Hello all, new story. Time Wolf is currently being rewritten with the help of WhenNightmaresWalked, thankyou. Anyway, ive had this idea floating in my head for a while, i only had the ending but not the start, so i hope this goes ok. Please review, it's the only thing that lets me know that you care and it gives me strength to keep writing, so enjoy :D
My mouth was hanging open.
Not very lady like I know, but I feel this action was appropriate for the bombshell my father had just dropped. I'm probably over reacting to the situation, but I think I'm allowed to given the context.
After two years of attending Beauxbatons Academy of Magic in France, I was transferring to where my father taught.
Hogwarts school of witchcraft and wizardry.
Because of a promise.
Not some unbreakable vow or anything stupid like that. No, my father was smarter than that.
It was a promise he had made to himself, to a friend, to a lover.
Dad sent me to Beauxbatons, because people would've seen, they would've talked and stared. I don't like people staring. But people didn't stare because to them I was Ms. Ardonelle and I liked it that way. When people find out who I am, I'm no longer who I am; I'm no longer a tall, slim young lady, with black hair and green eyes. I turned into a complete stranger.
But because of this, they would stare and talk. Some point as well.
I had the eyes of my mother, but the cold stare of my father. Her lips, his sneer. So people would recognise at a glance and then the whispers would start.
My father sent me to Beauxbatons to because I had no mother figure in my life. I was to become a lady, and that's what I did. I walk with my back straight, chin up and, in my teachers words, glided instead of walked.
I also had my parents combined intelligence.
"When do I leave?" I asked.
"The train leaves on the 1st of September." I swear Dad visibly relaxed.
"So I have a month, anything that I need?"
"I have brought anything you didn't have, but most of your original belongings were fine."
I nodded, "Goodnight Dad." I said and left the room.
My name is Elizabeth Snape.
I am the child of Lily and Severus.
