Chapter 6

Disclaimer: I only own Beatriz.

The truth

Beatriz's P.O.V (point of view)

I was about to score a goal, I can do it! Suddenly as soon as I'm going to throw the ball in, darkness surrounds me. I hear faint shouting in the background...suddenly a room with a cot, appears in front of me.

I hear a scream and the room in front of me dissolves. Another room appears and I can see a beautiful woman with long wavy red hair in front of me. She's kneeling down over a man lying on the floor, oh my god...he's dead.

There was a burst of light and a door opens. I look around to see who is there and I see my worst nightmare. A tall man encloaked in black, with a skeleton face, and his eyes...his eyes are snakelike and....red.

The beautiful woman runs up the stairs and the room in front of me dissolves once more into the room I had first seen. The woman is there and she is holding a baby to her chest tightly. The baby is asleep. The evil man comes into the room and speaks to her in a high voice, a trace of faint hissing to his voice,

"It is time for me to kill the baby and end the Potters forever!"

The woman screamed, tears streaming down her face and said,

"Kill me, spare Harry! Don't kill me !"

"Get out of the way you foolish woman!"#

But she doesn't so he laughs. A high, cold mirthless laugh and says,

"Then I will have to kill you."

She screams and says,

"I love you, harry!"

"Avada Kedavra!"

The red haired woman falls to the floor. Dead.

The evil wizard then turns on Harry and performs the curse on him, but it backfires.The evil wizard screams one last time and disappears into the air.

The scene changed one last time and I see myself hugging Harry, tears streaming down both our faces.

The room dissolves once more and I open my eyes to see myself lying down on the sofa, worried faces looking at me.

back into normal tense

She sat up weakly and could hear somebody saying,

"Give her space, give her space."

She felt a hand on her shoulder and looked up to see Remus look at her with a worried expression.

"What happened?" she said quietly.

Lupin looked at her and asked,

"What do you remember?"

"I just remember darkness surrounding me...OH MY GOD! I need to see Dumbledore now! Quickly –"

She tried to get up, bu Sirius kneeled down quickly and said,

"Don't worry! Calm down, I'll go and get Dumbledore –"

"No need Sirius. I'm already here."
Dumbledore walked swiftly into the room and said,
"Beatriz, Harry I need to see you two alone. You Sirius too."

Remus ushered the rest out of the room and shut the door behind him,
they all sat down. Harry next to Beatriz and Sirius in an armchair.
Dumbledore sat down in an armchair in front of the fire and said,

"Beatriz, I heard that you fell off you broomstick during a Quidditch match, unconscious.Fortunately Harry here caught before you could hit the ground "

She quickly looked at Harry and smiled thankfully.
"- and I immediately knew something wasn't right."Dumbledore continued.
"Beatriz, could you tell me exactly what you saw?"
They all looked at Beatriz expectantly and she explained to them what she had seen.When she had finished, nobody spoke. After a while, Harry said,

"Dumbledore, sir, did Beatriz see my parents die?"

Dumbledore surveyed Harry over his half moon glasses and said,

"I'm afraid she did, yes."

Beatriz gasped and quickly said,

"But – how – why – what-?"

Dumbledore looked into the fire and sighed deeply. He looked at them and said,

"I think it is time for me to tell you all the truth."

"I will explain it to you first Sirius, as it is related with what I am going to tell Beatriz."

Sirius nodded seriously.

"16 years ago, a certain man made a certain young woman pregnant. She was going to tell the father the day he got framed by one of his best friends."

This was starting to sound familiar.

"But what's that got to do with me?" said Sirius impatiently.

"I haven't finished yet,"said Dumbledore. "The woman had the twins and after a few days she found out that Voldemort was after one of her twins. She asked for my help and I tried to protect her form Voldemort but did not succeed."

"He found her and tried to take away the twin. He was not able as I had done an extremely powerful spell so he would not be able to get the twin. He then did an equally powerful spell on me. That meant that if the mother took her twin I would die. It is one of the oldest spells in magic and could not be changed."

"You are probably wondering why I am telling you all this," He sighed very deeply.

"The woman was called Maria Plaja. Sirius you were the one that made her pregnant. Beatriz you are the twin that Voldemort wanted and wants. Sirius, you are Beatriz's father."

Sirius stood up so quickly that Harry nearly jumped out of his skin.

Beatriz said,

"So, when can I – but I can't see my mother or you'll die; but my twin – Voldemort wants me –"

She was now slightly hyperventilating, so Dumbledore cut in.

"Beatriz, calm down. Firstly, your mother made me promise to not reunite you with her. She did NOT do this, because she didn't love you, no, she said that if I died it would be the worst thing to help bring down Voldemort, there would be more killings and he would end up taking over the world. Do you understand?"

Beatriz nodded sadly.

"Secondly, your twin already knows all this. His name is Michal and you will be able to meet him at Hogwarts. He looks a lot like you, so it won't be very difficult to spot him!" said Dumbledore with a small smile.

Then Beatriz asked,

"But, why does Voldemort want only me and not my twin?"

Dumbledore looked into the fire for a few seconds and then looked at her and said,

"I believe that you have the gift of 'Seerpastsouls'. I will explain. This is a very rare gift, it consists on that the person who has been given it will have dreams on things that have happened in the past and then they will see what will happen in the future related to it."

"You are currently the only person in the wizarding world to have this gift. That is why Voldemort wants you. To take advantage of the gift you have and use it for himself."

After this little speech he stood up quickly and said,

"Well I must be going. Take care of yourselves. And I will see you two at Hogwarts."He said to Harry and Beatriz before Disapparating.

This was followed by a long silence.

After a few minutes, Sirius broke the silence and said, slightly hoarse,

"So Beatriz, I'm your dad. Your real dad," he added quietly to himself.

Beatriz nodded silently. Suddenly she stood up and gave him a hug. Sirius looked shocked for a moment, but the relaxed and returned the hug.

He then said,

"Well, we better go, before the others burst with suspicion!"

Harry started towards the door, but Beatriz called him. He turned around and saw her coming towards him, she suddenly tripped towards him and he caught her before she fell.

They both suddenly fell a surge of electricity course throught their bodies. She looked up at him and forgetting Sirius was there, Harry lowered his head...

"hmm, hmm," said Sirius clearing his throat loudly and before they could say anything he walked away whistling: "love is in the air..."

Harry and Beatriz blushed profusely and quickly went out of the room.
