**Guinevere’s POV**
“Take Allura and the boys and leave. Go to a safe house.” I demand of Fred and Charlie. The both look defiantly back at me. “Now!” I say louder as I point my wand to the door. I slowly creep nearer, something unknown drawing me closer. My heart races as I reach my shaky hand towards the doorknob. Slowly I open it, knowing that whatever is out there is unavoidable.
“Guinevere!” A hauntingly familiar voice yells as frail arms wrap around my neck. I impulsively push the sickly man away. He falls in a heap. The man has long, dark hair that is lined with gray steaks. His tan skin is worn and slightly wrinkled. The man is my dad, or who appears to be my dad.
“Who are you?” I yell angrily. My entire youth flashes before my eyes.
“Your dad.” He whispers. His voice is shaky and etched with sincere sadness.
“It’s impossible. My dad died at the hands of Vol—of an evil man.” I reply not believing my eyes. The sight—his voice—everything was just like I remembered yet Severus’ warning continued to play in the back of my mind.
“I didn’t die. A few days before you escaped Christina—yes your --sister—went undercover as a death eater and took my place.” The man says quickly.
“My sister died in a car accident.” I mutter trying to clear my cloudy thoughts. Suddenly my eyes burn red.
** I am a young girl. My baby brother Brett is wrapped in Christina arms. She is young, eighteen perhaps. “My nephew is so cute.” My mom coos from behind me. The real, older me quivers at the sound. “Nephew?” I question to myself as my memory unfolds. “Can I hold him, Aunt Christina?” I beg throwing my baby doll to my dad’s feet. I hear his old, familiar chuckle as he scoops me in his arms.
The scene changes.
“They are coming Tabetha. They killed him! Gunter took Brett and the Death Eaters killed him.” Christina hysterically tells mom and dad. “Look we have both seen Guinevere’s fate if we do not do something. Tabetha, you know what we have to do.” The broken hearted Christina sobs impulsively at the thought of her lost son.
“I just can’t believe, dad, or Gunter would do this to us.” Mom says. Dad looks confused between Christina and mom as I hide my face in his shoulder.
“You know the plan.” Christina tells mom ignoring her previous comment. Mom shakes her head furiously at Christina.
“No.” She begs.
“You know what happens if we don’t.” Christina replies seriously. “So here’s the plan. We make it look as though Brett and I died in a car wreck. Guin will know me as her sister. It will just make things easier since mom kept me in the shadows from dad. He found Brett by chance and assumed he was your son and killed him. We can’t have that happen to Guin. When the time comes, you must die too.” Christina pauses and looks at dad. He looks fearfully back at her.
“No, I won’t do it.” He retorts manically. His grasp is bruising my arm but I’m too scared to care.
“Then when it is time I will take over his body and do it. I have seen his capture and days before he dies I will infiltrate the Death Eaters headquarters and use my metamorphagus skills to be him while giving him Polyjuice potion to escape and seek out Guinevere. Only then can he lift the memory charm I am going to place on Guin.”

My blurry vision slowly becomes more visible as my vision fades.
“Leginamacy.” I mutter not believing what I had just seen. “Sing me the lullaby you always sang to me.” I request. The old, frail man begins to hum the tune to my lullaby. I turn to look at my husband, daughter and brother-in-law knowing I projected my vision for them to see.
“Is this grandpa?” I ask Allura finally realizing that she is a Seer too.
“Duh, momma.” She smiles. Charlie gently puts her down as she runs into my dad’s arms.
“Grandpa!” she exclaims excitedly.
“Oh, you’re so beautiful! You look just like your momma,” he coos. “You’re grandmother told me all about you and your devil red head brothers.
Charlie and I exchange a small smile. He wraps his arms comfortingly around me as I attempt to let everything sink in.
