Rosabella Potter and the Philosopher's Stone

IV: Fudge and Malfoy Manors

Finally the day I leave for Uncle Neil's. I have everything packed and ready to go. I decide to wear my favourite forest green skater dress with a black belt and a matching green beanie with a pair of black heeled riding boots. I make my hair and eyes a very dark, almost black, shade of green. My hair also becomes pin straight and shoulder length.

"Rosabella! It's time to go!" Auntie calls up the stairs. I gather my trunk and luggage bags and start to take them downstairs. I get both my luggage bags downstairs when Auntie yells at Harry.

"Why are you just standing there? Go get her trunk." Auntie yells at Harry. He quickly runs upstairs and brings down my trunk. While that happens, Uncle Neil shows up to get me.

"I'll see you at Christmas. Bye." I say as Uncle Neil and I load up my stuff in his car. We are soon driving off to Uncle Neil's house.

"Did you dye your hair, Rose?" Uncle Neil asks as we get in the car and start to drive.

"No. I'm just able to naturally change my appearance," I reply.

"You're a metamorphmagus?"

"A what?"

"A metamorphmagus. They are wizards who can change their appearance. They are quite rare and valued. I believe your great, great grandmother was one, which is where you get it from."

"Cool."

"Now Rose, tonight some people from the ministry and their families are coming over for a dinner party around six this evening. The Malfoys are coming, you got along with Draco Malfoy correct?" Uncle Neil says.

"Yeah. It'd be nice to see him again." I say. We lapse into silence. Soon we arrive at a large house, a mansion more likely. I can see a large garden surrounding most of the house, and a small forest beyond that. A large black iron fence surrounds what I'm guessing the whole property, which must include some or all the forest.

"Welcome to Fudge Manor." Uncle Neil says. As soon as we get out of the car, two small creatures appear and bow. "Rose these are two of the house elves. They'll get your stuff and show you around the manor. I, unfortunately, have to return to the ministry but will be back in a few hours. If you want you can go visit Draco at Malfoy Manor. Just have one of the elves get you the floo powder. I'll see you later." And with that, the house elves lead me to my room with my stuff and Uncle Neil leaves.

Entering the manor, right off I notice everything is black or yellow. Not like a gold or butter yellow, but canary yellow.

"Excuse me but why is everything yellow or black?" I ask one of the house elves.

"Well Miss, every member of the Fudge family has been in Hufflepuff for ages, and so the manor is decorated in Hufflepuff colours."

We head up a staircase and down a hallway. Stopping in front of a door one of the house elves speaks.

"This is the door to your rooms. Whatever colour you want the door to be, it will become. Just touch the doorknob and think about it changing." I do as the house elf says and think about the door matching my room's door at Auntie's house. Suddenly the door goes from yellow to mint green with silver vines across it.

We go through the door and enter a large sitting room. Everything matches the new colour of the door. Inside there are two more doors. One on one side is a mint green door and on the other is a silver door. Each door has vine details of the other colour.

Continuing to look around, I see a set of glass french doors leading to a large balcony, a sitting area with darker green couches and lounge chairs, an open space for my art stuff, and a great fireplace.
