A new chapter. Wow! It's been a while since I updated any of my stories.
This is written in Wordpad so no spell-check. Thanks for all the reviews
people. I'll try to update again soon.
Chapter 6
Averinda swirled around and looked at the headmaster: "What did you say?"
"Huh? Oh nothing, just thinking aloud." The headmaster said smiling weakly. "I have to look out for what I say around Averinda," He thought: "Even though she doesn't resemble Severus in physical form, their minds are equally sharp."
On their way to the gryffindor common room they passed by professor Flitwick and professor Sinastra and told them that the two gryffindor student were fine and that they had to tell the other searching members of the faculty.
A few minutes later they arrived at the Fat Ladies painting, she yawned and looked at them with sleepy eyes: "What's the passwo,.... Oh, I'm sorry headmaster, I'll open right away." and with that she swung open.
Dumbledore looked around shocked, everywhere around him were students frozen on the spot. On one of the couches sat Ginny, with tears in her eyes obviously preparing herself for the worst: "I'm so sorry Headmaster, I don't understand what happened but I'll try anything to stop it from happening again."
At that moment she noticed that Dumbledore didn't even seemed slightly interested at what she was saying. Instead he walked around some of the frozen students and seemed to be studying them: "Magnificent Miss Weasley, The most spectacular display of Chronomancy I've ever seen." (A/N Chronomancy is a subtype of magic that focuses primarily on the control of time)
Ginny looked surprised at the headmaster: "I don't know Sir, I freaked out when I saw Harry climbing the stairs and the only thing in my mind was to stop him or anybody else from finding your granddaughter."
Averinda felt a warm sensation inside at the thought of anybody caring so much about what happened to her, meanwhile Severus was shocked that he liked the thought of being friends with the Weasley girl.
Suddenly a loud noise could came from outside and with that a large and beautiful Phoenix came flying in and landed next to Dumbledore. It shifted and changed, a few second later a woman in her early twenties stood next to Dumbledore. She wore wide jeans which were adorned with golden runes, she also wore a short tight jacket over her torse which displayed the beauty of her figure even more. She wore solid, muggle looking shoes and had a beautiful Phoenix shaped earrings in her ears. Long Black hair hang down her back. She smiled cheerfully at Dumbledore: "Hi Dad, Good to see you again." And she stepped over to Averinda and hugged the girl: "Hi girl! Missed me?"
"What, Who, Albus what,....." was all that Severus managed to say before the young woman interrupted again.
"Ah, Come on now, I knew that you would like it here but to forget your own mother in a mere 9 hours, that's overdoing it." she said with a familiar twinkle in her eyes.
Albus was trying very hard not to smile: "Lady Auriora, how good to see you again." and he made a bow for the woman.
She looked very annoyed at him: "I told you not to all me that, Dad."
"Ah, and why not? After all, you are the High Witch of the Three Spirit Coven." he said cheerfully.
Auriora sighed: "I should have followed Mum's example and declined. All the extra power and not to mention the multi-animagus ability are a lot of fun, but the work toll is way to high. I even had to send my own daughter to Hogwarts."
Albus chuckled: "I warned you, but as usual you wouldn't listen to your parents."
The young woman looked annoyed at the older man "I know dad, stop rubbing it in. But now that were talking about work, I came here because I sensed a teleportation spell pierce the shield around Hogwarts! What happened?"
"Hmmmm, I'm not entirely sure but i think a new Mage displayed a bit of uncontrolled wandless magic."
Auriora eyes became a bit larger: "A new Mage? Are you sure? This is too important to kid about Dad. Where is he?
Albus smiled: "Actually it's a she, she's the one sitting on the couch."
Auriora's eyes snapped to Ginny who to that moment had been very happy with not being noticed: "I'm really sorry Madam. I really didn't mean to do it. Please don't expel me."
"WHAT? You think you did a bad thing? It really great that Dad managed to find someone who has been given training in wandless magic." she said with a comforting voice.
"Training? I never received training in wandless magic." A surprised Ginny replied.
"Never training? But that would mean," She turned around to face Dumbledore once more and her lips silently without sound made the words: "Council of Nymphs?"
Severus saw that Dumbledore simply nodded. Luckily they didn't know that he had mastered the art of lip-reading long ago to help in his spy work. The Weasley girl, Ginny, was sitting utterly confused on the couch. Severus coughed slightly drawing attention to him from both Dumbledore's and the Weasley girl, he grinned evilly and both the Dumbledore's before he asked his question: "What is the Council of Nymphs?"
Both the Dumbledore's looked stunned at the girl but it was Auriora who started: "Well, you see, eh, this is kinda hard to explain. It is like this,...."
Suddenly from outside came a hellish shrieking and cursing, It sounded like it was coming from Hagrid's place. Everybody ran towards the window but since it was already dark outside nothing could be seen. "We better go look." Albus said with a very relieved look on his face and he ran out of the common room, followed closely by his daughter.
"I'm not going to let them get away with this." Averinda mumbled and started to run after them but before exiting she whirled around and looked at Ginny: "Well are you coming? Knowing Hagrid we'll probably have to tame a dragon or something and some wandless magic might come in useful."
Ginny looked surprised at the invitation and started smiling and jumped up from the couch: "Let's go! Hurry! Or they'll get away!" she told Averinda while rushing past her and diving through the entry hole.
Both Snape and Averinda looked a bit stunned at the girls reaction. Snape wanted to start mumbling but Averinda smiled and went in hot pursuit of Ginny, determined to beat her mother and grand-father.
