Sirius ran out of Rose's room feeling dirtier than ever. Catching his best friend's daughter half naked and her forcing a kiss on him was not the reunion he had hoped for.

Tears of frustration built up in his eyes as he tried not to think about this anymore. He had come to understand the reality of the situation, the relationship he had hoped to have with his goddaughter was all but a distant fantasy.

As he was distancing himself as far as possible from Rose's room, he was stopped by Dumbledore.

His eyes twinkled as he talked to Sirius. "Sirius, my boy, how is Rose holding up? Did she like the food?"

Sirius looked at him with the still present expression of horror. "I went in and found her half naked touching herself, headmaster, I dropped the food on accident." He could not bring himself to reveal the entire encounter. He felt like the scum of the earth every time he thought about it. "I- I suggest we send no more men to her room, she is better off away from any."

Albus could tell that he was keeping something from him, and subtly tapped into his recent memories using low level Legilimency. He sighed, he should have expected this, she had been pleasuring men for the past 8 years after all. But then again, this would be a good way to test her, the way she had bound Sirius should have been impossible for someone so new to magic yet to Rose it came as naturally as breathing.

"I understand your concern, my boy, but I'm afraid we cannot avoid such confrontations. I will bring her food myself this time."

He walked past Sirius and into a corridor where Rose's room was located. When one of the house elves brought him a new tray of food, he opened the door and was greeted with a very similar sight Sirius had. Unlike him though, Dumbledore wasn't bothered by the display, he had lost any and all interest in sexual activities decades ago.

Rose noticed the old man and groaned. "What is it with you people and walking straight through locked doors?" Never bothering to cover herself, in an attempt to make the old man uncomfortable.

"Now Rose, I had not meant to interrupt. I simply intended on bringing you some food seeing as Sirius dropped the previous tray." He said as he left the tray of food on the table.

"Do you have any cucumbers around?" Asked Rose as she laid down on the bed again.

"Indeed we do, Rose, would you like them to be included in your meals?" He asked with curiosity.

She smirked. "Yes, I would. In fact, I'd love one right now."

Dumbledore called a house elf which put a cucumber on the tray and vanished.

Rose used her magic to levitate the cucumber towards her. "My fingers can only do so much after all" she said as she started pleasuring herself with it in right in front of him shamelessly.

Dumbledore's mind finally registered that he was staring at a girl more than 80 years old younger than him and he was starting to get very uncomfortable being in the same room with her. "This behaviour in the presence of others is very rude and disturbing, Rose. I demand you show some respect to those around you."

Rose made no attempt at concealing the triumphant smile on her face. "Oh? And what if I don't? Will you kick me out?"

He was not going to stand this blatant disrespect anymore. He was the great Albus Dumbledore, nobody talked and acted like that around him! He made the room's temperature drop to a freezing temperature and directed a deadly glare right into Rose's bright green eyes.

She didn't even flinch at his intimidation attempt. She knew the man was too much of a coward to actually hurt her. He did search for her for nearly a decade after all. "So if I don't comply you will lose your tempter? That's a great motive to resent you more than I do already, thank you for the information."

Dumbledore gave up and left the room.

Rose had already formed a plan to escape, and soon, she too would leave that door and it would be the last time she'd do it.

Nearly all order members were called to an emergency order meeting in the headmaster's office, which, unlike 12 Grimmauld Place's kitchen, was not very spacious. Well, usually it isn't but the office seemed to recognise the lack of space because it was a lot bigger than it would usually be. They were all sitting on chairs around a round table that barely had any space between them.

"Why an emergency meeting Albus? Has you-know-who done something?" Asked Arthur.

"We have found Rose Potter." He said, his voice full of exhaustion. He hadn't gotten much sleep since Rose got here. If things didn't improve soon he would have to use force.

Molly, who suddenly had a look of sorrow in her eyes, opened her mouth to speak but was interrupted before she could. "I did not call you here because I wanted to arrange a funeral. Rose Potter is alive."

The room was filled with noise immediately after he had finished speaking. Everyone was asking questions or talking amongst each other except Sirius and Severus who stayed quiet.

"SILENCE!" Dumbledore shouted, and the chatter immediately ceased. Unlike Rose, these people respected him and listened to him no matter what, as they should. He is the great Albus Dumbledore, defeater of Grindelwald after all. "One question at a time please."

"How is she?" Molly asked, eyes watery.

"She healthy. Healthier than I thought I'd find her." He said grudgingly. "But she wasn't looking forward to being at Hogwarts either. I am hoping she will change her mind soon. We only have 3 weeks to get her on track before the year starts and she is placed with the other 7th year students."

"Is that even possible?" Hermione asked, who was sitting next to the other Weasleys. She and Ginny had been best friends ever since her 2nd year when she saved her from the diary she had identified as a dark object. She had witnessed it possessing her in their dorm room and after stopping it, they took it to Dumbledore to destroy it. "Six years of Hogwarts in 3 weeks?" Ginny added.

"I am not certain yet; she would not listen to anyone trying to study magic at Hogwarts." Dumbledore admitted.

"Why? What's wrong?" Arthur frowned, there was something very wrong about this they were holding back.

