Emily turned, her hair swinging over her shoulders. Draco glanced at her as she huffed in anger. Jamie was watching Alicia. Harry, Ron, Hermione and Ginny swapped looks.

"My vision's coming true" Emily turned back round, slipping on the wet grass. Draco caught her. "It's happening right now... Voldemort's making plans- and they're involving me..."

"No- Harry would have-" Jamie started, shaking his head. Alicia put a trembling finger to his lips.

"He's blocking Harry out... Somethings terrible is going to happen- it'll start with a fight... A big one" Alicia stared towards the sky as everyone watched her. "The stars... I read about it in them... That's why I came to Firenze, I needed to be sure on what I was seeing..." She raised a shaking hand and pulled the quill out of her hair as it turned light blue. "I've known my fate all along..." She jabbed the quill into her finger so that a drop of blood fell onto the snow. "Bloodshed will start the war, bloodshed will finish it" She whispered.

"Alicia, I don't understand" Jamie said, taking her bleeding finger and healing it with his wand.

"You should... Voldemort came back last june... No one's heard about anything strange going on... I know what's happening behind the scenes- he's waiting, waiting, biding his time... Once his plan gets put into action, there will be bloodshed- people will die... I've always looked at having two choices- Firenze gave me the third option I didn't want to see... Becoming a Death Eater and helping kill innoccent people, help hunt down and kill Harry..." She looked down at Jamie's hand which was still holding hers. "Death- the only way of escaping Voldemort- protecting my family..." Emily's hand lay on top of Jamie's.

"What option did Firenze give you- as he knew we wouldn't allow either of them..." She asked quietly. Alicia's hair darkened suddenly, so did her bracelet- both turned black.

"Fight... For the right to live or for revenge or anything. Fight against Voldemort" She said as she looked round at them all. "That's what I'm going to do- I'm going to fight. If I have to lead our side into it, so be it. Voldemort will not hurt my family" Her hands tightened rounf Jamie's and Emily's hands, "Even if that means I have to fight alone"

"No you won't" Jamie said, returning the pressure on her fingers. "I may not be a mind reader but I know that we'll stick by you- you will not be alone"

"We're family- we stick together through anything" Emily said as if it was the most obvious thing in the world.

"Family" Harry said, adding his hands to theirs. Ginny, Ron and Hermione followed his lead.

"Family" Draco said quietly, adding his hand too. Emily smiled and rested her hand on his shoulder.

"Family..." Alicia repeated, a tiny smile on her face. "You know, I'm glad I finally told you about it... I won't have to lie anymore- which reminds me," She looked over at Draco as they walked up to the castle. "You're not going to like this..."
