We hurried across the grass, an owl swopping over our heads, down past the forest and to the shore, the water settling down slowely.
"Hagrid" I said as me and Kira tried to help him sit up, but he was far to heavy.
"I'm all right!" He barked sitting up and shaking his head so we all got wet.
"You could have got seriously hurt!" I told him "That was dangerous". But as I said these words I noticed Stevie had headed over into the water, standing knee deep. "You okay?" I whispered, walking up behind her.
"it's nothing" Stevie whispered back.
"scar?"
"what?"
"it's your scar isn't it?" I said, my voice shaking somewhat.

"Yea" I said kneeling down and running my fingers through the water. The tips of my shorts were splashing in the water. I had taken off my hat and was staring into my reflection in the water.
"It's been hurting about a day now, I dont know.." I said trailing off. I felt Will's arms grasp my sides.
"It'll be allright" he said whispering into my ear. I suddenly felt like we were back together again. I felt eleven again, I felt like everything was going to be allright. Just then I heard a voice behind me that pulled me out of tranquility.
"Thank goodness you're alright" Rachel said as Will pulled away quickly. I sighed and turned around,
"Where were you in all this mess?" I asked her curtly.
"I was inside" She said pointing towards the castle.
"Seems like you're always in the right place at the right time" I said and sat down on shore.
"Poor thing" I said looking at the octopus. Will and Rachel had sat down again "Are you ok" Rachel asked.
I put a hand to my forehead and sat my elbow on my knee.
"I'm ok" I said and rubbed it slightly.

Kira and B where still over talking to Hagrid, as Stevie, Rachel and I sat on the beach, watching some other Gryffindors heading down to see the squid.
"I wonder what spooked it" I said.
"I don't think anything spooked it" Rachel said quickly.
"Look at those marks on it, though, they are burnt marks" I told her, pointing it out "Must be by a spell."
"Will, merpeople can use ice to burn things" Rachel said. I looked at her, that was a very good point.
"Why would the merpeople attack the squid?" Stevie snapped.
"Well, it's breeding season isn't it?" I told her "Maybe they feel threatened." Rachel reached out and put an arm around me. It was hard to tell if it was friendly or somthing more.
"You're the smartest wizard in your year" She grinned.
"You're the smartest witch I have ever met!" I laughed. We smiled at each other for a moment.
"Oh, get me a paper bag, I'm gonna be sick at all this lovey-dovey" Harriet groaned, strolling down the hill with her friends.

"Look whose joined the party," I said sarcastically to B as Harriet walked down. B and I walked down, I turned back to Hagrid for a second, "I'm alrigh' go!" he shoved us off.
I shrugged and looked to B as Harriet laughed, "You should have seen yourselves looking like complete idiots in those kayaks!"
"Atleast we can fit in a kayak," I laughed right back at her. Harriet glared and started saying something to me but my attention left and turned to Stevie who was standing in the water, I walked past Harriet and over to her.
"Stevie? Are you alright?" I asked her.
"Yeah, I'm fine, I'm okay," she said still rubbing at her scar.

I glared evilly at Harriet, thinking of something very catching to say. I almost started to say something, when a pain hit both my head and my mark. I grabbed my right hand and fell on my knees. It was as if I had fallen a sleep. A very painful sleep that is. I saw two figures. Dark ones. They were talking to each other. I couldn't hear what, but then I heard laughing. And then everything started to spin and I realised I was on the ground, still holding my hand in pain.

"Can the Gryffindor's go one week without one of them passing out?" Harriet laughed as I kneeled down to B's side and rub her shoulder as she stirred awake.
"Go away" I groaned angrily, sitting B up, then pulling her to your feet.
"Wh-What?" B said looking around as Kira took her other arm and put it around her to support her.
"Come on, to the common room, she needs to lie down" I said, noticing that we were all still wet.

Hey All, I'm leaving for Manhattan this morning for vacation, I'll be there untill SUnday. Drag me along, got no time to update, seems its going well though. Luv ya guys!!!
-Stevie OOC

ooc: Bye stevie! Anyway, my friend is a cartoon maker animator person and I asked her to make one for this rpg and so she did! click here to see the image. I am adding it to my sig soon! You can edit it or what ever if any of you want to use it.

((Whoa! I love it! Am I around your neck? I have to put that to my siggy too... That's so sweet!))


I was dragged to the common room and lied down onto the sofa. Will sat down next to me. "I saw them Will!" I said gritting through my teeth. "I saw them... I are planning something... And I don't think it's good..." I said looking at him. The pain was fadeing now, but I was still scratching my mark. "I hate myself! I hate myself for getting this stupid thing!" I said looking at it in disgust.

ooc: Yeah that B! She asked me what she looked like and I said 'a female Sirius, so make her hot!'. Lol.

