The day before, when Lisa went to sleep, she was very excited about Occlumency. But she was afraid that Dumbledore will think she`s week. That night she, again, had bad dreams. She was at the graveyard again. It was a funeral. Her funeral. There were a lot of people she didn`t know. She knew only her mum, dad, brother and Jake from there. They closed the tomb and went away. Nobody was crying. At that moment someone hit Jake with Avada Kedavra spell and he just fell on the ground, dead. Then her mum, then dad and at last her brother Seamus fell dead on the ground. A wand was flying just above Lisa`s grave. Lisa woke up, instantly.
"What`s wrong? What happened?", Zara asked concerned when they went to breakfast.
"Bad dreams, again", Lisa answered.
"After tonight, no more bad dreams", Maya said smiling.
"Well, yeah, I hope so."
"Dumbledore will fix it all", Amy said.
"Don`t be so sure. Occlumency is a skill you have to practise a lot", Luna added.
"What do we have first?", Zara asked when Lisa and she were walking to the dorms.
"Transfiguration. Have you done all the homework?"
"Yes. Hardly, but yes."
Proffesor McGonagall gave them 20 inches long essay on Inanimatus Conjurus spell for homework. After that they had History of magic. Lisa almost fell asleep during it. It was the only class she wasn`t perfect in. History of magic was definitely the most boring subject. Proffesor Binns was a ghost and almost no one could resist the sleep on his class.
Lisa skipped lunch cause she wasn`t hungry. She was getting more and more excited about Occlumency lessons during the day. Zara stayed in the common room and Lisa went to Arithmancy in the afternoon. She could hardly concentrate during the class.
Finally, 8 o`clock was getting closer. Lisa headed towards Dumbledore`s office. The doors, this time, weren`t opened.
"Bertie Bott's Every Flavour Beans ", Lisa said, and the doors opened. Dumbledore was sitting in his office smiling.
"Welcome, miss Lovegood", he said, smiled but quickly continued: "We don`t have much time, so we should start right away. Do you know anything about Occlumency?"
"Yes, I do. I searched the library and found few usefull facts."
"Right, I will be teaching you it so you don`t have problems with bad dreams any more.", he looked mysterious: " Of course, we can`t expect you to know it right away. Lot of practise will be needed. Draw your wand, please."
Lisa drew her wand from her pocket.
"I am going to try to enter your mind and you try to stop me anyhow, ok"
Lisa just nodded her head. Dumbledore drew his wand and said: "Legimens!"
Lisa started seeing her dreams again, she was in a grave, dead. Her whole family (and Jake) dropped dead on the ground. Then, dream continued. She didn`t woke up as the last time, but she saw the ending of her dream. A man came closer to her grave and started laughing. His wand was flying right by him and he said: "Inferio!"
Lisa got back to reality at that moment. Dumbledore looked very upset. "Who was that man?", he said, angry.
"I dunno... This is the first time I see him"
"But you have had this dream once?"
"Yes, last night, but I saw just the beggining of it."
"Right... Well, I think this is enough for today. You may go.", he was still very upset. Lisa just started walking out, disappointed.
"Miss, Lovegood. Please, try to practise this every night. Before you go to sleep, try to empty your mind."
Lisa walked away, scared of her own dreams.
