  SCARLET'S POV

It was dark. Very dark. I couldn't move at all. But I could hear voices, and they sounded familiar.
"When do you think she'll wake up? " someone asked,
"Who knows, Madam Pomfrey says it was a huge blast that they caused so it could be days " someone else said,
"Days?? but she's already been out for four! how long can someone possibly be sleeping for?! " someone yelled, wait...I've been asleep for four days?? Gosh I hope Hermione has all my homework for me.
"Alright let's go, we'll all be late for class. Besides, we should all let her rest in peace " someone said, there was a course of "ok" and
"fine" as I heard footsteps walking away from me. A few minutes later I found myself finally waking up, I slowly opened my eyes but closed
them due to the fact that the lights were in my eyes. I looked down at myself and saw that I had bandages all around my body, on my arms,
legs, stomach, and my head. But what I found odd were the bandages that were on my hands were extra bandaged. That's strange, I
then looked down at my necklace and saw that it was burnt. Then the images came back to me. I looked over beside me and saw Alexis
in the bed beside me, her hands were bandaged just like mine as well. I'm confused, I looked back down at my necklace and sighed, I
then heard someone groan, I looked over and saw that Alexis was waking up, she slowly opened her eyes, blinked a few times before
looking at me, her brown eyes showed hate, anger. But right now, I was so tired I couldn't care less.
"Where am I? " I heard her ask, but all I could think about was that blast.
"Oh don't tell me I'm in the hospital wing " I heard her complain, but I still couldn't get that blast out of my mind, I mean, why
did it happen? do we somehow have a connection? I mean she does have the same last name as I do, but lots of people have the
last name Black, but still, I didn't even know I could control air amd fire, can I control the other elements as well?
"Excuse me I'm talking to you! " finally I snapped out of it and looked over at Alexis, she looked taken back when I just stared
at her blankly,
"Alexis, as much as I would love to punch you in the face I'm not really in the mood right now so please leave me alone " I said, she groaned,
"Well what's got your panties in a twist? " she asked, I sighed,
"Look, it's nothing, I'm just confused as to what happened " I replied, she tilted her head.
"What do you mean? " she asked,
"That blast? I mean why did it happen? what caused it? I didn't even know I could control air and fire, can I control the other elements too?
I'm just trying to fit all this together that's all " after I finished I looked at her and I saw that she was deep in thought,
"Well......I'm just as confused as you are, only I knew I could control fire but you shouldn't worry about it, just ask Dumbledore "
she replied finally, I nodded,
"I guess but I don't want to bother him, he's a busy guy " I said, she snorted,
"How busy could the guy get? the guy just paces in his office all day; plus he's not the one who had to learn how to waltz " she replied, we both giggled, then I gasped,
"Oh my god " I said,
"What? " she asked,
"We're actually having a conversation; and we're not trying to get at each other's throats either" I replied, she looked at me then nodded,
'I guess you're right, I guess because of what happened on the train, we couldn't get over our egos and get to know each other " she replied,
I nodded,
"Yeah that's true " I replied, it was quiet for a few minutes until I gasped,
"What? " she asked, I groaned,
" We were unconscious for four days straight, and we had an assignment due in four days in Snapes class, it's due today " she groaned along
with me,
"Ugh don't remind me, I hate Snape, his hair is always greasy and he doesn't know how to dress " I laughed,
"Oh my god imagine him waltzing around with McGonagall " we then both burst out laughing, I looked over at her,
I think this is a start of a new friendship. Suddenly the door flew open and Dumbledore walked in,
"Ah I see that you girls are finally awake " he said, we both smiled and nodded, he walked over and sat down at the end of my bed,
"You gave everyone quite a scare, blowing up the entire room, usually we would've kept this between just the students who were in
that class but...well we all know how they are " we both chuckled,
"But sir I don't understand " I said, he looked at me,
"Understand what? " he asked,
"The blast, how was it caused? " I asked, he sighed, then he pointed at my necklace that was still around my neck,
"Do you see this necklace? this necklace was your mother's, and your mother was an extraordinary witch, she could do things
that even I to this day can't understand, that was her necklace, her power. She designed it for you so that when you were old enough; it was to be opened.
it contained power so big that even I can't control it, it was made for you, it was to be unlocked at the age of 14, and now that
you're that age, it opened and let your true power in, the power that not only you have but what your mother had as well, she could control
all the elements, she could see the future, and even stop time, but after she died, I made sure that you would have it, but she made it
with her love as well, so that it couldn't kill certain people " I looked at him,
"What do you mean? " I asked, he slowly got up and looked from me to Alexis,
"What I mean is that it was designed so that you couldn't kill not only the ones that you love, but also the ones who are your family; your true family " I gasped
and looked at Alexis,
"She's my family? " I asked, he nodded,
"She's your cousin Ms. Black, your father and her mother were bother and sister " I gasped along with Alexis this time,
but before we could ask anything else, he was gone.
"Alexis? " I asked, she looked at me,
"Yeah? " she asked,
" Your all I have left besides my father, we should stick together, okay? " I asked, she nodded,
"Alright " she replied, I then slowly laid back down and got some much needed rest.
