A/N: Sorry it took so long for me to put this up. School has been absolutely insane and so has my social life.


Evelyn and I sat in our compartment, watching the students pack around the windows to say goodbye to their parents.

Aunt Rhonda and Uncle David are muggles, and they hate us. They keep Eve and I on opposite sides of the house so we don't 'blow up our room', and barely ever pay any attention to us. I haven't spoken to my Aunt and Uncle in weeks, and we had to walk to the train station. It was horrible.

Finally, the platform disappeared from sight and students began to file into compartments.

Fred and George Weasley appeared and entered our compartment.

"Hello, ladies." They said at the same time.

"Hi Fred, George." We also said at the same time.

"So how were the muggles this summer? They're not keeping you in the basement, are they?" Fred asked, sitting down beside me.

"No. We haven't spoken since July fifteenth. We had to walk here." I explained, rolling my eyes.

"So how was Egypt?" Evelyn questioned as George sat beside her.

"Brilliant."

"I can tell."

"Did the muggles let you read the prophet?" George asked. We shook our heads.

"So you don't know about Sirius Black-"

"What about Sirius Black?" We asked quickly.

"He escaped from Azkaban." As Fred spoke thunder clapped outside. Rain began to pour on the windows.

"Really?"

"Yes."

"And... Did anyone else escape?" I would be petrified if Belatrix Lestrange escaped. She would be out to kill us.

"No."

I sighed in relief. "Good. But how did he escape?"

"No one knows. He must be a genius to do so, though. No ones ever escaped from Azkaban before." George said.

Evelyn and I shared a worried glance. "What if he comes to Hogwarts?"

"He won't come to Hogwarts!" Fred said, poking my shoulder.

"Why would he?" George added.

"I don't know, to get to Harry Potter? Something always seems to happen to him, every single year. What if he's out to get him?"

"Come on, Evie. That was only two years in a row!" George scoffed, putting an arm around her shoulders.

"Don't call me Evie!"

"You know you love it."

"Stop flirting, you two!" Fred rolled his eyes. The two turned bright red and Fred laughed.

"But what if he does come to Hogwarts? He-"

The train stopped suddenly.

"What's going on?" Evelyn asked.

"We're definitely not there yet." Fred looked out the window, confused.

I stood up and opened the door, looking around the hallway. The train lurched and I fell backwards, landing onto the ground. The lights began to flicker.

Fred pulled me back onto the seat beside him, wrapping an arm around me and holding me close to him.

The lights stopped flickering but remained off. It got suddenly cold.

"What's going on?" I whispered.

Suddenly the train lurched again.

"Bloody hell! What's happening?" George said.

I looked at the window and saw that frost began to cover it. I could see my breath and I began to shake. Fred tightened his grip on me.

A creepy, hooded creature floated towards our door, it opened it and I began to shake again. It seemed as if all the happiness had drained from me.

It looked around at each of us, and I took out my wand.

"Megan don't-"

"Petrificus totalus!"

The spell didn't work on the creature. Instead it just turned to me, obviously angry. Then I felt something tugging at me, I wasn't sure what it was. I screamed as I felt every happy memory leave me, and the sad ones filled my head. My mum dying, my dad dying, Belatrix laughing evilly as she murdered my parents.

Suddenly I felt myself black out.

Evelyn POV

I had no idea what the thing was doing to my sister but it wasn't good.

She passed out suddenly and landed on the floor, shaking violently.

"Megan!" We all yelled at the same time.

"Help!" I cried. "Help!"

A small ball of light came out of her mouth, and she stopped shaking. She stopped breathing.

Everyone was frozen.

"Megan!" Fred yelled, kneeling to the ground and shaking her.

Suddenly a man appeared behind the dementor and a bright white shield formed from his wand. The dementor turned away from Megan and flew away. The small ball of light landed back in her mouth and she was breathing again. I sighed in relief.

The lights turned back on. And the man walked in.

"What happened?"

I answered. "She tried to attack the... Um..."

"Dementor."

"...Yes. She tried to attack the dementor but it didn't work and it started to... I don't know..." I began to cry and I buried my face in George's shoulder.

"When we get to the school, take her straight to Madame Pomphrey. She will be unconscious for a while. If she does wake up, give her this." The man handed me a piece of chocolate.

"Chocolate?" I asked, confused.

"It helps. Now I must go... Speak with the driver." The man left, closing the door behind him. The train began to move again.

Fred lifted Megan up onto the seat and put her head in his lap.

"He fancies her, doesn't he?" I whispered to George.

"Since first year." He replied, smirking.

"Knew it."

We both turned back to my sister.

"I read a book on dementors before." I said, breaking the silence.

"No surprise." Fred murmured. I ignored him.

"It said that dementors don't kill people. I think I know what it was trying to do."

"What?" The twins asked at the same time.

I took a deep breath. "It was trying to suck out her soul."

"What?!"

"That's what that little ball of light was. It was her. Her soul. Her life, basically."

"Thank god it didn't suck out her soul. That would kill."

George and I gave each other a knowing look. "It would kill you because you like her."

"Oh, shut up." Fred blushed.

I gasped. "He does! He does like her!"

"Well I wouldn't be surprised to find you two snogging in a broom closet." Fred smirked. We both turned red. "See? George has already wrapped his arms around you! You two can't live without each other!"

George took his arms off me and slid to the other side of the seat, looking at his feet.

"You were doing the same thing to my sister when the lights went out!"

Fred mumbled something incoherent and looked back out the window.

Megan POV

I slowly opened my eyes to see Evelyn, Fred, George, and Madame Pomphrey leaning over me.

"She's awake." The Weasleys said at the same time, grinning.

"Move aside, there we go." Madame Pomphrey pushed the three slightly before handing me a glass of something. "Drink this, dear."

I took the glass and drank it. Bloody hell it tasted horrible. I swallowed and coughed. "What is that?"

She didn't answer. She just checked my forehead and nodded. "You're good to go. Mr Weasleys, Miss Linton, take her back to the common room."

The three nodded and I stood up and followed them towards the common room.

"So what happened?"

"Well, you tried to attack the dementor-" Fred began. I cut him off.

"The what?"

"The cloaked floating creature thing." Great description, Evelyn. Great description.

"Oh. Continue."

"-Anyways, the spell didn't work and it... It tried to suck out your soul." Fred finished.

"It tried to what?!"

"Suck out your soul." George repeated.

"Oh." I said. I rubbed my arms and looked at the ground. I think I read about dementors once. I would hate to be running around, soulless, for decades.

We were silent all the way until the common room. Evelyn went straight up to bed but I sat down on the couch. It wouldn't be easy to sleep since I just woke up.

Fred came and sat beside me. We were silent. Again. I hate silence.

"Fred?"

"Yeah?"

"What happened when I was... Um... Unconscious?"

"Oh. Well, Dumbledore introduced the new DADA teacher Professor Lupin, who saved you, Hagrid's the new Care for Magical Creatures teacher, dementors are guarding the school, and they also attacked Harry."

"Oh. Is that it?"

"Yes."

"...Oh. Okay."
