NARCISSA MALFOY: Louisa? Come with me, he’s ready.

(They descend the marble steps and enter the dining room where the Death Eaters are gathered. She sees her uncle and wants to hug him but knows better.)

LORD VOLDEMORT: Thank you Narcissa. Come my child, sit.

(LOUISA SNAPE sits at the place next to her father.)

LORD VOLDEMORT: Plans I trust are going well?

SEVERUS SNAPE: As can be expected My Lord

LUCIUS MALFOY: Indeed, my my Lord

LORD VOLDEMORT: As you all know our young Louisa Snape has finished Hogwarts. (mutters go around the room) It is my wish that she continues her education with the Auror Office.

PIUS THICKNESSE: My Lord?

LORD VOLDEMORT: Your best subject Louisa?

LOUISA SNAPE: Defence against the Dark Arts My Lord.

LORD VOLDEMORT: Exactly and a highly good one at that.

BELLATRIX LESTRANGE: Defence yeah right.

SEVERUS SNAPE: Top of the class My Lord

LORD VOLDEMORT: Pius see to it that she is trained as an Auror, I want people on all levels.

PIUS THICKNESSE: Of course, My Lord. I am sure she has your intelligence to proceed. Kingsley will be more than happy to take her on.
