A little girl hugged her mother as she gazed up at the Hogwarts express. She would be entering her first year at Hogwarts and was extremely nervous. "Leanne, you have to board the train now. Don't forget to write a soon as you get to Hogwarts and tell us all about it." Her mom said to her before giving her a kiss on the check goodbye. "I won't! See you at Christmas!" she said happily as she stepped on the train. Leanne walked until she found an empty compartment. She slid the door open and took a seat. Moments later a blonde headed boy walked in and asked to sit down. "I'm Draco, Draco Malfoy." The boy said holding out his hand. "I'm Leanne Black." She said shaking his hand. "Black? Who's your father?" the Draco boy asked eyeing her suspiciously. "Um I don't really know, my mum never talks about him and I've even seen him before. But I think his first name's Sirius why might I ask?" Leanne said slightly uncomfortable. "I have to go." He said walking out of the compartment.
Leanne is the secret daughter of Sirius Black. She's a half-blood, her mother is a muggle. Leanne was placed in Slytherin during the sorting but she doesn't fit in. Leanne is the only person in Slytherin who isn't a pureblood. Draco won't speak to her since he learnt who she really is, and her only friends are Harry, Ron Hermione and couple other Gryffindor's. She is still unaware of all secrets in her life but is soon to find out. Now that you know how her story began, let's pick up where it leaves off.
*Three Years later (3rd year of Hogwarts)*
"It's completely mental how you two fight over everything! Ron it's just a rat get over it!" I shouted at my two friends as they fought over who's animal did what to which. Ron keep complaining that Hermione's cat Crookshanks was trying to eat his rat Scampers and they've been driving me nuts all morning!
"Well I'm sorry Leanne but if Hermione would just keep that bloody beast of her's away from Scampers I'll be fine!" Ron said still staring daggers at Hermione. I rolled my eyes and looked up to see Harry standing on the stairway laughing. While Ron and Hermione were still arguing Harry came down and I wrapped my arms around him. "How was your summer?" I asked him pulling away. "Could have been better. I blew up my aunt that was pretty fun." He said casually. "Harry!" I said in a scolding manner. Ron and Hermione stopped fighting for a moment to talk to Harry too. He told us about everything that happened and Hermione gave him a lecture on why he shouldn't have done that.
I said goodbye to Harry, Ron and Hermione and left the Leaky Cauldron to pick up a few school supplies I still needed.
I was just about to walk in Madam Maxine's when a poster caught my eye. I've been seeing them for months now. Wanted: Sirius Black I looked at the picture of my "father" and thought about how much of a disappointment he is. My dad's a murder. And now he escaped from Azkaban. "Looking at your Daddy are you?" I heard a voice say from behind me. I didn't have to turn around I knew exactly who it was; Draco Malfoy.
When I first met him I thought he was nice, but then for the past two years at Hogwarts he's made my life a living hell I guess were going for a third now.
"Just leave me alone Malfoy." I said trying to walk past him but he caught my arm. "How does it feel… to be a murders daughter and know he's on the loose?" Draco said in a sort of whisper. A smirk appeared on his face and he let go of my arm. "Or do you guys fit in the category 'like father, like daughter'?" he said with an evil, piercing laugh.
I watched as he walked away with his two cronies Crabbe and Goyle. Every year, he does this every year and I let him. At first I try to defend myself but it's impossible with him.
I walked in the shop and tried to push the thought of Draco Malfoy out of my head completely. I did for the most part then I lost control and the words he said flow through my mind. 'How does it feel to be a murder's daughter?'
I closed my eyes trying not to think too much about it. "Leanne Black, here are your robes." I grabbed them and ran out of Madam Maxine's.
As I walked down the street I could hear people whispering mostly about Sirius Black. I let a tear fall out of my eye as I walked past posters of him. That's the most I've ever seen of my own Dad. Wanted posters all over the place.
It was much easier to deal with all of this when he was still in Azkaban, barely anyone ever talked about him but now he's the center of most gossip.
Harry tried to comfort me before by saying it gets easier, but I don't see how it could. At least I'm not alone in this though, apparently everyone thinks Sirius's breakout was linked to Harry in some way.
