Ellie Potter and the Pendant of Konnen
-Chapter one-
Answers from Dobby
Ellie was in her room, trying hard to make herself comfortable on her chair, writing in her journal. It had been a longtime since her last statement but on this day she never forgot to write in it. Today was a special day and no matter how much it sadden her, she had to write because it was a promise that she had made to herself to remember. Today was July 31st , her father's birthday. Every year since she could write, she wrote in her journal...

July 31st
Dear Journal,
today is a special day. Like before, I would like to wish my father a happy Birthday but I know that I won't get any warm smiles or just see his face fill with joy as his never-ending sleep still remains. Later on today like many years before I'll go see him and recite my hopes.
I see you there motionless
My heart fills with bitterness
My hands together, I hope and pray
That soon your endless sleep will cease one day
Until next time
♡ Elizabeth Virginia Potter ♡
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
She had just finished writing in her journal as she re-read the little poem she had made up a longtime ago for him. She closed the book, walked out of her room and proceed towards the library where he was kept. She entered the room quietly, (not that it would make a difference) and placed herself in her usual chair by his side. She took his hand and recited the little poem to him like she did every year for his birthday. The reason why she did this was because, when she about 2 years old her father finally confronted Lord Voldemort...
FlashBack
"Hurry...go on without me, you know that this is my battle, and remember...I love you" Harry said to his wife Virginia Potter and with that he took a step forward to battle against the most powerful Dark Lord of all time. Ginny kept her distance and made sure that she had a good grip on her children, Elizabeth and Liliane.
Suddenly there out of no were, a horrible bombing came from behind the protective mother and her innocent children. She got up took her twins by the hand and leaded them towards the back of the house. Nothing worst in the world could happen at this moment but it did, something even Harry didn't expect. Liliane venture of and by everybody's surprise, Voldemort projected a spell heading her direction. There before his very eyes, Harry saw his daughter's death and sadly her body was never found as well. By this doing, Harry over powered his body, mind, soul and finally burst it all out on the murderer. Blinded for a split second, everyone on the battlefield couldn't see a thing but could feel the immense power coming from the young man. This time, Voldemort had truly departed from this world but unfortunately because of the extreme amount of power use during the battle, Harry had lost part of his life and was left in a coma. His last feelings before coming into this endless sleep were ones of sorrow, love and pain. And from this day, everyone hoped that one day soon, our historical hero would wake up.
This was pretty much the reason why she did this but even though this was difficult for her, there was something even more difficult to her and that was the fact that she had never truly seen her sister. She knew about her death but refused to believe it, somehow she thought that she was still alive somewhere out there. There was only one reason why she believed in this so much and that was because of her disappearance. She thought that a spell can't just make someone disappear instantly without any ashes or bones from her.
There was also another reason to believe that she was still alive and that was her twin intuition, she could sometimes feel her mood and hear her thoughts, kind of twin thing. The only person, else then herself, that knew about this was her journal, she never actually told someone afraid that they might think she's gone hay wires.
"I wish you were here dad" she said in a hushed tone still holding onto his hand but let go of it. She forced a smile and made her way out the door. Watching his emotionless face for the hundred time, lets just that feeling was mutual. "If only there was a way to wake him up" she'd thought of that thought more frequently then others. But lets remember one thing, she is not normal and so is her family, she is after all a witch and the wizarding world is quite different from the muggle world; magic can do anything if you believe in it, you just need the right equipment. She had done many researches to find something but had failed numerous times as well. The only thing that seemed to have captivated her attention was something she had read when she was in Dumbledor's office. Something about a pendant that had immense powers and could be use to revive any form of life, but no one knows the whereabouts of it or if it even exist. The information of the pendant were brought by a wizard in the early eighteen hundreds, named Horis Ferghul. He has told many wizards and witches that he had seen the pendant and had found out its use. Many people from the wizarding world had searched for it but never did find it. They started to believe that Horis had lied about seeing the pendant and everything else about it.
Ellie thought many times herself to go look for it, thinking that this pendant might be the key to wake her father. The other thing that trouble her, well not really trouble more confused her was to why it was called the Pendant of Konnen, she never understood the meaning of "Konnen" nor why this name. But rejected those thoughts and moved on with her life, never expressing her true feelings to anyone, all she did was keeping it all inside.
She walk down the stairs slowly, her head hanging down, still recovering from the previous events. Her mother was standing at the end of staircase and notice her daughter's depressed look and knew exactly what it was.
"Are you sure you're going to be alright, I know its hard but we have to except it". Ellie didn't answer back, she kept her slow pace and past her mother like she wasn't even there. "Oh...Ellie..." sign her mother with a sadden expression and went up stairs.
Ellie kept walking until she reached the kitchen were she met up with Dobby. Dobby had come to live at Godric's Hollow with the Potter's because of obvious reasons. He was now their servant but the Potter's treated him with extreme loyalty and kept their word as to pay him for his hard work.
