CHAPTER 6
- The Crystal Bowl of Light - The days passed and Emma didn't hear anything from Dumbledore and she almost taught that he had forgotten about her when on a Thursday, about halfway trough a potion lesson, were Snape was in terrible mood, Prof McGonogall opened the door saying: " excuse me for interrupting you Mr Snape but Dumbledore has too see miss Dickens immediately... you can take your things with you Miss Dickens." Emma nodded packing her things in her bag and walked out noticing a smirk on both Snape's and Malfoy's faces. Apparently they taught that Emma finally would be punished for the deadly potion. Emma fallowed Prof McGonogall in silence trying to ignore her nervousness, they stopped before a statue and McGonogall said "chocolate frogs" that apparently was a code word because the statue glided to the side and they went in. Emma found herself in a circle round room with pictures on preview headmasters who for the moments was gently sleeping in their frames. McGonogall informed her that "the headmaster will be here in a second" and then marched out. Emma sat down in a chair and had a look around. On a stick sat a Fenix bird which was very beautiful looking. - Oh I see that you have been acquainted with Fawlkes, said a voice from behind Emma, who had got up her chair and went to the bird and was gently
stroking his head.
- Yes, he is beautiful - So he is, you have come in the right time for him now when he his in his
handsomest stage.
- Sir... have you heard anything from the central, I guess it's why I'm
brought here
- Why shouldn't it be, haven't break any rules have you?
- No sir... I haven't... but something happened at potion class last term... - Oh, I already know everything about that, Snape was here some days ago
- And what are you going to do? - Nothing... It was a valuable lesson he taught that day Emma said Dumbledore
with a grin.
- Ok, said Emma smiling too... So what does it say on the paper from the
blood centre?
- It say what I expected it to say
- And what is that? - That you are my Granddaughter... Emma... I have found you... or more exact you
have found me!
- You were searching for me? - Yes and no, I was hoping that somewhere it would be a child, a child from my daughter... I suspected it when I had counted the months when she was gone and come to the conclusion that she had been able to give birth to a child
and adopted it away. But she never told me you existed and I took my
assuming for an old mans humble wish. - I cant believe it... said Emma, Me, little Emma Dickens, never loved by any of her old family members has the great Albus Dumbledore as Grandpa...But do
you want me as your grandchild? I mean, I wouldn't dare to intrude your personal life if you don't want too; the knowing of you is enough for me... - Of course I want you as my grandchild, nothing would make me happier and
your Grandma thinks so too. You are more than welcome in our family...
- Oh tank you sir... I mean grandpa; I can call you that can't I?
- When your friends are near by or we are on ourselves but with the teachers and other pupils here I think it would be best if you called me
sir or Dumbledor.
- Does anybody else know except for grandma?
- Yes I had to tell Minerva, but she won't say anything, and she won't treat you anything different. I have told her it's not the name that counts
is the gift that does...
- Tanks grandpa... now if you excuse me I have to go for lunch before I
starve to death...
- Ok I join you on your way down They got out of the room and walked down towards the Great Hall, they passed many students on their way down who turned their heads at them, just before entering the hall Emma saw Prof Snape walking towards them, had an idea and began speaking to Dumbledore in a faked sad voice...
- Please sir I promise never to do so again I just wanted to give him a
lesson, it was not evil meant, she looked up to Dumbledore who looked puzzled for a second and then understood what she was doing and pretended
to go weak on her. - Ok then Emma but if I hear that it has happening again I will expel you
from Hogwarts. - Tank you sir said Emma striking of a false tear from her cheek and walked
off, and somehow she new without looking back that Dumbledore smiled... She reached the table were Harry and the others already sat. They looked at her with excitement in their eyes and Emma looked at them; smiled happily and nodded to confirm their suspicions and then she felt someone taking her hand holding it under the table... it was Harry, she looked at him smiling and pressed his hand gently before letting go; tending to her meal. The same evening she sat in the sofa by the fire reading a book with Hermione on her side. Just finishing the chapter about ancient spells and how to cast them the last in the common room left and they were only the four left. Hermione moved herself as Harry sat down besides Emma giving her a gentle kiss and then asking:
- So how do you feel about having Dumbledore as grandpa? - It feels different, but he really is marvellous. We gave a performance before, with Snape nearby, were I pleaded for mercy that he wouldn't expel
me from Hogwarts and Snape swallowed it, hair and all. Emma said with a
giggle
- You are bad, very bad, said Harry but couldn't keep his face and soon
they all laughed. Emma hadn't felt this happy in a long time, going up to the rooms they talked about the next day and how they would spent the afternoon off, they only had transfiguration with Mcgonogall witch was an easy subject. Saying goodnight to each other, witch for Emma and Harry meant another hug and kiss, the girls went to their room and the boys to theirs. When Harry and Ron came in, Hedwig had come back and had a letter on her leg from Sirius. Ron got exited and they sat down on Harry's bed reading it:
Dear Harry You are not alone to had have this problem, your father had it to, as you probably know, your father saved your mom from a lost buldger at a quidditch game against Slytherin, in his fifth year. He got knocked off his broom and fell about 10 feet to the ground. Your mom later visited him at the hospital wing to tank him and they really hit things off, becoming good friends. They grew closer to each other and just before term ended he asked me what to do because he liked her very much but didn't know if she liked him back. I said to him that he should speak to her about it, and he did... pulling her away from the common room to an empty class room that still exits, and you all know what happened, they got together... never left each others side, their love were very deep Harry. And a year after finishing school they got married. Do like your father Harry and I think it will be fine. As for the scores on your first quidditch match I already knew, how I won't tell you, but say to Ron that he is an excellent flyer much repelling to his own dad. Take care and let me now if anything happens between you two
Love Sirius - So, I should talk to Hermione about I feel, I could have figure it out on my own, you know, but it was good to her it from somebody else... Said Ron
- So you will talk to her, asked Harry
- Yes, when I got time, some time next week or month or year...
