Chapter Two

Enjoy the little things, for one day you may look back and realize they were the big things.

I just posted the second chapter.  It's all right, but I'm not particularly thrilled with it. 

(SPOILERS)

I was considering saving James' dream for a later point in the story, but it's reoccurring, so I decided to go ahead and introduce it.  I'm not sure how I feel about it.

I love writing Bitch!Constance.

I just hope that everything was clear.  Major points:
- Logan Barber was kidnapped by Death Eaters
- Edgar Bones is the son of the Minister for Magic, and his dad is involved in numerous scandals.  Minister Bones is set to go on trial so the Wizengamot can determine if he is fit to remain in office.
- James receives a mysterious letter than is relieving to him.
- Bellatrix decides to teach the class about Dark Wizards in order to better prepare them to fight.
- Alice is giving an ominous prediction in Divination.

And because you're wonderful, this is an excerpt from Chapter Three:
“You shouldn’t speak to government officials like that, Black,” he spat the name as if it were an insult, and Sirius took it as such. “You wouldn’t want your future falling into the hands of someone who could lock you up for the rest of your life.” 
But Sirius Black had never feared the Ministry, and he never would. In later years, people would call him unhinged for that, but though he made it difficult to see, Sirius, perhaps, had more sense than any of them.
Love Always,
Kayla

  2. Thanks Rebecca, and thanks for the review!

    In response to that, at this point in the story, Bellatrix has not announced her loyalties one way or the other. Thanks again!! <3
