Melissa Sauvage is a dedicated Potions student, and in her final year at Hogwarts. Her dream is to work at St. Mungo's, brewing potions for the vast stores beneath the hospital. There's only one problem; the greasy-haired hooked nosed, Professor Snape. He doesn't take apprentices, and that is what Melissa needs. Armed with naught but courage, she intended to confront her teacher, ending up warded inside his private rooms. She finds a journal, old, tattered and dying, but tucks the volume into her bookbag, and escapes. The professor is decidedly unamused... Embark on a journey with Melissa as she strives to discover the story of a young lady lost to time, and understand why she loved the boy with black eyes.