It's hard for me because no one even knew he had a daughter until I showed up to Hogwarts for my first year. Well of course Dumbledore and the teachers knew but I mean student wise. In my first and second year basically no one questioned me about but now random strangers will recognize me and start bombarding me with comments and questions on the matter.
Being in Slytherin doesn't help much either. I honestly don't know how I was placed in that house. I act nothing like any of them. Or maybe I do but I just don't realize it. I mean after all I am the one and only daughter of an escaped prisoner.
*Skip to Hogwarts express*
I fallowed Hermione, Harry and Ron into a compartment and sat down. "Leanne is there something wrong? You've been quiet for too long." Hermione said looking worried. "Everything's fine, I'm just tired." I said added a smile so she would by it.
I zoned out as Harry told us about the conversation he had with Mr. Weasley. I rested my head against the back of the seat a stared and nothing in particular. "I'm going to go change in my robes, I'll be back in a minute." I said and pulled out my robes. They all nodded as I left the compartment. As I was going to the bathrooms I ran into Malfoy. "Oh great." I said sarcastically to myself not realizing I said it out loud.
Instead of saying some smart elic comment he just flashed my one of his signature smirks and a wink. I watched as he walked away utterly confused. What the bloody hell was that about? I wondered to myself as I continued on my way.
Once I changed I headed bck to the compartment. But on my way there the train came to an abrupt stop and everything went dark. I stood still not knowing what I should do. I saw some hooded figure coming towards but it was still far away.
I felt a pair of hands wrap around my waist and pull me with them. I heard the door shut and looked to see Malfoy. I shivered as I saw a creepy looking hand begin to open the door. But for some reason it left and the lights came back on. I was still holding my breath waiting for something to go wrong again.
"You're welcome." Malfoy said opening the compartment door. I was still to shocked to come up with a smart remark to say back to him. I just walked out and went to see if everyone was okay. I got back to my compartment to see Harry passed out and that teacher guy with Hermione and Ron surrounding him.
"Is he okay?" I asked concerned. Just as I said that he began to open his eyes. "Oh yes he'll be fine." Professor Lupin; I think, said. I sat down as Hermione told me what happened. When she asked me where went I just told her I got in an empty compartment. I didn't mention the part about Malfoy, but I don't really know why.
When we arrived at Hogwarts I got in a carriage with a couple of Slytherins I barely know and sat in silence. As we walked in the Great Hall I took a seat at the Slytherin table at the very end. No one from Slytherin would talked to me unless it's an insult so I just sit alone.
I felt someone slid in the seat next to me and I looked to see Malfoy. "Okay, what is your problem and why are you acting this way!" I half asked half yelled at him. "I'm doing anything." He said to his defense. "Then why are you sitting here? Move!" I said a little too harshly. "Well if you must know, there aren't any more seats and I'm not sitting beside Pansy that girl makes me want to punch her." He said pointing to the table.
I rolled my eyes and looked somewhere else besides him. As Dumbledore was giving his beginning of the year speech I only half listened to it. When the food appeared on the table I was debating just going to the common room so I wouldn't have to deal with Malfoy but I'm starving so I just stay. I look over at the Gryffindor table and Harry and Ron give me sympathetic looks. "Why are you friends with them? Isn't it enough you're a fifthly mudblood." Malfoy said as he caught me staring.
"For your information I'm not a mudblood! In case you haven't noticed my wizard dad has been in the news lately. And about that comment you made the other day, if I were you I wouldn't be running my mouth. Because don't forget like father like daughter I might just decide to take after some of my father's traits and kill you in your sleep." I said whispering the last part so only he would hear it.
"I'm not scared of you." He said almost laughing. "Well you should be, I mean why else would I be the only person in Slytherin who isn't pureblood, hmm?" I said smiling to myself.
"You know what AnnieI think this is going to be one fun year." Malfoy said smirking. "My name isn't Annie!" I said completely ignoring the rest he said.
"No, it's a nickname. And you know what I think I like that name better Annie."
Opposed to what Malfoy thinks I know this is going to be one long hellish year. And it's just the first day.
