It's Just you're Subconscious
Authors Note: -Sighs- Yeah, I know, it's been so long since my last update! I've gotten into an obsession with Sailor Moon and I still can't get out of it, but I figured I would update, and then go back to my obsession. :) So without further ado, here is an update!
We'll be fighting in the streets
with our children at our feet
and the morals that they worship will be gone
and the men who spurred us on
Sit in judgment of all wrong
Chapter Eight: Ravenclaw Hottie! Sienna's pinch!
Sienna woke up slowly the next morning she yawned and looked over, to see Ana standing over her, Ana looked down and saw the notebook in Sienna's hands. "Why are you sleeping with a notebook?" She asked raising an eyebrow at her friend.
Ana reached down to grab it, but Sienna finally remembered why she had the notebook, she flew up and yanked the notebook out of Ana's hands, "Um, it's nothing." She said getting up shakily.
Like she really wanted to tell her friend, she dreamt of her death. As if, she'd never tell her if she didn't have to. Still she thought all the same, it might be good to tell Ana. What if she was seeing the future? What if she could prevent deaths?
She wanted to spill it all out, but she couldn't tell if the pros or cons outweighed the other. The pros: she could save Ana, Ana could be prepared, and she could have someone to talk to. The cons: Ana could freak out and be paranoid, she could laugh and say 'don't be stupid', or maybe she'd stare at her blankly and then get upset for playing such a cruel joke.
Either way Sienna decided not to tell Ana, it would be best right now till she could consult a book on a deciphering dreams; she got out of bed and hid the notebook. She grabbed her school uniform and ran to the bathroom for a quick clean up.
Ana sat on the bed she had watched where Sienna had hid the notebook she wanted to know what was in there. She was going to pull an Idiosyncrasy. She waited till she heard the water turn on from the sink, and Sienna start to brush her teeth, Lily was still asleep, patrolling was hard on her. Ana slowly got up and crept towards the hiding spot which was under Sienna's mattress. She looked at the bathroom door for a moment Sienna was still brushing her teeth.
She turned back and lifted the mattress up she pulled the notebook out, she heard a noise in the bathroom and whipped around, Sienna now was starting the shower, she breathed a sigh of relief. She sat down on the bed and flipped through the pages.
There was a page on ideas for stories, there were some poems written down, a page of "Pros and Cons of Telling Remus I like Him" Ana sniggered at this, she flipped through some more and found, "How To Prank an Idiot Sister or Brother" Ana shook her head, Sienna had tons of crap written down.
"How to give the atomic wedgie" Ana sniggered a little louder then she should have, she looked around, but the shower was still going and Lily was still sawing logs. She turned back around and flipped through the pages a little more quickly.
There on the next page was a diagram on how to give the wedgie Ana nearly split a gut on seeing a stick man version of Snape, and a stick man version of James giving him the wedgie.
Ana shook her head, "Too much time on her hands." She muttered flipping through till she found, "Premonition Dream or not?" Ana stared at it for a moment, it was the last thing written in the notebook.
She read the body of the note:
In my dream there was mist and shadow, it seemed to have a red tinge to everything, I saw myself, Lily and James dying, then Ana and I, then Sirius. Remus was the only one that managed to escape. Peter, he was with a hooded man, he watched as we all died, he did nothing. The dream was confusing, one minute I was going to die with Ana the next Remus is calling me trying to get me to jump, but when I do the evil hooded man grabs me with a curse, and I can't move. I was in pain like never before, and every time someone died they would fall through a crack. It was like the world was coming to an end. Sirius had a frame around him, he was the last to die I had never seen him look the way he did, so gaunt, so hollow. He seemed to have gone insane; he was laughing a mirthless laugh, like he had lost his mind. Remus seemed to have survived, I was killed and then it went black as the evil man laughed like a hissing snake.
