Chapter 18 – Visions, Tests and Voldemort
------Kathryn's vision------
"What happened?" A pale Remus Lupin asked.
"It appears that Sirius betrayed Lily and James to Voldemort." Dumbledore looked ashen. "Peter tracked him down. And Sirius killed him and twelve other people."
"I can't believe it! Why would Sirius do that? Surely Kathryn... Oh, Merlin, is Kathryn alright? And Selene? How did Harry survive?"
"Kathryn and Selene disappeared the same night Lily and James were murdered."
"What?"
"It's true. I don't know whether they're dead, or Kathryn had a vision, or she felt guilty about Sirius... I just can't believe she didn't tell us this was going to happen. Lily and James are – were her best friends."
"She was so scared about changing the future. But it shattered Voldemort. The Killing Curse rebounded off Harry to destroy Voldemort. Though I don't believe he's dead. He wasn't human enough to die."
"No, he wasn't. Lily died to save Harry, I think the love that she showed gave him a protection..."
"Love? Of course! Our first Defence Against the Dark Arts lesson. I had that class with them. Kathryn informed Professor Johnson that the only protection from Avada Kedavra was the love shown by someone to die for another. That it would create a barrier and reflect it back on the caster." Remus gasped. "She knew that it would protect Harry. And she was scared that warning them would mean Voldemort was never defeated."
"He isn't. Just at bay."
"Where is Kathryn now?"
"We don't know. I do know that the sapphire and the emerald are lit with the essence of an Elemental Guardian's soul. Kathryn is not dead."
"People in the wizarding world are beginning to believe she is. They're saying Sirius is crazy and killed her and his daughter before finishing off Peter." Remus looked sick. "I can't believe that. Sirius and Kathryn were soulmates."
"But the curse upon them..." Dumbledore's eyes lit again. "The curse. What if this is all part of it?"
"Voldemort attacking the Potters is part of their curse?"
"No! Kathryn's disappearance, Sirius' incarceration in Azkaban, his apparent madness. And Kathryn has left because she feels she cannot change the future."
Kathryn, watching this in the familiar incorporeal form of her vision-self, let out a sob. "I had to. I had to leave the man I love. And let everyone think he was guilty. He's innocent."
"How can she survive? She has a baby to look after, she can't stay on the run..."
"She has self-transfiguration, Remus. You know of your friends' extraordinary abilities. She can change her looks, she can change her daughter's. She's a skilled witch. Maybe she'll use this time for something important, but I do not know." Dumbledore sighed. "She won't return until the end of Harry's fifth year at school."
Remus looked angry. "Damn her! She's one of the strongest and most powerful witches alive, not mention an Auror and Unspeakable! She was our only contact in the Department of Mysteries."
"We must trust she has a reason for what she has done."
"It had better be good. Harry's stuck with those Muggles, and I'm the only one of his dad's closest friends left here. Alura and Damion live in America, Radella... well, you know where Radella is. Frank and Alice, well, they've got Neville to look after, and they're top Aurors, with the Potters and Blacks gone, our remaining Aurors have more than enough to do. And there are still supporters of Voldemort everywhere... I can't shake off the feeling..."
"Something will happen to them?"
"Yes. I'm sure it's something Kathryn said..." Remus scrunched up his face as though trying to remember something. "It was that same D.A.D.A. class. She said about working on a cure for those tortured by the Cruciatus Curse. She said that Voldemort's supporters would use it, and her eyes flickered to Frank and Alice, just for a second. Everything she has said, been afraid of, even hinted at, it's always come to pass!"
"Except for those she deliberately prevented from visions later on. Arthur Weasley's death, Moody's early retirement, the attack that would have killed Molly Weasley's unborn child, even while she was pregnant herself... Clearly, these people play roles in the future."
"She said that the Weasleys would be important to Harry, that one of their children would be his best friend."
"Ronald. He's a few of months older, but he would enter school in the same year as Harry."
"So why did she leave?"
"She did not hear herself in her coma. In later visions, she commented of hints at something not in the books as she still describes them, but she could never work out what it was."
"Her." Remus gasped. "It's her."
"Yes. Let's hope she returns. Harry, apparently, will be alive at the end of Fifth-year, but from what she told me, it's going to be close. He'll need the protection of at least one of his Guardians, his Godmother, to help."
------------
Kathryn gasped.
'I leave,' she thought. 'That explains a lot.'
