A Harry Potter Fanfic
Author's Note: Hula guys, the second chapter!
Not much to say in this Author's Note…
Jazz Black-Potter
While everyone in the room stood dumbstruck, Kingsley sighed.
"Knew it, they would take it like this" he muttered to Meercus, before sweeping out of the room.
After the initial shock, all of them started exclaiming, except Harry…
"Bill and Fleur?" Ron cried.
"Wendell and Monica Wilkins, are my parents" Hermione cried.
"Clarisse Longbottom's my Gran" Neville cried.
Meanwhile Harry and Luna just stood shock-still.
Later on, they learnt that Stella Lovegood, was none other than Luna's younger sister, teaching in Beauxbatons.
"I don't understand it, Luna, why didn't you ever tell us? That you had a younger sister, teaching in Beauxbatons?" Neville asked.
"She's a teacher there…" Luna replied.
"She might be teaching Gabrielle" said Ron, hopefully.
"Re-focus" said Meercus. "We were discussing the case. Harry, what happened, you aren't speaking a word!" Meercus asked anxious. He wasn't keen to have his sharpest and best Auror, ill, before a major mission!
"Who's Jazz Black-Potter?" Harry whispered, still pale.
He swayed and suddenly dropped down into the chair, behind him.
"Sirius never told me" he kept whispering.
"Nor did Lupin" he continued, shocked.
"Harry, it's a shock, for all of us, to find some or one of our relatives taken hostage. It must be especially hard for you" Hermione whispered, dropping into the chair beside him, placing a comforting hand on his shoulder.
"How couldn't they tell me?" Harry whispered.
"Who is Jazz Black-Potter, Meercus?" Ginny asked, as everyone dropped on the chairs, exhausted and shocked.
Meercus immediately waved his stout wand and a screen appeared.
"Jazz Blanche Potter, twin sister of James Dane Potter, born and brought up in Godric's Hollow, living with brother after parents' tragic death, with brother's wife and kid, Lily Evans-Potter and Harry James Potter. Married, James' best friend at Hogwarts, Sirius Nibertus Black, at age of nineteen, escaped into hiding soon after brother and brother's wife deaths at hands of You-Know-Who says the review" replied Meercus.
"The whole story, Meercus?" Ron asked.
"Jazz Blanche Potter was born to Robert and Bloom Potter, a twin to James Dane Potter. Both attended Hogwarts and had their own circle of friends. Soon their seven years of magical education were up and they returned to Godric's Hollow. James married Lily Evans and had a son Harry James Potter within four years of marriage. Jazz was living with James after three after graduating from Hogwarts, due to the tragic death of Robert and Bloom, due to Auror work. Jazz, James and Lily were all Aurors too. After two years, the Potter family was confined to their house due to mysterious rumors that the strongest Dark wizard of all ages You-Know-Who was hunting them. During those fearful two years they were visited most frequently by James' closest friend circle: Sirius Black, Remus J. Lupin and Peter Pettigrew and by other members such as Albus Dumbledore, at the time in Godric's Hollow and Bathilda Bagshot, author of A History of Magic and celebrated historian. It was during these frequent visits that Jazz happened to fall in love with Black and they were married off. After marriage Jazz and Sirius came to stay at the Potters' for a few months. These months passed in harmony, before the tragic blow came in the form of You-Know-Who, as he murdered James and Lily Potter. At the time Jazz and Sirius were sleeping and woke up due to the cry James let out telling Lily to run with Harry. Unfortunately, Lily too was murdered before You-Know-Who turned his wand upon one year old Harry. All the time Sirius and Jazz had managed to remain hidden. Then luck intervened. Till; date, Harry Potter is the only wizard alive to escaped the deathly curse of Avada Kedavra.
