Here's chapter 4. Enjoy!:(It's a bit short sorry!)
Chapter 4: Goodbye
Silence reined the entire hall when Pluto left. " Papa... I want to say goodbye to the Malfoys, Parkinsons, and others today and… "
Someone cleared her throat and both Serena and Snape turned around to look at Pluto.
Serena with a sweat drop on her head asked," Um… Pluto… where's the mist and smoke?"
"Uh, those are just for show and a feeling of magical and mystical presence. Anyway, Princess, I forgot to tell you that a month in the other dimension is a week here so you wouldn't be away from this world for too long and when you come from the other dimension you would re verse back to the age of ten but you would continue to age normal in the other dimension. On your final trip back you would be capable to use any power I taught you in the other dimension… understand?" Rena nodded and once again Pluto disappeared with the final word," This is day one."
So the Snapes set out to meet their friends and announced that Snape was sending Rena to a trip in Japan before school begins in hogwarts.
The second day was spent in Diagon Alley and Serena got many 'presents' or more accurately textbooks, ingredients for potion, wands, nimbus 2000, and the likes. By the time Rena and Snape entered the Leaky Cauldron, Rena was complaining that she was going to be gone for only about 6 to 7 weeks and that he shouldn't load her with all the 7 years of hogwart homework and text alike. Snape glared at Rena but the result was Rena glaring back. Snape sighed and explained, " Since the other dimension have a longer period of time I don't want to waste it. I've also compiled a schedule for you to follow and everyday you come back here I would quiz you on the subjects. " And so the second day passed.
On the third day, Rena spent the day talking to her grandmother and instructing the house elves on what to do. As the clock stroked twelve, Rena stopped reading, a portal opened and Pluto stood within saying," The time has come, lets go Princess." Rena nodded and with a final hug to her father, she left.
Snape could only sit there and watch as the portal disappeared. He sat there for hours and finally he got up with a different aura around him. The warmth seemed to disappear and his eyes seemed to become stone and he got up and bellowed," MINT. MINT…. MINT… MINT! Where are the severnts when you need them!" and he stood up abruptly with his cloak bellowing behind him to his lab where he worked nonstop for 6 days except for his meals which was brought to him by Mint.