"Kat?" Sirius asked.
"Another vision."
"What of?"
"The future."
"I figured that out. Why do other people think I'm guilty? What am I innocent of?"
"I can't tell you, Sirius, I can't mess with such a fragile thing as that future."
"Why not?"
"Because if I do, Voldemort will be in power for longer and more people will die. People I love are going to be murdered, imprisoned, betrayed, harmed, destroyed. And I can't stop it."
Sirius looked sorrowful, but understood her. "I promise, I'll make that future a good one."
Kathryn smiled. "You can try."
###
The next day:"Alura, Radella!" Kathryn grinned, hugging her friends wildly, Lily with her.
"Kat! Lily!" They half-shrieked in unison.
"Do you ever get annoyed with being so high-pitched?" Damion asked, appearing in the fireplace.
"No." They all stuck their tongues out at him.
"Ooph!" Another noise from the fireplace. Remus had just fallen, right on top of Damion.
"You couldn't've moved?" Remus asked.
"Sorry."
"You'd think anyone would be intelligent enough to move out of a fireplace when they knew someone was coming, but no." Remus rolled his eyes.
"Sorry, Professor Lupin, but not all of us are top..."
"You're a bleedin' Ravenclaw! You're supposed to be lecturing us on the importance of schoolwork!" Kathryn informed him.
"I'm only a Ravenclaw because my whole family is. The Sorting Hat didn't want to break it's tradition. Otherwise I'd've been Gryffindor."
"Well next time you see the Hat, tell it that it's not so much a thinking cap as an idiot cap." James informed him.
Damion grinned. "I will."
"Any plans for today?" Remus asked.
"We need your help." Kathryn and Lily told him.
"Why?"
"We're struggling on the Charms essay."
"You two are O-students!" Remus accused.
"Yes, but you're an O-star student! You're top in the year, Remus! No one can beat you in Charms!" Kathryn exclaimed.
"Why do we have to do homework on the first day?" Alura asked.
"Because then we don't have it hanging over us. We can enjoy the rest of the holiday, guilt-free." Lily explained. (A/N: So true!)
Groaning, they persuaded the boys (and Alura) to do homework and completed it, in the garden, in the sunshine, drinking cool drinks that weren't pumpkin juice, and, in all, enjoyed it. It wasn't nearly so depressing when you could do your homework in comfortable situations, and ask friends for help, frequently discussing completely unrelated topics like Apparation, broomsticks and which was better: pink marshmallows or white? (That was brought up by Sirius, of course, who didn't want to do his Potions essay – Truth potions and their uses, historic and modern, two rolls of parchment.)
It was on the Wednesday, that, having finished their homework, they began to plan some things to do.
"Well, there's a play on in The Cauldron Theatre. It's supposed to be really good." Kathryn suggested.
"What is it?"
"Um, 'The Wishes of Danara'. It sounds interesting, about a Muggle girl who is granted three wishes by an evil witch, who knows that she will become a great source for good. Each wish is twisted to suit the witch, not the girl. Of course, she'll defeat the witch, but I want to know how."
Sirius grinned. "I love that theatre. It's so cool. And the boxes, if you can get them, are really good. And they serve Butterbeer!"
"I don't mind. What about you?" James asked.
In the end, it was decided to go to theatre after they took their Apparation tests, which were at the end of July. They were now starting to practise. Sirius wasn't sure if he was Apparating or teleporting until Kathryn pointed out that Apparation had the loud crack and teleporting didn't. He soon worked out the difference.
Kathryn, Sirius, James and Lily all managed to learn Apparating relatively easily. After a few days, they had got very accurate and were now helping their friends. Soon enough all of them got the knack of it, including Remus. It was the one privilege werewolves seemed to be allowed, and he was getting his licence as soon as possible in case they changed the law.
They spent the rest of the month waging prank wars on each other (boys versus girls), annoying Kathryn's grandmother, who didn't look granny-like at all, much to Kathryn's amusement and chagrin, and 'snogging each other senseless' as Leila so delicately put it when she walked in on Kathryn and Sirius in the library one rainy day. She had swiftly run at Sirius' look and Kathryn's clear annoyance – she knew her elder sister had a temper, and it was even worse than her own.
On the twenty-ninth of July, Enchanted, three-quarters of the Marauders and Damion, escorted by Olden as he went to work, headed to the Ministry of Magic. They stepped into the telephone box, typed in the number (34487 at this time), and received badges saying their names and the words 'Apparation Test'.