- Oh no, you will talk to her tomorrow or I will tell her...
- You wouldn't dare...
- Try me...
- Ok, ok I will do it, but if she laughs at me you'll be sorry... On the transfiguration lesson next day, Emma couldn't help wondering if Dumbledor told Prof. McGonogall that she was his grandchild, anyway McGonagall showed nothing teaching them about how to turn a toad into a armchair. At the end of the class it was only Hermione and Emma who had done things right. After lunch Emma and Harry disappeared and Ron saw his chance to talk to Hermione privately. Pulling her aside in an abandon room he had never seen before. Emma and Harry on the other hand stood behind the stairs to the dormitories kissing... Little did they know about Ginny coming down the stairs and turning to their direction to speak to a friend who was just behind her. She saw them standing there, but they didn't notice her. Ginny had have a crush on Harry since they first met and seeing him with Emma hurled a lot but she knew that noting was to do about it, but she decided never to speak to Emma again... Emma and Harry stood there for a few minutes more than they got off searching for Ron and Hermione, they searched all over the common room until they found a door that was a bit open, they enter a room that no one seemed to been in for several years. They were about to leave when they heard a voice from the back... it was Ron's voice, thicker than usual, but it was Ron's all right. Than they heard another voice, it was Hermione's and Emma and Harry smiled to each other and walked out of the room leaving the two to them self's. Emma got in to her room and found a package on her bed opening it she found a crystal bowl with a light purple smoke in it. And she found a note inside from her grandpa: " I asked your grandma if we had some things left from your mom and she found this, I don't know what it is, but I think it was important to her, that's why I'm passing it to you. Love Grandpa" Emma stared at the beautiful bowl and decided to show it to Harry, he maybe knew what it was, it looked like a common future telling crystal bowl, but the smoke told Emma other wise. Emma went down to the common room again finding Harry sitting in an armchair waiting for her, she showed him the bowl but he shocked his head and instead they returned to their book about ancient witchcraft. About five minutes later Ron and Hermione walked in looking happily at each other. Emma and Harry clapped their hands " finally" said Emma " I never taught you two would get it going on" Hermione blushed and Ron looked proud laying his arm around her shoulder. Then Emma shoved them the bowl, but none of them know what it was. Ron suggested that they wound ask his dad who was a minister and sent him an owl. While they waited for the owl to return they began to look in the library for information, but found nothing. At the same time was time for the second Quiddich match that was against Slytherin, and the Gryffindor team practised hard, (as they done ever since the term started) One day when they was walking from a Potion lesson Malfoy Crabbe and Goyle came to them looking extremely pleased with themselves.
