The stars have told us a lot over time. If you look for the right patterns they tell the stories of when the gods and goddess of Olympia ruled and when earth, the heavens and hell below were their roaming grounds. The adventures they told are still there for all to see and learn from their mistakes. They tell some people how to return home from a long journey by following the North Star. Some even believed that if you follow the patterns carefully that you could tell what the future holds. Though today most people only use the stars they mean for me. My whole family's history is in it and the future of us are too.
"Jasmine are you up here still? It's getting late and we have to be up early tomorrow."
That would be my sister Emily and my name is obliviously Jasmine. My full name is Jasmine Shaw Black. I am 5' 4 with long black hair that I usually have streak of color in. My eyes are a light grey with speckles of Turquoise in them. My sister Emily is 4'4 with light brown hair and Blue eyes with Purple speckled in them. My parents are Cindy Talcomb and Sirius Black. I am 13 years old while my sister Emily Marie Black is 11. My mother died in child birth with Emily when I was 2. I use to have an older brother Zack but I don't really know what happened to him. My Father is a Wizard but my mother was a fairy queen. Of course I do not live with my Father for he is a murder of 12 muggles and in the wizard prison Azkaban. So we live with our Godfather Remus Lupin. We live in a decent sized house in the country and I wouldn't have it any other way. Remus has been an amazing father to us while always making sure we had what we needed before himself. The only thing that annoys me about him is he won't let me or Emily help out money wise. Its not a big deal to us to buy him a better home or that but he claims we are the best gifts he could ask for. He also claimed this was the perfect place for him during his time of the month. We usually go where ever Like sometime we go to our palace. Of course being Princesses means we do have a castle. I won't take over the throne till I get my wings. And yes some aren't thrilled with me being half witch because they usually try to stay out of wizard problems. No I do not have wings yet. I should be getting those around my 14th birthday so I got another year lucky me. Sometimes we go to our uncle serves house even. Yes Serves Snape is my uncle but not by blood, We just seem to get along well with him. Most of the time we go to Hogwarts and stay in our rooms by professor Dumbledore's office. I'm home schooled for now.
Me and Emily are well a secret to the world. We are vary powerful because of our Fairy Magic in us to a point where we can apparate by ourselves and do Magic without a wand. We can even control the elements on our own but we haven't been at the palace long enough for us to start training. Lucky us though we can start Hogwarts this year because Remus will be a teacher there this year so whose gone to not only teach me but Emily too? I guess they really don't want us known to the world yet but they have always said it was because Voldemort would want our power but I just have a feeling its more than that they aren't telling us but oh well ill find out sometime soon I guess. Supposedly we get to start our element training while we are at Hogwarts to finally. If only the Council saw things our way. Of course when my mother passed away the council took over and will continue to till I am ready to take over. But me and Emily do have finally say in all at least. As I've mentioned they really don't like wizards. They just seemed in the past to think they were better than all species of life. Even then, they seem to hold grudges in my opinion I mean can't we all just get along? Even though they don't like wizards we are not the first half breeds with wizards but first in the last 100 or so. At lest they do accept some wizards like Albus Dumbledore. Wizards who in other words prove they are truly good and do mean no harm to not only fairies but to all in general. I think this may be a reason why we are allowed to go to Hogwarts too sometimes. Not that they don't like Remus its just the werewolf part isn't vary easy to explain.
Though when Pandora's box was opened it let out all the evil into the world along with hope so of course there are evil in us too. It may seem funny but there were death eaters that were fairies long ago when Tom Riddle was at his greatest height last time. It may seem funny but as I said me and Emily start our training on the Elements soon that means there are other fairies who can do it too they just only have one. But enough about fairy history lets move on with my life. I start Hogwarts in a week and I'm excited as can be.
"Emily im just looking at the stars the patterns have changed which means something is coming. I think we need to go see the council and Albus." I finally sat up pointing to her and started to slide over to get down from the roof.
"Jazz we can go in the morning then and stay there for a few days. Remus did our school shopping already. Just get to bed. Good night"
Miss. Cranky, fine. Maybe I can talk to Remus before bed a bit. "Remus are you still down here?"
"Yes of course Jasmine is everything okay?"
" Ya its just something's going to happen soon. I just wanted to see if you knew what was happening."
