The day after the Quidditch accident, Sabrina lay in bed, staring up at the ceiling. Now that both she and Natalie were doing better, mostly everyone was gone. Elle and Lucie were nearby, but both were sleeping.
Sabrina turned her head and looked over at Natalie. Her little sister was sleeping, but by the sounds she was making, she was not sleeping peacefully. She should have taken the potion that Severus had been making for her.
"Natty?" she said softly. "Nat, wake up. It's OK. I'm here."

Natalie was in the middle of another dream--this one about the scary, inhuman man with the red eyes rising up out of a cauldron and tormenting a little boy in a graveyard--when she heard a voice calling her name. She wanted to follow that voice, to escape from the horrible nightmare. She shook slightly and forced her eyes to open. "Sabrina?" she whispered.

Sabrina slipped out of her bed and crept over to Natalie's bed. "Hey, Natty," she said softly, lying down next to her sister. "How are you feeling?"

Natalie shifted in her bed to be closer to her sister. "I'm tired, Bree," she said softly. "And I'm scared. Too many bad things are happening..."

Sabrina hugged her sister. "It's going to be OK, I promise. Just hang in there, OK?"

"But it's not," Natalie said. "I know what's going to happen, Bree. I can see it. And it won't change. It never changes. Please... please don't try to go after Mum's killer..." She looked up at Sabrina with tears in her eyes.

Sabrina wiped her sister's tears away. "Can you really see the future, Natty? Tell me, what do you see?"

Natalie pulled away a little. "I do see the future. Not always, but sometimes. And sometimes I see what a person is hiding and I feel their emotions like they were mine. Bree, you have to promise not to go after Mum's killer... Please promise..."

"OK, I won't," Sabrina lied. "I promise. Please, Natty, tell me what you see. What did you see when you touched me at the Quidditch pitch? What made you pass out?"

"You're lying," Natalie said bluntly. "I just told you I can see people's secrets and feel their emotions. You're just telling me what I want to hear but you don't mean it. Listen, you can't go after him, OK? He's going to kill you. I saw it in my vision."

Sabrina stared at her sister. "Is that what you saw? You saw me dying?"

"Yes," Natalie said, tears filling her bright green eyes. "I saw him killing you. You go to him and accuse him of killing our parents, and he just laughs at you. Then you have a duel, and you almost kill him... but you can't. And then he kills you instead. And he just stands there over you, laughing..." Natalie burst into tears and hid her face in her pillow.

Sabrina put her arms around Natalie and held her close. "It's OK, Natty, I promise. I'm not going to die, OK? Please don't cry..."

Natalie looked up, her face streaked with tears. "That's what Mummy said," she whispered. "I told her what i saw, and she swore she wouldn't die... and she did. Exactly as i saw it. And then Daddy... I saw him dying and I told him... he promised he wouldn't die... he said he'd stay away from the veil, but he didn't... I see things, and even when I warn people, I can't stop them from happening! You're going to die, Bree... I don't want you to, but you are... I even know who's going to kill you..."

Sabrina held her sister close and tried to calm her. But the younger girl's words kept ringing in her head. I even know who's going to kill you... If Natalie knew who was going to kill her, that meant that she knew who had killed their parents... "Who is it?" she asked softly. "Who do you think is going to kill me?"

Natalie shook her head. "I'm not going to tell you. If you know who it is, then you'll go after him. And then he'll kill you. I may not be able to stop what happens, but I'm not going to send you to your death!"

Sabrina frowned. "But if it's going to happen anyway, then why try to stop me? Isn't it better that I know who I'm up against, so I can be prepared? Please, Nat, just tell me who it is. I promise I won't go after him. I'll just talk to one of the Aurors... maybe they can arrest him. Please?"

Natalie looked at her sister seriously. "You swear you won't go after him?" she whispered.

Sabrina nodded and held up her right hand, making an X over her chest with the other hand. "Cross my heart and hope to--uh... well, you know."

Natalie took a deep breath. "It's... it's the man who was at the memorial service. The scary one who everyone kept yelling at, who went inside with Ms. Rothschild."
