*** Song: When we stand together - Nickelback 

Two days after the trip to Diagon Alley. 

I was feeling sort of awkward. But I didn't want to tell my dad because I didn't know what his reaction would be if I told him about what I've been thinking about since school ended 3 months ago.

Before I even realized, I was walking out of Pucey manor. It was like my legs were moving on its own and I didn't know how to stop from moving. But I kept going until I got to the cliff by the house. You can see over a big Body of water.

The swaying of the waves filled me with nausea, Amongst the horrid screams of the visions from before.
I almost felt like I couldn't breathe, my ears rang like someone was ringing a bell really hard. My hands, shaking, my fingers like ice.
My legs feeling like gillyweed as I almost fell over the cliff side.

Suddenly I heard a faint call of someone yelling my name. Before I was pulled back.

The person shook me, almost frantically. I opened my eyes. I blinked to take away the blurred vision I had before.
When my vision cleared. I realized that it was my dad.
His face looked both angry and panicked at the same time. Well, he did witness me almost fall over a cliff.

"Dakota Pucey! Why are you standing so bloody close to the edge of a cliff? What if you fell in the water?!" My dad scolded.
I was a little bit shocked when I was suddenly brought into a protective bear hug.

"Whats wrong with you?" My Dad asked.

I signed, as I didn't know how to explain to him how anything was right now. I was scared to tell him. So I lied, "Oh didn't eat breakfast, feeling a little seasick," I said as I signed.

Dad looked at me with a worried look, "are u sure that's all? I've noticed you haven't been attentive as usual. Koda, you can tell me anything..." Dad asked.

I looked down, "I'm okay Dad," I said.
He kept looking at me like he didn't believe anything I was saying.
But he signed, as he patted my head.

Time Skip:

"Dakota lets go!" My dad called. It was already the day to go to Hogwarts. I made sure I looked okay in the mirror in my room, I was finished tying my hair with the dark green ribbon that I had, that somehow looked a little faded, like it was used before. But I didn't think anything of it. It was given by my grandfather, though he told me that he didn't know who it really belonged to before. But I knew he did, he just didn't tell me, because my dad was there. So he just pretended he didn't know and told me to take care of it.

The ribbon was tied around my hair twice, and no I never did tie it with loops. But still, I always get questions as to why I have long hair and never want to cut it. And I don't have an answer to that.

I walked by, and I froze when I thought I saw a mark on my shoulder since I was wearing a t-shirt. I walked to the mirror the bathroom. And I looked at the mark. And it wasn't that big. But you can see it. It was a sword, with a dragon wrapped around the blade, even the handle. The dragon was skinny. and had emerald green eyes. But for some reason, when looking at the mark, I didn't feel scared. It felt oddly familiar like I've seen it before. I made sure to grab a black sweater, putting it on and zipping it up.

I shifted over to look at my appearance, to see the new discovery made me change at all. I still looked the same, and that made me sigh in relief.

I was told that I looked a lot like my dad. I had a heart shaped jawline, but it wasn't as defined as his. I had board shoulders, my nose was slim, with slightly thick eyebrows that bend at the end.
