DISCLAIMER:
I own the Rights to my imagination even if I own nothing else on this page; I suppose.
The ideas are all mine but:
The characters of the Discworld all belong to the talented Mr. T. Pratchett and no matter how many fan fictions I write about them they will never be mine.
Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, including all of its residents, belongs to Mrs. J. K. Rowling.
This fan fiction is basically a hypothetical version of what could of happened if DEATH had sent Susan Sto-Helit into J. K. Rowling's world of Harry Potter.
The Bones' would probably have been the family Death would have picked for Susan and she fits in nicely even if it is set in the years just after Harry Potter has survived the killing curse and before he goes to Hogwarts.
Tell me if you think I should have just created a new family for Susan.
Please review.
Susan's New LifePart One: The Fresh Beginning
Susan Sto-Helit was expected to go to Quirm College for Young ladies; but then, her parents had died and she was left an orphan or so she thought.
When she found out who her Grandfather was she nearly wished she was an orphan. Theoretically he was also dead meaning she was an orphan but Susan knew that logically he was still her grandfather and so did not dwell on that 'ever so happy' thought.
Then her Grandfather decided that she would be much safer somewhere else. Somewhere were no-one would know who she was. She could grow up normally and be happy like her parents had wanted and he would also get her an education. So he took her to other worlds.
It brought back old memories but he did not dwell on them.
He had a job; A Duty, and he was going to see to it that his grand-daughter got the best damn education he could find.
He had to travel to many different worlds with her;
until he found Earth;
and on Earth he found Hogwarts;
and Death being Death got her enrolled at the school immediately.
This was wrong he thought for the millionth time later on, "TO CHANGE THE FATE OF ONE INDIVIDUAL WAS TO CHANGE THE FATE OF THE WORLD." he had said that often enough. He knew he had done it before for her parents and he was fairly sure it would be for the best for her.
After all she was young, nearly 8, very unlucky number, and she would settle in once he found a suitable new family.
So he hunted again.
He found the Bones' ironically and they had always wanted a baby girl;
So Death gave them his granddaughter; and after he explained that is work was not suitable for a child that small to be emerged in and of course he briefly warned them about her traits.
As in telling them she was a very gifted and remarkably quick thinking, quiet child
He told them he would keep in contact via his personal Raven. They thought they had misheard him but Susan was soon receiving letters weekly from a raven, called Quoth, and after a while when he came knocking on the window it was already open waiting for him.
Susan was a quiet and thoughtful child and the Bones' loved her very much. They knew she was different and she would inherit her parents estate when she was 21 but they also knew that it didn't matter at the moment.
Susan knew that she was adopted and both of her birth parents had died in a car accident on a cliff because the Bones' told her what her grandfather had told them later on. She got nearly the full story because her grandfather had told them nearly every thing- that he had adopted her mother and he took on Susan's father as an apprentice they fell in love ect... He really only left out the part about him actually being DEATH "the reaper of souls" instead leaving them with the impression that he was an embalmer and funeral director which was close enough if you thought about it.
One thing bothered them though; she would be going to Hogwarts soon and they thought to themselves I wonder if they left her any money to inherit apart from some land?!
Death was wondering nearly the same thing. Point was, he knew the answer too and how he could solve that problem. Which gave him a new problem. His new problem was that he didn't like the first solution which meant that he had an even bigger problem;
Susan's real parents had of course left her very, very, wealthy, In the form of a kingdom but it was not going to do her much good whilst she was living on Earth, when her kingdom were she was considered Sto-Helit's youngest Duchess in a century was over three hundred billion light years away on the Discworld.
So Death had to resort to telling the Queen of Sto Lat what had happened. Queen Keli then gave him half of the money Susan was going to inherit leaving enough to see that the kingdom of Sto-Helit would continue to prosper through the 11 years Susan would be gone. She had been watching Sto Helit anyway because Susan was so young now she would just have to continue to do so until she returned.
''That's what life plans,'' she thought to herself as Death left on his horse, then she amended, ''No, actually this is what Death planned!''
To be continued...
