The rain was pouring down heavily as one lone boy of sixteen looking on ward from the window he saw an occasional passer by running to get out from the merciless rain to a dry and safer place. He looked away from the window when he heard hushed talking coming from downstairs he then walked slowly and carefully as not to disrupt the conversation taking place inside the house.

"Alastor you know very well Albus promised me that my son would not know of mine or his father's past ." he heard his mother shout at a very odd man dressed in a long trench coat he didn't get a good look at the rest of the strange man's attire but saw he was holding some weird twisted stick and appeared to be limping.

"I know very well what Albus said but he also requested that I come and collect the boy Danielle so if you want to bicker go and bicker to him he is the one who requested not I." grumbled the guy looking about he then saw he had some scars on his face and a strange looking eye rolling about of its own free will until it landed on him. He paled a bit and backed away hoping the man hadn't seen him he then heard footsteps coming up the stairs confirming his worst nightmare that the man had in fact seen him.

"Ah, there you are you look like your father when he was sixteen except for your eyes." Said the man as he looked him over.

"W-who are you?" He said looking back at the man.

"I am Alastor Moody." He greeted back.

"I'm Zachary Black" Zach said.

"Where would you be taking my son?" said Zach's mum as she came close to her son putting a protective arm around his shoulder.

"I am taking him to Mr. and Mrs. Weasley's home he would stay there until start of term so I suggest you get his things together." Ordered Alastor as he stared at Zach.

His mother sighed in defeat and began walking towards her son's room with Zach following close behind she pulled out a black trunk that had the initials "S.B." written she took out a long small wooden stick and tapped the trunk three times and initials slowly changed to "Z.S.B." instead she then flicked her wand again at the dressers and watched as all his belongings were placed carefully into the trunk and she closed the trunk as the last of the items were safely secured. She placed her wand back in her coat pocket and looked back to her son with a sad smile.

"Be safe Zach don't forget to write and most importantly stay safe I will miss you dearly my dear son." She gave him a hug and he hugged back trying to hold back stubborn tears threatening to spill over.

"Alright enough of that time to go I am on a tight schedule." He grumbled as he picked up Zach's trunk and Zach followed closely behind.

"Grab onto my arm and we'll be off." He said as he out stretched his arm for Zach to hold.

Zach took one last look back at his mother and house and felt a unfamiliar pull, placing him to a whole new world.

The waters were murky and it was dark out signaling night time was already here Harry looked on from where Dumbledore placed after he meet with Slughorn. He looked up to the familiar Weasley house his smile brightening as he looked up to the top window upon seeing Ginny looking outside oblivious to a pair of emerald green eyes staring at her lovingly. He then looked away and started towards the house as he walked over to the door he heard a familiar popping noise signaling someone else had apparated too he looked back noticing Moody and a strange boy who resembled Sirius, his late god-father.

"Strange I never knew Sirius had any children." Thought Harry as he looked towards them as they came closer.

"Evening, Harry have you seen Mrs. Weasley I have brought over a new guest who will be joining you, Ron and Hermione in your sixth year at Hogwarts." He said.

"No, sir I just arrived a moment ago I was going to be staying here until term starts." He said as he looked over at the mysterious boy who looked back at him.

The akward silence broke as Moody walked over and opened the door noticing the whole family and a young brunette girl coming downstairs in her pajamas holding a tooth brush in one hand.

"Ah, Harry you're here." Greeted a older woman with red hair liked the rest of the others minus the brunette.

"Hello, Mrs. Weasley." Harry greeted back hugging the woman as she smiled fondly at the boy.

"Ah, Alastor I thought you wouldn't arrive until tomorrow." Said the older woman looking on in surprise.

"I thought so too until Albus told me to fetch for him early." He said as thumbed over to the boy behind as he said the last part.

Everyone looked to where Moody pointed to and saw a young tall boy who looked to be sixteen.

"Hello everyone I am Zachary Black you can call me Zach if you wish." Said the boy smiling nervously.

Harry looked in shock at the mention Sirius' last name, so his suspicions were confirmed he was related to his late god-father, and then he felt a familiar pang of sympathy for the boy he may not know his father was killed by his own cousin Bellatrix .

"Oh, my you look so much like your father I am Mrs. Weasley and these are my children Ron and Ginny and Ron's friends Hermione Granger and Harry Potter." She beamed pointing proudly to each of the children in the room.

He nodded politely and smiled to each of them and when he stopped on Hermione he couldn't help but feel a bit bashful and smiled shyly towards the brunette her eyes were a color of chocolate and he found them extremely beautiful. His cheeks turned a slight pink as he noticed himself staring longingly at the young girl he looked away and smiled again at everyone. Moody bid everyone farewell and exited the house leaving Zach alone with the new acquainted people Mrs. Weasley nudged to Ron to take the trunks to his room directing Harry and Zach to follow him.

"So Zach, what year are you in?" piped up Ron as he carried the trunks with ease up the stairs.

"Sixth but I have been reading books on some magic in my mum's house so I know a few spells." Zach said smiling a bit.

"Do you know what house you'll be in?" said Harry glancing to Ron who was obviously remembering the time Hermione said knowing about a few spells in her first year.

"What's a house and what is a Hogwarts?" said the boy who looked at Harry curiosity beaming from his blue-gray eyes.

"Hogwarts is a school for witches and wizards and houses are places where the sorting hat puts you in there are four houses which are Hufflpuff, Gryffindor which me, Ron, Ginny and Hermione are in, Ravenclaw and Slytherin." He heard Harry spat out the last word like it was poison or something.

"I take it this Slytherin house is not a nice place." Zach said scratching the back of his head chuckling a little.

"No that's where all those who are pureblooded and then after they leave school they join the ranks of deatheaters and become devoted followers to Voldemort." He said looking darkly which frightened Zach abit.

"Who's deatheaters and Voldemort." Said Zach.

"Voldemort is the most feared wizard in history and the deatheaters are his loyal followers they all believe in a wizarding world should belong to those only pureblooded and erase the muggle-borns from this world completely." He said bitterly.

"I take it this group are not to be trusted then." Zach said looking between Harry and Ron.

"You don't know much of this world do you." Said Ron as he finally stopped at the door of his room.

"I'm afraid not, I only discovered this after meeting with that odd man at my mum's house she never talked of this place cause it holds bad memories." He said sadly looking to the ground.

"Nothing to ashamed of Zach I never knew of magic or Voldemort until I was eleven." Harry said smiling warmly to Zach.

They then went into to Ron's room and stayed up half the night talking and helping Zach get familiar with the strange new world he would soon find himself in.
