"Tonight, the dark lord will attack Hogwarts," he paused dramatically. "Tonight, the battle begins!"
Those words rang repeatedly inside my head. My brain was pounding and my fist tightened anxiously around my wand. I had left Snape's office a few minutes ago. Apparently, Harry was spotted in Hogsmeade causing this uproar within the death eater community. I shuddered as fear crept it's way up my spine, especially after Snape had warned me about the death eaters and dementors that were crawling around the castle. He told me to be careful but was then called upon by Voldermort, making his dark mark burn painfully.
Afraid of tonight's outcome, I hugged him. He was taken back for a moment before embracing me in the hug. Snape could be anything but for the past several months, he has been my parent, my trustful companion but most of all he has been my friend.
Thinking about our possible deaths, caused a wave of nasuea to hit me and I stopped walking. Catching my breath, I waited until the feeling passed before entering the Room of Requirement. I needed to alert the others and I needed to do it fast. I ran inside as soon as the double doors opened but what I saw made me stop dead in my tracks.
"Hermione?" I questioned as I stared at the face of my old friend. She smiled back warmly and that was all the invitation I needed. I ran over and hugged her tightly, tears streaming down my pale face. "Oh Hermy, I missed you so much."
Hermione sniffled, as she too was crying tears of joy. "Oh Alice, so have I. These past months have been nothing but torture."
I nodded, feeling her pain. Then I pulled back and saw Harry and Ron. I practically pounced on them, causing a sea of chuckles to erupt from my two guy friends. "Ron! Harry! It's so good to see you."
"Alice?" Someone in the room spoke, their voice nothing but shocked.
Sighing, I turned around and faced the enormous crowd. They all held surprised faces. Seamus must have been the one who spoke because he walked up to me, disbelievingly. I raised my wand and pointed it at my hair, making the potion wear off faster. A sea of gasps erupted and Seamus pulled me into a hug.
"Alice, you're alive!" he yelled estatically, his english improving. "Then that means...I kissed you. Guys! I kissed Alice!" he shouted and I rolled my eyes at him but smiled at his goofiness.
"Yes you did but we have more important matters-" I paused abruptedly when I saw Ginny standing next to Harry. I smirked and winked at her. She blushed knowing exactly where I was going with this. She told me to do everything in my power to win Draco's heart back, now she must do the same with Harry. I cleared my throat. "As I was saying, Voldermort is attacking tonight!"
Neville stepped forward. "We know," he began. "Harry just told us. So what do we do?"
We all looked at Harry. He was a bit surprised but hello! He's the CHOSEN ONE. If anyone is going to defeat Voldermort than it would be him. He stuttered a bit and began asking us about Rowena Ravenclaw. The only thing I could think about was her diadem but that couldn't be it, so I remained silent.
Then an alarm sounded, indicating that the Carrows needed us. We all ran outside and to our distinctive houses. Harry dressed in his old Gryffindor robes as we walked downstairs to the great hall. My hair was blonde and many faces began to recognize me. My eyes wandered to the Slytherin section but Draco was no where to be found, instead I found Pansy and Dapne staring at me with shocked faces. I held a finger to my mouth and they nodded with pleasant smiles. At least I still had awesome friends.
As we arrived at our destination, Snape stood at the head of the room with a blank look. His eyes found mine and they widened. I shrugged as I looked around for Draco, again. I sighed. If Snape was called before then Draco probably was too. But the question still remains, why would he go? He told me he quit. As a matter of fact, he told his father in front of me, so why would he respond to the call? Nothing made sense anymore.
