| Matt Lanter/The Dark Side/Anakin Skywalker/ Underland/Hookah Smoking Caterpillar OMG! I haven't updated since February! Thanks for all of ya'll's replies! Here's the next part!
I pulled back and looked over his face. He smiled, then averted his eyes back towards the fire. I was about to say something else, but a furious banging on the doors split us apart. I cursed quietly under my breath as Remus stood to open the door.
“What Prongs?” he said rather crossly.
Emily, Lily, and James stood in the doorway. James held the Marauder’s Map and Emily held a letter. She pushed passed both the boys and came straight over to me.
“Seneca…” She handed me the letter. I flipped it over, and noticed that the seal was already broken.
I cocked an eyebrow at her, but her sorrowful expression cut me short.
Quickly, I opened the letter. Sometime during that time, Remus had made his way over to my shoulder. Lily and James had followed and took their places on either side of Emily. I skimmed over it a couple of times, taking in all the information.
Seneca,
I’m sorry to say that your mother has passed away earlier this day at 3:56 p.m. Please come by St. Mungos Hospital for Magical Maladies and Injuries for further information.
My hand went up to my mouth, and every tear and emotion from the past few months sprang out of me. I felt Remus’s hands on my shoulders to keep me from falling and Emily had taken the letter from my hand. Everything felt like it was moving in slow motion. Lily hugged me, as did Emily, James, and Remus. I don’t know when it happened, but the next thing I knew I was back in the common room, sitting on the lumpy couch and curled next to Remus’s side. He was stroking over my red hair while I cried silently into his shoulder. Lily, Emily, James, Sirius, and Peter all sat motionless near me, none of them saying anything.
It was getting late, and almost all of the other student’s were in their dormitories. Without a word to me, Lily and James got up, followed by the other three. Emily’s hand lightly rested on my shoulder, but I didn’t respond.
“Do you want to go to bed?” Remus asked me.
Into his robes, I shook my head.
“You should get some sleep.” he continued.
“No.” I whispered.
For the second time that year, I fell asleep on the couch, leaning against Remus. Leave ya'll's replies!!

| Matt Lanter/The Dark Side/Anakin Skywalker/ Underland/Hookah Smoking Caterpillar I am on a roll! Here's the next part!
That night I had to relive what had happened all those years ago when I was little. Instead, though, I was watching. I saw my parents in great detail; From what they were wearing to how their emotion’s changed. I saw my older brother in his twelve year old form, his red-blonde hair caked with blood. I saw me; A helpless seven year old me hiding behind the counter. “You! It’s your fault you produced a squib, Anna! Crucio!” I saw my mother crumple to the ground as she passed out. The scene advanced a little, to the flash of green light that had burned into the back of my mind. I closed my eyes, waiting for the thump to confirm my brother’s death.
The last time I had this dream, Emily woke me up. Now it kept going; Past when my mother passed out, past when my brother died.
I saw younger me look between the bodies on the ground, then at my father, crazed and standing in the middle of the kitchen. Everything had gotten quiet. I was sobbing quietly, and had slid down the side of the counter curling up in a little ball on the ground.
I wanted to scream out, to kill my father then and there, but I couldn’t. My feet were stuck where they were.
My dad advanced on younger me, who looked up at the approaching footsteps. “Stay away from me!” I screamed.
“Seneca!” He sounded angry, and dazed, like he was drunk.
“No!” Younger me jumped up and darted away from my dad as he tried to reach for me.
He watched as I ran out into the hallway, wrenched open the front door, and down the street.
I remember this night perfectly. I had run straight to Emily’s house, and told her parents what had happened. Emily’s father worked at the Ministry, and he had left automatically to get help.
But right now, I was still standing in the kitchen, my father a few feet away, his back to me. Something happened then, something that I don’t remember ever happening.
My father turned, and stared straight at me. Older me. The sixteen year old me.
“I’ll get you.” He snarled. His wand arm raised. I saw it point at me, saw the flash of green light, and heard the two words of the unforgivable curse.
I woke up screaming. Remus jumped up, wide awake.
“What’s wrong?!” he half yelled.
I was sobbing crazily, but I didn’t care how much of a fool I looked like at the moment. The combination of my scream and Remus’s yell woke up half the common room, and some kids were thundering down the steps to the dormitories.
“Seneca, calm down.” He grabbed my shoulders. “You’re safe. Just relax.”
“Seneca, what’s the matter?” Lily and Emily were two of the few kids who appeared. Emily had her bathrobe half on, and was rubbing her eye’s sleepily.
“My dad.” I said between gasps of air.
“What about him?”
“He want’s to kill me.” I replied. Please reply

