Amelia's hair changed from silver to red and her eyes from red to green she let out a chuckle and smiled. "Mom, Dad? It's me. I have so much to ask you." The woman had tears rolling down her soft cheeks but a smile on her lips as she waved at Amelia. But as soon as the vision was there it was gone once again showing Amelia with the Andersons. The vision in the mirror switched repeatedly not lasting on one for more than a second. "What?" Amelia stumbled backward.

"The Mirror of Erised," chuckled a voice. Amelia whipped around to see Dumbledore standing in the hall behind her, "Many men have wasted away before it and driven mad by the visions."

"Good thing I'm a woman," answered Amelia. She could feel Dumbledore wasn't about to give her detention.

"Tell me child what do you see?"

Amelia turned back to face the mirror the visions still changing refusing to stay on one."I don't know. It -it keeps changing."

"Hm. Tell me what you see what is it changing to and from?"

Amelia glanced over his shoulder. He couldn't be serious? Maybe he couldn't see what was in the mirror? Amelia looked at the mirror the visions still flashing and changing. She took a small breath.

"My family, the Anderson they are smiling at me. But then it changes to Harry and who I'm guessing are our parents they look happy to see me waving and smiling the woman who I belive is my mother is happily crying. What does that mean?"

Amelia turned to face Dumbledore who smiled his eyes crinkling near his half-moon-shaped glasses. "The Mirror of Erised shows one nothing but the deepest most desperate desire of their hearts. You are unsure about yours. You miss your family but you also crave to know what life might have been like if you were raised by your birth parents, is that not correct?"

Amelia sighed heavily. She loved her family they did raise her after all but she couldn't help but wonder what it would have been like to grow up with Harry and for them to be raised by their birth parents what her life could have been like.

"That is correct."

"A word of advice. Don't go chasing what you see in the mirror it is dangerous. The life you may have had with your parents and brother was taken away from you a long time ago and not even magic can bring that life back but that shouldn't stop you from living the life you have now."

"It won't professor thank you." Amelia picked up her lantern.

"Now I will let you off the hook this once but no more sneaking out of bed at night understand?" asked Dumbledore peering at Amelia over his glasses Amelia gave a small nod.
