Fire and Thunder
I cant believe this!
I've been stuck here for almost two whole years here for something I didn't even do!
Not to mention i didn't even have a trial. I hate Crouch, stupid biased judge. May his life get ruined and may he get killed by his own blood.
I still can't believe that they're gone, gone forever.
All because of that...that RAT!
But its my fault as well.
Sorry Prongsy, it's thanks to me that you and Lils switched to that traitor.
And because I'm in here I cant be a proper godfather to Harry.
The traitor even helped kill your cousin Cassie and Lilly's cousin Maeve. At least their daughters are alive by some miracle. What were their names again? Oh yeah, Joanne and Kym.
I bet everyone's forgotten about me now. Even if they do, they'll think I'm a liar, traitor, a fraud and a DEATH EATER!
I wish someone would know I'm innocent, to just remember the good things and most of all,
i wish someone would take my godson away from blasted, magic hating Muggles!
Wishes were always powerful and even as Sirius Black spoke, somebody did remember the good things, three people in fact and they're going to turn his life and many others upside down.
Meanwhile miles away, in an orphanage near Surry, two year old Joanne Thorwell shifted in her bed. She was awake but had her eyes closed and was searching her mind. I know its 'wound 'ere sumwa'er. She thought. Recently Joanne had found out that if she went to a certain parts of her mind, she could feel emotions that weren't her own. A story Joanne had been told yesterday was about magic and fantasy. She was always interested in those stories but this story also told of people who could talk to another with their mind and could even feel the other person's emotions, this made her think. Finally found one of the places she was looking for. The feeling of misery and being unloved was there; she had sympathy but didn't dwell on it.
'Ello? She asked in faint sense of adventure. Joanne felt surprise and slight fear there now.
Mmmmmm? A voice murmured a boy's voice. Who's dere? Why you in my 'ead? The voice was panicked. Joanne anwsered. Bu' your in my 'ead. I found you dere
The sense of extreme bewilderment was there now. Bu' how? The voice asked again.
Well, dis sorta fing 'appened in da storwy dat was told yestewday. If da storwy's wight den we can do dis so wats your name? She said carefully.
The emotions were calmer now with a sense of interest. I'm Harry, who're you den? He asked. Joanne mentally smiled,
I'm Joanne. So i guess your wike my secwet fwiend den huh?
Sure! Harry said enthusiastically.
'K den. Joanne heard a faint tapping and Harry felt a bit glum. Wats wong?
My Aunts tapping on my door so i gotta go now.
Oh, wisten Harry. Maybe you shouldn't tell anybody 'bout dis. Joanne felt the fact she had a mental link with some boy should be kept secret.
'K, see ya Jo.
She felt the Harry stop the link. Joanne opened her eyes and looked in the nearby mirror. She saw herself, a raven haired girl with smoky grey eyes but now she saw something in her left eye, a small speck of green. "Since when did i 'ave gween in my eye?" She asked herself. "Dis is da oddest day of my life and it's only just started."
Is anybody 'ere? A girl's voice asked, the feeling of curiosity was in another part of her mind.
Wat da! Who's dis? Joanne asked with the feeling of surprise and excitement.
I'm Kym, Who're you? The voice asked.
Joanne's jaw dropped. Kym? Oh my...it's me! Joanne!
Joanne had the distinct impression that Kym's jaw had just dropped aswel
OH MY GOD! Dis is SO cool!
Yeah! I can link wif two peoples! Joanne mentally grinned.
Two? Joanne could tell Kym has just raised an eyebrow
Yeah, I can link with a boy called Harry. But his link is in another part of my mind then yours.
Oohhh! Maybe I can as well.
Maybe, I wonder why we're able ta do dis. Joanne said thoughtfully.
I dunno, maybe we're all fam'ly Kym was wondering.
Err, maybe but we don' look alike like do o'ter families do. Maybe weally distant family…
Yay! Bu' i thoug't dis mind linking stuff was made-up, jus' wike madjik. Kym said but Joanne knew she was considering something but wouldn't say. Joanne said it for her.
Maybe madjik's weal.
A reddish brown haired girl sat in one of the other rooms by herself but she felt like Joanne was right next to her.
