:-v Hi! I know it's been a while since I told you I would try to get this up, but it's gonna take a few moments longer. :-D

First thing's first. I do not own Harry Potter or the characters in the book. The only thing I take credit for is my own characters and the story line.

I have but two things to ask of you... ;-) Pleeeease review and be kind, but mean. ;-, Anything you tell me will help me out quite a bit. Thanx! :-)

BTW, This story takes place 10yrs after Voldemort killed Harry's parents. I hope you enjoy the first chapter of Harry Potter and his Lost Family :-)

SUMMARY Usagi Summers is not your average witch. Her powers reside not only in the wand itself, but beyond it. She's also Harry's cousin, and was adopted. Of course she didn't know about the adoption, she didn't' remember. She's also 16, and supposed to have already been to Hogwarts. There were special exceptions because of the situation. She had seen and heard it happen. Her family is attacked and she some how survives and doesn't understand how, so she searches for answers with Harry, Hermione, and Ron right by her side. Now that she's an orphan, what will happen at the end of the year? Where will she go? How did she survive what only one other person was able to at the tender age of 1? Or was he the only one that survived the Killer Curse? Read on and see for yourself.

Ch. 1: Usagi's Life is Destroyed

It was a deep, starry dark night and Usagi Summers was in bed sleeping. Suddenly she woke up to a crash. She got up and rushed downstairs. Usagi's sixteen and just now finally getting ready to go to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry for her first year. Usagi stopped at the entryway of the living room.

Voldemort was standing there with his wand pointing directly at Rachel, who was on her knees...., shaking and pretty well beaten. Usagi stepped in the doorway.

"Usagi......run......he's too powerful...., even for you."

"I'm not...leaving..."she was saying as she made a lightning ball in her hand, "Get....away....from my mother...." Usagi said through gritted teeth. Voldemort just stared at here laughing shrilly; his wand still pointing to Rachel's head.

"Ahhh. There you are...I've been looking for you....just let me finish up here."

"I don't think so." Usagi was saying as she drew her arm back and thrusted it forward, "Get away....from my mother." The lightning ball hit him in the stomach on the sides, and threw him up against the wall, knocking his wand out of his hand. Usagi ran over to her mother and kneeled down next to her.

"Are you ok, mom?"

"Yes....I told you to get outta here. Save yourself."

"No...I'm not leaving....I'm gonna stay here and fight to survive. I won't live in fear." There was a shrill of laughter coming from the far wall. They turned to see Voldemort standing up clutching his side, visible electricity still jumping around there. He picked and held up his wand and.....the door bursts open and Kevin walks into the living room.

"Honey, I'm ...." Kevin starts and stops right when he gets to the entryway. He sees Voldemort standing there, wand pointing to his wife. He reached shakily for his wand and Voldemort threw a fire ball at him.

"Run, Kevin...ruaaahhhn!" Rachel screamed.

"Be quiet!" Voldemort was saying as he turned back to Rachel. He watched her, Usagi about 4, may by 4 ½ feet away from her.

"Run...please...." she mouthed, "take Usagi."

"Avada Kadavra!"

"Noooo!" Usagi yelled throwing a lightning ball and fireball at Voldemort. But it was too late. Her mother was surrounded by a deep green bright light. By the time the light disappeared, Rachel was sprawled out on the floor....arms reaching out ward. Voldemort stood there...laughing like there's no tomorrow.

"Moaaahhhm! You...you...you son of a MUDBLOOD!!" he stopped laughing quicker than you can say Quidditch.

"H...How....dare you! HOW DARE YOU!!!!" Voldemort roared. Usagi just stood their with a mocking look on her face.

"What!?!?!? Didn't think anyone knew about your muggle-born father!" Voldemort just stood their shaking. Kevin came up beside Usagi with his wand in his hand...Voldemort didn't notice.

"Usagi, get out of her. Call for Dumbledore, Filch, or Snape...anyone from Hogwarts. I'll delay him."

"Father, I'm not leaving you here alone with him. You need some help, and I'm not your average witch, remember?"

"I don't care if you are or not, you're still my daughter." Voldemort must have came out of his enraged state of frozen hunter, because right away, a spell was thrown at Usagi...the Pain curse, Crucio.

Luckily for her, Kevin saw it coming and they both jumped out of the way. Voldemort started to advance on Kevin and looked at Usagi.

"The best way I could ever torture a person like you is to force her to watch her family die and have her try to save them...HAHAHA, AAAHAHAHAH!" He pointed his wand at Kevin. Thinking quick of a way to delay him so they could come up with something, she asked.

"How are you back, anyway? I thought that you were gone for good." He lowered his wand a little.

"I see no point in net telling you since you're going to die anyway. My hidden in sight family of faithful followers." He laughed again hideously as he raised his wand at Kevin.

"Nooooooooooo!" She screamed as she threw a dozen more fire and lightning balls at Voldemort. Practically anything else Usagi knows would level the house. Voldemort just stood there laughing that hideous laugh of his.

"Avada Kadavra!" he said aiming his wand at Kevin. Usagi tackled his legs just in time knocking him outta the way of the spell.

But while Kevin was on the ground, while they were on the ground....Voldemort cast it again. This time the spell went directly at him...there was another deep green bright light surrounding Kevin...,then he was gone...they were both dead. They were dead and Usagi saw it happen, and worse of all....she couldn't stop it. Usagi dropped to her knees speechless. She just looked up and waited to die..........,to join them. He laughed again.

"Any last words?"

"Yes...I vow I will never be like you....you will know the meaning of pain. I will find you!" Usagi shakily replied.

"My dear, you won't live long enough to even take another drink of water. Avada Kadavra! No! Not again! Curse you! Curse you and Harry both!"

The light filled the house throwing Usagi against the wall knocking her out. Voldemort disappeared. There were two screams that were heard this night. One from Usagi..., and the other one from Raven-Rie. The screams pierced the night sky at the same time.

At Usagi's house, Dumbledore appeared in the fire place in a green smokeless fire by what is called Floo powder.

"Oh, no...I'm too late. I'd best get to Hogwarts and contact Professor Summers." He said as he took Usagi into his arms.

"Wait a minute...what's this on her forehead?" he looked closer and noticed a lightning stream in the shape of a horse that slanted to the right.

"I'm sorry, Usagi." He said in mournful tones as he reached into his pocket and pulled out a fist full of Floo powder as he walked over to the fireplace.

He took her into the fireplace and holding her, said:
'Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry' so loud that it boomed. He dropped the Floo powder and they disappeared in a green smokeless fire.
