The Letters

…...

At the beginning of the day eight owls were sent to eight students. The letters contain confidential information that only the receivers can read. What lies inside those letters will change the receivers' lives forever. All is written the same, excluding the names, the letters read as such.

Dear …,

This may come as a shock to you. Or maybe it won't. I have recently discovered a useful piece of information regarding a certain Dark Lord...

… What I am about to tell you is to never be repeated. There is a prophecy. We have come to believe that you are part of the prophecy.

Eight children.

Eight animals.

One destiny.

…...

The fox that is called the brightest of her age.

Hermione Granger was checking the muggle mail sent to her house when an owl came from nowhere dropping a letter straight into her hand. Walking inside and activating the wards she opened it. As she read on, she found herself smirking. Who would have thought she would have yet another reason for The Dark Lord to add her to his Find Will Kill list. As she read on she found herself wondering had Harry received his yet. Finally reaching the bottom she snorted, only him. . .

…...

The wolf who follows in the steps of another, but who wishes for the forbidden.

Draco Malfoy was in his room at Malfoy Manor sliding his hand up and down the empty white space of his left forearm lost deep in thought when a unfamiliar owl swept into his room. Dropping a letter into his lap Draco looked up only in time to see white wings vanish out of his window. Opening the letter he had to read it three times before sighing and coming to the conclusion that it was telling the truth. Damned Gryffindors.

…...

The bear who thought she went unnoticed

Ginny Weasley had just stepped outside to de-gnome the garden when she received her letter. She swore the speckled brown owl winked at her. She was extremely confused on the contents of the letter. She thought about it and realized that the letter well had to be true. As she looked at the sender's name she rolled her eyes.

…...

The eagle who hides his inter emotions

Blaise Zabini had just gotten home from a day out in Diagon Alley. He noticed that he had mail on his desk. As he flipped through it all he saw a regular letter with just his name on it. When he sat down to read it, his mouth opened ever so slightly. When he went to curse the fool who sent the letter he smirked. Well who was I expecting? Merlin himself?

…...

The tiger who should have died, but lived to see another day.

Harry Potter finished reading the letter with a sigh. Another prophecy. Great. He looked over to the picture of his parents. They were smiling up at him and just being happy. He smiled back, all the while wondering if this war was ever going to end. He then looked at another note that had similar handwriting as the letter. Your father left this in my possession before he died. It's time it was returned to you. Use it well. He smiled. He heard someone giggle behind him at his window. "Isn't it so predictable of him?"

…...

The horse who's betrothed, but loves another

Pansy Parkinson walked upstairs to her room. Today she recived word that once she graduated from Hogwarts she would be married to one the Dark Lord's most loyal's sons. She went up to her room and noticed an envelope on her pillow. I wonder who it's from. The letter fell from her hands when she finished. When she picked it up she realized who sent it. She thought Maybe he can help and if not at least I can die trying.

…...

The boar who's temper is short but mind is strong

Ron Weasley had just stormed up the stairs to his room. The twins were picking on him again, and boy was he mad. He went to go lay on his bed when there was a tapping on the window. A pair of golden brown eyes starred back at him before the owl hooted and dropped a letter into his room. As he tore it open, he read it and realized that who ever sent this letter was dead set on making him believe he was part of a prophecy. But when he read the name of the sender he knew that this was no laughing matter.

…...

The hare who has seen all this come to past.

Together they will come in this time of need.

Together they will fight for good.

When Luna Lovegood finished reading the prophecy she felt a pull in her stomach. She didn't know what it was exactly, but she could tell it was powerful. When she read the rest of the letter everything started to make sense. She had been having weird dreams and strange magic happenings. When she went to see who could have possibly known this she thought Of course. He knows everything. Even what I have seen.

…...

Please understand this is no trick my children. The prophecy was made 50 years ago. I have only now come to realize that you and 7 others are part of this prophecy.

This leads me to a question for you. Has anything strange been happening to you lately? Any powerful urges? Or magic you can't control? Any strange dreams? If so you are defiantly part of this happening.

Please I ask you to meet me and the 7 significant others outside the great hall after the opening feast. Burn this letter when you are done.

Sincerely,

Albus Dumbledore
