-Meeting Sirius-
The days went by fast since everyone's nerves were still on high. Harry found out that the last task would be a maze on the quidditch field with the Triwizard cup in the center, but he didn't tell all his friends.
Liz had finally been released from the hospital wing. She got to go to the task but she had to stay with Madam Pomfrey the whole time. She was forced to be escorted everywhere by Legolas, but she wasn't complaining. Voron had visited her everyday in the hospital. He had been very worried and tried to be with her all the time. Legolas often walked in on them kissing when he took her to class. He had been asked to accompany Liz to class to make sure everything was okay.
Saira hadn't talked to Legolas in awhile and really missed him. Of course she spent a lot of time with Ita, which took her mind off of him for that time.
During Charms, Ita and Saira were paired up. It was not one of her best classes.
"No, you're doing it all wrong" Ita laughed at Saira's many attempts.
"Why cant I just use my hand?' she asked
"You're in the wizarding world now. It takes some getting used to," he said
"I give up"
"Oh, no you don't. Come here" he grabbed her hand to help her guide it. "Now" he said moving her hand
However the bell rang before she could try.
"Hey, want to go take a walk?" Ita asked her after class
"I'd love to but.."
"But what?"
"I'm afraid if I tell you you'll get so just meet me later"
"Ok?" he said confused
"Meet me in the common room later. I have to go take care of something that's been bugging me"
"Ok, see you later" Ita said giving her a kiss on the cheek
"Bye" Ita left in the opposite direction. Saira on the other hand headed to Legolas' room.
It took Saira a few minutes to remember where the right hall was where the portrait of the girl holding a bouquet of flowers was.
"Open" she said, but it didn't move
"He changed it," the girl said
"Ok, um, can you give me a hint?'
"Well, I'm not supposed to, but you're the Saira girl so sure. It's an Elven place"
"Middle-Earth or Hyrule?"
"Middle-Earth"
"Ok, um, Lothlorien?" It stayed shut, "No? All right. Rivendell?" Nothing. "Oh, I know. Mirkwood" And the door swung open
There was a small hall then his room. Legolas was there so Saira decided to wait. She sat down in a hair by his desk. Saira noticed a letter form Galadriel on his desk.
Saira allowed her curiosity to take over and she picked it up.
'Vedui Legolas' she read aloud. It continued in Elvish but she translated it to English as she read. 'I'm afraid I bear discouraging news. Sairalinde is in grave danger. It is now known throughout the worlds that she is at Hogwarts. Many guilds have been spotted in Hyrule. They could leave at any time. Keep your guard up. No harm must come to the Seer. Lady Galadriel of the Galadhrim realm'
"Saira" Legolas called, "I've been looking everywhere for you"
Without thinking Saira ran to him. He held her close although he didn't know why.
"Saira, what is it?"
"I missed you" He pulled her back so he could look at her
"I haven't left"
"But I go mad for something stupid and I didn't have anyone I could relate to"
"Saira, I told you I wasn't going anywhere"
"But now the guilds--"
"I will protect you Saira. I'd die for you just like you did for me"
"What?" Legolas seemed to realize he'd said too much.
Before he could respond Saira broke away in a vision. She saw the woman with amethyst eyes from the first day she met Legolas. She was on a horse with him in front. She felt her arms tighten as the horse jumped. She fell off the back and Legolas jumped down to help her. A band of orcs came up and drew their bows. Then it ended abruptly.
He sat her down in a chair. "It really was me. They're memories. Not really visions"
She told Legolas what she saw before asking, "How long ago was that?"
"Not long. Fifty years at the most"
"Why am I remembering a past relationship?"
"I wish I knew"
"I gotta go" Saira got up abruptly and started to leave.
"Saira. Don't let my past feelings interfere with the feelings you have now"
"Past feelings? Look, how you feel is not what I'm worried about"
"Then what are you worried about? I hate how we start talking and we end up yelling at one another"
"I'm worried.about Link" Saira lied, "He's still not back from the Fire Temple"
"He'll be fine"
"I know. Do you mind if I stay here awhile?"
"Not at all. I'll go bring us some dinner"
"Ok, if you see Ita, tell him I'll see him tomorrow. I don't want to leave until everyone goes to bed."
"I will"
He left. Saira was fighting with herself. She'd never loved anyone except Link in this life but now so many elements were coming together. There was Ita, whom she thought she loved. But then there was Legolas.whom she knew she loved. Not only in the past but here as well.
Saira heard the door open but there's no way Legolas could be back so soon. She jumped beside the bed
"Legolas?" It was Dumbledore
Saira emerged. "It's only me Professor. Legolas left to get food"
"Hello, Saira. I'm not surprised to see you here"
"Not surprised, sir?"
"I may be old, but I'm not blind yet."
