Chapter one ~ Tamarisk
Tamarisk stood beside the rubble, all that was left of Godric's Hollow, all that was left of her friends, Lily and James Potter had died fighting. She fought away the tears that were streaming down her face. Then she remembered little Harry, what would become of little Harry? Sirius was his godfather; so more then likely Sirius would care for the boy. Sirius? He would be so upset about James and Lily after all he was their secret keeper. Tamarisk stopped in slow realisation, then she sank to the ground in an anguished sob. "No." she muttered. "No way, Sirius did not do this.he would not.it couldn't have been him." but even as she lay there trying to convince herself she knew that he had been their secret keeper so therefore was the only one who could have done it.
She got up off the ground and trudged home. It was the next day that she heard of Sirius' capture by the ministry and the death of Peter Pettigrew, another of her Hogwarts friends. She picked up the paper, in shock of the harsh headline.
MURDERER BLACK BROUGHT TO JUSTICE
The callous murder of James and Lily Potter carried out two nights ago would not have happened if their secret keeper 21 year old Sirius Black betrayed them. James Potter completely trusted his best friend of almost ten years and chose him without hesitation as the person to be his and his wife's secret keeper. The best part of Black's miserable life must have been when he told he master he-who-must-not-be-named that he could give him the Potters. The only survivor of the attack on Godric's Hollow was the Potters one-year-old son, Harry. Not only is Harry special because he is the only one ever to survive the killing curse but the curse rebounded off little Harry on to the dark Lord himself. He-who-must-not-be-named was defeated just as Black had shown his true colours. Pettigrew, so upset by his friends' death went to search for Black and finally caught up with him. Black was too quick he killed Peter Pettigrew and twelve muggles. The ministry arrived shortly after; Peter was given the order of Merlin first class. Black is now in Azkaban and the minister assures the public that he will never be let out. To me this is not justice and I would like to see Black suffer the Dementor's Kiss, it is nothing he doesn't deserve. I only hope that Lily and James can now rest in peace along side young Peter.
At that point Tamarisk allowed the paper to fall from her hand with a gasp. She was sure that Sirius was innocent, he wouldn't have done such a thing, least of all to James and Lily. Sirius would be the last person to go over to the dark side.
Tamarisk began making inquires into where Harry was, she traced him to his Aunt and Uncle's house in Surrey. She had half a mind to go and see him, when he was older she was going to tell him that it couldn't have been Sirius and that Pettigrew had been mistaken. She wrote to Professor Dumbledore to tell him of her concerns, but only received a letter of thanks.
So to Tamarisk Sirius was lost forever. The last member of the Marauder's was Remus Lupin. He too believed that Black was guilty. Tamarisk sank in to depression. She knew he was innocent, no matter what anyone said, Sirius was innocent.
