49. Yule Ball
Hogwarts

Selina flew on the Pitch. The seventh year was practicing with her new Beater in the poring rain. Her face was getting muddy, sweaty, and wet all at the same time. When she threw another target at him he missed.

"Come on, hit your target!"

"I'm tired."

"SELINA!!!!" A voice yelled, "You're late."

Selina's eyes widened and she flew down at once heading straight for the Great Hall. Distracted by her muddy and gross clothes she did not notice how slippery the floor was and slid into the Great Hall.

She stood up straight and said, "Um, Happy Yule Ball!"

99. Newspaper
Post-Hogwarts

Selina stormed through the bull pen of the Daily Prophet looking from desk to desk at her less than proactive reporters, "Come on, slackers. Get moving or I will make you all move. I can't write everything."

Then suddenly behind the glass door that had Perry White- Editor in Chief written on it a scream echoed out, "Great Caesar's ghost! Skylar! Those stories don't write themselves!"

She rolled her eyes and walked toward the stairs. There a glasses wearing, handsome reporter bumped into her and made all of her papers fall. He began to stutter, "Oh I'm sorry Miss Skylar."

64. Nap
Pre-Hogwarts

Jake Skylar lay sprawled out on his couch. He had just gotten home from an impromptu Quidditch Match at a press conference at the Ministry. All day he had been signing autographs with the rest of his team mates and the Harpies as well. Now all he wanted was to just nap after a long day of signings and a random Match.

But a little redheaded girl was not in the mood for her father to fall asleep on her. The little two year old Selina Skylar waddled over to her father and jumped onto his belly, "Dad-da! Play now!"

21. Veela
( Dedicated to SweetPea and meganelizabeth )
Post-Hogwarts


Rafe stood speechless at the sight of Christianna in the empty room dancing across the floor. She seemed, to him, to glide like an angel across the floor. Her eyes were so focused yet so soft while she danced. In his eyes she was simply stunning. Part of him wanted to call out and let her know that he was watching her, that he had always only had eyes for her, but it wasn't time.

He felt a hand on his shoulder and looked up. Selina, his mother, said softly, "Christianna huh?"

"She quells all of the anxious in me."

25. Sorting Hat
Hogwarts

"...and let the sorting begin!" The Headmaster echoed across the Great Hall. Selina Skylar, the little first year who was currently shaking in her shoes, began to hyperventilate. As each name was called Selina felt fainter and fainter. Finally a sound was produced that made Selina want to wet her pants, "Skylar, Selina!"

She sat on the bench and all sound went mute. For several minutes all she saw was people looking onward, but she could not hear a thing that hat was saying. UNTIL finally he broke through the wall of empty sound that had reached her ears, "GRYFFINDOR!"

66. Pace
( Dedicated to meganelizabeth )
Post-Hogwarts

Selina watched in amusement as Christopher James paced back and forth in the waiting room. While she watched him she bounced a little 6 month year old Rafe on her lap, "Oi, Chris sit down. You get like this every time. I'll think they'll both be fine."

"But we had a few more weeks until she was even due, Sel!" Chris said plopping down beside her.

Just then a nurse came out with a pink blanket and said, "Mr. James...? Congratulations, you have a baby girl."

Chris stood up awkwardly and grabbed the bundle of pink, "Hello beautiful, I'm your Daddy."

56. Fight
Pre-Hogwarts

"...death is complicated sweetheart," Jake Skylar cooed to his five year old with red ringlets. She simply looked from her father to the tombstone and tried to comprehend what he had just explained to her.

"Daddy I killed Danny, didn't I?" Selina said already knowing the answer.

"It was an accident," Jake stuttered. But it was too late. The fight was lost, Selina was already retreating into her shell. If she never looked hurt and played strong no one else would get hurt. Except of course one pair of piercing blue eyes holding the pain of her sister's death, Selina.

61. Kiss
Hogwarts

Selina was having a panic attack. He was leaning into her now and she could not turn back now. What if she was bad? What if he didn't like her? What if it got around that she was utter rubbish? Too many questions, too little time for the gap between their lips.

Just as she was about to squeak hold on he kissed her. She flinched into the kiss opening her eyes. Why were his eyes closed? Was she supposed to do something? Were his lips supposed to be this hot and soft?

Too many questions for a first kiss.

69. Slap
Hogwarts

She could taste the iron in her blood that was now swirling around in her mouth. Her blues eyes shot back up to the girl who was standing across from her with dark eyes piercing into her soul. Selina's hand traveled to her face and she could feel the burn of the five finger slap still fresh on her skin. This was a feeling that she had never experienced- pure and utter hatred.

The two had been at each others throats for ages and now with one slap all hell had broken lose. She knew that this was it... hate.

65. Ooze
Hogwarts

Selina wanted to gag. Nay, Selina wanted to throw up. This was perhaps the most revolting display that she had ever seen in her life. What amazed her most was many people aspired to have this happen to them. Not Selina, the whole sight and thought of it got her gag reflexes working. It was gross.

After having enough Selina turned around and started to leave. A voice sweetly inquired as to what was the matter. She spun around on her heel and said bluntly, "Professor, I'm really not keen on seeing a teenage mandrake ooze pus from their pimples."

(OOC. Not what you were all thinking at the end, huh?)

46. Dungeon
Hogwarts

Selina's shoulder hurt, no Selina's shoulder was throbbing. The cause of her current pain was none other than Ms. Violet Le Veela. She was put out because Selina had landed them in detention... again.

"...and you just had to go and hex him while we were in the Restricted Section! I mean seriously, are you daft? No really are you daft? Because I," smack, "am," smack, "done," smack, "GETTING DETENTION FOR YOU!" Smack, smack, smack, smack.

"OW! Cut it out Violet!" Selina snapped at her attacker.

