Hating Love Chapter 9 Something is Wrong

Kat was in the dungeons training with her watcher Jon. All she really did in training was kick and punch punching bags. She also practiced aiming at targets with knives and crossbows. Jon said "Okay Kat, so first I want you to try and get a knife on each of the targets around the room. Ready? Go." Kat through every knife onto the middle of each target. "Good. Why was it so good?"

"Well, you know I am kinda born with these slayer powers and they include good aim." Kat said sarcastically.

"No. I mean you are doing exactly what I am asking you. Something is wrong. Or I may have slipped into an alternate reality." Jon said.

"Nothing is wrong. I...I am just nervous about this Masquerade Ball thing. That's all." Kat lied.

"That is the silliest thing I have ever heard. You aren't nervous about this ball. Something is wrong and it is effecting your slaying. I demand you tell me this instant." Jon said.

"Yes sir. I live to follow your demands. Yeah right!" Kat said sarcastically.

"Well that answers the alternate reality question."

"Ha-ha. Accio knives." Kat said as the knives flew off the walls and into her hands. Kat began throwing them into the targets again. This time she threw them harder.

"Maybe you should move on to the punching bag." Jon said. Kat went over to where the punching bag was. She started punching and ended up making the punching bag go flying across the room. "I definitely think that you need to tell someone what is bothering you." Jon said noticing that she had some issues today.

"I don't need a shrink Jon. All I need is to kill something." Kat said angrily.

"Fine. After you eat go patrol then. We are done here." Jon said.

"Thank you. I will see you next week." Kat said. With that she left for dinner.

At dinner Kat ate hardly anything. Hermione asked "Is everything okay Kat? You seem a little off."

"I'm fine. Everything is fine." Kat responded. "Are you sure?" Harry asked.

"I'm positive. I'm not hungry. I am going to remedial potions. Bye." Kat said, knowing that they would know what she meant.

"Bye."the trio had said at the same time.

After dinner Malfoy came up to Harry. "Do you know where Kat went?"

"Why do you care Malfoy?" Ron said. Harry didn't tell Ron about Kat and Draco. Hermione had basically figured it out on her own. She didn't need Harry to tell her.

"Kat said she went to remedial potions." Hermione said.

"Thanks Granger." Draco said. With that he left.

"Did Malfoy just thank you without insulting you?" Ron asked.

"I think so. He looked concerned. He was muttering something under his breath." Hermione said.

"It sounded like, 'Damn her. She will never stop will she.' What do you think he meant by she will never stop?" Harry asked.

"I don't know."

Draco entered the forest to look for Kat. He knew that she was around here somewhere. She had to be. "Go away Drake."

"Are you okay?" Draco asked.

"My mom died eight years ago on this day because of me. How do you think I am?" Kat said.

"The car accident was not your fault. And how do you know that it is your fault? You said that you can't even remember it. Your dad used magic to block the memory."

"My dad did block the memory. I still know what happened before and after the accident." Kat told him.

"You still see it in dreams?"

"Yeah. But I don't want to see it in my dreams tonight. My dreams have been getting more intense lately. Like I am actually there. It's way to real for me."

"Well they are just dreams. Remember that."

"Yeah. Well I don't know what is going on lately. My dreams seem to be the past. I am not sure who's past it is. Sometimes it's my past but other times, it's not, but it is confusing." Kat said.

"Maybe you should tell Dumbledore." Draco suggested.

"What's he going to tell me? Get high and everything will be okay? I think Dumbledore may be using drugs. He sure is acting like it."

"Well they say dreams mean something. Maybe you conscience is trying to tell you something. What are the dreams about?"

"One was really intense. There were two adults. A woman with red hair and a man with black hair and glasses. Then there was a baby. A black hooded man comes in and suddenly there is a flash of green light. Then the man was dead. The woman was trying to protect the baby. Then there was another green flash. The woman was dead. Then the baby wasn't killed. The black hooded man tried to kill him but the light reflected back onto the hooded figure and I guess it might have killed him. Then I wake up."

"You are dreaming of the past. Potter's past to be exact. That baby you saw was Harry. You saw the night that his parents were killed and he defeated Voldemort." Draco said shocked.

"Whoa. That is weird. Why would I be seeing his past though?" Kat asked.

"I dunno. Maybe it has something to do with the prophecy." Draco said, "You should go back. It is getting late. Come on I'll walk you back to the castle."
