Disclamer: I do not OWN Harry Potter...
Thanks to DarkDolphins, Flower123, and Time and Fate, for reviewing!
Chapter 9!
It took Lily, James, Rachelle, and Harry a few minutes to realize what had just happened. "What just happened?" Lily asked Rachelle, who looked anything but happy.
Rachelle ignored Lily's question, and jumped out of the Jeep, and went right over to the three teenagers, that were trying to catch there breath, and Tally having to use her inhaler. "What. In. The. World. Did. You. Do. Tally?" Rachelle asked threw gritted teeth.
Tally looked over at Nina, who's tanned skin was wet, and covered in mud from the ground that was now soaked. Jesse cleared his throat, and said in the voice he only used with authority figures, "We were just sitting there, and all the sudden Tally gets real quite, and she starts to glow, and then says in this voice that was not hers, that we had to leave the house, like right then!" Jesse said, "At first Nina and I thought she was fooling around, but then the glow went away, and the ground started to shake, and I yanked Tally out of her chair, and we ran outside, just as water came out of all the pipes, and the floor started to open up."
Rachelle turned to Tally, and said in a calm voice, "Are you getting your seer powers back?"
Tally looked rather embarrassed, as her friends, and her family, who had just gotten out of the Jeep looked down at her. She nodded, ashamed. She had always hated seeing the future, and had taken a potion that was supposed to make the visions stop, but only made them worse for a few months, and then made them go away completely, till now. "At least it saved our lives?" Tally said in a 'don't blame me, please' voice, that little kids used when they said things like 'I dunno how it happened'.
The fire department decided to show up at that time, just as Rachelle introduced Tally to her parents. The Ambulance showed up soon later. One of the neighbors had called when they saw the house, after what they thought was an earthquake. It had really just been a pipe line that had ruptured, and exploded under the house. Rachelle didn't believe that it was just a random event.
The Paramedic was checking over Tally, while her parents and brother talked to her. "Are you sure she's okay?" James asked the young male Paramedic that had a name tag that said TODD. If her parents hadn't been standing right there Tally would have flirted with 'TODD', even though he was at least 8 years older than her, but that was just Tally's way.
"She's perfectly fine, Mr. Potter." Todd said smiling as he put a plain yellow band aid on Tally's right knee, that had gotten scraped when she had slipped in the wet grass, and landed on a rock.
The Potters had to go to a hotel for the night, since even magic couldn't fix up the house in a few hours. Lily and James went to bed early because of jet lag, along with Rachelle, who was just plan tired. Harry stayed up with Tally. They were sharing a two twin bed room, that connected to there parents room. Tally had taught Harry how to play her favorite game, poker.
When they got bored from playing cards, Tally turned the T.V., or telly as Harry would say, on. "What channels MTV on?" Tally asked her brother, as she lay on her stomach on her bed. Harry looked on the sheet of paper that listed the channels for the T.V.
"42." Harry said, "What is MTV?"
"It's a really cool channel sometimes, but most of the time it's a total drag." Tally said, flipping the channel to 42.
"Sweet sixteen," came the voice of a girl on the T.V.
"I love this show!" Tally said, turning to her brother, "All these dumb rich girls go nuts over there 16th birthday partys, and get to cuss out there parents, and still get what they want! It's hilarious!"
"It sounds dumb." Harry said.
"You can't look at it like a normal show! You have to look at it like a comedy! I want to be on it for my 16th birthday party. Since our parents are so rich, I could so get on! All those dumb girls from my old boarding school would beg me to let them go so that they could get on T.V. Perfect payback time!" Tally said.
After watching 10 min. of 'Sweet 16' with Tally, Harry started to see the humor, even though it was kind of hard for him to understand some of the people with there American accents.
A/N just so you know, I dunno if I can update tomorrow, because I got stuff after school that means I can't get on the computer tomorrow most likely, so I am apologizing now. Plus I am getting really sick, and almost couldn't write this chapter today, cause I can hardly stay awake, and am sneezing and coughing a lot.
