Chapter 9: In Dreams
“She’s getting weaker my Lord, but I believe
we should speed this up.” Wormtail squeaked in his mousey voice, as he kneeled
before his master in the dark room lit by a dying fire.
“And as I’ve told you before my stupid
rodent, not till The Celestial Moon, when her powers are at the weakest.”
Voldemort hissed venomously at the short pudgy man before him.
“Now leave and send in Lucius.” Voldemort spoke coldly as the man kissed the hem
of his robe, bowed once more before scurrying out of the room. A Few moments
later Lucius arrived, blond hair flowing, black cape bellowing as he walked
into the Room, kneeling before him and kissing the hem of his robes.
“What news do you have for me Lucius…and I
hope it is well for your sake.”
“I’ve found her…She’s being held back at
home, and her memories are intact…do you wish me to bring her too you?” Lucius
said as he smiled maliciously at his master.
“Yes, post haste, you may leave…” Voldemort
smiled as the man bowed once more kissed the hem of his robes before departing
with a swish of his black cloak…
Miles away Harry awoke with a start, chest heaving, breathing labored, sweat pouring down his face… … …
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
The five sat on the top most stone bench of
the large circular room looking down at the two people battling. He turned to
the left and looked and saw to people to the right wondering why they where
there when they were never there when it really happened…
She looked to her right realizing what she
had missed when this event really happened…
He turned to his left seeing the four other
people not recognizing the room and wondering if this is how the man below
died…
She recognized the room and realized this
was the man to her left memory of this event…
He looked to the left at his four friends
watching the events that had unfolded that he had missed while under that
insane spell…
They all sat watching the long black haired
man and women battle it out then watched as the man was hit with a spell in the
chest he looked up at the five before falling threw the veil…
Next they were on the floor. Green flames
from were people were apparating and they looked up at there headmaster as he
spoke in his strong calming voice…”You’ll find several escaped Death Eaters
contained in the death Chamber, bound by an Anti-Disapparation Jinx and
awaiting your decision as to what to do with them.” Albus Dumbledore spoke. The
phrase rolling over and over in the five heads…Before Harry, Hermione, Ron,
Ginny and Draco woke up…
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
“He heard me speaking...had I not been so upset...” Nia voice trailed off as she shook her head. Her blond locks shaking gently.
“Well what’s done is done...He would have figured out anyhow... As she is a mirror to Emily and Madeline...So we just keep a closer watch on her... any news on Narcissia?” Graham asked quietly as he looked at the pretty blond standing before the group of people in this sparkling clean kitchen...obviously Nia handiwork.
“She went back; do you think the charm will work?” Nia asked looking up.
“Well unless Miss Granger did it wrong which I highly doubt...no it will be fine...She should only be able to tell the exact opposites of everything that happened...” Graham spoke in a casual tone.
“Why do you do that?” He asked quietly speaking for the first time all evening.
“Do what?” asked Graham in a condescending voice. His hard black eyes boring into the other man’s gray one’s.
“Call her Miss Granger...its Mrs. Black or do I need to remind you that she still is my wife.” Sirius said as he looked at the older man who had the privilege of seeing his wife on a daily basis.
“Because your dead remember, all though They and when I mean they I mean Harry, Ron, Mione, Ginny and Draco are beginning to doubt that...because of your mistake Albus...not intentional I’m sure, but now all are even more confused, Draco, Mione and Harry are accomplished Legilimencist...Riddle’s been raiding all five of their dreams and been making them doubt that...So in their mind it’s a lie, but you of all people know what they are like when presented with an unanswered question...they dig and dig till they know the truth...and like usual brother I’m there to clean up your mess. How could you do that to her...Marry her, have her fall in love with you then leave, to care for your two children, For once in you life can’t you think with the head on top of your neck.” Graham said in a disgust filled voice filled with contempt. Sirius reached for his wand as Graham pointed his at his younger half brother. It was his youngest brother who spoke.