"I'm not sure I follow," she said
"You're probably too young to understand"
Saira scoffed
"Did I say something offensive?" Dumbledore asked
"I'm sorry, I don't mean to be rude. Sir, you say I'm too young to understand, but yet I'm old enough to have a 'destiny'"
"Destinies are quite different. You could be 1 or 100 to have a destiny, but that doesn't mean you'll understand"
"Sir, may I ask you something?"
"Did I die 50 years ago to save Legolas?"
"Unfortunately I cant be the one to divulge information about a dear friend"
"I've tried asking him but he avoids the topic"
"Saira, you of all people should know the emotions of elves. When they hurt, they hurt for a long time. Only time heals a broken heart and elves have all the time in the world"
"I'm bac-"
Legolas entered carrying an empty tray.
"Hello Albus"
"Hello, I came for a chat but it seems I interrupt"
"Not at all" Saira said
"I have things to attend to I'm afraid. Be sure you get to bed on time Saira" And with that, Dumbledore left.
"Hungry?" Legolas asked
"Not really"
"You should eat something. Visions take a lot out of you'
"I know. Legolas, if I ask you some questions, do you promise to answer truthfully"
"Yes, of course"
"Mind you, I want answers. You should know I deserve some by now," Saira said.
"I give you my word"
"Alright. Where was it?"
Legolas hesitated. He wasn't expecting questions like these. "Middle- Earth" he said finally.
"What was her name?"
Legolas was very reluctant to speak
"Saira, must we talk about this?" he said sadly
"I wouldn't, but I would rather hear it from you directly than see it in a vision, and if we really were in love I think you of all people should tell me"
Legolas didn't argue, "Her name was Serenity"
"Elf?"
"Yes, a Hylian like yourself. She had prophetic dreams, although dream visions are much different and not painful."
"Why were you running?"
"Someone, to this day I don't know who, sent assassins after me. They tried to kidnap her but I wasn't going to let that happen. We tried to escape. I'm guessing you saw part of what happened in your vision."
"The last I saw was the orcs drawing their bows"
"We fought back but while I was fighting, a stray orc fired from afar. Serenity saw it coming and jumped in front of me"
"So, technically, I did die for you"
"I was devastated, but when it was foretold that her soul would return in the body of a youth that would rid the worlds of the final darkness. She would be the sister of the Hero of Time and would be unknown to the world until his return"
"Did you love her?"
"More than I thought possible"
"I'm sorry you lost her"
"I don't think I did," he said staring straight into Saira's eyes.
They talked for a while and Saira ended up falling asleep.
"Wake up" he said
"Huh?"
"You should go back"
"Oh.. yeah"
Legolas took Saira back to Gryffindor Tower.
Before he left, she asked, "When the school year ends, where am I going to stay? I can't go back to Hyrule"
"You can either stay at Lothlorien in the protection of Galadriel or in Mirkwood with me"
Saira smiled and didn't answer. When she walked in, Harry Ron and Hermione were still up. They weren't talking to each other though; they were talking to a head floating in the fireplace. But Saira recognized who it was from a vision she had.
"Bloody hell. Sirius Black"
They all turned quicker than the blink of an eye and looked at Saira.
"S-Saira, I-I thought you were staying with Legolas?" Hermione stuttered
"No, I accidentally fell asleep there."
"Harry" said Sirius, "Should I go?"
"No, it's alright" Harry answered, "Saira, uh--"
"I didn't know you guys could do that." Saira said curious
"Saira, meet Sirius."
"Is that your full name?" Sirius asked Saira
"No, its short for Sairalinde"
"Truly?" He'd obviously been informed about the Seer
"Let me guess. You're about to say something along the lines of 'Not the Sairalinde. The girl with visions foretold to unleash the power of the treasures and save the worlds'?"
"Yes, something like that"
"You're Sirius Black, right? Accused murderer?"
"Still innocent"
"How do you know about him?" Ron asked
"I had a vision once and also Legolas filled me in on a lot tonight."
"Legolas Greenleaf?" Sirius asked
"The one and only" Saira answered
"Uh-oh. The family is home"
"Go!" Harry hissed to Sirius
Sirius' face was engulfed in flames and disappeared with a pop.
"Saira--" Harry started
"Don't worry Harry, I wont tell anyone"
"You know he's innocent"
"No, but I could easily find out. But I've had enough visions today."
Harry was relieved.
"Ok, that's it!" Hermione said suddenly
"What?" Saira, Harry and Ron said together
"Look, I've put up with this long enough. I don't buy that you have visions," she said, "Don't you remember what Dumbledore said. Time can be manipulated and is almost impossible to predict"
That hit a nerve with Saira
"Alright, you can think that if you want to, but until you have head- splitting visions just by touching someone you don't have an opinion!"
