Chapter 10:

The Marauders went to their dorm for the night. Lily was asleep in the four-poster bed across from me. I was emptying my books into my drawers. What I saw confused me. There in the midst of my textbooks was a muggle notebook. Being me, I had to figure out how it got there. So I opened it and what I saw astounded me. When I first opened it. Nothing. I looked for a name of the owner of the book and then writing started to appear. I read the note. It was from Sirius. I wrote back to him.

Sirius,

What? How do you know that someone was watching me? How could you possibly know that? I made sure that no one was around when I jumped. You are being paranoid. Then I saw those eyes in my head again and a wave a nausea washed over me. I couldn't believe it. He was right. I knew it hadn't been a coincident. Sirius I need to know what you know so that I can figure a way out of this. Can you tell me who was watching me so I can watch my back.

Blair.

Well I waited a few moments the writing started to appear again.

Blair,

I know someone was watching you because Remus took his memories and put them in Dumbledore's Pensieve and he saw someone there. They thought it was me but then they made me go and look. I saw something that truly terrified me. My brother Regulus was watching from the shadows. What truly terrified me the most was that first, they thought it was me, I do not look ANYTHING like my brother. Except for our hair, eyes, and height. But other than that we are the Moon and Sun. And secondly, how could they possibly miss the Slytherin robes. You think that their head of house would have seen it? BUT NO! He just saw the eyes and was mesmerized! Not really. I bet he saw them but was in too much of a rush to blame me to mention it. That greasy git I should've knocked him out then and there. You should've seen his face! Anyways I'm rambling now so here's what's got to be done. You need to watch yourself and stay with at least one person at ALL times.

Padfoot

As I read each line my stomach got more and more knots in it. I couldn't breath. He was going to be a follower of Voldemort in a year and he saw me using my powers and that means I'm officially screwed.I wrote back a quick reply.

Sirius,

I need to figure out a plan and get some sleep so write me if anything comes up. Keep your book with you at all times and I'll do that with mine. Tell Remus that he's welcome for saving his sorry ass again! And for getting me exposed to a future death eater! If I didn't love you guys, well I wouldn't be here risking my ass. Tell him thanks for the advice on the spells oh and thanks for the warning about you. That really saved me. Love you guys so much and tell everyone I miss them!

Lots of Love,

Blair.

Once I finished writing I closed the book and put a charm on it so no one could read it but those with my consent. Thank you Fred and George, I thought as I put it away and climbed into bed. I closed my eyes fell right into a dreamless sleep.

The next morning I woke at 6:00a.m. I was awake before anyone else thanks to my early training with Remus. I had a shower and did my hair in a low ponytail and put some foundation. I was too tired to do anything else. I grabbed my wand and headed downstairs. I took my book bag with me and started reading my textbooks. By the time the James had come down I had finished Potions, Charms, and was working on Defense Against The Dark Arts.

"Good morning Piper the super hero!" said James brightly as he sat down across from me on the couch.

"How was your sleep?" he asked.

"It was okay." I said yawning.

"Doesn't look like you slept a wink." said a Sirius as he was coming down the stairs with Peter trailing behind him.

"Where's Remus?" I asked them.

" Coming, he just had to go see the Headmaster but he'll meet us at the Great Hall.

" Oh...OH, I thought as we walked to the Great Hall. We got seated and grabbed some food. Remus was talking about accommodations for his "furry little problem" as the boys put it. Remus didn't show up all breakfast so when we all headed for Transfiguration, I grabbed him a muffin off the table and wrapped it up in a napkin and put it in my bag. When he got there I pulled it out of my bag and gave it to him. He sat down and took it gratefully.

"Thank you Piper!" he said and finished it quickly before Professor McGonagall got in the room. The classes were easy because I had just learned all six years with Remus before I got here so it was all fresh in my brain. I was getting good at not looking behind my back every two seconds now. I was doing just fine.

A couple weeks later I went to breakfast early before the boys were up. There wasn't a lot of students around and there was only one Ravenclaw, four Hufflepuffs, six Gryffindors, and two Slytherins in the Great Hall. I felt I was being watched so I looked behind me. From the Slytherin table I could make out a girl with brown hair and a boy with raven black hair. Quite handsome really, nice hair, nice features, and... his eyes. He had storm grey eyes. I started to panic. I was told NEVER to be alone and the one time I don't listen who shows up but that kid! God I had the worst luck. Trying not to give myself away I grabbed my bag slowly and started speed walking out the door. I thought that I'd lost him but to my dismay I turned the corner and slammed into him. His books flew everywhere and I landed ungracefully on my ass.

"Watch where you're going." said the boy not looking up yet. Thank god, I thought getting to my feet. I spoke too soon. He looked up or looked down really. He was about a foot taller than me. He stopped and we stared in silence for a minute, then he grabbed my sleeve and dragged me into a deserted classroom. Clearly scared now I could see no emotion whatsoever from this kid. It was starting to freak me out. He started pacing and rounded on me, not unlike when Professor Snape did frequently.

"I know what you are." he said, emotion still lacking in his voice. Trying to put on a brave face I said,

"So what are you going to do about it?"

"I don't know. I've been contemplating it for quite some time. I really should turn you in, but..." he said turning towards me again.

"But what?" I asked.

" I really don't need a pissed of wiccan after me." he said wearing a smirk that would rival Draco Malfoy's. I guess it must be a Slytherin thing.

"You're right I would be pissed." I said smiling ruefully.

"And I also don't need a pounding from a very unhappy brother." he said smiling fully, showing off a set of gorgeous white teeth. He looked a lot like his brother. Not that I was complaining.

"So what are we going to do?" I asked.

"Well I won't say anything if you won't. My parents won't be happy if they ever found out what I know, but they were always too uptight as it is." he said holding out his hand.

"Thank you so much, you don't know how much this means to me." I said smiling and shaking his hand. He opened the door to leave and turned to me and said,

"I think what you did not caring who was around, risking yourself for someone else, well I think we need more people like you Miss Wolfe." he said smirking, then turning on his heel, Regulus Black walked out the door leaving me speechless.