| Matt Lanter/The Dark Side/Anakin Skywalker/ Underland/Hookah Smoking Caterpillar Thanks guys! Here's the next little part!
“Seneca, I need you to calm down.” Remus said. He put his hands on my shoulders. I sat back in the seat as he kneeled, eye level, in front of me. “What was your dream about?”
“I saw the night my brother died. And… and my mother was passed out. I ran into the street. And my dad turned to me and said…” I spoke between sobs.
“Ok, just relax. You’re father’s in Azkaban and no one’s ever broke out of there. You’re safe.”
I nodded my head, but I still didn’t feel relaxed. I put my head in my hands and leaned on my legs. I could feel Emily and Lily sit down on either side of me. Seeing that everything seemed to be ok, some of the kids had dispersed back to their dormitories. Sirius and James moodily pushed past some first year kids, ho were climbing back up the stairs.
“What the hell is going on?”
James fixed his lopsided glasses and ruffled his already messy hair. Meanwhile Sirius blinked between me and Remus.
“Seneca?”
“I’m fine.” I stated, though I didn’t even convince myself. Lily stood up to stand next to James.
“No, Seneca, you’re not.” said Remus.
“We should tell professor Dumbledore.” said Emily from beside me.
“And say what? That I had some crazy dream about my murderer of a father?”
“It could mean something.” Replied Emily. “Remember in divination…?”
“I don’t think she’s been listening in that class lately.” Piped up Sirius. Remus cracked a smile in front of me, but it quickly faded at my glare.
“Look, it probably means nothing.” I said. “I’m sorry I woke you. You should probably get back to bed.”
“Are you sure?” asked Lily gently.
I nodded before Remus said, “Take her upstairs with you. The couch isn’t all that comfortable.”
Emily took my arm. Behind me the three boys exchanged nervous glances. Lily kissed James good-night, then walked behind me up the stairs to the dormitory. How was that??

| Matt Lanter/The Dark Side/Anakin Skywalker/ Underland/Hookah Smoking Caterpillar I know it's been a while, but here's the next part!
Emily watched me as I climbed into my bed. I glanced at Lily, who was busily fixing her pillows before I hastily pulled the curtains closed. Outside I heard Emily let out a sigh. She too climbed into her bed. Everyone finally settled down, but I pulled my knees to my chest and leaned against the headboard. I don’t know how long I was sitting there; Maybe a few minutes, maybe a few hours. I just sat there and stared at my feet, thinking. I wiped my face off with the back of my hand and sniffed. Finally I pulled part of the curtain aside and grabbed my wand which I had thrown on my nightstand, and my tin box in the drawer.
“Lumos.” I whispered, once again pulling the curtain closed.
My bed was thrown into a yellowish glow. I quietly opened the box and pulled out some of the letters. I skipped over the first one, and went directly to the oldest: A wrinkled piece of parchment from my first week at Hogwarts. Seneca,
Congratulations! I knew you would be in Gryffindor, I’m so proud of you. How are your classes? Did you make any new friends? You’ll be fine this year. I know you’ll do well.
I hope you write back soon.
Love, Mom.
I adjusted my wand and closed the letter. I shifted through some more and picked another up from about two years later. Seneca,
It sounds like this boy really likes you. Remus, he seems nice too. And James Potter? I think I know the name Potter. I might have heard it somewhere. How’s Emily? And her family? Tell them I sent my regards. I remember taking Divination at Hogwarts. That wasn’t my best class though, I liked Herbology. Good luck reading tea leaves!
Write back soon,
Mom
The letters were short, and they didn’t say much, but they were all I had left of her. I thought of my dad, and of the mug shot in the newspaper clipping I had.
I never want to see him again, I thought. He ruined my life, and I hope he dies in Azkaban.
At the very bottom of the box was an old yellowed picture. I pulled it out and put the letters back, then the lid on top of it.
The picture was of Ethan. His reddish-blonde hair was combed and it fell to his eyebrows. He was smiling, his perfect white teeth showing. He waved to me and I gave him a half smile. Thinking about it, I realized if he was still alive he would be 21. With a sigh, I put the picture down on the box and laid down. It felt like forever, but finally, sometime in the night, I fell asleep. So how was that???

| Matt Lanter/The Dark Side/Anakin Skywalker/ Underland/Hookah Smoking Caterpillar I know it's not much, but it's something!
“She needs to wake up.”
“No, just let her sleep.”
I could hear Emily and Lily fighting right beside my bed.
“Lily, we’re going to be late.” That was Emily.
“It doesn’t matter. She’s had a bad night. And besides, it’s only divination she’s going to miss.” That was Lily.
I groaned and sat up. The two fell silent as I pushed the curtains aside.
“What time is it?” I asked groggily.
“Late.” said Emily.
“Seneca, just stay here. I’ll tell the professor you’re not feeling well.”
“No. It’s ok. I’ll go.” I stood up and stretched.
“I’m going to go.” Said Emily. “I’ll meet you two in the classroom.”
I was pulling clothes out of my trunk when she ran down the stairs to the common room.
“So you’re ok?” asked Lily gently.
“Yeah, I’m fine.” I replied.
“Even with everything that happened last night?”
“Yes.” I snapped. “It was probably nothing.”
“Ok, if you say so.” her unbelieving tone didn’t make me feel any better.
“Go with Emily.” I said. “I don’t want to make you late.”
Lily took a step towards the door. “Are you sure?”
“Yeah.”
She disappeared as I threw on an old pair of robes. I quickly brushed my hair and then too ran down the stairs.
Remus was waiting at the bottom.
“Hey, are you okay?”
“Yes.” I said. I was beginning to get annoyed.
I looked around the common room. It was almost empty save for the marauders, who were goofing off in the corner, and me and Lily, who was walking over to talk to James.
“We should go.” I said suddenly. “I don’t want to be late.”
“ok.” said Remus quietly.
He took my hand and pulled me over to the Fat Lady’s Portrait. Kinda boring, I know. Leave your replies!
