"Welcome to a new year. Now that all of the first years are sorted and we've all eaten I have someone special to introduce. Her name is Phoebe Rose, she is a seventh year transfer student from Salem Academy in the United States. She has been sorted into Slytherin House and already made quite an impression here. Please give her a warm welcome because she has a special treat for us, she is going to give all of us a private concert." Professor Dumbledore announced, happiness glittering in her eyes.
Pheobe walked to the front of the room from a door on the side. She was greeted with warm and welcoming applause and cheers from her fellow Slytherins. Her guitar was safetly in it's case in her hand.
"Hey y'all!! Thanks for the warm welcome. Well, Professor Dumbledore is right, I am going to play and sing for y'all. But first, I have something to say since I know eventually y'all are going to know anywho," She drawled in a rambling sort or way, "Professor Dumbledore here is my god father, in fact is was he who got me this here guitar…after I won a bet. But I'm sure y'all don't want to here me talk, you want me to sing don't 'cha?"
The crowed cheered much to Phoebe and her god fathers delight.
"well, I ain't never performed in front of so many people, so forgive me if I'm a little rusty. This first song is by a muggle singer by the name of Christian Kane. It's called 'Pretty as a Picture" and it's a favorite of mine. Hope y'all like it!" She exclaimed as she sat on a stool she congured up and hauled out her new guitar. She tapped guitar so it would carry, she'd already done it to her voice. She took a deep breath and stummed the first cords of her favorite song. Then she opened her mouth and sang:
"Streets littered with diamonds
Every one's glistening
This whole world shines so brightly
I can't see a thing
Pretty as a picture
Seems like a golden rain
Settles me with love and laughter
I can't feel a thing
The sky's gonna open
People gonna pray and crawl
It's gonna rain down fire
It's gonna burn us all
The sky's gonna open
People gonna pray and sing
Oh, I can't feel a thing
Pretty as a picture
She is like a golden dream
Fills me with love and laughter
And I-I I can't feel a thing
The skys gonna open
People gonna pray and crawl
It's gonna rain down fire
It's gonna burn us all
The sky's gonna open
People gonna pray and sing
And I can't feel a thing
oh I can't feel..."
As the song ended the Great Hall erupted in cheers. But none was so loud as her beloved God Father. Phoebe turned to the staff table, winked and mouthed 'I think they like me!'
"Thank You!! Thank You!! Alright this next one is more upbeat...hope you like it!"
As she started a lively country tune, Albus couldn't help but feel like the proudest…father of all time.
"Albus, I do believe you have a star on your hands." Minerva whispered as they listened to the angel's voice.
"More than a star…a light in the growing dark." Albus whispered back. Yes, she was an angel and she would be a light that would bring this school out of the growing gloom.
A/N: I hope you like the song. I love it. You really should listen to it. :) Read and Review!!
