lily: YOU READ MY DIARY!!!!! WHY-
Leo: ALBUS! YOU FIGHT MY FRIEND, YOU FIGHT ME!
Albus: You're a year younger than me. I could easily beat you.
Lily: Did you forget that we are both top students, while you are, ah, what we call the Ronald case?
Albus: And what's that to mean?
Lily:
Albus: WHY YOU-
Prof. Mcgonagall: What is the meaning of this? Lily, I'm surprised by you. And Albus-
Albus: yeah, I know, detention, fifty points from slytherin.
Prof. McGonagall: No, we're well past that point. No, Mr. Potter, you are expelled.
Albus: But-
Prof. McGonagall: Save it for your father.
Albus: Bloody-
Prof. McGonagall: I'll ask you to please go to your dormitory while I contact your father.
Albus: Please! Azkaban! Anything but telling Dad!
Prof. McGonagall: If it hurts that bad, you can apply again next term.
Albus: NEXT TERM?!? B-But that's forever from now!
Prof. McGonagall: It's one year. You can manage.
Leo: Professor, with all due respect, it's not an expulsion if he's allowed to come back.
Prof. McGonagall: True. For those reasons, Mr. Potter, you are permanently banned from the grounds of Hogwarts. You will leave after breakfast tomorrow.
Albus:
Albus: Leo, you've made me your enemy, something you'll regret for the rest of your days.
Leo: And why is that? You've never been cool, you've never been witty, you'll never be powerful.
Albus: YOU DARE-
Leo: Yes, I do. You aren't a threat. Time to face it.
Scene II
Loc.1 dorm 2 Forest w/ gates, midnight
Lily: What am I doing here? Where am I? Why am I not in the dorm?
Scene III
< Lily wakes up in Malfoy Manor, sitting on a comfortable lounge couch>
Astoria: Ah, you're finally awake. The Lord wishes to… to… to see you.
Lily: WHO? I need to get out of here, back to Hogwarts, to…
Astoria: That is not for me to answer. Come now, he is waiting for you.
Voldemort: Astoria, you are excused.
Voldemort: Glad you could join me.
Lily:
Voldemort: I did lead you here, but have nothing to do with the connection. See, I think that from the start you've been her, and she has been you. Your escape from life, from family,
Lily: But… why did you lead me here? I know you have something you want from me.
Voldemort: That's true. The thing is, my world for some reason, cannot figuratively exist without you. While it technically exists, the power that is wielded within is weak. It took all of my strength to pull you to the manor. If you wish to live with unlimited power, I have one task for you.
Lily: But I like my life over there, things are going so well for me-
Voldemort: You mean my puppet who I used to bend the realms to get you here?
Lily: Why, you little, foul,-
Voldemort: And what about the brother who's ashamed to call you a sister? He isn't even worried about how you vanished off the face of the planet. And what about the father that ignored you for the first nine years of your life?
Lily: But, in my world, I can live up to my own expectations, and not have the blood of countless people on my hands. I don't want to be a murderer.
Voldemort: Fine, go off and live your petty life, but mark my words, this is not the end, Lily, you will serve the Dark Lord!
Part III
Loc. Forest by gates, early morning
Astoria: Draco! I think we found the missing girl!
Draco: You mean Potter's girl?
Astoria: Well, she has red hair like the Weasley girl, but other than that, she looks like Potter!
Draco: Well, send an owl to Mcgonagall. See what she thinks we ought to do. We shouldn't move her until Minerva sees fit.
