Fear

Chapter 24

25/35

Dementors.

They were in the grounds. No one knew why. One day they weren't there, the next day the were. It was like they'd just appeared out of thin air.

Well, this is magic. Of course they'd appeared out of thin air.

Every time I pass them, the horrors of my life before Hogwarts flash behind my eyes.

"Get up you useless lump!"

"Don't cry only babies cry."

"You are disowned, never come home again!"

I had tried so hard to forget, but no matter how hard I tried, I knew they would always come back in a heartbeat.

"I never want to see you again!"

They were permanently stuck in my mind. I could never escape.

"Useless girl! Go! Get out of my face!"

My father's terrifying face haunted in and out of my dreams.

"Why can't you be more like Draco?"

I thrashed around in my sleep at night, had multiple nightmares. Sometimes I got no sleep at all.

"M-Millie?" said Angel timidly. "You okay?"

We were walking up the moving stairs, to Charms.

I snapped out of my trance. "Yeah, I'm fine.."

"Oh don't give me that shit Millie." She snapped. "I'll ask again; are you okay?"

"No, but I'll tell you what the vision was later."

"You're having visions?"

I mentally slapped my face. Ugh.

"Look, I'll tell you later okay?"

She sighed. "Fine.."

"Good girl."

We stopped in front of the Charms classroom. I knew we were late, but I didn't know how late.

As we opened the door, Flitwick was just saying, "Class dismissed!"

I cursed under my breath. Angel was more audible.

"Shit."

"So er...do you think you could give your old pal some help?" I pleaded Alicia. "What happened in Charms today?"

Alicia smirked. "Not telling.."

"Oh come on! Tell me!" I exclaimed. "I don't want a detention! The next quidditch match is soon!"

"Then you'll have to use your willpower then Malfoy!"

"Oh, returning to last names are we Spinnet?"

We glared at each other.

"Oh fine! I'll help you!" Alicia sighed. I smirked evilly.

"So, I've been having visions about the future.."

It was now 10:30 at night on a Thursday and I was telling Angel what had happened that morning.

"What about?" She asked.

"It's been the same one for weeks. It's that dementors are guarding the school because of a prisoner. I don't know his name. And I- I see horrible things. Flashbacks from before Hogwarts. My past life."

Angel gasped. "Are you are seer or something?"

"I dunno.. Can we just go to bed now? I'm soooo tired."

"It's only 10:30!" Angel whined.

"That's late for someone who didn't sleep at all yesterday night!" I snapped.

"Oh fine!" Angel exclaimed, defeated. I smirked.

Yooooo!!

Y'know those songs from previous chapters?

Well, I've decided that it's set in 2000 and the last year of Hogwarts is 2007. Harry starts school 2001 and then ends in 2008. That way, if I do a next generation I can use stuff like apple laptops and present day music in it!
