CHAPTER 18

The end of year came crashing into us at great speed, before any of us knew it, exams were upon us. The sun was out and we were all stuck inside, studying and panicking…Well, at least Lily, Marlene, Sarah, Severus, Maksim, Remus and I were. The other three…I cannot say.

Audrey sighed, looking out the window of the library. The trees were all in bloom, it was sunny and warm. There was a light breeze blowing through the grounds, the weather was just perfect.

"Earth to Audrey!" Severus said, waving a hand in front of his friends face. Audrey snapped out of her trance.

"Sorry, Sev…" She said, giving him a look.

"Audrey, you have to focus. Once these last two exams are over you can go out and fly."

Severus and Lily had figured me out a few months prior, they were truly the smartest in our year. Though my father had embedded into my head that being found out was as if I was ending my life, Severus was incredibly understanding.

Audrey had set off down the cold corridor, pulling her robes closed and shivering. She had just had a two hour long lesson with Hisoka and her fingers felt raw.

"'Ello Poppet." called a voice down the corridor.

That voice made my stomach drop…I shouldn't have been nervous, I could have killed him instantly. But there was something about him…something I didn't place until years later.

Audrey turned on her heel to see Marcus Flint, the third year that kept blowing kisses to her all throughout February. She was creeped out by him, he would follow her around the hallways the entire week before Valentines day. She had taken to walking with Remus and Maksim to most of her classes, because Severus had told her one day that Marcus would always ask him about her.

Marcus now stood at the opposite end of the hallway, he would be a distant blur to a human but her eyes focused on him with incredible clarity.

I should have just turned and ran, but I was so foolish.

"What do you want, Marcus?" Audrey called.

"You." He grinned, his teeth were disgusting. Audrey shivered, and it wasn't because of the breeze.

Before Audrey could react he blasted her into a wall, she shook her head. Was he serious?

Audrey was about to flourish her wand when Marcus was knocked off to the side by a curse, Severus Snape rounded the corner.

"Oh thank merlin." She mumbled, getting up and rubbing her head. She felt dizzy.

Severus was in the middle of darting over to her when someone had hexed him out of the way. Audrey turned to see Evan Rosier on her side of the hallway. Marcus was getting up from the rubble, dusting himself off.

"I thought I told you to stay out of the way, Snape." Marcus hissed, annoyed.

Severus said nothing but glared, helping Audrey up. At that moment, Evan sent a streak of purple flames straight at Severus. The flames engulfed him for a moment, and then he was on the ground, bleeding profusely.

Audrey tried every counter curse she could think of with no avail, and the two boys were closing in on her.

She then heard her father's voice in her head.

"Remember Audrina, should there be danger…it is not illegal to use your powers…"

Though her family had forbid her from showing her powers, this was an emergency. Severus was going to bleed to death and Audrey could be violated.

She decided to be subtle, the ground began to tremor. Suits of armor began to run from the shaking hallway.

…okay, maybe a tremor wasn't exactly subtle to the average witch or wizard. But in my family, it was quite subtle.

Marcus and Evan began to stumble around, tripping over each other. They looked panicked, and Audrey could see why. One of the pillars was crumbling, the stone was falling. She just had to wait long enough for…

Clunk…

Clunk.

Both boys were unconscious.

Well…that wasn't exactly what I was waiting for but it was all good to me.

Audrey pulled out her wand quickly, and obliviated their memory of the tremor.

The only thing I had been taught outside of school was memory charms, my ever so cautious father worried that if I slipped up I wouldn't have a way to hide anymore.

"Audrey?" said a familiar voice.

Lily Evans stood at the other side of the hallway, and judging by her face she had seen everything.

"Lily! We need to get Sev to the hospital wing." Audrey said, kneeling over Severus.

Lily nodded briskly and waved her wand, managing to conjure a stretcher. "I figure it'd be best not to use your powers out in the open hallway."

Audrey turned to Lily wide eyed…how did she know that she could use the wind?

Lily seemed to read her mind as they walked. "I know what you are, Audrey. I read all about the earth movers."

'Of course she read about it.' Audrey mused to herself.

She really was the brightest witch of our age.

"Lily, you must keep it a secret." Audrey said gravely.

"I will." She nodded. "However, we may have to explain it to Severus."

"Do you think he saw?" Audrey bit her lip, she was afraid that if Severus found out he would judge her. They got along splendidly and she didn't want to ruin their friendship just as their first year was ending.

"Severus sees everything." Lily replied, as they made it to the hospital wing.

Audrey snapped out of her memory and replied. "Sev, you know I can't fly unless it's dark out…hell, I can barley fly here anyway with the number of nosy people around this school."

Audrey and Severus exchanged a knowing look, of course they were talking about James Potter's gang.

After their very last exam, potions, Marlene and Audrey threw their notebooks up in the air and set off running down the hallway. Cart wheeling and dancing.

"I don't think I've ever seen them this crazy in my life." Sirius mused. Remus laughed.
