*****Rosalyn's POV*****

***2 months later***

I sit reading through a book in the library when someone clears their throat to catch my attention. I cast my eyes up to see Ronald standing there. "Hi." I mumble, closing my book with the page marked. "Hey Diggory. We need your help again. Could you help?" He explains. My eyes widen and I give a curt nod of agreement. "I have to get back to the Common Room now but we'll talk about this at breakfast tomorrow hopefully." I state and pack my things away before heading out.

I watch as Ronald, Harry, Mione and Joe walk over to the empty part of the Hufflepuff table. I smile and they sit down. "So what do you need help with?" I question after having a spoonful of cereal. "They think Professor Snape is trying to get the Philosopher's Stone for Lord Voldemort." Joe states tiredly. Everyone's heads shoot up and glare at him. I sigh and finish my cereal quickly. I push the bowl away and stand up. "Let's take this somewhere more private." I state and lead the way out.

"Professor Snape isn't trying to steal the Stone for Voldemort. I think it's more likely to be Professor Quirrell because I've been hearing him talking to this quiet and creepy voice when he's alone." I state. Ron groans. "It's not Quirrell. Snape was yelling at Quirrell the other night." Ronald nearly yells at me. I stand to my feet. "Try thinking Ronald. Which of the two has been here longer? Until you figure out that you've been most likely blaming the wrong person you can come find me." I snap and run back toward the castle. "ROSA!" Joe screams after me as feet stomp behind me.

I see Cedric sitting by the fireplace as I step inside the Common Room. His eyes widen in shock and he rushes to my side. "Where have you been all day? I've been worried sick asking if people have seen you with Joe." He says. "Would Snape steal something that's inside the castle?" I question. "What?! That would never happen! Who gave you that idea?" He says. "Ronald, Mione and Harry. Joey thinks their being stupid gits." I explain.

***1 week later***

I walk over to Cedric with a vine wrapped around my arms. I sit down and rest my head on the table. "What's up Rosa?" Cedric asks. "These vines are attached to me." I mumble. "Bloody hell!" I hear Ron gasp from behind my back as the vines grow and wrap around the seat. "Ced. It's growing." I whisper in his ear. He quickly begins to cut the vines with a knife and pulls me out quickly, Joe following behind us. I feel the vines wrap around my body and constrict my arms from moving. I fall down and cry out in pain as they wrap my legs up.

Madame Pomfrey checks me over as Dumbledore bursts in. "How is Ms Diggory, Poppy?" Dumbledore asks. "Just as I suspected. It wasn't a potion or spell that caused this. It's a gift." Pomfrey explains. "An Elemental. How rare." He gasps, "We'll have to have her siblings tested to see if it's part of their DNA."

"Looks like you Diggory's are very powerful. But all three of you together would cause mass destruction." Professor Dumbledore explains, "Cedric is a Seer, Joseph's a Healer that can heal anything or bring anything back to life by touching a person and Rosalyn is an Elemental which is incredibly dangerous in every single way. A single outburst and something bad could happen. I would suggest you avoid all people that cause high stress levels." My heart begins racing and vines begin to spread across my arms. "We'll have to work with Rosalyn on the elements because it could kill her." Professor McGonagall states, walking in. My eyes widen in fear and the vines spread out faster. Cedric quickly cuts the vines and puts a pair of gloves on my hands. "I think you should keep those on Rosalyn so you cause less damage to yourself." Madame Pomfrey says. I nod and look down at my hands which are shaking lightly. A hand lands on my shoulder and rubs it gently. I look up at Joe and give him a small smile.

I walk beside Joe and Cedric into the Great Hall for dinner and see Harry staring at me in confusion. Mione and Ron look over too. Cedric leads us over to the empty area of the Hufflepuff table and we sit down. I feel eyes on my back and clench my fists tightly. Cedric places a hand on my back and puts a plate in front of me. I give him a tiny smile and begin to eat.

I gasp in pain as I'm shoved to the ground. I look up to see Harry, Ronald and Mione's heads looking down at me in shock, their bodies invisible. I crawl away in fear but Harry grabs my arm and helps me up. "Why don't you have bodies?" I stamper. "Why are you always wearing gloves since that incident at breakfast?" Ronald snaps back. I let out a whimper and try to get away. Ronald grabs my hands and tries to pull me back, but my gloves slip off my hands. The vines begin to grow around my hands and I hide them quickly. "ROSA!" Joey yells, running from down the stairs. "JOEY! HELP!" I call back. Harry looks at me in alarm as Joey moves quickly up the stairs. I turn my head to see Joey appears and moves to my side. "What's wrong?" He asks quickly. "They have the gloves. My hands." I whisper back. He turns to them and grabs the gloves back. They're quickly placed on my hands and I sit up. I glare at Ronald and wrap my arms around Joey. "What are you doing out here?" Joey asks. "Stopping Snape from getting the Philosopher's Stone." Harry states. I shake my head at them and look at my hands. "You're not going alone." Joey states, pulling me forward. I look up at the trio in front of me and nod my head in agreement. They sigh but agree.

I fall into vines and pull my gloves off. "I got this!" I call out as the vines begin to wrap around me, causing the others to fall through. "ROSA!" Joey screams. I my face get covered and I feel a burning sensation in my hands. I drop through the vines and notice them to be devil's sneer. I clench my fists and the flames around my hands dissappear. I quickly pull my gloves on and look at the others. They stare back at me in awe. "How did you?" Harry gasps. "Born with it. It's the reason for the vines." I explain, pulling a glove off to reveal the vines growing under them. I pull back on and walk ahead.

I gasp in shock as Harry pulls us into a room containing a single mirror. I spot Quirrell standing across the room. He turns around and I set my hands on fire, burning my gloves into a pile of ash. His eyes widen in shock. "I-I-I've heard about you from P-P-Professor D-D-Dumbledore, R-Rosalyn D-D-Diggory. The Elemental of her family while her twin is a Healer and older brother a Seer." He says. I take a step back and glare at him. Next thing I know I'm knocked out.

I wake up and look around in confusion. "Rosalyn!" I hear Mione cry out. I look toward her and give a weak smile. "Harry hasn't woken up yet but Madame Pomfrey said you could leave after she checked you over." She explains. I nod and she heads to find Pomfrey.