When they presented their wands to the man at the desk, he frowned at Kathryn's. "Only in use nearly a year?"
"Yeah, I was in a coma for five years see? So I wasn't awake to get my wand in First-year. Went straight into Sixth-year after scoring way more than enough OWLs, okay?" Kathryn explained.
"Very well."
The eight of them made their way downstairs to the Department of Magical Transportation and then to the Apparation Test Centre.
The Head of the Test Centre was a wizard named Patil and he smiled as they entered.
"Here for your tests?" He asked.
"Yes." Sirius answered.
"Okay, you have to fill in these forms first. Then you'll proceed onto the theory test and then the practical." Patil explained.
Each of them sat at a desk and filled in the necessary forms.
Kathryn's form ran thus:
Name: Kathryn Farrah Orenda
Date of Birth: 01-01-64
Current Address: Magic's Haven,
Lord's Lane,
Nr. Neath,
West Glamorgan.
Qualifications: Eleven OWLs
Occupation: Student at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.
Distinguishing marks: Pentacle scar on right side of collarbone. Birthmark at base of spine in shape of flame.
Her pen paused over the revelation of the birthmark. Each had discovered them on their seventeenth birthday, less like a birthmark, more like a sign. Kathryn's was a scarlet flame. Lily's appeared to be a green cyclone, so she had named it as a tattoo, as James had named the blue wave of his. Sirius' looked like a white scar, a crystal to symbolise the earth. While the girls' were at the base of their spines, the boys' were on their right shoulder blades.
Then she proceeded onto the theory test, which was fairly easy, and she completed it within the half hour with ten minutes to spare.
"Hand in your tests to me. A Magical Marker will mark these while you do your practical. Today's designated area for Apparation is Platform Nine and Three-quarters. Another official is there, waiting for you. You will Apparate there, and then back here. If you are successful, you will be issued with a licence. Understood?" Patil asked.
"Yes." They replied in unison.
He called them in alphabetical order, so Sirius was first.
"Black."
Sirius nodded and carefully concentrated on Apparating to Platform Nine and Three-quarters. Five minutes later, he reappeared, and was handed his licence. Next came Lily, Damion, Alura, Radella, Remus, and then Kathryn.
As she stepped forward, she concentrated solely on the need to Apparate. And seconds later, she was on Platform 9¾, an examiner making a mark in a box.
"Very good, Miss Orenda. You can Apparate back now." The woman smiled.
Kathryn nodded, and a crack put her back in the Apparation Test Centre.
"Good, very accurate. Your licence, Miss Orenda." Patil handed her one. She grinned. They didn't actually need to carry the licences, except if trouble occurred. Those who could and were licensed were on a register.
"Potter." Patil called.
Five minutes later, James was issued with his.
"Woo-hoo!" Kathryn celebrated as they left the Test Centre.
"Licensed!" Sirius grinned, and caught her round the waist to pull her into a kiss.
"Don't you two ever celebrate without kissing?" Remus asked.
"Sometimes. But not often." Kathryn grinned.
The celebratory teenagers earned some funny or indulgent looks from Ministry workers as they passed. As they entered the Atrium though, a voice called to them.
Or, more specifically, to one of them.
"Kathryn? How did you do?" Olden asked.
Kathryn grinned, turning round. "I got it, Dad! We are all now licensed to travel by Apparation!"
"That's wonderful. Kathryn, I know someone who'd like to meet you." Olden told her.
She frowned. "Who? Why would anyone want to...?" Her voice trailed off as she saw two adults and two children, all with flaming red hair, revealed.
Sirius looked at her questioningly. "Kathryn?"
She moved forward, looking serene and comfortable. "Mr Weasley, Mrs Weasley, Bill, Charlie." She smiled.
"You are Kathryn Orenda?" Arthur Weasley asked her.
"Yes."
He smiled. He looked so much younger than in the books. Evidently, their aging was faster, more natural. "Thank you. Your father came to see me, not long after attack. He told me that it had been you who had helped save those lives."
"And yours. It was something I had to stop. I trust you know of my background?"
"Dumbledore thought it wise to inform me. He believed I and my family are trustworthy."
Kathryn smiled. "I know you are. And you were alive in the future I saw. For once I was able to stop my vision coming to pass."
Molly Weasley smiled. "It must be awful knowing some things you can't prevent."
