A NEW LIFE
Luna Lovegood stood over the child's bed holding the note and locket she had found in her friend's study. The child, Cassandra Potter, knew nothing of her father's fate. Luna felt her eyes burn and closed them to force back the tears she knew would soon come. Harry had finaly beaten Voldemort, but he wasn't able to escape the curse this time around. Though instead of kiling him the curse left him in a coma, and Cassandra alone. Cassandra's mother had died giving birth to her five years ago, and Harry had been left alone to raise her. Luna heard a soft click behind her and realized Hermione and Ron had arived.
"I'm taking her home with me" Hermione spoke up and walked over to the child's bed and stood next to the younger women. Luna shook her head.
"dumbledore said she had to live in the muggle world, she too will be famous" Luna felt a bitter anger rise just thinking of the old headmaster, she had wanted to take Cassy after she heard what happened but the old man refused.
"The muggle world? But Harry severed all ties with that world years ago, she'd have no place to go." Ron said pushing one of the child's long black curls behind her ear. Hermione was about to protest to the child being in a world that could never understand her when she noticed that Luna was holding somthing.
"Luna, what's that in your hand?"
"It's a locket and a letter i found in Harry's office, it's adressed to Cassandra, it's written in magic ink only she can read it." Luna handed the items over to the other woman and watched as she tried to open the circle shaped locket.
"I't won't open, it must be gaurded as well" Ron who had become a little iratated turned back to Luna and spoke
"So where will she be staying, he has no family in the muggle world, we are the only family he has." Luna took a shaky breath, they were going to find out sooner or later any way.
"You know that's not true...we have no choice in the matter, she will have to stay at the dursleys home." Luna closed her eyes, ever since seventh year the four of them have been inseperable, that was only six years ago. Taking a deep breath she opened her eyes and just as she had expected the two had matching looks of amazment and anger at her reply. Hermione was the first to react shaking her head as if it were on fire she ran to the Cassandra's wardobe and began to began to throw the girl's robes in the available suitcase.
"Hermione, what are you doing you know she can't were those in the muggle world." Hermione turned back to her and as quietly as she could, as not to wake Cassandra, she walked over to her until they were face to face.
"Do you honestly think for a second that i would let anyone take that child to those people, i don't care what the hell dumbledore said." Hermione hissed.
"Daddy...Aunt Mione?" Cassandra rubbed her eyes and sat up. "What are you doing here, is it a suprise?" Hermione felt as if someone had just ripped out her heart, how could she tell this sweet inocent child that her father was...gone. The Healers had not been able to wake him, they said it was as if his soul had been sucked out of his body. Hermione sat next to the girl and handed the child the locket and the letter. Cassandra opened the letter and watched as her father's handwriting appeared in bright blue ink. After a few minutes of studying the note she looked back at hermione and a shy smile spread across her face.
"Um..AuntMione...I can't read." Hermione knowing the writing would only appear for the child couldn't help but wonder why Harry would write to her if he knew she could not read. Cassandra held the locket close to her face and watched the carvings on the gold necklace move around. Curious she tried to open the locket, but it wouldn't open. Hermione saw this and decided that mabey she was not ment to open it or read the letter just yet. With that thought she took the locket and fastened it around the child's neck. Cassandra felt a fuzzy warmth cover her and smiled, she could feel her parents presence, and not just her father her mother too. A loud sound from downstairs caught all their attentions. The room suddenly was cloaked in an eerie light, Hermione Luna and Ron looked outside to see the Dark Mark staring back at them, Voldemort's followers had come for Cassandra. Luna took a small ring from her cloak and told them all to grab on to it, moments later they felt a strong tugging and dissapeared.
Hermione looked around at her suroundings, Private Drive. She nelt by Cassandra and took the small child's hands into her own.
"Listen cassy, this is your new home." It hurt her to even think of leaving her goddaughter here, but it would be safer than her home.
"My home, why did we move? Where's Daddy? Aunt Mione...Where's Daddy? Will he be here soon? Uncle Ron? Cassandra was scared, somthing was wrong, very wrong. She looked around at her friends, they were keeping somthing from her. Her eyes rested on Luna. Cassandra liked her, she was always around. Her dad liked Luna too. It was Luna who spoke next.
"Sweety, do you remember when your dad told you about the bad man?" Luna looked into the child's eyes. Cassandra nodded.
"Well, Harry...he...he got hurt by the bad man...hurt bad." Luna saw fear flood into the five year-old's eyes.
"Is he okay, what happened, d-daddy." She whimpered the last part, and fell into Luna's arms.
"Were working on bringing him back to you, now i want you to be a good girl and behave for these people. It's for the best you'll see." Luna said as Cassandra buried her face in her cloak. She picked up the crying child and began rubbing her back. After a while Cassandra fell into a dreamless slumber. The three walked the steps of number 4 and had a long talk with the dursleys, who had a six year old of their own.
For the next six years Cassandra (cassy) Potter lived with her Aunt and Uncle Dursley.
