Random: Okay, people, this sort of like a backstory. It's supposed to show how my OC's (Cassi Black from Not Defined by the Blood) parents fell in love and yada yada yada. This is a Sirius Black/OC fic. I hope you like.

Declaimer: I do not own Harry Potter because J.K Rowling does. However, I own my OC Lyra and any other OCs I might add.


The House of Black has been a well-known and respected pureblood wizarding family since the Middle Ages. It is one of the oldest and wealthiest pureblood families in the world. Many of the other pureblood families have Black blood here and there in their own bloodlines. The family motto is 'Toujours pur', which means 'Always pure', and for centuries no one in the familiar questioned this motto. None of them ever thought of associating with muggles and muggle-borns let alone mix bloodlines with them.

They shunned or treated all muggle-borns horribly, and those they thought of as Blood Traitors even worse. They saw them inferior to their pureblood status. Over the years, the Black family remained one of the purest pureblood families with no one questioning their beliefs. However, that had changed in the mid to late 1800s. First ever Black to be disowned to questioning the Black's beliefs was Eduardus Limette Black. No one really speaks of his transgression towards the family that ended with his disownment.

There was a long break until another member of the Black family was disowned. These breaks in between Blacks questioning their family lifestyle and being disowned became less frequent as time went on. The latest of the Black family that had been disowned was young Sirius Black who was against purism. Not even five years before him, his cousin Andromeda was disowned for marrying a muggle.

The family is hoping not to deal with anymore embarrassments like Andromeda and Sirius anytime soon. However, there is another Black who isn't quite like the rest of her family. In fact, she's bit a of a black sheep amongst them. Will she leave her family as well? And what role does Sirius play in her decision?


Random: I hope you liked the prologue. The first official chapter should be up tomorrow before midnight. If you want to leave a review, feel yet...just no flames, k?
