two rings and bad things

26_ seer

Madam Pomfrey was able to heal Ed's broken ankle by dinner time, and it wasn't a very painful process either.

She walked into the Great Hall, starving.

"I take it you didn't get any scars bad enough to make you more famous than Potter?" Malfoy asked as she sat down.

"Oh please, Ed, you pathetic little-" Pansy interrupted.

"Shut up, Pansy," Malfoy snapped.

"Yeah, I'm fine. I'm just glad we won! Great job catching the snitch by the way," Ed responded.

"I told you I could do it," he smirked.

"I looked for you after the match, but Flint said you were at the Hospital Wing. Sounded like a pretty good goal you made."

"Thanks," she smiled.

"Oh yeah, I was going to tell you that I had a dream last night that we won! Well, I only saw that the score was 180-80, but I also felt my ankle break. I can't believe it actually came true..." Ed added.

"Wait, so you had a vision?" Malfoy asked curiously.

"Yeah, I guess so. Amazing, right?" she said enthusiastically.

"Koldings, do you think you're a seer?"

"I don't know, it was just one time. Besides, I hate Divination, it's stupid."

"Yeah right it is," he agreed.

"I guess I could ask Professor Trelawney," Ed suggested.

"That lady? She's insane," Malfoy retorted.

"I know she's strange, but she's also the only person that would know."

Ed decided to ask the next day at the beginning of class.

"Excuse me Professor," she started.

"Oh, what is it my dear?" Professor Trelawney asked.

"I was just wondering what makes someone a seer. Do they have visions, or do they only make prophecies...?"

"Well, both are true. Most seers just have visions, but a lucky handful make prophecies too," she explained.

"May I wonder, why do you ask?" The Professor added.

"Oh, I just had a dream that Slytherin won the Quidditch match 180-80, and then it happened..."

Professor Trelawney then let out an excited shriek, which made Ed jump.

"We have our very own seer!" She yelled.

"Oh, I knew it from the moment you entered the class!"

This reminded Ed of the first day of school when Professor Trelawney told her she "sensed a very strong aura around her," whatever that meant.

"Everyone, if you could listen for a second please, Miss Koldings here possess the Innter Eye! Very few of my students have this extraordinary talent," Professor Trelawney announced excitedly, her eyes in her glasses looking larger than usual.

In fact, she could barely say a sentence without stuttering out of excitement the whole class.

"Looks like you're her new favorite student," Malfoy laughed to Ed as the students were dismissed.

But before she could respond, Malfoy was already making his way towards Crabbe and Goyle.

"Malfoy's right, which means you should ask for less homework," Malorie suggested.
