Destiny

I'm a natural idiot

~Albus's POV~
The plan we had thought of could have been going better I'll admit, but at least we were sort of out of the planning stage. Who am I kidding? This plan changed more then a chameleon.
Me and Rose were in class with professor Binns again, trying to get him to talk about the fake prophecy.
"Professor, you mentioned something about the prophecy of 1238, can you tell us more?" Rose asked.
"The wizarding war lasted-" he droned ignoring Rose. This old man was getting very frustrating.
"SIR!" Yelled a Ravenclaw called David who sat at the back of the class "YOUR TWO STUDENTS HAVE BEEN BEGGING YOU TO TELL THEM ABOUT THE PROPHECY OF 1238 FOR A WEEK! PLEASE JUST ANSWER THEM!"
Professor Binns acted like he didn't even hear David. Rose's face was bright red, and she kept fixing her hair but also hiding her face. Wonder what that's all about. I sat through history absolutely buzzing with excitement for flying lessons later today. The slytherins are taking them with the hufflepuff's. Wile Zoe's been gone Octavia hasn't really been talking to us much. She has been hanging out with some other Hufflepuff girls so I would really just be talking to Crystal and Scorpios.
The rest of the day went rather slowly. Last thing I had before flying was potions. Slughorn once again asked me to join the slug club when I walked in, but we agreed I wouldn't until we got the plan sorted.
Me and scorpious were making some potion that I can't pronounce the name of when gasps erupted all around us. I looked up to see a girl with Raven black long hair and grey calculating eyes standing there nervously . "ZOE!" I exclaimed earning some weird looks from the kids around me. She nodded her head at me and proceeded to make her way to an empty spot to brew her potion. Octavia physically moved a kid out the way so she could talk to Zoe. For the rest of the lesson she acted like she hadn't been gone for multiple weeks. Kids questioned her but she ignored most of them.
Finally at the end of the lesson I could go find Zoe. I looked around desperately and finally set my eyes on her.
"Zoe!" I yelled. She turned around with a huge smile on her face.
"Albus!" She gave me a huge hug which came as a bit of a shock for me but I just hugged her back.
"Oh Zoe you don't understand how boring it's been without you!" I exclaimed "what made you decide to come back?"
She thought about it for a second "I guess it was your letters. You guys really need my help with the plan don't you?"
I nodded vigorously causing her to giggle.
"Hey Albus did Slughorn ask you about-" Crystal cut off seeing Zoe "your back?"
"Yep. And who are you?"
Crystal rolled her eyes. "This is Crystal. She's in slytherin with me and Scorpios".
Zoe's eyes suddenly furrowed as she stormed off muttering something about Octavia.
I turned angrily to Crystal "what was that about?"
She shrugged and walked off calmly.

Finally it was time for flying lessons. When we got out there Crystal tried to drag me to the farthest spot that we could possibly get from Zoe but I ignored her and stood next to Zoe anyway.
"I can't wait to finally fly!" She squealed excitedly.
"It's not that amazing" Scorpios mumbled gloomily.
Zoe looked taken aback "really? I've never actually flown before though. My father doesn't want to get truck out of the sky by Zues".
"What" all three of us said in unison causing her to blush and then laugh nervously.
"That was a joke guys. Obviously" she broke into nervous laughter again.
"Hello class today will be your first flying lesson" called Oliver Wood.
All the students turned and started at him. "So today class we are going to stand at the side of your broom, hold out her hand and say up".
"But that's easy" called Crystal.
"Good. Then it shouldn't take too long".
She rolled her eyes, sticking out her hand and yelling up. Crystal was the last student with her broom in her hand.
"Ok students, I want you to mount your broom, and then try to hover for as long as you can".
This was it, my chance to ride a broom. You might be thinking, why haven't you rode a broom yet? My parents say I'm too young to ride a broom until I go to hogwarts so this is the first time I've ever had the chance to ride one.
My hand was shaky but I managed to sit on it, "how do we make it fl-" I started before I accidentally pushed too hard off of the grind and ended up soaring through the sky. The wind in my hair felt amazing.
"Good job Potter" Professor Wood called from the other side of the quidditch pitch"now come back here".
I unsteadily flew back and touched back down on the ground. "You're a natural just like your father" Oliver said.
"Thanks" I bit my tongue. Can't do anything without his name popping up.
I walked back over to where the others were, angrily hold my broom. Crystal and Octavia were laughing, Zoe was sitting on the ground and Scorpios was helping her up.
"What happened?" I asked.
It took 5 minutes for Crystal to finally calm down and answer. "Zoe was mounting her broom when I yelled 'Look a bird' and she summer saluted off her broom".
I looked over to Zoe and mouthed 'you ok?' She nodded but walked off.
After class, me, Crystal and Scorpios were all walking to my common room when I bumped into Rose who was walking with a second year I recognised.
"Your James's friend from when we were at diagonally" I said to the girl.
"Friend is an overstatement, along with enemy" she grumbled.
"Sorry I mentioned it" I said putting my hands up in surrender. "Well it's nice to meet you, I'm Albus, this is Scorpios and this is Crystal".
"I'm Alicia" she said Rudely "I'll see you in the common room Rose" and she stormed off.
"She doesn't like James very much" Rose shrugged and then went to walk with us. "Did you see that Zoe's back?" I asked her.
She nodded "me and Max both said hi to her earlier. We were discussing-" she stopped in her tracks to look at the empty hall. Well more like the writing down the empty hall.
In bright orange ink on the floor was written I have taken one of your students and I will continue to take one of your students whenever I feel like it until you give me the two things I desire. The two children of the prophecy.
