Chapter 1: Hurtful

I glanced around. Where did he go? I thought, uselessly. I know I haven't even started my first year at Hogwarts, but I was clutching my wand as though it were a friend. Aunt Molly and Uncle Arthur, not of any relation, are too far away for my too call them for help. My only other help was Fred and George, but they were too busy poking something sticky on the wall…a curse was put on them. We start school in two days but not if we don't make it out of here live.

"Anna!" I heard from behind me. I turned.

"Tonks!" I yelled and ran over to her.

"What are you doing here, Annabug?"

"I don't know the counter-curse for them and we kinda sorta got lost in this maze when Fred and George made me follow Draco Malfoy in."

"You should've know better, dumdum. I'm here on business." She said.

"Uh…what kind of business do you have in the woods?" I asked but she ignored me. She, then, muttered a few words at Fred and George and they stopped poking the stuff and walked over.

"Sorry!" They exclaimed to me.

"Yeah, yeah, yeah…you're terrible brothers…etc. etc."

"We aren't your brothers!" They snapped.

"Yes, but you have known me since I was born…"

"True." George said.

"I guess." Fred said.

"Well…I have to go. I hope I can trust you both with her. The exit is right over there." Tonks said and pointed to an open space with sunlight shining in. Considering I didn't see it before, I assumed she just did that. I hugged Tonks and we walked out.

"That was mean!" I yelled at them.

"Okay…" Fred trailed off.

"We are sorry."

"You better be happy I won't tell Aunt Molly what you just did, but I make no promises about Tonks…" I laughed. My name is Annamarie Rosealara Black. I have jet-black hair that comes down to my mid-back. My eyes are big and dark, dark cloudy blue. I'm shorter than the average eleven-year-old. Everywhere I go there are people walking by saying 'just like your father…' and I hate that! Aunt Molly had told me father is in Azkaban, but didn't tell me what his name is.

We walked inside the Burrow, where Ron sat at the kitchen table and watched stuff flying around his head cleaning but screamed when one of the utensils tried to clean his head. I looked over at the stairs where Harry emerged from upstairs. I ran over to him and hugged him.

"Missed you!" I called. I haven't seen Harry since last year; he hugged me back. I pulled away.

"Missed you too." He said.

"Mum said she most likely won't let you and Ginny start school this year, because a murderer named Sirius Black just escaped from Azkaban." Fred and George said as they walked in.

"Um…my last name is Black; is he any relation too me?" I asked just as Aunt Molly walked in.

"Er…no…" Aunt Molly said.

"Okay!" I said and there was a knock on the door. "I GOT IT!" I screamed as we all dove for the door. I opened it and there stood Remus Lupin. "Uncle Lupin!" I exclaimed. He isn't really my uncle but he is my godfather because my father was his best friend. I don't live with Remus because he can change into a werewolf and he said he is too dangerous for me to be around all the time.

"Hey, Anna." He said and hugged me. "Molly, I need to speak to you. Anna, I will come in here and talk to you in a minute." He said urgently and he and Aunt Molly left the room, Arthur followed. Then, we heard shouting.

"YOU THINK WE SHOULD WHAT?!?" We heard Aunt Molly scream.

"Molly, I mean before she goes to—" Uncle Lupin was cut off by the sound of breaking glass. Fred, George, Harry, Ron, and I ran in just I time to Uncle Lupin jump back and glare at Aunt Molly. There was glass all over the floor.

"Now…what do you think we should?" Aunt Molly asked, sweetly.

"Uh…kids…go in there…and DON'T listen in."

"Okay," I shrugged and left the room and everyone followed. We heard more shouting—coming from Aunt Molly—Ron screamed when a picture started talking.

"You should be used to that by now, Ron." I said, smartly. A knife went flying by my head…I screamed. I looked over to the source of where the knife came from next to the open window. I looked just in time to see a white-blond head running away. "Come on." I ordered and we all ran outside.

"Stupefy!" I yelled.

"You could get in trouble for that!" Ron yelled.

"No, I can't! The Ministry wouldn't know it was me because we are in a house full of wizards! Don't you read?" I yell back in Ron's face. He just glared. Ron and I get along fine…unless he acts smarter. I ran over to who I just Stupefied. Draco Malfoy.

"Exactly who I thought it was." I muttered. "Why would he want to kill me?" I asked.

"No clue. Have you met him before?" Harry asked.

"Once…but that was a while ago." I said.

"Maybe we should go tell Lupin." Harry suggested.

"Uh…no."

"Why?"

"Because…I don't know! I don't know what to do with him!"

"I'll go get Lupin." George said and ran off before I could say other wise. Uncle Lupin came running out.

"Sorry!" I exclaimed as soon as he got close enough.

"First instinct for a witch is to yell a charm or curse. It's perfectly fine, Annabug." He replied.

"Will I get in trouble with the Ministry?" I asked.

"No, you were lucky, the Ministry's power has been down recently."

"Oh…okay."

"Go in and I will take care of Draco…he won't remember a thing."

"He threw a knife at my head."

"I know." He said and pushed me toward the door. We all ran in. I sat at the table, Ron yanked the knife out of the wall, and Aunt Molly looked murderously out the door, Uncle Arthur was looking out the window as Uncle Lupin woke up Draco and Draco ran off, Fred and George were joking around with knives and remaking the way I looked when the knife went by my head, and Harry was standing next to the chair I sat in with a reassuring hand on my shoulder.

Uncle Lupin walked back in. Aunt Molly and Uncle Arthur followed him into the living room without saying a word.

"You know, I want to kill Draco because he came so close to stabbing you." Harry stated.

"I feel so protected." I muttered.

"You should. We all want to kill him. When we get to Hogwarts; we aren't letting you out of our sight." Fred and George said.

"And how will you look after me when I'm in class?" I asked smartly.

"Ginny."

"I'm powerful than Ginny; I can look after myself."

"Yeah, sure." We heard more shouting from the living room.

"Lets go outside." I said happily.

"After what just happened? No." George said.

"Come on!" I exclaimed.

"You want to?"

"Yeah!"

"No!"

"Aw, Meanie." I said and ran upstairs. I walked to the room I share with Ginny. Ginny, herself, was sitting on her bed.

"Hey."

"Hey. What's with the yelling downstairs?" She asked.

"Uncle Lupin came and somehow he made Aunt Molly mad."

"That makes sense."

"Yeah. That does happen a lot."

"I know."
