We all arrive at the Great Hall for breakfast and McGonagall hands us all our time tables, I have the same lessons as I did last year so do most of the group apart from Fred, George and Lee who were now discussing ways they could make themselves older to enter the Triwizard Tournament.
"Are they seriously still talking about it?" Alicia asks looking up from her time table.
"Yes they are." I say slightly rolling my eyes at the three of them.
"So we have Defence Against the Dark Arts first, everyone is doing that right?" Angelina asks.
"Yeah, I think it's the only lesson we are all together in." I say to them all as I eat my porridge.
"And us five are in the rest of our classes together?" Jack asks.
"I think so, apart from when you all do divination." I say to the group.
We all ate breakfast while Fred, Lee and George keep talking about ways to age themselves up.
"I love how, he has taken no notice of me this morning, even though he said he'll talk to me." I say as finish my bowl of porridge.
"Really?" Melody asks.
"Yes, it's like half the time he can be clever and the other half of the time, he is so stupid." I say grabbing my pumpkin juice and finishing the contents in the glass.
I look at the clock in the Great Hall, "I suppose we should make our way to DADA," I say as I get up, Angelina, Alicia, Melody and Jack all follow.
"Are you not going to wait for Fred?" Angelina asks.
"Nope, he doesn't care about grades anyway, I can't afford to loose out because of him." I say speeding off to DADA, when I bump into someone.
"Oh sorry, Cedric, I wasn't looking where I was going." I say to the boy.
"It's fine y/n, I wasn't looking properly either, Defence Against the Dark Arts?" He asks.
"Yeah, same class?" I ask him.
"Yeah, where's Fred and George?" He asks me and I roll my eyes slightly.
"Don't get me started on them, want to walk to DADA with me?" I ask him and he nods.
We walk down the last strip of the corridor, "if you want to know, they want to enter the Triwizard Tournament but they don't turn seventeen until April so they are thinking of stupid ways to enter." I say as we reach the classroom.
"Sounds like them indeed, are you going to enter?" He asks me.
"Oh no, I don't turn seventeen until December anyway, are you going to enter?" I say to him.
"Yeah, I turn seventeen next week." He tells me.
I walk to a desk at the front, "come and sit next to me." I say to him and he obliges.
"Are you sure, I know Fred normally sits next to you." He tells me.
"Yeah it's fine." I say getting my things out for the lesson.
Everyone else arrives for the lesson apart from the twins and Lee, the class is Hufflepuff and Gryffindor as they needed to split the year up as many people passed the Defence Against the Dark Arts OWL.
I hear the door open once again from behind me, and see Lee, George and Fred.
As we usually sat in the second row, Fred looked there to find me, but the seat was empty he then saw my face and saw Cedric sitting next to me and his face showed how angry he was as he sat down behind me.
"Why is she sitting with him?" Fred asks the rest of our friend group and they all shrug their shoulders at him.
"Ask her yourself, maybe it has to do with the fact you have ignored her all morning!" Melody whispers yells at him.
"Y/n why-" before Fred could ask me the question Moody walked into the classroom with the clanking of his fake leg silencing the classroom.
"You can put those away, those books you won't need them." He says as he reaches the desk.
He lifts up the register and said the list of names that were on there.
"Right then, I've had a letter from Professor Lupin about this class. Seems you've had a pretty thorough grounding in tackling Dark creatures is that right?" Moody asks the class and we all nod in agreement.
"So this year we are going to be going over curses. So I'm here to bring you up to scratch on what wizards can do to each other. I've got one year to reach you how to deal with Dark Magic." Moody says.
"What, aren't you staying?" Fred asks and Moodys magical eye spins around to stare at him.
"You'll be one of Arthur Weasley's sons then, eh? Your father got me out of a very tight corner a few days ago. But yeah I'm staying just the one year. Special favour to Dumbledore... one year then back to my quite retirement." He says.
"So straight into it. Curses. They come in many strengths and forms. Now where you all are sixth years I can show you what illegal Dark curses look like. So do any of you know which curses are most heavily punished by wizarding law?" He asks the class and hands shoot up including mine.
He points at me, "the three unforgivable curses, the use of any one of them will land you in Askaban." I say to him.
"Can anyone name one of these unforgivable curses?" Moody asks the class and he points at someone behind me it was Fred.
"Er, my dad told me about one, the Imperius curse."
"Ah, yes, your father would have known that one. Gave the Ministry a lot of trouble at one time, the Imperius curse." Moody said opening a drawer on his desk and taking out a glass jar. It had three large spiders in it and I shifted uncomfortably in my seat.
Moody reached into the jar and caught one of the spiders, holding it in the palm of his hands so we could all see and with his other hand he pointed his wand at the spider and muttered "imperio!"
The spider leapt from Moody's hand and began swinging backwards and forwards. It stretched out its legs rigidly, then did a backflip. Then landing on the desk, where is began to cartwheel in circles. Moody jerked his wand and the spider rose into two of its hind legs and looked like it was dancing and we all started laughing except from Moody.
"This it's funny do you? You'd like it, would you, if I did it to you?" He asks the class as the class fell into silence immediately.
"Total control, I could make it jump out of the window, drown itself..." he said as the spider balled up and began to roll over.
"Years back, there were a lot of witches and wizards being controlled by the Imperius curse," Moody told us all, and most of us knew what he was talking about.
