Black. That's the only thing Heather can register.
Slowly opening her eyes, she sees a gorgeous pink and purple sky completely free of clouds. Turning her head, Heather sees that she is laying in a flower field completely at peace.
Where are her family? Surely since she's dead...did her family not want her?
With those thoughts, she sits up taking in her surroundings fully. What she didn't expect was a tall, approximately 7ft male, dressed in all black with a dementor like cloak on, standing near her.
"Your Death aren't you?" Heather asks quietly not wanting to sound stupid or arrogant with her knowledge or lack there of.
"Yes Mistress that is what most people call me. I'm sorry that you don't get to see your family as you wish to." Death explains and Heather can hear how sincere he is when apologising.
"Why did you call me Mistress and what is your actual name? Death is just what mortals call you so it's easier for them right?" The second question catches the deity off guard not expecting his Mistress to care.
"I called you Mistress because that is what you are. You are my Mistress. When you collected all three Deathly Hallows whether on purpose or accidental. You collected and mastered them all, along with being from the Peverell line. You are also correct about the name. My actual name is Thanatos from Greek as that is where Hecate is from, also known as Mother Magic to you Wizard folk." Dea...Thanatos explains as he conjures a table with two armchairs for himself and his Mistress.
Heather walks over and sits down taking in the deity fully not really knowing why she is here and not in the underworld or wherever else.
"So why am I here? You said I cannot see my family and I'm guessing they've passed onto the next place since my parents have been dead since 1981. And since I'm not in that place or in the pits of the underworld I have some mission?" Heather questions as she gets comfortable in her armchair.
Thanatos looks quite proud of his Mistress actually understand why she is here and not panicking straightaway.
"That's correct Mistress. You see, your life you lived wasn't what you were meant to live. Dumbles manipulated you and your life since you were a babe so he could mould you into the perfect scape goat. Your mission as you put it isn't really a mission. You have two options." He explains slowly as he makes two cups of tea appear in his hands and passes one to Heather.
She nods her head in thanks "so what are my two options?"
"Option one is what normally should happen to a soul, you move on, and since you've done so many good things no matter the manipulation, you will go where your family is. Option two is my personal favourite. You go back, being reborn, with all your knowledge you have now, and right all the wrongs that have happened in your life and others around you." Thanatos takes a sip of his tea as he sees Heather slowly work out what the best option is.
"So if I be reborn, I'll be still me, but in the past, with all my memories and knowledge of my past life, fixing everything that has happened to me and possible having a different ending?" Heather questions slowly making sure she got everything correct. Thanatos just nods his head looking very pleased with himself.
"Right that's definitely what I want to do but I don't want to go back to some random day. That would be pointless. Maybe Dudley's birthday? That Boa wasn't a Boa was it? I'm sure it was Nagini looking back." Heather muses to herself thinking back on her life.
"Yes that would be a good time to go back since you'll have just over a month until your Hogwarts letter. What will you do once you've done his birthday?" Thanatos asks just wanting to see how his Mistress' brain works.
"Well, after I've set Nagini free telling her to go to Tom or Quirrell or...Malfoy maybe at a last resort. Then go to Gringotts do an inheritance test, maybe get a new guardian. Move so I don't have to live with the Dursley's. Get a wand from Knockturn Alley so I don't have a tracker for the Ministry." Heather explains her first two days and apparently it's a good two days as Thanatos looks as if he has won the lottery.
"Well done Mistress. That's an amazing plan. Please keep an open mind when you see your inheritance test. I'll send you back now. You can call upon me anytime you need Mistress."
And with that, Heather just sees black once again.
