The Stone

Chapter Twenty One

Last update on this story for today, I'm feeling sleepy...but whether I go to sleep is another story considering I suffer from Insomnia.

I want to write a Blood Drive story so bad, but then I figured out not many people even know of the show never mind watch it, so that's out of the question...

So, in that case, what book would you like to see next? Comment below 

Enjoy this chapter

That night, Bella, Harry, and Ron wrapped themselves in the Cloak and set off to find the mirror. Walking slowly, they tried to retracing Harry's route from the library, wandering around the dark passageways for nearly an hour. 

"I'm freezing," said Ron. "Let's forget it and go back"

"No!" Harry hissed. "I know it's here somewhere"

"Well, let's hurry up and find it, the school gives me the creeps on a night," Bella says shivering.

They passed a ghost of a tall witch gliding in the opposite direction but saw no one else. Just as Ron started moaning that his feet were dead with cold, Harry spotted a suit of armour. 

"It's here - just here- yes!"

They pushed the door open. Harry dropped the cloak from round his shoulders and ran to the mirror. Bella glanced around the cold room and Ron watched Harry as he stared at the mirror with a grin on his face.

"See?" Harry whispered.

Bella looked at the mirror. "I can't see anything"

"Look! Look at them all...there are loads of them..."

"I can only see you," Ron says.

"Look it in properly, go on, stand where I am"

Harry stepped aside, but with Bella now in front of the mirror, he couldn't see his family anymore, just Bella in her pyjamas. 

Bella though, looked shocked at her image. 

"Well...er..."

"Can you see my family standing around you?"

Bella didn't see his or her family around her, instead, she saw what looked to be an older version of herself in someone's arms looking lovingly at a person as the person did the same back. She knew who the person was immediately...it was Harry. 

"No, I'm standing on my own holding what looks like my grades from my O.W.Ls" she lies. "And it looks like I've passed"

Before Harry could answer, Ron pushed her aside and looked transfixed by his image. 

"Do you see my family?" Harry asked desperately

"No - I'm alone - but I'm different - I look older - and I'm Head Boy!"

"What?" Bella and Harry asked at the same time.

"I am - I'm wearing the badge like Bill used to - and I'm holding the House Cup and the Quidditch Cup - I'm Quidditch captain too!"

Ron tore his away from the sight to look excitedly at Bella and Harry.

"Do you think this mirror shows the future?"

"How can it? All my family are dead - let me have another look-"

"You had it to yourself all night last night, give me a bit more time"

Bella sighed. "Guys-"

"You're only holding the Quidditch Cup, what's interesting about that? I want to see my parents"
