Author's Note: Okay, Luna, I might actually read those books you mentioned. Thanks.
As for Ella, I love Puckabrina! And please, PLEASE don't tell me that people actually write Ginny/Draco fics. I just ate.
Welcome to My Side of the River
Sonya
Kate's POV
Oh crap. Oh, crap, crap, crap.
My eyes widened as he said this, pulse hammering with fear. This couldn't be happening. But if it was…
We're doomed.
The Forbidden Scrolls are ancient, probably older than Krikia itself. But, unlike most magic from that time, the Scrolls are forbidden for a reason. They are pure dark magic.
Dark magic is an unreliable thing. It can only be used generally, with devastating results. There's only one thing that you can count on from dark magic.
Namely, the tribute.
That's how it works. You have to promise it a being, and once it's finished its work, it gets to consume the being, and maybe everyone else around it. That's why it's so risky to use the dark magic. It might just consume you.
But… who's the tribute? I wondered. Then, making a snap decision, I decided to try something very new to me, but also necessary.
Sil, I'm going to try to put myself in a trance. This way, we can learn what's going to happen.
First, I sat down. Obviously, I did not want a concussion from the trance. Gently, I began to summon my powers, concentrating on the situation at hand.
Then I felt it. I lost control of my body, allowing the other being to take over. Dimly, I heard myself speak, but it was so faint that I couldn't hear what was being said.
And soon, it was over. I was back in control of my body. I looked up at Sil…
Who was staring at me, horrified.
"What did I say?" I asked. He didn't respond. "Sil, what did I say?"
He finally found his voice. "You… you predicted… you predicted that one of us was going to die."
