Chapter 1: Henrietta
Chapter 2 Chapter 3 Chapter 4 Chapter 5 Chapter 6 Chapter 7
Fandom: The Chronicles of Chrestomanci
Pairings: Henrietta/Bernard, Conrad/Christopher (in subsequent chapters)
Rating: PG-13
Word count: 4100
Summary: I had been on a walk with Flavian, when Bernard and I were both new. We had run into a salamander, and it had ended with me needing sixteen stitches and Bernard unable to sit down for a week. Christopher did warn me—"I shouldn't go if I were you, Hester; hiking is not one of the mandatory subjects"—but I'd trusted my previous experiences with teachers more than I'd trusted Christopher; and besides, my name isn't Hester.
Christopher and the young enchanters go to the circus. Conrad and Flavian go for a walk in the forest. Things go very wrong.
Note: This chapter is narrated by Henrietta, who if she's not an original character might as well be, since all we know about her from canon is a) her name and b) that she was a student at the castle at the same time as Christopher and Conrad. I hope you like her.
Eternal gratitude to:
murmbeetle. She puts up with me so the rest of you don't have to!