"No!" she howled very loudly, "Not until we get out of the Dungeons... AGAIN!"

32. Common Room
Hogwarts

Selina absent mindedly moved her fingers through her fellow Gryffindor's curls. The two Gryffindors were relaxing into the Common Room couch and watching the fireplace flicker. A sigh escaped her lips, "Why does you hair do that?"

"Do what?" He asked tilting his head toward her.

"The curly thing. Every time I fix it, it gets all unruly again."

"I don't know," he shrugged, "It just does."

"Okay," Selina replied twirling her fingers in his hair.

He broke the silence asking, "Why? You don't like my hair?"

"No I do," she whispered, "It's very you, besides I like a challenge."

18. Whomping Willow
Post-Hogwarts

"Oww..." Selina groaned. Her head had been hurting her since she had attempted to hang upside down for a half an hour on a dare two days previous. She had to remind herself that she could not do that ever again, no matter how annoyed she got at her challenger. Because now her head hurt and she could not fix the pounding in her head.

She stumbled through her flat until she reached her bed. With a flop she fell upon it and muttered darkly under her breath, "My head hurts like I've been pounded on by the Whomping Willow."

67. Zap
Pre-Hogwarts

Selina around the house as she was chased by her father. Every time they would turn the corner of the house she would giggle wildly and unashamedly. She had never had so much fun in her life; Daddy was chasing her, she was winning.

However, Jake Skylar did not feel the same way. During his nap on the couch his six year old daughter decided to steal his wand and run around the house with it. He was currently trying to get it back, but she was a fast little thing...

ZAP!

"Daddy, why do you have an elephant nose?"

87. Angry
Hogwarts

"LOTHLORIEN!!!" Selina sang out loudly in the halls of Violet's room.

Both Violet and Elektra sat on Violet's bed and blinked a few times when Selina finished singing. It was awful. But Selina looked so proud of what she had just sang that her two friends felt awful saying anything to discourage her... talent?

Violet crossed her arms over her lap and said, "Well Sely... that was..."

"AWFUL!" Elektra blurted out laughing.

Violet slapped Elektra in the arm, "Elektra."

"What?!"

Then Selina asked sincerely, "Really that bad?"

The two girls exchanged looks and then said shortly without a pause, "Yes."

95. Snowball
Hogwarts

The fifth year ran through the snow with her red hair poking out from underneath her beanie. She was laughing and kept turning around to throw snowballs at her attacker. He finally picked her up from her middle and threw her over his shoulder.

"No fair, Gideon!" Selina yelled at the sixth year, "I'm shorter than you!"

He laughed, "This is your punishment missy."

Finally he found a mound of snow and threw her in, "Cheater..."

"Give me back my scarf, Skylar..."

She hugged the scarf close, "Nope, sir... I took it from you two years ago, its mine now."

79. Author's Choice- Lost
Post-Hogwarts

Selina walked into the Muggle clothing store slightly annoyed. Violet and Selina thought it would be wise to take a Muggle car and go for a drive out in the country. That had ended up in them getting lost, scared and needing a place to stay for the night. They should have asked for directions, but Violet was not comfortable asking homeless people.

Her eyes caught sight of what she was looking for and she picked up the pajamas- a sheer, lacy dress that made Selina blush very hard. On second thought maybe she could just sleep in her clothes.

88. Sweet Tooth
Post-Hogwarts

It was times like this that Selina really hated the Muggle World. When visiting friends who made a choice to live a Muggle existence she always found it difficult to deal with health issues via a Muggle doctor or hospital. Now she was here... sitting in something called a dentist's chair.

Her tooth broke when she chomped down on a bloody sucker. She was not a Healer. So her friends told her to come her and get fixed.

When the dentist came in he fiddled with her tooth, "You have quite the sweet tooth, don't you?" So she bit him.

77. Cheerful
Hogwarts

The fifth year had never felt such a surge of joy in her entire life. There was something so beautiful about the end of this term. Sure, now she was going onto her sixth year and some of her best friends were going to be seventh years and leaving, but nothing could bring down the pure and untouched joy she felt at this moment.

Christopher walked into the Great Hall and sat beside his "sister" at the closing feast, "What are you so cheerful about?"

Selina looked at him and grabbed his shoulders, "I don't have to take potions anymore."

83. Fearful
Hogwarts

Carrying the title of Gryffindor was a heavy burden. You were expected to be courageous, fearless, brave, witty and to an extent smart. Usually Selina Skylar was the epitome of these traits. She could face any challenge without batting an eyelash, she had the quickest tongue amongst all of her peers and she was brave and valiant.

There was one thing, though, were Selina was a coward. Her own feelings, what she felt inside was something she was terrified of. Whenever she felt that things were getting too close and personal she would flee to save herself. She was fearful.

30. Feast
Pre-Hogwarts

It was the annual International Quidditch League's Award Ceremony Feast to mark the end of the year's season. Numerous players were buzzing with anticipation to see who would get MVP of the year.

Finally, when the MVP was announced the entire room held their breath. The announcer said, "And it goes to... Skylar!"

As the Falcon Chaser stood up to head to stage for his award, a short little four year old in a pale blue dress ran past her father and jumped on the small stage. She took the trophy with glee, "MINE!"

"No Selina!" Sophie yelled, "It's Daddy's!"

7. CoMC
Hogwarts

The third year impatiently tapped on her leg as she had to listen to the stupid centaur go on and on about Divination, which he obviously had no idea the first thing about. Who in their right mind would even allow a creature to teach a class, of extreme importance to some, that he was unequipt to teach?

When the horse started to wrap up class, he asked if anyone had any questions.

The redhead rose her hand and cocked an eyebrow, "Shall we be expecting you in Care of Magical Creatures this week?"

...and that week she had detention.
