❀9th Charm❀ [video]

[choseherownway]

[Lily is walking along the corridor of one of the apartment complexes, frowning down at her datapad. There's some sort of kerfuffle happening nearby, but it's not in view of the camera]

Does anyone have any clue what that sound could be? I thought perhaps someone might be having a fight, but--

[There's the sound of a blaster or something similar

I'm sure that sound's just Snape feeling a bit lonely and w-

[He stops the jibe in mid sentence and rushes into the corridor without thinking of what is most likely a dangerous situation. It's Lily.]

Lily? Lily! [James looks back onto the datapad to see where she is in relation to him and does his best to find her. When he does he drops to the ground beside her, stunned. He reverently touches her shoulder as he looks into her lifeless eyes. She can't be dead. This isn't happening. This place is different.]

Someone help! Please! [Maybe someone who knows magic better than he does can fix this, they have to.]

[Seeing James' panic, and the rest of the video, Sirius runs out after his friend, standing back a little when he actually sees Lily's body.

Dead. Again.]

James...

[untilallends]

[When he hears his name James looks up and back, making eye contact with Sirius. This is the furthest thing James has ever been from a joke and he searches Sirius' face for some kind of reassurance that this isn't really happening.]

There has to be a healer around here. [he loops an arm around her back] We can still take her there. It just happened, not even a minute ago.

[Sirius doesn't know what to say, and so he says nothing because this is just unreal. He's dreaming. He's insane. Anything that means he didn't just have to watch Lily die and have to watch his own best friend suffer like this]

She's not going to be healed, James. It takes less than a minute to die. [He sounds hollow as he talks, moving closer to James] We need to be careful.

[James looks at Lily, carefully holding her body as if protecting it from any new attackers. He then looks at Sirius, seeking some kind of guidance.] What can I do? [He doesn't want to just leave her body, that seems disrespectful.]

[brokentorch]

[Sirius almost tells James nothing, that creeping black depression beginning to settle in on him tightly, but this is his best friend holding his future wife's dead body. Or what was supposed to be... He clamps down on that thought and tosses it out]

We need to take her somewhere else, James. So that she... Can't be disturbed.

[His voice is a little tighter, a little harsher, with his next words] And then we find what did this.

[untilallends]

[He stands up, with Lily's body carefully and solidly in his arms and nods.]

Let's go.

[OOC: End thread here and start blowin' shitz up? :D]

That sounds like a badass plan to me!
