Ch.4: Prisoner of Azkaban ( I'm not stealing it, I do not own it, it just fits really well, it's owned by J.K Rowling)
A new day came; the second day of Lily's Seventh year to be precise and with it as did pop quizzes.
"Good Morning Class today we will having a little quiz," Professor Minten announced in front of the whole class, this announcement was followed by many groans from various students. Lily was sitting next to belle and Remus next to James, V next to Sirius.
"Now all you'll need is your quill and ink, please start once you've received your quiz,"
Minten made a quick swish of his wand and thirty papers flew into the air, one lying on each desk.
Lily looked down and looked at the questions. The first one read.
What is your favorite interest?
Lily looked up, and raised her hand.
"Yes Ms.Evans?" Professor Minten asked looking up.
"Sir what type of quiz is this, this isn't on Magical history," Lily said. Everyone looked up confused.
"You're right Ms. Evans it is not, you see I'm glad you asked because right now you are starting your very own personal history project!" He announced with cheer.
"Our what, sir?" Lucius Malfoy asked shocked
"Your personal history project, Mr. Malfoy now please continue the quiz, I'll explain further when you're all finished." Minten said.
The student finished the quiz; it had questions on it about their family and them personally.
"Alright, now that everyone is done, let me explain. This project will be pared so you all will have a partner, and guess what!" he exclaimed
"What?" the students retorted.
"You get to choose your partner, isn't that great?" Minten said happily.
"Anyway, you will be interviewing each other and you will write an essay about the life and history of the person you interviewed, doesn't this sound like fun?"
"So this doesn't have to do with anything concerning magic?" Brian Donnely asked.
"Well of course all of you are witches and if your family isn't of wizarding background the more the merrier, because it will give you and the audience a taste of the muggle world! Alright now I'll give you the rest of class to get partners and start planning your interview, oh and one more thing, try not to choose someone you know really well, this is a learning experience, not a date or time to chill with friends and forget about the project. The essay must be no less then three pages, pages meaning the front and back of the parchment. Alright now get to work," He said enthusiastically.
Lily looked over to the slytherins and saw exactly what she expected; they all ganged up and partnered with the ones they knew best. Lily turned around and did Belle.
"Lily, do you want to work with me?" James asked politely.
"Sure, okay," Lily said with a small smile.
"Belle you want to work together?" Remus asked. Belle nodded in response.
"V, do you want to work together?" Sirius asked
"Okay, sure when do you want to do the interviews?" She asked. Sirius looked at her and smiled.
"Uh how about um . . . Sir?" He said turning to wards the teacher.
"Yes Mr. Black?"
"When is this project due?" he asked.
"Oh yes it is due after winter break, because some of you may want to find some information on your families and it may take a bit of time, so this is a long project, so basically that means, there is no excuse for not having it and it doesn't mean that you can leave it for the last minute, this is a large part of your first semester markings, so do a nice job, plus I'll be reading all of them so don't give me rubbish, Oh and one more thing I'm only giving you today and next class to work on it, so the rest will be outside of class, so I suggest you use your time wisely." he said
Sirius turned back, "Well when ever is good for you, we have a bit of time,"
"Okay, well we can just start making up questions for right now," V suggested.
"So ven vould you like to do the interview?" Belle asked Remus.
"How about next week, or sometime after, not this week cuz I'm a bit busy," Remus said.
"Yeah meet too, alvight how about next Thursday, in the library around six o'clock," Belle suggested.
"Yeah, oh wait we might have rounds" Remus said.
"Hey James Lily do you know when me and Belle have rounds?" Remus asked.
James looked to Lily with a smile.
"Uh yeah next Monday and Wednesday, James said.
"Oh okay, thanks," Remus said and turned back to Belle. "Perfect then we can do thrusday,"
"Okay great we should probably start making the questions, though," Belle said.
"Okay," remus said and they got started.
"So I guess you'll want to get a good start on this project." James said to Lily.
"Yeah, I would, I know we have a lot of time, but time flies by so quickly, you know?" She said taking out her notebook.
"Yeah, so when do you want to do the interview?" James asked.
"Well we should do our questions first, and then figure out when is a good time for the interview, just so we don't get mixed up with everything," Lily said.
The both started making questions and the time flew by, class ended and they went on their break. They went to Lily and James's Dorm to chill.
"Vell I zink zis project vill be exiting don't you?" Belle asked the group.
"Yeah, it'll give us a chance to learn about each other, I think." V said.
"So guys what should we do for our first prank of the year?" Sirius asked.
