Amelia was 11 years old she had shoulder length dark brown hair and light brown eyes. She had just started her first year as she had walked into the great hall where she would be sorted into her house. As she sat with the hat on her head for a while she felt nervous as eyes began to look at her confused it was taking this long. They all wait patiently until the hat yelled out.

"HUFFLEPUFF!" Amelia walked over to the Hufflepuff table and sat there people patted her on the back when suddenly Professor McGonagall called out.

"Layla Wilde!" Everyone went silent and glared at Layla as she walked to the front Amelia was confused at this as she had never heard of Layla beforehand. Layla sat on the stool and again it took a while for it to decide but it eventually yelled out.

"HUFFLEPUFF!" She walked over to the table Amelia was sat at everyone glaring at her Amelia was just looking at her intrigued and when the feast began she turned to an older year asking.

"Who is she?" The older year turned to her in shock.

"That's Layla Wilde. Her entire family are werewolves, her father has killed multiple people, muggles and wizards alike, but they never brought him in" 

"Why?" 

"They couldn't prove it was him" he sighed. "Her coming here is not a good idea. No one likes the fact that she could kill everyone here" Amelia looked at before turning to look at Layla who was picking at the chicken on her plate. Layla looked at Amelia expecting Amelia to be glaring at her but she was actually smiling at her. Amelia gave her a wave Layla raised her eyebrow but raised her hand giving a small smile. When they were taken to their dormitories everyone went to their bedrooms but Layla who sat in front of the fire Amelia walked over and sat next to her. After a minute of silence Amelia stuck her hand out.

"Hi my names Amelia" Layla looked at her confused but shuck her hand saying.

"Names Layla" She looked around. "Look not to sound harsh but why are you talking to me? I mean you must of been told about my family" 

"Yeah I got told but you don't sound bad plus why should I believe everyone else when I could listen about it from you?" Layla looked surprised at her response. "So are you really a werewolf?" 

"Yeah I wasn't bitten or anything my mum and dad are werewolves so they passed that on" Amelia didn't look scared but she looked interested.

"Can you tell me about being a werewolf?" Layla smirked. But that's what they did they stayed up late talking about her and her family with Amelia telling Layla about herself and her family how she was from two muggle's. Over the months they became closer Amelia would always defend Layla whenever someone was bullying her and Layla did the same when someone bullied Amelia about having muggle parents. The main bully from this was Lucius Malfoy. Despite him being in his 5th year he didn't mind picking on them two with them being in the predicament they were. As the school years went by Layla introduced Amelia to Lupin, Layla's old family friend she had helped him with his werewolf side since he was bitten. He then introduced them to his friends, Lily, James, Sirius and Peter. Amelia would tell Layla that she didn't like Peter as he creeped her out the way he looked at her.  Amelia had separately become close friends with Severus despite the age difference due to the fact that Lily was friends with him as well.

In Amelia and Layla's 5th year Amelia took Layla to their dormitory and sat her down on the bed.

"Layla, look I need to tell you something"

"Amelia you can tell me anything what is it?"

"I love you Layla. I can't imagine my life without you" Layla was silent for a moment making Amelia think that she had ruined their friendship when Layla pulled Amelia into a passionate kiss.

"I thought you'd never say that"  They got even closer when they left school they stayed in touch with Lily who had married James but they had gone across the world doing what they always planned. They had also managed to stay in touch with their other friends despite being away for months at a time. From the first day they met they both shared a common interest and love for mythical creatures and had planned to go across the world looking for them and making a journal on how to care for the ones that schools did not teach it's students. This did mean they would be covered in scars from the more aggressive creatures. But it was only a few years into their expedition when things got really interesting. On a warm evening Layla waited till they had both eaten before she stood up and held Amelia's hands saying.

"Amelia, you've been with me through thick and thin no matter what you were there through my transformations and I was wondering...." She then kneeled on one knee asking. "Will you marry me?" Amelia jumped up and hugged Layla repeatedly saying yes. "There is one thing though" Amelia looked at her. "My parents said they wouldn't accept this marriage unless you became a werewolf. It's been a tradition in my family"  Amelia was worried at first but nodded.

"Okay if it's tradition I don't want to you to never talk to your family. Let's do this" A few years later they still travelled the world every now and again but they now had a small house in the woods where they could hunt in. Over the years they had each received scars and wounds but the worst one was Amelia's two main scars one that was three long claw marks across the left side of her face this was from a Hippogriff but her other one was the bite mark from Layla's werewolf form on the day she was turned.

On this day Amelia was clearing up in the house Layla had gone to the woods to hunt for their dinner when suddenly the door was blasted off it's hinges Amelia got her wand out but before she could cast a spell she heard someone yell.

"Stupefy" When Amelia woke up she was in a small cell with a chain around her neck. She tried pulling against this but it wouldn't work she had noticed that she had bruises and cuts on her body but she didn't want to get anymore so she fought even harder. Suddenly the door slammed open and Layla stood there relief on her face. Layla hugged Amelia before pulling on the chain. Layla pulled out her wand and pointed it halfway.

"Reducto" the chain snapped in half still leaving it wrapped around Amelia's neck. They ran through the halls when they exited the building they were surrounded by death eaters and Voldemort exited the crowd himself. He pulled out his wand and said.

"You two pose a threat to me and my ideals so neither of you will be leaving here alive" Before anyone could do anything other blasts were fired from Amelia and Layla's friends as they thought they would win Voldemort fired the killing curse towards Amelia but just as it was about to hit her Layla jumped in front of the blast. Amelia caught her wife as she slumped to the floor she tried shaking her but she would never wake up. Lupin and her other friends mourned with her and comforted each other. Amelia carried on adding to her and her wife's journal and would always were the chain around her neck until Voldemort, the man who took her true love away from her, was dead.

Years went by and Amelia had finished her and her wife's journal. She still lived in the wood cabin but she knew that she couldn't stay there any longer as it only reminded her of Layla. She laid in her bed just like she would normally does and tried to think of what she could do with her boring and empty day. That was when she heard a knock at her door. She wrapped a robe around her and went to the door upon opening it she saw a familiar face of Dumbledore. 

"Professor? what are you doing here?" He gently smiled to her.

"May I come in?" She moved out of the way and lead him to the living room they sat down and he began to talk. "I know that you have finished your and your wife's journal and I was wondering if you had any thing planned now?" She shuck her head.

"Layla and I were always wanting to have kids when we settled down but I don't think I could do that now without her" Amelia had to fight to not burst into tears thinking about her past wife. 

"Well I have a proposition for you" Amelia sat up willing to listen. "I would like to offer you a position as a animal caretaker. For all of the animal and creatures in the grounds and in the forbidden forest. You would be living on site and you and my game keeper would be working together in certain areas. However, as you seem to know the most about mythical creatures I would like to offer you a part-time job teaching about that subject" Amelia was happy to accept but one thing crossed her mind.

"I would love to but the issue I'm finding is my... well.... werewolf side" Dumbledore kindly smiled. 

"You do not need to worry about that you will be living on the edge of the forbidden forest so you may have your transformations there and as you have become well known the ministry cannot interfere with this unless proven that you are a threat to the children" Amelia smiled and nodded.

"Well then." She then look very eager. "When do I start?"
