Chapter 5
Peter awoke with the sun shining on him full force. He rose from the bed, then fell back on it, as if a force pushed him over. Peter felt a presence in the room, but could not sense them in any way but telepathic connection. He closed his eyes and a firey image of Akasha flashed into his mind. "Im waiting Peter.", her echoey voice said, and all went black. He opened his eyes adn pondered the vision. You just feel different that she's not here, he told himself, gathering his things and heading to Divination.
"You must invision yourself seeing without seeing. Use your inner eye to see for you, and it will tell you your future.", Professor Trelawney said, focusing on her own crystal ball. Peter focused as hard as he could on the ball, and it swirled black, like ink in water, and Hogwarts castle could be seen in the night. Peter gazed on as the image scrolled above the astronomy tower where, high in the sky, the Dark Mark could be seen, and a figure was trown from the tower. Peter's eyes went wild and he jumped out of his seat. "Peter, my dear, what did you see?", Trelawney asked, looking calmly at him. "Nothing Professor.", he said, diciding to share the information with her after class.
After class let out, Peter waited until everyone left, then he approached the Divination teater. "Professor, I would like to talk with you about earlier."
"You mean when you saw a vision in your orb."
"Yes I saw Hogwarts castle from Hogsmaede and the Dark Mark was floating above the astronomy tower, and someone was thrown from the tower."
"Did you see who?"
"No, that when I stopped."
"Well try again. Here...", she said, pullin a crystal ball from behind her desk. Peter conjured a chair and sat down, focusing on the crystal ball. It began to swirl again, and the same scene flashed. When the figure hit the ground, it flashed to Dumbledore's face, and zoomed out to a full body picture. Harry and Hagrid rushed over to Dumbledore. Peter pulled away. "Who is it?", Professor Trelawney asked, interested in the vision. Peter swallowed, "Professor Dumbledore." Professor Trelawney's eyes jolted wide, "Dumbledore! Peter, this cant be right. Dumbledore my boy? Everyone knows he is the greatest wizard to have lived, second to Merlin! There is no possible way that he would be thrown from the tower. I will inform him, but I doubt it will happen. i must go.", she said, gathering her things and showing him out of the classroom.
Peter exited and watched as Professor Trelawney rushedin the direction of Dumbeldor's offic Peter went to his common room where Amy and Brad were plying wizard's chess, Brad listening to Metal in his headphones. Amy beat him and they noticed Peter was standing there. Peter rushed out of the common room and headed towards the Room of Requirement, passing everyone he could think of occupying it, including Cho Chang, Roger Davies, Zacharias Smith, and Jeremy Stretin. He reached the plain stone wall space the room occupied, and paced back and forth, thinking, I need somewhere quiet to go with a crystal ball. he repeated the thought everytime he walked past the wall. Soon enough a door appeared in the wall and Peter entered, slamming the door just in time to ditch Brad and Amy, who were following him.
He stayed there for several hours, seeing more visions and learning more about the year to come. Peter resumed this activity everyday after classes. Winter passed, spring came and went. It was nearing the end of the year, and Peter had seen a vision of a small band of students including Harry Potter, Ron Weasley, Hermione Granger, Ginny Weasley, Loony Luna, and Neville Longbottom fighting a large group of Death Eaters in the Ministry of Magic. He then saw a small flash of Akasha waiting for something, and a blue blur tackling her. Peter knew he must go to the Ministry. Peter rushed from common room to common room, retrieving Amy, Brad, Jeremy, Michelle, Nicole, and Stormy and told them about his vision. "That's no good.", Stormy said, looking shocked. "We've got to help them.", Peter stated, pointing at his eyes, "I've got a score to settle. Michelle, Amy, we'll see how useful you are in combat soon enough." Together they flew to the Ministry. When they arrived, Peter busted through the registration manikin and hurried to the prophecy containment room. On the way, they met a few ambushing Death Eaters and Stormy, Jeremy, Brad, and Nicole stayed behind fighting the Death Eaters as Peter, Amy, and Michelle rushed on. A few more Death Eaters surrounded Peter and the girls. One shot Michelle with stunner and it went right through her.. or so it seemed. Peter had seen her move out of the way and back into place too fast for mortal eyes to see. Michelle... she's not a normal human. It's just like I sensed., Peter thought, evading the attack of a Killing Curse sent flying his way. Peter watched as Michelle's skin curled and crawled, her body forming into a bulky demonic form. The Death Eaters stopped attacking and stared as the demonic Michelle came at them, eliminating them with one sweep. Peter rushed on as more Death Eaters attacked, but not until after killing a few.
Peter kept going until he sensed a powerful creature like himself nearby. He looked to the left and saw Akasha waiting at the end of a hall. Peter was so filled with rage for everything she had done to him and everyone around him. He was full of anger and energy that he used to increase his speed and strength to the point where he was already slashing at Akasha, whom was prepared for the attack and countered with her own attacks. The two lamnia battled on, not minding the crowd that had now gathered around them, Brad, Stormy, and Jeremy were watching with Nicole in Brad's arms. A few Death Eaters had come to investigate the show and did not even notice the small band of inhuman creatures standing across the hall from them.
Akasha punched at Peter, whom blocked each one, and returned with a powerful counter. They started flying, and wrestling in midair. "Sorta reminds you of the Matrix doesnt it, Peter?", she growled, digging her nails into his shoulders. "Shut up Akasha!", he grunted, throwing her off and using martial arts mixed with guerilla tactics to fight her. She countered with the same strategy, and the fight went on until Akasha threw him onto a suit of armor holding a sword outwards. He fell upon it and laid there, hissing from the gut wound.
"So I see that angelic creature has dispersed.", Akasha mocked, setting sight upon Brad, "But where have the other two weaklings gone?" "I killed them both.", Peter replied, attempting to released the blade from his waist. "Ah, so you replaced them with weaker children. Interesting. I pity you Peter. Your missing me has forced you to absorb mortal muggles into a coven of sorts, by draining them. Ah, Michelle. It has been too long.", Akasha said, noticing her.
"Akasha.", she replied, nodding her head and glaring. Amy put a hand on her shoulder to stop her from transforming and attacking. The Death Eaters had finally noticed the group and were preparing to attack but Akasha disarmed them, literally.
Peter had finally freed himself from the impalement, and rushed at the overconfident monster that was his mother. She swiftly pinned him against the wall and bit his throat. He could feel parts of Nicole, Jeremy, and Nicole leaving him, along with parts of himself. She detached herself when she heard a popping noise behind her and looked over her shoulder. Peter looked as well and in front of the dead Death Eaters, whom had died from blood loos, stood Lord Voldemort. Before Akasha could even decide what to do, Peter grappled her and drained her to the last drop, leaving a small amount so that she would not die entirely. Voldemort disapparated before Peter could go after him. Akasha screamed and turned to stone, Peter busted a hole in the roof and launched the stone Akasha far off in the direction of America. He then collapsed on the cold, tile floor. Peter passed out from the exhaustion of the battle.