"Hello Miss, what would you like today" he asked with his usual jolly self and enormous glittery eyes. She was in an other world, she hadn't even realized that he had talked to her. "Um...Miss are you alright?" yet again she didn't answer. "MISS!" Dobby shouted this time and cause her to jump and put her hand on her heart. "Ter..terrib...bly sorry Miss, I didn't mean to startle you...Miss... but you weren't here," that last part confused her but soon understood its meany.
"Oh, Dobby its quite alright, I was just deep in thoughts that's all...so you were saying?" she asked feeling a lot less tense then a moments ago.
"The usual Miss, but Dobby knows what's troubling you. It's about Sir, your father, Dobby knows but will try to make Miss happy," he said concerned but still looked as happy as ever. She grinned at him and sat on one of the chairs from the dinning room table.
"A sandwich would be nice and a butterbeer. Oh and Dobby take a plate for yourself and come sit here and eat with me please,". Dobby smiled a her and nodded. When she was lonely, she'd asked Dobby to sit and eat lunch with her and talk about whatever came to mind. A minutes later Dobby walked in the dinning room with a mini cart that fitted his height. He gently placed her plate in front of her and placed his right next to hers. "Dobby, can I ask you a question? If you don't mind that is," she turn around and asked him with pleading eyes.
"Well certainly Miss, you can ask Dobby whatever you wish" he simply answered. She smile back at him always finding it rather funny that he said his name all the time when he spoke.
"Well you see I was wondering if you knew anything about the Pendant of Konnen?" she said taking a bite of her sandwich and turned her eyes back to Dobby hoping that he would know something. She's being meaning to ask him for the longest time but never got around it.
"Yes, Dobby Sir as heard about it many years ago, when Dobby used to serve the Malfoys. It was night in the Malfor Manor and Dobby was being punished like usual but then Dobby heard the master talking with someone else. Dobby figured that the voice belonged to one of the Dead Eaters or the Lord itself. Dobby peaked in the room and heard master talking the Lord about the Pendant of Konnen. If the Dark Lord ever got his hands on the Pendant, he would of probably return with far greater powers than he already ha....
"You mean to say that Voldemort knew the whereabouts of the Pendant?" she asked interrupting him briskly.
"Oh, no...the Lord did not know its whereabouts, Dobby's only saying that if he did, he might still be alive ...today" he said with disgust.
"Oh..." was all she could say. There was a uncomfortable silence between the two and Ellie quickly thought of something that she might of forgotten to ask and she did.
"Dobby, do you know the meaning of Konnen. I've been wondering for a while, I just thought that you might know something,".
"Well, Dobby only knows that Konnen stands for Power, but Dobby don't know which languages its from, sorry Miss" he said with such honesty. He looked back at his plate and finished the rest of his sandwich. Ellie turned towards her plate and realized that she had already finished hers.
"Don't be sorry Dobby, I'm quite glad actually that we talked, you've helped me a lot, thank you," and with that she got up, picked up her plate and butterbeer mug. She quickly turn around facing Dobby.
"Don't worry Dobby, I'll take my stuff into the kitchen, you just stay here and take a little break," she said knowing that he was going to tell her that she didn't need to clean up after herself. She saw Dobby gave her a warm smile as she did the same and finally when out the dinning room. Dobby had indeed succeeded, he had told her that he would try to make her happy and he did. While going to the kitchen, she kept on saying to herself "Konnen" but it didn't do much. But she did speak the truth, Dobby had indeed helped her a lot, she knew that the only person who knew the meaning of Konnen would be the Malfoys, well there was someone else but didn't bother asking him. We already know who that is, ah yes...Dumbledor.
That day had flew by and so did the proceeding weeks and soon she found herself back to square one,
the Hogwarts Express. Ellie was now entering her 5 year at Hogwarts and was kind of relieved to go back to school and see how much her friends changed over the summer. She knew one person who had changed and that was her. She use to be so petite but know you could say that she had blossomed into a beautiful young woman. Her hair had gotten longer but the auburn color was still as ravishing, her big green emerald eyes were as always very noticeable with her long black eye lashes. Ellie was considered a very beautiful girl and it didn't take a boy to realize that.
"Now you listen to me carefully Elizabeth, I do not, I repeat I do not want to get a single letter from your teachers saying that you've been up to no good. I know your uncles been teaching you some nasty tricks, but that doesn't mean you have to do that at school," said her mother firmly.
"I'm not 6 years old you know, and don't worry I won't do anything foolish, come on I'm 15 years old I think that playing little pranks on people is a little babyish don't you think?" she ask rather sarcastically.
"Well the age part didn't seem to matter to my brothers but anyway you seemed to be true to your words" she said embracing her tightly and finally letting her go. "Bye dear and write to me to let me know if your coming over the holidays,". Ellie waved back to her mother and quickly climbed aboard the train.
