Author's Note:
This chapter, disjointed due to it being from the point of view of two young, frightened sisters, is purely an experiment I wanted to mess around with in writing. After I was finished writing it, I read it, and felt, while definitely rough, it has a certain ring of both innocence and terror in it.
*Shrugs* So it's not you're typical chapter, but even so, there is a story in the worlds, albeit it, as aforementioned, though the eyes of two, young, confused girls. Insofar as my reasons for trying this style, I wanted to mention the Lewis Carroll poem 'The Jabberwocky.'
Read and review if you feel necessary, and if this chapter is removed, I understand - it definitely isn't my normal material.
"Wait," Melinda cried, screaming so terrorily
"I wouldn't go in there, it's totally scarelly."
But still, despite this, her sister entered the abandoned apothecary
Melinda followed slowly, so silent and acting wary
The blackened walls from the last explosion
Afterward time stood still – frozen
Even for wizards, this technique is antique
Melinda and her sister just stare around – bleak
And the doors disappeared, there's dark magic in the room
"Did I do this," she freaked out, insanely, "is this our last tomb?"
And her sisters cried as up a floorboard had crack-ted
But she dodged it, slipping backwards, right unconscious
Though she wasn't, her small mind considered, taking in the sight here.
My sis-sis and my dolly its right over there
But when she lifted her hand, a bright light shined, blared
And then darkness, no my sis-sis, no my dolly, no I'm scared
Earlier That Day
The rustic shack overlooked a looming moor. Wizards lived there before
But to the Bobbins it was lore
A wizard family isolated, but Hogwarts was coming, so they waited
Knowing their two daughters fated
To walk the halls they all come to love
But young, they almost didn't make it, before either acceptance letter
And to mentioned it flurried, no, to fully explain would be better
Josie, Melinda's younger sister, played a game Melinda didn't like, she looked around and she is missing
She hears a giggling and swings that direction and now walking
Their father owned many an apothecary, and even though Melinda felt it scary
Josie loved it here to both hide and herror
But the ones that were empty – Floo Powder got them there but once
Melinda considered her belly had hurting, during the spinning losing her lunch
So the elder held the younger's hand, both with tears in their eyes.
They missing and their parents had no idea why
So while the Wizarding community sniffed around as they searched
Still it took so long to find them, detecting Floo Powder's the worse
And they found them, some days later, both black sooted, both in ashes
And they cried in the bathtub concerned parents giving them splashed
What had happened, no one knew, even Dumbledore only speculated
And though he sought to find the truth, her knew those sometimes never waited
Even the Bobbin sisters aren't sure what they remember real or faked
But the big monster with big teeth made sure their sleep that year waked
