2. i find out the truth (Andromeda)

(Andromeda)

When Aunt Walburga and Uncle Orion brought Cassiopeia and Lyra home, Bellatrix and I were intrigued. Life went on normally, or as normal as it gets when you're part of the Noble and Most Ancient House of Black. Of course, as proper pureblood daughters, Bella and I weren't allowed to ask about them.

Then came the dinner party. It was held at number 12 Grimmauld Place which was where Aunt Walburga and Uncle Orion lived. The whole extended family was there, except for Cassiopeia. I noticed that every time aunt Walburga, uncle Orion, Mother or Father spoke to someone, they forgot about Cassiopeia. Lyra just stood in a corner hiding from everyone. I knew that I couldn't stand to watch so I left as soon as possible.

Dinners were tense already with Sirius having been sorted into Gryffindor. I knew I couldn't hide my secret forever, but it wasn't like I could announce in the middle of dinner that I was engaged to and in love with a muggleborn and pregnant with his child. I decided to visit Ted since he always helped calm me down.

After I cleared my head, I went back to the party. As I walked through muggle London, I noticed Cassiopeia and Lyra's faces on a poster saying they were missing. But their names were Cassandra and Lydia Lightwood. I realized that my aunt and uncle had kidnapped them, so I devised a plan to get Lyra out.

A week after the dinner party, I contacted my grandfather, Pollux Black. After explaining to him the truth about Lyra and Cassiopeia I broke down in tears. My grandfather was never one for emotions so it surprised me when he comforted me. Of course, right afterwards we got back to refining my plan. I apparated to Ted's flat. He and I then argued about what was going on and the baby. He revealed to me that I had been under the Imperious curse the entire time. I left him after that.

Finally the time came to put my plan into action. I told my aunt, uncle and parents that I was in love with Ted and pregnant with our child to start it off. This started a large argument which Bella, Sirius, Reg, Narcissa and Lyra watched. I finally had enough and yelled, "I LOVE HIM! AND AT LEAST HE ISN'T A MURDERER AND KIDNAPPER LIKE YOU! Come on Lyra. Let's go!" and with that I grabbed her arm and ran out of there. We could hear my aunt screaming behind us, "I'LL KILLYOU FOR THIS!" as we apparated to the British Ministry of Magic.
