Disclaimer: I don't own the characters of Harry Potter. That idea belongs to JK Rowling. Oh how I wish I did. Severus Snape, will you please shut up! No one is suppose to know that you're here. Excuse for a minute everyone…(mumble, mumble, mumble). Sorry about that everyone. Now on to the scheduled story.
Beta-Reader: I must also thank my beta-reader LeonaKat. She's been a great help. But now she's called LunaSky. I still don't have a title for this story yet.
CHAPTER 1
It was a beautiful summer's day. James and Lily were getting ready for a couple of special visitors. Just then two figures aparated in the living room. Lily went to greet her guests. She smiled as she hugged her friends. Just then James came in. "Albus, Minerva. We're glad you could make it for lunch." James said as he greeted his old professors. "Please sit down." Lily said. Albus Dumbledore and Minerva McGonagall sat on the couch. James brought in a tray of tea and biscuits. He poured Lily's, Minerva's and Albus's tea. Albus smiled. "Where's little Kamia?" he asked. Lily shook her head. "Please don't let her hear you call her that. She prefers Kami. And she's upstairs playing with Harry." Lily said smiling. Minerva smiled at Lily and James. James hollered up to Kami. "KAMI, CAN YOU PLEASE COME DOWN HERE FOR A SECOND." Lily looked at her husband. "Must you yell so loudly? The whole neibourhood probably heard you." Lily said as her husband sat down and laughed. As did Minerva and Albus. Just then a young girl came down the stairs. She was small and it was hard to believe that she was an 11 year old. She smiled when she saw Minerva and Albus. Minerva stood up as Kami walked over to her. She gave her goddaughter a hug. As did Albus who was her godfather. They both sat down on the couch. "How are you child?" asked Minerva. "I'm fine thank you." Kami replied shyly. "Are you looking forward to starting Hogwarts this years Kamia." Albus asked forgetting that she wanted to be called Kami and not Kamia. Or maybe he didn't forget. "Yes. I can't wait to start Hogwarts." Kami said excitedly. This pleased both James and Lily. James smiled. "Albus, my baby sister already knows what she wants to do with her life after Hogwarts." James said pleased with his baby sister's choice of careers. "What do you want to do after Hogwarts child?" asked Minerva wondering how could someone so young already know what she wants in life. "Well, I want to be an Auror or a Mediwitch/Healer." Kami said proudly of her choice of careers. This shocked both Albus and Minerva. "Why an Auror Kami?" Minerva asked fearing what she was going to say. "I want to catch Dark Witches and Dark Wizards who want to harm others." Kami said smiling. "And why a Mediwitch/Healer?" Albus asked. "Well, I want to help people to get better and make sure that they stay that way." Kami said becoming even more proud of this answer. "As you can see, little Kami here already has it planned out." James said pouring some more tea for everyone. "Yes, she had thought of everything thoroughly." replied Lily who turned to Kami. "Why don't you go up and play with Harry." she said. "Bye." replied Kami as she headed upstairs to play with her nephew Harry.
"Minerva, Albus." Lily started not sure how to say what she wanted to say. They noticed that she was troubled. "What is it Lily? What is it that you wanted to tell us?" asked Albus who knew that it was something big. But how big he didn't know. Lily looked to her husband and sighed. "I…Well that is James and I noticed something different with Kami. " Lily said not wanting to continue. James continued where his wife left off. "You know that stone on her forehead? Well it changes colors with her moods. But we noticed sometimes changes in her appearance at times." James finished. Minerva looked over at Albus, who seemed lost in thought. Kami has a stone in the middle of her forehead in the shape of a small teardrop. "Well, she could be a metamorphmagus. Has she shown any powers to that of a Veela?" he asked. Both James and Lily shook their heads. "A metamorphmagus? Are you sure Albus? They're very rare." asked Minerva. "No. I'm not sure Minerva. But there are tests to prove if she is or not." Albus said feeling bad for Kami and about these tests that she might have to take to find out if she is or not a metamorphmagus. James looked at Lily. They knew that these tests could be very painful. Especially for someone as young as Kami. Albus looked at James and Lily. "We'll talk it over with Kami and see what she says." James said not wanting Kami to be in any more pain in her life. Albus smiled and nodded. Both James and Lily knew that Albus would never let anything harm his goddaughter. Lily changed the subject, and the four of them talked about other things, including how the other marauders are, until it was time for Minerva and Albus to leave. James and Lily bid goodbye to their friends. "Give Kamia our love." replied Albus before they left. "We will." replied James smiling and with a pop, Albus Dumbledore and Minerva McGonagall were gone.
