miss foley of hp hogwarts

The clouds that have been gathering for the past few days have shrouded the sky in Hampshire, and goose-feather-like snowflakes have been falling for several days.

The entire Foley Manor seemed to be covered with a thick white blanket, and the roses had long since withered in the white snow. The surrounding area was silent and lifeless.

The dim light seemed like a layer of black gauze, covering up the small figure curled up on Mr. and Mrs. Foley's big bed.Ace had been lying in bed all day. She did not go back to Hogwarts from the Ministry of Magic, but went home - and indeed Mr. and Mrs. Foley did not go home.

Lying on his parents' bed, smelling the familiar scent, Ace felt that his soul had been temporarily soothed.Here, she would not replay those images repeatedly in her mind - the image of the man in black robe gently waving his wand to emit a green light in Diagon Alley, and the image of pedestrians suddenly falling down on the road.

"Miss, you need to eat something."

Weiwei didn't know what Ace had been through, but seeing the young lady not eating or drinking, she was very worried, so she had to bring food to ask after every meal.

The figure on the bed finally moved, and through the faint light, Weiwei saw Ace sitting up, with no trace of energy in his gray-green eyes.She stared blankly at the door, expressionless, like a wax figure.

Weiwei walked through the door quietly, placed the tray on the spring stool on the bed, then walked to the bedside and turned on a dim small lamp.The sudden bright light made Ace subconsciously raise his hand to cover his eyes, but the dim light was not enough to stimulate her, so Ace lowered his arm again.

Weiwei stood by the bed, clasping her hands and looking at Ace with big eyes expectantly.Her gaze was so intense that Ace had to turn his head to look at her.

Finally, Ace got off the bed, sat on a chair in the room, mechanically cut the steak on the plate, and started eating.

At night, Ace suddenly sat up from the bed, opened his eyes wide, gasped for air, and his chest heaved violently.She dreamed of yesterday's scene. Those who fell on the ground crawled to Ace's feet, grabbed her legs tightly, and asked sternly why they were the ones who died and why they were killed.

For several days, Ace was afraid to sleep, and would have nightmares when he fell asleep.

……

Snape was busy in the Room of Requirement preparing potions, and did not hear about the frightening rumors that had spread in Hogwarts.He finally prepared the perfect potion today and returned to the Slytherin common room.

"The death toll in Diagon Alley has reached 10."

"There are a lot of people going shopping on the day after Christmas, and the number of deaths will increase."

"Are we really going to join the Death Eaters?"

Hearing the chat between the two people, Snape was stunned for a moment, walked over and asked, "What happened?"

Seeing that it was Snape, the two people chatting did not dare to show dissatisfaction with this junior who was said to be Malfoy's favorite, and answered his questions honestly.

"One night after Christmas, Voldemort's disciples attacked Diagon Alley and it was said that ten innocent people had died."

"Aurors from the Ministry of Magic arrived behind to stop them, but there were casualties on both sides."

Snape frowned and turned away, heading towards his room.It seemed like what happened after she left. I wonder if Ace left at that time. She said she would only go home for one day, right?Has she gone back to school?

Snape hurriedly finished his shower and rushed to the Great Hall. It was time for dinner.After walking in and scanning around, Snape didn't see Ace.

He walked over to the Hufflepuff table and attracted a lot of attention.

"Excuse me, have you met Miss Esperance Foley?"

The girl in question shook her head and said she had never seen Ace.But she asked Snape quietly, with a worried look on his face.

"Do you know where she went?"

"Diagon Alley." Snape spat out three cold words and left with a sullen face.

There was an exclamation from the Hufflepuff table, and everyone covered their mouths in disbelief.

"Merlin's rotten robes! Diagon Alley?"

"Ace, she went to Diagon Alley!?"

"Ace-san will be fine! She's not on the list!"

Snape ignored the commotion in the dining room.

He went to Professor Slughorn's office, and Horace looked surprised at his arrival.

"Snape? I really shouldn't have let you go to Diagon Alley that day. Didn't you encounter that incident?"

"No, Professor." Snape pursed his bloodless lips and uttered two words stiffly, "Can I borrow your fireplace again?"

"Where are you going?"

"Diagon Alley, Professor."

"That's not okay, Snape. Diagon Alley is still dangerous."

Snape was silent for a while, then spoke with difficulty: "Professor, Ace...she didn't come back that day..."

Horace Slughorn stood up suddenly and looked at Snape with an astonishing light in his eyes.

"what!?"

"That night, she...she said she was going home - and she didn't come back with me."

Snape clenched his hands into fists and lowered his head, but he immediately raised his head and looked directly at Professor Slughorn, and said in a firm voice: "I want to go to Diagon Alley, Professor."

"No." Horace rejected him without thinking, pacing around the sofa uneasily, thinking about a solution.Finally, he stopped and looked at Snape, "I will go to the Ministry of Magic to ask. You just wait here."

Horace disappeared into the fireplace.Snape had no choice but to sit on the sofa, looking towards the fireplace from time to time, his face uncertain, not knowing what he was thinking.

Not long after, Professor Slughorn came back. His face was relaxed, and he obviously had good news.

"Miss Foley is fine. Snape, it was Miss Foley who went to the Ministry of Magic to report!"

When Snape heard that Ace was okay, he loosened his clenched fists slightly, then stood up and walked towards Horace.

"What about her?"

"Ms. Jenkins said she seemed to be in a bad mood and should have gone home." Professor Slughorn touched his chin with one hand and spoke in a low voice.

"Thank you, Professor."

Snape nodded and left.

The next day, Snape saw Ace on the covered bridge.

She put her hands on the wooden railing, leaned forward on it, and stared ahead.As he got closer, Snape noticed that her eyebrows were drooped, her usually bright eyes were empty and lifeless, her eyes were green and black, her lips were bloodless, and she looked very haggard.When his family first moved to Spider End Lane, his mother looked like this.

"Ace, when did you come?"

Snape walked up to Ace and looked at her worriedly.

Ace's lips moved and he made a dry sound, like the sound made when two pieces of inferior parchment were rubbed together, "Severus, I saw it..."

After waiting for a while, Ace did not continue. Snape looked at her. He had never seen Ace like this before, as if his soul had been taken away.

"What did you see?" he asked as gently as possible.

"——Those people are all dead." With his mouth open, Ace let out a sigh that was almost too soft to be heard.

"It's not your fault, Ace."