"Prank, not again, really aren't you three sick of doing that stuff?" V asked annoyed.
Sirius looked to her in shock, "Of course not," he said.
"Okay sorry, well you've done everything imaginable what do you have planned?"
"That's why I asked, so we can brainstorm."
"Vell I suspect your three want to be alone, I'll be in the library," Belle said standing up.
"I'll go with you belle," V said now getting up.
"Me too," Lily said. She got up and followed the others to the library.
Sirius looked to James.
"Well Padfoot, perhaps we need a new approach to our pranking," James suggested.
"Like what?" Sirius asked.
"Um well, how about cutting down on the pranking," James said. Remus looked to him shocked.
"What!" Sirius exclaimed.
"Prongs are you feeling alright?" Remus asked concernedly.
"Yes I'm fine; I'm just saying perhaps we should lay off the Slytherins a bit, that's all."
"Why," Sirius asked.
"Well, you just saw how V reacted, mate she doesn't like it when you prank, I can tell, she's just like lily they both hate it, and you do fancy her, right?"
Sirius side glanced in thought.
"Yes, I guess," he said
"Yeah and if she saw you stop pranking perhaps she would fancy you more and admire you for not pranking and goofing around, you know, I'm just saying, if you really like her perhaps you should stop pranking," James said
"What about you, you pranked with me all last year and you like lily," Sirius said.
"Yes, I never had one date with her did I?" James asked
"That's for sure," Remus said. James glared at him.
"Sorry just saying the truth mate," Remus said.
"Alright so no pranks, but what will we do, that's what we do what we're known for Prongs," Sirius said.
"Why don't we work on getting girl friends for once, and I mean really work, you know hey you two have the project, get close to her that way," James suggested.
"I suppose, but I really don't want to talk to her about my family," Sirius said.
"So don't talk to her about your family talk about your self, but don't be haughty, just be cool," Remus said.
-Library-
"V you kew this year would be the same as last, they're the marauders," Lily said.
"Yes you know they vill do pranks zis year," Belle said. The three girls were sitting in the back of the library in a closed study cubby, where there were three chairs and a table.
"Yes I guess so, what ever, they can do what ever the hell they want, I don't care," V said brushing it off.
"Yes you do, I know you do, other wise you wouldn't be talking about it," Lily said.
"Okay fine, so I do can we just change topics, Bell e how are you?" V said to Belle.
"Actually fine, sort of," She said.
"What's wrong?" Lily asked.
"I have to go back tonight I'm not looking forward to it," she said.
Lily looked to V nervously.
"Well it will be over by tomorrow, your just sleeping right?" V asked.
"No I have punishment, so I'll probably be staying in there through Thursday," Belle said.
"how was it this summer, I know you went to Cannes, but you did stay there right for most of the summer?" Lily asked
"Yes, I went to Cannes with an ID anklet, magically enforced, a guard came with my mom and I."
"Well at least you're not in Azkaban for your school year, I mean everyday," V said with thankfulness.
"Yes I suppose, but the other day I was stupid and started talking to remus about my case, though I changed it a bit."
"Did he figure out anything?" Lily asked.
"No thankfully you all came in, I don't know how I'd tell him that I'm a prisoner in Azkaban, charged with murder, of a family member, he probably would never speak to me again."
"Well we're the only ones who know other than Dumbledore, and we know it wasn't your fault, it was death eaters." V said.
"Yes, I'm just nervous about the project, I know I sounded all excited, but I'm really nervous, I don't want to lie to remus, but then again I don't want him to know my past or present, he'll think I'm a murderer," Belle said, her eyes starting to tear.
"Belle your not a murderer, anyone can see that, you're a vela, a damn good witch, your just in the wrong place at the wrong time, plus death eaters stormed your uncle's house in France, it's not your fault," Lily said, then pulling her into a hug.
"Why do you have punishment tonight?" V asked
Belle pulled away from Lily and wiped her eyes,
"I snapped at a guard, I yelled at him, because he was beating another inmate for no good reason," Belle said, "They treat us horribly, that's why my dad went to those riots in France."
-Dorm-
"So Moony, what do you think about Belle?" Sirius asked. James looked up from his parchment, he had started his homework.
"She's nice, I didn't know she was so serious about wolf rights," He said.
"Yeah, V was talking to us about that, she said she's really strong about them,"
"Yeah,"
"Yeah, so do you fancy her?" James asked. Remus looked up and looked to them.
"Well she's nice, we share some of the same interests, she's smart, not dumb, like everyone thinks. . ."
"Who thinks that?" Jams asked surprised.
