Into The Light (Golden Trio Era) {2}

Learning More About Black

After Mikayla had given everyone a little glimpse into their future, she returned to Trelawney's side. "Right any more questions for Mikayla before she leaves?" Trelawney asks the class, a few hands shot up, "Bem," Mikayla called upon. "Where did you have your first vision and what was it?" Mikayla sighed trying to think back to her first vision, "it was the first day of third year, in this very room, and Hermione grabbed my shoulder as I took a sharp breath and I saw Draco Malfoy approaching Buckbeak calling him names, before Buckbeak injured him but it the vision, he was injured a lot worse than when it actually occurred. Because I was able to jump in front of Draco to prevent him from getting badly injured."

The class began muttering when Mikayla heard a "Hem, Hem." behind her, she spun around to tower over Umbridge once again, "yes Professor?" Umbridge has an ugly smirk on her face, "why did you leave this class?" Trelawney looked like she had been hit with a bus, but Mikayla wasn't giving Umbridge the satisfaction of getting one over Trelawney. "When I was third year I was doing all subjects available to third years. I had to choose three subjects to keep as the workload was too much and I chose Care of Magical Creatures, Ancient Runes and Arithmancy. I like to be challenged for exams and it didn't seem fair if I sat Divination exams having my abilities." Umbridge smiled at this response, "And did you not believe Professor Trelawney could teach you about your gifts?" Mikayla saw what Umbridge was trying to get out of her, "Professor Trelawney taught me how to control and analyse my visions and was a great help to me overall. She's a very talented Professor." Umbridge nodded, "So you do like Professor Trelawney?" Mikayla nods at this question, "I wouldn't have said yes to coming here during my Arithmancy lesson if I didn't like Professor Trelawney." Umbridge shut up and returned to the corner, Trelawney looked ecstatic and the class looked somewhat impressed.

"Next question.... Neville." Neville lowered his hand once he got called upon, "have you had a lot of visions?" Mikayla shook her head no, "not before today anyways." The class had a bit of a chuckle, "Terry?" He smiles looking at me, "is there any after effects you get from visions?" Mikayla thought about it for a bit, "sometimes, I suffer from insomnia after a rough vision or a mild migraine." The class nodded at Mikayla's response, "why did you kept your abilities a secret for so long?" A Hufflepuff girl Mikayla didn't recognise asked, "well, honestly I just didn't want to be known as the Aevus Seer, I prefer people to know me for me and not my abilities, if that makes any sense." The girl clarified that it did make sense. "Any more questions?" Seamus raised his hand, Mikayla called on him, "Have you ever had a vision that didn't happen?" Mikayla took a deep breath, "no, all of them came true in one way or another..." "what do you mean?" "Well when I get a pre-warning of something, I can't prevent it but I can soften the blow like I did with my Buckbeak vision. Draco Malfoy still got injured but not as badly as he should've." Seamus nods understandingly, Mikayla got hit by a sudden rush of dizziness, she stumbles slightly but catches herself. "Sorry, I think all those predictions got me a little light-headed." Mikayla grabbed a chair and sat down looking at the class.

She called on Susan, "Did almost dying last June affect your powers in any way?" Mikayla nodded as she felt her face to make sure it wasn't cold. "I suffer from something called Anxietas." Mikayla looked at Harry and Ron with a look that signaled to them that she wasn't feeling too great. "What's that?" Dean asked, "Anxietas, it's an after effect of surviving death, if I stress or worry too much, I'll fall unconscious and relive certain events of my life, sometimes they'll be horrific other times they'll be amazing. It depends on my body temperature, cold is bad, hot is good. And there's nothing to stop them other than forcing myself to have a vision instead. If I do have a Anxietas episode, you just have to wait it out and let me go through it." Mikayla spoke slowly, once she explained it what Anxietas was, she looked at Professor Trelawney, "Professor, I think I should go now, and I might need some help getting back to my common room." She whispered to the Professor, who nodded looking at Harry and Ron, "Harry, Ron will you escort Mikayla back to the Gryffindor common room." The boys nodded, gathering their stuff together before walking up towards Mikayla. "If anyone has anymore questions for me, feel free to ask me whenever." Mikayla smiled to the class grabbing her stuff and allowing the boys to steady her on the way out.

Once they were away from Trelawney's class, Mikayla called "Peppy" her old house elf appeared in front of them, "Yes Mikayla?" "Can you get me some pumpkin juice and something small to eat? Please and leave it on the table in the Gryffindor Common Room, I'm not feeling well." Peppy saluted before disappearing, the boys were silent the whole journey until Mikayla almost fell, "what's going on?" Ron asked, "I'm weak from the predictions and I feel an Anxietas episode coming that I can't prevent because I don't think my brain can handle another vision. Am I cold or warm?" Harry sighed, "you're freezing." Mikayla cursed under her breath, "as long as I get something to eat and rest, I should be fine right?" Mikayla questioned, the boys shared a look but never responded.

They told the Fat Lady the password, helping Mikayla through the portrait hole, they were rather surprised when they saw the twins eating the food Peppy brought up Mikayla. "No, stop." Harry called out to them when him and Ron sat Mikayla in an armchair near the fire. Ron wraps the blonde up in a blanket, Fred and George see Mikayla's pale face and immediately stop eating, Harry hands her the cup of pumpkin juice, which she drinks quickly, whilst Ron fills the twins in on what's going on with the blonde. Mikayla started eating the untouched salad sandwiches, trying to get her blood sugar up. "We have to get back to class." Ron said looking at Mikayla worried, "go, I'll be fine. I'm going to head upstairs and sleep. Wake me up for Herbology please." Ron and Harry looked really hesitant, "go, we'll keep an eye on her." George told the boys, they promised to wake her up for Professor Sprouts class. "Oi, if Umbridge asks, I'm alright now, just felt a little light headed." Mikayla called after Harry and Ron. When she goes to stand up the twins wrap her arms around each of their shoulders. "Oh that reminds me, your Headless Hats have a little nauseating feel to them." Mikayla told the twins as they guided her up to their dorm room, since boys can't go up the girls' staircase. "We'll make sure we fix that." Mikayla sent Fred a wide smile, as they lay her in Fred's bed, "thank you Georgie and Freddie." Mikayla smiles, slowly closing her eyes and instantly falling asleep.