"It is." She looked down at the two boys. "How old are you two?" She grinned.
"I'm seven." The older of the two grinned. 'Bill,' Kathryn thought, 'Must've been born in 1974.' (A/N: I'm making this up here. Just so I've got it reasonably accurate.)
"And I'm six." The other told her proudly. 'Charlie, born 1975, then,' Kathryn decided. 'I never thought I'd see them!'
"I'm seventeen." She grinned. "So, have I either of you met my brother?"
They shook their heads.
"He's seven. He'll probably be in your year at school, Bill." She grinned.
He looked at her searchingly. "How do you know my name?"
"I saw your future." She told him mysteriously. "Well, little bits. What I saw concentrated on someone else, but your family, being as wonderful as it is, plays an important part in his life." She grinned at the two older Weasleys.
"Will we indeed? Nice to know we've a purpose in life." Arthur Weasley chuckled.
Kathryn suddenly thought she was being rude.
"I'm sorry." She turned to her friends. "Guys! Get over here!" She grinned at the Weasleys. "These are my friends." Pointing to each as she spoke, she introduced them. "This is Sirius Black, my boyfriend."
"Hi." He smiled.
"He's the last sane person to hold the name Black. The other one exchanged hers for Tonks." She grinned. "This is Lily Evans and her boyfriend, James Potter." They waved, grinning. "Radella Leigh and her boyfriend, Remus Lupin." They grinned. "And Alura Kingston and her boyfriend, Damion Jackson."
"Hi."
Arthur Weasley looked questioningly at Olden Orenda. "How do you cope with four hormonal couples in your house?"
"I put a Silencing charm round their rooms. And spend as much time on assignment as possible."
"That explains a lot." Kathryn grinned. "Mum's starting to get annoyed though. She says that you and her were as bad as us, it's time for you to understand what your parents went through. I won't even tell you what Avia said. Not in front of innocent ears." She gestured to the two young boys.
"This is a nice conversation." Arthur Weasley grinned. "All I wanted was to thank you."
Kathryn grinned. "That's all right, Mr Weasley. I'll talk till McGonagall comes and threatens to kill me, given half the chance."
"Yeah, but McGonagall's a softie really. When you two fell asleep on the sofa after we won the Quidditch Cup she didn't even send you to bed. She just told me to get a blanket and then left." James explained.
"You won the Quidditch Cup?" Charlie asked.
"Yep. I'm the Gryffindor Captain, Sirius is a Beater and Kathryn substituted for one of our players who had been attacked." His face looked momentarily dark. "But, on the upside, she helped us win the Cup, and we know who to ask next year."
"Umm, Kat? We need to get back. We promised your Mum we'd help her clear out one of the empty wings before you get any more orphans." Remus pointed out.
"Oh yeah. Sorry, Mr Weasley, Mrs Weasley. I hope I'll see you again sometime." Kathryn smiled.
"Us too. Thank you again, Kathryn." Arthur smiled.
"And call us Molly and Arthur." Mrs Weasley ordered.
"I will." Kathryn promised. "Oh, and Mrs Weasley?"
"Yes?"
"When you're taking your youngest son to Hogwarts, a boy with oversized clothing, round glasses, a snowy owl and a lost expression will ask you how to get onto Platform Nine and Three-quarters. Please tell him. It'll be the start of a wonderful friendship." Kathryn smiled.
Molly Weasley looked a little confused, but nodded.
"Yes, yes, I will." Absently, she placed a hand to her stomach.
Kathryn grinned. She had thought Mrs Weasley was pregnant, but hadn't wanted to say anything. Then the eight teens, with expressions of great delight, Apparated to Magic's Haven.
"Oh, dear Lord." Elise placed a hand to her heart. "Don't do that!"
"Mum, we just Apparated! Our first legal Apparation! It's so cool!" Kathryn exclaimed, and grabbed her mother's hands to begin dancing round the garden.
"Are you sure you didn't slip something in her orange juice this morning?" James asked Sirius.
"Positive. She's on a natural high." He replied, grinning ever so slightly.
They ate lunch and then spent the afternoon helping Elise sort out one of the empty wings. Orphaned children, homeless families, shattered survivors, they had been becoming more and more common. The Orendas had offered to house some of these people until they found new homes, new families, places to live. Voldemort's hand was heavy. More people were missing or terrorised each week.
It was only a matter of time before families like Kathryn's and James' – Aurors, outspoken against him, pillars of the community – were next on his hit list.
