A/N: Thank you guys so much for the reviews. You inspire me to continue the story. So, in one of the previous chapters, Selene said she "Saw" something. She is kind of half-seer.

PS: I'm not really going to tell the things in the original order, but most of them are going to happen anyone. And some (more)

things are going to be different from the books. The underlined lines are thoughts of people.

Chapter 8 : Letters and revelations

Selene's point of view:

As the days went on, the prank we pulled on Ron reached massive proportions. Fred and George were giving me flowers, we were always staying together and talked whispering to each other in dark corners and giggling. But while Ron thought we were whispering sweet words to each other, we were really having masked real conversations. Of course, my ickle brother was totally oblivious about the whole situation at that made it funnier.

But my whole good disposition just evaporated when I found out I also had another power.

Of course, the power itself wasn't the reason why my happiness evaporated, but the way I found out about it.

I was talking to Sev at some late hour on friday. He was going through an old potions book to choose some potions to do before Christmas break. Suddenly, he started giggling while outlining a potion.

"What's so funny? You found a good potion to make us brew, or a potion to humiliate Harry?"

"First one" he said, as he closed the book and continued giggling. That was a view many students would pay good Galleons for:Severus Snape rolling on the floor with laughter.

"What potion is it, then?"

"Oh no, that's a surprise."

After five good minutes of trying to persuade him to tell me, I was just staring at his forehead, wishing I could know what he was thinking. And that's what happened. I saw two words floating big at the surface of his thoughts, the words that terrified me the most in the world: Animapar video. That was the potion.

"WHAT?!?!?" Why do you want us to do that one? My soulmate will find out then"

"What? How do you know that? You didn't do any spell. Unless..."

"Unless what?"

"You're a born-legiliment"

"Ok. That I can understand. Kind of...But why do you want us to brew that potion?"

"You won't tell me who your soulmate is, so I'll find out on my own. "

"I won't tell anyone until I am ready. I understand you're trying to protect me, but it's too much. I have a plan to wait until he's ready. "

"But I want to know who he is."

"You're acting like a crazy teen girl rather than a grown up man that three quarters of the school are afraid of." I said, rising a turquoise eyebrow.

"Ok,ok. We'll see. But stop morphing your eyebrows in outrageous colors. It's to funny to handle. I can't take you seriously."

"And there goes the last drop of my conviction that your reputation was even barely true."I said, giggling as his smile just wiped off as fast as the eyebrows of some Gryffindor girls.

"Ok now, you should go back to the common room. I think your friends are looking for you."

"Ok. See you tomorrow"I said, though I was suspicious at his attempt to have me gone.

I walked slowly trough the corridors, noting in my mind to research the subject of born-legilimens in some books about rare wizard powers. But before I went to the common room, I went to the Forbidden Forest to watch the unicorns. It calmed me. I disillusioned myself when I exited the castle, but right before I entered the Forest, I noticed two strange things: First, Sev was nearly strangling Quirrell while interrogating him about his knowledge on how to get past Fluffy(so Quirrell was the one trying to get the Stone...), and second, Harry was spying them. Forgetting about the unicorns, I went straight to the Gryffindor tower, disillusioning myself while on an empty corridor.I went to the dorm room, got my books and went to stay in the dark corner where I always stayed with the Weasley twins. But I couldn't really concentrate on the books. I had the image of Harry trying to hear what Quirrell and Sev were saying. I wondered what he thought about that.

Just as the thought crossed my mind, Harry entered the common room, visibly shaken. He marched over to me and dragged me to a couch where Hermione sat. He told us the whole conversation he heard.

"And I think that's why he's threatening Quirrell. So he won't tell the other teachers of his attempts to take whatever Fluffy is guarding."

I mentally slapped my forehead. With that kind of conversations, of course everyone thought he was evil. Sev was literally asking for it.

"Harry, calm down. We have to stop looking for information about Nicholas Flamel. I still have a feeling that I know about him. But we'll search again after Christmas break."

"Ok. Now I have to go find Ron to tell him about it. He said something that he wanted to talk to the twins earlier." Harry said as he left through the portrait hole. I went back to my corner. The only thing that stuck to my brain was that born-legilimens had more power into mind reading and didn't necessary needed eye contact.

It seemed like the odds were against me learning anything today, because as soon as I reached the next page, Fred and George entered the common room, or more like fell into it. They were shaking with laughter. Fred was with one foot in the room, when George's legs gave up and he leant on his twin, and they both fell on the floor. They half walked, half dragged their bodies to where I was sitting, faces the Weasley red with laughter and loud thoughts.

"Oh my god, I can't believe that. When she'll find out.."

"Maybe she'll kill us but it was worth it"

"Maybe you'll tell me what's so funny and what should I kill you for! I'll explain that later to you."I snapped, as Ron entered the room with Harry, the second basically oblivious to the redness of the other's face. I knew they did something that had something to do with me when we arranged ourselves in the exact same positions we had when we decided to pull the prank on Ron: They both had their feets on the table, and I was sitting on Fred's lap with my feet on George's.

"Well, you..."

"...great master..."

"...ickle Ronniekins told us..."

"...that he shouldn't say..."

"...something concerning you..."

"...that was said to him by someone else."

"But he thought you..."

"...deserve to know about that..."

"...cause it's gonna be weird other way"

"...but he didn't want to tell you himself..."

"...so we got to be his massagers."

They looked at each other and them whispered to me at the same time:

"Harry fancies you"

"WHAT?!?!"I shouted

"And it's possible that..."

"...we told Ronniekins..."

"...that's bad luck cause you're choosing between us two"

At that I slapped them so hard they had the outline of a hand on their cheeks.

"Whoa, woman..."

"...calm down"

I raised an eyebrow at them and they said together: "Sorry"

"It's ok, but we have to handle this somehow."

Then I told them about the born-legiliment thing and the potion.

"So basically..."

"...he'll have every student brew and try the potion?"

"Yeah. When brewed correctly, you have to drink only a spoonful and you'll see the clear image of your soulmate. I'll have to do something about it."

"Ok, but really now..."

"...calm down, cause..."

"...the birthmark on your forehead is showing"

"I'm calm. Now off to bed, both of you."

I went to sleep and fell into the world of dreams, finally conscious about the tiredness I felt.

Next morning, I received an unexpected letter that the twins read with me, not as surprised as I was.

Dear Selene,

I heard from Ron, Fred and George that you're a very good friend of them, along with Harry and Hermione with Ron.

Given that it's your first year, I wandered if you three would like to come to our house during the winter break and spend the holidays with us. I hope your parents will let you come.

Can't wait to meet you,

Molly Weasley

I started in disbelief at the paper in front of me.

"You think it's a good idea?"

"We think that..."

"...It's a great idea."

"But we have to warn you..."

"...dad will keep asking you lots of things about muggles."

"It's ok, I can handle that. But you think I'll be able to control my powers? I mean...I never paused using them, here there's no need to do it. But there...it will be."

"We'll be there..."

"...right by your side..."

"...to help you."

"Besides, you still have..."

"...three weeks left to decide."

"You're right."

I had three weeks, but I also had to solve the Harry problem, cause I couldn't spend the holidays with my brother with him liking me. But I had a feeling that the soulmate potion was going to arrange that for me. Damn, it had plus and minus points. Should I let Sev to put us brew it?

One thing was for sure: I was going to spend my first Christmas outside of Hogwarts with my best friends.It was going to be amazing.

A/N: I've got a one shot in two parts written about McGonagall's childhood before she got her Hogwarts letter. Should I post it?
