A/N: I solemnly swear that I am up to no good!

hello everyone! this is my second attempt at writing a story and I hope you like it. it is based on my personal favorite Harry Potter book: Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban! :D I know this story has been done before but I can't get it out of my head so I thought I'd give it a try :) I hope you guys like it!

Summary: Sophia Black is Sirius' Black's daughter. Between her father on the run, the twins that taunt her life, the boy who lived and the new Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher who seems very familiar, her world is about to be turned upside down. - moonylove13!

so, this story will be a bit out of its time music-wise other than that it should be fine and I'll be using the music of the movie Begin Again because that's sort of how I came up with the idea haha and let's face it... it's an awesome movie :) and to the followers of my other story, (All of The Stars) do not fear, I will be updating later today! sorry I had the worst writers block there but I'm back ;)

Disclaimer: I think is more than obvious to say that I DON'T own any of this! I wish I did... believe me! But I don't :(

I'm sick of looking for those heroes in the sky
To teach us how to fly
Together we cry, we cry, we cry
Together we cry, together we cry
There's so much sad gonna flood the ocean
With all the tears from a world that's broken
Together We Cry
The Script

Sophia Black looked at herself in the mirror trying to smile. Sophia Regulus Black (she absolutely despised her middle name, since it was her uncle's but her father thought it was a splendid idea apparently) was a fifteen-year-old witch, daughter of the infamous Sirius Black. She had never met her mother but she didn't really mind. She was raised by her father and her uncle Moony. But that was all a very long time ago. Now, she was a lonely teenager working summers at the Leaky Cauldron and attending Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry for the rest of the year. Only three more years to go. She knew this year was going to be hard, especially since her father had escaped from Azkaban and everyone was looking for him. They were all looking for her as well, she knew that. The Ministry thought he was going to get in touch with her but he hadn't found her and neither had them. She sighed sadly and got back to work.

"Oh, bullocks!"

Sophia muttered nervously when she spotted seven bright red heads storming into the Leaky Cauldron along with a bushy brown-haired witch and a messy black-haired wizard with a famous scar on his forehead. She didn't mind most of them though, just two of the seven red heads stood out from them.

"Sophia, would you be a dear and put those tables together for the Weasleys?" Daisy Dobberidge, the owner of the pub, said coming towards her.

"Uh, can't Tom do it? I'm a bit busy" she said trying to appear occupied while cleaning other tables.

"He's upstairs helping some guests with luggage" Daisy told her. "Go on, now" she said before disappearing into the kitchen.

Sophia sighed frustrated knowing there was no way out of this but felt a bit better when she saw that the twins had left the group to wondered off somewhere, she didn't really care. She walked over to the big group moving the tables trying to be unnoticed. She saw the mother of the group talking to her daughter. The father was talking to Percy Weasley, who apparently was Head Boy now, and then she saw the famous trio, where Ron Weasley was arguing with Hermione Granger about a cat and a rat. Ugh she hated rats. Harry Potter however, landed his stare on her as if he was trying to place her. He was sure he had seen her around Hogwarts before. She wasn't much older than him. He thought he'd seen her around the twins sometimes but didn't think she was their friend. There was something else about her though. She looked sort of familiar. She had dark black, wavy, messy, really long hair and really big, dark grey eyes. She was wearing muggle clothes; a long loose white blouse with a blue scarf, a black leather jacket and leggings with worn out boots. Harry was sure she resembled someone but didn't really know who. Please don't talk to me. Please don't talk to me.

"Excuse me" he said walking towards her. Bullocks!

"Yes?"

"You go to Hogwarts, don't you?" he said a bit confused.

"Uh, yes- I do" she said awkwardly finishing placing the tables together.

"Right, I think I've seen you around" he said with a polite smile that Sophia tried to return. "Aren't you in Fred and George's year?"

"Um- yes, I am" she answered. "Sorry, don't mean to be rude but I've got to get back to work" she said turning around and leaving before Harry could say something else. She ran over to the kitchen closing the door behind her and leaning against it.

"Take this to the table in the corner, please dear" Daisy said handing her a Steak and Kidney pie and a Leaky, Leaky Soup. "And then clean up the other tables, we're swamped in here" she said before pushing the girl out again.

Sophia did as she was told trying her best to avoid the table on the corner where the Weasley family was. She was really trying to avoid anyone since the topic on everyone's mouths was her father and it was never something good.

"Personally, I won't let any of the children out alone until he's back in Azkaban" she heard a pair of witches talking on the corner as they had their tea.

"Well, obviously he's a mad man! I can't believe he escaped. We are all endangered. It's an outrage that the Ministry still hasn't found him!"

