Headmistress l Missing presumed dead

(Andromeda Fiorelli has permission to post in this thread.)

Together they whirled through air and space, the familiar yank behind Cecily's bellybutton causing shimmies of nausea to whirl around her stomach. She swallowed a groan as they landed in the tall grasses. They were facing the marshes, tall green grasses, murky waters and mossy trees of her grandfather's swamp. "Well we're here Miss Fiorelli."

Andy swayed for all of two seconds, she was so used to transporting this way she had done it ever since she was young enough to crawl. It was the sight that awaited her that left her confused. Why would her headmistress bring her to a swamp or at least a place that resembled one. She tried to think of all the possibilities of what detention in a swamp entailed but came up clean. She had quite literally come up against a brick wall concerning this particular detention but figured her headmistress just simply wouldn't be her if it had been an ordinary session.
"Where too now Miss? or should I be saying what now Miss?" she attempted to keep the mood as light as possible but the view all around her didn't give her much choice.

Bane Wright stood arms akimbo on his front porch. He responded to the young witch's words. "You'll be spending the day with me, Miss Fiorelli," he called. He was a tall, thin man with a rough face and even rougher personality. He didn't mix words or do well around people due to his long years alone.

Andy swivelled her head around to see an elderly man standing on the porch of a house. Why would she be spending the day with him? Andy opened and closed her mouth a few times, not sure she understood this at all. Where exactly was she and who exactly was this man? There was something distinctly familiar about the feeling she was having though, she knew she had felt it recently enough and the time in the forest when she came face to face with the Slytherin fifth year came to mind. Why this was so she didn't know, but none of this made sense.

"I don't understand" she looked questioningly at her headmistress and then back at the man.

Bane didn't allow Cecily to speak to her charge. "Off with you now. Your bundles waiting for you along the path." He shooed her along with his hand. Cecily looked from him to Andromeda then nodded and walked along the path. She looked over her shoulder and called out, "You'll be fine! I'll be back at nightfall."

Bane shook his head. "Well come along now. You'll need some food in your gullet before we begin." He didn't wait for her to follow him into the house. The door stood ajar. His house was old and rustic though sturdily built. It had one floor and appeared to be much like a log cabin with a wraparound front porch. An old swing hung from the porch rafters in a corner. Inside the house the floors were hardwood, wide planks. A throw rug was tossed here or there.

Andy felt two things when her headmistress began to walk away, sheer panic for not explaining any of this to her and a very strange sense of calm. The first she knew was normal, the second she couldn't fathom at all. She wanted to run after her but taking a deep breath decided she had better do as she was asked. Her Gryffindor courage ran deep but more so her hunger as he had mentioned food.

Looking at the open door Andy tentatively entered, following him across the wooden floors that seemed to creak with every step she took as if announcing to all and sundry that she was here.
He seemed to know her name but she hadn't a clue who he was, she wanted to ask but she had been brought up to speak only when spoken to regarding her elders and for some reason she thought that was truer now than any other time. She stood motionless in the room wondering what to do next.

Bane was at the old fashioned pot bellied stove stirring something that smelled heavenly in a pan. He glanced at her with dark brown eyes then gestured with the wooden spoon he held. "Have a seat. It'll be ready in a minute." The kitchen was wild open and spacious with a small table that had once been painted white but was now distressed and a few chairs.

A few moments later Bane turned and began loading the table up. They each had a place serving; earthenware plate, mug, fork, spoon, butter knife. Breakfast in his house was an easy affair; hash browns, oatmeal, scrambled eggs with wild onions and a big pitcher of milk. A little pot with spoon held sugar.

"Ladies first," Bane said as he took a seat.

Andy smiled at the man but would have preferred to have been of some help. She took a seat though enjoying the aroma that filled the small kitchen. Still she couldn't shake the strange feeling of familiarity about him that and a keen weariness as if she should be on her guard. But her headmistress she knew would not have brought her anywhere that was not save, she simply knew she wouldn't.

Andy smiled as he said 'Ladies first' but only helped herself to small portions of each, not wanting to appear greedy though the smell was delicious and the food looked wonderful. She poured herself a glass of milk then still holding it looked at the man, for the first time wondering if he were a muggle or a wizard.
"Would you like some milk as well sir?"

Polite girl. Bane shook his head, his dark blonde hair falling onto his forehead. "No thank you." His gruff voice had softened imperceptibly. He'd bartered for a jug of the stuff yesterday at the farmers market. He didn't drink milk; couldn't stomach the stuff. Not after...Gruffly he cleared his throat and busied his hands by serving himself.

He ate in silence for a while before he spoke again. "You seem to be taking this change of scenery in stride."

