The Naming

Downstairs while she slumbered a conversation was going on.



“Now that she has had the baby it would be so easy to discover the father, I have such access to it, I could simply take a hair and scan the magical DNA, it would be a simple, simple little spell, then this mystery would go away. I just don’t understand why she won’t tell us, I don’t want to hurt her, I just want to know why this man wants nothing to do with his daughter, it seems so horrid to me. I can’t imagine walking away from my girlfriend if she was pregnant!,” ranted Harry



“Well that is good, because there is something I have been meaning to tell you,” quipped Ginny.



“What! Ginerva Weasley are you having premarital sex!!!!”



“Oi, Harry I’ll kill you if you don’t marry her, but I am going to kill you for knocking her up first.”



“PREGNANT!!! WHAT DO YOU MEAN?!?!!??”



“Whoa, chill guys it was a joke, now Harry pleas go proceed with your ranting.”



“Not Funny Gin, you just gave me a panic attack. Anyway, I don’t see why we should just live in the dark about who this baby’s father is, we wouldn’t be making him pay for the child or anything and you would think he would be okay with it geven how famous Hermione is and all.”



“Yea, man but what if he’s married or a criminal or something, or a death eater. I mean Hermione said she knew who it was and that bringing him into Carina’s life would be a bad idea. She does so much for us we should respect her wishes,” answered Ron.



“I know, I just want this man to experience her, I mean I have only known Carina for a few hours and already I adore her, she is simply beautiful, I would die for her already, why would someone not wish to be involved in her life?”



“Because, dear, some people are just not as noble as you are Harry,” pleaded Ginny, “You really don’t want to follow through on this; Hermione would be devastated, and horribly, horribly betrayed. I know we all want to know who he is, and I would love to kick his ass, quite royally; and maybe throw a bat boogey hex or two at him while I am at it, he hurt Hermione, but she is strong and she needs us to stand behind her decision for her to be okay.”



A defiant silence fell across the room then as each occupant sipped at their drinks. Above in the baby room Hermione was stirring. She looked over to her precious baby; she was filled with joy each time she looked upon her. It pained her that she couldn’t share in the joy with the baby’s father; he knew she existed, but so did everyone in the Wizarding World. She wondered what he would think if he knew she was his; she knew he hadn’t even considered it and that Carina’s arrival made him hate her more. It pained her because she still loved him every minute of everyday, she had never meant to get pregnant; and she had never meant to hurt him but here she was; staring at the best thing that had ever happened to her which, in a cruel twist of ironic fate, had triggered the worst thing that had ever happened to her.



She had vowed when she had learned of her pregnancy to make her baby’s life the best that it could be; she promised herself, and the then unborn baby within her, that she would lack for nothing, ever. That was what prompted the search for the perfect name; she needed everything to be right for this huge mistake. She picked her beautiful daughter up and clasped her to her chest as she sank back into sleep.



Hermione stood in her room on the day of Carina’s naming ceremony; this was it, her chance to seal her baby’s soul to the power and goodness of her name. For the ceremony Hermione was dressed like a goddess, a foam pink robe, that was more like a cloud wrap engulfed her, flowers adorned her hair. She could feel the magic of the day coursing through and around her. Turning, her glance fell upon her lovely daughter; on this day of days her she was, precious as ever.



Ginny Weasley came into the room and began to speak, “Dear, everyone is ready for you two, we need you to tell us where we are going, we have no idea; you have kept it such a secret. We are all in such anticipation, which roughly translates to; if you don’t pull us out of the dark soon I will hex you, dreadfully.”



“Oh Ginny, I have to keep it a secret it is all part of the ceremony; there has to be an element of mystery in it.”



The two women scooped up Carina, who at one month old was a beautifully healthy baby, and quite literally floated down the stairs of Hermione’s manor. The guests, who included; Harry, Ron, Luna,Molly, Arthur, Bill, and Fleur. Hermione indicated for them to follow her out through the foyer and into the rear gardens of the manor. The party gathered around the portkey in Hermione’s hand.



“I will be apparating, because it is better for Carina, but this should send you where you need to go.” and with that Hermione cracked out of existence.



“Well,” said Harry, “I guess we better all grab on we wouldn’t want to get left behind.”