After mere minutes You-Know-Who was finished, the thing which fully grown up and accomplished wizards like Albus Dumbledore, Nicholas Flamel, Karen Hazzird had strived to achieve had been completed by a one year old boy. After hours, villagers in Godric's Hollow witnessed a flying motor bike bearing two fully grown wizards and one younger one flying away. After that Harry Potter was rumored to be seen flying away on the motor bike with Rubeus Hagrid the Hogwarts gamekeeper and Jazz's close friend. After that all known about the Boy Who Lived was that he had been given to the care of his Muggle relatives. Hitherto, all known of Jazz Black-Potter was that for reasons unknown she split with Sirius Black months after their near escape to death, and went abroad. Nothing was known afterwards of her and Ministry reckoned that either she was dead or was in hiding. However Sirius Black later got caught and put in Azkaban for murder of twelve Muggles and one wizard, his very own childhood friend Peter Pettigrew. What happened to the Black family and Potter family is yet a secret, and experts feel that, somehow, Jazz Black-Potter is the resolving key of the whole entangled mess." Meercus completed.
"Harry, she's your living relative, your aunt!" Hermione whispered.
"But why has this Voldemort's adopted son, captured our relatives?" Luna asked, pointing at herself, Neville and Ginny.
"After all Harry, Hermione and Ron were the ones who knew his secret of Hocruxes and defeated him at the end, right?" Neville asked.
Soon after Lord Voldemort had been defeated, all the papers were clamoring for a full story of how had Harry Potter defeated The Dark Lord and Harry, with aid of Hermione and Ron had told them everything right from the night Voldemort returned to power, of the connection between his and the Dark Lord's wand, of how he had formed the DA, of how they had again, nearly escaped from the clutches of Voldemort, of how Sirius had been innocent and Pettigrew 'Wormtail' had betrayed his parents to Lord Voldemort, of how Harry had had private lessons with Professor Dumbledore about Voldemort's life and had learnt about the Hocruxes and how he, with the help of Hermione and Ron had hunted the Hocruxes down and destroyed everyone of them, which enabled him, finally to kill, Voldemort, how he learnt about the Deathly Hallows and had acquired them, hw Voldemort had missed out on the Elder Wand, how Dumbledore had it with him, the full story of the Scandal of Ariana (as the book was titled, a true version by Hermione Granger) and how Dumbledore acquired the wand after dueling Grindelwald right up to what happened in the Forbidden Forest.
"We're not sure as yet, but somehow, he has found out that you also were a lot of support for DA and were keen to help Harry" replied Meercus, passing a hand over his face. "We haven't got all the details as yet, we just got to know of this from Griphook a goblin working in the Bulgarian branch of Gringotts, who says he saw a glimpse of Bill Weasley, in the mountain ranges of Bulgaria, who works in Gringotts, along with seven people, whom we presume to be Jazz, Clarisse, Stella, Wendell, Monica, Fleur and Krandert Sandwood, the adopted son of You-Know-Who" said Meercus.
One hour later Ginny and Harry were back at Godric's Hollow and were packing bags. And one more hour later they were at 12, Grimmauld Place, and were packing essentials from that house. The house at Godric's Hollow was just their vacation home. After the kids' school started they moved back into Grimmauld Place. "Kreacher" Hermione called. "Where's Ron's Firebolt?" she called out.
As soon as the kids' schools started, Hermione and Ron too moved in with Harry and Ginny into Grimmauld Place. Usually even Lily stayed with them.
Three hours later, their bags packed, and rucksacks hoisted on their backs, Harry's Invisibility Cloak and his Firebolt, Ron's Firebolt, Ginny's and Hermione's potion kits and the album Hagrid gave them including a whole stock of Polyjuice potion and other necessary potions such as Veritaserum and the Luck Potion along with other several Auror necessities were packed in the small beaded bag, Hermione had carried first on their hunt for the Hocruxes, nineteen years ago and the tents too were packed in, as they grouped in the hall. As soon as Harry had moved in, he had asked experts to remove the photograph of Sirius' mother and now the hall was free from her taunts and blood curling yells.
Soon the group, Harry, Ginny, Ron, Hermione and Kreacher were all standing in the hall one minute and then at the Auror department the next with Neville ad Luna.
"We're ready for the off, Meercus" said Harry, determinedly.
"Good luck, buddy, you've defeated You-Know-Who, this person should be a piece of cake for you!" said Meercus, thumping Harry and Ron on the back and shaking everyone else's hands.
He didn't know exactly how wrong he was!