Kathryn, James, Lily and Sirius began to feel more and more frightened, hiding it well. After all, Voldemort wanted their magic. And if he couldn't have it, he wasn't going to let them use it against him, which left only the option of killing them.
Kathryn thought about such things as she helped her mother empty a room of furniture.
###
"Are you ready?" Sirius and James demanded, waiting and Kathryn and Lily's door."Just a minute!" Kathryn called, applying a last hint of eye shadow.
Lily was nearly ready. She wore boot-cut jeans, loaned to her by Kathryn, and a long-sleeved, green top, bringing out her eyes. With boots and her long hair loose, she looked great.
Kathryn finally stopped, grinning. "Okay, I'm ready." She wore a satin, lilac halter neck, revealing a little midriff above her dark jeans. As always, she wore her ruby jewellery, which went even with lilac. Pulling out a light jacket, she grinned. "Let's go, girl."
Sirius and James had evidently been leaning on the door, trying to listen, as they both fell forward when Lily opened it.
"What are you two like?" Kathryn asked, rolling her eyes.
Both boys looked good in black trousers and shirts. Both wore light cloaks in which they concealed their wands. Kathryn and Lily placed their own inside their jackets.
They joined the others further down the corridor and with a grin Apparated to the restaurant where they were eating before the play.
"Luciano's?" Kathryn grinned. "Italian by any chance?"
"Yep." Sirius grinned.
"You know me so well. I adore Italian food."
"I know. So do I." Sirius grinned.
It had been Sirius who had picked the restaurant, insisting that the meal was 'his treat', mainly as they were going to be spending the next couple of days helping him move into his new house now that they could Apparate.
"Table for eight booked under Black?" Sirius asked.
"Ah, yes, Mr Black. Come this way, please." The Italian waiter gestured for them to follow him.
The restaurant was amazing. Kathryn stared, as did Lily, who had clearly not been to a wizarding restaurant before. Crystals floated about candles giving off glittering light. Each alcove seemed to have different, beautiful music. Doors led to private tables in magical rooms.
"May I enquire as to the occasion?" The waiter, whose name was Marco, asked.
"Yes. We've all passed our Apparation Tests." Sirius grinned.
"Congratulations." Marco smiled, looking genuinely please for them. "Here it is, your table."
An alcove held a large, round table. In the centre sat an almost real phoenix, transfigured to be 'alive', with jewelled eyes. Crystals reflected candlelight in seventy different directions, patterns glowing all about them.
"Wow." Kathryn breathed.
Sirius smiled. "Thanks, Marco."
Lily looked at her friend. "Do you know him?"
"Yeah, he's a few years older than us, I think he left in our Second-year. Hufflepuff, good bloke. His dad owns the restaurant, he waits on tables on the nights he has free from his job in the Ministry."
"What does he do?"
"He works in the Department for Control and Regulation of Magical Creatures, Beast Division." Sirius explained.
"How do you know him?"
"This is the one place my parents took me when I was little that I actually liked. He waited on tables even then. He was always nice to me." Sirius explained. "So was his dad. My parents thought this was a 'proper' establishment because those who own it are purebloods."
"Oh." Was Lily's only reply.
They were soon eating delicious Italian food and teasing Sirius about helping him move in.
"The play starts in fifteen minutes." Kathryn pointed out.
"Well, the theatre isn't far." Sirius smiled.
In fact, it was only in the next street, Jamatic Alley, and they arrived in plenty of time. It wasn't long before they were sat in one of the boxes (someone had offered it tothem, deciding that maybe it wasn't the best idea to have four teenage couples sat together in the main audience).
"Want a sweet?" Sirius offered Kathryn.
"What are they?"
"There's a mixture, but nothing bad. I don't want to eat an Acid Pop or Cockroach Cluster by accident."
Kathryn giggled, and selected a Chocolate Frog. Keeping hold of the chocolate, she looked at the card and grinned.
"Hey, I've got Mystique!" She grinned.
"Really? Those of Mystique and Ynyr are supposed to be very rare." James frowned.
Kathryn read the back, noticing exactly how similar she looked to Mystique.
'Mystique Corinth, later Mystique Orenda, 1564-1587. Married Ynyr Orenda. Extremely powerful witch with skill in wandless magic and transfiguration. Made a prophecy about one of her descendants regaining her wandless magic. She and her husband were said to be under the Curse of Kali. Mystique died on Hallowe'en stopping the evil wizard Zemor from gaining the Source of the Elements. She was said to be a wonderful singer and dancer.'