"The Imperius curse can be fought, and I'll be teaching you how, but it takes real strength of character and not everyone's got it. Better avoid being hit with it if you can. Constant vigilance!" he shouts and we all jump.
"Anyone else know one?" Another illegal curse?" Moody asks the class and jacks hand shoots up.
"Yes?" Moody said and his magical eye rolling over to fix on Jack.
"There's one the activists curse" he said.
"It's Belford isn't? Your dads a very good Auror, worked with him a few times." He says before grabbing another spider out of the jar.
"The Cruciatus curse, needs to be a bit bigger for you to get the idea," pointing his wand at the spider, "engorgio" the spider grew in size and I felt even more uncomfortable then before.
Moody raised his wand at the spider again and muttered "Crucio!"
The spiders legs bent in upon its body; it rolled over and began to twitch horribly, rocking from side to side. No sound coming from it but if it could it would be screaming. It started to jerk more violently. He then put the spider down, "reducio," he said and the spider shrank back down to it's original size and puts it back in the jar.
"Pain, you don't need thumbscrews or knives to torture someone if you can perform the Cruciatus curse... that one was very popular once, too." He says, I knew death eaters used this on people to get information out of them including Neville Longbottoms parents.
"Right anyone know any others?" Moody asks the class and my hand goes in the air.
"Yes?" He says with both eyes fixating on me.
"The killing curse, Avada Kedavra." I say quietly and you can hear other student shift uncomfortably.
"Yes, the last and the worst. Avada Kedavra." Moody says.
He puts his hand back into the jar and grabbed another spider and Moody raised his wand.
"Avada Kedarvra!" Moody roared.
I saw the flash of green light and it was like before.
I was in a house as a toddler and I see someone who looks like me shout at a figure, "don't hurt her she's innocent, she's a baby!"
I'm crying all over again as a toddler when the figure shouts, "Avada Kedavra!" And the women who looks like me is shot with a flash of green light is now laying dead on the floor.
"Mummy!" I scream.
I get out of the day dream feeling dizzy and I stand up to get out of the classroom I needed fresh air and everything went black, as I hit the stone cold floor.
- - Fred POV - -
I see y/n get up she looks scared, then she falls on to the floor and everyone rushes over to her and I'm the first one there song with Cedric.
"We need to take her to Madam Pomfrey." Cedric says.
"Yeah, you're right." I scoop her into my arms.
"Right, you two can go with her." Moody says and he point to Cedric and I, really this guy?
I stand up with her in my arms she has tears on her cheeks that are starting to dry up and we walk in an awkward silence to the infirmary.
"Oh, dear, what's happened to Avery this time?" Madam Pomfrey asks, rushing me to put her on a bed.
"Well, Professor Moody, was showing us the three unforgivable curses on spiders and he done the killing curse and she started crying. She got up to leave the room and she just passed out." Cedric tells her.
"She'll be okay, right the two of you should go to lessons." She said to the pair of us.
"Yeah, I'll tell Snape that she won't be in today." Cedric says.
"I don't have anything now, can I stay?" I ask Madam Pomfrey, looking at y/n breathing lightly laying on the bed.
"It's best if you give her time to rest come back at lunch time." She ushers is both off before tending back to y/n.
"You know, you shouldn't of been such an arse to y/n, she's a nice girl." Cedric tells me, is he trying to tell me how to treat my girlfriend.
"What do you mean?" I ask him.
"She cares about you and doesn't want you to do stupid things." He tells me and I roll my eyes.
"Is she still going on about that whole thing? It's not that bad." I say to him.
"I think she is scared that if you enter you'll get hurt or die." Cedric tells me.
"I wouldn't do that to her." I say.
"Well maybe you should show her." He tells me before walking down to the dungeons for potions.
I'm going to go back to the infirmary, I need to see if she's okay now. I go to knock on the door and hear Pomfrey talking to someone, my guess was my parents as they were now her legal careers, they must of got here by floo powder.
"This is what I was meant to talk to you about Arthur." My mum says to my father. "She said she has been having nightmares since the quidditch World Cup, something to do with her parents and the dark mark."
What? Is it like the one she had yesterday on the train.
"What did she exactly say?" My dad questions my mum.
"She said that she was calling out for her parents as a toddler but her parents were standing with her and the dark mark was over this house." My mum tells my dad as they walk over to y/n's bed side and my mum stroke y/n's hair out of her face softly.
"Do you think it could have something to do with Katherine's, y/n's mum, sister Elizabeth?" My father asks.
"Possibly no body ever confirmed the rumours that she had a child, but she fits the age and she does look like Elizabeth as well." My mum says to my father, I stand behind the gap in between the two oak doors.
I knock on the door and interrupts the conversation, before pushing the door open.
"Shouldn't you be in lessons?" My mum asks me.
"I have a free, and I'm worried about her, do we have any idea of what has happened to her?" I ask them and they look between each other.
"Not that we know of, you should go and find George and take your mind off of things." My father says.
"But I-" start to protest.
"Fred, she'll be fine, we will wait until she wakes up and you can come back." My mum tells me.
"Fine." I say walking out the door to the common room.
What do they mean she's been having nightmares, have I really not noticed them?

A/n: hope you enjoyed this chapter, as we find out more about these nightmares y/n has been having. I also wanted to add in some drama which will progress in the next ten chapters. I wanted to add a different POV and now was the perfect time to do so.
