Chapter One – Destiny Knocks
Sapphire Jasmine Jacobs was curled up in bed. She was only half asleep when she heard a soft knocking on her front door. She slipped silently from her bed and picked up her short, thin, pink silk robe and tied it around her naked body.
She picked her wand up from her bedside table and silently made her way downstairs. When she got to her front door she opened it a little, her wand gripped tightly.
"Good evening Miss Jacobs, I'm sorry to disturb you at this late hour."
"Professor Dumbledore? What are you doing here?"
"There is something I must discuss with you Miss Jacobs. May I come in?"
"Yes of course Professor," Sapphire replied and opened the door wider.
She went into the living room with Dumbledore following. She sat in one of the big comfortable armchairs and crossed her legs. Dumbledore sat opposite and smiled as Sapphire pointed her wand at the fireplace making flames erupt in the grate, ignoring the blatant use of underage magic.
Sapphire sat there confidently even though much of her body was on show, one thing she was not was shy. She knew she had a sexy body and loved to show it off.
"What can I do for you Professor?"
"I don't know if you've heard or not, but Lord Voldemort has returned," Dumbledore replied.
Unlike many in the magical world Sapphire did not flinch at the name. "I've heard that the Ministry is denying it and that Fudge is making out your slightly insane and trying to cause trouble and destabalise his power," Sapphire replied.
"Do you believe the Ministry's stand on this matter?"
"Of course not Professor. I always knew he would return, that's why I've learnt every combat and defensive spell I could find. I've made sure that I have the skills to help take out him and as many Death Eaters as possible."
"I understand Miss Jacobs, which is why I have come to see you. I have spent the past fourteen years trying to keep you hidden from Voldemort and his remaining followers, sending you to Beauxbatons has kept you from being detected. However, I feel that it is time for that to change. I think it is time for you to take your position at Hogwarts, like you should have done five years ago," Dumbledore said.
"But why sir?"
"Well to aid in the coming troubles that are sure to befall the wizarding world, but to also give support to Harry Potter. As I'm sure you know he and his two friends have a knack for getting into trouble. I think they will have need not only of your considerable abilities, abilities that I feel will equal those of Mr. Potter, but I also feel they will be in need of your friendship."
"Professor, don't you think that I'm a little bit free spirited for Hogwarts?"
Dumbledore chuckled. "I'm sure that you will ruffle a few feathers, but it might do Hogwarts good to see a different shall we say, view on life."
"Okay Professor I'll come to Hogwarts, but I want to be in Gryffindor," Sapphire said.
"I'm sure that can be arranged. Now there is something else I wish to ask you."
"Yes sir?"
"I have reformed the Order of the Phoenix. Ron Weasley and Hermione Granger, Harry Potter's best friends are already at Headquarters, Harry will be joining them there soon. I wish to extend an invitation for you to finish the remainder of your holidays there as well, to give you a chance to get to know your new classmates. Also it would allow me to be sure of your safety," Dumbledore said.
"Will I be able to tell anyone or communicate with anyone?" Sapphire asked.
"Who do you have in mind?"
"My foster sister Harley Monroe from Ravenclaw, she's upstairs asleep."
"You may tell her that you are going away for the rest of the summer holidays and you will be able to write occasionally as long as you do not tell her anything about the Order," Dumbledore said.
"My parents never betrayed the Order and neither will I."
"I know you won't Miss Jacobs. Two of the Order members, Alastor Moody and Nymphadora Tonks will be waiting at the end of this street at midnight tomorrow to take you to Headquarters," Dumbledore said standing up.
Sapphire stood up as well and showed Dumbledore to the door.
"It was a pleasure to see you again Miss Jacobs."
"Same here Professor Dumbledore."
Dumbledore left and Sapphire went and sat back down in the living room.
She had been waiting for this moment for her entire life. She had been waiting for the day for Lord Voldemort to return so she could have her revenge. Sapphire's parents had both been talented and magically powerful. They had fought alongside Dumbledore in the Order of the Phoenix. However, this had made them a target for Voldemort and his Death Eaters. What made their actions worse was that her parents were pureblood and therefore 'blood traitors'. Voldemort had murdered them personally.
Dumbledore had spirited baby Sapphire away to a foster family. Her foster mother was a witch and her foster father was a Muggle born wizard. Sapphire grew up happy, with a foster sister and had regular visits from the famous Professor Dumbledore, who she knew had been close to her parents. He told her at an early age about Voldemort and how he met his downfall a mere two months after killing her parents when he tried to murder Harry Potter.
When she turned eleven and it was time for her to begin her magical education Dumbledore decided that it might not be safe for her to attend Hogwarts with her foster sister and decided it was in her best interests to attend Beauxbatons Academy of Magic in France. Sapphire had been happy there but she had always wanted to attend Hogwarts where her parents had been educated.
