Unpacking her belongings, Tanya looked around her dorm with hesitation. She could feel the veela inside of her wanting to be released, and she contemplated how much longer she could contain her secret.

"I guess I won't be seeing any of Fleur or Gabriella this year," Tanya said as she began to put her clothes away.

"How does it feel to have a Weasley as a cousin-in-law?" Cho asked giggling.

"Doesn't bother me any," Tanya simply stated.

She watched as Cho kissed the tip of her fingers and place them on the lips of a picture of Cedric Diggory. A deep sorrow grew inside her.

"You miss him so much, don't you?" Tanya questioned as Cho nodded. Slowly walking over to her friend, Tanya gave Cho a compassionate embrace. "I understand. It's okay to grieve."

"I know. I…." Cho stopped in her sentence as she wiped her tears away.

"It's okay. This year is going to be unforgettable and one of the best!" Tanya exclaimed. "Let's unpack later and find something to do!" She said taking her friends hand and guiding her out the door.


Tanya strolled down the corridors with confidence. The men greeted her by name and she simply nodded in acknowledgment. Cho gave her a wondrous look but continued to walk beside her.

"What classes do you have?" Cho asked trying to distract herself from the attention.

"Potions. History of Hogwarts. Transfiguration…" Tanya said trying to remember her schedule. "Oh. I can't remember all of them. What about you?"

"I think we have the same schedule," she chuckled but grew quiet as Harry Potter walked beside her in the corridor. "Harry," Cho whispered.

"Good afternoon Cho," he greeted. "And Ms. Delacour," He said as he stuck out his hand.

"It's nice to see you this year, Harry," Tanya smiled as she grabbed Harry's hand. "I'll leave you two alone and let you catch up," Tanya replied as she caught the vibe of the pair.

Walking solo, Tanya made her way into the Great Hall. The tables were lined with food and drinks of all sorts but she was not interested in eating it. She made her way to the Ravenclaw table and adjusted her robe before taking a seat next to Luna Lovegood.

"You should read this article in The Quibbler.My father has written it perfectly," Luna said as she pointed to the magazine she was holding upside down.

"Oh..." Tanya replied trying to sound interested.

"Moon frogs are so fascinating!" Luna said as she skimmed the pages of the magazine.

"I'm sure," Tanya rolled her eyes. "So how is Quidditch this year going to be?" Tanya asked as she pointed her attention to Penelope Clearwater.

"Oh charming! I just hope Cho can keep her head in the game and off Cedric," Penelope said taking a sip of pumpkin juice.


The moon made its appearance into the night sky as she lay restless in her bed. The school year had just begun but Tanya could feel the thirst inside of her. With one song, she could have whoever she wanted under her spell. She could control their minds. She could have their faintness beating heart in her hands. As much as she tried to ignore it, she still had the thoughts inside of her. She could feel the urge raving through her.

Tossing and turning, she grew restless. She could hear the steady sounds of the students breathing. She raged with envy for her body, too, wanted to be in a slumber.
She threw the covers off of her and began to pace around the room.

"Don't do this," She said as she tried to distract her thoughts. "You can fight it!" She talked amongst herself.

Tanya looked into her vanity mirror and could see the formation of a bird-like nose and beady eyes. She could feel her body growing feathers and talons. She was trying to fight it with all of her might. She didn't know how long she could contain herself.

"I can't transform!" She whispered as she watched the features fade and her crystal blue eyes make its appearance once again.

Lying back down, Tanya shut her eyes tightly and tried to sleep. If she didn't, she knew the trouble that would be ahead.


Authors Note: I appreciate anyone who has been reading my story. I hope it isn't too confusing for ya. Please review! If there are any suggestions, they are greatly appreciated. I'm trying to make this story as closely to my role-play on opendiary as possible but turning it into a actual story seems more challenging than I originally had planned. Haha.