Hermione rolled her eyes
"You think I chose to See things?! I'm not Professor Trelawney who puts on a charade. If I really wanted to, I could tell everything that would happen to you, but it'd kill me before I could tell you!"
Harry put his hand on her shoulder to calm her down but all it did was spark yet another vision this evening.
She saw the maze on the quidditch field. She saw Harry passing a mist that made his world flip upside-down. She saw blast-ended skrewts, and dementors that drained her energy just to think of them. She saw a sphinx then a giant spider and finally a cup in the middle. Cedric was there too. They both grabbed the sup and were transported to a graveyard. Saira felt an eerie presence and turned to face the snake-like man before it ended.
"Oh, c'mon, she's putting on an act" Hermione insisted but Harry and Ron weren't listening. They were helping Saira sit down
"Harry, I know you're not really supposed to tell us, but what's your third task?" Saira asked anxiously.
"We have to get through a maze"
"I know what you have to face"
"What?"
"There will be all kinds of creatures in there. I saw some of Hagrid's skrewts, a dementor and a mist that would flip everything. Take a step and it will be right again. But whatever you do, don't take the cup!"
"What? If he doesn't, he'll lose," Ron said
"I know but if he touches t, evil will come. I saw it. There was that man."
"Harry, she's lying" Hermione said
Saira glared at Hermione and cursed at her in Elvish before she stormed off to the dorm. She changed quickly and lied in be unable to sleep.
Liz heard Saira storm in but didn't know whether she should say anything or not.
She finally did because it's in her nature, "Saira, you awake?"
"Yeah"
"You ok?"
"Not really' Saira had an echo of anger in her voice
Liz sat up, "Do you want to talk?"
"Not really"
"Liar"
"I know"
"You'll end up telling me sooner or later so why don't you just tell me now?"
"I'lambe tel' Edalie" -Speak Elvish-
"Tereva"
They spoke in Elvish so that if someone were listening they wouldn't understand.
"It's Hermione" Saira said
"What'd she do?"
"Well, you believe me about my visions don't you?"
"Say no more. Everyone knows Hermione doesn't hold with fortune- telling"
'Yes, well she accused me of lying when I had a visions and now I'm afraid Harry's in danger"
"Harry? Why?"
"In my vision I saw him grabbing the cup and being transported to a graveyard"
"Are you sure it's not part of the task?" Liz asked
"I doubt it but maybe. I told Harry, but Hermione said I was lying so I don't think he believes me"
"Well, Hermione hates to be wrong"
"Yeah, I noticed"
"So, why are you back so late?"
"I fell asleep in Legolas' room"
Liz's eyes got real big.
"You fell asleep in his room?" she repeated
"I went to go see him to get back on good terms since we hadn't been talking. We ended talking for a while and I fell asleep. He woke me up and I came back"
"You're so lucky. You've got him protecting you"
"And you"
"Yes, but only because I got hurt"
"Do you want me to introduce you properly?"
"I don't know. I don't want Voron to get jealous"
"Of a 500 year old elf?"
"It's possible"
Liz didn't want to tell Saira that Ita was extremely jealous of how Saira eyed Legolas. He used to be very outspoken but had grown quiet since Saira came.
"I could tell you something that would probably make you think I'm even more lucky," Saira said
"What could you possibly say that could do that?"
"In a past life we were together"
"Are you serious?" And Liz's eyes got bigger
"No lie. I was talking to him today and found out"
"Well, what happened? Elves live forever"
Saira lowered her head. "She died."
"You died?"
"Not necessarily me, but my soul."
"He's probably still heartbroken"
"More than you know"
"It's kind of romantic"
"What is?"
"The fact that he lost you in a past life is why he's so intent on protecting you in this one"
"I guess" Saira didn't meet Liz's eyes though.
"There's something else isn't there?'
"What? No"
"Did they love each other?"
"His exact words were, 'More than I thought possible'"
"Does she still love him?" Liz said slipping in that she meant Saira
"Yes" Saira said without thinking, "I mean no. It wasn't really me" She began speaking rapidly, "Anyway, it I did or do, I'm 14 and he's not and plus there's Ita"
"Do you love Ita?"
"I don't know" Saira said falling on face first on her pillow
Hermione walked in and Saira muttered, "Auta miquela deadra" -Go kiss a Redead-
Hermione paused but went straight to bed. Liz coughed to cover her laughs. Then they continued in Elvish.
"What a know it all?" Saira said
"She's probably just jealous"
"Why?"
"Oh, I could think of a few at the top of my head" Liz said sarcastically counting on her fingers. "When you got here, you had all of Harry's attention along with many others. You have a legendary, loves you elf here to protect you and you're smarter than her"
"Alright, alright. Point made"
"So where are you going for the summer? I mean you're not going back to Hyrule"
'No, the farther away I am, the safer I am. That's why the Prince of Mirkwood has invited me to stay. But I must say that I'm not sure whether I should accept" Saira said playfully
Liz started laughing quietly
"What about you?" Saira asked
"I live in Rivendell. My father is a good friend to Lord Elrond. You should come visit"
"I doubt I can"
"Why?"
