“Listen Minerva…you must keep it a secret. Your father must not see or know.” The elder McGonagall woman spoke quietly as if deathly afraid of being overheard.

“But why Mother?” The young girl was confused, the feeling written clearly across her face. If she was special shouldn’t she show it? Wouldn’t Father be proud of her?

“Because its not allowed. And trouble might come from it. You must promise me you will keep it quiet.”

“I promise,” was all she could manage to say in response. Minerva wanted to fight the idea but the look upon her mother’s face, however calm it appeared, spoke volumes about how the conversation was over. She would keep this news from her father, lying if need be.

Maybe this new talent wasn’t so great.
