Times were changing fast, and too quickly for anyone to adapt to. The entire British wizarding world was deep into war, even herself since coming back to England. Slowly and surely she was becoming more and more involved though her mother was not happy about it. Adrianna has joined the Order of the Phoenix, and she was presently and active member, she would go on missions and do what ever she could to help. She knew that when it came to the war she would also fight if she had not been killed when it came around. Silently she was walking down a over used and old path, up to the castle that stood proudly over the grounds. She had been asked to help defend the castle if anything was to happen, so was acting like a tutor for students in Charms, sometimes a teaching aide, though she did not attend meal most of time, Adrianna would take them down in her chambers. She had now been in the castle for about seven months now, this had become her home, like it had when she was a student all those years ago. Since then she had been through so much; not all of it had been good.

Slowly she made her way up the wading path, she could smell the air that held freshly cut grass, mixed with the salts from the lake. It was actually refreshing to Adrianna, a smile came to her lips, she was content for once in her life, this was a safety haven. Though it did make her thing about the family that had become lost to her. It did not hurt like it used to, when she would not be able to do anything, but she had been able to think about what she had with her husband and daughter, to think of all the happy times. It made her feel upset, of course it did, losing them both in such a tragic way, but it was not healthy to think of the what ifs and dwell upon the past. It was something she could not do, she would look to the future, in their memory; that was of course, if she lived to see the end of the war. Maybe there was something wrong with her when she was planning on what she would wear, she could be vain sometimes, though she hated to admit it. Things most certainly had changed.

She wore a long pencil skirt, and a purple blouse completed with a pair of black heels and a light summer jacket. Her hair was clipped back off her face. Her clothes were covering her marred, pallid skin with practiced ease. There was a fountain that flowed clear and soothingly, flowers that followed her as she walked, turning their massive, multicolored faces in her direction, in the courtyard, a faint smile curled her pale pink lips, reaching a hand down to brush a fingertip along a silky petal of a magnolia. It was nice to take a walk into nature. Her fingertips danced restlessly over the title of her book, attempting to find a solid place to sit that wouldn’t block her view of everything around her, this was one of the rare moments were she could enjoy all the hard work she had done over the past few months. It was tough teaching something to these students when they came to her for help, it took the edge off Professor Flitwick’s work. She knew that most of the students were in lessons, or so they should be. She settled on a simple bench in the shade of a tree, flowers surrounding her, moving towards her by instinct, she cracked the book, almost towards the end already. It was not the life she had planned for herself but it would do, her dark mahogany hair swayed in the wind. Something’s never changed her life, she had a somewhat normal childhood growing up where her love for reading had developed and sit was just the deal she had been dealt that involved losing the people she loved the most.

However lately she had been in deep thoughts, it would seem that she was getting lonely again and this feeling was getting deeper than she wanted it to. She let out a soft sigh as she thought about everything that had happened and things that she sure would happen in the near future, but she was not sure what that would be. Adrianna just wanted to be able to have her own happiness.