“Enough... Sirius sit, Graham put the wand away...I’m fucking tired of this, He loves her, he misses her, But this had to be done for both her and Harry’s sake, They need this time apart and they need to know what lose truly is. No I don’t feel comfortable with the fact that she is pregnant none of us here do, but that’s the way the dice rolled and you need to stop assuming that Albus is making these mistakes...That was planned...Mione is the only truly accomplished Legilimencist, but her doubts are what we need, Harry and Draco don’t compare to her...So cool it both of you, now apologize and let’s finish this.” Regulus spoke in a calm voice.
“Sorry, won’t happen again.” Graham spoke looking at his both his brother’s.
“Sorry too, is she ok.” Sirius asked in a tired voice filled with worry.
“She’s fine, she hasn’t told anyone about herself, she misses you as does Harry, Being around me reminds them of you...I did a charm to help her get over that, She Picked out names, Harry and Ron are going to be godfather Harry to Elizabeth Ron to Ryan. The baby shower was fine. The Nursery is done, the muggle theme being Winnie the Pooh, She’s still on the small side though, but I think in the last couple of weeks she’s put on at least 10 more lbs, and they read the books. She can read them now too. Ginny’s showing great signs of being a truly gifted seer, Ron’s Healer skills are impeccable, Harry and Draco Vermeleon skills are astounding. Mione’s book is about half done. They truly are an amazing bunch; Ron and Harry are beginning to understand Draco more and becoming closer because of it. As for everything else all is fine.” Graham spoke in a relaxed voice.
“Good, please just make sure it stays like that, I’d hate to think of anything bad happening to them.” Sirius spoke in a soft voice.
“I Promise...” Graham said with a smile.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
“Ok, Class listen up, told day we’ll be working on the Veritaserum Potion...aka the Truth potion...Does anyone know the ingredients and or schematic of this Potion?” Celestial Lobellia Fudge spoke in calm voice as she looked around the room. One hand rose in the room of full of young adults.
“Yes, Mrs. Black you have an answer.” Bella asked the young mother to be.
“Yes, the ingredients are as follow: one powered stem of Moonflower, 2 hairs of a unicorn tail, 2 oz of dragon blood, a tsp of karriote seed, 12 oz of Phoenix tears, 5 oz of Unicorn tears and 3 tsp of Lavender root, the Schematic are that the Lavender root and the Moonflower are they base of the potion while the combination of Phoenix and Unicorn tears are pure creatures, bringing out the purity in those who drink it...The potion has to mixed during the time of the full moon when the Lavender and Moonflower are at their peak and can only be plucked other wise the roots are poisonous and thus kill the drinker.” Mione said in a soft voice.
“Excellent, let’s begin.” Bella spoke as she smiled back at the girl. With a wave of her wand the ingredients appeared on the board behind her and the door to the cupboard opened. She sat for a few moments looking over last nights homework assignments. Occasionally looking up as the students began mixing the potion. Once the hour was over she began walking around the room to inspect the potions. She stopped once she reached Mione and Ginny’s table.
“It’s nice to see you participating more in class Mione...Do you mind if I call you that and you can call me Bella...I feel very old being called Celestial Fudge, When I’m only a few years older then you. Looks good…Now class for homework I’d like you to write up one question for everyone in this room you like to ask them…so that’s 45 question to be handed in…label name then question for that person…nothing about sex, crimes, or drugs please…If I believe it’s too personal…then I’ll cross it off and you’ll have to ask another...other assignment read up on the counter potion to Veritaserum…pages 372 to 412…Good day.” Bella spoke to people around the room as she stood behind the two girls. She put her hand on their shoulders and said quietly
“You two stay I need to talk to you both.” Bella said in a calm voice as they turned and looked at her she smiled and they nodded. As everyone got up and began to leave. Draco looked back at her but she nodded indicating she’s see him in a bit. Once the room was empty Bella closed the door and took a seat across from them. Tall with a waist length curly golden blond hair and sparkling violet eyes, Bella was any mans dream fantasy. For the past 5 months she had been watching the young widow hoping against hope she’d be ok…over the past few weeks…she seemed to be coming out of her shell…the arrival of her children obviously helping most significantly. She smiled at her friend knowing just as much about her as she did about Mione.
