May, a month that for little Black meant two totally different things: a celebration for another year of life and concern for a month closer to summer vacations.

It was the second week of that month and during the previous weeks she had dedicated himself to practicing the Patronus enchantment and, according to Dumbledore, that night would be where she could finally conjure a full-body Patronus.

Meryl, Lily and little Black had breakfast happily as they prepared for Transformations.

"Soon will be final exams," Lily said between worried and excited at the same time.

"Great, Lily," Meryl replied sarcastically.

Calynn just smiled and turned her attention to hearing the flutter of the birds announcing that the mail had arrived; The Daily Prophet for Meryl who always arrived landed on the table and some correspondence of some students who sat around also landed making a lot of noise. The little Death Eater had not given it much importance and had looked away from her food until she saw two legs of a bird in front of her plate and immediately a knot began to form in her throat. She put her silverware aside and began to untie the envelope that was tied to the animal's leg while she felt her friends' eyes on her; she opened the envelope and when she saw the calligraphy of Druella she felt burning in her chest, like a kind of hatred towards that letter.

"Calynn Black:

Have you felt the burning in the left forearm? That's right, we are close, now go and tell Dumbledore. Or do you think we don't know? But keep this in mind, when you least expect it, we will be knocking on the castle door... you have no choice but to come here on summer vacations if you are still alive...

-D "

The little girl felt her heart beating, fear ran through every membrane of her body, looked up from the letter and looked at Dumbledore's eyes on her and just pointed to the word "Druella" with her lips and the teacher understood already who nodded and turned a worried face.

"This means that there is someone in the castle who is watching you," Meryl said.

"But who can it be?" Asked Lily confused.

"It's now when I've had more enemies, do you think Black has something to do with it?" Calynn asked, nodding at Sirius, the three girls turned to see him at the same time.

"I don't think so, the last time he talked about you with Druella, he was very scared," Meryl said this time, shaking her head and the boy just looked at them in fear.

Both girls remembered the only time where Druella had sent a vociferous and thanked Sirius for Calynn's information.

"We have to find the spy," Lily began, "whoever knows who your parents are, knows where your parents live and has a hate against you," the redhead said quite certain of her words.

Meryl and Calynn nodded and continued to have breakfast, despite everything, the concern in little Black was evident and she couldn't hide it from one moment to another.

The classes at Hogwarts were not as before, currently she felt quite depressed when she heard the offensive comments of her classmates always related to the mark of her arm. It was at that moment that she fully understood Severus, at that moment the only people who take pride in that mark are her parents, Voldemort and his followers; but the people she lives with every day see her as a danger to the school. The little Death Eater was surprised at how naturally Meryl had taken the revelations and that is when she realized something that had been thinking about it for a while, maybe Lily had told her something and maybe that was the reason why Meryl had not been upset.