- Oh look guys! Is it not, Potty and weasel? Malfoy said
- Shut up Malfoy, Harry replied
- Oh have you heard Harry? My father has bought the whole team the
thunderbolt 2 you wont stand a chance tomorrow said Malfoy smirking - You think huh, that you will win? I have seen you in action Malfoy and if
you aren't even half as good as Harry on a broom stick. Emma said
- Oh, stuff it Dickens... you don't want to be expelled do you? Snape has
told me everything about the conversation he overheard between you and
Dumbledore. - Your teacher has to be learned not to esedrop on others conversations and
as for my conversation with the headmaster, he didn't say I were not allowed to have a little fun with the pupils on this school and if I where you Malfoy I would watch what I was drinking or eating in the next couple
of years. Emma said smiling evil at them Malfoy looked terrified at Emma and walked away without saying anything, the other tree laughed so much they had to sit down for a moment. When they got to their senses they continued walking to lunch and when they saw Malfoy making Crabbe and Goyle to test eat his food before he eat it, all four of them laughed again. The next day was sunny and they got the morning off because off the match that would take place then. The players flew in to the pitch and the game started with Gryffindor taking the quaffle, and making 10 points for the house, the match continued, getting rougher by the minute. Above the game Harry sat on his Thunderbolt looking out for the golden snitch. Ron had a busy time trying to keep the goalposts safe while dodging for buldgers, but luckily he had at least one of his brothers George or Fred by his side. Then Harry saw it, the snitch, He looked at malfoy's direction to see if he had noticed it to, he hadn't. So Harry sat his broom in motion very carefully at first and then he dove after the snitch, following it closely. Now Malfoy was on the move diving after Harry who made a right turn and just in front of Gryffiondor's stand he felt a pull on his leg. Mafoy was trying to get him off his broom, but Harry shook his leg hard and Malfoy let go screaming something to Crabbe, who aimed a bulger at Harry's direction, but in the mid air it stopped, giving Harry enough time to get away, catch the snitch and wave to Madam Hootch that he got it. Now the buldger acted very strange, it seemed to want to go forward but something dragged it the other direction. Madam Hootch flew up, got hold of it and took it away to examine it. But Harry didn't care he flew down to his teammates and the other Gryffindor pupils. Emma was there and she smiled when she saw him giving him the tubs up. He went with the others to the dressing room and when he and Ron was finished there they went up to the library were they knew they would find the two girls, who sat with their noses in books, but gave it a break when they came in. They hadn't still found anything about Emma's crystal bowl, but Emma seemed had other thins in her mind, and when they asked what was wrong she replied: - I can't help wondering, who my dad is, if he is alive and all that, don't get me wrong I perfectly happy the way things are, with Dumbledore being my
grandpa, but... - We understand Emma, Really we do, said Ron, I would also like to know who my dad was if I didn't knew, but can't you do as you did with Dumbledore? - Maybe, I will talk to madam Pompfrey when I get the time...Now lets try to
figure out this mystery about my crystal bowl she said returning to her
books. But they had soon too finish their search with more important homework to attend to. Their works about ancient witchcraft continued, and they had to read tree chapters about logletters in magical creatures class and Harry, Ron and Emma had a big homework in future telling where they now had backed a little, back to astrology reading about their zodiacs and its affect on their lives. Emma first read the notes their teacher wrote down on Harry's paper that was about her and Harry's zodiac; sounding like this: LION: 23 July to the 24th of August This Month will bring the Lion great love and affection (no doubt about that, said Harry smiling) but also mind trouble, but not to worry the thing or things will be shown in due time. Now pupils I want you to find out what the zodiac tells you about next mouth. I want it to be at least ½ page – 1 page long. Hand it in the next, next time cause the lecture on Wednesday is going to be cancelled when I have to take a journey to west Wales, to attend my sister's funeral. On Ron's paper it stood exactly the same so they assumed it was correct, Prof Trelawney, couldn't sometimes be believed, she had predicted Harry's death since he started future telling, witch according to Harry was very annoying. While studding the stars and writing down charts about the zodiacs position on the 5th of February and so on, Emma tanked her lucky star that she just had missed the looking in crystal bowls lessons by an year, and then it hit her, Crystal bowls lesson, Prof, Trelawney must know much about crystal bowls... why hasn't she think of that before? She jumped to her chair and said in a hurried voice:
- Do you guys think that Prof Treawney is still here?
- Why do you want to know that? Asked Ron in disbelieve
- Cause it just hit me, that maybe she knows something about my crystal
bowl... - If I were you I would wait into next time we see her, you can take your
bowl with you and talk to her in private. Said Harry - I guess you're right, Harry, I will wait, Have you heard anything from
your dad yet Ron? - Yes I got an owl this morning, he didn't know, and I was so nervous about
the game I forgot to tell you... - It doesn't matter Ron, the important thing is that you tell us now, said
Hermione as to comfort him. Emma and Harry looked at each other and smiled, The same time they heard a laud bang, the for of them got on their feet's rushing there to see what it was, It was Neville that had tried to reach a book, but as he had grabbed it the whole book shelf came on top of him. He was badly hurt and Emma offered to take him up to the hospital wing, seeing a chance to talk to madam Pompfrey. She did that and was told that the test results in the end of April. It was long time to wait but Emma was in no hurry.
