For: Ashley (Princess Potter) Who said my story was a good one.
Katerina
Chapter One: Betrayal.
"Kat! Kit-Kat wait up!" Called the red-head, Charlie Weasly. The girl stopped, yet did not turn. "Kat please. Tell me what's going on!" He pleaded. Tears began to form behind Katerina's eyes. She turned. "I have to leave. My family needs me." She managed to say. "Just tell me when you'll be back." He said taking her hand. "Charlie I don't know if I'll be back! That's the problem! You-Know-Who is after my family! You know that! None of my family is safe until he gives up!" She yelled trying to pull her hand away. "Kat you're safe at Hogwarts why is your family putting you in danger by taking you away from here? From me?" He said, tears now in his eyes also. "Just let me go." She said closing her eyes. "If I don't go now I won't be able to. Why did I tell you I was leaving!? It makes it so much harder!" She said. "Kat-" He started. "NO! I'm GOING!" She yelled. The succeeded in freeing her hand and ran towards the train, leaving Charlie to watch the love of his life get onto the train wondering if he'd ever see her again.

Dumbledore walked from the room. "The spell will need to be performed soon. Katerina is home and safe in the house. Your Secret-Keeper will be here soon?" He said. "Yes." Said James Potter putting a comforting arm around his wife. In the other room Harry began to cry. Lily Potter silently left the room to see what Harry needed. "Katerina?" Dumbledore said. Katerina leaned her chair back so she could see through the threshold of the small kitchen. "Yes, Headmaster?" She said. "I am sorry we had to bring you here right before your graduation." He said. "Don't be. Be sorry you pulled me away from Charlie." She said coldly, walking into her room and slamming the door. "She'll be fine." James said. "I hope." Dumbledore said. "Stay safe, James, and God bless your family." He said leaving.
After the spell was performed James and Lily sat in the living room having the first fight they'd had since the couldn't agree on a name for their daughter. "I still think we should have told Dumbledore about the switch!" Lily yelled. "There was no point!" James yelled back. "What about Remus? Arabella? If Peter betrays us, God forbid, Sirius will be held responsible!" She yelled. James put down the copy of The Daily Prophet he had been reading to look at his wife. "He won't betray us. I trust Peter with my life…" He said. "And your wife's…and your own flesh and blood! I don't think we should have switched James!" She yelled. James could tell his wife was beginning to think their friend would betray them. "Lily…" He said comfortingly. The door to Katerina's room opened and she walked out. She yawned. "Mom…Dad…I'm really sorry about yelling earlier… You are just trying to protect me…I realized that if I had kids I'd be doing the same thing… I also know, dad, that you two switched Uncle Sirius and Peter… Ummm… Rats are never trustworthy, dad, we could all die, but I think that if you believe in Peter it's probably the better choice." She said.
"Thank you Katerina…we were actually thinking of sending you back for your graduation but then we'd need to have the spell-" Lily said but stopped short when there was a knock at the door. A look of horror covered her face. She knew there could only be 1 person behind the door. "Lily, katerina…take harry, get out! I'll try to hold him off!" Before anyone could blink the door flew off it's hinges and threw Katerina clear into the kitchen and through the window. Lily flew across the room and into the wall. James hit the wall next to him, yet, quickly regained his footing. Lily struggled to stand. She ran while her husband tried to hold off the Dark Lord. Just as she was pulling a crying-Harry into a carrier she heard it…"Avada Kedavara!" The Dark lord yelled. She gasped and almost dropped her son. She frantically looked for an exit, but they had put Harry in a room with no windows for some strange reason.
Before she could move Voldemort had entered the room and stood before her, a triumphant grin on his face. "Stand aside you silly girl!" He laughed pointing his wand at harry. "No! Not Harry! Kill me instead!" She pleaded. "Instead!? I'm going to kill you both before the night is done!" He boomed. "Then take me first!" She yelled. He's not noble enough, he'd never know the Protection Charm put of the children. He's not that smart, I hope. Katerina may have made it out but unless he kills me harry and Kat have no chance. She thought. "Alright." He said. I'm coming James. Harry, Katerina, I loved you. It was her last thought. A flash of blinding green light was all she saw. He turned on harry. He said the curse and the next thing he knew he was gone.

***Flashback***
"Charlie!" Katerina yelled after him as he walked down the hall. "Charles Weasly!" She yelled. He stopped, turned, and faced her as she walked up to him. "Hi, Katerina Joanne Potter." He said grinning. "Very funny." She said. "Listen, I was going to ask if you wanted to spend the next Hogsmead weekend with me…Do you?" She said with a hopeful smile. "Sure." He said. "Great." She said. She turned to walk away. "Wait!" He said suddenly. She turned. "Walk you to Charms Class?" He said. "Sure, that would be delightful."
***End Flashback***
Charlie couldn't think straight that day. His mind kept going back to that day. The first day of the relationship that they had built together. The relationship that Voldemort had torn apart.
He walked the winding staircase to Divination. He didn't know that at that moment that Katerina was alive.
