Ginny Weasley, was humming as she put the finishing touches on her outfit. She wore simple blue jeans and a baby blue silk shirt with no sleeves.
She was going to meet her three best friends Harry, Ron, and Hermione at noon. They were going to shop for their school supplies in Diagon Alley.
She had missed them so much this summer and was really looking forward to seeing them again (and to spend two weeks at the Grangers.)
"Ginny, can you come down please?" Her mother shouted up.
"Coming! One Second!" She called back.
She quickly finished brushing her teeth and made her way to the kitchen. She stopped dead when she saw, on her mothers left, Ginny's father, who was joking with none other than the potions professor, Severus Snape, her least favorite teacher.
But this was not the scariest part no; the scariest part was...Snape was actually laughing at something her dad had said.
"But dad tells the worst jokes ever! This is soo wrong!" Ginny thought to herself.
"Ginny!" The three shouted at the same time, causing Ginny to jump.
"Uh...hi." she said.
"Um...I don't mean to be rude but, Professor what are you doing here?" Ginny asked him.
"Ah, Ginny my dear." Snape said slightly mimicking her headmaster's cheery voice.
Since when does he call me, dear?
Her thoughts disrupted when he started speaking again.
"Ginny, I have come to talk to you about your future- he sighed- let's start at the beginning shall we?"
The young witch only nodded as her professor motioned for her to take a seat.
"Now can you tell me what this is?"
Severus passed her a very, very thick book, dark green leather with a large symbol on the cover- all eyes were on her but she didn't mind it was just like being in class.
After raking her brains for like a miller-second, Ginny smiled and nodded
"Pray tell."
"This is the book of shadows, unlimited information about any creature the charmed ones have faced. And this It's the symbol of the charmed ones; it represents a bond, unity -if you will- between sisters and magic."
"And you know who the charmed ones were?" Snape asked the girl
"The Charmed ones were the protectors of the muggle and magical world, descendants of Merlin, there has been a charmed one since the beginning of time, every generation there has been a descendent from the Halliwell line, the chosen ones are marked with this very symbol." Ginny finished and refilled her lungs while her parents looked at Snape.
Who was mumbling, something like- I didn't count on her knowing that much. – Does she know?"
Ginny's parents nodded.
"Do I know what?"
"I was wondering if you knew you were adopted but, as you do this will be much simpler."
"There is something you must know." Snape reached to Ginny and pulled up the only bit of sleeve her shirt had, he flicked his wand and there it was.
"Ginny you've been marked."
"W-what no I can't...that would mean I'm..."
"Ginny, you're real name is Ginny Paige Halliwell, daughter of Phoebe Alyssa Halliwell."
"You were named Ginny as in Ginny- Paige because of your mothers sister who gave her life for yours and Halliwell as in Charmed." Snape smiled at her a smile she did not return.
"I-I don't understand!" Ginny stuttered again
"Ginny, your mother sensed you were in great danger there was a war, not unlike the one that just passed. Piper, Phoebe and Paige the charmed ones were the only ones to fight, for they were the only ones with the power to defeat the source-
A kidnap attempt on you was made one that you survived because Paige gave her life. That's when your mother realized that if you stayed you'd be killed.
She asked me to charm you and put you in a muggle orphanage-
"Why you? What charm?" Ginny cut in
"Me because 1º I am your godfather and 2º my wife was the one who gave her life for you, and the charm was a simple identity charm, I changed your hair, your eyes etc."
"Will you take the charm off?" Ginny asked her godfather
"Are you sure?"
"Yes."
"Very well then."
Snape waved his wand again muttering a charm under his breath. There was a bright light; Ginny herd gasps from her pare- the Weasley's.
She saw Snape smile at her. (This probably scared her.) She ran to the mirror and heard herself gasp, her hair was no longer straight and Red, she was a blonde her heir was a golden hunny color.
Her eyes weren't chocolate brown but a light hazel; she was two inches taller. She had really filled out.
Ginny walked back to the kitchen and hugged Snape then thanked him; the only thing he could say was,
"Just like her mother."
"They died, didn't they?" The young witch looked at her professor. "They did."
Dear Diary,
Well I've had the strangest day of my life; first professor Snape comes and tells me I'm the next Charmed one.
No longer just a blood traitor, I'm the purest of the pure bloods. And if I didn't think that blood didn't matter I would tell the world.
But I'm not a Malfoy thank god! I'm purer and richer than they are.
Then he tells me he's my godfather (talk about irony.)
Not to mention the fact that I only have one living relative, my grandfather but Snape wont tell me who it is.
We're off to see him now! That's right I'm in Snape's car freaky. He's actually nice! Wait till I tell Harry, Ron and Hermione
Anyway, turns out I get to keep the book of shadows. It's become my new favorite book it's incredible and the last pages were written by my mother and her sisters to me, I haven't read it yet I'm saving it.
Snape says I own a lot of their things now, seeing as how I'm the only Halliwell left I own four vaults at gringotts not counting my own and a small amount of gold that Snape and Piper gave to me before I was born. Meaning I have six vaults keys. (I don't think I'll tell Ron.)
I own their manor where Snape-Severus is currently living in San Francisco. Normally it would have three rooms, two bathrooms a living room, dining room kitchen attic and basement.
But he says he extended it now it has seven rooms, two living rooms, four bath rooms, two dining rooms, two kitchens an attic and a basement, don't forget the library and potions lab.
I told him I wouldn't kick him out. He laughed and then he asked me to go live with him, of course, I said yes! And he warned me, first not to be so cheery then that he had been living with his fiancée and her son.
Imagine Snape with a fiancée!
Oh...I can't forget I own Pipers club "P3" and Paige's school! Magic school!
I own a school with 3 library's combined. Not forgetting the 3 other library's with only muggle books.
I'll have to finish this later, we're here time to meet my grandfather.
Ginny's grandfather's house-manor was beautiful, it was bright and lively. She could tell whoever lived there was like her, intelligent, neat etc.
Snape knocked on the door, which was answered by a house elf. Ginny was about to complain but then she noticed the elf was wearing cloths.
"Hello?" the elves said in a squeaky voice
"Tilley, please inform your master he has a visitor."
"I am sorry master is working, wishing not to be disturbed."
"Tell him I brought his granddaughter!"
Tilley's eyes grew extremely wide. She bowed to Ginny and left, and then another house elf arrived and escorted them to a sitting room.
After a few minutes Tilley returned with a butterbeer for Ginny and a firewhiskey for Snape.
Finally an old man walked down the stairs in midnight blue robes, his face too far away for Ginny to see but, as he got closer Ginny noticed something familiar about him. His blue eyes held something there was no word for, so she called it a...twinkle.
She gasped and dropped her drink. Luckily Tilley caught it just in time. The man smiled at her. He knew she knew who he was, because she did.
"Professor Dumbledore!" Ginny practically yelled of course she didn't here his answer because she fell to the floor, (she fainted) the very second she said his name.
