Part 3: Future
A/N: This is extremely short. I could have made it longer, but that would have been adding extra stuff, which is, after all, not Trina's style. Enjoy it and please review.
The future... ah, such a fickle thing. We spend our entire lives looking toward it, but by its very nature it remains beyond our reach. Before we know it, the future is the present, then the past.
My future... probably much like my present. Continuing on here at Eville Mansion, being resident "housewife" and pretending to work for Tom. I wonder what will happen when he realizes I'm a spy. Probably he'll kill me. Make a big show if it, too. The thought doesn't really bother me. He is on the wrong side and I am on the right side. We both know it, he will just never admit it. I guess it'll stay that way, too.
That's another reason I'm a traitor. Tom is too stubborn to see that good will win in the end, that he is destined to be on the losing side for all eternity. I may be in danger, but my side will win.
I can't help but remember what Dumbledore said to me the other day. "Trina," he sighed, "I may be at the head of our side, but there's no one who does more for our cause than you and Severus." Did I mention that Severus is teaching at Hogwarts? He's a spy, too. Funny, but I don't have as much against him as I used to. We'll never be friends, but at least we don't hate each other. Comrades-in-arms, you could say.
Well, I know who I am. I am a mutineer; I am a spy; I am in an occupation that demands lies when lies go against my nature. I am a liar that tells the truth; I am a good traitor; I am one who takes things for what they are. I am Spots.
I am Catrina Skeeter.
A/N: Yep. Very short. Review it anyway, please. And thank you in advance, if you do.
