Here's the first part... Enjoy.... XOXO
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The night was cold and silent. A few small shimmering lights glowed in the distance, barely noticeable. The dark shadows seem therefore fully glooming in this particularly dark night.
Footsteps echoed on the hard cobblestone sidewalks. No one should have been out on this night, particularly in a time like this. It was said that the Dark Lord had eyes everywhere.
But the man walking in the alley was no ordinary man and he was not afraid of the dark. He was Albus Dumbledore, the greatest wizard of the age. His crescent shaped spectacles glimmered in the dark and his long white fair beard shone like an exceptionally strong and glowing Patronus.
The old man walked gracefully and arrived to a large Manor with creaking black gates. The forest surrounding it made the manor look even more grand and wealthy. Dumbledore stared into the archway in front on him. With a flick of his wand, he expertly sent red sparks up in the sky. A tall slender form apparated behind the gate. The witch was wearing a long black coat with her hood placed over her head. Her dark raven hair fell elegantly around the hem of the collar and her face was both fragile and graceful.
" Elena Prince...what a delight to find you here after years ", started Dumbledore. " I've missed you much since your graduation from Hogwarts"
"We both know that you did not like me that much after what happened", replied Elena, her face impassive.
Dumbledore frowned slightly at that remark.
"Nonsense! Your sister was a great student but you had the most potential. You see it was just a matter of time before you showed your talent.", exclaimed the old man.
Elena looked at him with disbelief.
"I saw the look on your face when you found out , Professor",she retorted.
Professor Dumbledore gave her a sad smile.
" May I ask to what honor I have to be welcomed at the Ravenscar manor tonight.",Dumbledore asked.
A few seconds of silence passed between them . Then Elena started to talk again...slowly.
"It might be easier if you came in, Professor..."
"Absolutely! I do love tea parties, especially at night."
" Excuse me ,Professor. This is a serious affair and I desperately need your help."
Elena gestured towards the door of the manor and unlocked the door with a flick of her wand.

" You know , Elena, you were always a bright student. There's no reason you should pity yourself for it.", exclaimed Dumbledore, while walking towards the magnificent mahogany door of Ravenscar Manor.
Elena didn't answer this as well.
Silence took the reign.
Dumbledore couldn't help but feel a small amount of disappointment.
"So why did you require my help, Elena?"
The woman seemed to snap out of her consciousness.
"You know, Professor, that I have a child."
Dumbledore nodded.
"Yes of course, Amelia isn't it?"
The woman nodded.
" And you know that my husband has just joined the Death Eaters."
Dumbledore nodded apologetically.
"Something terrible has happened and if you can't fix this, no one can."
They were now crossing into the main room where maybe once was beautiful but now was more dark than elegant. The walls were black and plain, wallpapers were ripped and the once extraordinary canvases were now replaced by masks of every size. DEATH EATER MASKS.
Dumbledore fixed his surroundings curiously.
Elena sighted.
" Martin has been consuming alcohol and drugs...A lot. I don't think I can live with this anymore, Professor. And the worst part is...", Elena explained. She paused before saying the next few words.
" He gave my daughter the Dark Mark..."
