Ch. 4: The Dream
Harry was standing alone in a void of nothing…all around him, there was nothing but emptiness.
'Hello?' Harry called in vain. Harry's voice carried through the vast area, his voice echoing…
'Hello Harry…' A familiar voice echoed from behind him. Harry jumped and turned around--nothing.
'H-hello?' Harry said again, a bit louder. Harry could've sworn he heard that voice before…
'Harry! Over here…' The same familiar voice called again. Harry followed the voice. He sprinted to what he thought was the source of the voice. He kept running having absolutely no idea what he was doing or where he was going…
After was seemed like minutes, Harry could see a silhouette of a tall figure in the distance.
'Excuse me! Uh…sir!' Harry called out as he ran up to the figure. The man turned around and faced Harry…
Harry gasped.
For in front of him stood his deceased godfather, Sirius Black. He looked the same as Harry remembered him as…
'S--Sirius! Is it really you!?' Harry hugged his godfather, 'Sirius! What…where…I…' Harry was to ecstatic to speak.
'Hey. How is everything?' Sirius replied casually.
'Oh, it's okay…Sirius! How've you been?'
'I'm okay…quite alright. Kinda boring, being dead and all…' Sirius laughed, 'But I must tell you something, so listen up. Voldermort knows where you lot are heading too, Hawaii right? Well, he knows and--' Sirius stopped mid-sentence. He looked behind him, and as he did so, six winged, hooded figures floated toward them. They looked almost like dementors, except they were wearing white hoods and didn't seem to suck all the happiness out of you…
Sirius's turned back to Harry, 'Harry, well, you see I'm not really supposed to be here, but…I overheard some people who said the Dark Lord knows where you are.'
'But how can he! Dumbledore didn't tell anyone that were going to Hawaii!'
'Well, one of the teachers of students must've!' Sirius said, 'but that's not important…the important thing is, He knows where you are and he's coming!' Just then, three of the winged figures got a hold of Sirius and began to pull him away, while the other three pulled Harry back from chasing after Sirius. Harry immediately reached into his robes to pull out his wand, when he discovered he did not have it.
'Prepare yourself Harry!' Sirius cried, 'And please Harry, please don't go looking for trouble! Please, watch yourself! Voldermort has many spies! Promise me Harry!'
Harry looked down at his feet. He never goes looking for trouble…trouble finds him! But before Harry could even open his mouth, the winged angel figures pushed Sirius into a elevator.
The elevator began to moan and started to move upward.
'No! Sirius! Please, don't go!' Harry still wanted to speak with him…he had so many questions to ask him…
'Harry! Please Harry…just take care of yourself, Prepare yourself…please.' Sirius called, as the elevator pushed him up into the heavens…
Harry was released from the winged angel figures grasp and ran after Sirius.
'SIRIUSS!!!'
Harry awoke suddenly, sweat plastered all over his face. He was breathing hard, as though he was actually running after Sirius.
It was all a dream…Just a figure of his imagination…or was it?
"Harry!"
Harry sat up. His scar burned, but Harry ignored it.
"Harry are you…are you alright? You were mumbling about…" It was Ron, he looked around and lowered his voice, "…about Snuffles…"
Harry, remembering his dream, gathered Ron and Hermione around him and told them of his dream.
~…
After Harry finished, Hermione and Ron remained silent.
"Well?" Harry said, encouraging them to talk, say something, anything.
Hermione was first to speak. "This vision, this dream you had…whether it was real of fake, you should listen to Snuffle's plea."
"Yea. Okay…sure." Harry said absentmindedly. Ron and Hermione continued to give Harry their comments about the dream, until Harry got fed up with it and attempted to change the subject.
"How long 'til we get there?"
Hermione checked her watch. "Hmm, about half an hour. Merlin, does time fly!"
"Man, this'll probably be really boring…stuck on a stupid island for a year…"
"Oh Ron, don't think of it like that…think of it as an adventure!" Hermione said happily.
For the rest of the trip, Harry and Ron played muggle chess. (Ron was disappointed about this, but Hermione reminded him that there were muggles on the plane.) Ron was just starting to get used to moving the figures rather than just commanding them, when a lady's voice sounded through the intercom.
"Ladies and gentlemen. We are now directly above Hawaii, the Aloha state. If you take a look to your right, you can see the airport in which we will be at in just a few minutes. At this time, please turn off all electronics, and please return to your seats. Thank You for flying Delta Airlines, and have a nice day."
"We're almost there!" Ron was practically jumping off his seat. "Only," Ron checked his watch, "5 minutes 'til landing! Wait…look! Only 4 more minutes!"
"Ron, take a breath." Harry said, looking out the window. They were descending now. The lush, green mountains and crowded city made this place tropical, yet modern. It had a kind of beauty in it, a calm, mysterious beauty…
They were here…
Here, our adventure begins… Harry thought happily, smiling to himself. Maybe this trip won't be so bad after all…