The only problem was she was not like other Hogwarts students. Sapphire was five foot five and had a size 14 curvy body with 38E boobs. Her eyes were a deep blue almost the colour of sapphires which she was told why her parents had named her. Her hair was blonde and wavy and reached halfway down her back and had purple streaks in it from root to tip. Her bottom lip was pierced with a lip ring and she had her tongue pierced with a stud. She also had a microphone tattoo on the inside of her right forearm. She also has a tattoo of a Deathbat on her back with the word 'Fiction' below it.
Sapphire always wore make-up and only ever wore short skirts and dresses and low-cut tops, sometimes wearing tight jeans on occasion. She normally wore high heeled shoes and boots even and school. At Beauxbatons that is not much of a problem as it is a more relaxed school, at Hogwarts however, it will probably cause a stir
Sapphire stood up and waved her wand at the fireplace putting it out and made her way back upstairs to her bedroom. She took off her robe and slipped naked into her King Sized bed. She cuddled up to the still sleeping girl.
This girl was Harley Monroe, technically her foster sister, but in reality they were lovers and had been for two years. Even though they had been raised together they had never really been sisters, they had only ever been friends.
Then in the summer holidays two years ago they had crossed a line and become lovers. They had kept it quiet as in Wizarding Britain same sex couples are still rare. In France, however, it was not so uncommon and Sapphire had already had two relationships with girls and had slept with a couple more. She had not cheated on Harley as they were not a committed couple.
Harley had wanted them to be a proper couple, but Harley went to Hogwarts and they only saw each other in the holidays. Besides, Sapphire did not love Harley and she did not think she ever would.
Harley was a pretty girl. She was the same height as Sapphire with a size 12 body and 38C boobs. Her hair was black and shoulder length with red streaks. She had her lip and nose pierced and dressed very similar to Sapphire. The difference was, when she went back to Hogwarts the piercings would come out and so would the streaks in her hair. She would dress down too.
Sapphire was determined to change that when she went to Hogwarts with Harley.
The next morning Sapphire was woken up by soft gentle kisses. She opened her eyes and looked into Harley's.
"Morning sexy," she said and stretched.
"Morning baby," Harley said. "What do you want to do on our last day together?"
Sapphire remembered then that Harley was going back to her parent's home. Sapphire lived in her own home even though she was only fifteen. She lived in the house she had inherited from her parents, which was protected by the Fidelius Charm.
"Before we make any plans I need to tell you something. Professor Dumbledore came to see me last night while you were sleeping. I'm going to Hogwarts when the new term starts," Sapphire said.
"Oh baby that's wonderful, we'll be able to see each other everyday. We can be a proper couple," Harley said excitedly.
"You mean you're willing to be in an open relationship with me?"
"Yes I am Saph, I want us to be able to walk around holding hands and kiss in public. I want it all."
"So does that mean that you'll dress like the real you? Because I will be," Sapphire said.
"Anything baby."
"Good. There's something else I need to tell you. I'm going somewhere with Professor Dumbledore tonight and I'll be there for the rest of the holidays. I won't be able to see you but I'll write as often as I can."
Harley looked sad at this. "But where are you going?"
"I can't tell you, I'm not entirely sure myself," Sapphire replied.
"But I'll miss you baby."
"I'll miss you too but it's something I've got to do."
"Then I'll support you baby, but you gotta write loads."
"I will."
Harley kissed her and they both got out of bed. Neither of them bothered to get dressed as they always walked around naked while they were alone. It gave them easier access to each other's bodies.
They had breakfast and then did the washing up and started packing their stuff to go their separate ways.
When three o'clock that afternoon came both of them were packed. Harley was leaving at five so they had two hours left together. Harley grabbed Sapphire's hand and pulled her towards the stairs.
"What's wrong?" Sapphire asked.
"If I'm not going to see you for five weeks then I'm going to fit five weeks of sex into the next two hours."
Sapphire giggled and smacked Harley's bare round bum playfully.
An hour and a half later Sapphire collapsed on to the bed out of breath next to Harley. "That was amazing."
"Sex with you is always amazing," Harley said cuddling up to her.
"I'm definitely going to miss this," Sapphire said, meaning the sex, she was not so sure about actually missing Harley, she never did when they went to different schools.
"Me too baby, and I hate to ruin this, but I've got to take a shower and get dressed."
Harley got out of bed and went into the en suite bathroom. When she came out fifteen minutes later with a towel wrapped around her, Sapphire was still in the bed. Harley got dried and then dried and straightened her hair. She then put on her make-up and then put on a short pink dress that barely covered her bum. She did not bother with any underwear and put on a pair of knee high boots.
"How do I look?" she asked standing up.
"Good enough to fuck," Sapphire replied.
Harley giggled. "You've already done that four times this afternoon you little nympho."
"You're just as sex mad as me."
"True but that's because you're so good."
Sapphire smiled and got out of bed and slipped an old t-shirt over her head. She went downstairs with Harley and they said their good-byes on the doorstep, sharing one last lingering kiss before Harley left to go home.
All Sapphire had to do now was wait until midnight.
Sapphire got out of the shower at eleven thirty that night. She sat at her dressing table doing her make-up, being careful to not go over the top. As much as she wanted to be herself she did not want Harry Potter and his friends getting the wrong idea about her. A free spirit she may be, but she was no slut.