“First off, the staff here is both very impressed with your skills and upon complete next year …would like to offer you positions, but we can talk more about that later. Second Mione as your faculty advisor it’s my job to see to your well being… Nurse Hallowell, your Healer and I are all in agreement that a strengthening potion for the next few weeks would be in your best interest as a safety measure because your former Healer said you had some complications at the start of your pregnancy…something about an unknown spell by an anonymous attacker. Did you report the attack? Were there witnesses? Can you give a description of the attacker?” Bella asked in her usual soothing voice.
“No, and yes and yes, but I can’t talk about it…” Mione said in a soft voice.
“Ok that’s fine…just start with the potion and we’ll go from there, But remember help will always be given to those who ask for it.” Bella said with a grin. Both girls’ eyes widened at those words as they had heard them from another one whom they greatly respected realizing at once what she was talking about. Both grinned at the women before them.
“Oh yes one more thing you both must seriously know is that the door to this room is always open to you both anytime day or…starry night.” Bella said putting a stress on the last words. Both nodded and rose offering their hands.
“Have a good day…I hope to see you soon. Oh by the way you should read the Daily Prophet there are some very interesting articles on Star and Moon Gazing. ” Bella said as she got up and took the two flask potions from their desk before nodding.
“You too Bella and you will.” Mione said in a voice filled with joy as she walked out of a room. Once out of the room she grabbed Ginny and began jumping up and down. Ginny put her hands on the other girl’s shoulders and said loudly.
“Calm down…your going to go into labor her in the hall.” Ginny said so happy to see her friend this excited.
“Can you believe this...pinch me please tell me I’m not dreaming…Did she really say what I think she said…I can’t believe this…you don’t think this is a joke do you.” Mione asked in a worried whisper.
“No, she wasn’t lying, I didn’t get that feeling from her…We need to get you to the nurse….you’ won’t last the rest of the day without a calming potion. Take a deep breath and relax alright…I know exactly how you feel, but you gotta remember the twins sweetie…So come on let’s get you to Hallowell, then some lunch.” Ginny said as Mione began briskly walking, a shit eating grin on her luminous face. They got to the 3rd floor in record time… Face after shocked face at seeing the young mother to be so joyously ecstatic…instead of in such a deep melancholy. By the time they reached their destination Mione looked fit to burst.
“Oh my god Ginny, I can’t believe it’s really true…He’s really alive…” Mione said in a rushed whisper…tears in her eyes…filling her heart was ready to burst.
“Yes, I know…I’m so happy for you, but you need to relax, this can not leave us alright?” Ginny said as she nurse came over to the two girls waiting by the door to the hospital wing.
“Is everything alright my dears?” Nurse Hallowell asked in her usual motherly tone.
“Yes, she needs a calming potion, she received some very surprising news and needs to calm down I’m afraid she might go into labor from the shock of it.” Ginny said in calm voice as Mione looked ready to dance a jig.
“Ok, take a seat and I’ll be right back.” Nurse Hallowell said with a smile before going into her office she returned a few moments later with a goblet and a clear bottle with a green liquid. She poured some in the goblet and handed it to Mione with a smile. She drank it quickly. Her jumbled nerves calm almost instantly, but the grin and glow were still apparent. Her anxious body stopped trembling and when she spoke her voice was still cheerful yet much calmer.
“Thank you Madam Hallowell.” Mione said with an angelic smile.
“Your welcome my dear and come back if there is anything else you need.” Kathy Hallowell said as she sighed contently relief flooding threw her that the young woman was so happy. Both got up and walked quietly out of the room, but not before Nurse Hallowell gave Ginny a flask of the calming potion.