Lily went into the kitchen to get supper ready. James wondered how he was going to explain these tests to Kami. He shook his head as he went up the stairs to check on Kami and Harry. He found them in Harry's playroom. Kami was on the floor reading Harry a book. "Then Snowy the owl, headed homeward after her adventure in to night sky." she finished smiling at Harry, who clapped his hands and smiling. She looked up and saw her brother. "Look who's here Harry. It's daddy." she said to Harry. Harry looked up to see his father smiling. Harry stood up using Kami for leverage. He toddled or tried to over to his father. "Da Da Da." Harry called. He reached James and put his arms up to be picked up. "Up." he said. James bent down and picked up his little son and looked over towards his baby sister wishing with all his heart and soul that he could take away her pain. He knew that his grandparents on their mother's side didn't want anything to do with him and Lily. Kami had to live with these people who treated her worst than their house-elves. Kami smiled at her brother. He knew that she endured beatings and being starved. But now she was safe with him and Lily. He wished she got to know their parents. But she was still just a baby when their parents died. Just then, Lily's voice came up the stairs. "Come on. It's supper." she headed to the kitchen to put the food on the dinning room table. Kami, James who was still carrying Harry, came downstairs to the dinning room. Kami went into the kitchen to see if she could help Lily in any way. "Can I help you Lily?" she asked shyly. "No that's ok sweetie. Go into the dinning room and sit down." Lily said smiling at the young girl. Kami did as she was told. Lily sighed sadly. "Poor Kami. She always looks like she's going to jump out of her skin at the slightest noise." Lily thought to herself as she took dinner into the dinning room. A smile came to both Harry's and Kami's faces when they saw what Lily had made for supper. It was one of Kami's favorite dishes. Macaroni and cheese with garlic bread. They ate supper quietly. But what Albus Dumbledore told them, it weighted heavily on their minds. Kami knew something was going on between James and Lily. James looked at Kami. "How in the bloody hell am I going to tell her about these tests that Albus wants run on her?" James looked at his beautiful wife. "I trust Albus with mine and my family's lives." James finished thinking to himself. James cleared the table, where as Lily took Harry upstairs for his bath. "Ok little man, time for your bath." she said to her little one. Then she turned to Kami. "After his bath missy, it's your turn." Lily smiled at Kami. Lily love brushing Kami's very long wavy/curly hair. When it's not in a braid, it almost reaches the floor. Lily loved Kami's red-gold hair and her blue-topaz eyes. Soon it was time for Kami's bath. She loved taking baths, but she also liked taking showers too. There were so many bubbles, that Kami was having a hard time finding the soap and washcloth. Soon it was time for her hair to be washed. Lily washed and conditioned Kami's hair. "Ok Kami. Time for you to get out now." Lily said as she left the bathroom. Kami reluctantly got out of the tub. She put her hair up in a towel and dried herself off and then got dressed for bed in a pair of blue pajamas with stars and moons on them. Lily came in and smiled. "Ok, let's get your hair combed, then you can read for a bit. Then it's time for bed." Lily said as she began taking Kami's hair out of the towel. It didn't take long for Lily to comb and re-braid Kami's hair. While this was going on, James was trying to get his little son ready for bed. But young Harry was making it quite difficult. "Now come on Harry. Help daddy out by being a good boy and stop moving around so I can get you dressed for bed." he sighed wondering how Lily was able to get Harry ready for bed without any problems. "Da Da Da. Phrrrpt." Harry said smiling at his frustrated father. But finally, Harry was ready for bed. Soon he was fast asleep.
Lily came downstairs and gave James a kiss. "Have I told you today how much I love you James Potter?" she said to her husband. "Nope you haven't." replied James smiling. Lily just shook her head. Tomorrow, two of their best friends were coming for a visit. James misses his friends Sirius Black and Remus Lupin. He knew that Kami misses them too. They both treated her as if she was THEIR baby sister. After a bit, James and Lily headed up to bed. "Lights out Kami." James said. "Nite James, nite Lily. Love you." she replied snuggling down under her covers. "Nite sweetheart. We love you too." Lily said as she crawled into bed with James. "We all do." he added silently to himself. James took his wife into his arms. "Tomorrow Lily and I will talk to Kami about the tests that Albus wants her to have." James thought to himself as he fell asleep. Kami started to fall asleep but something was on her mind. "James and Lily seemed a little distracted at supper. I wonder why. Oh well, if it's important they'll tell Me." and then she was out like a candlelight. Kami didn't know how important their decision was or how it would effect her. But she will soon fine out.
