I Can See You / Gendry Waters out now!

" But I've never even played Quidditch. What if I make a fool of myself?" Harry questioned.

"You won't make a fool of yourself. It's in your blood." Hermione corrected. She led them to the trophy case. Hermione pointed at a plaque of Quidditch players. One lists Harry's father as a Seeker.

"Whoa. Harry, you never told me your father was a Seeker, too." Ron remarked.

"I-I didn't know." Harry admitted.

"Congratulations Harry." Vaera remarked. He smiled back at her. 

"Thank you." Harry agreed. 

"My sister made the Slytherin team too though so you are not the youngest." vaera remarked. 

"I... well I'm excited to play against her." Harry offered.

"She has been flying her whole life, her dragon though." Vaera corrected. "But a broom will be nothing to her." 

"DOes she have things flying at her, objects to throw through goals while flying?" Ron questioned. 

"Sometimes when we are bored, yeah, we play games in the air." Vaera agreed. 

"I'm sorry you fly dragons? When you said before when I first met you that you had dragons... like your pets dragons?" Harry questioned as they walked. 

The four were walking up a staircase in the Grand Staircase tower. A railing pulled in, Hermione looked over at it, that couldn't mean anything good, but continued walking.

"Yeah. There is a lot you dont know about me Harry Potter." Vaera declared. "But the world knows about you apparently."

"I'm telling you, it's spooky. Hermione knows more about you than you do" Ron remarked.

" Who doesn't?" Harry countered as the staircase shuddered and began to move. The four grab the railings. Ron screamed out.

" What's happening?" Harry demanded.

"The staircases change, remember?" Hermione recalled. 

"Where is it taking us?" Vaera countered. 

"Lets go this way." Harry suggested looking at a big dark wood door. 

"Before the staircase moves again." Ron agreed. 

"Vaera, you coming?" Harry questioned. 

"Something isnt right..." vaera countered hesitantly. 

"The stairs move, yeah its weird come on." Harry grabbed her hand and she beamed back at him, nodding as he pulled her along. 

"Ms. Davina, it is almost curfew." Davina turned around to see Severus staring back at her. 

"Then why are you not in bed?" Davina sassed. He didnt say anything just stared. "I'm waiting for Vaera." Davina admitted. "Her head twat of Gryffindor is only going to be gullible so much before he remembers we are twins and kicks me out. She was supposed to be coming here tonight." 

"Codependent." Was all Severus had to offer. 

"Your point, Severus?" Davina sassed. 

"Goodnight, Ms. Davina." 

"Night!" She called back as she paced. 

"Come on, Vaera has moved on, she's a goodie, goodie." Theo reminded her. 

"She knows the code to get in." Mattheo added.  Davina grumbled but let them pull her inside. Vaera on the other hand was not okay. 

"Three headed dogs! What the hell? WHy do they have that in a school!" Rob was shouting as they ran. 

"Didnt you see his feet?" Hermione countered. 

"I was looking at the three barking fanged teeth trying to eat us." Vaera corrected out of breath. 

"There was a door." Hermione informed them. "He was guarding something."

"Bloody hell." Vaera put her hands on her thighs doubling over. "We could have died!" 

"I would protect you." Harry offered holding her hand. 

"You ran too!" Ron corrected. 

"That was protecting! We ran away together." Harry agreed Vaera laughed out leaning into him. 

"I wonder what its guarding." Hermione countered glancing back. 

"You sound like my sister." Vaera remarked. "She is always doing crazy things that are certain to get me killed!" 

"Come on, we are already late for curfew." Hermione remarked heading up to the Gryffindor tower. 

"Vaera are you coming?" Harry questioned still holding her hand. She was supposed to go to Slytherin common rooms tonight, Davina was going to give her a tour but she didnt want to get lost getting back down there. She touched her necklace and it glowed back at her. 

"Yeah I just need a second." Vaera agreed as she watched them head in, She held her foot in the portrait to keep it from closing before lifting her necklace up slightly. "Crazy night, so much to tell you but I dont think I can figure out how to get down to your common room in the dark. I will see you tomorrow. Love you."  Vaera whispered before heading in. Hermione was waiting for her. 

"whats that smile about?" Aemond questioned Davina. 

"I just got a message from Vaera." Davina remarked. 

"Where?" 

"Its magical." Davina reminded him. "Shes going to bed. I will see her in the morning."
