Chapter 1: Meeting with McGonagall

A few weeks after the war was over, Voldemort killed, Hogwarts rebuilt, and with everyone getting their lives back on track finally, Minerva McGonagall, the new Headmistress of Hogwarts, was currently pacing her office in wait of her mysterious visitor. She had received a letter the day before with the most shocking news. She replied back hastily, asking that the writer come to Hogwarts as soon as possible, for there were matters of importance to discuss.

Minerva received a response back early that very morning saying, "I shall floo in at promptly 4 p.m. Thank you, K. Edwards."

Needless to say, McGonagall was a little anxious about the meeting, hence the relentless pacing.

'Could it be true? Of course it could, the man was completely wild and didn't think most things through. He was always reckless. But, he would have known about something as big as this, right? He couldn't have. If he had, he would have been responsible and at least helped out. Wouldn't he?' All of the thoughts ran through McGonagall's mind as she waited and paced.

As green flames shot up in her office fireplace, announcing her visitor's arrival, the last thought she had before she stood face to face with this K. Edwards was- 'Poor dear, she doesn't even seem to know…'

A young witch around the age of 19 stepped out of the fireplace, dusting the soot off as she went. Minerva immediately notices the girl's beauty, but that wasn't what held her attention. The family resemblance was unmistakable she was just moments before questioning in her mind. She had the same lovely black hair that fell down her back. The same sparkle in her bright, blue eyes that suggested she loved life and maybe even some trouble, now and then. She had tan skin, an athletic body that just screamed Quidditch player and she was rather tall. There was absolutely no denying that this girl was, indeed, beautiful. Her smile lit up the room.

'Hmm…good lucks must run in the family…'

"Hello Headmistress. I'm Kaleigh Edwards. It's a pleasure to meet you."

She was so polite and well spoken. She just radiated charm. McGonagall already was fond of this mysterious girl after just meeting her for some reason.

"Hello Kaleigh. Please take a seat. Would you like some tea?" McGonagall smiled slightly, thinking that she sounded somewhat like Dumbledore just then.

"No, thank you, I'm fine."

"Well then, as you know, I have asked you here wanting to discuss the contents of your earlier letter. I must admit, I was quite shocked upon reading your letter. Do you know for fact that it is true?" McGonagall was sincerely hoping the girl would say it was all a huge misunderstanding, resemblance or not.

Kaleigh smiled, not exactly understanding the older woman's nervous demeanor. "My mother seemed quite positive when she told me. I was shocked, but all the things she told me adds up. Sirius Black is my father."

"My mother said that in order to contact him I would need to find him because she had not had contact with him since before my birth. She said I would need to get in touch with the new Headmaster/Headmistress of Hogwarts, you, after our side won the war and that you would know how to get in touch with my father. How to find him." Kaleigh finished, with a sudden nervousness and anticipation that was not there before.

McGonagall's expression abruptly changed from nervousness to sadness, Kaleigh noticed.

"I'm very sorry to have to deliver this news, but your father, Sirius Black, was killed two years ago by Bellatrix LeStrange. He died a hero when the war was unknown of to most."

Kaleigh was shocked and didn't really know what to say, much less feel. How was she supposed to react? She had never met the man and was pretty sure he had never known of her existence. All she knew of him was what was written in The Daily Prophet, which her mother had assured her were all lies. She stopped reading that rag after they called the hero of the war, Harry Potter, and the late, great Albus Dumbledore liars anyways. Her mother had told her Sirius was a good man and most likely fighting on our side in this war. Kaleigh had just wanted to learn the truth for herself.

McGonagall felt pity and remorse towards this young witch. She asked if there was anything she could do for her.

Kaleigh started to stand and leave as she said, "No, thank you. I'm just going to return home. I'm sorry to have bothered you. Thank you again, Headmistress."

As Kaleigh walked towards the fireplace to floo home, Minerva had a splendid idea.

"Kaleigh, I know it's not the same as meeting Sirius himself, but maybe you would like to meet one of the people who were closest to him? His godson? I am sure Harry would be happy to answer any of your questions. Harry, who loved Sirius a great deal, I assure you would welcome you with open arms. Sirius was the last of his family (A/N: with the exception of Teddy). He'll be delighted to know that this is no longer the case." McGonagall gave the girl a reassuring smile, squashing all of Kaleigh's unspoken worries.

"Well, if you are sure, I would be delighted to meet him. What did you say his name was? Harry?"

McGonagall gave her version of a smirk, knowing Miss Edwards was about to be surprised and responded, "Yes. Harry Potter."

Kaleigh, was indeed, shocked. "Harry Potter? The Harry Potter? The Boy Who Lived? The Hero of the Great War?" Now, Kaleigh was not dumb. In fact, she was very smart, but she was beyond shocked, hence the babbling that issued from her lips.

"The very same." McGonagall's face broke out into a full grin by then. She had found the girl's reaction very amusing.

"Wow. I'm sorry. That is news to me. I was definitely not expecting that. I don't even know what to say…"

"It is quite alright. Most do not know of Harry's relation to Sirius. They know of Sirius' and James Potter's childhood friendship, but not that James chose Sirius to play the role of Harry's godfather. So would you like to meet him?" McGonagall already knew the answer, it was obvious. Who didn't want a meeting with Harry Potter.

"I'd love to!" Kaleigh was excited. She'd finally get some answers!

McGonagall sent word right away informing Harry and the Weasley's of her visit.