"Just the girls who are jealous of her beauty, but actually I don't see her beauty first, I see her interests, and personality,"
"Aww Prongs I think our little moony has a crush," Sirius swooned.
"Oh shut up, we just have similar interests and if I happen to like her there's not problem in that now is there?" He asked
"No not at all why don't you ask her out?" Sirius asked
"Padfoot isn't it a bit early, they sort of just met for the first real time yesterday,"
"Yeah, plus remember on the train she can't date till she's eighteen," Remus said
"Yeah she can, V told us that, that was an excuse she told the guy, so she wouldn't have to go out with him or crush his heart badly," Sirius said.
"Were you two talking to V about me and Belle?" Remus asked looking at them both curiously.
"No, we just, well I just made conversation about belle with her that's all."
"Then how did I get into the conversation?" Remus asked.
"You didn't," Sirius lied
"Then why are talking as if I was?"
"Mate chill, I'm just saying that perhaps you should get to know Belle a bit more, you fancy her right?"
"I didn't say that," Rmeus said.
"But you do?" James asked.
Remus smiled a it
"See there it is a smile which tells us you fancy her, so go after her mate, really, she's a great gall, and trust me there are plenty of guys who would want to have her," Sirius said.
"That's true." Remus said
-Library-
"What time do you leave," Lily asked
"Vight after my last period, so could you tell ze ozers if zey ask zat I vent to talk viz Dumbledore or somezing, I know you guys can make somzing up for me." Belle said
"Yeah of course, now be carefull, try not to get too hurt okay?"
"Alvight I'll try,"
"Come on e should meet with the other for class," Lily said.
Belle wid her eyes though they were still a little red, by the time they got into class.
Their class was potions and Belle worked with V while Sirius worked with Remus and Lily with James.
"Hey Sirius what's wrong with Belle?" Remus asked looking over to Belle; her eyes were still a bit red and teary.
"I don't know mate, I'll ask," He said.
"V!" Sirius said. V turned around and Sirius motioned for her to come over. Belle continued brewing their potion. V came over.
"What?" she asked.
"What's wrong with Belle is she upset?" Remus asked.
"Oh no, she just has allergies, yeah we went out side, the pollen really got her, she's fine we're actually, well she's brewing a remedy for it right now." V said. She turned back around and walked back to her table.
"Vat did he vant?" Belle asked.
"He wanted to know why you were upset," V said.
"And vat did you say?"
"I said you had allergies." Belle nodded and kept stirring.
"Zanks V," she said.
"You're welcome,"
The class ended and Belle took her potion, her eyes cleared up and the redness from her tears went away. They all headed to their next class divination, as usual it was quite boring and they worked on their in class assignment. They then went to their next and final class Defense against the dark arts.
"Alright good afternoon class," Professor Slughorn said.
"Today we will be reviewing a bit and talking about some new things,"
"First we will just review some easy material, can anyone tell me what the difference between and animagi and a werewolf is?"
"Yes Mr. Potter,"
James lowered his hand." An animagus can transform at will into an animal while a werewolf doesn't have a choice but to transform at a certain time,"
"Correct twenty points to Gryffindor."
"Now can anyone tell me three characteristics of a werewolf?"
"Yes Ms. Desiree."
"A verevolf has excellent hearing, he or she can hear up to twenty or zirty miles avay, some verevolves have the ability to heal on their own, zey have pointed ears and yellow eyes." Belle said.
"Yes very good twenty points to Gryffindor."
"Now, today we will be talking about Azkaban, all of you are seventh years and this year will be taking a field trip to the prison, this trip will be in the spring, so it won't be for a while."
"What will we be seeing?' A slytherin student asked.
"Ah yes you will be visiting, Kingston, Folley, Dorbin, and moonlight row," Slughorn said.
Belle looked over to V and Lily.
"What are those?" he asked.
"Those are sectors of the prison, I believe Kingston is for murderes, Folley is for followers of you-know-who, Dorbin is for magicall creatures, such as centaurs, other wizards with special abilities. And Moonlight row is for werewolves, which I where we will stop last,"
"Is it safe to see them?" Sara Normandy asked.
"Well our moon charts say the full moon won't be out on that day so it will be fine."
"Yes but even so, won't it be a bit dangerous?"
"No it wouldn't." Belle said loudly, everyone turned to her.
"Yes Ms. Desiree is correct it wouldn't, though you are only allowed to walk through the prison you are not to touch, take or disrupt anything, we will be on a guided tour by and auror and a prison guard."
