Dante looked at the letter in her hand, so it was true she never could go back. Silent tears rolled down her face as she sank to the ground her body shaking uncontrollably from the sobs deep within her soul. It wasn't right it wasn't fair. The tears came in two steady streams now she could barely breath for her choked sobs blocked all air.

Claira was walking past the owlery, minding her own business, thinking about things that were troubleing her, when she heard some sobs.
Claira always liked to help, but didn't exactly want to intrude on anyones personal moments, so she was unsure whether to go into the owlery or not, finally deciding what to do, she quietly walked into the owlery.
Once entering she saw a girl who she had reconized, and forced a smile upon her face, trying to comfort her, "What is wrong? Can I help?" she said, taking a seat beside the girl, and putting her arm around her, "Its' OK." she said, although she wasn't sure if it actually was OK.

Persephone had come to the owlery to deliver a letter. It wouldn't go to her home, she didn't really have one, and her parents were no longer a live. It was one to her twin in Gryffindor, and this seemed to be an easy way to stay connected and not intrude in her life.
She walked up there, hoping to use her sister's owl, and when she reached there she heard crying. It sounded familiar almost as if she had heard it before, and she searched her mind trying to find who the sobs belonged to.
I know I've heard that crying before...so who does it belong too?
She closed her eyes for a moment searching the recent past. It couldn't have been that long ago that she had heard those same tears and sobs.
Dante!
She rushed through the owlery trying to find the girl. When she did her heart sunk. She was crying up here. Something was making her cry, and she feared it was the same something that had made her cry when she was in the graveyard.
"Dante..." a whisper escaped her lips as she looked down at her friend. She sat down by her and hugged her.

Dante looked up at the two people in the room, she knew both of them from her past. "I-its my parents they're dead, I really can never go back."

Claira saw Perseohone come into the room, she didn't seem to notice her, she was to determined to help her friend she guessed.
When Dante spoke, Clairas' mouth dropped, she did not know what to say, her eyes began to water. She felt so bad for this girl who she barely knew, the feeling when she found out about her parents crept inside her, and she nearly puked.
"I am so sorry." Claira managed to say, "This is so terrible! Why do these things happen to people who least deserve it?! How can this happen, how can all these things happen?!" Claira yelled, fury growing inside of her, she was sick and tired of all the tragic things that surrounded her.
Realizing this was just not the time to go into a rant, Claira hugged Dante, offering her shoulder to cry on, her eyes swollen and red, she was starting to shake wildly, but she had to be strong for Dante.
"They will let you live here, you do still have a home... I know it will never be nearly the same as your own, and that I can't say it will get better, because you can't bring people back from the dead, but soon enough things will get better, even if it doesn't seem like it, I know it will." Claira said this, hardly believing her own words, it didn't seem her life would ever get better, but she had decided that she wanted to see if it would.

Persephone hugged her friend tight. She had feared this would happen to Dante. She had known the odds and had been so afraid to tell them to Dante. She felt her pain, but she had grown up her whole life alone with no parents. It was how it had always been, and then she had realized that she was hurt so bad that nothing could heal it. Her parents had died when she was young, she had never known them, and it was close to the same hurt Dante was feeling now.
"Shhh...It's ok. I promise it get's better, and you know I'd never lie to you. Shhh...at least you know what happened...I promise it gets better."
She kept repeating herself over and over again. She didn't know what else to say, but she wanted Dante to know that she cared for her, and would be her friend through this. She would always stand by her. She would help play a part in the family she was sure to have here. The Ravenclaws and other friends she had were her family now.

"There's really no point in it any more, I've been searching forever to see if I could go back, I don't even remeber there faces, i-its not fair!" She dug her face in the shoulder offered to her, as the envelope fell from her hand a picture fell out. She picked it up there was a a man and woman and between them a small child barely two. Then there was a hand written letter.
My Dearest Child,
If you are reading this we are long since passed, I am sorry we couldn't be with you, but it is immpossible as we are hunted. No doubt you can't remember your past, this is because you never really had one at the age of two you were given to a foster family. But we do love you.
With Love, Your Parents Dante stared at the letter her tears flowing so freely now it was as though a dam had broke inside of her, the letter had no emotion, yet they clamed to love her, none of this made sense. Once again sobs raked her body this was just to much. "It's to hard this is just to hard, I can't take this anymore." She got out between sobs.

"Dante, even if you don't think you can remember them you can. They left an impression on your very soul. No matter how far away they are, they're always with you. Dante, trust me on this. You know that I know how you feel. We both have lost are parents, and I might have a way to let you see them and a little of your past."
It was a long shot, Persephone knew, but hadn't it been how she had seen her parents? Before she'd looked into her pensive she hadn't been able to recall much about her own mother, and nothing about her father. Perhaps Dante's memories would show up in the pensive just as Sephe's had.

"A little of my past I'm not sure I want to they don't even sound like they want me, look at this letter." She handed the note to Persephone. Her tears starting to slow.,

Persephone read and re-read the letter. There was deffinetly coldness in there. It was almost as if the person, or people, writing it had felt obliged to do so, but felt nothing for the reader. It was a distant letter, and she could now understand Dante's cold words towards her parents.
"I think...perhaps your right on that..."
She wondered how parents could be so cold to their own child, but she knew that many parents were. It shouldn't have come as a shock to her, but it did...and probably always would.
"I'm sorry Dante..."

"truthfluy I'm only upset to know that they really didn't want me, it hurts to find out that the people whom you've searched for, for so long wanted nothing to do with you." Dante sighed. "Its upsetting that they're dead that I'll never know......" Dante started to cry again .

Persephone hugged her again. She didn't want to see Dante hurting, not when she knew how much pain a person went through. It burned a whole so deep inside of you, and after awhile it was filled with hate and resentment for the ones who hurt you.
"Shh. They may have loved you, they might not have. The important thing is, that you are here, and your with us, with people who care for you."

"I know its just hard to think that they really had a reason for getting rid of me, and if they did I'll never know, they said they were hunted but by who...I've gotta find out." Dante said stopping her tears.

"Yeah, you do, but when your ready. Remember that what you find out might change everything, it could open up more hurts than you ever thought it could."
She looked sadly at Dante, afraid that what she found might tear her apart. She had seen so many good witches and wizards look back into their past to find that something horrible lurked there. They hadn't been able to take it.

"I can it I have to find out what or who was hunting them why this thing was so bad that they had to throw me away because of it," Dante looked into her friends worried eyes. " If I don't do this it WILL tear me apart I have to know why Persephone its theonly way I can let this go." She smiled at her friend rying to get the point across.
