"-nity? Serenity?"

Serenity slowly opened her eyes after hearing an elderly voice call her name. Her eyes fluttered as she opened to see Dumbledore sitting by the bed with Professor Snape standing next to him. She sat up while her eyes slowly moved around the room to look at her surroundings, since the last time she was up she only looked out at the window. The room itself was quite bare, with no pictures or paintings, just bookshelves filled with old tattered books. She took a glance to see it was getting close to sunset as she looked back at Dumbledore and nodded her head to him.

"Sorry sir, how long was I asleep?"

"Only for a couple of hours. Severus contacted me to tell me what had happened. How are you feeling though, child?"

"Fine sir, Professor Snape has um...Taken very good care of me so I think that I should not intrude any longer and get ready to lea-"

"Not so fast child...I would like Severus to do a diagnosis spell to check on your arm one more time…"

Serenity looked from the headmaster to the Professor as she nervously leaned back against the bed frame. The headmaster nodded his head as he got up to step outside to allow the professor to do the spell. Serenity suddenly felt the awkward tension in the air as she looked at the man. He raised his wand to perform the spell as he scanned, many her arm to see the damage.

"So um...You live in Knockturn Alley...Sir?"

He glanced up at her eyes and looked back at her arm as he said,

"This is only a safehouse of various purposes...My real home is somewhere else, now hold still you dunderhead."

She gave a little nod of her head as she awkwardly looked at the window, trying not to make any more eye contact with him as he examined her. Once he was done he opened the door to let Dumbledore back in, letting the elderly man take a seat.

"Well it seems that Miss Aragon will be fine as long as she drinks a healing potion for the next few days… It seems the creature digged its claws into her arm to the point that if it went any deeper the beast would have made in contact with her bones. Seems that she is indeed quite lucky…"

Dumbledore sat quietly as he looked at her arm. He reached out as Serenity gently smiled as the man pat her hand.

"It really doesn't hurt that much sir. I just need to go back home with the potions and I'll be fine."

"What if you are attacked again? You were lucky enough that Severus was nearby, no. Until you're completely healed you are to remain somewhere safe. Then you'll go home."

"Sir...If I could speak to you alone for a moment."

Dumbledore looked at Severus as the man glanced back at her and stared. He held his gaze before turning around with his cloak billowing around him. When the door closed they stayed silent for a few more moment until Serenity spoke,

"I cannot be here and do nothing."

"Child…You are in no condition of doing anything rash. Just recover at the castle…"

She looked back at him and gritted her teeth for a moment while clenching her hands into fists. She had a gut feeling as if something was going to happen as suddenly something hits her, like a train, as her whole body ached it raging pain. She didn't understand what was going on as she fell back into the bed and yelled out. Her eyes open wide as the colors of her iris' glowed of different greens as the sudden image surged into her mind.

Once it stopped she stared at the ceiling as she heard Dumbledore exclaim at her in concern and a sound of a door opening with the Professor in the room as well. She breathed very slowly as she moved her eyes at Dumbledore.

"...I...I need to go…"

"Serenity calm down! Severus!"

She quickly threw the bed sheet away as she jumped off the bed, grabbing her bag and her wand. She felt a rough hand on her arm to see Professor Snape look at her.

"Calm down you FOOL!"

"Let me GO!"

She yelled back at him as she pushed him away as she rushed out of the room. She looked at the hallway and saw the stairs and went down to find the living room and a simple kitchen. She didn't have much time as she looked at the living room to see floo powder next to it. She heard the rushing footsteps behind her as she ran to the fireplace and looked back to see the Headmaster and Professor. She grabbed the powder and yelled out,

"St. Luminous!"

She felt the rush as every fiber of the body was being inflamed and carried in the wind as a rush hit her in the stomach, as her whole body hit the ground. She felt the cold snow underneath her as she yelped in pain from her arm of the harsh fall. Though the ground felt cold to her the air felt hot as she felt the heat was carried with the blaze of flames. She looked up to see the blaze of a building, St. Luminous being engulfed in flames with the now dark sky behind it. She quickly got up and ran as she saw the sisters with kids as she rushed to them,

"Sister! Sister Maria, is everyone alright?!"

The sister looked at Serenity with wide eyes and tears as she says in a shaky voice.

"T-Thomas hasn't come out! Neither has Bobby!"

Serenity looked at the burning building as she rushed in with the voices of everyone calling out for her. She took her wand as she did a quick water spell to try to extinguish the flames but it was too much for her. She rushed through the place as she yelled out for Thomas and Bobby. She reached the back where she noticed the door was open. She rushed out to see footsteps in some grass heading to the little patch of forest close to the orphanage. She ran calling out their names as she heard a harsh growl and realized it was Valiant. She finally made it to see Thomas on the ground by a tree with Valiant showing his teeth.

