I do not own THis series. Hope you enjoy!
"- Qui vocat lumina." I flicked my wand a second later dazzling lights came into sight flying around me, gently caressing my hair and face dancing along the wind. I hummed softly as I watched the lights dancing in the dark of the room.
Hermione sighed stepping through the stacks of books that lined the walls of the Hogwarts library.
It was late and the library would be closing in a bit, Hermione froze noticing a dozen or so lights fluttering in the corner of a bunch of books. One a little golden one slips out into her field of vision, Hermione blinked watching as it flowed on the wind toward her it hovered in front of her for a moment and lightly brushed against her cheek, the feeling sent a shock through her. It circled around her, brushing through her hair and coming back into her field of vision. Soft singing drew Hermione's attention and being unable to keep her eyes off of the light, she followed curiosity getting the best of her.
"- if happy little bluebirds fly beyond the rainbow. Ooh why, why can't I." Her voice was beautiful, the girl Hermione noticed stared out the window back to Hermione.
Her voice was beautiful, multiple lights danced around her, some fluttering like butterflies others seeming to flow like waves on the air. Two or three ventured swirling around Hermione as she listened to the girl sing. The song was familiar but Hermione couldn't place it.
"Somewhere over the rainbow way up high. There's a land that I heard of once in a lullaby. Somewhere over the rainbow skies are blue and the dreams that you dare to dream really do come true.
Someday I'll wish upon a star and wake up where the clouds are far
Behind me Where troubles melt like lemon drops Away above the chimney tops. That's where you'll find me.
Somewhere over the rainbow bluebirds fly, Birds fly over the rainbow. Why then, oh, why can't I?
If happy little bluebirds fly. Beyond the rainbow why, oh, why can't I?" Turning around again following a golden light that had flown across my vision I nearly choked on the words when I noticed my crush standing there. Her eyes focused on me, she jumps meeting my gaze tripping over her words.
"I- I'm so sorry, I didn't mean to overhear. I mean I heard you singing, and your- lights drew my attention. You have a beautiful voice." She shifted from foot to foot anxious for my reply.
"It's okay. Im sorry if I disturbed your reading. Usually I'm the only one up here this late."
"You didn't, I was just in my way out. What was that song from? I heard it before."
"Wizard of Oz- Somewhere over the Rainbow." I couldn't keep my eyes off of her.
"I haven't seen you here before. What house are you in?" I hesitated but ended up letting my robe open to show my house color.
"Slytherin." I stated, she swallowed thickly.
"I may be 'pureblood' Hermione but I don't hold the same ideals as my parents." She seemed to relax.
"What's your name? I'm Hermione Granger." She held out a hand.
"Ziva... Rose." I replied taking her hand.
"Rose? Like the inventor?"
"Sort of, he was my great Uncle."
"Miss. Granger! Miss. Rose you two should be on your way back to your dorms at this hour. Go on." Madam Price says.
"Busted." I smiled at her as Mrs. Price ushers us out of the knook of shelves.
"Your two of the hardest students to kick out of my library honesty. If it's not one it's the other." She was saying, one of the lights a violet one fluttered around her landing on her hair.
"Your lights are extraordinary. Is this a spell?" Hermione asked transfixed on them as they followed us out.
"Sort of, it's a summoning spell but the lights have a mind of their own." One came to rest on my hand.
"That's incredible. What's it doing?" She noticed it begin to glow brighter.
"It's harvesting my energy." Her face paled.
"Don't worry, I'm letting it. These guys survive on our energy, but they are by no means a parasite. They usually roam around intensely energized areas feeding on some of the excess energy the students unknowingly give off. It's tapping into the very energy that flows inside, it opens the pathways that allow our magic to flow more seamlessly through us. The muggles call this the Chakra system. Seven major points on the physical body but there are twelve altogether."
"You know about muggles?" She seemed surprised. I shrugged;
"Yeah, mom and dad don't know but I leave diagon alley all the time wondering the muggle streets." We stopped since we needed to go different directions.
"I ended up visiting a Muggle Library and spent the day there. I even got onto what are those things called." I paused trying to remember.
"They look like the pictures and have this thing with a long tail it's on the tip of my tongue!" Hermione smiled.
"A computer?"
"Yes! A computer! Those things are amazing!" I couldn't help smile.
"I don't know much about it, how it works on the inside but I ended up what's it called... Googling? I'm trying to continue researching. I know there's a way to combine our magic with theirs."
"You have to explain this to me. Muggles have magic?" Hermione looked shocked.
"You didn't know?"
"Meet me tomorrow morning and we'll tally about this more. I'm really interested, that is if you don't mind."
"I don't mind at all, it would be great to talk about this with someone other than myself." She laughs.
"Okay, see you tomorrow!" She waves and heads off a couple of the lights flowing after her.
Slytherin Common room
"Hey Ziva just getting in?" My gaze flickered up to meet Draco's.
"Yeah, late night in the library."
"Still studying muggle traditions? I don't know the fascination you have with such filth. You shouldn't be wasting your time with such things." Draco states heightly.
"It's not a waste Draco, you don't understand so keep your nose out of my business." I grumble he straightened up, his gray eyes hardening.
"Have you forgotten our parents have already set a date for our marriage. You best start paying me respect." He hissed, my gaze turned to him and everyone in the room froze no one wanted to get into this mess.
"Draco can I talk to you in private." Draco stepped back indicating for me to let the way. Once behind closed doors I turned my eyes to him.
"Listen Draco and Listen good. We may be betrothed but you will not dictate what I do or how I choose to spend my time or who I choose to spend my time with. If you talk like that to me again in front of other people so help me I will speak a lot worse."
"Do you know what will happen if your parents find out about your activities in the muggle world?"
"Be careful who you threaten Draco. I know you don't want this marriage as much as I do and don't get things twisted I know exactly what buttons to push." He turned red.
"I may not want to enjoy the spoils of being head of our class but that does not mean I don't know how to make people fall into line. I don't like being like this, I'd much rather spend time with Vex or read a book."
"If you don't get into my business I won't get into yours." He offered steel eyes momentarily betraying his downfall.
"Deal." After that I went to bed, I didn't like doing that, reminding them not to mess with me. Rose is one of the most powerful families; the 'light' to the Black families 'dark.'
Interesting start? I'm unsure, comments, questions and all are much appreciated!
