"Are you serious?"

Bella, Tom, and Luna sat in Albus' office. Luna was looking out the window and grinning at Fawkes. Bella looked really confused, and Tom just looked really angry. Albus sighed.

Tom was always really angry if he just took a lemon drop, he was sure that Tom would be as calm as he was.

"I'm quite serious I have my suspicions about this prophecy but each is as unlikely as the next. If I come up with anything, I'll be sure to tell you, Bella" Albus reassured the Girl-Who-lived. He was surprised as she gave him a frown but nodded. She turned to Tom.

"What does this have to do with you?" she asked. Tom glanced at her and then continued to glare at Albus' desk.

"I'm here as the recipient of the prophecy. The Seer gave it to me. Though I don't know why" Tom sighed. Luna turned to him sharply and her eyes were very clear. They weren't dreamy. They were sharp and precise.

"I do think you know why, Professor. However I assure you that it isn't the time for you to share why you received. Daughter of Black drawn. Daughter of Black shown. Drawn is good. Shown is bad" Luna said, her sayings growing making less sense as she went on.

Bella frowned at the girl but said nothing.

"Really, Maya, I don't understand why you're so torn up about this. Clark cheated on you. Not the other way around, I'm sure" Penelope insisted as she browsed at the clothing. Maya glanced at her best friend and sighed. Penelope didn't understand.

She'd never been married.

Her friends had taken her out on a workday…oh wait. She had been fired.

By her soon to be ex-husband.

"It's going to hurt for a while but, I found Alexander" Helen said. Maya chose not to point out that Alexander had seduced Helen when she was still with her husband. It was a good choice in her opinion. She didn't want to start anything.

"Yes, yes I know. I'm more worried about Hermione. Well…I'm sure Bella will make sure she doesn't slack" Maya said, more speaking to herself than her friends. Helen and Penelope glanced at her curiously.

"Who's Bella?" asked Penelope, curiously. Maya smiled.

"Hermione's best friend. The poor girl's parents were murdered and her godfather's taking care of her" Maya said, vaguely. This only boosted Penelope and Helen's curiosity more. There was not only a girl that they had never heard about but an alleged godfather…

"Tell us about her! What does she look like? What is she like? What is her godfather like?" asked Helen, excitedly. Maya tilted her head.
