Chapter Seven :
Trouble
'Good Morning Scorpius. Hope you are all right?' Salzara spoke to him straightening her own badge.
'Oh Yes. I'm fine. Good Morning'
They walked down to the Great Hall together, not hand in hand as usual though. She saw Severus with Rose and Hugo across the Gryffindor table accompanied by Lily.
Salzara shot a dirty look at Rose which was returned instantly. She had not forgotten Rose had done last night.
She gave a concerned smile towards Scorpius. She did like the boy, but just didn't want to confess. I just hope he will not break his vow, she thought to herself
Days past with not much activity, until one night searching the halls for stray students, she saw lights on in an empty class. She looked through the window, and what she saw made her eyeballs pop. She saw Rose and Scorpius in the room, snogging. She could not actually digest what she saw...
She ran away to the portrait of Professor Snape, the only Fatherly figure she had ever had.
'Professor, may I enter?'
'Ah Salzara! Long time no see? Come and join me.' he gave a small smile as she entered the portrait with her own created charm. She had a devastated expression on her face. Snape saw it in an instant and understood it was to do with Scorpius. He was the only one to whom she had confessed about her feelings for Scorpius.
'Who is the girl?'
'Rose... Weasley. Well how did you know what was wrong?'
'You may remember Salzara, that I had lived through the same situations. My worst enemy and my best friend together. I can feel you Salzara.'
'Yeah. That's right. Well I had another question Sir. I wish to give you a description and ask you to tell me if you have known such a person. Will you help?'
'Sure. What is it?'
'A woman with curly black hair, dark eyes, pale skin, heavy lidded eyes, sadistic laugh. She could give you shivers down your backbone, only by looking at you. A skilled duelist I believe.'
'Are you sure.. ... How do you know this woman?'
'Seen her in nightmares sometimes... From maybe a baby's point of view in its mother's lap. Running, killing, apparating, really scary. I believe by now that is how my Parents died. I see it at night, just as I saw it.'
'But that is quite not possible. You quite precisely describe Bellatrix. Narcissa's sister. But she died before you were born.'
'That's strange now. Tell me more Sir.'
'She was the Dark Lord's last best lieutenant, his most loyal. All Death Eaters knew she was obesesively in love with the Dark Lord, well all except the Dark Lord himself. He could not feel love. Well she would do anything to gain his respect, the only one she ever laid her pure-blood pride aside for. I believe there was something more between them than just slave and master, she was specially trained by him. She was a brutal killer, she died in the hands of Molly Weasley.'
'Well that's a real sad, such an able warrior to die such a shameful Death. Well thank you so much Sir.'
'You're Welcome dear. You may as well try and hang out with Albus more often, he will provide the same comfort, that Narcissa had provided to me.'
'I Night.'
not much here. Next the Dark Lord shall be found within 2-3 chapters and the mystery of Bellatrix shall be revealed.
Please review. It is an encouragement for me. Thanks
