Fate and Life

Passion was in the Owlry, wondering if she should owl her parents and sister that she is alive.

No- they will be horrified that you are a Vampire. Her mind whispered. And she didn't want to endanger her family either.

She sighed, and petted her owl.

Nova came in the Owlry, searching for Dimitri's owl to send her brother Josh a letter.
She turned around and saw Passion standing there, with a worried expression on her face.
Nova started to approach her.

Her vampire like senses, heard Nova came in, but she couldn't let her know that. Nova was far too quiet for any human to hear.

She turned around when she stepped closer. "Hello. I am Professor Passion, or Professor Rose." She said in a voice that let her know that her mind was somewhere else.

Something was not right with prof. Rose, but Nova couldn't tell what.
"Nova Shay, Nova Shay Doherty", she started politely. "Nice to meet you professor Passion."
Fake, uncomfortable smile appeared on her face.

Passion knew Nova was the first one to notice something wrong with her.

You can tell certain people. Only if you know that they won't tell there parents. Ace told her. He didn't want parents to know that she was a vampire that was teaching.

"Nice to met you Nova." She transfigured a feather into two soft, plushy chairs. "Sit, looks like we are up to a conversation, ain't we?" Her mind returned to the living, so she was back to 'normal'.

Nova lightened up. Professor Passion Rose easily gained her trust.
She sat down and started talking, no, chatting.
"Most of the people call me Ovvie, or just N. I prefer Nova, though."
She was babbling, a common thing she did when she was nervous.
I wonder if she notices how nervous I am right now.

Miles heard from his friend Vicent that his little brother was practing transfiguration spells on the family owl, and that he couldn't reverse the spell. Miles freaked out and ran up to the Owlry, as he ran up the stone steps his footsteps were heavy. "Candy, Candy" Miles yelled out, he never did know why his mother let his little brother name the family owl "Candy". As Miles rushed into the Owlry he saw his Occlumency teacher, Professor Rose and another girl, judging by her robes she appreaed to be in Ravenclaw as well. They both started at Miles intently

The boy that walked in looked even more uncomfortable than Nova felt. She wondered if he is going to say something to them, or just pretend he has something to do.

Miles looked at Professor Rose, "Hello Professor, i meant to tell you I really enjoyed our last Occlumency class" Miles then looked over at the ravenclaw girl and smiled " Hey haven't i seen you in the common room?"

Nova relaxed again.
"Yes", she replied. "I'm Nova Doherty, but everyone calls me Ovvie."
After a small pause she continued, "You are Miles, aren't you?"

Miles smiled at Ovvie, she looked a lot more friendly now " Oh, nice to meet you Ovvie. Im Miles Bloxam, sorry if im interrupting something, it's just my little brother transfigured the family owl and doesn't know how to return it back to it's normal form" Miles rolled his eyes at his brothers stupidity "except the only thing is i don't exactly know what he turned it into, so have you seen something that isn't an owl around here" Miles laughed at his remark

Her eyes were roaming around the Owlry, trying to find something extraordinary.
"I see only birds here", she started laughingly, "wait professor, are you maybe the bird?"

Miles laughed at the Ovvie's joke "Haha, well my brothers pretty stupid, i doubt he would be able to turn an owl into a witch" Miles looked around the Owlry he didn't notice anything in particular " Urrgh this is just so typical of him "

"Hey, I have 5 older brothers who all used to do this kind of things to my stuff", she pointed out honestly.
"Uh, wait is that a rock with wings?", she started. "No, sorry, that's just a bird."
She blushed.

Miles looked over at the what Ovvie was refering to, he smiled as it was only a small bird, Miles pulled out his wand, and cast the cushioning charm allowing him to sit down on an invisble seat, Ovvie looked at him stranged as he appeared to be sitting on thin air. " You don't mind if I join you for abit do you?"

Amazing, that would be the world to describe Miles ability to sit on air. Ovvie was impressed.
"Yes, of course you can", she responded to his question.

Miles smiled, " So Ovvie do you take potions?" Miles asked

"No", she responded, "but I'm thinking about it."

" Oh ok" Miles said " Well i take potions, though sadly to my mothers disappointment im not exactly top of the class, i rank about 3rd. You see my mother is a well noticed potioneer; Amelia Bloxam, you probably would have heard her?" Miles hoped this didn't make him sound pretenious, he looked down in embrassment

She smiled at his comment about his mother.
"Who doesn't know who she is", she pointed out."She's a legend."
I know a lot about overachieving mothers, Ovvie thought to herself.

"My mom is disappointed in me in every way", the girl started, "and I'm one of the best in everything."
Nova smiled again.
"If I were more like her, you would hate me right now."

Miles blushed as Ovvie was complimenting his mother. "Why would your mother be disappointed in you, i mean not only were you sorted into Ravenclaw, your also very sweet and kind"

Miles then wondered, if she's a pure blood and her mother wanted her to be in Slytherin, Miles could relate to that, while his mother was thrilled that he was sorted into Ravenclaw his father who was a strong beleiver in blood purity and pro Slytherin he was disgusted that Miles wasn't sorted into Slytherin

"Sweet and kind are not qualities for my mother, they are weaknesses", she replied to his question.
In her head, there were many flashbacks at that moment, her mom yelling at her in most of them. A weaker person would probably be completely insane after years of that treatment, but Nova was a born fighter.
"She was in Durmstrang you know, she's Bulgarian and all that", Ovvie pointed out.
"Always the most popular, the top of her class, she ran the pureblood clique."
A smile appeared on her face. "I'm my dads daughter, I don't care about that stuff."
Now she was blushing.

Miles smiled at Ovvie as she was telling him about her family, he was amazed how much they had in common, " I can relate don't worry" Miles said. As they were talking Miles heard an unsual scrapping nosie, he turned around and noticed a a large rose flower with bird feet and brown wings " Candy?" Miles said looking at the object intently

"Ooooh, it looks so pretty", she said in a soft voice and then added "but in a creepy, I hope it doesn't come anywhere near me, way."
She started laughing and then asked Miles what should they do.

Miles quickly got up realising that it was his owl, he drew out his wand "Petrificus Totalus" he shouted, the large rose creature was immbolised instantly, Miles walked over to the creature and picked it up. "Well i'd say this is my owl" he smiled and looked over at Ovvie " Well i think i better go and see Professor Romain, the Tranfiguration teacher, im sure he'll be able to fix this up"
