Chapter Eighteen

Colette's POV

"GRYFFINDOR!" yelled the hat. I grinned. I vaguely remember my mom saying she was in Gryffindor. But the memory isn't clear, like it was forced. Come to think of it, I can't really remember my mom. Or my dad. I furrow my eyebrows in confusion. I shake my head. Probably just the rush of things taking over my mind.

"Where is the Gryffindor common room?" I ask sweetly. I remember someone saying that, being who I am, I need to act sweet and like a Gryffindor. I'm here on a mission.....but I can't remember what it is.

"It is located on the seventh floor behind the portrait of the Fat Lady," replies a stern-looking old woman. "The password is Pig Snout. And for future reference, I'm Professor McGonagall."

I snort. What a strange password, and last name

I turn around and see the same group of girls from before looking at me. "What are you all looking at?" I exclaim, glaring at them. Something isn't right.

"Well, it's just..." One girl with blond hair began. "You look exactly like our friend, who was just kidnapped..."

"Well, that's weird. Bye!" I turn around. I feel cheery. I remember someone saying I should be cheery all the time, and evil wouldn't get to me. All of a sudden, my head throbs.

I drop my trunk, uttering a not-so-nice word as it crushes my toes. My fingers clutch my head as a name comes to mind. Ashlynn Potter. That's the name of the girl that was kidnapped. How do I know that?

Wait, I should know her name is Ashlynn. When I entered the Great Hall, that group of girls almost yelled that at me. That's how much I should know. But how do I know her last name?

I search my brain for answers. Come to think of it, I can't remember anything. No memories at all. There are some, but they're fake. Someone put them into my mind.

Who am I?

Rim's POV

"I know something's up. This Colette," Maddie looks at us all, Pansy, Taylor, Britney, Sarah, and me. "This Colette, she looks exactly like our Ashlynn. Exactly the same."

"Her long lost twin, maybe?" I suggest. Thinking for a moment, I add in a murmur, "Well, I guess triplet..."

"What do you mean by triplet?" Britney says in confusion.

I jerk my head up. I didn't think when I said that. I search my brain for an excuse, and then realize one that was available by pure coincidence.

"Harry Potter," I say in a matter-of-fact tone. "Since Harry is Ashlynn's twin, adding Colette would make them all triplets, right?"

"Oh yeah, why didn't we remember that?" Taylor facepalms. "But I never heard of a third Potter child."

"Yeah, me neither," Sarah speaks up. "Are we overthinking this? Maybe she just looks like Ashlynn by coincidence."

"But right after Ashlynn is taken, a girl that looks just like her comes in," Taylor replies. "That can't be just a coincidence."

"You do have a point there," Sarah responds. "Look, we don't have enough information to figure this out. Let's just drop it, talk about something else."

"Umm..." Maddie has to think of what to say for once. "When do you guys think the Quidditch game will be?"

"Probably like in a few weeks or something," Britney replies in monotone.

"This is depressing!" Maddie whines. "Let's do something fun!"

"Like what?" Pansy asks dully.

"MOVIE NIGHT!" Taylor shouts. "Let's watch Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs Two."

"Hmm, I've never seen that," I respond. "Let's give it a try!"

Half an hour later and I'm literally groaning out of boredom. The movie sucked. It was about living food and some crap....Of course, Sarah and the others loved it.

Good thing they're having fun while they can.

Hello!

Sorry it's been so long.

I blame laziness as usual.

Sorry it's short, it's just:

A) I felt like I needed to update

And

B) It seemed like a good place to end it

Bye!