"Alright now back to our agenda if you have further issues about the trip, please speak to me, a letter has already been sent home about the trip and your parents can take you out of it, so you may want to talk with them to see if you're going,"
"Alright in Azkaban to this day there are over a thousand prisoners, why so many you ask? Well the truth is, is that many of the prisoners were framed and they don't have evidence to say it was or wasn't them who committed crimes,"
Slug horn went into a long disscusion about the prison and soon the class was over.
"So we'll see you tomorrow be safe and have a good night sleep," V said. All three of them were in the girl's dorm in Gryffindor.
"Thanks, I'll try." Belle said. She went to her dresser and pulled out a gray pair of pants, a tank top and a jacket. Each article had the name Azkaban written on it and on the left breast pocket, it read Amelia0507.
"What's Amelia0507 mean?" V asked.
"It's my I.D. my wolf name is my middle name, Amelia. Zero five zero seven is my chamber number,"
"OH,"
Belle got changes and wore muggle clothing, so no one would see. She said good night to her friends and went down stairs, unfortunately the guys were there.
"Hey Belle; why are you in muggle clothing?" Sirius asked.
"Oh, uh no reason, I actually have to talk to a. . .go I'll see you later, bye," Belle said and with that she left. She went down to Dumbledore's office.
"Good evening Ms. Desiree how are you this evening?" he asked calmly.
"Fine, sir, um I'm here to go to . . ."
"Yes, your port key
is on the table, one click should do it, have a good night,"
"zank
you,"
Belle took the port key and clicked once, she soon was spinning fast and within several second she landed, she looked up.
"The sameold place," She told her self. She walked to the front desk of the Moonlight Row sector.
"Oh, Hell Amelia, how are you tonight?" a tall man with graying brown hair asked.
"Fine Demetri, I'm here for my session," Bell said.
Demetri was the first guard she met when she first came to Azkaban back in her third year, he was the nicest out of all of them, he had worked as an auror for many years, but switched jobs to be a guard, to have less stressful hours and days.
"Alright I'll walk you to your room, zero five zero seven," he said. he came around the desk and took hold of her, they always did that even if you were good friends, it's how they worked. He led her down the aisle towards her chamber.
"hey Hot stuff how are you doing tonight?" a gross looking prisoner asked as she went by.
"Back in your chamber lamont," Demitri said.
He led her to her chamber and opened her doors, she walked in and took off her muggle clothes and her uniform showed.
"I'll call you in about ten minutes for you DR session," Demitri said.
"What level is it tonight?" Belle asked
"Level five," he said
"Okay, not too bad," she said and turned away, she turned around and found her room to be just the way she had left it, nice a clean, well cleanest it could be for being a prison cell.
She lay on her bed and just thought about her DR. session, a D.R. session was a session in which a werewolf or wizard would be put into another chamber with a dementor or another type of dangerous creature, the guards would leave you in there for a while, then let you out. Level five meant that there would only be five dementors in there. Belle had been in D.R. since she was thirteen had over the years had gotten used to the punishment. True she was a god girl at school, but she did get her self into some trouble at the prison, whether it be yelling or slapping an inmate or just transforming, yes the guards would say anything was trouble just to rough them up, even transforming, which the inmates couldn't help.
Ten minutes later jut as he said Demitri returned.
"Okay it's time," he said. Bell sat up and walked to the door, he opened it and he led her to the chamber.
She got in and waited for the dementor to come in, having no wand Belle just stood there. She soon felt the power of the dementors take over her and the feeling of never being happy again took over her, the dementors never kissed the inmates but sure did torture them.
-Dorm-
"Belle is sure taking a long time, where did she go?" James asked Lily, they were in the common room sitting by the fire.
"She went to talk with Dumbledore," Lily said.
'Oh, well I wonder what's keeping gher ihope she isn't in trouble," he said
"It belle, she would never be in trouble," Lily said.
"Yes I suppose you're right, you know about this project I think its going to bring Remus and Belle together and V and Sirius together, really, I think so," James said.
"What do you think it will do for us?" Lily asked curiously.
"I don't know I'll let you know, maybe it'll bring us closer, who knows," he said.
-Azkaban-
"Ahh," Belle exclaimed as she hit the floor hard, her mouth was ready bleeding, and her body was being bruised. Body shook with cold freezing air that surrounded her, her legs and hands were both numb. It had been an hour that she had been in there and soon the dementors went away and the door opened. Belle lay there in a fetal position. Two guards picked her up and took her to her chamber.
Belle tucked her cold friged body into bed and tried to fall asleep fast.
Please Review, thanks. I hope you liked it.
