PKatie raced up to
the Gryffindor tower. She was beaming. Nobody, not even Professor Snape,
could stop her from being so happy. When Katie reached the portrait, she
almost yelled the password, Zephyr, because of her good mood./P
PKatie raced up the steps as fast as she could. All the way up and three doors down the hall to her dorm. Rachel was already asleep, but since it was about 1 AM, Alicia, Ang, and Emma were also asleep. Katie pulled her wand out of her pocket and pointed it at Rachel. 'ITotoralis Sedisict/I' she whispered. The cuts magically faded away. Her bruises were now gone. Even Rachel's eye, which had a variety of shades of purple around it, now looked as nothing had ever happened. Katie looked down at her baby sister, smiling. She ran her hand through Rachel's stringy blonde hair. Now this was the way she wanted to start her 7th year at Hogwarts./P

PThree days passed and Friday came. Rachel got another owl. Except this time it was signed from their mother. Katie took the letter from Rachel and examined it. /P
P'This isn't mum's hand writing.' She saidBR'Oh Kate, she must have written it quickly.' Rachel replied. BR'But look at this. There are just dots over the I's.not circles. And the loops on the Y's and G's aren't right. They're not right at all.' BR"Kate, relax. It's nothing. Stop making a big deal out of nothing. Mum must have been in a hurry.'BR'Well why didn't she ask me to come?' Katie questioned. BRRachel tried to convince Katie that things would be fine. 'You really want to know why mum didn't say for you to come?'BRKatie nodded BR"We're working on a surprise for your 18th birthday. We're fixing up the guest house for you.' She lied. 'Happy birthday. Hope you're happy now.' She snapped. /P
PKatie didn't know what to say. She believed Rachel, and she felt terrible./P
PRachel was lying through this whole thing. She hated lying to her sister, but Rachel was scared to tell Katie the truth. She knew what was really going to happen. She knew that the owl really was not from her mom. But Rachel couldn't tell. She didn't want Kate to worry any more then she had to./P
PKatie thought about this all day in her classes. Alyssa noticed in their first class. Before they walked into the greenhouse for Herbology, she pulled Katie off to the side. /P
P'Kate, what's wrong?'BR'Nothing Lyssy.' Katie lied.BRAlyssa laughed slightly. 'Kate, you can't lie to me. Now tell me, what's wrong.'BR'Rachel got another owl.' She replied as she walked into the greenhouse./P
PThen she sat down by Emma. Em asked her the same question, but Katie didn't reply. She saw what happened at breakfast, and she assumed that that is what Katie was thinking about. Fred shot her smiles from across the room, trying to cheer Katie up, but it didn't help. /P
PShe didn't even pay attention in class that day. (She later found out that they were learning about the multiple uses of Gillyweed.) She spent the whole hour thinking about Rachel. 'Rachel would be sitting in divinitaion right now.' She thought to herself. 'Maybe Trelawney would have some vision. An actual one for once. Telling Rachel not to go. I mean, she's just going to help mum with my room, but what if father does something.'/P
(A/N: sad, I know.please tell me what you think! Thank you! Oh and by the way, I made up the spell 'Totoralis Sedisict' I have no clue what it means and I totally made it up. So no leaving notes saying 'that's not the right spell' or something,,because I know. _
