Hello again.

While not automatically the end of the story, it is on a technical scale. Things will definitely take a more unique turn from here on.

Don't own Harry Potter

Back, back, back!

"Home, sweet home." Bellatrix smiled as she held the door open for Jasmine.

Summer vacation had just begun, and she was certainly looking forward to a break.

Just wish you two were here as well. Went through her head as she walked over to start cooking, any and all luggage instantly packed away upon arriving. "Anything in particular, Jasmine?"

Jasmine thought for a moment, then shrugged. "Moony wants some ham, but I'm okay with what you want."

"Ham sandwiches it is, then."

Bellatrix chose the simple idea as she had only just gotten back from the whole mess with the Chamber of Secrets, including the hassle of keeping it and the basilisk corpse found in a side cavern as Jasmine's official property for 'dealing' with the beast (at least, according to...whatever was going on in people's heads that made them believe it).

It also let her focus some on one particular detail.

Teresa Marvel Riddle.

From what Ginny described, the diary was clearly one of Tom's Horcruxes. But that doesn't explain how she was connected to it instead. She wondered as she ate.

Just what was she missing? Who truly was Teresa?

And what exactly did she want with her girl?

Jasmine, when the meal was done, yawned, making Bellatrix smile. "Bed time already? I'll be up in a little bit."

"Okay, Mama."

Bellatrix pondered for a few more minutes before tiredness got to her as well, eliciting her following Jasmine to bed after changing into a simple black nightgown.

She didn't notice Jasmine not having changed before laying on her bed and sleeping...

Jasmine whimpered a little, not quite yet registering the feeling of the bed beneath her just yet.

The bed that was not her own.

But as far as Jasmine was concerned, at least for the moment, was that it felt good!

She giggled when she felt a hand gently tickle her bare side. "That tickles...wait..."

Bare side?

Jasmine had to blink when she noticed herself in her work outfit, only to gasp softly when she saw who was now above her in the moonlight.

Dark hair with crimson ends, skin like her own, a black high-waisted strapless swimsuit with purple trim, night blue knee-high sandals, and a crimson scarf trailing down to the small of her back.

And blood red eyes that shone with clear desire that made Jasmine blush.

"T-t-teresa?"

Teresa grinned as she trailed a finger around Jasmine's face and over her lips. "Indeed. My ritual worked. But I was honestly surprised by just how much I got from you in particular."

Teresa sighed in pleasure. "Oh, it feels so good. Just like you."

Jasmine squeaked, making Teresa giggle and lick her lips. "Like silk, I'd say. Velvet silk, with a slight dip of some form of cream. All in all...delectable."

Jasmine shuddered, unsure of what exactly was going on as Teresa spoke and moved her hand down Jasmine's side.

Teresa temporarily stopped around Jasmine's stomach, making the younger girl shudder and breath a bit heavily to her gleeful eyes. As she slowly slipped under the band of Jasmine's pants, she lowered herself to Jasmine's ear, whispering just as she reached her target. "Hope you like my...gift. Free of charge."

She poked inside.

"Kya!" Jasmine woke up with a cry, curling up from the sensations coursing through her that came from her core.

Bellatrix stumbled awake, startled, only to notice Jasmine's flushed face. "Jasmine? Are you alright, sweetie? Nightmare?"

"Not a nightmare, but...um..." Jasmine's face reddened further, "Something else."

"Oh?" Bellatrix raised a teasing eyebrow, sensing something embarrassing, "Something I shouldn't know? Maybe about a certain someone?"

Jasmine blinked at the woman, making her giggle. "What are you talking about, Mama?"

"Nothing you should be concerned about right now, hon."

Jasmine pouted, making the giggling worse.

Just then, Moony cut into the conversation with an intense growl towards the front door, getting both of their attention.

"Moony?" Jasmine asked, only to tense up a little. "He says someone is coming. Two people. And something's smells off about them."

Bellatrix was glad her wand was close at hand. "Power him up."

Jasmine nodded and concentrated, turning Moony into his bigger form as Bellatrix held her wand at the ready.

The next minute or so seemed like an age to the trio, waiting for something, anything, to happen.

They didn't notice the sun rise through the window as the doors finally opened with a twin yell, followed by two people that seemed to have leaped through.

The first was a man with black hair, while the second was a woman with red hair with green eyes.

Bellatrix's eyes widened. "It can't be..."

Jasmine looked at her. "Mama?"

"James? Lily? You're...alive?"

Yep, James and Lily are back, and Teresa's just like Jasmine. Just what else is there? And what potential differences are there (if any) between their powers? And just how are James and Lily alive?

It's part of why this is so small in comparison.

Until next time. Please let me know what you think.