Ana sat there for a moment in shock, she let the notebook drop from her hands, she didn't grab her school bag, all she did was run, she ran out of the common room. She regretted even being nosey, or even reading it. What if it was a Premonition? She kept running till she couldn't she dropped to her knees in the hall outside of the common room and just stared.
Back in the Girls Dorm Room, Sienna saw Ana drop the notebook and run, she could see the fear on Ana's face. And this was just what Sienna didn't want to happen. She quickly got dressed and hid the notebook again and she brushed through her hair and let it hang today. She knew she would regret it later, but at this moment she didn't care. I should have known her nosey-ness. Sienna thought sighing.
She grabbed her school bag along with Ana's, and ran past Lily and down into the common room, Ana wasn't there, so she ran out of the portrait and looked to her left to see Ana staring.
Sienna sighed and sat down next to Ana who didn't move, "I had my reasons for hiding that notebook you know." Sienna said softly.
Ana only shrugged, Sienna stared at Ana, and she didn't know how to comfort her. Hell Sienna couldn't even comfort herself, let alone trying to do it to someone else.
"Dreams this serious are something you should tell friends." Ana snapped a little looking over at Sienna.
"And what? Only to have you end up like you are? I didn't want you scared!" Sienna replied.
Ana huffed, "At least I'm prepared now!" She said her voice rising a little scooting away from Sienna.
"Yeah and scared, now you're going to be paranoid and you're going to avoid everyone who loves and cares for you, because you're scared, that's not what I wanted that's why I didn't tell you." Sienna snapped looking at her friend. Ana hadn't had to see the dreams first hand or live them. She didn't have to have the torn feelings on whether or not she should tell her friends.
Ana only shrugged again, she grabbed her school bag from Sienna and stood up. Sienna stood up too, Ana began to walk away, "Well, later on I'm going to go to the library and I'm going to look at Dream Deciphering books, you can either join me and we can try and figure this out together, or avoid everyone like I said you will." Sienna said kindly, and with that Sienna walked down the steps to the Great Hall.
Sienna was highly wishing she had never taken Divination, because now she seemed to be 'gifted'. Sienna snorted, she sure didn't look at it as a gift more like an annoyance and now, her best friend was probably scared shitless. Of course she couldn't blame her. Sienna herself was scared out of her mind, what if it was true anyway? If so she was doomed to die along with her friends as the world went to hell.
She heard running footsteps behind her she turned around and saw Lily, "What's wrong with Ana?" She asked catching her breath, or at least trying, she bent over and leaned on her knees breathing heavily.
Sienna decided to cover for Ana, "Eh, she just didn't get a lot of sleep she gets quiet when she's tired." Sienna said as Lily stood up and Ana trailed behind them, they were late for breakfast as it were.
Ana smiled slightly in thanks, because if Lily would have found out, she would have gone overly motherly protective on Ana, and that was not what Ana or Sienna neither needed nor wanted right now. The walk to the Great Hall was quiet, till they neared it and heard the loud chatter of the students.
They found a seat and sat down Sirius seemed to be in one of his hyper moods. Sirius leaned over the table, one eyebrow raised so high it was twitching, in Sienna's eyes he looked like a total retard. Ana continued to try and ignore him, because she knew if she looked up she'd bust out laughing, "Ana my darling," He began smirking, "I was thinking maybe I could show you around the broom closet!" He said winking suggestively, waggling his eyebrows.
Ana still seemed to be in a bad mood and said, "Sirius, unless the broom closets have changed recently, then I think I know what they look like, besides they're so small all you would have to do is open the door and gesture in front of you and say, 'see'." She didn't look up once as she continued to pick at her food.
Although he didn't give up, he must have had too many chocolate frogs. Something must have infected Sirius' brain, he was laughing like a mad man; "I HAVE THE HOLY GRAIL!" He said holding up a gold goblet. James, Remus, Sienna, Ana and Lily all stared at him, as if he was from another planet.
Ana looked at him, not annoyed but not happy with him either, she said, "I thought the Holy Grail was being guarded by the Knights Templar. I doubt they would see a seventeen year old wizard and say, 'Hey kid! Can you watch this for us for a while?'"
