Cassidy's POV:
The next morning, I woke up under the blankets of my own bed. I groggily looked around and realized Harry wasn't there. He must've woken up early...
Stretching my arms, I sat up in the bed. I was still in my big coat, scarf, and jeans. I looked around the room and was reminded of what life was like when I was expelled from Hogwarts. I got to wake up every morning and spend time with my dad, which I always enjoyed seeing as I grew up as an orphan.
However, as I looked around the room, I wasn't crying like I did last night. I was remembering the good moments that happened in this room. Until something had caught my eye.
I went over to my bookshelf and saw a book that I don't ever remember placing there. I carefully took hold of it, noticing how it was brand new and not as dusty as the others.
Looking at the cover, I let out a small gasp. There, one the cover, read;
Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone
I opened the book and saw a written message in a familiar slanted script.
I found Miss Rowling and may have given her some of my ideas for a good book series. I do wish the best of luck to you and the trio, Cassidy.
Dumbledore
Of course, I thought to myself. The first book was published in 1997...this year. Letting out a small laugh at how smart this man was, I put the book back onto the shelf.
My mind then wandered to last night. I tried thinking back to when my memory blanked. I had been so furious and scared, that I didn't really have control over my powers. It was like the phoenix powers had taken in my deepest desires and did whatever they wanted.
I hated not being in control of my powers. I could have really hurt someone, even if it was Lucius. I didn't want to have a person's life on my hands. And who knows, maybe I'll have to kill someone eventually with this new title as The Phoenix for Apollo or whatever shit I signed up for but I was only sixteen- almost seventeen- I didn't want to kill anyone.
Before I could think anymore about it, the door burst open and I found a panting Hermione and Ron.
"Where's Harry?" Hermione breathed out.
Raising an eyebrow I told her that he was probably in my Dad's old room. They both left but I went to the bathroom, not really wanting to go over there. I cleaned up, washed my face, and brushed my teeth before going back to my room and looking at my wall of pictures.

FanfictieAs far as she was concerned, there was nothing special about Cassidy Winters. She's simply a girl who drinks far too much coffee than she would like to admit and reads books to escape her life as an unwanted orphan. Then, when she appears in a world...
