The Perfect Assassin

            Summary:  She was trained… to kill.  She was skilled… to kill.  She was licensed… to kill.  She had precision and a good eye.  She was the best… the best assassin Voldemort ever had… until she was to take care of Potter… until she met James Potter.

            Disclaimer:  We only own what you do not recognize.

            A/N:  It was really freaky, one night I was thinking of a good Lily and James story and the next thing I knew I had the summary of this story ready.  I'm not sure where it's going, but it will end with Lily's death.  Hope you enjoy.

Prologue – The Plan

                        That was how it started- plain and simple.  He had merely taken the child right under everyone's nose.

            So he hadn't taken the child, but he had ordered it to be done.

*Flashback*

            "Malfoy, Snape, have you done what I have asked?" questioned a handsome man who was seated upon a throne.

            The blonde man nodded and bowed before he presented a bundle to the man.  "Of course, my Lord."

            "Very good, very good.  Snape?"  He turned his gaze to the dark haired man.

            "Yes my Lord?" Snape asked with a bow.

            "Did you perform the spells on this?" he asked as he held the bundle between both thumbs and fore fingers.

            "Of course, my Lord.  And you were right.  It was amazing power."

            "I was… right?" whispered the seated man.  "I am ALWAYS right, you incompetent fool.  You idiot."

            Snape gulped as Malfoy snickered.

            "Find something funny, Malfoy?"

            Malfoy quickly shook his head no.

            "Very well.  I have a present for the both of you.  CrucioCrucio!"

            The spells hit both men in the chest.  They fell to the floor in pain, screaming and withering.

            The man in the throne flicked his wand ending the curse as the bundle, which he had placed at his feet, screamed at the top of its miniature lungs.

            "Get that thing out of here!"

             The two gasping men nodded.  "Of course, Lord Voldemort."

            Snape quickly ran forward and picked up the bundle to take it out of the room.

            Voldemort asked the two men something just before they closed the door.

            "What's its name?"

            "Lillix, my Lord," answered Malfoy before he closed the door to prevent the things screaming from disturbing Voldemort.

            "Welcome Lillix Evans, welcome.  I have great things for you.  Great things indeed."

            And with that, he laughed a cold, cruel laugh that would scare any living thing to the grave.

*End of Flashback*

            Now, because of those two 'friends', as he liked to say, Voldemort had the best successor in the world.  Not only was she perfectly trained for taking over for him should anything happen, she was the best assassin anyone would ever see…if they lived long enough.

            Lillix had blossomed into a killing machine, a killing machine that only the Snape and Malfoy families knew about.

            And why?  Simply because if a Death Eater was to betray him, Lillix could go in and kill that person and his family without them knowing of her.

            Sure everyone knew that he had a successor that he trained in secret, but they didn't know who it was or what they looked like, which was perfect for his uses of her.  If they didn't know what she looked like or who she was, no one could fear her if they saw her.

            Another perfect thing about her was that she looked like an innocent school girl.  If anyone saw an innocent school girl following them, they probably wouldn't guess she was going to kill them.

            Voldemort smiled.  He had a new assignment for Lillix.  An… important assignment for Lillix.

            Hope you have enjoyed the prologue of The Perfect Assassin.  Review!
