"We are in dark times again. Students, there is now a curfew for every year. The curfews are as follows:
1st years: 7:00
2nd years: 7:30
3rd years: 8:00
4th years: 8:30
5th years: 9:30
6th and 7th years: 10:00.
This is for your protection. For our older classmates the 5-7th years, you have been taught enough to arm yourself, therefore; you will be responsible for your magical use." The headmaster said after dinner one night. Every one was just going along with what they had instructed. The first years were frighten while the seventh years got their spells memorized so they could remember which one to use.

As for Rose, Lily, and I, we were staying in the library and common room only. I didn't want Rose or Lily to be taken, nor was I worried about the danger. Camille came with us. She has been adjusting into a Tom free life. She was happy, we all were happy. I will never get over the fact that she betrayed her brother so easily. So easy......she would do it again. I didn't know if I really should trust her with anything. One night, I was in the common room watching the fire as I laid down on the couch. I smiled a little then my eyes started to drop, until I was fast asleep.

The Castle was quite, not a sound was made until the heels clicked. I saw a woman walking down the hall, in a rush it seems. Blood was all over her hands and her dress as she called out for someone. I couldn't hear what she was saying, but in her hands was a child's body. A man came out with three others. His eyes widen, "No......my child!" He ran to the woman. "How did this happen?" The woman couldn't speak, just held the child's body to her. The three others looked at the two parents then the male of the group spoke up. "Your child died, Godric, because it was not meant for the wizarding world." Godric looked up at him then knew in that moment, he knew that the man killed his child. "How dare you think that my child was not fit for this world!"

"Yes. It wasn't, I took it upon myself to help you in the error of your ways!" The two men took out their wands and started fighting. The three girls, with the dead child, ran off to protect themselves from the spells. One woman, a wise one, came and stopped the two from fighting.

"Both of you! Drop your wands!" She yelled at the men. Godric put his weapon down so did Salazar. "Both of you are acting like children! We can't run a school if you two are going to fight-"

"I am leaving." Salazar walked off with his wand, never seen again by the founders of Hogwarts.

"Come on Lexi! You have to get back on the broom and helps us to defeat Slytherin!" James, being the proud Gryffindor he is, has been asking me for about three days now to get back in my broom. I told him that I shouldn't. "Please Please Please Please Please Please..." He kept asking and asking. I groaned then went to my room, laying down and groaned.
I heard a knock on my door. "Yes?" Lily walked in with tears in her eyes, I sat up quickly as she entered the room. She went and hugged me tightly.

"I'm so sorry for this." She whispered, that's the last thing I remember before going black, again.
