Alicia Snape (Book 8)

Chapter 6

~Alicia's POV~

I waved my hand over the door so no one could come in unexpectedly and pulled out my necklace.

I took a deep breath and held it really tight saying "i call upon the forces of death to speak to He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named."

A dark figure appeared and I grew confused.

"You have to say the name."

"You know what I mean."

I rolled my eyes and said "Tom Marvolo Riddle."

The figure nodded and the Dark Lord emerged.

"Well if it isn't the one who thwarted me. What is it you want child?"

"Even when your dead your still the same. See how much you and Trevor are alike."

"Took you this long to figure it out?"

I smiled sarcastically and said "Why Astoria Greengrass? I would have expected Pansy but not her."

"It was a punishment for the family. Like you, they thwarted me so instead of killing them I made them a deal. I would spare them if they gave their daughter up to my son. They agreed."

"Wouldn't pin you as the merciful type."

"At that point in time I was. That was before I found out the truth about my mother."

"Astoria wasn't the best choice. She is the complete opposite of your son. She doesn't care about blood. She believes everyone is equal."

"Now how would you know that if you never spoke to her."

"Draco knows every single pure blood there is. He doesn't even have to speak to them to know whether or not they are blood traitors or not."

"Much like his father."

"I'm finished with you."

"I'm not."

I rose an eyebrow and he continued.

"If I were you I would take my son's offer."

"How do you-"

"He's my son Alicia. As you said earlier he is much like me. Just one difference he is alive and I am not. Now. Knowing my son he is spareing someone dear to you. If I had to guess I would have to say it is a child involved. And if I'm right, knowing you, you would protect that child with every being that you have. Much like your father."

"All you did was prolong when I would become one. You didn't keep me out of it. That is the same thing your son is doing and I won't make the same mistake my father did. I will fight for the right side and protect my children if it's the last thing I do."

"Your funeral." And with that he disappeared.

I sighed and leaned against my desk.

"Anyone else you want to speak to?"

I sighed and said "My father please."

"Remember-"

"Just get my bloody father please!"

I heard a sigh and then my father saying "someone is moody."

"Not time for your sarcasm."

"When is it?"

I turned and glared at him.

"What is wrong?"

"Well for one Trevor has escaped. He's after my daughter and Astoria Greengrass. That girl is not perfect for him! She's the complete opposite!"