Sophia did her best to contain her anger. She knew her father was innocent. She had always known, but of course, who would believe her? After she had delivered the plates successfully to the tables ordered, she went to an empty table and started cleaning it, hoping to go unnoticed by certain redheads. But of course the luck in her life was never the best.

"Well, look what we have here, Freddie" she heard the twins' voice behind her.

Sophia froze for a bit before turning around and seeing her classmates smirking at her. Of course, they would make this awful for her. But, as usual, there was not a chance in hell that she would let them know that.

"Weasleys" she said glaring at both of them.

"Fancy meeting you here, Black" Fred said making Sophia's heart stop a little. She didn't want to drag any more attention to her than she usually did.

"Could you please lower your voice?" she begged, looking around her nervously.

"What's the matter, Black?" George said ignoring her. "Afraid that everyone is going to know who your father is?"

"We've seen him everywhere" Fred continued. "I've got to say I see the resemblance" he said smirking at Sophia who kept her glare on them.

"Don't talk about my father!" she snapped.

"Why not? Everyone else is" George said shrugging his shoulders.

"Ugh! Can't your stupid taunt begin tomorrow?" she asked frustrated walking past them to clean another table but they followed her.

"Now, where would be the fun in that?" Fred said to her left.

"Didn't you miss us, Black?" George asked her. Sophia turned around to reply but was interrupted by the youngest Weasley boy.

"Scabbers!" Ron yelled at the rat, who was trying to get away from the cat and making his way towards the twins and Sophia.

"Ah!" the rat ran through Sophia's feet making the girl panic, screaming disgusted and dropping the tray full of dirty dishes she had on her hands all over herself as she fell backwards. Great. Just what she needed. Sophia slowly opened her eyes facing the twins with identical smirks on before the two of them burst out laughing. She mentally cursed herself as she stood up and picked up the broken plates she was obviously going to have to pay for.

"Bloody hell, that was brilliant, Black!" George said between laughs.

"Bugger off, Weasley!" she snapped back feeling her eyes fill with angry tears.

"Oh, are you going to cry, Black? Going to tell your dad on us?" Fred said with an evil smirk. Sophia was about to tell them off when, once again, she was interrupted.

"Excuse me" she saw Daisy walking towards them. "What did you just call her?"

Sophia panicked. Is not like her father was only famous now. Everyone knew who he was before and she knew there was no way she would get a job anywhere if she was related to him, so she did what she had to.

"Black?" the twins asked confused at the same time.

"I knew it!" Daisy said glaring at Sophia. "You look just like him! You said your last name was Lupin!" she accused her.

"Mrs. Dobberidge I-"

"Are you Sirius Black's daughter?" she asked with a grave tone getting Harry's attention from the table.

"B-but, I c-can explain-"

"Are you Sirius Black's daughter?" she asked again raising her voice and grabbing her arm so she couldn't get away and getting the attention of everybody else in the room. Sophia breathed heavily noticing all eyes landing on her.

"I a-am" she said making everyone gasp in horror as if Sirius Black himself was the one there. She looked down avoiding the glares she was getting from, literally everyone in the room, except Harry. He just seemed confused.

Daisy's glare got deeper as she got closer to the trembling girl. She was someone who was never mad, but when she was, it was terrifying. "You are fired! Get out of my pub! NOW!"

Before Sophia could say anything else, she felt Tom's hand on her arm pulling her rather forcefully and dragging her to the back door where he pushed her out and she tripped over her own two feet. Just a moment after she landed on the floor, her trunk was dropped next to her.

"And don't ever come back here" Tom said glaring at her. Sophia felt her heart sinking a bit. She felt the tears rolling down her cheek now. She stood up from the floor slowly and saw she had scraped her knee.

"Great" she muttered wiping away the tears. She grabbed her trunk and started to make her way out of the middle of the street, sitting down on the sidewalk. She found a wrinkled 'Wanted' poster with her father's face in it. She felt more tears as she saw just how different he looked. Not like the one she remembered. She looked inside the pocket of her jacket to get out an old photo of her and her dad before he was sent to Azkaban. He looked so young and happy and… alive. All of the sudden, Sophia felt a pair of eyes on her; she turned her head around to see a big, black dog with wide gleaming eyes. The dog looked sort of mean but Sophia saw a soft expression on him.