"Valiant!"

"Ha! Now the WITCH has returned."

She turned around to see Bobby Johnson as he had a horrible grin on his face, deranged and somewhat mad look in his eyes as she took a couple of steps back. She saw a glint in his hand to realize he had a large knife as he gave out a sickening laugh,

"S-serenity…Run…B-bobby, dangerous!"

She took steady steps back as she made it to Thomas on the ground looking at her, with an outstretched hand as blood oozed from his stomach. Even Valiant was wounded on his hind leg, making it hard for him to stand as she saw him growling again.

"I can now finish you all off!"

Serenity looked back at Bobby as she saw the blood smeared on his white shirt with it partially burned at the sleeve as she said in a shaky voice,

"Y-you attacked Thomas, Valiant...Burned the orphanage?! WHY?!" She yelled at him as she saw him lean back and laugh like a cackle.

"Hahaha! Why?! WHY! Because of you!"

Serenity stared at him in bewilderment as she felt a chill go down her spin.

"Me? What have I done to you?!"

"Everything! You've made my life miserable! You and your strange drawings, making everyone believe you're an angel but you're nothing but the devil's spawn! Especially when you come back from the bloody school you become nothing but a saint to everyone, but you're a witch! I've had enough especially when I heard you two are leaving to families, while I get to rot! Not this time, I'm dragging you to hell where you belong!"

He lurched at her with the knife as she yelled out with her wand,

"Expelliarmus!"

He was thrown back to hit the tree. She didn't wait for him to get back up and just ran to Thomas,

"Thomas! Thomas, it's going to be alright! Just stay with me!"

Thomas' shirt was already covered with his blood as she ripped it open to see the large gash. She ripped it a bit of her own clothing to try to stop the bleeding but it kept coming out. She took her wand as she pointed it at the gash as chanted out an incantation she had heard madam Pomfrey done for deep wounds. Thomas arched his back in pain as she tries to go as fast as possible. As she did this she heard Valiant bark hysterically as she looked up to see Bobby running to her. Valiant moved to go in front of her as she cries out no, but hears a familiar elderly voice.

"Expelliarmus!"

She looked to see Dumbledore cast the spell, knocking Bobby back with Professor Snape yelling out,

"Reducto!"

The knife in Bobby's hand suddenly turned into bits of sand next to him as the boy laid unconscious. Serenity looked back down at Thomas to see him fading in his eyes,

"No Tom! Tommy please look at me! Don't leave me!"

Thomas moved his hand up gently caress her cheek as he whispers softly,

"...It's ok Sere...I always knew you were special a-and I wish I could stay a bit longer but...I-it's too late for me."

"Dumbledore! Professor please help him! Save him!"

They were next to her as Snape was across from her looking at the wound as he said in a hoarse voice,

"It's impossible...He lost too much blood."

"No! T-Thomas you can't leave! Please!"

"Sere...L-let me speak since this will be my last few moments...I always knew you were special...Gifts given by God and I-I...I am proud to be considered family by you. I wish I could stay longer to meet your relative but no matter what...I love you Serenity...You will always be the family I never had but received instead...Now it's time for me-"

He suddenly coughed up some blood as he reached out for her again as she gently took his hand and whimpers,

"No! Thomas please don't leave me…Your new family is waiting for you…What about our PROMISE?!"

"…I'm…sorry…"

She saw the lights fade from his eyes as he passed away. She felt his hand limp in her hand as her whimpers turned into full on cries.

"T-Thomas…no…Thomas?"

Valiant whimpers as he licked Thomas's cheek, nudging his face, thinking Thomas was faking it. Once Valiant realized his friend was gone, a tear appeared in Valiant's eye as he looked up and howled a painful cry. Serenity's tears burned against her cheeks as she heard a groan. She looked up to see Bobby stirring from where he laid. She felt the rage in her as she jumped up and pointed her wand,

" Incarcerous viti!"

Suddenly the tree vines rose and wrapped around Bobby, tightly binding the boy to the point that the boy seem as if he was choking. She wanted to make him suffer as she saw the boy's face change color but felt arms around her as she cried out,

"Let me go! He's a murder! A MURDER!"

"Do you want to be one too?! How would Thomas feel about you doing this?!"

"I don't care! I'm going to kill YOU!"

Suddenly Bobby just laughed in a strange crazy voice as his sick eyes stared at her even though he was choking.

"ENOUGH!"

She heard Severus' baritone voice in her ear as her whole body went limp in his arms. She gripped her hand against his arm as all she could do was cry. She didn't even realized that she turned around and cried with her head perfectly in the crook of his neck as her arms wrapped around his neck. While she cried she could hear Dumbledore's voice speaking but she didn't care. Her mind and body were numb as for the first time she lost a precious person in real life...And she knew this would only be the beginning.
