A/N: So I needed to get this out here because I wanted to have something out before the weekend 'cause I might be away for it, so yeah. I didn't want another month-long wait, ya know? Enjoy!

Chapter 6

Calypso bit her lip as she sat impatiently in Professor Quirrell's classroom. She was in DADA, her increasingly least favorite class, and had to endure Quirrell drone about useless stuff while bearing the knowledge of his betrayal.

She wanted to claw her ears out.

Unfortunately, there wasn't much she could do, not even speak with Dumbledore now that he knew she knew she was a daughter of an infamous dark witch. He would never listen to her now.

Quirrell finally let them go and she rushed out the door as fast as possible before realizing her mistake and slowing down to a more Pureblood stance as she calmly continued. Daphne caught up to her and Calypso smiled at her. It was nice to have a friend that wasn't always on her nerves with their pureblood views. Daphne obviously, having grown up with them, believed in them, but Calypso could see that she had some doubts. Daphne was a nice girl, polite and reserved, and while she agreed with the views on Muggles and Muggleborns, she had doubts and never used the M-word. Calypso suspected part of her reservation was because she was her friend, or as close as purebloods came in that sense, and appreciated it.

"Where to next, Cal?" Daphne asked in her soft voice.

"I think we have potions with Gryffindors, but we have a free period first. I'm thinking of doing my homework in the library in the time, or just reading there. How about you?" Calypso questioned.

Daphne hummed. "Not sure. I think I'll do the same as you, considering I have no plans. Come on, I need to work on my Charms essay."

Calypso raised an eyebrow, following after her friend, "You haven't done it yet? It's due tomorrow."

"There's a reason I wasn't put into Hufflepuff or Ravenclaw, Cal. I'm not hardworking, and I'm not that invested in my studies."

Calypso laughed, and the two friends headed towards the library for their studying session. Soon enough, it was time for potions and the two girls were running late. Literally. They were sprinting to class, despite their normal Slytherin composure.

Potions class went on as per usual, and soon enough the day was over and the two girls were laughing and talking with one another during dinner, oblivious to the worries being faced over with the Golden Trio.


Christmas was coming.

Calypso was so excited to see her family over break, and to finally be able to claim her Ladyship, it was unreal.

Once the sign up sheet came around to go home for Christmas, she signed up as quick as can be, despite the glares she was getting from her housemates. Theodore Nott was smirking and was happy as well, believing that she was going to be found out for fraud soon from the Gringotts heritage test, and he couldn't wait. Everybody else though, was just angry that a Muggle-raised witch was going to claim a well-known Ladyship.

Calypso skipped around school, much to the amusement to her friends, both Slytherin and Gryffindor, and when the time came to leave for break, kissed everybody on the cheek as farewell.

Ron's face was as red as his hair.

Calypso giggled at their expressions and waved goodbye, entering the train with Hermione and Daphne who both looked uncomfortable with their company. She chatted for about fifteen minutes before sighing irritably, "Alright you two, either get used to the fact that I'm friends with both of you or get out. I'm tired of the two of you looking like the other sprouted wings. For god's sakes, we're all human, we're all witches, we're all magic. Give it up already!"

The two girls stared stunned at their friend before Hermione smiled at Daphne weakly, muttering, "Sorry."

Daphne gave her a searching look before nodding and replying, much louder, "I apologize as well."

Calypso dissolved into giggles at Daphne's formal response compared to Hermione's one-word answer, before the three of them chatted with each other happily for the rest of the ride, forgetting prejudices momentarily and just being three eleven-year-old girls. Which is what they are. Give it up Purebloods!


Calypso exited the train swiftly, barely muttering a goodbye to her friends as she flew down the steps and through the barrier between platforms nine and ten, running towards her parent's recognizable car and flying into her mother's arms, despite the woman hating hugs like that in public.

"Dear, get down. You're attracting attention." she said, before giving in and embracing her daughter.

Calypso smiled brightly as she entered the car, kissing her sister on the forehead and smothering her.

"Stop, sissy! Stop!" Olivia said, pushing her sister away despite the giggles she was letting out. "Stop!"

Calypso smiled and sat back down, chatting with her parents about the stuff that happened, leaving some of it out, of course, lest they not let her go back due to danger.

"-and then Ron fell flat on his face from his broom, right into the snow! When he looked up there were little snowy crystals on his face and Hermione and I laughed so hard my stomach hurt."

"That's nice, dear. Oh, look, we're home. You'll have to tell us the rest in the house." her mother smiled and said.

For the next two days, the house was frantic as they were preparing their usual christmas party. They had it on Christmas Eve, and on Christmas Day the Lovelace family went to Calypso's grandparents to celebrate and open gifts. For New Years they had an even bigger holiday, and it usually last until the early hours of the morning. Calypso had fun, but as she had no real friends being surrounded by adults and her stuffy cousins was very boring, so she usually stayed up in her room after a couple hours.

