Chapter 21: Brilliant and summer
It was dinner time in the Great Hall and we were all sitting there trying to control our laughter as the sixth year Slytherin's that attacked me came in. Their hairs were wild and they all had scratches all over their skins and clothes. I ducked under the table and buried my face into my sister's side trying not to laugh, let alone get seen by them. My sister on the other hand was laughing freely at the sight of them, Lily was laughing as well. I crawled out and peeked over James' shoulder at them. They had a death stare on their face as they looked at my sister and Lily. I got onto the table and bowed at everyone.
"No one and I mean no one screws me over and gets away with me!" I yelled over all the laughter. "Next time you decide to leave me for dead make sure I'm dead before walking away!" With that a grin spread across my lips as the Slytherin's hair started turning purple. This time I wasn't going to turn it back to its original color and jumped down, hugged my sister and Lily.
The days turned into weeks and the weeks turned into months. Before any of us new it, it was the end of the year and we're all leaving to go home. I'm now 17 and can use magic outside of school, so can my sister. Remus promised my sister that he'll visit her at our place since he knew I didn't want to stay at the Potter's place. My sister packed muggle style and Lily packed muggles style as well. I on the other hand packed magically and was ready to leave. We wore our gypsy outfits. I had on a long black skirt and a short puffy sleeve shirt on. I had everything on, jewelry pouches and both sashes. I personally sewn Lily's own and bought everything else she needed. She was wearing emerald green that matched her eyes. She really could pull off being a gypsy. My sister wore all white and she looked pure innocent even though I know she's not innocent.
We were finally on the train sitting in our own compartment and I was once again reading a book. Lily and Remus were patrolling the train. We were stuck with the guys and Sirius' girlfriend Marline McKinnon. My book slipped out of my hands and my face went blank. My body went limp and my body fell against James, who looked at me.
It was dark and cold. I had no idea were I was. I could feel cement brink walls and a damp floor. I stood up slowly and walked towards the other side of the room, felt a door knob. I turned it but it was locked. I can hear voices on the other side!
"Why can't we kill that little bitch now?" The voice of Bellatrix said
"The Dark Lord has plans for that little bitch of a seer." The voice of Lucius Malfoy said. I knew right off they were talking about me. How that could be so blinding to me? I had no idea! I turned around when I heard evil laughter in the small cell I was in. My eyes went wide. I saw red eyes, pale skin and a slit nose that looked snake like. The voices on the other side stopped talking. A blue spell headed towards me from the Dark Lord's wand. I dodged it and landed on the hard floor. I looked around and gasped as his pale hand wrapped around my throat. I couldn't breathe as he started closing his hand around my throat tighter and tighter.
I came out of the vision gasping for air and I could see my sister was on her knees in front of me, looking scared. I sat up but placed my head between my knees. I sat up once I knew I could breathe normally and looked out the window which I noticed I had tear stains on my face. I had cried and that was embarrassing! I stood up and went to the door without another word. I went out of the compartment and walked the hall towards the bathroom. That's when I saw it: Lily was up against the wall, breathing heavenly and her wand out. Remus on the floor which was most likely passed out and his wand was still in his hand.
That's when I felt it, all the anger inside of me bursting out and all the Slytherin's were tossed up against the walls, knocked out. Lily looked around and ran to me. She supported me against her own weaken body and guided me towards the passed out Remus. I sat down and placed my hand over his shoulder. Warmth spread through my hand and healed Remus from any injuries that he had on his body, the spell that hit him was released from him.
He sat up and looked around, Slytherin's knocks out all over the hall. He pulled himself up and picked me up. Lily performed a cleaning spell on all three of us. I was drained from the magic and the vision I had. I felt my body go limp and passed out in Remus' arms. When I woke up I was still in Remus' arms and I noticed we were already at Kings Cross. All of our things were on the platform with us and I looked up at him with a frown. I jumped out of his arms and grabbed my things. I sighed and turned to him. "Thanks Remus. You're welcome to stay with us if you wish." I said to him softly. We all hugged, Cass kissed Remus passionately while I hugged Lily. "You're welcome to stay with us as well Lils." I said to her in her ear and she only nodded.
"I'll owl you!" Lils said as she grabbed her things and ran off to her family. My sister and I disappeared on the spot and reappeared in our home.
