Prologue

"You have to hide me! Please, I'll do anything, he's going to kill me. But you can protect me, he won't hurt you! Please Mi-"

Mia Carmola awoke with a start. Sitting up slowly she pushed her black hair away from the side of her face. Pushing the covers aside she shuddered as a sudden chill passed across her body. Walking to the window she waved a hand and the latch became unlocked and a soft breeze pushed the window open a crack. When she opened it, cool grey eyes stared up at her.

"Well hello Daya, and how are we this morning?" The black owl bowed her head as if to respond to say, 'Fine.' Mia smiled and reached forward, taking the parcel and paper from her owl's talon. She tossed the Daily Prophet on her bed casually, letting it fall open. Petting the owl's head affectionately, Mia reached back and handed her an owl treat. Daya returned Mia's treat with a soft nip to her hand with her beak. "You be careful now and I'll have a letter for you this evening if you'll come back." Again, the owl nodded her head in response and with a huge flap of her wings; she took off, disappearing into the blue skyline. Mia took her time, getting things around her room situated. She noticed that the parcel was in fact from her mother, probably some healing remedy she wanted her only daughter to try out. The woman was always coming up with new things to test out before she put them out in her store in Diagon Alley. But that was always the fun of it. Mia made a mental note to add another letter to the one she was already planning on writing. Deciding to be incredibly lazy this morning, Mia opened her bedroom door and walked to her kitchen. The cool feeling of the tile on her feet was nice first thing in the morning; it woke her up. Seeing that her teakettle was already finishing it's first brew, as she enchanted it to do, Mia grinned and poured herself a cup and as she turned to walk back to her room, she grabbed a pastry. Back in her room Mia put her teacup on the beside table and sat back down, pulling the covers back across her legs. Taking a bite of the scrumptious pastry she picked up the Daily Prophet.

Her eyes widened and the pastry fell to the ground.

"Sirius..."

Disclaimer: Hey, I don't own HP or any of the movies. If I did, I'd be JK Rowling and/or Warner Bro's. So seeing as how I don't, I'm just writing this fanfic. Enjoy!

Author's Note: Alright, this is my first shot at an HP fic so I hope you'll be kind to me. I have another chapter right after this. My reasoning for wanting this was because I thought of the question, "What if someone else was able to stop Peter?" So I wrote it, about Sirius Black's old girlfriend. She's not a Mary Sue, I promise. So please review and flame if you wish. It won't bother me. Enjoy!
