» OVERALL HISTORY:

Vincent Rousseau is a pureblood wizard who was born and raised in Belgium. His father worked very high up in the Ministry of Magic in France, and up until he met Isabel, he had always assumed he would take his place when his father passed. When Vincent was 28, he met Isabel. The woman had taken a vacation with her family, she was 26, and had never been out of England. She immediately fell in love with Belgium and Paris and the Eiffel Tower. However, those weren't the only things she fell in love with. That very same trip she met Vincent. Needless to say, it wasn't love at first sight, or even first conversation. The two of them were at eachother's throats, disaggreeing on virtually everything. However, by the end of the trip, the two of them had worked out their differences. It only took a month to become civil towards eachother, and once Isabel left. They kept in touch. Three months later, Vincent came to England and him and Isabel met for lunch. They spent the next five days together, they were in love. They had a solid relationship for the next four years, with Vincent moving to England to live with Isabel. And on that fourth year, Vincent proposed and the two were married shortly after.

Both Vincent and Isabel were heavily involved with the death eaters, they were no where near the Dark Lord's favorite, but they were dedicated followers. The two of them are now ministry workers, having never been caught as death eaters.

Two years after their marriage, Isabel was with child. Nine months later, their was a little baby boy in the Rousseau family. They named him Carter, after Isabel's late father. Two years after that, Leah was born. Leah's childhood was rough. Her parents were hardly ever around, it was always Carter, Leah and the nanny. In her younger yeers, Leah supposed it was only because her parents were busy with work. However, as she grew older, theories began to form in Leah's head, theories of her parents never really wanting Carter and herself. Leah called them theories, but deep inside of her she knew her parents had left them, and that they would never come back. Periodically, Isabel and Vincent would stop by and replenish their wardrobes, make sure the nanny was doing her job and be off again. Isabel and Leah were travelling, and never once thought of returning to their children, the nanny was doing a fine job.

When Leah was six, she began to show signs of magic, it was little things here and there, like turning on and off the TV, messing with the electricity. When she was angry though, she could destroy the house. It was the veela in her. While she wouldn't transform into those hideous bird-like creatures, she could turn the house inside out if she was angry enough. Once, when she was seven, she and her brother had been fighting, and Leah was angry, she broke all of the lightbulbs in the room. Leah was forced into picking up every tiny piece of glass in the room after she had calmed down.

When Leah was eight, and Carter ten. It was in the middle of January, and it was snowing, hard. Vince walked through the door, empty handed, and without Isabel. Before Leah and Carter had time to react, the nanny was in the doorway, yelling over her shoulder for the kids to go to the other room. Leah and Carter scurried off, listening through the door to the not so private conversation. They could barely make out the full conversation, but they heard that their mother had been sent to Azkaban. It was all over the news, but the nanny had been filtering it, making sure the children never caught a glimpse of their mothers face on the cover, and the word "AZKABAN" in the headline.

Isabel and Vince had been in Romania, where they ran into some old Death Eater friends. Vince turned in for the night, but Isabel had stayed out with her old friends. They came across a witch and a muggle man. Sticking to their old ways, the death eaters were against this. After exchanging a few short words in conversation, the night ended badly. One of the old death eaters fired the Cruciatus curse at the muggle, and unable to resist, Isabel and the other death eater joined in on the fun, not thinking about their consequences. Finally, they got carried away, and Isabel shot a killing curse at the muggle, the witch tried her hardest to protect him, cursing at Isabel in a foreign language. It was too late, and the muggle was dead. Truthfully, the situation wouldn't have gotten hand if Isabel and the two death eaters hadn't been drunk out of their minds. Needless to say, the three former death eaters weren't smart enough to flee the premises, and let the witch get away. Isabel was sent back to England to await her trial, and Vince was informed by owl of the event. Isabel was sent to Azkaban for life, because of her murder that evening, and all the others she was responsible for during her time as a follower of the Dark Lord.

From that point on, Vince stayed at home with the kids. He saw both of his children off to Hogwarts each year, and became a good father. When Carter was eleven, he was shipped off to Hogwarts, and Leah only saw him during the summer. But two years after that, Leah recieved her letter, and she too would be off to Hogwarts. It came to no one as a surprise that both Rousseau siblings had been sorted into Slytherin. School came easily to Leah, she had a natural talent for learning, and for the next six years, she didn't have to try to hard to grasph the concepts of the magical world.