Sienna sniggered, "Nice." She said as Sirius scowled, Lily was laughing to, so James laughed because he thought it might make him look good.
The rest of breakfast was uneventful, Sirius pouted, James flirted, Lily secretly flirted back, and Ana and Sienna quietly mulled things over.
"You okay?" Remus asked Sienna who had been playing around with her bacon zoning out on it.
Sienna looked up suddenly spaced out, "Yeah, I'm fine." She replied.
"You sure?" He asked again.
Ana sighed, "Remus, she's just tired, leave her alone." Ana snapped a little in annoyance, she was just annoyed with everything today.
Lily looked over, "You two are acting strange." She commented.
Sienna stood up and grabbed her bag, "We're fine Lily my sweet." Sienna said smiling happily, although it wasn't exactly what she felt. "Let's go Potions Class is up." She said.
Potions class was pretty easy, but they didn't escape, Professor Slughorn called Ana, Sienna, and Lily back, they all knew what was coming and it wasn't something Sienna enjoyed.
"I'm having a party tonight girls!" He said all jolly and happy, Sienna could care a less.
"Look," Sienna said pulling from his grasp, "I don't feel well, I won't be able to make it." Sienna said.
"Oho!" He said, "Do you need to visit the Hospital wing?" He asked concernedly.
Sienna shook her head, "No, it's nothing a good night of rest won't help." She replied walking out hearing, Lily and Ana's declines too, before they ran out.
Normally they went and mingled because it got them out doing homework, but Ana and Sienna didn't really feel like it and Lily wouldn't go with out her two best friends going with her.
Lily looked at Sienna and Ana, "We always go." Lily said, "It gets us out of Homework and me out of patrolling!" She said a little annoyed.
"We didn't feel like it." Ana replied.
"You two are acting weird, why can't you tell me anything! I'm you're best friend." Lily said glaring.
Ana shrugged, "Nothing is going on." She replied coolly.
Lily huffed, "Whatever." She said walking ahead.
Sienna chose this point to be snide, "Oh, but, Ana, a dream so serious we have to tell our friends." She said.
Ana glared, "Oh don't start, we both know how Lily is about this sort of thing she'd go all motherly on us." Ana replied bitterly.
"Well then my reason for not wanting to scare you should have been okay!" Sienna said stopping, as did Ana.
They were both glaring at each other, "I'm you're best friend!"
"I've known Lily longer then you!" Sienna argued stomping her foot in annoyance.
Ana looked hurt and angry, "Oh, so she's better then me?" She asked.
"No I didn't mean it that way!" Sienna replied.
"Well that's how it sounded!" Ana said looking really hurt.
"Well, I'm sorry, but, you don't want to tell Lily, because she'll go motherly and worry about us. Well my reason for not telling you should have been legit I didn't want to scare you!"
"I'm not a baby Sienna, don't treat me like one." Ana said.
Sienna sighed, "I know you're not, I just didn't want you live in fear." Sienna defended.
Ana huffed, "Whatever." And walked ahead, the rest of the day, was spent with Ana and Sienna, and Lily glaring at each other. Lily and Sienna were threatened with detention when they fought over a quill. Ana and Sienna nearly got in trouble when they kept flicking each other Sirius walked between them and got flicked.
He was going to howl but the girls kicked him in the shin to ensure silence. Sienna was relieved she now had free time. After dinner she ran to the Library and looked through books.
It was huge she didn't even know where to begin. She thought of asking the librarian but she didn't feel like it, so she just started down the isles. "What are you looking for?" Said a voice.
Sienna turned around and saw the hottest guy she had ever seen he had short black hair, and blue eyes, he was really tall too. He was in the school robes, and he was obviously a Ravenclaw but the colors he was wearing. Ooh la la! Wait, I have Remus…but dang, this guy his fine…wait, no Remus. She thought to herself.
