"I wish I knew what this means!" Bella exploded in anger. Ron and Hermione looked up at her in alarm as she rubbed her scar, irritably.

"What do you mean?" Ron asked, confused. Bella grit her teeth and resisted the urge to snap at him and took a deep breath.

"My scar keeps hurting...it happens only when I have the dreams," Bella said, whispering the last part. Ron didn't understand but Hermione did to an extent and she touch Bella's arm.

"The dreams? What are the dreams about?" Hermione murmured. Bella looked at her with tired eyes, dark circles under her eyes.

In truth, Bella didn't want to talk about the dreams. They had gotten worst. Instead of yelling across the battlefield there was actual battle and though all of the people on the magical creatures scared her, the woman who Tom usually kissed and protected was scariest. Tom and her fought together, always. It was like they were one and they were both fluid.

She could remember one time when Tom grabbed the woman's hand and swung her in a circle so she was shooting curses when they were surrounded. She had decapitated someone with her high heel and when someone had tried to kill Tom she had gone absolutely vicious.

"Chaos. Absolute chaos," she whispered. Hermione looked worried as she glimpsed at how tired Bella actually was.

"Go to Madam Pomfrey," she suggested. Bella shook her head and sighed, leaning on her hand.

"I'm not ill. It's a warning of when danger is coming...and it's coming tonight. I can feel it," Bella whispered. They all looked at each other and sighed, tiredly.

"Music...what possessed him to tell someone that! Is he stupid?" Bella hissed in anger as she and Hermione fetched Ron from his dorm. Hermione shrugged and inclined her head towards Bella.

"He's a little gullible but I don't think he's stupid. He just says the wrong things at the wrong time," Hermione explained. Bella smirked and crossed her arms as she pulled the cloak out.

"Well maybe he should be put into permanent silence...what made me say something like that?" Bella gaped. Hermione looked at her from the corner of her eye but said nothing. She couldn't.

She'd been thinking the exact same thing.

"Ron would you come on! We could've been there and back by now!" Hermione hissed in annoyance. Ron came lumbering from his dorm room and Bella was surprised that nobody had heard him. She shoved her hand in her pocket and felt the flute Hagrid had given her.

So it would definitely come into use...

They walked downstairs and were almost out of the portrait hole when someone squeaked. Bella and Hermione spun around, their wands out and the squeak turned a squeal before it went down.
