Probably, the best part was, I wasn't even thinking about Harry Potter before I went to sleep. Not even once, all day. (It was odd.) And then I have this miracle of a dream, nay.. A vision. NAY. A prophecy!
There I was, running around the darkened lawn outside my chapel. (Incidentally my church was Hogwarts in the dream. It was just understood.) I saw my mommy and my sisters trying to hurry to the bushes. I motioned them forward past the Death Eaters and into the convenient shrubberies. But wait!! I was spotted. Instantly, I cried, "Crucio!" but felt a twinge of regret. It didn't take, of course. So I cried, "Stupefy!" They stood in their menacing black cloaks, frozen momentarily, and staring at me in disgust. I remember being shocked that they could see me. I looked down in panic, at my very visible body. Then for some reason I pantomimed popping my collar, and although the stun was beginning to wear off, they nodded their heads like, "Oh, okay. That means the invisibility cloak. We gotcha." Then I fled.
Obviously, a lot of action ensued and I can't be expected to recount all of it in detail... But my family and a lot of randoms from my life, (school, ward, the bank) were kicking butt in the battle. I encountered Nagini in a room, frozen in her bubble. At that moment I seemed to be carrying the sword of a lad named GODRIC GRYFFINDOR, so of course I started hacking away at the snake. Warning. This is about to get real and graphic. But I sliced through the skin and muscles and junk with ease. But the spine, I could not do. So it was floating there like some kind of kabob. Just... gruesome, really. In hindsight, I'm not sure why I didn't use my wand. Maybe cause subconsciously, I knew she as a horcrux. Either way, I had not the upper body strength to best the beast fully... So I left the state o' affairs like this:
Hey, sue me! I wasn't Harry Potter (I found a window and checked at one point, because I started to panic a little.) Anyway, I did kick some certifiable TAIL, though. At one point, I punched through a window to save a little kid from a Death Eater's hex (HE WAS ON FIRE!). My knuckles were totally bleeding and everything when I faced the Dark Lord, in the room with Nagini again. (Someone had in the meantime of my saving children - call me Lassy and give me a medal, right? - finished the job on her spine. PRAISE PROFFESOR WHOEVERITWAS.) And pretty sure I won, cause even though our encounter is fuzzy.... I woke up feeling more triumphant than ever before. Like... Heck yeah, I could punch through a window if you asked. Don't even fret! I just saved the entire WORLD. Bring on the DAY, already!!
Don't be too impressed or anything. But like... It's kind of a big deal, because until August 17, I'm not even of age in the Wizarding World yet. It was a sight harder trying to save everyone without being able to apparate, buuut. Pulled it off... You're welcome. (:
