I walked back from Dumbledore's office thinking deeply. He'd let me with becoming a student divination teacher in his will. The only position I'd ever wanted and he willingly give it to me. I felt weirdly warm inside and shook it away as I paced up the Ravenclaw Tower stairs and knocked on the door, watching as the eagle head appear. It shook its metallic feathers and looked at me.
"Cassentina-Rose Lovegood. What a pleasure." It spoke. I smiled. "What goes up but never goes down?" It asked.
I smiled. "Your age" I finished and it nodded, opening the door as I headed inside.

The room was rather quiet as most if the students were asleep in their beds, but some were still reading or studying before they went to sleep. I looked up at the ceiling. There were stars enchanted like the night sky. It was extremely calming as I looked back down and headed up another staircase to the top of the tower where there was glass on every surface, as if you were on top of the world. At day, there was a magnificent view of the black lake, Quidditch pitch and the dark forest, but now there was the beauty of the moon and the stars. I smiled and I leant against the glass, knees clasped to my chest, opening my photo album Luna made me. I touched the surface of the photos, thinking of those fun time when I was still mortal. It made my eyes swell up. I closed it and took out my dagger out of my shoe. I studied it and felt it's enchanted, smooth texture, thinking about what Dumbledore told me earlier. I wish for you to be the student divination teacher in my will. Those words echoed around my mind as I stared at the stars until the sun rose in the morning.

I found myself in the library the next morning, reading a copy of Fantastic beasts and where to find them on a comfortable armchair behind the bookshelves. It was rather quiet in the morning and I had a couple of hours to spend before everyone went to their classes after breakfast. The large marble clock ticked on the wall and I focused on my thoughts. There were insightful woes of the other vampire voices in my head, but I could hear one in particular; of my dear Grandmother Pandora. She was asking me to complete my power and meet six other 'royals' in our very own secret association. One of them I'd previously met; Arabella Synette. They were as what you'd call princesses in which I was their queen.

The clatter if footsteps were the only ones to be heard in the isolated corridors up to Potions with the Slytherins and Gryffindors. I was the first one to arrive and spotted Professor Slughorn tidying up his books on his desk.
"Good morning, Professor" I spoke. He turned around and flinched, covering his chest as if he had a heart attack.
"Merlin's beard. You gave me a heart attack" he spoke. I smiled and walked up to him.
"I'm Cassentina-Rose Lovegood. You remember me from your Christmas party. I was escorted by Sanguini" I spoke, shaking his hand. He let go and nodded.
"Yes. Hello" he spoke turning around and fiddling with his books once again.
"Do you need any help?" I asked. He turned around and shook his head.
"My is it really that chilly. Your hands are like ice" he muttered. I smiled.
"Yes. I get that a lot." I spoke, smiling. "Other people say how I don't look like a day under fifteen or I am soo cold to touch and being around me sucks all your happiness away" I muttered. He turned around and looked at me, confused, but hid it away.
"So how did you come across Sanguini"
"Reasons among reasons" I spoke, shrugging. He nodded.
"So do you know who he really is?" He asked. I smiled.
"Yes" I spoke. "We can find ourselves similar in some way" I answered. He glanced at me, terrified.
"So you're just like him?" He asked. I smiled, leaning close to him and whispered. "Much Worse" and walked to my seat before the rest of the class walked in.

I seated myself next to Harry and the rest of the golden trio.
"Hello, Harry" I spoke, smiling. He looked at me, realising I was there.
"Cass. Hey" he spoke. I smiled as he took out his book and I glanced at it.
"Nice book. Shouldn't you have asked the owner before you borrowed it" I spoke to him. Hermione looked at me from the other side of Harry.
"I've told you Harry. Whoever owns it could be dangerous!" She spoke.
"Uh huh" I spoke, looking at him. "You'll never guess who owns it as a matter of fact Prince is a very popular pure blood surname. Just a hint" I spoke. Hermione looked at me.
"Do you know who it is?" She spoke. I smirked.
"I do." I spoke, looking at her. "But you don't, and you'll receive a huge surprise when you find out who he is!" I spoke. They glanced at me.
"How do you know she's not lying" Ron interrupted. I smirked again.
"How do you know I'm lying?" I spoke. He opened his mouth to say something and topped, nodded and looked at the teacher.
"Can anyone tell me what the  ingredients in the draught of living death are?" He spoke. I raise my hands in almost a second as for Hermione. He glanced at us.
"Cassentina"
"Powdered root of asphodel and the infusion of wormwood" I spoke, glancing at Harry and smiling. I could see this moment a year from now. What Professor's Snape's first words were to Harry was I bitterly regret Lilly's death as asphodel is a Lilly and a wormwood means regret bitterly or grief. I smirked and wrote down notes spoken by Professor Slughorn until we went to do potions.