Calypso was planning on claiming her Ladyship in the short time between the New Year and Christmas, and get the affairs in order in that time as well. She was assuming she had a bunch of money, considering the Shafiq family line had not exactly been doing much because of her mother. She was hoping her family didn't have too many problems or rivalries. Most of the books on her ancestry were written after Cassandra's betrayal, so she had no idea anything other than what her mother had done.

Calypso was hoping the rest of the family wasn't like that.


It was Christmas Eve, and Calypso was wandering around the party, smiling at some of her cousins, who just scoffed and turned around. Everybody here was so rude, and Calypso wanted out.

She was halfway up sneaking to her room when her mother called up the stairs at her, "There you are! I've been looking for you everywhere. Could you maybe sing us all a Christmas song, dear? Your voice is so lovely and everybody needs something more real instead of just a music player."

Calypso sighed irritably before turning around to face her mother with a big smile on her face, "Of course mother. I would be delighted."

She walked down the stairs delicately, taking her white gloves off as she reached the floor. She was wearing a beautiful red dress that went down to her knees, and short black heels. Her dress had some dark green parts of it, and her white lace gloves reached up to her elbows. The dress flared out near the bottom and there were some beads around the neckline. She loved the dress, even though she knew she should probably be wearing green for her house.

She walked up to the stage that was in the hall, and sat at the piano. She held her hands above the keys for a moment, before her fingers started flying across them. After a moment, she let her voice ring across the room, so everybody could hear it:

Oh, the weather outside is frightful

But the fire is so delightful

And since we've no place to go

Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow

Man it doesn't show signs of stoppin'

And I brought me some corn for poppin'

The lights are turned way down low

Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow

When we finally kiss good-night

How I'll hate going out in the storm

But if you really hold me tight

All the way home I'll be warm

And the fire is slowly dying

And, my dear, we're still good-bye-ing

But as long as you love me so

Let it snow, let it snow, and snow

When we finally kiss good-night

How I'll hate going out in the storm

But if you really grab me tight

All the way home I'll be warm

Oh the fire is slowly dying

And, my dear, we're still good-bye-ing

But as long as you love me so

Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow

She stopped, the silence of the room hanging over all the party guests, before a low clapping started, and after a moment, the entire hall was roaring with applause. Calypso swore she could hear somebody whistling in the back.

Calypso stood and quickly left the stage. As much as she loved singing, she hated large crowds. Her mother did this every year, always having her sing or play for the crowd, and she was getting tired of it.

Once she reached the floor she smiled at everybody as she ran up the stairs to her room, collapsing on the bed with a groan. She heard a giggle and turned to find her 3-year-old sister smiling at her from the doorway. Calypso got up and played with her for the rest of the party, until Olivia started yawning and she had to be put to bed. Once she finally got the kid into her bed and tucked in for the night, she changed into her pajamas and fell asleep the moment she got into her bed.


"Sissy sissy wake up! We have to go to granny's!"

Calypso groaned into her pillow before getting up, shooing her sister out of the room, and changing into an Ugly christmas sweater and jeans. She ran downstairs and to the car, where the rest of her family was waiting for her. She smiled at them and jumped into the car.

"Now, darling, you need to keep in mind that you grandparents don't know about your new schooling. It should be kept that way. The Wizarding World is a secret, from what I've gathered, and even though they are family, it must be kept from them."

Calypso sighed and nodded. This was going to be a hard secret to keep.


Calypso yawned as she climbed out of the car. It was fun seeing her grandparents again, but they were kind of overwhelming. They spoiled her and her sister a lot, and that was kind of annoying. As if they didn't already have access to practically whatever they wanted.

She was planning on going to Gringotts the day following. The next morning when she got up, she asked her parents if she could go alone.

They said no, but she could work around that.

Sort of.

She managed to get her father to come with her, and pulled him along with her to Diagon Alley. Once they were in, she made a point of shopping with her father, before asking him if she could stay for a few hours while he does… whatever it is adults do, I don't know. He said yes, thank Merlin, and she ran to Gringotts as fast as possible.

She walked up to one of the Goblin tellers and asked, "How much would a lineage test cost?"

He looked at her, and she was terrified. She had nothing against Goblins, but they were kind of… creepy. "It would cost 50 galleons to even enter the office, and depending on what you buy in there it could double."

She winced, but paid the required amount anyway and followed the goblin around back to a door, as that is how you typically enter rooms, and they weren't gonna do this in the hallway. Duh.

Anyway, he knocked on the door, and a gruff voice called "Come in." Calypso entered the room, nervous.

She sat down at the seat facing the desk, feigning calmness, and said, "I have come to take a blood test."

The goblin raised a brow, "I would hope so, considering that is my job here."

Calypso snorted, but continued, "I need to take it to figure out whether or not my mother was actually Cassandra Shafiq, as that is what I have been lead to believe. Also to win a bet, but that has nothing to do with this."

