"When are they going to- you know..." Ron's voice trailed off as Harry, Ron and I were sitting in the common room.

"Sundown. We got a letter from Hagrid." Hermione said.

"Christella, are you okay? You've been on mute all day." Harry asked, placing a hand on my arm, snapping me out of my thoughts.

"Hm?"

"Are you okay?" He repeated.

I shrugged.

"Shrugs aren't an answer."

I ignored him and opened up my book, only to have a note from Dumbledore slide out.

I re read it, remembering what the note said.

"I have to go see Dumbledore." I said quietly.

"Wait, Christella." Ron called my name this time.

I can ignore Harry, but I can't ignore Ron or Hermione.

"You're not... possessed again are you?" Ron asked, concern flashing through his eyes.

"I promise I'm not. If I was, I would tell you." I said truthfully.

Every time I start acting weird, they always make sure I haven't been possessed again.

Like last year.

That was scary for us all.











"Professor Dumbledore, you wanted to see me?" I asked.

He nodded.

"Yes. First off, how have you been Christella?" Dumbledore asked.

"I've been fine. Yourself?"

"I've been grand. Now as I understand it, you attended a party in the Ravenclaw common room a few nights ago, correct?"

I nodded.

"How did you get into the common room?" He asked.

I could see he knew the answer, but I answered nonetheless.

"I answered the riddle the door knocker asked me." I said.

"I see. Christella, what did the sorting hat tell you last year? Particularly about Ravenclaw and Gryffindor?"

Again, I knew he knew the answer.

"The hat said I would fit into Ravenclaw, but my bravery was enough to put me into Gryffindor."

"Do you realise, that it has been almost a century since a student who wasn't a Ravenclaw answered the riddle to get into the common room correctly? A second year at that too."

"I didn't know that."










"Let's go Chrissy, we're going to Hagrid's Hut now." Harry said tapping my shoulder, pulling me out of my book.

"How big is this thing?" I asked as we were walking with the invisibility cloak over Harry, Ron, Hermione and I.

"Well, you are a midget." Harry teased.

"You can talk! Ron and Hermione are both taller than you! Besides, I'm younger than all of you." I retorted.

Hermione knocked on the door of Hagrids hut.

"Yeh shouldn' o come." Hagrid whispered.

He let us in anyway.

"He's coming down you know. Dumbledore. He said he wants to be with me when they-" Hagrid's voice trailed off.

All of a sudden, a rock came flying through the window and hit a pot, making it shatter. One then hit Harry on the back of his head.

He looked out the window.

"They're coming." He said, gathering up his stuff and leaving his invisibility cloak with Hagrid.

"I won't need it Hagrid." Harry said.

He was up to something, but I didn't know what.

"Oh an Ron-" Hagrid pulled out Ron's rat Scabbers, and handed it to him.

"Take better care o yer pets." Hagrid warned.

We walked out of the door and hid behind some pumpkins.

Now, it was getting serious.
