I'm in love with Lucy Snape, but I'm a Weasley!

~Chapter five: Daily Prophet! Why you no tell me anything!~

Lucy's point of view 

Dear Lucy 

I recived your letter (just abouts, death eaters get suspicious if any owls and or letters enter the manor) but I am afraid that I will not be able to return to Spinners end any time soon. Due to the fact that I am now you-know-who's most trusted death eater and he expects me to stay at the manor twenty four seven until term resumes at Hogwarts. 

I know you want to know why I killed Dumbledore and I assure you that you will find out even if I don't tell you in the holidays. It is too risky to write it in this letter even though I have used invisible ink (which is pointless really because I doubt most of the death eaters can read or write) 

Oh yes and I don't know if you've heard but Mr Potter was moved yesterday by the order. Sadly I had to take part and also I accidently hexed George Weasley's ear off. I'm sure he'll be alright though, but Mad-eye Moody sadly died on this trip because of Mundungus Fletcher 

Potter is now at the burrow safely, you-know-who still intends to capture him though because he still thinks Potter has this thing called 'the trace' on him (never you mind what that means at the moment) but the trace has broken so it will be harder to determine his location (well we know that currently but if he moves we won't know)

Just a quick reminder that term starts in a week and a bit, I expect your bag packed of all your belongings and I also expect you to be on the Hogwarts express promptly. If not the consequences will be severe young lady!

I will not be on the Hogwarts express because I will already be at Hogwarts. Do not be alarmed at the changes I make, some of them are my choice but others are the dark Lord's (it's a case of obeying him or die...)

I shall see you there, good luck

Love dad

I placed down the letter I had just recived, carefully onto the coffee table. After Louise, Harmony and Hermione had left I had wrote to dad out of fear, because I wanted to know what was going on. So the next morning his letter arrived, I read it and that brings us up to now. 

So Harry Potter got moved from his aunt and uncles house to the burrow, George lost an ear and Mad-eye Moody died (and Fred said I was dangerous!) And 'the trace' what's that about then? Well dad said not to worry about that so I shan't. 

And I have to be back on the Hogwarts express otherwise I shall be in big trouble? Plus changes will be made at Hogwarts, some of them dad's some of them you-know-who's. That's a little odd! (Well not really because Voldemort has taken over the ministry along with his dirt eaters...Yes dirt eaters that's what I call them)

I paced for a moment in the living room, my robes twitched as I turned every time as though thinking for themselves a sutible plan. I stopped suddenly, smoothed down my white shirt and blazer type jacket before my eyes reached today's daily prophet.

I strided over to it (taking as long strides as my skirt would allow because it was just above the knee and tight fitting) and picked it. I scanned the headline which said 'Rita Skeeter gives us an inside look in her new book about Dumbledore' 

That article wasn't much help to me so I turned some more pages and read some more headlines 'Nimbus 2003! Fastest broom yet!' How can people think about Quidditch at this time?!?, 'It's new! It's blue! And it's extra fast floo!' Blue floo powder? Really? Who needs that?!? After all most fireplaces are being blocked off now...

I turned a couple more pages until I finally found a sutible headline 'Who really killed Dumbledore?' And underneath that was a sub-title 'was it Harry Potter?' What a load of dragon dung! Harry Potter would never kill Dumbledore! The stuff this prophet comes out with nowadays...
