A/N: This is my very first fan-fiction ever, which I wrote way back in 2004, so the 6th and 7th books did not yet exist, and that is why certain things are different from the canon in this story. I have touched it up a bit and corrected some mistakes that had been made, but other than that I have decided to keep the story in its original state, since this is how 19-year-old me wanted it written.
Thank you so much for reading it, I hope you have enjoyed it!
Have a lovely day! ^^