“We’ll go tonight right.” Mione asked in calmer voice.
“Yes, I don’t think nothing short of an act of god could keep you away. We’ll go tonight. We’ll borrow Draco’s cloak…Do you want to tell him or Ron or Harry?” Ginny asked as they walked down the now empty hall to the Dining Room.
“Not yet, do you mind if I see him by myself?” Mione asked softly.
“No, I’ll stay outside the room, I figured you’d want to be alone, But make sure it him. I’d hate to think this of this being a trap, but like Mad- Eye always says Constant Vigilances. I’ll be right outside don’t seal the door I promise you won’t be interrupted and if anything seems even vaguely wrong get the Hell out. Now take one more breath and think calm thoughts.” Ginny said as they stopped in front of the large oak doors. Mione took a slow deep breath before opening the door. They walked quickly to their table and took a seat. Draco and others at the table noticing the change in Mione appearance at once. Ginny reached for the Daily Prophet and unrolling it began to read the headline …
Sirius
Black Cleared of All Charges
Yesterday
20 Auror on an anonymous tip raided a possible death eater hideout. Capturing
five Death eaters and killing two…amongst them was one Peter Pettigrew.
Believed to be killed by Sirius Black almost 15 years ago…his apprehension proves that Mr. Black was wrongly accused of
a death that never took place and there for granted immediate clemency for
crimes against him. Mr. Black was unavailable for comment.
She continued to read the article. Her jaw dropping more and more as Mione filled her plate to full capacity. She reached into her pocket and pulled out the flask the nurse gave her before she left and gave nudged Mione gently.
“Here take some more…Eat then you can read this.” Ginny said pointing to the paper she had rolled back up.
“Why?” Mione asked her fork stopping half way to her mouth.
“Because once you see the paper…you’ll need the potion. Just take it then read the paper after you eat…Go ahead.” Ginny said serenely as she passed the flask to Mione who took the flask in her right hand and took a long swig. Soon Mione cleared her plate and was adding seconds. While across the room two other men were watching from a distance. Both with questions in their eyes pointed to the young red as to why their friend was apparently in such high spirits. Both pleased yet curious over the change when less then an hour ago she was still in such distressed state. Ginny discreetly pointed to the paper in front of her. Both winked and grabbed their copy and began to read with in seconds both had looks of complete incredulity on their face. Ginny smiled and nodded ever so gently. Once finished Mione reached for the paper, unrolled it and began reading quickly, jaw dropping as she read the front page looking ready to faint.
“Are you alright, you want to go back to the nurse?” Ginny whispered once Mione put the paper down.
“No, I think I’ll be ok…Do you think it could get any better?” Mione asked with an ear splitting grin.
“Sure they can name you the next Ministry of Magic.” Ginny said with a smirk.
“Ya, like I’d really want the job…I think I’ll be getting a zero in Fisher’s class…I don’t think I can keep this smile off my face…I can’t believe it…I just…” Mione’s voice trailed off. By this time Draco who had been sitting beside Ginny was looking at the paper.
“I take it the she read the article?” Draco asked quietly as Mione began reaching for desserts something she hadn’t done in months.
“Yes, amongst other things, can we borrow the cloak tonight?” Ginny whispered.
“Sure, you two aren’t leaving the Castle? What do you mean other things?” He asked softly.
“No, we’ll still be here…Thank you Draco as for the other things she’ll most likely tell you tomorrow…I just gotta keep her calm till then.” Ginny said quietly.
