Commission for thenewteal on x/twitter for their cowboy au fanfic on ao3!

[kellouko]

So I was digging at my old files and I found a Christmas short story that I wrote long ago but never post anywhere (don’t even ask why 😂). So that gave me the inspiration to wrote a short story - based on this one - in the spy x family universe.

The story is going to be 4 chapters and I am planning to publish the first chapter near Christmas (don’t know the exact date right no but we will see I guess).

Let me know your thoughts. Should I give it a try, although I am sucking at writing fluff? 😂

UPDATE: Prologue is up ❤️

Little scene from the idea I had before about a wall separating the characters. In and out of a dome.

Let me know what you think.

***

Lily couldn't sleep. She couldn't stop feeling that something was missing. That something was wrong. Maybe it was the dead parents that she couldn't remember well. Or the idea that she was alone even when she was surrounded by a lot of friends at Hogwarts.

All the people that was here had lost something. They were victims of the attack that the savages had made. Now they were comfortable in the castle. It had become a refuge for many people after the war. But not quite, outside the barrier, Lily was scared of the remaining savages that were thirst to kill her. To kill all of them.

"You haven't seen the horrible things I've seen there, Lily" Severus had told her.

Severus, like many other volunteers, were guards that protected wizards from the savages out there. Severus did save Lily the night her parents were killed. She barely remembered but she was grateful towards him.

Sometimes, though, Lily wanted to see what was out there. Something in her heart told her that someone was waiting for her. Maybe she was bonkers.

Lily sat up, giving up on her attempt to sleep. She saw Marlene sleeping in the bed next to her. She was whispering again.

"No... Please... Don't kill me..."

Poor girl.

What happened to Marlene was unknown. She had recently arrived. She was the new girl. Probably savages killed someone she loved. Maybe her parents.

They were all orphans anyway.

Lily couldn't believe that she had felt threathened by Marlene's beauty. Lily used to be the queen bee of her last magical school. She remembered she used to have everything. Money, beauty, friends, boyfriends... Things had changed a lot since the accident.

She felt empty all the time.

Lily couldn't stand the weird feeling inside of her. She needed to go out. She needed to think.

****

She's in there. James thought. His heart told him that Lily was inside that barrier. The wall was high and a magic barrier created a dome around the castle.

It was funny how Hogwarts used to be his home. Their home. Now death eaters controlled it.

They had taken everything away from James. His friends Peter and Marlene. His best friend Sirius. And his girlfriend Lily. God his beautiful Lily.

James's fist wrapped around the necklace on his neck where his engagement ring was. Lily and him were going to get married. Despite the potential war, they were so happy.

James knew inside his heart that all of them were inside.

"I rounded the perimeter and no sign of guards" Remus whispered getting James out of his thoughts.

James looked at his friend. Pale, skinny, with bags under his eyes. Beard growing. Dirty with ripped clothes. James was the same. They barely had a roof these days.

James had depended on magic and money his whole life. Now, he had none. They didn't know if their powers were dormat or gone.

Now, they were hiding behind some bushes. It had been months of inspecting this wall and a way inside. James was sure they were all inside.

"Good" James whispered back "Then I'll get closer"

Remus touched his arm "They are probably waiting for you inside. It is too dangerous"

"Moony" James said and Remus flinched. They hadn't used the nicknames in a while "If I have the possibility, I need to see what's inside. They might be in there... They are in there"

Remus looked down. James knew his friend had lost hope. That he believed they were all dead. He had heard Remus crying at night. He was weaker and weaker each full moon. Remus just wanted revenge.

But James had hope. He knew his friends were tougher than that. And Lily... He couldn't think about the idea of losing her.

"Just keep an eye, watch my back and be careful" James instructed. He gave a Remus a walkie talkie. They had to learn to use many muggle things lately "Let me know if you see anything"

Remus didn't look convinced. But he nodded.

"But what are you going to do?" Remus asked "We can't cross the dome"

"I'm just taking a peek inside" James said "Just a peek"

"Okay" Remus nodded again "Be careful"

James kissed his friend's forehead. He walked slowly and carefully towards the wall. He had to hide from the light.

"Just a quick peek, James" Remus's voice sounded from the walkie talkie, making James jump "I'm really scared. It is weird there are no guards"

James grabbed the walkie talkie and talked through it "Don't worry, Remus. I'll be quick"

"I don't want to lose you too"

It broke James's heart how scared and sad Remus sounded. But they had to keep fighting, yeah?

"Someone has to keep preparing the delicious soup you all like, yeah?"

The soup that everyone hated at the layer because James was terrible at preparing things the muggle way.

Remus chuckled "I think we'll all survive without it"

James grinned in the dark. He pocketed the walkie talkie and glanced at the wall in front of him, finding a way to climb.

"Just a peek" he told himself.

****

Lily felt like a rebel as she approached the wall. No guards around. This was too easy.

Lily didn't know what she wanted precisely. She was scared of getting closer to the border. But also thrilled. Curious. So curious.

Maybe she could take a peek out. What would she think she would find? A savage? Plenty of savages ready to kill her?

A sane person wouldn't be doing this after going through everything she had went through. But Lily was so curious to think straight.

When she reached the wall, Lily took a glance around in case some guard was strolling by. She didn't see none. So she decided to climb.

What the hell was she doing?

Lily's heart was beating really really fast. And she didn't know if she was more scared or more excited. This was so confusing.

***

The wall was too high for James's liking. He was struggling to climb and the moving lights didn't let him advance. If he was spotted, he was dead.

Then something weird happened. His engagement ring glowed and floated. It had been enchanted to do so when Lily was around. A silly romantic thing that had popped into James's brain. He had been in love. He was in love still.

