Dear Diary,

It's lunch, and again I'm sitting alone, today I was getting fed up with Vanessa so she is chatting with everyone else, what joy. OH and today in Defense against the dark arts, Lupin had a Boggart. A creature that mimics you worst fears! I heard rumor Harry was a Dementor and a full moon. I was terrified when I was asked to go. Lupin released the Boggart and the thing turned into a man in a cloak, I couldn't see his face but I knew he was starring, Starring right into my eyes.

I had Nightmare about the man in the cloak, and I fear it is he-who-must-not-be-named. The class feared that too, I heard gasps as the creature approached me. I couldn't say the spell, a spike ball was clogging my throat, and I was so terrified, I shake writing this. Anyway I couldn't even scream, I stepped back... he stepped forward, Lupin got on his guard still watching and waiting. I just stared and he stared right back. When I got so scared I tried to turn to run, even though I was in a classroom when I tripped on either my cloak or Malfoy's foot. I scooted back, the creature pulled out it's fake wand...Lupin had had enough he yelled out the spell pointing his wand toward the creature. "Ridiculous!" was the spell, and the Boggart's wand turned into flowers that shot water at him.

He retreated back into the closet. The class laughed as he retreated even though what happened wasn't funny, Lupin helped me up. After, I forced down the ball in my throat just enough to thank him. Ever since then I've been getting weird looks.

Rumors have started about the creature and me; People assumed that it was he-who-must-not-be-named. The bell will ring in a minute I must finish my lunch or I'll be sorry when I'm starving at Quitchedge practice. More later…

Amelia.

Dear Diary,

It's still the same day, but it's night again. After practice Lupin found me, he wanted to talk to me. "What do you think that creature was, Amelia?" he asked. I told him, "I'm afraid to say."

He looked at me. "The most scary thing about fear is fear itself," he told me, and then he said I should get going back to my common room. I wish I could have known that earlier then maybe I wouldn't have froze like I did.

Today, I hurried to History after lunch and made it to class a minute before the bell, the teacher was in the back room. So I took the "Mirrors a Mystery" book stuffed it in my backpack and sat down. The book left a hole in the shelf, he would suspect someone took it, so I pushed the books over and took the trinket off the top of the bookcase and put it where the book was missing, Clever huh!

The Students came in as I put the finishing touches on my plan.

Hopefully he won't know the book was gone, I'll return it when I'm finished.

OH I forgot completely about hogsmead. I was tired of browsing through the shops so I started walking on my way to Honeydews for a bite to eat, when I saw a blind man, he was sitting on the curve playing the most beautiful Blues song I have ever heard.

I stopped and dropped a coin in the hat he had laid out. When he stopped playing and said, "young lady I think I have something you need." It was incredibly weird. "I have a product for you," he continued. He pulled up a small black box, it had many vials of three sizes, small, really small, and tiny. They held a clear liquid, "Miss do you know what these are?" I shook my head, remembering he couldn't see I opened my mouth to speak but he continued, "Miss these are Vials of invisibility potion." I was so astounded… I sort a dropped my jaw… But anyway… "Do you want me to buy them?" I asked, "I think you need them." "Sir, how can you tell? Your blind, I see that as impossible." "When you lose your sight, you can see more things." Okay by then I thought he was mad, but if he was right I might need that potion, we came into an odd silence, I was thinking about what I could do with the potion. "I'll take a few." "Miss I need to explain, the smallest vile will last 15 minutes, and the biggest one an hour, the middle 30 minutes. What would you like?" "Hmm, Two hours, two 30 minutes, and two 15 minutes please." He handed me the vials, and I handed him 6 galleons, "Just 4 Miss." I thought that was cheap but paid him anyway, as I left I heard him start playing again. I was also surprised that he sold that to a student, who knows!

I have been reading the Mirror book; did you know that some Mirrors could take you into your own mind? That is so weird, but what fascinated me the most was the Mirror of Aragon. I mean that Mirror can show people what their hearts desire was, People have been wasted away in front of that Mirror, I mean Oh My Gosh. Also it has been so destructive to the witch's and wizard's that it has been relocated 17 times, Last seen in Hogwarts! What if I found it? Is it still in this school? What is my hearts desire? I have so many questions, ever since I read that paragraph I have been itching to find it. That's it I have decided to look for it, but what if someone found out? I must keep it secret, even from Vanessa. I have an idea, it's that I …wait, the man at Hogsmead, He…and I…. But he's Blind… But he knew…. This is very creepy. Yeah I'm really creped out, I guess I really wasn't thinking when I bought the vials, well I guess I bough them out of pity for him, But how the heck did he know I was going to need them? Do they even work? How did he come up with an invisibility potion?

AHH, again with the questions, okay, now it's time I really start investigating.

I'm going to start with telling you something I've never told anyone. My mother, only my dad knows and me of course. But my Mother, Sophie, well you see… OH…. she was killed by Voldemort! That retched man, he went from house to house killing innocent people, unfortunately my mother was one of the people he killed. I wasn't home when it happened; my father had to go to Diagon ally to fetch something for my mother, I wanted to go so badly, so I went with him leaving my mother home alone. When we came home she was laying on the floor… it was much too late, as we tried to tend her, we heard more screams from the houses next to us. We immediately jumped up and ran to the house. HE was in there.

He was trying to murder my neighbor, I saw my dad pull out his wand. I had such a reaction. I actually saved my neighbors life as He-who-must-not-be-named muttered his evil words I stole my dad's wand and used the only spell I have ever heard, Incindo uno. I set he-who-must-not-be-named a flame. My father pulled me away, and scuttled me home and took his wand from my hands. My neighbor followed. We ran as we saw, he-who-must-not-be-named run out of the house, and jump into the water of the lake when he came back out he was in desperate search for me. But he gave up quickly and ran away to another neighbor hood. My father declared me the bravest girl he had ever seen, But ever since that night I would get a nightmares or bad dreams every night, until my father took me to the doctors allowing my to take a dreamless sleep potion.

You could say I should be scared that he might come back to get me, No… Harry is the one that should be more scared than me. I don't worry. That's the start of my investigation. I got to say I have never been able to TELL any ONE that. My Father and me are the only people that speak of it, but you are a major exception. Paper is much more patient then man.

I never wrote down my plan! I want to find the Mirror of Erised. I JUST SO HAPPENED to have some invisibility potion that will allow me to walk around Hogwarts after hours. So I have decided to do so. But how the heck did that blind man know?

Well I need to sleep but not before I tell you about the Honors program. It's about extra classes; I have received a time turner. It will allow me to go back in time to relive the hour in another class. It's very tiring. Yawn….

Amelia.