Remus looked up with a startled expression then did a long sigh and put his head in one of his hands shaking his head mumbling about who knows what. " Emily I know your listening why don't you come out here." Emily came out from around the corner with a small smile on her face and a mumbled apology.
"Girls please Understand and remember that not everything is as it seems. There is always another side to a story so please listen carefully. Your Dad, Sirius, and I were best friends with James potter in our Hogwarts days. When We got out Voldemort was starting to gain more and more power fast. Eventually James Married someone named Lilly Evans and they had a Son Named Harry Potter. Your Father and Cindy Talcomb got married right out of school and Had Zack a year Later. When the potters were attack by Voldemort that night Everyone Blamed Sirius For giving away their location But they forgot that Sirius and I were not the only secret keepers. There was another that was our friend, Peter Pettigrew. Everyone assumed it was Sirius Because Sirius Family comes from a long line of devoted witches and wizards to the dark arts. When your dad heard what happened he went directly to Peter because we heard he was around some eaters lately. But Sirius when Sirius found him he was knocked unconscious and Peter took his wand and killed 12 muggles. Then he cut of one of his fingers and disappeared so they'd think he killed them too. Sirius has been in prison for 12 years for a crime he didn't commit. He would never kill his friend."
Emily sat there in deep though about everything we were told. Aboustle silence was all you would hear from us for 10 minutes with us all in thought. Till Emily broke the silence. "But Remus if Dad is innocent can we see him and talk to him about this?" "well that's also the other reason why I'm telling you this all now.2 weeks ago your dad somehow escaped from Prison. I don't know how before you ask and I didn't know he was planning on it. I'm not goanna lie though. I will not be surprised if he tries to see you before school starts. That is though up to you if you talk to him and give a listen. I'll see you girls in the morning it's getting late. Goodnight." Remus walked out of the living room and up the stairs to his room.
"Jasmine what do you think of this?" Emily got up and sat next to on the couch and looked at me with confusion all over her face. "well it does make a lot of sense. We can ask Niki tomorrow for advice till then lets assume this is true. Something is coming and he is correct that every side has 2 stories but it is up to us to decide which story we want to believe. Either dad is innocent or Guilty. But even then I think he's innocent. I'm gone to sleep Emily. Good night." Lots to think of. One more look at the stars then I got into bed and went into a dream filled sleep of green lights and I'm assuming faces of all the people Remus told us about.
The next day I woke up to the nice hot on my face. I walked over to the shower and let the water hit my face. After a bit I started playing with the droplets. At least I'm getting better its just controlling it with strong emotions I can't do well or large amounts either. When I went downstairs to my surprise I heard another familiar male voice "…..I can't believe you told them, you should have waited."
"well if I did then they wouldn't know the truth and be thrown into it with the prophet announcing it all everyday. But then again I know you love playing the father role….."
"SERVES! What are you doing here! I thought we weren't seeing you for 2 weeks till we go to Hogwarts!" I was running in behind Emily to hug him. "Well I figured I'd see and make sure you had everything for school. So I guess I'm just visiting before you leave. And see if someone can give this owl a new home." He pulled up an owl cage on the table with a medium sized black owl with bright blue eyes. "Oh serves he's so pretty Jasmine we need to name him well! THANK YOU!" Remus looked a little excited at the owl. "Well I say we name him roger."
"Jasmine that's way to random and stupid. But yet he seems to like it? Oh well roger come up to my room and visit it."
Serves looked up and smiled "Well I guess I'll see you girls in 2 weeks have fun." With shouted byes he left.
"Remus do you think he'd be upset if we didn't get into slytherin?" Remus looked up startled but with a soft smile on his face. " I think he would get over it quickly for you guys. Get into the house you're meant to be not just because you're worried about what someone will think."
I gave Remus a small smile and went upstairs to get my trunk for school. I came down to see roger flying around Emily like mad with her on her trunk. "Remus, I can't for Roger to see Hogwarts! He will love it!"
" EMILY AND JASMINE TIME TO GO!" We both ran into the living room where Remus made our luggage appear where it needed to be till we go to our rooms. "Everyone grab the portkey and ill see you in a few days. 3-2-1" then I felt the familiar tug at my navel pulling me into another world.
