The next day it was the girl's first lesson.
"Put your right hand over the left side of the broom and say up"instructed Oliver Wood to this year's first year's.
A little girl fell of her broom. Nicole ran over to her, to see if she was all right. The little girl had a very strong resemblance to Dominique.
She said to Nicole, "be careful with Dominique, true friendship will save her"
"What, what are you talking about"said Nicole extremely puzzled.
But at that moment the little girl vanished. Nicole gasped. She ran to see Dumbledore, for
Dumbledore had warned both girls that if anything strange happens, to tell him as soon as possible.
She ran all the way to his office.
"Grandpa, grandpa"
"What is it Nicole, calm down, take a deep breath and now tell me what it is."
She told him about little girl. Dumbledore had a troubled look upon him.
"Oh I knew this would happen, it's the bloody necklace"he thundered
"Grandpa!"Nicole exclaimed, "what about the necklace"
"Has anything funny ever happen involving the necklace?"he asked her.
"Well um yeah"she said uncertainly, "there was this one time where it started to glow bright green, I know it sounds stupid, but it did and we got freaked out, we were going to tell you we but as soon as we said that the glow vanished"
"Hm"he said, he was in deep thought.
"Um grandpa?"she said after five minutes of silence.
"Oh yes, Nicole hmm, yeah so that's it"
"Yeah, why?"she said suspiciously.
"Well it's about Dominique's father, it's kinda of a long story"he said
"Oh don't worry I have all the time in the world"said Nicole sitting down and pouring herself a cup of tea.
"I also don't know if I should be telling you this I mean you are young and you'll probably tell her and besides it is way to personal"
"Grandpa, look at who you're talking to, it's me Nicole you know that if you don't want me to tell someone I won't, I mean talking to me is like talking to yourself"she said
"Hm you got a point there"
"See"she said in a triumphal voice.
"Well you see this kind of has to do with Harry also"he said uncertainly. She frowned a little.
"Okay now you HAVE to tell me"
"Don't worry I will just not everything"
"Dominique's father is alive"he said. She gasped.
"Oh my God, are you serious, I mean that's great, why didn't you tell her that before"
"Because her father's name is Tom...Tom Riddle"
Nicole just sat there stunned. She tried to talk but couldn't find her voice.
"You see Tom was in love with Lilly, well you know Harry's mother, now the thing is that Lilly had a twin sister, her name was Angela, not a lot of people knew they were identical twins because Angela changed her appearance. Angela fell in love with Tom Riddle, but Lilly detested him, she was in love with James Potter. Tom would do anything to get Lilly's attention nothing worked. Years went by and Lilly got married Tom didn't know. Angela got really frustrated with her sister for Tom had proposed a lot of times."
Nicole was silent. Dumbledore continued.
"Angela then changed her appearance to look like Lilly. She went to see Tom she tricked Tom into thinking she was Lilly. They married after a year she had Dominique, but Tom, he was known as Voldemort now, found out that Angela was not Lilly and killed her. Now before he murdered Angela, she possessed a very strange necklace, it was a little golden needle. This needle isn't just any ordinary needle, it is a two part piece. A ring, if you put the needle through the ring it will form a key. A key that will make whoever connected the two pieces the most powerful men or women on earth, in the muggle or wizard world"
Nicole gasped.
"Voldemort has the second piece"
"Wait, wait, wait"she said quickly, "if Voldemort is as heartless as everyone says why didn't he kill Dominique and why didn't he take the necklace"
"As much as he hated what Angela did, he loved his daughter, I guess he wasn't as heartless, because he left her at my doorsteps, I saw him walk off in a dark black cloak he turned around and mouthed âEtake care of her' the letter said her name was Dominique and so on and he didn't know that the needle was the second part of the key he put it on Dominique because he felt she needed something to remember her mom, just like HE had a locket to remember his mom."
"I think I understand why the necklace glows, if you said it is a two part piece, it probably glows because it knows it's partner is near, which means Voldemort is near" she said frantically.
"She's in danger this is serious, but he is her father and he felt that kind of affection for her once he might feel it again right"
"No Nicole, I know your scared, I am to I love her to, but her time will come when she has to face her father, I know how she will feel, I'm just glad she has Ron the way you have Harry"
Nicole blushed.
"Well you better get to dinner as you didn't do much today"
"Grandpa I don't want to assist anymore I want to join classes" she told him.
"Hm I'll see what I can arrange, but you don't have any uniforms"
"I know" she said with a slick smile