Andy put the jug down and proceeded to eat, the silence disturbed her a bit as she was so used to the ruckus at the Gryffindor table and the crazy riotous goings on back home in Ireland. Even when she had meals with Essie the two kept up a constant conversation. This was different but it was also nice. It gave her mind time to adjust and try to figure things out a little. Eventually the man spoke to her again. Andy finished chewing some of the delicious hash browns, then swallowing slowly she waited a moment before answering him. How could she explain any of it?
It wasn't necessarily that she was taking the change in her stride, she felt more as if she were in a home away from home. Perhaps it was the farmers upbringing she had, she really couldn't figure it out but the more time she was in his company, she felt more at ease.

The ridiculous analogy of being a cub back in a den had flitted briefly through her mind.
"I guess I've had to deal with change more than most. I learn to adapt pretty fast" she picked up her glass of milk and drank it slowly, carefully putting it down again she turned to look at him.
"Sir, do you mind me asking who you are?" she really hoped she wasn't being rude but if she was going to be here until dark and eat the mans food, surely she should know?

Bane nodded and tended to his meal as she spoke. "I am Bane Wright and Cecily is my granddaughter." He gave her a moment to digest this bit of news before speaking again. "And you are here to help me tend to my crops. For your detention," his mouth jerked a bit at the corner, then he went back to eating his breakfast.

Andy put her fork and knive down gently as the man began to speak, once he told her his connection with the headmistress she couldn't but feel a sense of utter calm come over her. She also couldn't help but smile. The first incidence that Andy had ever received a detention had been back in first year for sneaking out and flying late at night, Professor King had served her detention with the groundskeeper Willie. She had spent the day doing some serious hard manual labour but had loved every minute of it. Andy had grown up on a farm and animal sanctuary, everyone chipped in and everyone had to pull their weight, so she was no stranger to hard work. In fact she thrived on it, her own grandfather had often said it was a balm for the soul.

Well she may not have a soul anymore but the peace that doing a decent days hard work would bring, was something she needed badly. She felt very grateful indeed to her headmistress to for cooping her up in a dark room. Andy smiled at the man as she picked up her knive and fork once more.
"It's a pleasure to meet you Mr. Wright" she looked at him for a moment wondering why she still had such a wierd feeling around him but now put it down to perhaps familiarity. Knowing his daughter perhaps had led to this feeling. She let the quietness surround her once more, it was nice after the hustle and bustle of the school. Andy wondered if she could get used to it.

Bane finished his meal after a few more moments. He never really lingered over his meals unless it was the odd Sunday when he got a newspaper in town. He didn't trust muggle post and didn't care for owls either, although he did send the blasted bird of his granddaughters back with news of his home front. He enjoyed her letters and treasured anything she told him of his long lost daughter.

He waited patiently until she was done, not wanting to hurry her meal. Cecily had told him of the meals they were used to back at the castle and had made sure there was plenty to eat as it would be a hard day outside in the sun. Although it wasn't very hot out it was unseasonably warm. He had gloves for the both of them and hats too.

"We haven't many hours of sunlight for our day, it's why I asked Cecily to bring you so early. A storm should be rumbling through here well before nightfall so we'd best get on with our day." He rose and cleared away his dishes by hand. He set the smaller pair of gloves and wide brimmed grey hat on the table by her. His own faded brown hat he sat on his head and his gloves were slid into his back pocket.

"Are you ready?"

Andy picked up the hat and gloves and quietly donned them.
"I'm ready sir, don't you want me to clean up here first?" she didn't like leaving a mess and certainly didn't think he had a house elf, it seemed highly unlikely in this remote cabin. She pulled the gloves on a bit tighter wondering what type of crops they would be working with and a smile appeared on her face. Her grandfather used to take her out to the fields when she had been younger too, her uncle Patrick used to come down and tease her about the different crops and herbs that were planted. Confusing her with muggle and magical ones until she finally had gone away and asked her father for a book on magical plants so she would never be fooled by Patrick again. The thought of him now made a lump form in her throat but she merely stiffened herself till she was erect and waited further instruction.

Bane fixed the girl with a gimlet stare with his brown eyes. Then he shook his head once. "No, thank you. Cecily will get it when she comes back in. Part of today's agreement," he grinned. It was a rusty half smile. His boots were loud in the quiet room on the wooden floor.

He held open the door for her, remnants of the days when he was a gentleman still long ingrained in his makeup, no matter his many years as a shut in. Once they were outside he led the way down a long wooded path that was over grown with many weeds. It had deep ruts in some areas and muddy spots in others. It went on for nearly an acre before it detoured abruptly into a clearing where there was a sea of wildflowers.

Bane stopped and gestured toward to medium sized woven baskets with handles. "Take one and fill it to the brim with those plants there, roots and all," he pointed toward the plants in question. They were purple, curled over and much resembled a monks hood. He watched her face for signs to see if she recognized just what his crop was.
