Aril loved the house she lived in with the Cullens and the Pack. A week after school Carlisle sent the Pack back to Forks to visit their families. Embry's mother was delighted that her son was excepted in a private boarding school on a full scholarship. She still missed him, but saw the good the school was doing him. "She won't shut up about how she just wishes it wasn't closer to home," he wrote in his rs.
Aril spent the summer in the woods behind the house. She skipped merrily and danced in the grassy meadows. "The summer's done her good." Edward said smiling at the girl. "I'm glad she's back to normal." Mickey agreed. Edward smiled at the boy, "Oh there are things still bothering her, but yes she's as normal as she could be."
Aril read the Daily Prophet everyday and so she saw when one Sirius Black escaped Azkaban. It was on the news too.
The group just managed to make it on the train. Carlisle and Esmae had left for Hogwarts a few days before. Ginny found them and quickly told them about how Harry blew up his aunt. They were still laughing about it when Harry, Ron, and Hermione came into the compartment. "So Harry, how'd you like blowing up your aunt?" Mickey asked. More laughter and the group settled back for the train ride.
The first few weeks flew by for Aril. She watched the news as a full out manhunt ensued for Sirius Black. When Halloween came and Sirius's first break in happened all the teachers searched. Dumbledore even called on the Cullens for help. Normally the Cullens would either meet in Carlisle and Esmae's office or go hunting in the mountains. They did not want to hunt the magical creatures that resided in the Enchanted Forest.
Aril, Mickey, the Pack and Ginny all lay together not too far from where Harry, Ron and Hermione lay. Aril didn't want to talk much about the break in. She had her own worries, and the break-in meant that one of the people she secretly admired was in danger. To Aril Harrry Potter wasn't just the Boy-who-lived, he was a born fighter. He had skills in the fighting arts, and even though it was defensive Harry knew enough that he could turn the defensive skills around to attack his enemies. Luck may have been on his side with the snake, but it was mostly him. And this man that everyone feared was after him and had just broken in. She thtime about it knowing that the Cullens would find him. Secretly though something told her they would intentionally let him go. She wasn't surprised then when the next day he still wasn't caught.
When the next break-in came Aril knew she had to talk to the Cullens alone. At breakfast Edward came and she walked with him to Carlisle and Esme's office. He had heard her thtimes and knew that if Carlisle did not specifically ask for her the rest of the group would try to come. As it was Mickey and Embry both wanted to go. Embry stopped though when he saw the pleading look in Aril's eyes, but Mickey would not drop the subject.
When they finally came to the office she found all the vampires there. Carlisle smiled as he motioned for the two arrivals to take a seat. "He's innocent isn't he?" Aril asked immediately. "And how would you know this?" Carlisle asked. "Because he came to Hogwarts and he knew everyone would probably be at the feast. People may be right about him not knowing the exact date, but wouldn't he have figured it out from all the Muggle decorations and the fact that the halls were completely empty? Also, I know that even if he's an animagus you guys would have found him easily. The fact that you didn't bring him in helps his case. Then on the second attempt he went for Ron Weasley not for Harrry Potter." Carlisle nodded then asked, "If he's so innocent then why does he keep breaking in?" "I haven't quite figured that out yet, but I think it has something to do with Ron. Maybe Ron has something, I don't know." Esme smiled at the girl. "You are correct about his innocents." Edward said. "Harry doesn't know though. We can't tell anyone about this. If they figured out he would be in a lot of danger." Aril nodded. "Are you going to help him?" "We non't know yet. We may take an active part in it, or we may just sit back and keep an eye on him."
Aril kept quite about what she knew. She did her school work and watched the quidditch matches. She loved flying and often wished she could join the team. Life at school went on as always.
Then one evening the Cullens called for Aril. "Harry and his friends are being taken to his hide-out. We must make sure he explains." Aril nodded and hurried along with them to the tree. Alice darted to the trunk and froze it so that Aril could get into the tunnel. The group followed the passage to the Shrieking Shack.
They arrived shortly after Professor Lupin. Sirius smiled at the Cullens who had let him escape on both counts. "Carlisle Esme," Lupin said shocked. Then his eyes fell on Aril and he frowned. Edward laughed quietly. "If anyone should be accused of helping Sirius Black then myself and my family are the ones who should be blamed Ron." "Which-what," Ron stammered. "We could have brtime him in when he first showed up at Hogwarts." "Why didn't you?" Hermione asked. "It is not for me to explain but for Sirius Black." "Why is Ms. Raziela here then?" Lupin demanded. "Aril knew since the second attack that he's innnocent." "But he isn't!" Ron bellowed.
Aril waited silently. "Explain Sirius." Carlisle said softly.
After stunning Snape and Sirius explaining everything the group headed back up to the castle. When Lupin changed Sirius and the Cullens protected the humans. Harry cried out as Peter Petigrew tried to escape, but then Bella caught him and she carried him and Aril back to the castle. Aril couldn't do much now with a werewolf, and Bella knew that if anything happened to her Jacob would probably tear Sirius and Lupin apart not to mention the Cullens as his best friend would have been destraught.
Aril watched from a classroom window with Bella as the werewolf took off for the trees closely followed by the rest of the Cullens and Sirius. Then the dementors started coming. Bella and Aril started for Dumbledore's office. Noone seemed around as Bella led the way.
When they reached the office Dumbledore answered their knocks. "Sirius Black did not kill Peter Petigrew." Aril gasped as Bella showed him the rat. Dumbledore nodded and quickly turned Petigrew back into a human. Then he swept off to help protect Sirius after sending the minister a rather.
Aril went back to bed while Bella watched Peter closely. Then Peter was taken to Azkaban and Sirius was set free.
(I put all of Prisoner of Azkaban in one chapter because apart from helping Sirius Aril did not do mch I might do this for other books depending on when the climatic scene occurs.)
