Paige Potter: The Chamber of Secrets

by GreekEMTSlytherinSpriteFairy

Paige is Harry's younger sister and goddaughter of Remus and Tonks. She's a year behind her brother. She helps him through his fights and has her own demons to battle. Divided into a seven story series. Story two of seven.

7. Chapter 7

AN: Alas, we have come to the end of Chamber of Secrets. In two days time I shall post the beginning of The Prisoner of Azkaban! Which sucks because I'm horrible to Paige. So if you thought Lockhart and the gigantic scar was bad, just wait. It gets much worse before I'm done the series. You'll see how I figure it out, but for now the conclusion of this story! So sit back, relax, and enjoy!

Disclaimer: I only will claim Paige!

Paige watched as Harry pulled off his sock and slipped it inside the diary. He would present it to Mr. Malfoy because Paige was staying as far away from that family as possible. It was bad enough she had to bunk in the same tower as his son, but Lucius was twenty times worse. The fact that even Remus couldn't think of a nice word to say added to it.

"Dobby is… free!" Paige laughed. It had worked and the look on Malfoy's face was priceless.

"You cost me my servant!" Malfoy snarled as he took a step forward. Paige moved to stand by her brother's side when Dobby stood in front of him and used his magic to blast Lucius from where he stood. Paige laughed once again. "Mark my words, Potters, you will meet the same end as your parents one of these days. They were meddlesome fools too." He turned to stare at Paige. "And you disgrace the name of Slytherin." Malfoy stormed off as Paige moved next to Harry.

"Mr. Potter saved Dobby! How can Dobby ever repay him?" Harry laughed.

"Just promise me one thing." Dobby looked eager to find out what it was. "Never try to save our lives again." Dobby grinned and nodded before disappearing.

"I'm going to miss that little guy. He's a lot better than Kreacher!" Paige laughed. Harry nodded and spotted Hermione at the end of the hall. He rushed forward and hugged her tightly while Paige watched from afar. She turned and headed back to her dorm to get ready for that evenings feast.

Paige sat at the end of the Slytherin table, everyone else staying far away from her. She ate and worked on her homework that she had missed. A shadow fell over her and she looked up to see Lockhart. The hall quieted some as they watched the exchange, Snape and Remus standing at the head table.

"I owe you an apology" he said. Paige stood up and pulled up the arm of her robe, showing him the scar.

"No, you owe me more than that and you owe Dumbledore your resignation" she said. He stared at the scar, his jaw locked.

"What else?" Paige dropped her sleeve, ignoring everyone's stares.

"I want you to tell everyone in the wizarding community what a liar you are. Give the fame you stole from others to them. Get lost and never return." Lockhart nodded and left the Great Hall. Paige closed her books and left as well, heading back to her dorm.

"Paige" Sirius called out. Paige turned to smile at him. "I… I came to apologize. It's not that I don't trust you to not turn, it's more I am scared. I don't want you to be like my family. I mean, you know Mrs. Black." Paige nodded.

"I know Uncle Sirius, but I need your help and support and love to get me through the years. I need you" she whispered, tears falling down her face. Sirius pulled her into his arms.

"You have me, Paige. Always." Paige nodded. "Nice handling of Lockhart by the way." They laughed as Sirius escorted her to the Slytherin house.

"Yes well, someone needed to put him in his place!"

"You ready to see Dudley again?" Harry asked as he slid into the train compartment next to Paige. She rolled her eyes as she pet Yiska, who sat sleeping on her lap.

"Who is?" she said. "Pompous, spoiled git" she muttered. Harry laughed and opened the window as he, Paige, Ron, and Hermione waved goodbye to Hagrid. They'd be back next term.

AN: And there we have it. A nice wrapped up ending. Although personally I think I was too nice to Lockhart, but I didn't want to give Tonks too much to do. She does have a job to do after all. So, thank you all so much for reading and reviewing. I hope to get one more review from you all please! Stay tuned for the next installation of Paige!
