Nell looked at Dragon with puffy eyes and gasped loudly, "Dragon, LOOK!" the flaming haired woman yelled at the platinum blond girl upon seeing her. Dragon looked curious at first, but then directed a questioning gaze at her pale hands. Her gaze soon turned to surprise and shock, and she exhaled a breath upon seeing her hands. They were becoming unmaterial, translucid, the pale floor underneath her could be easily seen through her hands, the numerous machinery behind her could be examined with accuracy has her flesh became more and more transparent. She looked like a ghost, transparent, materialess, and horror stricken features drawn on her face, "what's going on?!" she asked alarmed. The other two observed at her, their gazes staring with a look of impotence, they ignored what was going on and much less what to do. Dragon felt tears of terror falling down their cheeks, drops of water and salt that fell with a silet tip tap against the pale, marble floor, tiny crystals that reflected the fear of the woman like tiny stars speaking legends on the silent skies.
Dragon pointed at Rusko and Nell, "LOOK AT YOURSELF!" she yelled with a high pitched voice. Nell and Rusko emmited a short yell upon seeing their bodies vanishing as well, their flesh becoming something unmaterial, their sensitive beings vanishing into something astral, something spiritual, thoughts without body. The three of them began to focus on their fisical bodies, trying to recover their full material beings, attempting not to vanish into forgetting. A pair of strong hands grabbed Dragon from the shoulders and shook her lightly, "NO! Dont fight it or you'll get stucked into past forever" the most handsome and melodic voice she had ever heard echoed in her ears. The silver haired woman turned around to stare into the intense blue eyes of the most handsome man she had ever seen, his flaming strans od hair fell over his cheek and a few shorter strans stood over his eyes. His skin, although slightly pale like usual in all flaming haired, was slightly tanned, and his cheeks were speckled, which made his innocent looking features look like a young child in an adult body. His body, he was musculous and very atractive, his body was built perfectly, not too musculous but rather thin with harddened muscles which made him look very very cute. Dragon gasped loudly, she had recognized him, he was laying on the bed right now, dead, killed by a car accident. George covered her mouth before she got to freak at him, "NO, dont yell, I'm a spirit ok, but I wont hurt you" he explained quickly before she got to get rid of him. Dragon glared at him and pushed his hand aside, "excuse me? I was not gonna scream, I was gonna ask you if you werent dead and WHY in the name of Dumbledore are we vanishing?" she explained in a rather enraged and offended voice.
George laughed loudly and stared at her closely, "Malfoy, you are Draco's daughter, am I right?" he asked smiling dreamily as if remembering times that would never return. Dragon stared at a panicked Nell and a very calm looking Rusko, "he has the integrity of a wolf" thought Dragon with suspicion arising into her mind. The Werewolf stared back at George and nodded, "indeed, but answer to me, why are we vanishing?" she asked him staring down at herself and seeing that each second that passed she was becoming more and more transparent. George placed an spiritual hand on the girl's shoulder, "this is the last page of the diary, you are simply returning to your time, if you fight against it you might teleport here and stay trapped in this time which is not yours, how would you tell Aki that she is expecting a baby that is you, how much? 14 or 15 years older?" George explained gesticulating a lot with his hand. Dragon nodded, she was nearly invisible, "I see, so we will just vanish and get to our time?" she asked much more calm. George nodded with a smile and stared at them as they had become nothing but a thin film of spirit matter. A thought clicked in Dragon's mind, "George! How do you know my parents?" she asked quickly. George smiled at her and waved a hand, "I was..." he started but never got to finish his sentence, or the three people never got to hear for they suddenly appeared, completely material, on Dragon's large bedroom.