Kathryn frowned. "Isn't that a little long?"
Sirius glanced at it. "Some are. Mystique, being so rare, has one of the longest."
Kathryn nodded her understanding and concealed the card in her bag.
The play started seconds later and the lights went down.
It was fascinating, entertaining, funny, sad, musical... Everything Kathryn looked for in a play. Until mid-way through the second half.
Suddenly a loud crack signified an Apparation, right onto centre-stage. The actors stopped and stared, then launched back as they realised the identity of the intruder.
"Voldemort." Sirius hissed.
Instantly, Kathryn, Sirius, James and Lily pulled out their wands and Apparated onto the stage.
"Just who I was looking for." Voldemort's mouth curled in a snake-like smile.
"Really, what could four hormonal teenagers mean to you, Voldemort?" James asked, his voice cold.
The audience gasped. No one in their right mind would bait Lord Voldemort. But then, these were teenagers.
"You dare say my name, boy?"
"We all dare, Voldemort. I even have my own nickname for you and your friends, wanna hear?" Kathryn asked. "But then, you put me in a five-year coma for refusing to let you have my magic. Magic I didn't even have then. Not active until the age of sixteen, you imbecile." She snarled.
"You dare insult me?" Voldemort roared. "Crucio!"
But Kathryn flipped out of the way, her heart hammering in her chest. All four realised that Voldemort was going to attack the audience.
"In so many struggles,
Many lives are lost,
Create a barrier,
Minimise such a cost." They chanted.
White, crimson, emerald and sapphire fires flowed from each of the teens, creating a barrier, stopping magic from leaving or entering.
Voldemort snarled. "All I need do is kill two of you. The men, or the women. Then neither child shall be born, neither shall have the power to destroy me. The Elemental Guardians shall not produce their Heirs."
"What?" Sirius gasped, frowning.
Kathryn's eyes were wide. "Heirs? Only one child has the power to destroy you... what are you on, Moldyvort?"
He screamed in anger at her nickname for him. "Terromae!" He yelled.
A burst of crackling light hit her, square in the chest. She flew back, hitting her head on a pillar. Unconscious, she shuddered, seeing her worst fears come alive.
"Leave!" Sirius's voice became dangerous. It became deep, his eyes began to glow white, as Lily's became a fire-like green and James' a fiery blue.
"No. The Elemental Guardians shall not defeat me!"
"We do not need to." Sirius explained.
He gripped Kathryn's hand.
"Magic born and magic made,
Swells from Magic's Glade.
One who abuses his power,
Begone from this place, this time, this hour!" The three standing Guardians incanted.
"NO!" Voldemort snarled as a mixture of sandstorm, cyclone and waterspout swirled about him, laced with bright fire. The mixture caught him and carried him away from them. They did not know where to.
"Kathryn!" Sirius exclaimed as James and Lily dismantled the barrier.
The girl's eyes snapped open and she lurched forward, gasping in air as though she had been suffocating, clutching her love's arms.
"What is it, Kat?" Sirius asked gently.
"My worst fear. Sirius, it's the people I love – dead. It's the fear that I have to conquer, or it will cripple me." Kathryn gasped. Tears stung her eyes. "I saw them all, Sirius, you, Mum, Dad, Jack, the twins, Adalia, Leila, Paul, Lily, James... Everyone. Dead, dying, being murdered... And I couldn't do anything to help. I couldn't prevent it."
"Hush, Kathryn. You're safe now." Sirius told her. "None of us are going anywhere."
Safe in Sirius' arms, Kathryn couldn't help hearing that cold, high-pitched voice again.
"It is you who shall kill them."
She bit her lip and decided solidly. 'No, I'll save them. I know what I'm looking for now.'

A/N: So, do you like it? I hope so. To think I probably wrote that before Christmas!So, to reviewers:
Thanks!
Oh, and Tina, technically Coventina isn't named after you! If you look in Chapter 2, she's named it there, just not Tina. Not to be ungrateful or anything! It's complete coincidence! Continue reviewing!
Anyway, bye bye.
I'm thinking of posting another of my fics up, but I'm trying to decided which one. And I've got tonnes of ideas. The problem is, most of them only last for two or three chapters and then fizzle out. Never mind.
Lol, Tanydwr
