Well this is a quick update!

Thank you for the great reviews!

I have now made it possible for anon-reviewers to review! I hope to see more reviews, seeing that there are oh so many readers and oh so few reviews? Sigh such a blow to my self-esteem!

Plus, the more reviews I get, the faster I will update. Easy peasy!

jchangpa: The reason I don't rust their relationship is quite easy. Actually there are two reasons. 1. Are relationships that are meant to last usually rushed? 2. It takes a while for friends to become lovers and stay friends.

Some... Clifhangers and it may feel as if I am leaving to many loose threads. Don't worry, I intend on tying them up as the story proceeds.

Chapter 10

"Wait a minute! So what you are saying is that the line of Ravenclaw, which was thought to be extinct, was actually just in hiding? Or rather the desendents just decided to stay out of the public eye?" Harry looked at Sirius with a skeptical expression.

"Well its a tad more complicated than that really..." Sirius took a mouthful of butterbeer and swallowed. He smiled at his godson, "The Gryffindor line stayed and still is a very powerful line. But about two hundred and thirty years ago, the only child, a daughter named Lauren Gryffindor, married a Potter, thus merging the two families. So that actually makes you Lord Potter-Gryffindor. Well and sub-par Lord Ravenclaw if you decide on taking up that title aswell."

Harry sat there with his mouth hanging open. Hermione had quite a similar expression on her face.

"I'm a lord? Well that's... Unexpected..." The other four occuoants laughed at Harry.

"Well Harry you are still considered a minor and thus I, your godfather, have to look after your intrests together with working alongside the goblins." Sirius smiled nonchalantly.

"Padfoot, you forgot to mention you yourself are a lord." Remus said with one eyebrow raised.

Harry and Hermione looked at Sirius with blank expressions. "Well yes... I am Lord Black, but also have a sub-par title and rights to the Hufflepuff line."

Harry abruptly stood and walked to the window overlooking the beach. Hermione went to stand next to him, "Harry are you alright?"

He frowned, "Not to sound ungrateful and all, but I would rather be a pauper if only I could have my parents back..." Hermione hugged him tightly. It took Harry a few moments before he hugged her back.

"Harry I know this is all a lot to take in, but rather I tell you now before you find out elsewhere..." Sirius said, he was now standing next to the two teens and placed his hand on Harry's shoulder.

Harry could only nod, his eys starting to shine from unshed tears. Remus and Tonks also came to stand with them and smiled with encouraging smiles.

"And for what it's worth, you have us to make up a family!" Tonks said smiling broadly, her hair changing colours and ending up in a midnight black to match Sirius'.

"OH! And before we go make dinner, something else to get all emotional about!" Tonks said giggling, she pulled Remus to her side again and nudged him to continue.

Remus scratched his hear and looked up with a boyish expression, "I asked Tonks to marry me." Sirius ran towards Remus and Tonks and picked both of them up, "FINALLY YOU MAKE MY COUSIN A WOMAN!" Tonks swotted her cousin over the head and demanded to be let down. It didn't take long for him to let go in anyway, "Yeah there goes my back again... Are you guys sure you didn' gain weight?" Before Tonks could strangle him, he ran out the room, Tonks giving chase.

"Haha well those two act more like sibblings than cousins wouldn't you say?" Remus asked the two teens.

"Professor, congradulations!" Hermione went forward first. Harry directly behind her.

"Whoa there, Ihavn't been your professor for a long time!" The two teens shook their heads, Harry held out his hand, "Congradulations... Moony!"

Remus Lupin smiled, "See! Now how dificult was that?" The three of them made their way to the kitchen to start working on dinner. The yells and laughter from the two cousins could be heard all throughout the cabin.

"Pro... Moony?" Hermione asked from where she was putting the pots on the gasstove. Remus and Harry were busy peeling potatoes the muggle way.

"Yes Hermione?" He smiled kindly.

Hermione was silent for a while. She knew she wanted to learn, but what if she was being to forward? What if Harry didn't want to learn?

"Could you teach us..."

Albus Dumbledore was walking around his office. Something was not right, he could feel it. Voldemort was striking at random now like he did before and he needed to do something to protect more people.

He walked over to the fireplace and flooed Minerva, "Professor? Would you mind coming to my office?"

The Weasley twins were walking down Diagon Alley with their eldest brother. They were busy aqquiring a shop to do bussiness from and they also sooping into their brother's love life in the process.

"Still seeing..."

"Miss DeLacour then..."

"Are you going"

"To actually ask her"

"To marry you"

"Soon?" They ended together.

Bill smiled to himself. Whenever he thought about the French witch, it felt as if his heart was soaring. Plus it seemed as though his mother was warming up to her a bit more every day. But then his face grew dark, Ginny and her damn insults.

"I intend on asking her when the time is right you guys." They walked a few more steps, "What has been going on lately? Gin is acting... different?"

The twins looked at each other and then at Bill.

"When did you say you"
"Were going to visit Charlie?"
"Because we are going with you."

They once again ended together.

Bill frowned, "Why do I have a feeling I am not going to like this story?"

The twins looked at each other again, then looked at Bill and shrugged with grim looks on their faces.

Draco was pacing his bedroom. His mother was home again for a while and he was not in the mood to act all high and mighty future death eater around her. He just sent a note to his father warning him that she was home. All he could do was hope it reaches his father in time.

He stood still, hearing footsteps coming towards his room. The steps stopped outside his room, and then, continued further down the corridor towards the library. He let the breath he was holding, out. This is riddiculous! He turned around and kicked his one dresser, he swore out in frustration.

