The first ray of sunlight streaming through the open window woke Vitani Black. She yawned and got out of bed. Her brother, Sirius, was still asleep in bed. She walked across the room and shoved him.
"Wha.." Sirius muttered, looking up, his longish black hair in his face. He blew it out of the way so he could see his sister properly.
"Decided to wake you." Vitani grinned.
Sirius scowled at her. "Thanks for that."
"Oh your welcome."
Sirius snorted "I didn't mean it that way. Why did you have to wake me up so early anyway?" He looked at the clock on the opposite side of the wall. "Its 7.00."
Vitani sat on his bed, smiling. "Yeah, but todays the day we get out wands, and our owls, and our spellbooks and our-"
Sirius cut her off "I know Tani!" He was grinning now too
"I can't wait! And to think Regulas has to wait for a couple more years!"
Sirius got out of bed "Can't wait till he does come to Hogwarts-"
"-so we can jinx him and pretend it wasn't us." Vitani finished his sentence for him and Sirius nodded, grinning at his sister.
"Precisley."
"SIRIUS! VITANI!" A loud, unappealing voice sounded from downstairs.
Urgh Vitani knew her mother would shout at them today sooner or later "And there goes the voice of our sweet, caring mother." She said, making a face
"GET DOWN HERE RIGHT NOW!"
Sirus sighed. "Shes probably gone into the kitchen."
"And seen the- ur- explosion." Vitani grinned as she said it. Sirius and her had blown up the kitchen yesterday night- somehow silently.
"CAN YOU HERE ME?! COME DOWN RIGHT NOW!"
"Oh, how can we not here you?" Sirius muttered "I think China just got its wake up call."
They got changed as fast as possible and hurried downstairs. Their mother was standing at the foot of the stairs- her face confronted in rage. "WHAT DID I TELL YOU ABOUT USING MAGIC!" Vitani resisted the urge to cover her ears. "NOW I CAN NOT TELL YOU TO FIX IT BECAUSE YOU CAN'T SO I'LL HAVE TO DO IT."
"Then do it." Sirius muttered under his breath. It was thankful that Walburga Black was shouting too loud to catch what Sirius said.
"I AM SERIOUSLY CONSIDERING LETTING YOU GET A WAND! REGULAS NEVER CAUSE'S TROUBLE LIKE THIS!" She breathed out heavily then stomped into the kitchen.
"Pefect Regulas." Vitani and Sirius muttered at the exact same time. By the time the kitchen was restored to its normal state it was 9.30.
"You can come in now." Their mother said, standing at the kitchen door with a positively evil look on her face. Vitani and Sirius sped past her, grabbed a piece of toast and started wolfing it down as soon as possible. Their father Orion Black walked in once they were half-way through their piece of toast with the Daily Prophet. He sat down opposite Vitani.
"Fiften muggle attacks." He read aloud. "Eleven dead and four seriously injured and staying in St Mungos. Workers unsure if the will last the next day.."
Sirius stopped eating his toast. "Thats bad." He said
Walburga Black looked at him as if he was mad. "Bad? The Worlds a much better place without muggles if you ask me."
Sirius shrugged at his mother but Vitani could see disgust on his face. Vitani realised the same look was on her face.
They finished the rest of their toast. Their mother looked at them. "Good." She said "Now wait by the fireplaace i'm just getting my handbag.
Sirus and Vitani walked out of the kitchen and to the fireplace. "I hate that handbag." Sirius said to her as they were walking there. Vitani nodded. Their mother had enchanted it to strangle anyone except her if they touched it.
Their mother came down in a couple of minutes carrying a small velvet red handbag. It looked like a normal handbag but Vitani knew the moment someone else touched it, it would go crazy, trying to squeeze the absoulte life out of someone! She picked up a flowerpot filled to the brim of Floo Powder. "I'll go first." She said, glaring at her two oldest children. "Follow after me and speak clearly otherwise you'll end up completely different and I might not find you again." It was clear that she really could not care less if she never found them again! She took a handful of Floo Powder then shoved the flowerpot to Vitani. Then she stepped into the fireplace, shouted "Diagon Alley!" And dropped the Floo Powder. Huge green flames shot up out of nowhere and covered Walburga Black completely. When they died down she was gone.
"You first." Sirius shrugged
Vitani took a handful of Floo Powder and stepped into the fireplace. She grinned at Sirius, shouted "Digon Ally." She realised she had said the wrong thing just too late. Up shooted green flames and covered her. She could feel herself being whisked away, a stomach churning feeling. Back at 12 Grimmauld Place, the green flames had died down- leaving nothing in Vitani's place.
