Chapter 4

I roll my eyes as I see my brother lounging against my doorframe.
"Did you need something?" I ask, my voice not changing in the slightest.
He gave me the Malfoy smirk. "Do I need a reason to see my sister?"
I smiled at him. "Of course not brother. What was I thinking."
We had gotten closer over the last few weeks and we were acting more like a family.
I haven't spent much time with my parents.
I decided to get to know Draco better first.
School is starting in a couple of weeks.
Dad decided he wants me to join them all at Hogwarts.
I have to admit I am excited.
Missy popped in my room "Little mistress, Master Lucius wishes to speak with you in his study."
I smile at the house elf. "Thank you, I will go and see him immediately."
I open my door and walk quickly to my fathers office.
I knock.
He calls through "Come in."
I open the door, go in and shut it quietly.
I approach his desk and wait patiently for him to speak.
He looks up finally and smiles.
"We haven't had much time to…bond, I thought you might like to look through some memories of your dad and I."
I smile and nod "I would love to, thank you."
He smiles again and shows me to his pensieve.
He picks a memory and I enter into it.
Severus glares at Lucius as he walks past him down the hallway.
He had told Severus to stay away from him and that he was to marry Narcissa a month after graduation.
Severus just felt angry.
He slid his glance down to his growing stomach and groaned.
He waited till after curfew to go see the one person he knew could help.
Madame Pomfrey came out immediately when she heard Severus calling for her.
"Mr. Snape what are you doing here at this hour of the night?" she asked.
"I'm sorry Madame, but I am in need of assistance."
She told him to go sit on a hospital bed and asked him to explain.
"I believe I am pregnant," he answers quietly.
Her eyes go wide but she doesn't express her feelings.
"Mr. Snape do you know who the father is?" she asks.
He nods but doesn't lift his head.
"Yes, I know. I can't tell him though. He would want me to have an abortion," he says quietly.
"So you want to keep the baby?" She asks feeling surprised.
"Yes, I would never kill a child of mine." He answers angrily.
"I know you wouldn't Mr. Snape. It is a mandatory question I must ask."
He nods feeling ashamed. "I am sorry Madame. My words came out wrong."
She smiles at him. "All is forgiven."
She tells him to lay back on the bed and pull up his shirt.
She grabs her equipment and starts the ultrasound.
"Mr. Snape your baby is healthy, everything looks good."
She sees him out of the corner of her eye watching the screen.
Watching him see his baby for the first time brings tears to her eyes.
She wipes them away quickly and hands him a copy of the picture.
"I am going to give you some nutrient potions that will be safe for your baby. I want you to take one a day and come to see me in 2 weeks."
He sits up pulling his shirt down.
"How far along am I?"
She smiles. "You look to be about 3 months. You will be due in August, the week around the 12th I think."
He nods says thank you and leaves.
I pull out of the memory and look around the office.
My dad… Father, and I were the only ones in the office now.
I really need to decide what to call my father it just doesn't seem to fit.
I smile at my dads and walk back up to my room.
They were immersed in a conversation so I decide to bug my brother.
I knocked on his door and waited in the hallway. He came and opened the door.
"Mate, is that your dad, I have a question for him."
I heard someone call in from the door.
"Sorry, I didn't realize you had company." I turn around and start walking towards my door.
Draco stands watching me from his doorway, Blaise comes up behind him watching me.
"Who's the girl? She's hot." He asks.
Draco turns to Blaise.
"Never say that about her again." He glared coldly at him.
"Hey, sorry mate. I didn't know she was your girl."
I turn and stop, watching as Draco turns and whaps him upside the head.
"What was that for?" Blaise asks wincing.
Draco just glares at him.
I turn to go back to my room, Draco comes up behind me and wraps his arms around my waist.
"Stormy, he doesn't know who you are."
I laugh "Guess its time to tell him huh."
"Mate, I would like you to meet a good friend of mine." Draco says smirking.
Blaise comes walking over and stands in front of me.
"Blaise Zabini, and you are?" Blaise says what he thinks is smoothly.
I smirk a complete Malfoy smirk.
"Alaina Snape Malfoy nice to meet you."
I reach my hand out and shake his.
I look up into his eyes and see complete shock.
I laugh.
"I'm his half sister," I say breezily, like its nothing new.
Draco breaks in. "Quit saying you're my half sister. You are just my sister."
I look up at him and nod.
"Alright whatever you want brother. What did you want earlier?" I ask him.
"I wanted to know about your letter."I nod grabbing the letter and reading it to him.
Dear Lady Cavanagh,
I am most honored to congratulate you on a wonderful achievement.
You have increased your powers 10 fold and they keep increasing.
That means by your seventeenth birthday your powers will fully develop and you will need to come back for 2 weeks to be assessed.
Sincerely,
The Headmaster of Durmstrang School of Wizardry

"Who is Lady Cavanagh?' he ask quietly.
I just shake my head.
"It's not important right now. We mostly need to worry about school starting."
"Your birthday's in August, the 15th right." I nod.
"So your power the letter talks about should happen in 2 weeks?"
I nod again not really saying much.
He stares at me intently "So what is it? What is going to happen to you?"
I look into his eyes and sigh.
"I can't really tell you much just what the letter says. My power will increase. I'm not going to be assessed though.
I already know what will happen, what I need to do."
I shake my head. "I'm going to bed. We are still going to Diagon Alley tomorrow, right?"
He nods. "Yeah Blaise is coming too."
I nod tell them both good night and go to bed.
