Chapter 12
Differences in life
"The bottle! Quick you fool give me the bottle!" Nia said to her brother. He knew it hurt, it always hurt the first time you retreived a memory, but the memory of a dream you had! That must have really hurt. Butu she still came through. She always did what she could to help, well, that is if you weren't some snot nose rich kid who really didn't deserve it. Once he handed the bottle to her, she quickly put it in and let her wand fall to her side.
"Merlin! Never again, I swear I will never do that again!" she stated. "That's my sister." Mark saiud and then hugged her tight. "Shade? Shade, you prat! Let me go, beleive it or not, I like being able to breeth." he laughed and let her go.
"Well, we'll go check this out, in the meantime, go and have some fun. Classes are canceled, so enjoy your selves." Madame said and walked out. "Have fun dear." her mother kissed her forhead and left. "And remember, if you want to come home early, your complettely welcome." she smiled at her dad, always the same with him. The rest of the teachers past her then last was Mark. "I really think you should come home, you know. I've already decided to cancel everything we've planned. And don't you give me that look, you need to relaxe the next couple weeks." he ruffled her hair in that annoying brotherly way and left.
"So, Vix? What do you think will happen now?" Melanie said coming up behing her friend. "I'm not sure, but I have this feeling. Like something dramatic is going to happen."
Madame Debarbarac's Office
"We were right." Madame stated while looking away from her pensieve. "But that means she can't stay here, or even come back next year! It's to dangerous, what if this happens again? People have already tried to find are great great aunts sprite. But they couldn't, and they wont be able to either!" Mark burst out in a frustrated tone. "Where will she go!"
Madame Debarbarac, Mark, Mme et M DuBois and Dumbledore were the few left. Yet all pondered on how to deal with this. Naomi's parents had no clue as to what to do, she was smart, that much was sure, but she still needed to finish school. Mark's mind was going wild with frustration, then it seemed that the Head of BeauxBatons was struck with an idea.
"Hogwarts!" Madame said delited with her brilliance. "Can't she attend Hogwarts?" she turned to look at Dumbledore. "Please! She's a fabulous student and a very dedicated friend." she seemed to be pleading now. "And maybe those boys can get her on a broom again." Mark and his fathered beemed at their brilliance. The funniest thing happened just then, Mme DuBois, or should we say Danielle, smacked her husband on the arm while rolling her eyes. That is proof of their age. Surprising they were alot younger then most thought.
"You two are absoloutly horrible." she said in a tisk tisk tone. Just to make a point, they're as weird as their own children. "But really, what do you think Headmaster. We would truely appreciat it."
And then Albus Dumbledore, Headmaster of Hogwarts School for Witchcraft and Wizardry, had to make a decision he never expected to have to make.
"So Nia? What do you think about all of that's happening anyways? I mean, it seems to me you have been going more then any of us has." Remus asked. Nia shrugged. "I really have no clue. I barely remember half of what happened. Ask her." she finished with a finger pointing toward Mel.
"Do you really want to know the truth?" they nodded. "Well, it was like every bit of energy was being drained. Merlin, did she ever get pail, and it was scary, you know, seeing your best friend lying there, like someone or something else was controling them. It looked so hard, to fight with something inside you, like trying to get over a fear, it's hard but it's all in your head. This morning, when she fainted, it looked like she was... dead. Like it was her but not, body but not soul." the boys seemed to fully comprehend what she meant. They understood alright, more then all of them wished.
"As long as your alright now. That's all that matters, remember that." Remus whispered.
"Vixxie!" they all turned to find Mark running behind them. "I need to talk to you for a minute." he finished when he reached them. "What is it?" Nia asked. "Well, are you sure you want me to say it infront of them too?" once his sister nodded, her started. "We found out why you were having those dreams, and how and everything else. It's just, you see, one of the quirks about the dreams is that you only have them here. The girl in your dreams, well, she's our great great aunt. Louis was her boyfriend. And what's more, she died about 2 weeks after he beat her up. They say her ghosts still haunts the school. But she could hurt you more then she has, and since you only have the dreams here, you're moving schools." he flinched, expecting something drastically painful. When he opened his eyes, he saw his little sister's jaw opening and closing. She was speachless, and that was that.
"Which one?" she asked quickly. "You remember that old man in the Hospital Wing?" she nodded. "He's the Headmaster of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry..." and guess who cut him off. "And that's where I'll be going for my seventh year, right?" he nodded.
"Well, boys, we'll have our work cut out for us next year." James smiled, on of those Marauder smiles. And in a surprisingly, really scary way, Sirius and Remus did the same. The ideas forming in those boys heads would absoloutly trechorous to all those who saw them!
But, Mel and Nia had turned to eachother, and had grave looks on their faces. Seventh was supposed to be your best year and now the two best friends would have to seperate. Classes would be different, friends would be different, ways of life would be different. "And you could have made Head Girl! Now, you of all people have to leave! No, it's just not fair! Why can't Derek leave in your place!" Mel demanded frantically. "Simple. Because that ghost wont go with him. I have to go, it's not like I want to, I just have to!"
Then Mel started to cry, they hugged and headed toward their dorm. "And anyways, it wouldn't be very nice if Hogwarts had to deal with 2 Malfoys now would it..." they heard Nia whisper. The grave look on Mels face stayed the same as it was before, but she knew that Nia had to go.
Nia had also decided earlier that she was to go home tomorrow and the two wanted to spend there last day at school together in the greatest way.
