A/N: maybe this chapter will be a little better organized than the first one. I was so eager to get it uploaded I was rushing and it ended up kind of messy. So...read and enjoy.... Then review!
Disclaimer: I don't own anything but Deyna and the plot.....*sigh*
Chapter 2
Blurred Visions
The next morning, Remus with a feeling like he had been on a long journey overnight. The mysterious dream still haunted him. He couldn't shake the feeling that he had seen those eyes some where before, they seemed to bore right thru his very soul. And, what did the pool and the girl's wounds symbolize? He ran his hands thru his sandy, blonde hair as he swung his legs over the edge of the bed, muttering to himself "oh well, maybe I shouldn't eat cheese while playing exploding snap right before I go to bed.
Remus quietly crept across the fifth year boy's dorm, hoping not to wake James, Sirius, and Peter. They were still asleep and waking them this early was about as dangerous as shaking hands with a mad chimera. He managed to shower and get dressed very quietly before heading down the dormitory steps to the common room. Lily Evans, Arabella Figg, and Deyna White were already there, along with some people he didn't know. If there was a female version of the Marauders; these girls had to be it. Lily was the brain of most of the girl's pranks. What the girl's pranks lacked in daring and sheer passion for revenge (or humiliation in Snape's case,) they made up for in brilliance. And, the girls rarely ever got caught.
"Good morning, Remus, those sleepyheads still asleep?" Lily asked when she saw Remus. "No, I didn't bother to wake them, its too early in the morning to be hexed," he replied with a laugh. Lily was James's girlfriend and she knew how he liked to sleep in. She was a natural beauty with long, blonde, hair and bright emerald green eyes. Her easy going laugh and charming smile hid a girl with a temper to be feared. Lily was usually calm and happy but, when she got upset, her temper would flare up with such force, her face usually matched her hair. At the moment, she was curled up in front of the fire in an armchair, reading a her Charms textbook. Lily was quite good at Charms, (as it was her favorite subject.)
She looked pretty absorbed in her book so Remus decided to try to talk to Arabella. He plopped down on the couch beside her as she mumbled a greeting with out even looking up from her book. "Mornin, Bella, what are you reading?" he asked. "Studyin' for a stupid Potions test." she replied with a grunt. Everyone knew Bella wasn't a morning person and she was even more likely to be grumpy while studying for a test in her least favorite subject. Remus wanted to be safe so he went over to talk to Deyna (or at least try.)
She was thoroughly absorbed in polishing her broom. Deyna was Sirius's girlfriend (on & off again) and she was as much of a Quidditch freak as he was. They were both on the Gryffindoor team. She was the Seeker and Sirius was a Beater. With her cropped auburn hair and light green-gold eyes full of mischief, Deyna looked like a lively little sprite always ready to cause trouble. Her bubbly personality and free spirit kept Sirius on his toes. "Hey Deyna, whats up?" Remus asked as he walked over to the footstool where Deyna was perched. "Oh hey Remus, whats wrong?" Deyna's usually bright eyes darkened when she saw Remus. She was a wiz at Divination (which was a surprise since she was very tomboyish and scatterbrained. ) She could usually tell what was wrong with somebody just by looking at them. "Oh, its nothing," Remus sighed with a wave of his hand. "Its just that I had this really weird dream last night and i just cant get my mind off it but...." "Oh goody, dreams are my specialty" Deyna said as she laid her broom aside and leaned in closer. "Now," she whispered, "tell me ALL about it."
"Well, i cant remember much," Remus began, "but there was this beautiful girl, but she was hurt somehow. She had these huge scars and welts all over her body. And there was this pond, but it wasnt an ordinary pond, it glowed!
She stepped in the water, and then she was floating in mid-air!" Remus was getting excited now, waving his arms about and talking a mile a minute. "This music started playing, it was so...so...sad and eerie. She was lowered down into the water and it must have done something to her, because, when she got out, she was healed! There was something about her eyes...they seemed endless like they went on forvever. She was smiling but she had this distant look in her eyes. Well, it was almost like she was lonely. She needed something but she didnt know where to find it or how to get it. I felt so sorry for her and I wanted to help but i couldn't. When I woke up, i had this awful feeling that i should have helped her but i couldnt!" Remus slumped in the chair and gave a dejected sigh.
Deyna was staring at Remus with a blank look on her face. She could usually decipher dreams, even the foggiest,but this one totally left her in the dark, except for a feeling that this was going to change Remus's life forever. He was going to have to figure this out on his own. Deyna turned to Remus and sighed. "I don't know, Remus. I can't see anything about it. All i know is that is that I cant help you with this. You are going to have to do it by yourself."
