PKatie went on through her other lessons for the day,
potions and charms. She wanted to sit by Alyssa in potions, but she didn't
for two reasons. One being the fact that Snape was head of the Slytherin
house and seeing a Gryffindor and a Slytherin sitting togething in potions,
well, he wouldn't aprove of it, and Alyssa would never want to happen.
Also, Lyss seemed to sit a bit too close to Professor Snape for Katie's
liking. So Katie took a seat in the back of the dungon, next to
Fred./P
PPotions was boring as usual for Katie. It was the beginning of another year of mutual dislike between her and Professor Snape. Katie thought that he might have eased up on her, since her best friend was in Slytherin, but then she remembered that this was Snape./P
PThe week went by and nothing unual happened until that Saturday. It was breakfast, and Rachel got an owl. That wasn't unusual, but what it said was./P
PRachel,/P
PYou must come home as soon as possible. I need you to be here urgently. Do not bring Katie along with you./P

PRachel showed Katie the owl.BR'Whats this all about?' Katie asked. BR'I don't know.' Rachel repliedBRKatie didn't believe her. 'Raye, I'm scared for you. This sounds like that he might' Katie stopped in mid-sentance.BR'Katie, nothings going to happen to me. I'll be fine. Don't worry. I'll be back before you know it.'BRKatie hugged her baby sister. 'Be careful. And come back as soon as you can. Bring Liberty along with you so that you can send me an owl as soon as you get home, okay?'BR'I will. Bye Kate.' She said as she walked out of the Great Hall.BR'Bye Rachel.' Katie said softly. '/P
PKatie didn't know what to do. She was scared for Rachel. What if he hit her? Because if it was something that important, shouldn't she know about it also? But Rachel was going to be beat, she just knew it. Katie prayed and hoped that it wouldn't happen./P
PKatie seemed dead for the rest of the day. She didn't interact with anyone else in her house, or outside of her house for that matter, at all. Nothing could make Katie happy at the time. Well, knowing that Rachel was back and okay would make her happy, but Rachel was gone now. /P
PIt was Sunday and Katie still hadn't heard from Rachel. She sat in a red chair facing the fireplace all day long. Lots of people tried to make Katie happy, but no matter how hard they tried, Katie couldn't break a smile. Not now anyways./P

PKatie sat alone in the dark Common Room, waiting nervously. And then, at about 12:30 am, she saw the portrait hole open. It was Rachel. Katie jumped up from her chair and raced over to Rachel./P
P'Rachel!' she said, feeling better and hugging her tight.BRRachel broke into tears.BR'Oh my God Rachel.' Katie said, holding her tighter.BRRachel broke away from Katie. 'Look what happened!' she said as she pulled up her sleaves.BR'What about your...' she said, pointing to her eye.BR'Oh, you can tell? I tried using tons of concealer, powder, and eye shadow on it.'BR'Was it him?' Katie said looking worried. 'Was it father?'BRRachel didn't say anything, but she just started bawling. Katie hugged Rachel tight.BRThis is exactly what Katie knew would happen. 'Why the hell did I let her go there alone?' she thought to herself. 'I knew this would happen...I just knew it.'/P
