"I don't this time." I sigh. "Most things I can forgive, and the same with her. But there are some things neither of us can. And we both managed to sucessfully do two of those things that we can't forgive."

"Well, you can atleast try," I said, "If it doesn't work out, then I hope the both of you don't regret in the near future what you are doing by not saving your friendship."

I decide I might feel better if I tell her so I start speaking, to see what advice she'd be able to give if she knew the whole story.
"See, there's me and Jo, and we've been friends since we were kids. And it wasn't just us. It was Kia, my twin Kia, and Nathan, her brother. And we were all friends, our parents were all gone so it was just us, sticking together, you know? And then we lost contact because me and Kia got taken away. Then I come back, Kia dead and I find Jo again and I find out Nathan's dead too. Murdered. Like Kia. And here's where it get's complicated. I'm in the Order of the Phoenix, seeking revenge for Kia. Jo's a-...a-...on the otherside, looking for revenge for Nathan. So, we're on different sides now, and we both feel like we've betrayed each other and I know she wants out and I want out too now, and I don't know what to do."

"Wow, that is complicated," I stated, "If I am not mistaken, if Jo leaves she can be killed. If you try to rescue her, you can be killed. In my opinion it is a no win situation. You would be putting the each other in danger, unless you can find a way to get her out by getting her to turn herself in and then go to the courts and Dumbledore to prove her innocence, by showing that she has done nothing wrong and by getting her to release the information she has on Voldemort's position. But there is also the chance she might end up in Azkaban. I can't give you a straight answer, but if you truely understand each others need for the other, than you should be able to find a way that would keep you both safe."

"I don't want her to die." I say quietly. "I would rather I died than she did. She's one of the few people I'd willingly die for so that she could live, or be free. But I just can't see a way out of this."

"I wish that I could be of more help," I said, "But I don't know the full extent of your friendship with her, the Order, and the war against the Death Eaters."

"Yes, I suppose. Funny really, no one has any clue what to do." I sigh. "Peter keeps looking at me sadly and telling me not to give up on her, but I'm hopeless to be honest. I have no idea what to do."

"You could go to Dumbledore," I said, "He may be a little weird, but he knows much. Maybe he can help you and Jo."

"I wouldn't want to get her in any more trouble." I say sadly. "She told me it's none of my business and she didn't have to explain herself. I'd just cause more trouble if I tried to get help for her right now."

"Well," I said, "Let her calm down and think about what she wants right now. Hopefully she will find what she wants and hopefully she'll come to you."

"Don't worry, she will," I said, "The two of you share a bond deeper than most people here share with their friends. The two of you grew up together."

"But I left her." I say quietly. "We left her. We all did. Her brother grew up and went off to do his own thing. Kia and I went off elsewhere, and we all left her. I left her."

"Is it just me or are you guys hopeless?" I asked, "It is so obvious that the two of you are made for each other."

"Guys are hopeless." I answer, with a little laugh. "All of us, completely and utterly hopeless."

"Yes, me and Jo are hopeless too." I laugh slightly. "But guys as a gender are also hopeless. We all know what to do in situations others are in, but in our own situations we have no clue."

"Nope, no worries. Like the Disney film. Means no worries for the rest of your days and all that." I chuckle. "I remember Disney films. Had to watch them over and over with all the little kiddies in the orphanage. Ever heard of Disney?" I ask, not sure if she was aware of the muggle thing.

"Oh, I always liked the Lion King. You know, the father-son bond thing. Struck a chord I guess. And of course, the unforgettable Hakuna Mattata song, is in that movie. But yeah, Mulan's pretty high up on my list of best Disneys. Associate it with my sister, it was her all time favourite when we were kids." I smile.
