Update: "On the count of three, you will awake from slumber. 1…2…3…snap"

Lily's eyes popped open, taking in her surroundings. Vladimir slowly put the gold chain away, hands shaking, McGonagall was on her feet, mouth hanging open and Dumbledore was surveying her closely, a smile tugging at his lips. Everyone was silent; an awkward silence; a silence where no one wants or knows what to say.

"W-what happened?" Lily broke the ice, face reddening when no one answered.

Chapter 23: Unknown Abilities

After a few moments of more silence, Dumbledore cleared his throat, "Ms. Evans, I wonder…do you have any recollection of your dreams?"

"I can see flashes of different things that are happening, but not the whole dream as a whole," Lily said, wondering where this was going.

"I see," Dumbledore said, clicking his teeth.

"Professor, I really don't understand this whole situation. Am I here because I can dream…?" Lily asked, voice quieting down at each word.

"In ways, yes. You have a special gift, Ms. Evans. Something, I'm sure, we can all learn from," Dumbledore smiled.

"Professor, if I can speak?" Professor Vladimir turned to Dumbledore, who nodded in reply, "Ms. Evans, you do have a special gift, a gift one could only die for. I do not believe you are in my Divination class?"

"No, I took Arithmacy…" Lily replied, feeling a bit awkward.

"I see…as professional in the theory of Divination, I would be honored to instruct Ms. Evans to further extend her abilities."

"May I ask what ability I have?" Lily said, a bit frustrated, not understanding what the Professors were talking about.

Vladimir turned to Dumbledore, silently asking whether he could tell Lily. Again, Dumbledore nodded, "Ms. Evans, you have signs of an early seer."

"A-a-a Seer? As in a psychic?" Lily hysterically asked.

"Yes, a very rare and useful gift. I believe, as a quick guess…you are beginning transformations as a Vates Insomniorum," Vladimir grinned.

"A what?" Lily asked.

"A Dream Seer, Ms. Evans," Professor McGonagall tutted.

"One that has involuntary dreams that see the future. Mostly what you see are true. But the truth comes in many forms to build that vision," Vladimir tried to explain.

"I don't understand…you must be mistaken. I couldn't possibly be…a…what you said I was…why me? Why now?" A flustered Lily asked.

"Can happen to anyone…anytime; know one knows…it just happens. One of those things," Dumbledore smiled.

"I understand…I just…can't explain," Lily tried to explain.

Dumbledore nodded.

"I would like for you to take an extra class, Ms. Evans," Dumbledore paused, flicking his wand and a folder appeared, labeled: Lily Evans, "I believe you have a few spares?"

"Yes. I-I finished a course in Muggle Studies extra early," Lily blushed.

Dumbledore chuckled, "If I'm not mistaken, are you not Muggle-born? Why did you take Muggle Studies?"

"I thought it would be interesting to learn from a wizard's perspective," Lily smiled.

"Out of all my years at Hogwarts, I've never heard that before," McGonagall sighed.

"Let's carry on, shall we?" Dumbledore turned back to his papers, "I think…Ivan, do you have room in your Divination class for another student? I feel that if it is alright with Ms. Evans, she can learn a bit about the subject and advance on her own abilities from there, if that takes private lessons, so be it."

"I have a lot of room in my class," Vladimir said bitterly.

"Excellent. Ms. Evans? Do you agree to the terms?"

"I guess s--" Lily began to say.

"Tremendous! You shall begin on Monday, Ms. Evans," Dumbledore, swirling his wand around the papers on his desk, made them disappear, "Now, is there anything else we must cover?"

"My Goodness!" McGonagall randomly shouted.

"What is it, Minerva?" Dumbledore questioned.

"Professor Hector…Mr. Potter…I left Professor Hector with James Potter…a delusional James Potter! Oh No, I forgot to check on them! I-I've got to go…" McGonagall nodded towards Dumbledore then ran out the door.

The remaining party laughed to themselves.

"I say. Well, I believe that is it, Ms. Evans, may I speak to you in private?" Professor Dumbledore asked.

"Yes, sir," Lily said, remaining seated.

Once Professor Vladimir had left Dumbledore's office, Dumbledore turned to Lily.

