A/N: I saw the new Harry Potter movie! Yay! Don't worry. I won't spoil the surprise. I need more reviews! Is that too much to ask? I even accept…gulp criticism. If you see anything that you think needs to be absolutely changed, then don't hesitate. This is really hard for me to write, you know. I'm starting to lose confidence in this story, but I'm having too much fun writing it to delete it. Just to let you guys know, I have always accepted anonymous reviews. It's 12:31 A.M. Wooo!
Chapter 9: Memory Lane
Natalie, Raquel, Ginny, Hermione, Ron, and Jordan were in the common room. They were very bored. Natalie's spirits had dropped considerably when Fred and George left. She knew that George would have to leave after the ball, but darn it! He was her boyfriend! She missed him! Raquel didn't seem as concerned that her boyfriend, Fred, had left. It was just pathetic Natalie. To fight the boredom, Jordan suggested that they played darts.
"Jordan. Don't you remember what happened last time?" said Raquel wearily.
Flashback (1 year ago)
Natalie, Raquel, and Jordan were at an arcade.
"Let's play darts!" suggested Natalie.
Raquel and Jordan had agreed. Raquel had managed to get a dart in the center of the board, but it wasn't a perfect bull's eye. Now it was Natalie's turn. She didn't even get a dart on the board.
"Jordan? Can you go collect the darts for me?" she asked. As Jordan was collecting the darts, she realized that she had dropped a dart at her feet. When she picked it up, she knew what she had to do. She carefully aimed at her target. Sweat trickled down her face. She licked her lips. She only had one chance. It was 1 to a million that she hit her target dead center, but she knew that she couldn't give up. She pulled the dart back, carefully locking her eyes on the target. Her gaze was unblinking. In one swift movement, she hurled the dart forward. The dart zoomed toward the target. Natalie remained in the same position as when she let go of the dart. Was it going to hit the target? Yes. Yes! YES!
"AHHH! MY EYE!" screamed Jordan as he tried to pull the dart from his eye.
No.
"OH MY GOD! Natalie! How could you hit Jordan's eye? He was standing 5 feet away from the board!" shrieked Raquel.
"Darn it. I was aiming for his forehead," said Natalie.
End of Flashback
"No. I don't remember at all," said Jordan.
"Great then! Let's play!" said Natalie happily.
12 minutes later
Harry ran in screaming. "Guys! I just realized! I-Wait. Why does Jordan have a dart in his eye?"
"Every time! It happens every time! Why can't I hit his forehead? What am I doing wrong?" said Natalie angrily.
"You're not doing it right because you don't believe you can. If you believe hard enough, anything can happen. If you remember this, all of your dreams will come true," said a mysterious voice that came from nowhere.
"Wow. I never thought of it like that," said Natalie, who was no longer angry.
Harry just stood there. Finally, he remembered why he came in there. "Guys! It's terrible! I just remembered that I wasn't supposed to come to school this year! I was supposed to go after Voldermort! I'm so stupid! Now who will save the world?" said Harry.
"Moldybut? It will be easy to kill him," said Natalie. "All we have to do to kill him is-"
A/N: Wooo! Cliffhanger!
