Tears of a Raven and blood of a Snake
--
In the past…
Rain was pouring from the darkened, heavy skies, crying for the two broken souls as they stood in front of each other not far away from the majestic castle. Both they robes were wet, long hair clinging to they delicate faces, eyes full of sadness and sorrow, knowing that they destiny was about to tear them apart and they can't do nothing against it.
"Salazar…" the young black haired woman whispered, trying to stop her tone from shaking.
Hot tears mixing with the cold rain.
"I'm sorry Rowena, but Godric made it clear that I have no place here." The black haired man said in a soft tone which was only reserved for Ravenclaw, pulling one wet strain from black hair behind her ear, his hand stroking her check gently as he withdrew it.
"Bu…but…" she couldn't say what she wanted; the words couldn't leave her lips.
"Sssss…I'm sorry my love." Salazar whispered as his cold lips cowered her trembling ones in a soft kiss.
Rowena closed her eyes and leaned in the kiss, her cold body snuggling closer to the man she loved more then anything in the world. She wanted them to stay like this forever and to never be apart, but fate was a cruel Guardian. She didn't know what happened she only saw the duel between Salazar and Godric, the anger in her friend's eyes against the man he called his best friend, she tried to ask Helga about what was wrong, but she always pretended that she was busy.
Suddenly she felt the warmth disappear from her body, the arms which were wrapped around her left. Her blue eyes opened to look in her lover's green ones. Salazar was not the type of man you would call handsome like Godric with his deep brown eyes and strong features, Salazar's ebony black hair was longer then that of they friend, while Godric's hair only reached a little bit past his hair, Salazar's reached his shoulders, his skin was slightly sallow, his nose, a bit hooked, but she Rowena loved everything about him, mostly his deep emerald eyes.
"Salazar…" she said again, but the other held his hand up, his tender mark smirk on his lips as he searched for something inside his emerald robes.
"What are you looking for?" she asked curiously at which the other chuckled. Even if he could hide his feelings behind his usual superior and cold mask, he felt both his heart and soul breaking to peaces from the thought to be forever separated from his beautiful raven.
"You will find out soon, but first close your eyes." He said smirking at her playfully.
Rowena did as she was told and closed her eyes, waiting. Suddenly she let out a little gasp as she felt that something was places on her head. Opening her eyes one of her pale hands touched her head to feel a diadem there.
"I thought you would like it, look at it as a goodbye present from me." Salazar said and Rowena felt her tears pouring down again on her pale checks, mixing with the cold rain which was still falling around them.
"Thanks you…" she whispered softly as she gasped and pulled something out of her robe and put it in his hand.
"What is this?" he asked her confused as she gave him a little smile.
"A locket." She said.
"Thank you." He whispered as he kissed her one last time as he started walking away.
A cold wind started blowing through the land, rain falling harder.
"SALAZAR! PLEASE DON'T LEAVE I NEED YOU!" Rowena screamed in the storm, but he couldn't hear her anymore. With the diadem strongly held between her arms as she went to her knees, crying bitterly. "We need you…" she whispered in to the wind as one of her hands touched her belly.
Unknown to her stood a young red haired woman beside one of the big stones watching the broken woman crying in her sorrow.
"Ro…I'm sorry…" she whispered.

Seven months later…
Rowena Ravenclaw sat in her private chambers high up in her tower, a sleeping girl with ebony black hair sleeping in her arms.
"Awenna, I'm so sorry that…that I was to afraid to tell your father…if I would have been braver then your father would be here by us." She said as tears streamed down from her eyes.
Gryffindor Godric stood in front of Rowena's door, not knowing if he should dare to enter or not. He was so relieved when Salazar left, he had something on him which gave Godric a strange feeling, but since the second ho found out that Rowena was having a child the strange feeling returned and then when the baby was worn he felt guilt eating on his soul, then he immediately knew who the father was. Godric also noticed that the Slytherin students begun to distance themselves away from the other Houses, well except Ravenclaw, and started an open House Rivalry against his Gryffindors and there was also Rowena, she looked at them with such cold and death eyes which only filled with live when she was looking at her and Salazar's daughter.
"To what will all this lead us. I can only hope that I did the right thing, Salazar why did all this need to happen to us…" Godric said sighing as he walked away to find Helga who would bear they child in a five days. "Salazar, Rowena, Awenna I hope you can forgive me one day…" he whispered.