"I have something to ask of you," Dumbledore said, Lily remained quiet so Dumbledore continued; "I feel that in the times of danger we can always use any help we can have to fight against evil. Ms. Evans, you have a rare gift, one in a million, a jewel that we don't want to fall into the wrong hands. I ask of you to tell me when your learning is complete."

"Yes, sir," Lily walked out the door, a little lost about what Dumbledore said. Right when Lily left the office, she felt like a brick had slammed in her head.

'Oh, my God! I cannot believe this...Dream Seer? How did this happen to me? What's so special about me that I have this ability...I'm muggle born! How is this possible? I...I don't even know how to comprehend this...' Lily found herself walking back to Gryffindor Tower and was about to say the password when she remembered that this wasn't her home. Lily walked down the hall to an angel statue, behind it, her new home.

"Jellical," Lily sighed. The wings unfolded to reveal an odd sight.

James, still in a trance, was hanging upside down from the ceiling with Professor McGonagall and Professor Hector fighting over a wand; playing tug-a-war.

"Ummm…Excuse me? Professors?" Everyone was just as loud and did not hear Lily so, she screamed, "EXCUSE ME!!"

McGonagall and Hector snapped their necks towards Lily's direction. Both of them tidied themselves up, straightening their robes, after McGonagall seized the wand from Hector's grasp. Lily sighed, rolling her eyes.

"What is he doing on the ceiling?" Lily tried not to stifle a laugh as she pointed to a mumbling delusional James on the ceiling.

"No need for explanation," McGonagall said, flustered, "Ms. Evans, will you pass me my wand at your feet?"

Lily raised her eyebrows at the wand that was already in McGonagall's hands, guessing that it was Hector's. Lily didn't even want to know what happened between the rival teachers. Lily picked the wand up at her feet and passed it to McGonagall.

"Thank you, dear. Now, will you excuse us? We have a visit to the Headmaster's office," McGonagall grabbed Hector and dragged him out the door.

"Ummm…Professor, what do I do about Potter?" Lily asked turning to the hanging body.

"Let him down," McGonagall said, like it was the most obvious thing ever. Lily was about to ask how, but the Professor's were already out the door.

"Great…how am I going to do this? I could just leave him there…" Lily said, staring at James. He stirred; the truth potion was wearing off. His eyes fluttered open, and he started to scream, noticing that he was hanging upside down.

"AHH! Somebody get me down from here!! HELP, HELP!!" James was trying to wiggle himself free from the ceiling.

"Shut up, Potter," Lily said, but James obviously did not hear her. Lily tried to think of a way to let James down. But the only thing that came to mind was, "ACCIO, POTTER!"

James came flying down at Lily and crashed into her. Both of them rolled together into the wall.

"Thanks," James smiled down at Lily.

"No problem, just get off me," Lily said, trying not to smile.

"What if I don't want to?" James stubbornly asked.

"Then," Lily thought, "I'll have to hurt you, because I am in the most convenient spot."

"I would like to see the day when you--" James couldn't finish his sentence, because Lily kneed him so hard, he rolled off her.

"I'll be in my room," Lily smiled, stepping over James. Lily dived onto her bed, her big smile didn't disappear, 'What's wrong with me? Why am I smiling...not because of...him?'

Lily was a bit tired of thinking, it had been a long day; moving in, the truth potion, the meeting at Dumbledore's office, James, James, James…. 'Why can I not stop thinking of him?!'

Once again, Lily shook the image of James from her head and changed into her pajamas. Lily had just finished brushing her teeth when there was a knock at the door.

"Yes?" Lily called.

"It's me," James called from outside.

"Yes?" Lily walked to the door and opened it a crack.

"I-I have to tell you something," James stuttered.

"Umm…Alright…" Lily said, leaning in closer. But James didn't say anything; he grabbed her waist and put his other hand behind her head, leaned in and kissed Lily. Lily didn't resist, their kiss just deepened and Lily's insides were going wild and knees getting weak. Without warning James pulled away, didn't look at Lily and walked into his room. Lily stood there, not knowing to smile or start screaming, so her mouth just hung open. She couldn't make anything out of what just happened; it went by so fast.

"What just happened?" Lily whispered to herself.

Lily slowly slid behind the shut door, sitting on the floor, with the biggest smile on, ever.
