"Ha… Harry… I saw that too…" Said Emma, still gasping for air.

Harry looked up form grasping his scar. "What?" Then he noticed Emma looked to be in great pain. "Emma what's wrong with you?"

"I… I don't know… my heart… it feels like a knife is imbedded in it… It's getting a bit better now." Said Emma.

Harry did not look overly reassured. "My scar hurt." He said simply.

Emma looked up in horror. "But… "She clumsily scrambled to the window.

"It's getting less sore now." Said Harry. "He can't possibly be here, the blood wards are still active."

"Wha… what if they failed?" Said Emma.

"They can't have." Said Harry. He felt the last of the pain in his scar go. Mere seconds later his sister looked distinctly calmed.

"Hey the pain is gone." Said Emma.

"But it happened at the same time as my scar pain." Said Harry "How is that possible?"

"Coincidence?" Said Emma.

"I don't think so." Said Harry. "It makes no sense, the only times my scar has reacted are when I was in the Voldemort's presence and even then, did you ever feel like this whilst I was in First Year?"

"No." Said Emma. "When did you feel your scar pains?"

"Half a dozen times or so." Said Harry. "All in the presence of Quirrell, or more precisely…"

"Harry, I've never felt anything like this before." Said Emma.

There was great concern between the two Potters.

"Harry. If we both saw the same thing, then there is a good chance that actually happened." Said Emma.

"I know." Said Harry. "We can't just sit on this."

"Who should we tell?" Said Emma. "Dumbledore?"

"That would be a good idea." Said Harry. "But I think Sirius and Remus would want to know as well."

"Well there is only one Hedwig." Said Emma looking at Harry's sleeping owl.

"I think we should send her to Sirius." Said Harry. "The notebook is ready now, it would be good to see if it's works internationally."

"But what about Remus? And Dumbledore?" asked Emma.

"We'll have to send some other owls." Said Harry. "There's a post office in Hogsmeade where we can rent some, I can get the Knight Bus over there tomorrow."

"We Harry." Said Emma. "In fact, if we go to Hogsmeade, why not go to Hogwarts? Let's face it, Dumbledore may already be in the castle."

"Wouldn't he be on holiday?" Asked Harry.

"Maybe, but if we're going that far to send him a letter, we may as well stop by and see if he's in at all." Reasoned Emma.

"Fair point."

"Allo again." Said Stan, though they had not yet introduced themselves, Harry and Emma had become regular users of the Knight Bus. "So where to this time?"