The goblin took a sharp intake of breath at Cassandra's name, but continued in a monotone voice, "Family Tree Lineage test, or the test where you find out all your information that the narrator couldn't bother coming up with a name for."

Calypso answered, ignoring the break of the fourth wall, "Um, both? How much would that cost?"

The goblin said, "They each cost two hundred," Calypso groaned, "but if you take both of them you get a deal of 300 galleons."

Calypso sighed, but paid anyways. "K, now what? My dad's gonna be getting impatient."

He took out two sheets of paper, and said, "Drop one drop of blood on this one, and depending on how far back you want the tree to go, place whatever amount on that one." He said, pointing to the respective sheets of paper as he spoke.

Calypso nodded and accepted the dagger he held out to her. Without stopping to reconsider, she poked her thumb and let a drop of blood fall on the first paper, and five on the second. She watched in amazement as the blood spread across both the parchments and morph into ink. The ink spread across both papers, forming words that confirmed everything Calypso knew. She could see the goblin's eyes widen at what he saw, but she just studied the papers. She was surprised as well, but maintained a straight face as she sucked the cut on her thumb:

Calypso cleared her throat and looked up at the goblin, "Um, well, that's surprising."

He stared at her, wide-eyed, before responding, "I'm assuming you need something other than a blood test, Princess of the Sea?"

Calypso blinked at the title but smiled, "Um, yes actually, I have a letter from my grandmother giving me permission to claim Ladyship of the Shafiq household. Does that mean I can claim my other titles too or…?"

"Yes, as long as you have a signed note from her."

Calypso nodded and took out her letter which she had been carrying around for a while with her. She didn't want anybody finding it.

She handed the note to the goblin, who read it quickly before nodding and handing it back. She tucked it into her pocket as the goblin said, "In order for you to claim Ladyship, you need to take this note," he reached into his desk and pulled out a paper written in goblish, "And hand it to the goblin in the room two doors to the right across the hall. He manages the Ladyships. He'll have the rings."

Calypso nodded and took the note and her test papers, exiting the room before pausing at the doorway and turning around, "What's your name, sir?"

He blinked surprisedly, but answered, "Ragnast."

Calypso smiled at him, "Farewell, Ragnast."

He nodded, and she exited the room, turning to the right and entering the room she was instructed to go to. Calypso knocked and heard an irritated voice say, "Enter!"

She walked into the room tentatively and sat in front of the desk, sliding her chair in and placing the card on the table. "Um, I'm here to claim the-" She checked her Heiress sheet, "-Merlin, Slytherin, Gryffindor, Hufflepuff, Ravenclaw, and Shafiq Ladyships."

The goblin looked up, dropping his quill and staring at her. "Um, I'm sorry what was that? You want to claim Merlin's title? Nobody can do that. Only people directly descended from him can."

Calypso frowned, "Well, it says on the lineage test that I'm an Heiress to that title so I expect to be granted Ladyship. So hurry up with it, I don't have much more time."

He sighed and held out a hand, "Give me the lineage test for proof then. You don't know how many people have demanded to be granted that title."

She rolled her eyes and held it out for him. He read the Heiress's and his eyes widened. "Well? Happy?"

He nodded frantically, "Yes, of course. Now, I need to find the rings somehow… none of these have been claimed for a good thousand years…"

She waited patiently as he looked through his drawers, and finally came out with six boxes. One of them had a snake, one had a badger, one had a lion, one had an eagle, one had a staff and wand crossing, and the last had a trident, lightning bolt and a scepter together, with a circle around them. She had a pretty good guess at what each one represented.

The goblin opened the Shafiq box first, and the symbol on the front glowed as he took the ring out, "Repeat this oath after me." She repeated what he said, and once she was done he put the ring on her right ring finger. He repeated the same with the Merlin one, which went on her right middle finger, and the four Hogwarts rings went on her left four main fingers. She examined the rings as she listened to the goblin, "Now, as you are still a minor you will not be representing you House in any state functions or important meetings and such, but you do have access to the money and anything else in the vaults. As Poseidon is still very much alive, and immortal, you cannot claim that Ladyship, but you can claim the Heiress ring if you wish."

Calypso frowned, "No, I don't think so. I mean, it would be bad enough if people found out my mother was Cassandra Shafiq, but if they found out I was a demigod… that wouldn't go over well."

He nodded, and continued, "Just as well. Technically, you are not the eldest, your half brothers are much older than you. However, as you are technically still part of the family you do have access to the vaults if you are terribly low on money, but that shouldn't happen. You're Lady Merlin, for Merlin's sake!"

Calypso giggled at what he said and the goblin rolled his eyes at her immaturity.

She smiled at him and exited the room, pausing again for the same question, "What's your name sir?" He looked just as startled but answered, "Grinnaff." She smiled, "Farewell, Grinnaff."

Calypso looked at the time and cursed underneath her breath, "Mum's gonna kill me."