"Hey boy" she said motioning for him to get closer to her and he did. The dog rested his head on her lap and she patted the top of his head. "Did you get thrown out too?" she asked him and he cried in response. "Aw, don't worry about it. I can take care of you" she said scratching his ear before he placed his paw on the picture Sophia had on her hand. "Oh, that's my dad" she said with a sad smile. "And that's me when I was only three years old" she explained. She might have been imagining it but she could've sworn the dog was sort of… smiling at her. "I miss him a lot, you know?" she said patting him on the head again. "So, what's your name?" she said looking for a collar but not finding one. "Huh… how about… I call you… Moony?" she said remembering her uncle. The dog didn't seem to like it though since he started growling and barking. "Alright, alright" she said with a small chuckle. "Hmmm… Padfoot?" she asked remembering that's how her uncle Moony used to refer her father. That seemed to fit him since the dog got excited and started licking her face. Sophia did something she rarely did; she giggled. "I guess you like that one, huh?" she said hugging Padfoot as he snuggled closer to her. It was nice to not feel so alone. "What do you say we find a place to spend the night, Padfoot?" she said sadly. She was about to stand up when she heard someone opening the door and stepping out in the alley. She quickly wiped the remaining of tears and put on an angry face instead.

"Hey, um- Black" he said nervously.

"What do you want, Weasley?" she said getting up. Fred awkwardly made his way to the girl who was trying to lift her heavy trunk.

"Um- I just-" Fred started clumsily. It was never his intention for the girl to get fired or thrown out of the place. He and George were just taunting her like they always did. Although he hadn't thought that right now everyone was afraid and hating Sirius Black, and therefore they will be afraid and hating Sophia too. Fred got even more nervous when he spotted the big dog who was growling at him. "Uh, is that your dog?"

"Yes" Sophia replied crossing her arms across her chest. "Why do you want to take that away from me as well?"

"What? No, look, Soph- uh, I mean Black! Uh, look I'm sorry about what happened in there. I swear I didn't know you were going to lose your job! I didn't mean for it to happen-"

"Oh, so you do have a conscience, good for you" she said glaring at him. "Now, if you excuse me, thanks to you and your brother I have to find somewhere to spend the night" she said making her trunk feather-light and carrying it.

"Wait" Fred stopped her. "W-where are you going to stay?" he asked feeling even worse than before.

"I don't know" she said shrugging her shoulders. "I'll figure something out" she said not wanting to explain herself to him.

"Well, just um-" Fred said not really knowing what to do. "Be careful, alright?" he said looking her straight in the eyes. Sophia could swear she saw a hint of worry in his expression but that couldn't be right. "Sirius Black is out there and well, my father says he is a dangerous man-"

"He's my father, Weasley" she said glaring at him. "He would never do anything to me" she said before she turned around and walked away from the twin. Fred could only stare as the girl disappeared into the night with the scary looking dog not far behind her. He felt a small tug on his heart, not really knowing why. This was Sophia Black, the girl he had taunted for so many years. There was no way he was feeling sorry for her now… right?

"Hey, mate where've you been?" he heard George calling from the door. "We've got to go jinx Percy's badge! Let's go!" he said going back inside and Fred slowly followed.

The next time Fred saw Sophia was the next day on the Hogwarts Express. They had ended up running a bit late, so when they got inside the train, most of the compartments were full. George and himself had to go to the last compartment on the train, only to find the girl there reading a book.

"No bloody way!" George said trying to walk away but Fred grabbed his arm.

"Come on, mate. What choice do we have? It's either this or share with the Slytherin girls from the beginning" he said.

"Have you given them a second thought?"

"Go" Fred said storming into the compartment but Sophia didn't even seem to notice.

"Maybe she's deaf" George suggested and Fred rolled his eyes. "Oi, Black!" he yelled making the girl jump a little. She glared at them and removed something from her ear.

"What?"

"Do you mind if we sit here?" George asked her. Sophia rolled her eyes.

"Why?"

"Everything else is full. Do you think we'd sit here by choice?" he said rudely and Sophia glared at him.

"Whatever, Weasley. Just don't talk to me" she said looking back at her book.

"What is that?" Fred asked her pointing at the thing that was in her hand.

"It's a headphone" she informed him.

"What's a headphone?" he asked curiously.

"It plays music" she said before putting the device back in her ear and blocking them from her world.

"Someone is a ray of sunshine today, ain't it?" George said looking at his twin.

Sophia went back to her book eyeing the twins from time to time. It looked like they were planning something like they always were. She shook her head and paid attention to the music inside her head. She loved music. It was the only thing that made her feel sane. She quickly got lost in her mind again forgetting all about the world.

"Why are we stopping?" Fred said all of the sudden when he felt the train get slower and slower.

"We can't be there yet, can we?" George said looking out the window where the rain got louder against the windows. Both boys turned to look at Sophia, who apparently hadn't even noticed they were stopping.

"What now?" she asked annoyed removing the headphones from her ears.

"We're stopping" Fred informed her.

"Why?" she asked curiously getting up and walking towards the door.

She stuck her head out in the hallway and saw that most of the students were doing the same. She walked back into the compartment only for the train's lights to go out as it came to a stop with a jolt making her fall right on top of Fred. Sophia was a bit relieved that the lights were out since she felt her cheeks burning a bit.

