Chapter Twenty-Four: Waking Up And Powers
When I woke up the first thing I noticed was the white sheet over my face. This left me extremely confused as I sat up. I immediately recognized where I was as a rather cold part of the dungeons. "What the hell happened?" I asked myself as I sat up. I noticed that I was in a simple white dress
with a small tiara on my head.
I looked down at the strange starburst scar in the middle of my chest. "Weird." I said. I stood up and began to walk upstairs, shocked to find the castle almost empty and the entire atmosphere just felt sad. I walked into the great hall where everyone was gathered but instead of the bright colors and warm atmosphere, it was covered in dark black and the room felt as cold as ice. I slowly stepped in when someone let out a scream. I jumped a little and quickly looked around. "What?! What's going on?!" I asked. Everyone turned to look at me. Not a second later I was tackled by Luffy, who choked out a sob. Soon mom, Claire, Hermione, Alec, Fred and George all hugged me. "You were dead! You died!" Luffy explained. I was shocked, hugging him back. "I did?" "Voldemort hit you with a killing curse." I heard Dumbledore say. I was beyond shocked at this point, unsure of what to say. "How you managed to survive is certainly a mystery to all here." He added. My mom turned and glared at him slightly. She ushered our large group towards the exit. "Victoria needs to go to the hospital wing." She said. Everyone nodded and let go, although Luffy didn't and I could understand why. He had just lost his crew, then his brother, and then me. If I were him I wouldn't let go either, and to be honest, I didn't want him too. I felt nothing but safety in his arms. Once we got to the hospital wing mom had him go so that Madam Pomfrey could check me over for any injuries. After this mom helped me change into a pair of pajamas that Hermione brought down for me.
As soon as he could come back in Luffy was at my side once again and I was thankful that he did. All I did was shake when he was gone. I snuggled close to him as I listened to mom and Madam Pomfrey talk. Suddenly Luffy looked down at me. "V, what's wrong with your eye?" He asked. I was confused. "What's wrong with it?" I asked. Luffy used his powers to grab a mirror from the other side of the room. He held it up so I could look in it. My right eye had changed from its normal lavender-blue to this.
"I....I don't know....." I said quietly. I was starting to get a little scared. Suddenly everything around us started to shake, and my hands began to grow hot. "V?" Luffy carefully grabbed my hands and the shaking stopped, and I began to cool down again. "What's going on?" I asked, starting to cry. "I don't know V, but we'll figure it out."