"It's not your fault" I said as Kira and Stevie surrounded her nodding.
"What did you mean by you could see them?" Stevie asked. I looked around and lowered my voice.
"Well, it wouldn't be a first for wizards being able to see other's point of view. Look B, we should tell Mc Gonagall" I said. "In the mean time, don't take what you see too seriously, last time Voldemort used this to lure Harry to the Department of Mysteries" Silence fell over us.
"Dad" B muttered.
"Come on, cheer up mate!" I said to B "You have a lot to look forward too!"
"Like what?" Stevie said outloud. I looked at her,
"Well, my mum's wedding's in a few weeks...hey! There's a quidditch game tomorrow! Gryffindor vs Slytherin, I almost forgot" I said, standing up.
"Yeah!" Kira smiled "Stevie's seeker and B's chaser, right? Actually, it's your first game B!" I remembered last year when B got her new broom and got on the team, it seemed ages ago. (doesn't it really? )

((I'm flattered! And the quiddich thing, I had forgotten all about it))

I sat up. "Yeah, you're probably right..." I said looking at Will and then Stevie. "So are we going to tell McGonagall?" I asked.

((Sprry it's so short. that happens a lot lately))

We were all standing up when I said,
"Why don't you and Stevie go get your brooms and head to the grounds to have some practise, I'll go tell Mc Gonagall" I said happily.
"Really?" Stevie asked smiling.
"Sure, I need to talk to her alone anyway." I added.
- - - - -
I got to the statue outside Mc Gonagall's office when the statue of the Pheonix jumped to life, awaiting the password.
"Erm..." I muttered, unpinning my badge and holding it up to it, it spun around to reveal the stairs that I jumped on, attaching the badge again.
"Come in, Granger" Mc Gonagall called as I noticed the door was opened. She had her back to me as she scribbled down some notes. "Sorry, I just need to send for some medicine for the squid, take a seat" She said finishing the note. A few moments later she took a seat "So, how can I help you?"
"It's B" I said nervously "She had this dream...about Draco and Voldemort. She saw them talking"
"I see" Mc Gonagall said testingly. She rose and walked over to some candles, waving her hand so that they lite up. "Interesting...Thank you, Granger" She turned back around "Tell Miss Black to come to me if she has more dreams."
I rose from my chair and headed out.
"Is there anything else?"
I turned back on my heel.
"Yes...I need to...I need to talk to you about somthing" I started, sitting back down.

OOC: Who's the redhead? lol, just kidding, I love the picture! Oh, look at my jumper! Muaha!

I turned to B and Stevie as they left, then to Will. I looked back and forth then just shrugged and walked out of the room lazily. I stopped at a window and peered out to see students re-grouping outside. I saw some Hufflepuffs walking away from some Slytherins who were still taunting most people, when I remembered Michael.
"His letter," I said to myself and bit my lip, checking my bag to see if it was there.
I ran back outside, "Hey Hagrid," I waved quickly rushing past him.
"Michael!" I called as he just got away from Harriet, "Your owl dropped this," I handed it to him glaring at a few Slytherins as they left.
"Oh, no wonder, thanks," he smiled, I looked past the Slytherins to the Forest for a second. In between the trees I thought I had seen a black cloak for a second.
"Kira?" he waved a hand and I snapped out of it.
"Sorry, thought I saw something..." I said and he turned to where I was looking then back, he shrugged.
"Kira!" I turned around and saw Stevie waving a hand over by the Quidditch pitch.
"Got to go, see ya," I looked to Michael and ran over to Stevie and B.
"Good luck tomorrow!" he called.
"What were you doing with him?" Stevie asked as we walked over.
"Just, aw nevermind it was nothing," I shook my head and looked to their brooms.

I sat onto my broom and pushed off. It was good to get my mind off that dream. I knew it wasn't just a dream. I flew up and then down again, grabbing the quaffle from the box. "Come on, Kira! Grab a broom from the closet and go protect the hoops!" I said smiling to her. Her father, Ron, had been a keeper, maybe Kira knew something too.

"What is it Granger?" Mc Gonagall asked me. I thought for a long moment about how to word this, in a polite manner.
"I just wanted to ask a question about...well, before I was born" I said. She glared at me for a second,
"It depends, what is the question?" She asked.
"Well, when my mum was at high school I know she was close to Krum. I also know he went to Durmstrung and I that that school had a lot of dark arts invovled. So-'
"William" Mc Gonagall said "Vicktor Krum is not and has never been invovled with dark arts" She paused for a moment as I looked down. "I know you are worried about her, but you need to know that he isn't bad like Draco is. You don't want to share her but you have to, she has given a lot up for you and B"
"I know" I muttered.
"Yes, most Granger's do know" She smiled slightly.
"Thanks" I said, then got up and walked out, heading down to the field to see the girls playing quidditch.