"Lily"

James couldn't believe it was still working, nothing magical worked outside the dome. Maybe it was the fact that he was near. So near.

That meant that she was on the other side. That gave James motivation to climb.

***

Lily's legs and arms were shaking, this thing was too high. Of course, otherwise savages could easily climb inside. It was for protection.

Now Lily was doing the dumbest thing someone could do. But something inside of her was telling her she should keep going.

Something was calling her from the other side.

***

James's necklace was crazy. It felt like some sort of magnet was attracting it from the other side. The pull was too strong.

James groaned.

"James, what's going on?" Remus said through the walkie talkie "I see some sort of light"

James was too busy to answer. His hands were barely holding him. He was meters up. So that was why he couldn't stop it when the chain broke and the necklace flew away.

"NO!"

James didn't care if the barrier would fry his hand, he reached for the necklace.

***

The alarm sounded as something crossed the barrier. Lily reached for it. Because something inside her told her to.

But as her hand touched the strange thing, she also felt something warm...

A hand. A warm hand.

The second she touched it, Lily felt electricity running through her veins.

She screamed and lost balance.

***

James hit the ground with a loud groan. Though he couldn't hear anything through the loud alarms.

His mind was running wild with speculations of what he had touched. It was a hand. A soft warm hand that gave him a thrilling electricity.

Then he fell.

And fuck it. James was sure that hand had grabbed his necklace. Whoever was had it.

"Fuck! Fuuuck!!"

Who was that? A death eater? Then why did the necklace flew away? Could it be? Could it be Lily?

Someone touched his shoulder, making him jump. Remus was screaming.

"WE NEED TO GET OUT OF HERE, JAMES!!"

The alarm system was too loud.

"THE GUARDS WIL BE HERE ANY MINUTE!"

"I NEED TO GO BACK, REMUS! MY NECKLACE!!"

"WHAT?"

"MY NECKLACE WITH THE RING! I CAN'T LOSE IT. I CAN'T!!"

It was the promise he had made of always loving Lily Evans. It was the proof they had been in love and so so happy.

There was the sound of hippogriffs approaching. Guards rode them.

"WE NEED TO GO NOW!!"

Remus said as he was trying to drag James. But James was strong and he wanted to cross that bloody wall.

"SHE'S INSIDE, MOONY!! LILY IS INSIDE AND ALIVE!

The necklace would not have done that if it was otherwise.

"WE NEED TO GO! LET'S GO INSIDE!"

"THEY ARE GOING TO KILL US!" Remus was desperate and furious.

James blinked.

"WHO'S GONNA RESCUE HER IF WE GET KILLED!"

Maybe Remus didn't believe him. Maybe he thought James was nuts. But he knew what he saw. Or what he felt more like.

The guards were so so close that James could hear their voices.

"OVER HERE!! THE BARRIER BROKE AROUND HERE!"

Wasn't that voice familiar?

Remus cupped his face.

"JAMES, LISTEN TO ME!! WE NEED TO GO NOW!"

"MY RING, MOONY. THE RING" James suddenly realized he had tears on his eyes.

"WE'LL GET IT BACK, WE'LL GET THEM BACK! I PROMISE" Remus was crying as well. What a mess!

James had to be the strong one. He was their leader. The leader of the resistance.

So he snapped out of it in time to run inside the forest before the guards arrived.

They ran they ran they ran. James could hear the loud alarm, distant screams and the sound of spells. Dark spells probably.

And he ran. He ran. He ran.

***

Lily stayed on the floor for a while. She was dizzy from the loud sound of the alarm. It was over now but it was still ringing her ears. What the hell had just happened?

There was something on her hand, she realized. She was squeezing it between her palm. What was it?

Lily struggled to sit down. And inspected the strange artefact. It was a necklace with a beautiful ring hanging from it. It was glowing.

Lily had the strange sensation she had seen it before.

Whose hand did she touch? Was them the owner of this ring? What if it was a savage?

Lily didn't know that savages could own such beautiful things. She had been told they were practically wild creatures. No heart. No soul. Too corrupted by the lack of magic.

This looked like an engagement ring. Did savages get married as well? Or maybe this was stolen from one of her own.

Lily had no clue. All she knew was that she felt connected to it somehow. That this was a mystery she needed to solve.

"Lily, are you okay?"

Lily hid the forbidden item immediately. The person that had found her was no other than the Headmistress. Bellatrix Black.

She was too young to be a Headmistress. Maybe in her late twenties. But she had been an inspiration for all.

The Blacks had been good fonders of the damaged after the war. They fonded the school supplies and all.

Sirius and Regulus Black, Lily's personal friends, had lost their parents as well at hands of savages. Bella was kind to help her cousins.

"Goodness me" Bellatrix sighed as she helped Lily to her feet "What are you doing here? We are in an emergency, Lily. Savages were spotted near the barrier. It is too dangerous"

"Oh!" Lily tried to act innocent, necklace behind her back "I didn't know that... I was just having a stroll because I couldn't sleep. Then I heard the alarms"

Bellatrix looked at her.

"Why were you on the floor?"

"I tripped!" Lily lied "I got scared when the loud sound began"

"Sorry about that" Bellatrix pursed her lips "The alarm is to warn the guards, not to bother you. It is not meant to be heard inside the castle"

"Oh yeah yeah, that's okay" Lily cleared her throat "Guards should do their work, to protect us..." she swallowed "I hope they catch the savages... I'm scared"

Lily wished she was making a good performance.

"Don't worry, Lily" Bellatrix smiled "I'm sure those savages will get caught" then she placed a hand on her shoulder, guiding her "Why don't we go inside? It is safer in there. Just in case"

Lily squeezed the necklace between her fist.

"Sure"

God, what was wrong with her?
