Veterans have wisdom. Interns have questions. Emma reads about Anže Kopitar's career and imagines how his experience might guide rookies like Laferriere-and herself.

Before the world feared Tom Riddle, there was someone who clapped for him. Elara Riddle arrived at Hogwarts already known, already respected, and already watching the shadows gather around her younger brother. When Tom is sorted into Slytherin and no one welcomes him, Elara does-and the House follows her lead. Protected by her reputation and quiet authority, Tom learns early that power can come not only from fear, but from loyalty. But Hogwarts is not kind to girls who question its greatest headmaster. After clashing with Dumbledore and sensing the darkness growing in Tom, Elara transfers to Durmstrang, where she becomes the White Rose beside the First Dark Lord. From Austria, she tries to guide her brother away from the path he is choosing-while shaping the future of families like the Malfoys and Lestranges as their godmother and protector. Separated by distance, ideology, and fate, two siblings stand on opposite sides of history-one becoming Voldemort, the other erased from the record entirely. This is a canon-divergent AU about loyalty, ambition, and the sister who might have changed everything.

As the story unfolds, every match brings tougher opponents, louder crowds, and moments that test more than just skill. STRIKEOUT is a story about competitive bowling, teamwork, and figuring out how to perform when it really counts - on the lanes and off them.
