Ariana: the Forgotten Dumbledore

by TheTaleOfTheScribbler

Ariana is the youngest child in the Dumbledore family. Everyone thinks she died, but what if she didn't? There is definitely more to the story than we think, and she will explain some of it to us. Ariana's story is about a love triangle, close friendship, and a narrow escape. "Aberforth," I say to him. "I'm alive, and there is more to the story than you think."

2. That Night

"Alohamora! Alohamora! Alohamora!" I don't understand why this isn't working. It's a simple spell . I got my first practice wand in the mail today. Usually, a pureblood wizard starts learning bits and pieces of magic from home even before they attend Hogwarts.

The grass squishes between my feet. It rained yesterday and the mud squeezes between my bare toes as I practice every single spell in my brothers spell book. He is attending Hogwarts soon, so he got extra spell books to be ready for the upcoming year. "Hey look! It's crazy Ari trying to be a witch. She's got the looks, but not the talent," a girl calls from across the street. The two other girls following her laugh. They slowly prance across the street, trying to get a better look. Opening the latch on my gate, they walk into my backyard.

"Hey, leave her alone!" shouts my best friend, Harriet. Hattie is a half-blood witch, who is going to be attending her first year of Hogwarts next year, with my brother. Even though I'm six, but will be seven in three days, we get along really well. The three girls grab my wand, snap it like it's a twig, and poke me with it. "Hey! I warned you," shouts Hattie. "Confundo!" The girls look around as if they are confused and have no idea where they are and why they are in Ariana's backyard. They run away, unsure if they did something that they would not like getting caught doing. The whole world seems to spin and I fall backwards. Two minutes later I wake up in Hattie's bedroom with a wet cloth on my head. "Thank you Hattie," I say as I sit up and give her a hug. "Ari, seriously, there is no need to thank me. I won't get in trouble because I used my mother's wand so they will think she cast the charm." I give her another hug. " I will miss you when you go to Hogwarts next year. You are like the big sister I never had. Of course, every girl with a brother of any sort wish they had a sister." This time, Hattie gives me a hug. "And you are the little sister I never had."

When Hattie and I walk into the house, my mum greets me with hugs and kisses. "Did you have a good day sweetheart?" she asks me and I nod. " I should really get going," Hattie says. I give her a quick hug, and she leaves the house. "Calling all Dumbledore's!" My mother shouts. "Dinner time!" My father and my brothers runs downstairs to eat. Once everyone is seated and we have all served ourselves, my father speaks. "How was your day, punkin?" I blush slightly. " I was practicing magic-" My mother opens her mouth to speak, but my father spoke first. "YOU DID WHAT!" I speak quieter this time. "I wanted to be like Papa(my Papa is very talented at magic), so I practiced, and some girls saw me. Short story, I fainted and Hattie Confunded them." A second after I said that I realized I shouldn't have said that. My father stands up and walks out of the house.

The next time I saw him was in Azkaban.