"She's... not interested in learning magic or fighting anyone and... She is very intimate with men. I'm not sure it would be a great idea letting her be around children." Sirius gulped. The memory of the kiss playing in his head again.

Everyone stared at him shocked and wide eyed. Everyone except one person, who was chuckling. To everyone's surprise, that man was none other than Severus Snape. To get a reaction from that man was rare enough but to see him chuckling was unheard of. He certainly liked Potter. He would have paid no small amount of galleons seeing Black's reaction to being sexually assaulted by his own goddaughter.

"Her language isn't all that sweet either" Sirius added quietly.

"Maybe telling her about her parents could help, I'm sure she-" Molly started saying, until Severus interrupted. "Rose didn't seem like the emotional or sentimental kind, she thought her mother was a whore and was talking about it as if she was having a discussion about the weather."

Molly was looking at him shocked. How could she portray of her own mother in such a disgusting manner? She definitely needed to discipline her into a proper young lady.

"I'll have to agree with Severus here, Molly, but you can go bring her lunch and talk to her nonetheless." Dumbledore sighed.

"I'd be happy to!" Molly said proudly. The poor girl just needed someone to show her right from wrong. She had probably never been shown proper love living all alone. Her 7 children were all turning out great and that had to count for something.

"Where is she anyway?" Ron asked while stuffing even more food in his mouth, causing his mother to scowl and glare at him.

"She's in one of the rooms close to the potions classroom." Dumbledore's eyes hardened. "Do not let her out; I am certain she would try to leave."

"You mean you are keeping her here as a prisoner?" Remus finally spoke, his voice low and threatening.

"It is for her own good, she will come to realise she is much safer against death eaters here." Dumbledore countered.

Remus watched all others except Sirius and Severus agreeing with Dumbledore. He sighed and rubbed at his temples. What was he thinking? Taking her here against her wishes will only lead to her hating them or maybe even join the opposition out of spite. It seemed his opinion didn't matter here so he didn't bother voicing it.

"Severus, why don't you bring her some first year books from the library? Just the core classes will be sufficient, tell her we'll get her a wand after she's done with them. Hopefully with Molly's help she won't be as reluctant to side with us." Dumbledore suggested.

"Guess that marks the end of our searching expedition." Tonks said. It was weird to stop after years of searching every night, she had gotten into quite the pattern but she certainly would not complain about the extra hours of sleep she would be getting. "How did you find her anyway?"

"I had a squib contact in the area that spotted her, they let me know they'd seen someone heavily resembling Lily and I immediately took action." Dumbledore lied.

"And who might that have been?" Remus asked.

"They requested I keep their identity private." He replied. It was not unusual to see Dumbledore being secretive.

"It's getting late, I should take Rose's lunch to her now." Molly said, standing up. She had always wanted daughters. To her dissatisfaction, she had only managed to have one, perhaps she could take Rose in as one of her own, if she heavily resembled Lily then she could even be mistaken for a Weasley because of the signature Weasley hair.

Dumbledore nodded and called a house elf that handed a food tray over to Molly. She took the food tray and walked out of the office.

"What if she doesn't understand the 7th year subjects? What if she can't perform any complicated spells correctly? Will she train privately instead?" Asked Ginny.

"Maybe on some of the more complicated subjects there will be some problems but I doubt it. Rose had already performed some rather impressive magic with no prior knowledge and without a wand-" he slightly sneered as the image of the elder wand turning to ashes came to mind. "-and since she is old enough I don't see why she wouldn't understand any of the core classes. We shall wait and see what happens." Dumbledore said.

"Core classes? But what if she is interested in something else like Ancient Runes?" Hermione asked.

"She could study them after the war, but our time is limited. The core classes are enough to be an Auror." He replied.

Remus and Severus were for once both shared something in common. They were both disagreeing with everything the old man was doing. First he forces Rose to meddle in their world's affairs and then he chooses her career for her? Severus knew she already had a career, albeit not one he fancied, but it paid very well; Remus suspected what she did too, Albus did say she was physically healthy and Sirius said she was very intimate with men. He didn't want to paint the image on his mind but deep down he had acknowledged it. Rose would not choose a career in the wizarding world.

"You cannot make that decision for her." Moody argued, and many agreeing with him.

People were going against Dumbledore! Remus and Severus would never forget this. Remus had shied away from the man's control after he found out he had abandoned Rose at the Dursleys. He vowed to accept and listen to Rose's decisions after she was officially announced missing.

"Of course not, I simply stating that the core classes would grant her the option." Dumbledore countered. Although, he expected Rose to follow after her father's footsteps. She was eager to go after what she assumed her mother's profession was after all. He would somehow convince her to do it. Everyone bad a weakness, and Rose had to have one too. In the end, if nothing worked he would have to use a little potion influence. It would only benefit her after all.

A/N: In this fic, femharry's scar will not be a Horcrux, since it interferes with the plot I have in mind; the only Horcrux Tommy has right now is the snake, Dumbledore used the Diary to locate the others but assumed he couldn't locate Rose because there wasn't enough of his soul in her. The thing in Rose's scar that gave her Parseltongue will be Tommy's essence stuck in the scar; I haven't mentioned anything about the scar yet because she hid it with the metamorphmagus ability.
