The winter air was cold against her skin. After this there was no possiblity, no way in hell that Petunia would ever speak to her again. Their school holiday was now ruined and while she knew her parents would forgive her - she'd been defending them all - the Ministry would not! She didn't know how it had happened, but the sooner she got them away from her family the better. Looking over her shoulder, Lily saw they were giving chase. The dread that crept up on her from their presence was counteracted by the adrenaline rushing through her system. She needed to get them as far away from Brighton as she could.
The Evans family had taken Lily and Petunia's hols as a time to visit her grandparents in Brighton, but unfortunately, in the middle of dinner there had been screaming and when she jumped to lock the door her grandmother had come face to face with a Dementor. Needless to say that hadn't gone over well. Lily's wand had been out in a second and she was casting spells left right and center. She managed to get out of the house and was running towards the beach. What she was going to do when she got there? She wasn't sure. There were too many of them... she didn't think she'd be able to cast a Patronus big enough to bannish them.. But she had to do something.
What surprised her the most was the fact that no one had contacted her to tell her something was happening. Hell, she was an Order member. She wasn't about to stand idly by. 'Focus,' she told herself trying to pick up speed. She cast a few spells over her shoulder and kept running. Finally making it to the beach, she realized this had been a strategic miscalculation. She was now trapped with them coming at her and the water behind her. She could turn the water to ice and run, but that would just prolong this confrontation.
With the dementors moving in, Lily raised her wand and concentrated on the charm. "EXPECTO-" she started the spell as they closed in on her in a tight circle, closing her eyes praying that she'd be make it through this. "PATRONUM!!!!" She silently wished that she was anywhere other than here!
There was a flash of light, and a doe of light was conjured. But something was wrong. The Dementors didn't back off, but the light grew and opening her eyes, suddenly Lily couldn't see! She closed them again - necessary lest she go blind. She could feel them drawing closer, it was a split second before she opened her eyes opened again, the light having gone, and she cast the spell again "EXPECTO PATRONUM!" The doe reappeared and it gave her an out she fell to her knees as she felt the coldness starting to engulf her, as the doe grew stronger - Lily never letting go of her wand. And then it was working. And before she could say anything they were flying off!
Lily let herself fall forward, her hands catching her, breathing hard. What were they doing in Brighton? It didn't make any sense... It was only then that she realized that what her hands were touching wasn't sand. It was grass. And it smelled different. She didn't smell the sea, she smelled like cut grass and rain. She looked up - tired from the running and the energy from the spell and saw a building. And there were lights turning on inside... Where the hell was she?
