Nymphadora Tonks's childhood.
Chapter 1
'The new Tonks family.'
The second of May 1973 couldn't have come any sooner for the small Tonks family. Andromeda Tonks and her husband were going to have a baby. Their first child.
They had met at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, Andromeda being a Slytherin, a black. The blacks were one the most pure-blooded families ever to live. Ted was in Huffelpuff and a muggle-born. This was a relationship you wouldn't have imagined. Furthermore Andromeda was disowned by her parents and 2 sisters – Bellatrix and narcissi. However it was worth it, Andromeda never felt like a true black and she truly did love her husband and was about to start a family, a real family.
Andromeda had a quick birth, but was astonished to find out her daughter's hair colour was changing every few minutes.
'Ted?' she shouted at who was talking to the medi-nurse.
'Teddy?'
'Oi!'
'Oh sorry sweetie, what's the matter?' he replied, finally realising she was shouting him.
'What's wrong with her? What's happening to her?' she said, half crying, being scared for her daughters' sake.
Ted who was now standing over his wife and daughter gave a worried stare at the medi-nurse.
'Oh, nothing to worry about, she's just a metamorphous.'
'A what?' Dromeda and ted said at the same time with a scared look on their faces. They were sure they heard the name somewhere before, but when? Or why?
'A metamorphous' The Medi-nurse slowly said, 'it means your daughter will be able to change her appearance at will. It's Very unique I must say though. Within her early years it will change allot until she gets the hang of it. I must go now however, there's allot of work to do, if you want to find out more there will be many books on it.' She said, with a reassuring smile and off she went.
Ted was now staring at his new daughter in his wife's arms with bewilderment. A metamorphous, his daughter! Never would he have thought.
'What about Nymphadora?' she whispered to her husband.
'A what?' he asked, wondering if his wife was acting quite normal at this moment.
She glared at her husband and gave a little laugh at him before saying 'Her name of course, we can't just keep calling her it all the time.'
'Oh yeah, it's a little bit... odd? Isn't it?' he told her, staggering at finding the right words to say without insulting her.
'It's unique, like our daughter.' She said as she slowly moved her eyes onto her daughter as she peacefully slept, her hair colour changing from orange to blue.
'Well, Nymphadora it is,' he said after a short pause.'