"It's okay, I can watch," I called up to her as Will came down.
"Oh come on, Kira!" Stevie called from her broom. I smiled and walked over to the broom closet, grabbing one.
I pulled back my hair then sat down on the broom. I pushed off from the ground into the air and laughed, moving over to the hoops.

I walked over to the trunk and took out the quaffle,
"Hey Kira!" I shouted, then threw it to her. She spun in the air and caught it with a hand "Nice catch!" I grinned. She threw it to B as they continued.
"Will! The snitch!" Stevie called to me. I bent over and took out the case with the snitch in it.
"Here it comes" I shouted to her, unlocking it, the snitch woke up and spun around me, then flew up shooting through the sky. I walked over to the closet, then took out a broom. Kicking off the ground I felt the spin through my hair. I was never the best flier but I had since grown from crashing into the ground.
"Catch!" B called to me, hitting the ball into the air and smacking it with the end of her broom. I let go of my broom and grabbed the ball, but it had gone too far left and I had tipped over, hanging on with my legs.
"Stupid thing!" I muttered at the broom, spinning back around "Kira, you go keeper and me and B will try to score"
"Just don't fall off your broom" Kira muttered heading to the goals.
"Don't make me get the bludgers out!" I shouted to her.

I laughed and spun around on the broom next to the hoop. I watched as Stevie looked around for the snitch then looked to B and Will who were waiting for me to pass them over the quaffle. I knew it was just for fun but being at Hogwarts made me nervous to even just practise keeper and try to block the goals.
I shifted the quaffle to my right hand and looked to the two of them.
"Ready?" I called over.
"Ready!" they both shouted and I threw the quaffle into the air.

I soared up to grab the ball, but B's broom was too fast and she snatched it before me. I spun in the air for a second as I turned around, then headed back, chasing after B. I got out my wand, ready to charm the ball but--
"Will! That's cheating!" Kira called.
"Right" I muttered, putting it back in my pocket. I swooped above B as she threw the ball up to hit it and grabbed it. As I did B's fist came underneath and punched it from under my arm. "You're really good" I said honestly.

((I think I'll add some drama... ))

"Well I am a Gryffindor and Gryffindor has to win this year!" I said proudly and zoomed towards Kira. Suddenly, I felt the same way I did by the lake. The awful pain was back, on my hand and in my head. Only this time the pain was worse. I lost grip of the quaffle and fell of my broom. I was back in that dark room. This time there were three figures. One of them was kneeling infront of the two. From under the hoods it seemed that the standing figures were ginning. Suddenly one of them quickly flashed it's wand and a flash of green light hit the kneeling man back. I felt back in reality, but still heard some cold laugh. I don't remember whn I had hit the ground, but I was lying down, my hand still itching terribly, and I could see my broom hovering next to me. I closed my eyes.

"BIRGIT!" I shouted, zooming down to the ground, Kira had let out a shrill scream and I felt her zoom past me. I leapt off the broom and rolled to the ground, then climbed to my feet and ran to B's side.
"Wake up, please, wake up" I said shaking her. Some students where running over, as Stevie landed and dropped to B's other side.
"She's got a pulse" Stevie said. "It's going fast..."
"c'mon B, wake up" I said, patting her face gently.
"Oh my god!" Stevie said, picking up B's hand, a dark mark was planted on it, and it was glowing a very bright red.
"What does this mean?" I asked Kira and Stevie.
"We can't let other's see it" Stevie said looking around "Let's get her out of here!"

After I close my eyes, I was back in that room. The body of the dead man was now taken away, and there was a cyrcle of death eaters. This time I understood a few words, but they didn't make any sence: him; why; there; tomorrow. I wasn't sure if I was seen, but one of the dark figures suddenly looked towards me and grinned. I shivered and opened my eyes. I saw Will and Stevie carrying me somewhere. "Where are we going?" I asked.

OOC I'm Baaaaack! Lol vacation was awesome! Did some shopping at Bloomingdales saw Ground Zero, in short it was fun! *Laughs at character in Siggy* Wow.. lol anyway OOC

"B!" I said accidently dropping her. "Ouch!" She said falling on her tailbone. "Sorry I said grabbing her forearm and picking her back up. "Are you ok?" Will asked standing her up. She pulled away and wiped the grass of her back end.

"What happened?" Kira asked. "I saw it again" B muttered. "Saw what?" I asked.
"The dark Lord" She muttered.
