A/N: Okay, so far I would like to thank everyone who has been very
supportive while I wrote Roses and Thorns and I'd like to thank you all
again for inspiring and encouraging me to write Blood and Wine. I promise
it's going to get better right away! More romance, Death Eaters, magic and
monsters. Please review when you finish reading.
Students walked around the castle all together in case another kidnapping happened. Rumours were spreading like wildfire. Some even said the girl committed suicide. But at breakfast, Professor Dumbledore straightened everything out.
"Although your guardians or parents wouldn't like me telling you, I'm going to anyway," Albus began. "Patrice Blaise was murdered by one of Voldemort's followers." People cringed and flinched at The Dark Lord's true name. "The Death Eaters will come to Hogwarts on December first, and they will probably bring all the people and creatures they can find. We will try our best to get protection and seal up the school. On another note, I would prefer if everyone would wear they're black dress robes tomorrow for Miss Blaise's memorial. School is cancelled tomorrow."
` Usually people would have cheered about there not being school the next day, but right at the moment it would have been very inappropriate. ********** The next day it was the first time snow touched the ground that school year. When people walked the halls, no one talked, no one smiled. A few of Patrice's friends went outside and set out some candles on the lake. Dinner was even more depressing. The House flags were taken down for the day and set in their place were black drapes and a picture of Patrice's smiling face was set on each table.
"Severus, are you alright?" Hermione asked and rubbed his shoulder.
"I suppose. It is pretty hard to lose a student," He replied and poked at his whipped potatoes with his fork.
"Did you know her well?" Draco looked over.
"I knew a little bit about her, but I feel more sorry for her parents Blaise and Aaron. She was their only child." *********
