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