Maybe Madjiks weal The words her best friend had just said
If it's weal does dat mean we 'ave...powers? She asked.
That would explain alot, ya 'member the time you made Ms.Marsh's wig explode?
Kym giggled How can i forget? She remembered Marsh's face when her wig exploded, while she was wearing it
I thought da uvers would ne'er stop laughing. Joanne paused, thinking, before saying.Stormy, do remember someone called Pa'foot? She asked.
Kym thought hard. Faint memories of a big black dog and a kind man came back to her. Yeah, sorta. Did you have 'nother dweam?
For awhile now Joanne had been having strange dreams about people and other things.
Yep. Quite stwange. First i saw us and some boy ridin' on a big black dog. Den i saw a man reading us a book and finally...i saw the same man sittin' in this really dark place surrounded by black ghosty t'ings. Kym looked and felt uncomfortable
I wonder why you saw a black dog and den a man.
Well, if madjiks real then maybe da dog was dat man. Joanne said.
Kym was smiling. If we can do madjik, i wanna learn how da be an aminal!
Me to! I wonder if we can 'elp Pa'foot get out of dat spooky place.
How? We're jus' kids? Kym could tell Joanne was snickering.
Cowwection Cuz, we're witches who just has to pwactice der powers. We're Super Kiddies! Kym had a feeling that everything was going to change from now on.
While the girls were thought-speaking, everyone in the Wizarding world was reading the new edition of the Daily Prophet.
DEATH EATER CAPTURED BY LOW WORKING MINISTRY OFFICER!
Late last night a Death Eater broke into the Ministry to try and steal important files regarding HE-WHO-MUST-NOT-BE-NAMED. Fortunately Arthur Weasley, officer of The Misuse of Muggle artefacts office, was working late at his office and managed to subdue the masked wizard.
"I was just finishing some reports on Biting Toilet Seats when I heard something down the Hall. I knew no-one else was on my floor at this time of night so I investigated. I quietly looked around a corner and saw a masked wizard dressed in a black cloak looking through a Auror desk so I did what anyone else would do, I stunned the man then alerted my friend Alastor Moody." Arthur Weasley was awarded a ten hundred thousand Gallions for stopping the Death Eater. He later said his wife Molly, fainted when she saw the money.
The Death Eater turned out to be Lucius Malfoy. Corneilius Fudge was most amazed when his most generous donator was found trying to find where-about of the Dark Lord. Malfoy was charged life in Azkaban and his Mansion was investigated. Aurors found many artefacts of Dark magic in a hidden Chamber under the Dining Room floor. Mrs Narcissa Malfoy was questioned and it turned out that Malfoy had also murdered the parents of muggle-born witch Raksha Granger, two years ago. Since Narcissa hadn't committed any crimes, she was placed under house arrest and was allowed to keep looking after her son Draco.
Remus Lupin smiled and folded the newspaper. "I'm glad the Weasleys were able to get some money. They deserve it." He hated Lucius Malfoy even more now. So it was him who killed Demon's parents. He thought. When he was at school, she had been two years younger then him. In fact when she was in thirteen, she was known as 'The Girl Who Slapped Sirius Black.' He still laughed thinking about it. She always sort of reminded me of a pixie. Looks harmless enough but can be real devils in disguise. He smiled.
"Come on Jo! You can do it, light the candle." Kym sat on the bed watching Joanne staring at a candle with a look of extreme concentration on her face.
"Oh, Dis is pointless!" She threw her hand out in a act of frustration. A burst of fire sprang out of her palm and not only lit the candle but made it explode. Both girls screamed and dived behind her bed to get shelter from the molten wax that was flying everywhere. After a while they looked out with equal expressions of shock on their faces. Kym gulped. "We'll 'ave to work on dat." Joanne nodded. "Ye-ah."
Wat happened? Harry voice asked inside both their minds.
Joanne made the candle blow up. Kym said.
Summit tell me you didnt mean ta do dat, he said in slight amusement.
It was an aksident! Joanne frowned. Kym smirked.
Wat ever you say Smokey.