“Ok, just be careful alright.” Draco said softly looking at the merry Mione as she finished her 3rd dessert looking like the cat that had drunk too much cream. He leaned forward and smiled till she returned his gaze and gave him a dazzling one in return. Once finished they walked to D.A.D.A People stopping and staring at the change in Mione demeanor. By the time they got to the class on the 5th floor…Mione had to take several deep breaths before she entered the class room to the one man that could see threw any shield she put up around herself. She walked quietly to her seat sit and pulled out her book, ink, parchment and quill, writing down the assignment written on the black board. Her face impassive as her eyes stared straight ahead. The glow illuminating her face, seem to radiate from her body all around her felt a warmth just to be near her. A sense of Serenity enveloped the room. When Graham walked into the room he felt the change immediately and suspected who caused the glowing atmosphere in the room itself and the young women who sat serenely in the middle of it.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
For the past half and hour they had neither heard nor did as he said…He closed his eyes briefly figuring now was as good a time as any to explain what Mione was and why she was so different for the past several months since her arrival the questions for the other staff members, with the exception of Bella and The headmaster Aberforth no one knew who or what type of magical being she was but all were equally impressed with her abilities…the same went from the students…both young and old were just as curious as to exactly what made Hermione so special. He took a deep breath before having to crush her mood. Hopefully she wouldn’t look at it that way.
“Mrs. Black not to be rude but I need you to leave…In fact don’t bother to go to the rest of your classes for today…Just go to your room or tower…anywhere alright.” He spoke in a cold malicious voice.
“Is there something wrong?” she asked in a calm voice.
“Besides the fact that your glowing and distracting my class no nothing.” He spoke in a sarcastic voice…eyes narrowed, lips presses in a thin line.
“I’m… glowing…” she asked in a skeptical voice.
“Yes, obviously you have learned nothing in the past 5 months, by now I’d think you’d be able to control those emotions…but I assumed too much and when one assumes that makes an ass out of me and you. So get out of my class now…until you can control yourself don’t bother to return…obviously you don’t know as much as you think.” Graham spoke in a mocking voice as he watched the gold glow fade to nothing. She looked at with a calm expression and when she spoke it was in a clear slow voice.
“Is your hatred towards Sirius so strong that you have to take it out on me…What did he do that would make you so blinded by disgust that you feel the need to take it out on others. You think you can stand before me and I’m going to take this shit from you. You talk about control and think I don’t see why you are the way you are…That I can’t feel that misguided maliciousness that you feel for your brother or anyone that he knows. You where one of the first person he told me about When we became friends, He has such admiration for you…I don’t think there is anyone he respects more then you…I feel sorry for you Graham…I hope one day you can see how much that man truly loves you.” She said quietly. She stood up and with a sweep of her hand her stuff vanished and with a crack she disappeared leaving the class in stunned silence.
Linkin'
Park - In the End
It starts with
One thing/I don't know why
It doesn't even matter how hard you try
Keep that in mind/I designed this rhyme
To explain in due time
All I know
Time is a valuable thing
Watch it fly by as the pendulum swings
Watch it count down to the end of the day
The clock ticks life away
Its so unreal
Didn't look out below
Watch the time go right out the window
Trying to hold on/But didn't even know
Wasted it all just to
Watch it go
I kept everything inside and even though
I tried/it all fell apart
What it meant to me will eventually/be a
memory/of a time when
I tried so hard
And got so far
But in the end
It doesn't even matter
I had to fall
And lose it all
But in the end
It doesn't even matter
One thing/I don't know why
Doesn't even matter how hard you try
Keep that in mind/I designed this rhyme
To remind myself how
I tried so hard
In spite of the way you were mocking me
Actin like I was a part of
Remembering all the times you fought w/ me/I'm
surprised
It got so (far)
Things aren't the way they were before
You wouldn’t even recognize me anymore
Not that you knew me back then
But it all comes back to me
In the end
You kept everything inside and even
though I tried/it all fell apart
What it meant to me/will eventually/be a
memory/of a time when I
Tried so hard
And got so far
But in the end
It doesn't even matter
I had to fall
And lose it all
But in the end
It doesn't even matter
Repeat 2 xs:
I put my trust in you
Pushed as far as I can go
For all this
There's only one thing u should know
I tried so hard
And got so far
But in the end
It doesn't even matter
I had to fall
And lose it all
But in the end
It doesn't even matter
Please Read and Review Thanks…
