Support

A/N check out my conversations page on my account. Need an answer for my Q!

"Broaden your minds. You must look beyond. The art of crystal gazing is in the clearing of the Inner Eye. Only then you can see. Try again. Now, what do we have here?" Professor Trelawney wakes Ron with a start, Mikayla holds in her laughter. "Do you mind if we try?" Mikayla asks gesturing to the her and Hermione, Trelawney seemed glad for their efforts. They both gaze into the crystal ball, "The Grim, possibly." They speak in unison. Trelawney looked at them in disbelief, holding one of each of their hands. "My dears, from the first moment you two stepped foot in my class, I sensed that neither of you possessed the proper spirit for the noble art of Divination." Mikayla was shocked, this really showed how little Professor Trelawney knew about Mikayla's abilities. "No, you see, there. You may be young in years, but the hearts that beat beneath your bosoms, are as shrivelled as an old maid's. Your souls as dry as the pages of the books, to which you so desperately cleave." Hermione and Mikayla both remover their hands from Trelawney's grasp, picking up their bags, Hermione knocks over the crystal ball on the table before the pair storm out of the room.

"Let's find McGonagall and drop out of Divination." Hermione turns to Mikayla once they were down the steps, Mikayla agreed to follow her before the pair head to their head of house with the news. "What is your reasoning for dropping this class?" McGonagall asks, the two girls explained what happened during the class, and Mikayla noticed a small smile on her face. "Mikayla it probably would've been wise to inform her of your abilities." Mikayla laughs lightly at Professor McGonagall's suggestion, "She told me, she could sense I didn't possess the spirit for Divination. I don't think it would've mattered." McGonagall nods, "Have you thought of what else you're dropping?" The pair shook their heads to say no, Mikayla rather enjoyed all her other classes but she was definitely getting a little tired. "Well we shall make our way to our next class. You have Transfiguration with me."

The day really sped away after the morning events. Harry told the group the prediction Trelawney had made, "How did she act after she spoke?" Mikayla question, "You can't be seriously believing her rubbish." Hermione groans, Mikayla looks at Harry, "She had no recollection of saying anything." Harry informed her, "Well it doesn't matter what Trelawney said, we have to go and give Hagrid some support."

The foursome were in the courtyard when they spotted a man sharpening a blade, "I know who he is, that Macnair, he was a death eater, claimed he was under the imperius curse." Mikayla whispered to the group as they made their way to Hagrid's. "I can't believe they're going to kill Buckbeak. It's just too horrible." Hermione spoke, as they walked through the bridge, "All because Malfoy wanted to get Hagrid fired." Mikayla spat, the four stopped at the mouth of the bridge, seeing Draco, Pike and Crabbe. Hermione storms towards them, the other three follow, she pulls out her wand, "You! You foul, loathsome, evil little cockroach!" She causes Draco to be pinned up against a large rock, "Hermione No! He's not worth it." Ron shouts at her, Pike steps towards Hermione, "Don't even think about it!" Mikayla pulls out her wand pointing it at Pike, he backs up away from Hermione. Hermione lowers her wand turning around, the three Slytherin laugh before Hermione spins and socks Malfoy in the nose. He crumbles under her strength, Mikayla cheers happily as the snakes run away back to the castle. "That felt good." Hermione smiled, "Not good, brilliant." Ron corrects her, Harry smiles like an idiot, "I feel so proud." Mikayla smiled hugging Hermione, "But I'm a little sad I didn't get to do it." She admits, the foursome laugh before rushing down the steps towards Hagrid's.

Buckbeak looked rather sad, laying in the pumpkin patch. "ah look at him. Loves the smell of the trees when the wind blows through them." Hagrid informs them as they look out the window at Buckbeak, "Why don't we just set him free?" Harry asks, "They'd know it was me, and then Dumbledore would get into trouble. He's coming down ya know, Dumbledore. Says he wants to be with me when they... When it happens." Hagrid explains, Hermione promised him that they'll stay with him as well, he wasn't haven't that, he didn't want them to see such a horrible thing. Hagrid opens up a biscuit tin, pulling out a very familiar looking rat, "Scabbers! You're alive!" Mikayla stood next to Hermione, "I think you owe someone an apology." Hermione walks towards Ron, "Right. Next time I see Crookshanks, I'll let him know." Ron spoke smartly, "I meant me!" Hermione bites back, "Come on, Ron. Apologise." Mikayla regains her place beside Hermione. The pot behind Hermione smashes, Mikayla picks up a peculiar stone, examining it. Harry calls Hagrid over, "It's late, it's nearly dark. You shouldn't be here. If someone sees you outside the castle this time of night, you'll be in trouble. Big trouble! Particularly you, Harry." Hagrid tells them to use the back door to leave, they do as told.

The foursome were hiding behind the pumpkin patch listening to what Fudge was saying. The heard a snap behind them, once they saw no one they began to rush up the steps to get away from the Minister. The got up just in time to see Macnair raise his axe, Mikayla turned into Harry for comfort, Hermione did the same to Ron. "Ow! He bit me. Scabbers." Ron started running after his rat, the other three followed him, Mikayla stood a little away from him as he was close to the whomping willow, Mikayla looked up at the other two, who were further behind them, as they try to warn them of the tree. "Hermione, Harry, Run! It's the grim." Ron yells pointing behind him, the black dog jumps over Harry and Hermione, past Mikayla right at Ron, grabbing his leg, dragging him. Mikayla jumps grabbing a hold Ron's hand as they both yell to Harry and Hermione for help. Harry barely missed grabbing the pair, Mikayla took in the dog's features, it was a black German Shepard, she couldn't help but smile, yeah she was in danger but the small reminder of her mother, made her feel safe.
