Visions

Alice POV

"I got the door," I said as I knew that everyone could hear me. Standing there was an old man wearing a velvet cloak. I assumed he was a wizard. He stared at me for a while with grave eyes and whispered, "Are you the family of Adele Hailey Cullen?"

I nodded. By reflex, I tried to see Adele's future but found it blank. At first, I thought she was dead but when I remembered that she might be in an anti-muggle area.

"I'm afraid I have bad news. She was found seriously injured this early afternoon and has been sent to St Mungo's Hospital for Magical Maladies and Injuries. I can bring you all there now."

By then, I was sure everyone heard what he said and was ready to leave.

"I am going to apparate there, so everyone has to hold on to me." If I weren't so worried, I would have been really excited. I've always wanted to know how they went around.

We disappeared from the room but when I tried to breathe, just a reflex, I found myself feeling as if I was suffocating. Just when I thought it might be a trap, we arrived in a room with beds. On one of them, I could see Adele was unconscious. She did not even move, not even twitch.

Esme sat beside her and started saying, "You'll be ok, definitely ok."

I was suddenly bombarded with visions of a strange hall, but it was chaotic. There were many dead bodies and I could see a boy, more like a teenager, with a lightning scar on his head, was walking in circles with a snake like man. He was tall, skeletally thin, whiter than a skull, with wide livid scarlet eyes and a nose that was as flat as snake's, with slits for nostrils. It even hurt to look at him. I also saw many people surrounding them, watching the fight.

The boy started to say speak and the more he spoke, the more tortured the man looked, but there was one particular statement that caught my attention.

"I know things that you don't, Tom Riddle." That caught me off guard. Tom Riddle, maybe there were a lot of Tom Riddles in this world but somehow, I couldn't help but think it really was him, my sister's friend. Something told me that I had to take note of the boy's name, Harry Potter. I had a feeling that he would be really important in the future.

"Avada Kedavra," a bright green flash errupted out of Tom's wand.

At the same time, the boy shouted, "Expelliarmus."

The green flash collided with Harry's and disappeared. A girl who looked awfully like Adele ran as fast as a vampire could, in front of Tom with her palms out and somehow, a flash of green light, identical to the first, spurted out of her hands towards Tom and she ran away quickly.

The one with the power to vanquish the Dark Lord approaches... born to those who have thrice defied him, born as the seventh month dies... and the Dark Lord will mark him as his equal, but he will have power the Dark Lord knows not... and either must die at the hand of the other for neither can live while the other survives... the one with the power to vanquish the Dark Lord will be born as the seventh month dies..

When I came back to reality, I saw Adele first and she reminded me of the girl in my visions. I had a feeling that the vision was not the normal ones I had normally. Maybe a prophecy of someone? Edward was looking at me with wide eyes, as if he knew what the vision meant. The rest of the family did not notice Edward and me leaving the room as they were tending to Adele, especially Carlisle.

Who do you think that girl was? It was one of those conversations where I thought and he read my mind. He would think of something to say and I would know, therefore people would see us staring at each other.

She looked a lot like Adele, but she was a vampire.

I wonder how I saw the place; I think it was an anti-muggle place. I have a feeling it is Hogwarts.

I thought you couldn't see places that are anti-muggle?

I don't know.

Try looking at what will happen to Adele. I saw her lying on a bed but somehow, the rest was blank.

See what happens if I think of going to Hogwarts. He sounded hopeful. Surprisingly, I saw a beautiful castle with a really big lake. My eyes widened at that and I got really excited.

"I wonder why?" he thought aloud.

Let's get back to the point; do you think it was a prophecy?

Your visions are subjective, remember?

Yah, but weird things are happening right now, aren't they?

I don't know, maybe? Who do you think that Harry Potter guy was? Do you think the Tom Riddle is the one we know?

I don't think so; he wasn't so evil when we knew him.

But you had weird visions of him and I didn't like his personality, you should see his mind. Maybe it is him; do you think we should track him down?

I have a feeling that we are not to mess with this, but I do you remember the part where these sentences just came up to my mind?

What do you think it means: and either must die at the hand of the other for neither can live while the other survives. I know the dark lord is referring to that Tom Riddle. We had to take note of these names in the future, but my thoughts soon trailed off, who do you think the girl was?

Do you think it could be Adele?

No, not unless she is going to die, if not Carlisle would not allow it.

Our eyes widened at the same time when we thought, she's going to die.
