A walk in the forest

[goblet_fulla_fire]

"What happened a few months ago?" asked Goblet.

[Sky]

She looked at the ground. "Its..." She started. "Theres alot to say." She said quietly.

"Couldn't be that hard to explain if you're intelligent now," Goblet joked.

[Sky]

Sky sighed and motioned for him to sit down on the nearest log. She sat down on it and began explaining. "A little while ago...I had joined the Dark Lord. I knew how deep of a hole I was getting myself into, but never did anything about it. I left the school and miraculously escaped Vold...Voldemort. I found a way to get rid of his mark. It was the worst pain I had had in my entire life." She pulled up the sleeve of her hoodie to reveal a burn from her elbow to her shoulder. She sighed again. "I took a potion that neuralized the magical effects of the mark so I could never be tracked again. But I couldn't face seeing the mark on my arm again. I burnt it like an idiot." She looked in the direction of the school. "I risk alot being back here."

"Oh," said Goblet. He found it hard to believe that a girl like Sky could be involved in something that was so dark. "It's great to see that you have made a full redemption, but unfortunately you can't change the past. The only thing one can do is deal with it. Sorry to put it so bluntly, but it's true."

[Sky]

She felt her eyes watering. Her past hurt her alot in so many ways. It wasn't only embarrassing, but ashaming. She didn't mean to join with the dark, but she did. And Goblet was right. You can't change your past.


You Can't Change Your Past.


Sky looked at Goblet, and though him being just a new friend to her, she hugged him. "You're right. I can't. Thank you."

[goblet_fulla_fire]

Goblet felt slightly uneasy, but felt glad to be Sky's only friend here. He patted her on the back. "Right..." said Goblet. "Your welcome."

[Sky]

Sky stood up and felt akward herself. She looked like a total idiot to Goblet. She was sure of it. She took out her wand and made bubbles come out of it.

[goblet_fulla_fire]

Goblet could sense her embarrassment easily. "Please don't be embarrassed. It's quite all right for you to open up to me. I know you weren't thinking, but it's healthy for you to be vulnerable time to time. It's all right," assured Goblet.

[Sky]

Sky looked at him. "You don't get it. No, I can't change my past, but I still did the wrong things! I followed the worst person in the world next to satan...I let him get to me. I let my past drag me into the dark." She felt the tears coming again and turned away. She couldn't let Goblet see her cry like this.

[goblet_fulla_fire]

"I'm not exactly a saint, Sky," said Goblet. "You can keep mulling over the past, but you should be glad of the fact that you chose to leave one of the most evil and influential people on the planet. It wasn't easy to do and doesn't exactly happen everyday. You're more along the side of good than I am, if you can believe that."

[Sky]

She took in a deep breath. "Im sorry I'm pouring all of this out on you. You don't deserve it." She wiped her eyes and faced him. "I just need a little more time to get things back on track." She put her wand back in her pocket and pulled a small, worn picture from her pocket and looked at it before putting it back.


"I need to let go."

[goblet_fulla_fire]

"However hard it may to start letting it all out," said Goblet, wondering what the photo was of but still talking, "once you do, it'll seem like you can't stop. And you will feel better afterwards. I can you promise you that. And I'll be here, if you need me."

[Sky]

Sky nodded. "Thank you Goblet. I guess I'm gonna go back to the school now." She waved to him and ran off, the photo flying out of her pocket and onto the ground. Sky didn't notice it fly out.

It was a photo of her parents and her from when she was six.

[goblet_fulla_fire]

Goblet looked down at the photo that had flown from Sky's pocket. Goblet picked it up and gazed at it close to his face. He saw what was a much younger Sky and with the older figures who must have been her parents. Does she always carry it around? Goblet wanted to keep looking at it, to fully grasp the concept of losing one's parents. But if she always carries this photo around, then she must treasure it deeply. Goblet decided to give it back. "Sky!" he called out.