Sienna smiled pleasantly, "I'm looking for Dream Deciphering books." She replied.
He grinned, "Oh, here I'll show you." He said, "By the way my name is Danny." He smiled charmingly.
Sienna nearly melted into a puddle of goo, "Sienna." She said shaking his hands, they walked down a few isles and ran into…Remus. Sienna's heart sank.
She looked up to see Danny looking through the books, "Whose he?" Remus whispered, looking threatened.
"A guy I met." Sienna said nonchalantly, besides she had no intention of dating Danny.
He glared, "Right, how long have you been going out with him?" He asked, more like demanded.
"I just met him!" She whispered harshly.
"Right." He said brushing past, she grabbed his arm and yanked on it frantically in annoyance and hurt.
"Can't you trust me?" She asked.
"I know, I'm a werewolf, therefore you don't care." He replied.
She huffed, "Remus I said yes to going out with you to Hogsmead, come on. I don't care that you are… a werewolf." She said lowly and hotly.
He only shrugged, "Whatever." He replied she had heard people say that too many times that day.
"Well if you can't trust me, maybe this won't work." She said angrily, she was so angry at that point she didn't see Remus' face fall.
"Fine, I'll find someone else to take me." He replied.
"Fine!" She said turning around to see Danny standing there curiously.
"Everything okay?" He asked concerned.
"Yeah, everything's fine, you find the books?" She asked smiling up at him.
Danny smiled, "Oh yeah, this way." He said leading the way, Remus looked hurt, but Sienna was so upset she ignored him and walked down the isle with Danny.
Sienna couldn't understand why he had to do that, she had never known Remus to get so jealous. She couldn't stand someone who couldn't trust her. She was burning mad, and she knew sometime she would regret it, but knowing her she'd be pissed for days to come and Ana would be the main person she would be ranting to.
Danny pointed out a whole section of books, he pulled out, "Premonition or not? By Miranda Lethe" He handed it to her, "I find this one the best, I've used it a few times, it really breaks you're dreams down so you understand them." He said.
He then looked through and a few books down pulled another one out called, "It's just you're subconscious, by Jessica Martin" He handed that one to her, "This is one, it's about how there's no such thing as being able to predict the future in dreams but, it points out things that could you help you." He stated.
"Hey." Said a voice behind Sienna, she turned around to see Ana smiling somewhat, "Came to help." She finished.
Sienna smiled brightly, "Great, this is Danny, he's helped me find some great books. Danny this is my friend Ana." She said introducing them.
Ana smirked at Sienna, but Sienna said nothing. Danny nodded and smiled at Sienna, "See you around." He said and walked off.
"He likes you." Ana commented.
Sienna shrugged it off, they both grabbed a bunch of different books and walked over to a table and sat down.
"Remus seems upset." Ana said looking up at Sienna.
Sienna rolled her eyes, "Let him be, he freaked out because he saw me with a guy. I'm with Sirius all the time and he doesn't freak out." Sienna commented.
"Yeah but he knows you like Sirius in a platonic way, he doesn't know Danny." Ana replied.
"I told him I wasn't do anything!" Sienna replied annoyed.
"Oh," Ana said, "Then he's being a jerk." She replied.
"Yeah, now I have to find a date to Hogsmead. We're not going together now." Sienna sighed.
Ana smirked, "Take Danny, he seems cool." She replied.
"Maybe, but that might feed into Remus' fears." She replied hesitantly.
"Yeah, but he obviously can't trust you, so just ask Danny to Hogsmead. If Remus is gonna be like that, he doesn't deserve to go to Hogsmead with you." Ana replied.
Sienna nodded and smiled, "Don't know what I would do without you." She said both girls laughed a little and then looked at the pile of books on the table it was going to be a long night.
A/n: As you see one of the books Danny gave to Sienna was the title of this story. It sort of has a meaning that will become clearer in later chapters. Hope you enjoyed this. I felt like putting a little drama in. Again I'm sorry for the delay!
