Authors note: somebody leaves a dress, and her mothers identity begins to become unravelled.
The weeks had flown by, classes were taken (Celestrial was top of them all), flying lessons were taught and friends were made. And now it was nearly halloween, and the Halloween ball that had been a tradition for 13 years now. The girls in the Gryffindor (and any other tower) dorm were becoming excited over the upcoming ball. All except Celestrial, who's claimed that she didn't have a dress to wear and therefore wouldn't be attending the ball. Unfortunately Jessica Jones and Martini Brown weren't going to take no for an answer, and neither was the voice in her head.
'You have to go to the ball dear' it would say.
"I'm not going," Celestrial would argue back "I don't have a dress."
'I will find you one,' the voice finally answered.
It was a dream Celestrial was sure of it. She was in front of the mirror, except it wasn't her. It was a woman, Celestrial was sure of it, the face and body was blurry and unrecognisable, but Celestrial just knew. The woman was humming and smoothing her hair down, Celestrial could tell that she was happy, with the happy power that was radiating from the woman. The only thing that Celestrial could make out was the dress, it was white and thin with a sort of veil at the top. A wedding dress???? What was she seeing, what was she being shown??? And then there was another woman in the room.
"Why are you doing this?" demanded the second woman "you know it's wrong, you know how dangerous this could be."
"I know," whispered the woman in the white dress "but this has been going on for long enough."
"I can't let you do this, what could happen to you if you succeed?" demanded the other woman "what's going to happen to him if you get caught?"
"I don't know," said the first woman "but if he's willing that's just something we have to work through, isn't it?"
"You're insane," said the other woman "you've let this lust go to your head."
"This isn't lust, this is love," she hissed "and you should know, after all you're pregnant yourself."
"I'm also married," said the second woman.
"That doesn't matter," said the other woman.
"Of course it does, especially in this situation," said the second woman "especially with what could be done to you. Please?"
"Tonight he will be mine."
Celestrial awoke, her head in her hands, confused about what the dream had been.
'I had to show you that dear," said the voice.
"Why? Why is that so important to me?" asked Celestrial.
'It is the first part to the puzzle my dear," said the voice.
"The first part to the …"began Celestrial "one of them was my mother!! Which one???"
'You know the rules," whispered the voice 'if you follow your heart you will find the answer you desire. And the dress of your dreams.'
"The dress, it's here, in Hogwarts???" demanded Celestrial "and if I work out what the first part of this puzzle is, you'll let me have it???"
'You are cleverer than they give you credit for.'
