"I don't know how much longer I can do this," Seraphina confessed as she stood in front of Albus Dumbledore. A few weeks after Seraphina and Sirius's wedding she managed to set up a meeting with the headmaster. "I can't continue living in a place where Voldemort has direct access to my daughter. I can't continue keeping her existence a secret from Sirius."

"When you agreed to go on this mission, I promised you that it was your decision when to end it," Dumbledore said calmly. "I would not fault you if that time has finally come."

"Each day I wake up hoping this will all be over soon," Seraphina said quietly. "Or that this is all just a terrible nightmare. But leaving is not easy at this time. Tom tries to watch my every move like a hawk. He's growing more paranoid in his search for the one prophesied to destroy him and more violent in his pursuit of victory. If I run now, I fear he will hunt down and kill everyone I care for."

"There are ways to keep them safe," Dumbledore assured her.

"And live the remainder of their lives in hiding," Seraphina finished. "That is not the life I want for them." Kicking a nearby rock, she continued, "I am doing my part to bring an end to this war. But at this moment it feels like all is for nothing because we're not closer to defeating Voldemort. Tom is not growing weaker, only stronger. The Ministry is failing to fight against him and the Order is all in hiding and greatly outnumbered. Is there any actual plan to defeat him-"

Seraphina winced when a sudden pain shot through her arm. The familiar burn filled her with dread since nothing good ever came out of it. "What is it?" Dumbledore questioned, noticing her change of demeanour.

"I am being summoned," Seraphina explained, jaw tight as she waved her wand around herself, causing her regular black coat to transform into the black death eater robes. "I will do what I can to minimise the damage of whatever destruction is being caused at this very moment."

"Be careful, Seraphina," Dumbledore warned her. "If it is true and you're being watched, you must be cautious. Do not contact me unless it is absolutely necessary and don't take unnecessary risk such as-"

"Visiting Sirius or my family," Seraphina concluded sadly, knowing perfectly well where he was getting at. Perhaps it was for the best now. If she got sloppy, the lives of everyone she cared for would be at stake. "I will do what I can to keep my cover. Now I must go."

Pointing her wand towards herself, the silver mask of a Death Eater appeared, concealing her features from view. Pulling up the hood of her cloak, Seraphina only gave Dumbledore a quick nod before she disapparated away. Due to the magic concealed within the Dark Mark she soon found herself amidst a battle being fought between Death Eaters and Aurors. Seraphina's blood ran cold when she recognised her whereabouts: Charing Cross Road...
