Great story. Can't wait for next chapter.
Please, please, please, dont include Hermione, Ginny in there. And dont make any potions work which might make it more tragic and dramatic.

Thanks for reading and reviewing. Funny thing, in my original outline I had Bellatrix taking a timed potion that would kill her when the umbilical cord was severed - she didn't want to revert to type.