Sapphire put on a lacey red bra and a red sheer thong set. She then stepped into a denim mini-skirt and pulled on a black rock band t-shirt. She then pulled on a pair of mid-calf length black boots and zipped them up.
She then went from room to room making sure all of the windows were locked, making her way to the front door where her trunk was. Sat on top was a cage with her Black Barn Owl Fiver inside. She picked the cage up and dragged her trunk outside, locking the door behind her, first with the two keys and then the enchantments for magical protection.
Sapphire walked down the street pulling her trunk on its wheels. At the end of the street she could see two people standing under a street lamp.
One was a grey haired man. His face was badly scarred and he had a chunk missing from his nose and he had a wooden leg with a carved claw foot. His eyes were mis-matched, one was brown and the other was electric blue and moved independently of the other. This was Alastor 'Mad-Eye' Moody, and ex-Auror that had filled half of the cells in Azkaban by himself.
The second was a rather pretty girl in her early twenties. She was about five foot eight and slim, a bit too slim for Sapphire's taste. She had a pretty heart shaped face and bubblegum pink hair. Sapphire loved it when a girl had bright colours in her hair.
"Are you Sapphire?" the woman asked.
"Yes I am."
"Hiya, I'm Tonks and that's Mad-Eye. I hope you like crazy rides kid," Tonks said.
"A ride on what? And I'm not a kid," Sapphire said and the woman laughed.
"Sorry that's a bad habit I picked up from one of the other Aurors. What do you like to be called?"
"Sapphire, Saph or Heroin."
"What the bloody hell is Heroin?" Moody growled.
"It's a Muggle drug, it's addictive, illegal and dangerous," Tonks laughed.
"Yep, and I'm addictive and I'm dangerous when I'm pissed off which makes me do illegal things," Sapphire said smiling.
"I like you Sapphire. Now we're going to ride the Knight Bus, have you been on it before?"
"Yes unfortunately."
"Well let's get going then," Moody said and stuck out his wand arm.
There was a loud bang and a triple decker purple bus appeared in front of them. The conductor, Stan Shunpike got off.
"No way, I ain't letting you back on 'ere," he said when he saw Sapphire.
"Why not?" Tonks asked.
"Coz last time she was on 'ere she broke my nose."
"Yeah because you kept staring at my boobs and then grabbed my bum!"
"Well what do you expect when you dress like a tart?"
"That's enough," Tonks said and flashed her Auror badge, as Moody grabbed Sapphire who was about to go for her wand. "Now you've just admitted to sexual assault on an underage witch, which is punishable by up to five years in Azkaban. Now either you can let us on or I can arrest you."
"Okay fine, but she goes on the top deck," Stan said.
"Nymphadora, take Sapphire up with her trunk, I'll take care of the fare," Moody growled.
"Don't call me Nymphadora!" Tonks snapped, her hair going bright red.
"On, now."
Tonks levitated Sapphire's trunk and the two of them went to the top deck where all the beds were empty.
"Get comfy Saph we could be on here a while."
"I take it we're going straight there?"
"No, we'll get dropped off nearby and walk the rest of the way," Tonks replied.
Moody then appeared. "We'll be there in about an hour or so. I'll be downstairs keeping guard."
The Knight Bus set off. Sapphire sat on the nearest bed to her and took off her boots and sat back on the pillows with her legs curled.
"Mind if I join you?" Tonks asked.
"Feel free," Sapphire replied. "So you're a Metamorphmagus?"
"Yeah, how did you know?"
"You're hair changed colour when Moody called you Nymphadora."
"Yeah I hate my first name. People always called me 'Nympho' at school," Tonks said.
"In that case my parents should have called me Nymphadora," Sapphire said smiling.
"I didn't think you dressed like that just to get a breeze in the right places. You do it to attract guys' right?"
"Actually I do it because I love showing off my body and to attract girls."
"Oh, so you're a lesbian?"
"No I'm bisexual but I prefer girls," Sapphire explained.
"That's cool. I knew a couple of girls in Hogwarts who were bi but they were too scared to come out. I'm half-blood so I'm used to Muggle attitudes towards gay and bi people."
The two of them sat chatting until Moody came up and told them the next stop was theirs. Sapphire put her boots back on and picked up Fiver's cage and Tonks levitated her trunk down to the bottom deck.
The bus stopped in a dark street and they got off. Sapphire followed Moody, pulling her trunk behind her. They walked for about fifteen minutes before Moody stopped and handed Sapphire a piece of paper.
"Read it. Memorise it."
The Headquarters of the Order of the Phoenix can be found at Number 12 Grimmauld Place.
Moody took the note back off of her and ignited it with his wand. Sapphire recognizing that the Order must be using the Fidelius Charm with Dumbledore as the Secret Keeper, looked at the space between numbers eleven and thirteen and watched number twelve pop up between them.
"Come on then," Moody said and opened the door.
All three of them went in, Sapphire not knowing what the rest of the holidays would hold for her.
