It was Christmas morning and the grounds were covered in a thick layer of
snow, Sarina woke when a bouncing red head started to sing Christmas carols
in her left ear. "Gerrof Ginny it's far too early to get up," moaned Sarina
pushing her away and snuggling deeper into the scarlet quilts.
"Oh no you don't miss Redman! It's Christmas morning come on pressie's" The small girl dragged herself from the comforts of her bed to the common room. Hardly anyone was left at school, the Weasleys and Hermione choosing to stay to keep Sarina and Harry Company were amongst the 7 Gryffindor's who remained, according to Draco he was one of three Slytherin's and there were a handful of Ravenclaw's and Hufflepuff's including Justin Finch-Fletchley.
"Merry Christmas you two" beamed Ron who like his sister was filled with unbreakable Christmas cheer. Everyone dived into there piles of goods each of them receiving a Weasley jumper Ginny's was Yellow, Harry's Red, Hermione's blue, Sarina's Violet and Ron's, for the first time in his life was not maroon, but a smoky grey colour that suited him well.
"OOH I've got one last present," Grinned Ginny, Sarina smiled knowingly. Ripping off the paper Ginny's mouth fell open when the dress she had tried on in Madame Malkins flowed through her fingers. "I. who. It's beautiful" she whispered.
"Hey Gin there's a note," Hermione passed her the small envelope with the red and gold writing on the front.
To Miss Virginia Weasley,
I love your eyes, to look into them is like an eternity of Crystal Ocean, the windows to your soul, I could drown in their depths. Your lips that never seem to stop smiling, like the petals of a sweet pink rose I long to feel them brush mine. Your hair like a sirens wild with beauty, it seems to mirror your inner flame, a heart of the purest love and loyalty. To spend one night with you would leave me content for eternity, so please Miss Weasley, beauty beyond compare will you be my witch for a night. Would you allow me to escort you to the winter ball? If the answer is yes then I will be waiting at the entrance to the great hall at 8 o'clock, I will be the one holding the pink rose, I prey that is not all I will have to graze my lips that night.
With hope ??
"Oh my god Ginny that has to be the sweetest thing I've ever heard," moaned Hermione, "I wish someone would do that for me!" No one noticed Ron sneak out of the room and return a moment later with a parcel in his hand.
"Well are you going to meet him Gin?" Sarina urged, the girl nodded still in shock, 'Who could it have been.' She thought.
Sarina opened several presents from her family and friends in America, books from Illiana, on various subjects, Quinn gave her a set of near perfect crystals, she had been complaining about her old set for 200 years. Thea and Ash had banded together to get her a surprise the note inside the Christmas card said it would arrive at breakfast.
The last present she had to open was wrapped in green and silver paper, it was small and no card was attached. She ripped off the paper in delight, a small box lay in her hand, she opened it to reveal a silver dragon on a long chain the dragon's eyes were highly polished amethyst, like her own.
"A Dragon from a Dragon," muttered a voice over her shoulder, Harry stood looking at the pendant with an odd expression on his face, almost recognition.
"Weird!" Ginny was watching them.
"What's weird?" Sarina asked slipping the necklace over her head.
"Just had the strangest feeling of de ja vu" Sarina felt a shiver run down her spine, looking around the room her vision seemed to double as if she were looking at it from two peoples eyes. Her friends sat and talked and laughed, but through this shadowed vision the founders covered their bodies in a filmy layer.
"Sarina" then an echo sounded "Kellandra", "Sarina are you ok?"
"Ginny?" The veil disappeared everyone was looking at her worriedly. "I'm fine just a little tired."
"Ok!" Said Ginny not really believing her, "lets go for breakfast!" The great hall was magnificent the twelve Christmas trees decorated to perfection. There were so few students Dumbledor invited them all to sit at the teacher's table.
No Slytherin's had arrived yet and Sarina made sure the seat beside her was empty, just in case they decided to make an appearance. Half an hour later they showed up, Draco was wearing muggle clothes like most other people in the room, a pair of black jeans and a black polo neck. It contrasted drastically with his pale complexion. Pansy Parkinson gripped his sleeve and attempted to pull him towards the Slytherin table, beside Sarina Ginny stood up, "Hey Draco come over here, we kept you a seat!"
Draco gave a smirk as Pansy grunted in disgust, "well Draco are you joining the Gryffindor scum or sitting with your own kind?" Pansy looked at him with ice in her gaze.
"Bye Pansy!" Draco turned his back to her and took a seat next to Sarina. "Merry Christmas," he gave her a slight smile then looked at the food, "God I'm hungry!" Sarina laughed and shook her head as he piled food on to his plate.

The Shadowy figure paced the room red eyes flashing dangerously, Nagini slithered at his feet. "Wormtail," he hissed.
"Y-Yes Master" Wormtail shuffled in silver arm flashing in the dull candlelight.
"I am expecting someone tonight, I don't want you around when he gets here." His voice was quiet but Wormtail made his way out the room as quickly as he could.
"Hello Voldemort!" the new comers voice was feline, amber eyes with pupils too wide for a human.
"Hunter Redfern," Voldemort stood to greet the Vampire lord, "Do you have the crystal?"
Hunter pulled a clear crystal from the breast pocket of his 18th century jacket, It was cut into a perfect sphere catching the firelight and holding it in the depths of the stone.
"Hello Damien, soon your time will come again," Voldemort smiled making him seem even more dangerous.

Harry sat up with a jolt Scar burning, "he's back" he muttered grabbing a quill and parchment to tell Sirius.
Even more cliff-hangers, yeah love it.