Nell let herself fall back against the rugged floor, "what the hell was that?" she commented sighing content to be back into her time. Dragon looked at her thoughtfully and stared cautiously at the leather diary in front of them, "the last page of a diary, whoever wrote it chose to stop writting after George's death" Dragon commented staring at it. Suddenly her eyes caught the golden letters, HG, carved on the diary's leather cover, "HG? What the heck does HG mean?" she asked herself picking up the diary from the floor with hesitant hands. Nell glanced over Dragon's shoulder to catch a look of the diary, "hu? Perhaps it means Helena and George?" Nell comented as if it really didnt matter. Rusko sighed and stared at the girl with his amber eyes shinning lovingly "I dont think so" he commented cooling down. Dragon shook her head, "no...it's a name...Helena? did you write the diary?" she asked herself, grey eyes staring at the diary deep in thought. Her eyes glanced back at the flaming haired woman, features cold and serious, "George knew my father and mother, what could be the relation between him and my parents?" she asked not expecting and answer.
Naura raised the powerful head and shrieked upon seeing a large king owl swooping down the window and landing on Dragon's bed. The girl gasped and stood up quickly, rushing torwards the owl, "Jaeth, what are you doing here? Got a letter for me?" she asked the owl picking the parchment that was tied to the female owl's leg. She picked it up and smiled recognizing the elegant scribbles that belonged to none other than James Potter:
Hi Dragon
How are you? I'm fine. I have just returned from my vacation with my cousin Alex, yeah, Fred and Valeria's son, who is our age. Well, you know he was attending the School of Witchcraft and Wizardry Luna de Plata, yeah, that famous school in spain! Well, he might be changing to Hogwarts this year, but I dont know yet, I think Fred wanted him to course his education in Hogwarts, but he just loves Valeria too much to go against her wishes, oh well, enough babbling. Dragon, would you, Nell and Andy want to go for a walk today? I'ts been a couple of weeks and I miss you.
Love Always
James Potter
Dragon smiled at the letter, and smiled at the owl, "stay here for a while, wont take me long Jaeth" she told the large bird that had perched herself on one of the posts of her bed. She ran to her desk and picked a beautiful and elegant, silver griffin feather and started writting an answer to her best friend:
Hi James
Of course I'd love to go out for a walk, it's been long since I dont see your cousin also, say hello to him. Well, how about the same place as always at 7:00, when it's not so hot? Meet ya there, ok? Owl me back in case you cant, ok?
Love Always
Dragon 2M
The girl tied the letter to Jaeth's leg and gave her an owl treat. With that the creature hovered out of the window with elegancy, back to her owner, to deliver the message Dragon had written. Nell smiled knowingly at Dragon and punched her playfully on the arm, "love always? What's between you and the handsome Potter boy?" she asked her hinting a knowledge about the boy's, and possibly the girl's feelings. Dragon blushed deeply, not because she was in love with James but simply because of the affirmation, ok, "wha? Are you nuts? We are best friends nothing else, anyways, you know what I think about dates" Dragon explained staring at her as if thinking about calling the 'kind dudes with the white shirt'. Anyways, Dragon didnt lie dates, she was a tomboy with short, silvery golden hair and always worecamouflage clothes which were generally wide pants and t-shirts with pictures such as the marihuana leaf. Rusko stared at them in silence, he was jeallows, he hated James but at the sime time, when he had spoken to him he had seem like such a legal and good guy, and Dragon, well, she didnt seem like the date type of girl and generally behaved the same way with all her friends. Nell hadnt mean that either, the four of the group (without counting Rusko) generally finishe their letters with 'Love Always' so it really hadnt meant anything, Nell was just playing. Dragon stood up and grabed her small bag where she usually kept her muggle things such as weed, paper, and a box of cigarretes, and other magical things like this tiny, silvery device similar to a muggle cell phone, you just said the name of the person you wanted to contact and inmediatly a hologram of the persona appeared in the receiving device, and viceversa. That was called a Contascope, and she usued it mainly to speak with her parents, "come on guys, let's go to the park" Dragon said walking out of the room, her tone normal, but hinting excitement.
Dragon, Nell, Rusko and Andy, the young, 13 year old, silver haired child (Dragon's brother) spoke animatedly while waiting for James and Alex's appereance. They were sitting on the stone bench that rounded one of the block of houses where they usually met, "hey guys" yelled a familiar, male voice. The four peopleturned to look at the newcomers, but Dragon and Nell's eyes widdened upon analizing the vision in front of them.
To Be Continued...