"And leave the protection of the Prince" she said jokingly, "You must be daft. But seriously, he probably wont let me leave until this is all over"
"Well, I'll have to go there then"
"That'd be great. Most elves don't consider you mature until you're about 100 so it'll be nice to have someone immature with me"
"Yeah, well, I'm getting tired so can we finish tomorrow?"
"Sure. Quel du" -Good night-
"Quel du"
They both went to sleep but Saira kept having the same dream over and over again. She was with Legolas in her past life and kept reliving it to the point where her visions stopped. However the next morning she woke up and didn't remember a thing.
The days went by fast since everyone's nerves were still on high. Harry found out that the last task would be a maze on the quidditch field with the Triwizard cup in the center, but he didn't tell all his friends.

They spoke in Elvish so that if someone were listening they wouldn't understand.
"It's Hermione" Saira said
"What'd she do?"
"Well, you believe me about my visions don't you?"
"Say no more. Everyone knows Hermione doesn't hold with fortune- telling"
'Yes, well she accused me of lying when I had a visions and now I'm afraid Harry's in danger"
"Harry? Why?"
"In my vision I saw him grabbing the cup and being transported to a graveyard"
"Are you sure it's not part of the task?" Liz asked
"I doubt it but maybe. I told Harry, but Hermione said I was lying so I don't think he believes me"
"Well, Hermione hates to be wrong"
"Yeah, I noticed"
"So, why are you back so late?"
"I fell asleep in Legolas' room"
Liz's eyes got real big.
"You fell asleep in his room?" she repeated
"I went to go see him to get back on good terms since we hadn't been talking. We ended talking for a while and I fell asleep. He woke me up and I came back"
"You're so lucky. You've got him protecting you"
"And you"
"Yes, but only because I got hurt"
"Do you want me to introduce you properly?"
"I don't know. I don't want Voron to get jealous"
"Of a 500 year old elf?"
"It's possible"
Liz didn't want to tell Saira that Ita was extremely jealous of how Saira eyed Legolas. He used to be very outspoken but had grown quiet since Saira came.
"I could tell you something that would probably make you think I'm even more lucky," Saira said
"What could you possibly say that could do that?"
"In a past life we were together"
"Are you serious?" And Liz's eyes got bigger
"No lie. I was talking to him today and found out"
"Well, what happened? Elves live forever"
Saira lowered her head. "She died."
"You died?"
"Not necessarily me, but my soul."
"He's probably still heartbroken"
"More than you know"
"It's kind of romantic"
"What is?"
"The fact that he lost you in a past life is why he's so intent on protecting you in this one"
"I guess" Saira didn't meet Liz's eyes though.
"There's something else isn't there?'
"What? No"
"Did they love each other?"
"His exact words were, 'More than I thought possible'"
"Does she still love him?" Liz said slipping in that she meant Saira
"Yes" Saira said without thinking, "I mean no. It wasn't really me" She began speaking rapidly, "Anyway, it I did or do, I'm 14 and he's not and plus there's Ita"
"Do you love Ita?"
"I don't know" Saira said falling on face first on her pillow
Hermione walked in and Saira muttered, "Auta miquela deadra" -Go kiss a Redead-
Hermione paused but went straight to bed. Liz coughed to cover her laughs. Then they continued in Elvish.
"What a know it all?" Saira said
"She's probably just jealous"
"Why?"
"Oh, I could think of a few at the top of my head" Liz said sarcastically counting on her fingers. "When you got here, you had all of Harry's attention along with many others. You have a legendary, loves you elf here to protect you and you're smarter than her"
"Alright, alright. Point made"
"So where are you going for the summer? I mean you're not going back to Hyrule"
'No, the farther away I am, the safer I am. That's why the Prince of Mirkwood has invited me to stay. But I must say that I'm not sure whether I should accept" Saira said playfully
Liz started laughing quietly
"What about you?" Saira asked
"I live in Rivendell. My father is a good friend to Lord Elrond. You should come visit"
"I doubt I can"
"Why?"
"And leave the protection of the Prince" she said jokingly, "You must be daft. But seriously, he probably wont let me leave until this is all over"
"Well, I'll have to go there then"
"That'd be great. Most elves don't consider you mature until you're about 100 so it'll be nice to have someone immature with me"
"Yeah, well, I'm getting tired so can we finish tomorrow?"
"Sure. Quel du" -Good night-
"Quel du"
They both went to sleep but Saira kept having the same dream over and over again. She was with Legolas in her past life and kept reliving it to the point where her visions stopped. However the next morning she woke up and didn't remember a thing.