All that got her was a pillow in the face. Kym frowned and tried to get her with her hand but instead a bolt of lightning shot out of it. "Aaah" Joanne ducked. The lightning bolt whizzed over her head, hit the window and made it shatter. Harry laughed
You both are aksidents wai'ing to 'appen!
Shut up! They both said in unison which just made him laugh more. Joanne sighed. "We'll 'ave to be more car'full if we're gonna 'elp Pa'foot." They'd already told Harry about Padfoot. Then Ms Marsh's strange sickly voice called up the stairs.
"Girls, Someone's here to see you!" The girls in question rolled their eyes in unison and made their way down the stairs.
Raksha Granger sat on an armchair in her living room. Her dark brown almost black hair cascaded down her back in waves; her clear hazel eyes were focused on her ward. She was looking at her little sister 'Mi playing with a stuffed cat but wasn't really seeing. It's been two years since i saw them. She thought. Thanks to Malfoy, our parents died. The best people in the world, they adopted me when I was a young child; put up with my accidental magic and even gave me a little sister. Granted it was a surprise for al three of us. My 'Mi only knew them for one year before they were gone and I was only Nineteen. But I'm Twenty one now and I'm going to give her the best life I can or my nickname isn't Demon. She was snapped out of her thoughts when 'Mi tugged on her trouser leg.
"Can we go ta bee-ch?" She asked. Demon frowned.
"'Mi I'm really…" She started to say but was interrupted with her sisters. "Purweeeeease?" And big-eyed kitten looks.
I wish she wasn't able to do that. "Ok, fine!" She gave in and went to get their coats.
"Come on." She took her sisters hand and walked to their car so they could drive to the beach. When they got there 'Mi instantly ran to find some good sand.
"Don't go near the ocean ok." She went to sit on one of the many big rocks. Least 'Mi is happy, she's all I have. Being lost in thought once again she blocked out everything until a voice brought her back to earth.
"Err excuse but, did you allow that girl to go into the sea with her clothes still on?" Demon turned around and saw a sandy haired man.
I've seen him before. Then the words sank in.
"WHAT!" She yelled. Demon soon spotted her little sister, indeed, playing in the sea. She groaned. "Well as long as she's happy."
Demon turned to the man again. I've defiantly seen him before.
"Have we met?" She asked. The man frowned slightly.
"You do look familiar...Oh! I know you! You're Screamin' Demon!"
She frowned at that. "I hated that nickname..." she looked at him more closely
"Oh yeah, I remember you now! You're Loony Moony!" The man raised his eyebrows.
"What did you just call me?"
Demon giggled. "I heard James Potter say that once, Nice to meet you again Remus."
Remus Lupin smiled. "I never knew that he called me that. Anyway, who's the girl?" He asked.
"My sister, well her parents adopted me, she was born when i was nineteen. I look after her now." She answered in slightly dark tone
"Least Malfoy's in Azkaban now." Remus said and Demon smiled.
"He deserves it. Probably even more that Sirius Black."
At that Remus raised an eyebrow. "How do figure?" He asked.
"Well, Malfoy killed loads of people and I always knew he was evil. Sirius, well he was an ok person who seemed to always fight the dark and not be in league with it. I mean I guess, the person in the Order who I thought untrustworthy was Peter. Ya know since he was always disappearing." She said carefully.
"Demon!" 'Mi ran up to big sister soaking wet.
"Well, I see you've had a good swim! Come on; time to go before you take most of the sand with you." Demon said picked up a pouting 'Mi. "See you Remus." She waved and walked back up the path towards her car. He's cute. Wait a sec! I did NOT think that! Yeah he was cute in school as well. Oh! THAT'S IT I'M NOT THINKING ABOUT LOONY MOONY! I wonder why he was called Moony. THAT'S THINKING!
She's pretty cute now. Wait a minute, what am i thinking? It's Screamin' Demon for god sake! Though that doesn't stop her being cute... I shouldn't think about that sort of thing. It would never happen because of my 'problem'. I wonder if she has a boyfriend now. No I cant think about that either!
Remus watched Demon take her sister to the car and then drive away.
Even though she's a nice person.
He started to walk back to his house and decided to take a shortcut past the orphanage. The werewolf was just approaching the large building when he heard a scream...
