Regulus was standing in a rock island, he went closer to the water, he was thirsty. It was pitch black, and he didn't understand what was happing.

He got closer to the water, he felt something pulling him into the water, and he sank, deep, deep, deep, lower and lower and lower. "Help" he thought. He couldn't move his body, he couldn't breath.

"Regulus!" a female voice screamed for him in desperation. He closed his eyes, seeing a hand entering the water to gab him, but it was too late, as he let go the last bit of oxygen he had in his lungs.

Regulus woke up startled, sweat covering his body as he breathed heavily.


After that Quidditch win, Regulus wouldn't let himself be lower than Eugenia. He needed to be better at her in every aspect. "Someone seems cranky" commented Mulciber. "Shut up" Regulus murmured. A week had passed from Gryffindor's win, and Regulus was still bitter, not because Slytherin lost, but because somehow Eugenia pissed him off. To make matters worse, him and Eugenia where still paired up in potions. and somehow they ended up in divination too. "You're destinied to be together" teased Rosier. "She's a blood traitor, The Dark Lord won't be happy" he added. "I won't be with her, even if I die" Regulus spat.

He walked towards the Divination classroom, where Professor Nettlers sat. Regulus took his sit next to the brunette girl. "Morning" she said. Regulus let a groan out. "Not in a very good mood, I see" she chuckled and he rolled his eyes. "Good morning" said the divination teacher even if it was two pm. "Today... we'll learn about dreams" she said. "From now on, I need you to write down your dreams... and we'll see then here" she finished. "Meanwhile, you'lol work with tea leaves".

That same night, Regulus had the same dream. And the next night, and the next one. He was starting to get tired of that goddamn dream, it always made him wake up drench in sweat.

Meanwhile, Eugenia was having different dreams. The first one seemed to be a rocky island, sorrounded by pitch black water, and someone falling. She was desperate to save the person, putting her hand in the water to reach them, until she too, was pulled in.

The next one seemed rather odd, seeing a small baby cry as the side of his forehead bled.  He looked awfully like James's baby pictures, and a sudden terror filled her.

And the last one, a skeleton with a snake coming out of its mouth. It was simple, but still it triggered her.

She wrote every of her dreams even if they disturbed her. Most of the night dreaming them, she would either wake up crying or trembling in fear.

"Show me your dreams" said Regulus. "You show it first" Eugenia said hugging her dream diary. "No, you first" Regulus fought. "Just give him the bloody book" Nabila said. Eugenia sighted harshly and gave Regulus the book.

Regulus read the first dream. The rocky island, someone falling in the water. He gulped, what if it was a second point of view as his? It was imposible, it was only a dream. But it seemed that is perfectly feat his, someone screaming his name, hand under water...

Same thought where coming to Eugenia as she read his. Everything seemed to connect. Her frost dream and his, they where both so alike, and his sounded oddly familiar.

"Nabila" Eugenia called. The said girl turned to look at her friend. "I- My dream, the one I told you about, and Regulus... seem to feat... I think... they're connected" she said finally.
