It had been a the whole summer after defeating Ranrok since Eden Starkhaven had last heard from Sebastian Sallow. It was as if he had disappeared from the face of the earth entirely. Feeling cast aside and used, she had hopes that returning to Hogwa...

"Eden..."
"He is coming Eden, you must be careful!" Professor Fig said to me in the dark.
I looked around for him, but even with Lumos I couldn't find him.
"Professor!" I yelled, running around in the blackness.
"Ready yourself Eden, be on your guard." He called out to me.
Suddenly I saw him, illuminated in the darkness, a distance from me.
"Professor Fig!" I yelled, running towards him, but the more I ran, the farther away he was. I couldn't reach him.
The darkness swallowed him whole.
I gasped as I sat bolt upright.
The fireplace in the Undercroft crackled and illuminated the room in the darkness, and the blankets slipped off my shoulder as the warmth of the fire warmed my bare skin.
Sebastian sat up, wrapping his arm around me from behind "Eden what's wrong?" He asked me softly, the sleepiness in his voice melting my heart.
"I had a dream...something is coming Sebastian...and I think it's soon" I said to him troubled. The first dream, the two visions, and now this dream. I know my mind wasn't playing tricks on me. I knew this wasn't just anxiety trying to bite me. This was something serious. Something, or someone was coming.
Sebastian rubber my back gently in attempt to ease my mind "What did you see in this dream?" He asked me slowly, I could hear the concern in his voice.
"I saw Professor Fig...he came to me in the dream and warned me...he told me that he was coming. I don't know who it is, but I feel it in my core Sebastian. Something isn't right" I explained as I sat up, allowing the blankets to fall to my hips.
Sebastian sat up with me, kissing the back of my shoulders gently "We will get through this, we will" he said to me seriously "No matter what it is, you will not face it alone".
I nodded my head and leaned back against his chest as he wrapped his arms around me from behind. We sat in silence as we watched the fire burning, relishing in its warmth and the warmth of one another's bodies against each other. I knew he was right, I knew we would prevail through thick and thin.
I just wish I knew what to expect.
Morning
Everyone had made their way to the great hall for morning breakfast. It was Halloween and classes got out early today around lunch time. I was excited to spend an actual Halloween in Hogwarts. 5th year was such chaos that I had completely missed the Halloween feast and festivities.
I wished Professor Fig were here to spend it with us. I wish I never took my time with him for granted. All the help he gave me, the guidance and the wisdom. I wished there was some way I could've saved him from his fate.