Turning around he came face to face with his father's wolf patronus.

"Draco, I need you to pack your belongings. I am sending you to one of the other manors." His father's voice came through and just as soon as the message was delivered, the patronus dissapeared.

Draco frowned. His father knew something was going to happen and he himself felt that there was going to be a large shocker before the week is out. As he was opening his trunk, a grey owl sat pecking at his window. He opened the window for the owl to fly in. He looked at both parchments before taking the one addressed to him. He fought the urge to look at the one meant for Harry Potter and let the owl go on its way.

Ginny stomped back into the Burrow. She was so upset, she didn't notice her father sitting at the kitchen table regarding his only daughter with a worried expression nor her mother standing by the side of the stairs.

"Ginerva, where have you been?" Molly Weasley chastised her daughter. Taking the very shocked but still fuming witch by her arm and dragging her up towards her room. They passed Ron on the way to Ginny's room. But before he could comprehend what was happening, Molly slammed the door shut, sealed it and cast a silencio on the room.

"Mother, I was at the Longbottom manor, I went to give Neville another dose of potion, but he blew me off!" Ginny yelled frustratingly. She was pasing in her room, mumbling incoherent thoughts. Molly looked at her with a stern expression, "Well something tells me you slipped up! Stupid girl, should have done it myself!" The two red headed women glared at each other before Molly made Ginny sit on the bed and listen to her.

"This is what we are going to do..."

Ron was munching on a fresh bun which Molly had baked. Arthur tried talking to his son but was ignored in favour of a piece of bread.

"I wonder where she put the jam this time..." Arthur looked at his son with a not very impressed impression.

"You know it is utterly unacceptable to ignore your father in favour of food!" Arthur stood up angrilly, the chair he was sitting on falling to the floor.

Ron glanced over to his father, "Not ignoring you dad, just prioritizing! Hermione always harp on how I don't do important stuff first!" Arthur was shocked. His son once again misinterpreted a message and turned it into what he wanted from it. Maybe Amos was right, his five eldest sons did get all the brains.

Andrea was standing outside in the woods once again. She finally gets permission to start helping agains Voldemort and his followers and then she loses the group she was meant to keep an eye on. She was about to set out on finding them when a white spere apeared infront of her. When the light died down, she was left with a white glass cylinder with a white rolled up note inside.

Uncapping it carefully, she opened the note and read it.

It was the last wish of your mother before she passed, that you receive a pup from the brood.

She needs a name.

O

Andrea rolled up the note and frowned. What is she?

She felt a great tug on her cloak and when she turned around, she found a small pure white wolf pup looking up at her. She smiled kindly and picked up the pup.

"Well now... What will we name you then?" The pup looked up at her with almost white blue eyes and its ears perked.

"How about Deidre?" Andrea smiled at her wolf pup. She patted her pocket to make sure that her trunk was there, then apparated away quietly. She had after all booked a cabin not far from those she was trying to protect.

Sirius poked the fish with his fork, he had a sad look on his face. Harry and Hermione noticed this and Hermione motioned for Harry to go talk to him.

Harry stood up, showing Hermine to look after his and Siius' food, before ghoing to Sirius and tapping on his shoulder.

"Yes pup?" Sirius smiled warmly at his godson. Harry smiled back, "Can we uh, talk?" Sirius got up immediatley and they went up to Sirius' room. Moving to sit on the wooden balcony with the night sounds greeting them along with the sounds of crashing waves occasionally.

"What's wrong Harry?" Sirius sat down on a chair and conjured up two butterbeers.

Harry took a butterbeer and he himself sat down. "I should be the one to ask you what's wrong? We sawe you at dinner, you were not yourself Padfoot?" Harry barreled forth. He knew if he did not speak what's on his mind, he may decide on not saying anything at all.

Sirius smiled. He thought they wouldn't notice. He really tried to not show it, but apparently he didn't do a good job of hiding it.

"Harry its nothing to serious, was just thinking that's all..." Sirius smiled. Harry for his part partially believed Sirius.

"You know as well as I do that that's not the full truth!" Harry smireked. Sirius laughed loudly.

"Well you are more like James than most people give you credit for! I never could hide anything from him!" The two laughed and fell into a comfortable silence. They drank their butterbeers and looked out towards the sea.

"Pup... I guess I honestly just feel left out romanticly," Sirius said quietly, Harry frowned. "Well with Remus and Tonks being engaged and I know you and Hermione will end up together," Harry was trying to protest but Sirius held up his hand and contiued. "I feel like the fifth wheel like muggels would say."

Harry stayed quiet for a while.

"I... Sirius, you will find someone! Even if we have to enter you into some bachelors competition or whatever! Wait a minute, why don't we just get you some more blind dates?" Sirius' eyes were large and he kept shaking his head, "Please I do not want to do that evedr again!" The two laughed again.

"What about you and miss Granger hmmm?" Sirius said with an inquiring expression.

Harry blushed and almost choked on his butterbeer.

"I doubt she like me in the same way Sirius..." Harry said with a small sad smile. Sirius laughed loudly and clapped him on his back. "Keep telling yourself that! But if I were you, I would open my eyes!" Harry stood and jokingly rolled his eyes.

"Let's go finish our dinners and maybe prank Remus some!" Sirius gave Harry a short fatherly hug and the two went downstairs to hopefully finish their dinner.

I hope it was satisfactory!

Remember, more reviews, faster updates.

I will work on longer chapters =)

Love from sunny South Africa!