"Are you alright?" Fred asked genuinely worried.

"Uh-huh" she said getting up.

"What's going on?" George asked all of the sudden.

"There's something moving out there" Fred said getting nervous. "I think people are coming aboard…"

There was a soft, crackling noise, and a shivering light suddenly filled the compartment. The door was slowly slid open before any of them could do anything. The three teenagers saw a cloaked figure that towered to the ceiling; its face was hidden underneath the hood. Fred unconsciously wrapped his arm around Sophia and the girl didn't seem to mind. She felt shivers filling her entire body. She knew what these things were and she knew what they were after. A glistening, grayish, skinny-looking hand was bulging from the cloak and the thing beneath the hood drew a long, slow rattling breath as though it was trying to suck something more than air from its surroundings.

An intense cold swept over them all. Sophia felt her own breath caught in her chest. The cold went deeper than her skin. It was inside her chest and inside her heart. Sophia's eyes rolled up into her head. She couldn't see. She was drowning in cold. There was a rushing through her ears and she felt being dragged downward, the roaring growing louder. She could hear someone calling her name but it was as if it was really far away. She heard screaming, terrible, terrified, pleading screams. She tried to breathe as she felt a white fog swirling around her before everything went black.

"Sophia! Sophia, wake up!" Fred tried to wake her up.

A second later, the twins saw a light coming from the hall and the floating thing went away really quickly. Someone else stormed inside the compartment. The twins saw someone who looked like he could be a professor entering the compartment with his wand up.

"Is everyone alright?" he asked looking at the twins before he spotted the passed out girl on the floor.

"Who are you?"

"I'm Professor Lupin, what happened?" he said kneeling down next to her. Remus Lupin felt his heart stop when he realized who the girl was. "What happened to her?" he snapped making the twins jump a little.

"I-it was those things" Fred tried to explain. "O-one of them just came over to her and then- sh-she passed out" he told him.

"Sophia! Sophia, can you hear me?"

"How do you know her name?" George asked him but the teacher ignored him.

Sophia felt someone shaking her. She opened her eyes to see two very concerned twins kneeling on one side of her. And on the other, she saw someone else. Someone she hadn't seen in almost ten years.

"W-what happened? What are y-you doing here?" she said pushing herself away from the teacher. Both twins frowning their eyebrows in confusion.

"Are you alright?" he said ignoring her questions.

"I'm fine" she said but Fred saw she was still shaking.

"I'm Professor-"

"Lupin, I know" she said with her voice breaking just a little bit.

"Sophia-"

"Miss Black" she corrected glaring at him. Remus felt his heart breaking into millions of pieces but nodded nevertheless.

"Miss Black" he continued. "Here" he said getting out a piece of chocolate. "Eat it. You'll feel better" he informed her. Sophia took it but she didn't eat it.

"What was that thing?" George asked all of the sudden getting the attention turned to him.

"A dementor" said Professor Lupin. "One of the dementors of Azkaban" he explained.

"Why are they here? Why did they attack Soph- uh her?" Fred said awkwardly.

"Well, isn't it obvious? They're looking for my father" Sophia said with her voice breaking just a little. "I even have his trunk" she said pointing at her trunk with the letters S. B. engraved on it.

"That's right" Professor Lupin said quietly. "Are you um- are you sure you're alright?" he said looking back at Sophia. "I've got to see another student who was also attacked" he told them.

"Who?" the twins asked at the same time.

"Harry Potter" Professor Lupin said.

"I'm fine" Sophia said with a bitter voice. "Go check on Potter" she told him.

"Alright then" Professor Lupin said sort of sad. "I'll see you guys around" he said offering a smile to the twins and taking a last look at Sophia before he stepped out of the compartment.

"We should go see if everyone else is alright" George said getting up. "Are you coming?" he asked his twin when he saw he hadn't moved.

"Uh, y-yeah, I'm coming" Fred said getting up but not really wanting to leave Sophia alone. Once George was out of the compartment he turned to look at her when he was at the door. She had taken her place again bringing her knees to her chest and wrapping her arms around her legs. "Uh- are you really alright?"

"I'm fine, Weasley" she said annoyed glaring at him.

"Sophia-"

"Don't call me Sophia" she said angrily. "We're not friends" she informed him.

"Right. Well, um- ok" he said sadly before stepping out of the compartment but noticing a few silent tears falling down her cheeks before she buried her head on her knees.

Fred sighed once he was outside the door. The year hasn't even started and already, everything felt like it was upside down. Little did he know, the girl inside was just thinking the exact same thing he was.

A/N: so, there it is! hope you guys like it! :) please let me know what you think! ok? :D

Mischief Managed!