When they arrived at their location they were amazed, all around them floated fairies, with dainty gossamer wings. The forrest that they were in literally hummed with sound of magic. The intermitent sound of birds could be heard through the trees and a faint sunlight danced across the clearing. In the very center was an ivy enshroud cauldron, with individual piles at the North, South, East, and West of the cauldron. North was a bed of blood Red Roses, South, a miniature ship; Easy a scroll, covered in writing; and West a pulsating replica of the constellation Carina.

“Hello, if you would each take your place, we can begin; Harry and Ginny, if you will come the the Western Point; Bill and Fleur, the Northern Point; Molly and Arthur the Eastern; and Ron and Luna, the Southern. I have asked you eight to be Carina’s godparents, the pile in front of you represents the part of Carina that you will be god parent to. I picked the pairs because of your connections, Bill, Fleur, Molly and Arthur, you are married which intensifies your connection. Harry and Ginny, you might as well be married; Ron and Luna, your friendship is just as strong and so you have been paired this way. Harry and Ginny you are Carina’s main godparents, I picked you to be the godparents over Carina’s first name; the sky portion. You will always feel pulled to keep her at her studies and to encourage her to succeed in academic and professional pursuits. Ron and Luna, you are her other main godparents, you are also the godparents over her first name; only the sea portion of it. You will always feel a pull to push her to try new things, create new spells, to pursue new avenues of thought. You will be able to aide her when she wishes to take control over the elements. Molly and Arthur you are the godparents over her middle name, you will feel a particular pull to her soul, you will do anything to make her happy and will always encourage her stubborn intelligence, she will never lack an ally in you. Bill and Fleur, you are the god parents over her last name, Rose. Fleur you will help to guide her into her blossoming beauty, she will always feel comfortable coming to you about love and her passions. You will be responsible for keeping her pure and lovely. I will always feel the pull to every element of her, because I am her mother. The other part of this ceremony is you will be able to feel when Carina is hurt and when she is happy, the feeling will be stronger if the emotion falls under what portion of her being you are the godparent to. If, god forbid, she is ever in danger you will know, and will be instantly drawn to her side to help her; even when she is at Hogwarts, this spell is more powerful than any wards and can never be broken. Do you understand?”



“Wow, Hermione, this is amazingly advanced magic, you really are brilliant, truly, truly brilliant.,” breathed Bill.



The party moved to their spots and joined hands, Hermione moved to the center of the circle.



She began to chant:



LATIN OF

GODS WE CALL ON YOU TO WELCOME THIS CHILD INTO YOUR PROTECTION. WE COME TO YOU PURE OF HEART AND OF MIND TO OFFER THIS CHILD TO YOU. WE ASK YOU TO PROTECT HER AND WE PREPARE THIS CEREMONY FOR YOU



She motioned for everyone to join hands around the circle, herself, and Carina. Hermione looked up to the sky holding Carina above her head. A chanted erupted in the heads of the godparents.



Harry and Ginny came first, “IN LATIN Oh gods welcome into this child the powers of the sky. Let her find solace in her intellect. Guide her through her mind and let the haze’s rise from before her eyes. See in her the potential to succeed and foster it forever; So mote it be.”



Then Ron and Luna, “ Oh gods we now call you to sink into this child the power of the sea. Let her have the strength that she one so pure of mind and heart deserves. Let her be as great as she can be and aide her in her pursuits. So mote it be



The Molly and Arthur, “Oh gods, we ask as well to bless this child’s heart and soul. Fill her life with joy and happiness. Let her be just and kind and swift to defend the meek. Know that we will be here to be your earthly vessels in our mission to aide this child and do with her the best you can, So mote it be.



Then Bill and Fleur, “Oh gods, bless her face and visage. Let her love with all her heart and be as beautiful as her insides; we will guide her in her quest for purity. Allow us and her the strength to contiue everyday. So Mote it be.”





They all joined together to chant the last part, “We vow to love, protect, and care for her everyday of our lives. Fill her soul with magic and with purity, with strength and happiness, with love and and intellect. Come into her soul, find a home within it. So Mote it Be.”

Carina shot into the air spinning the constillation rose into the air, exploding; it rammed full force into Carina and dissapeared into her skin. Next rose the boat burning madly it scooped up Carina as Hermione screeched and then suddenly it was gone too. Then rose the scrolls, unfurling and wrapping Carina in them, they melted into her skin as the roses rose to caress her face and skin. They floated around and around her till they too sunk into her body. Carina came floating down into her mothers arms and everyone let out a sigh of happiness. It was done Carina’s name was sealed to her being, forever.
