The week seemed to pass more quickly than anyone could have expected. The banquet was an exquisite feast full of the grandous meals anyone could imagine. Natalie piled her plate full as much as she could. This would be her last good meal for a few months and she intended to go out with a bang. The walls were decorated with the slytherin banner. Draco sat proudly in his seat. He couldn't wait to tell his father he had won the house cup. He was so proud of himself.

Dumbledore went up to the podiem and cleared his throat. A hushed silence came across the room. The slytherins straightened their backs and awaited to be rewarded for their hardwork all year. Though most of it was cheated out of.

"Hello everyone, This has been another wonderful year. I hope you have had a wondeful year to. You have reunited with old friends, made new ones, have learned so much, gone on some adventures and in all of that helping your houses compete in the house cup. In fourth place with 310 points gryiffendoor," a quite dissapointed clap went around the hall, "In third place with 360 huffelpuff," a louder clap now, "In second place with 420 Ravenclaw," cheers went throughout the table with loud claps going the room, "and finally the winner of the house cup with 460 points slytherin," the loudest cheers were sent throughout the room. The slytherins stood up from there seats cheering loudly.

The roars went quite. He wasn't done yet.

"Yes congradulations but in light of certain new events some new points must be rewarded," mumers were heard throughout the room. "To hermine granger for her wit and cleverness in the face of danger fifty points," claps came from the gryiffendoor table with loud cheers following, "To ronald weasly for the best game of wizards chess this school has seen in years fifty points," more loud cheers were heard throughout the room. Poor huffelpuff was now in last place. They were pretty close ravenclaws now. "To harry potter for his bravery and relieng on insinct and saving this school I reward sixity points," that was it they were tied with slytherine. Natalie was a little dissapointed that she was in third now. "and finally it takes a lot a courage to stand up to your enemies but it takes even more to stand up to your friends. I give ten points to neville longbottom."

The room exploded from the gryffendoor table in celebration. Natalie slammed her head on the table. She was proud of her place in second but now that she was in third it seemed as if her efforts were useless this entire time. She looked back to Dracos who's once proud look was now replaced with distain.

"I believe a change in decoration is in order," he said. Now the once green and white banners were replaced with red and gold. Natalie still clapped for her many friends in the house. She could tell that hermine was probably the happiest girl right now.

The banquet ended. The bags were being loaded up onto the train as the children exited the great hall. They made their way to the train platform.

"Ummm I will see you at the end of the summer okay," draco said as crabbe and goyle came to his side like the henchmen they were. Natalie expected to sit next to him on the train like when they first came here. I guess he wanted to sit next to his other friends. Natalie could understand. She could sit with Luna.

"Okay, I'll write," natalie waved goodbye following luna onto another cart. Draco waved slowely as they climbed onto their cart. Luna and Natalie occupied a cart with Neville. Luna gave natalie her adress along with neville. She had become create friends with the little accident proned boy.

In another cart Draco sat alone with the two idoits across from him. He wished that he was in a cart with natalie. He couldn't have a conversation with these two. All they wanted to do was make trouble and stuff themselves like the pigs they were.

Natalie played with the locket on her neck as luna and neville discussed the pros and cons of mass producing jillyweed and selling it at pools and such.

"I seriously think it would be so much fun to breath underwater naturally when I go to the lake or the pool. I would pay any amount for that," luna said.

"yes I know its fun but its a very painful process growing gills and fins. Plus you can't just get out of the water once you have them. It takes two hours for them to wear off. Now lets say there is some emergency and you need to get out of the pool but there is still an hour left on the jillyweed. You are stuck in the pool or you will suffacate,"

"You have no sense of imagination neville," she pouted.

"I am imagining all the things that can go wrong," he said. Luna sighed and looked over to her friend. Natalie was laying on her back staring at her lockets picture inside. Luna smiled her usual friendly smiled and knelt down on the ground so she was eye to eye with her friend. She look at the picture in the locket.

"Is that the first day of school," she asked. Natalie nodded. Natalie looked at Draco and her smiling at the camera. The picture was moving with them. There was still another slot for a future phot. Maybe she could put them at graduation in there.

"Oh I have been meaning to ask you. On the first day of school you said you sensed something strange linked with my magic. Did you ever figure out what it was?"

"Sorry I did some research and even wrote my dad about it. He said maybe when you come visit we can figure it out," luna said. Natalie nodded.

"Thanks anyway, I have been having these weird vision lately also. You know that night when the troll was in the dungeon and harry ron and hermine stopped them. Well I have been having visions about that night. They are like dreams but they come to me when I am awake," she confessed.

"Really? What do you see?" neville asked curious.

"Well Professor quill just entered the great hall and everyone was panicking. I can't move. I feel afraid. There is this weird feeling inside of me. Like something is going to go wrong and its going to be my fault. Then I remeber running. Then snape is taking me somewhere. He is wearing these odd gloves. He locks me in the headmaster office and tells me to stay there and leaves. I can't get out. That feeling keeps getting stronger like I am about to explode. I start crying and singing myself this lullaby my mom use to sing to me. I was wondering if that could linked to what you sensed. I feel like I lived thru that but I was in the ravenclaw common room when the troll attacked,"

"I don't remember you being there. What you may be experincing is a sense of deja vu. Or in your case a lost memory. One maybe someone tried to get rid of," luna said.

"Why would someone not want her to remeber that," neville asked. Natalie thought more.

"There is something else that happened in the vision but when its over I can't remeber it. I know something happened but i just can't remeber what," she said.

"That is very odd," neville said. A knock came from the door.

"Anything from the trolley sweeties," the old woman asked. Natalie sat up and got out her small coin pouch. She had two coins left. Natalie prayed they had chocolate frogs left. She had yet to taste one.

"Chocolate frogs?" she asked nervously. The woman nodded handing her two boxes as natalie gave her one of her coins. She opened the box carefully catching the frog before it leapt out the box. It squirmed in her hand for a bit when she realized her mistake. What if this was like a living thing. Would she be eating this frog alive. It was still chocolate but still.

She dissmissed the notion and took a brave bite as the frogs movemnts grew to a halt. She had never tasted such wonderful chocolate before. It melted in her mouth smoothly. She finished her frog and put the other on in her pocket. She would save it for sometime in the summer.

The train came to a stop as they arrived at the station. Luna hugged natalie goodbye as well as neville. They all exited the train meeting up witht their parents to be taken home. Natalie searched the platform for her caretaker. There were too many faces she couldn't find her. She wished she held a sign or something.

"Natalie!" she looked behind her to find her caretaker and head of the orphanage. The woman was old but still strong. She was in her early fifties. Her hair was tied into a tight bun. She wore a tailored suite with a pencil skirt that fit tightly around her pantehouse. Natalie frowned and walked towards her.

"Hello Miss Manerva," she curtsied roboticlly as she had done many times in the years before. Miss Manerva worked in the ministry. She was in charge of abandoned wizard children. She was said to be the best. She was strict beileived a lot in disapline.

"Get your bags," she said turning away from her. Natalie found her suitcase and vannessas cage with her meowing in it, "and shut that cat up!" she ordered. Natalie petted vannessa thru the bars to quite her down. This was going to be a long summer.
