A/N: Hmmmmmm, here we go. Chapter 5 is here! ~:bows graciously:~ I know things are going fast, but I really want to get on with things that come later. Please R/R, and thanx so much to the people who have reviewed so far!!!!!!! This picks up strait from Chapter 4.
By now Lauren had realized something was going on. "Lily! Oh my God, Lils, what is it?" she asked, sounding very concerned.
I felt strangely calm, almost relaxed. James held me at me at arms length. Very urgently, he whispered, "Did you hear it?"
I looked at him. "Hear what? What do you mean?"
"Did you hear it? It was you, wasn't it? And a baby. Did you hear it?"
I nodded, somewhat frightened. "I- I saw it," I whispered.
Lauren was beside herself. "Lily, what did you see? TELL me!"
I fully intended on telling her. But I didn't have the chance. McGonagall was at the table, adressing me. "Miss Evans, Dumbledore wishes to speak with you. And you, Potter."
"Professor, is something wrong?" I asked, almost frantic. My mind began racing. The muggle murders, were my parents dead? My sister? Were they gone?
"No, no, not wrong exactly. Just, well, Dumbledore will explain it to you. I will take you to his office now."
I was worried, but frankly, I didn't want to go to the Headmaster's office. I was hungry, and I wanted to know why James had heard what I saw. It was early, and a Saturday!
Regardless, I signaled Lauren that I would explain to her later, and followed the Professor, James beside me.
Dumbledore entered the office. Sitting down behind his desk, he smiled at us. "Where to begin?" he asked himself, as if starting a very long tale.
The old man took a deep breath. "In each generation since the beginning of the Dark Arts, two have been chosen. Chosen to love each other beyond anything. To share their lives. And now these two are you."
I sucked in a breath. Dumbledore continued, set on making his point. "You were chosen to fight against the Dark Arts. You were each given certain talents, as aids. Lily, you are a true seer. Your eyes are proof, the color is that only of a seer. James, you were given the power of telepathy. You can hear Lily's thoughts, but only if she channels them correctly."
He paused, letting the news sink in. I grabbed James's hand. That must have been why James heard my vision.
"Professor, I had a vision. Just after you finished your speech at breakfast."
"Oh, I see. Can you remember exactly what you saw, Miss Evans?"
I nodded, and explained about seeing myself and Voldemort. About the baby, Harry. About the tremendous pain inside my head.
"Yes, the pain is quite normal, I'm afraid."
James said, "I heard it. I heard Lily scream, beg for the life of the baby."
Dumbledore nodded. "Tonight you must preform a difficult charm. It is a bonding spell, called the Foreverulas Charm."
