P.S.: EdwardAnthonyMasenCullen1918- Yes I did read it and I have a few tricks up my sleeve~ But I'm very excited for the new Potter movie but I can't say it's a Potter movie, just another extension of the magical world that J.K Rowling had created. I'm very curious on how it will turn out.

The Yoshinator- Welcome back! :D

(*Updated)

Dumbledore rushed in with Severus and Minerva to a wizard hospital. They all walked with long strides to the emergency room with one of the healers guiding them to a bed. The white walls and white curtains didn't help with the fear they all had in their minds, though Severus was able to mask what he felt better that Albus and Minerva. They entered to the room with only one bed with the curtains surrounding it. The healer pulled the curtains back to show a figure laying in the bed, covered by the sheet. Minerva gasps,

"No…"

Minerva grasps Albus' hand as Severus walked up to the bed. He slowly pulled the sheet to expose the figure's face as he heard Minerva give out a small cry with even Albus furrowing his brows together.

It was Serenity. Her once youthful face was now pale and grey, with the hollows in her cheeks and all the color gone. Her once vibrate healthy hair was now a dull brown and her eyes. They were open but the lights from them were gone. Severus moved his hand over them to close her eyes as he heard Albus ask,

"What happened to her?"

"Well it appears when she was alone, someone had poison her food with snake venom of unknown species, that one drop was enough. They left no trace of it, but once entered her system it was a very quick and painless death...We are deeply sorry for the lost of your student, Headmaster."

Albus walked out with Minerva to speak more in depth of what may have occurred while Severus stayed behind. He sat next to the bed as he couldn't help but feel something break inside of him, as if time had stop to a pit of nothing but pain. He slowly reached out to touch her hand but felt something in it. He opened her hand to find a small note.

Dear loved ones,

After the death of Thomas, I realized I cannot bear to live in a world where I already know what will happen to everyone. Please do not cry nor mourn for me for I was too weak to live through the pain. I tried to be strong but it was too much and I had to leave…I really did try but it was too much… I will watch all of you from the morning skies to the midnight night stars.

I love you all,

-Serenity Alice B. Aragon

Albus came back alone to the room as Severus handed the note to Albus. The shock in the man's eyes appeared as he slowly sank to the chair next to Severus as for the first time in a long time he saw the headmaster grieve. He did not cry nor make a sound, he just closed his eyes for a long time.

"...Albus...What is this?"

After almost half and hour past Albus looked at Severus.

"What is what Severus?"

Severus pointed at the B initial in Serenity's name as Albus took a look.

" The B in her name. What does it stand for?"

"...I trust you will tell no one of this...Her full name is Serenity Alice Black Aragon…"

Severus looked at the headmaster as he looked down at the note.

"That's not possible, the only living Black is a fugitive and the other died with no wife. She can't be a Bl-"

"You forget...Jonathan."

"Jonathan? Jonathan who?"

"His name was Jonathan Aragon…He was the "mistake" Orion Black made with a woman in secret…"

"Yes, yes…The bastard…Then he married to whom?"

Albus couldn't even look at Severus, all he could do was stare at Serenity's corpse as his hand gently patted hers.

" ...To Amelia Evans...Lily Evans' younger sister."

Severus suddenly stood up as he looked down at the elderly man.

"What. Did. You. Say."

"Now Severus this isn't the time nor pla-"

"She's Lily's niece!...That means she's Potter's…"

"Cousin...Severus, no one was to know about her. She was a secret that her parents took to the grave and I respected her parents' wishes…"

Severus couldn't help but suddenly felt the pain increase inside of him as he slowly stumbled out of the room.

"Severus? Severus!"

He ignored the elderly wizard as he walked through the halls of the hospital to the Floo chambers where patients and visitors came in and out of. He entered one and muttered Hogwarts, back to the school. He managed to floo to his private chambers as he stumbled out and fell onto the floor. He reached out to leaned against the couch as he pointed his wand to start the fire at the fireplace. He kicked off his shoes and tossed his heavy cloak away as he used his arms to position himself in the couch, laying there as he took the bottle of firewhiskey from the small table next to the couch and poured himself a glass.

"...Amelia Evans and Jonathan Aragon...The bastard son of Orion Black…"

After a couple more glasses of firewhiskey, his mind wandered off to deep thought of those two, trying to remember what they were like. As his mind traveled off into the depths of his memory he recalled seeing them once in the library.

Severus sat in the quietest part of the library, far away from everyone else until he heard footsteps approaching. He glanced up from where he sat to see a golden hair girl want through, looking at each and every book with gentle green eyes. Her features were familiar but she wore a blue uniform of Beauxbaton, who were visiting for the triwizard tournament. She kept on walking, looking for a book until she noticed Severus in the darkness.

"Oh I'm sorry for disturbing you but could I quickly have that book above you?"

Severus reached with one arm to take out the book and handed it to her, getting a good look at her face as he suddenly gasped,

"Lily?"

"Lily? Oh you must be talking about my older sister."

"Amelia? Amelia where are you?"

Someone called out for the girl's name as she gave Severus a gentle smile,

"I need to go but pleasure to meet you."

She ran off as Severus watched to see her go to a boy that also looked like about the same age as her. She ran into the boy's arms as he glance to see Severus and also gave a polite nod and smile. The boy looked like Sirius Black but later on was known to be the bastard Black son.

The next day Severus sat in the library at the same spot and saw the girl again. She had the book from before and looked like she was trying to remember where to put it back. Soon she saw him and gave a brilliant smile as she asked,

"Hope you don't mind helping me out again Sev?"

He hadn't heard that nickname in a long time as he gave a low grunt and helped her place the book away. He sat back down on the floor to read, but soon she sat on the floor across from him, leaning her back against the bookshelf.

"…What do you want?"

"Nothing, just wondering when you're going to finally crack a smile."

He looked up at her and glared while she gave a little grin,

"You used to look a lot happier and nicer when you smiled."

"I don't know what you're talking about."

She giggled as she parted her hair in half and used her hands to bunch up hair on both sides to look like pigtails. Then he remembered that when he used to play with Lily when they were younger, her little sister would always bring them snacks. She never really ate with them because she was too little and always had nap time.

"Ahhh, remember now? You used to always say thank you and give me a flower."

"…That was a long time ago…I don't even talk to your sister anymore."

"But you want to…"

"Well aren't you psychic." He hissed at her, making her roll her eyes at him.

"You could say that…I'm just saying Sev…Just make peace with yourself. You were a young kid, and the word slipped…Say sorry and try to get along with the four idiots as well. They aren't all bad…Stupid but not bad."

"Amelia! Where are you? We promised to meet everyone by the lake."

Jonathan came over and saw them. He gave Severus a nice wave hello and helped Amelia up. Before they left Jonathan left a bottle of butterbeer and some cauldron cakes he got from Hogsmeade just because he wanted to. They both left the library, leaving Severus alone with his books and his little "gifts."

Severus opened his eyes as he remembered whenever he would see them they would politely smile and wave hello though Severus was his usual cold self. They were a unique pair as they not only hung out with Lily and James, with their friends, but made friends in all the schools in various houses. Amelia was much like her sister as was Jonathan to Sirius, on the easy going part not the bulling bit, but they would never sneer nor be rude to him. Instead they were quite polite and kind to him.

But they died, as did Lily and now…I couldn't protect her…

He made a promise to protect Harry but now he just made a huge mistake. What would Lily think of him now if she were still alive and knew what he did. He never knew about Serenity and never protected her...He felt as if he failed Lily again and now another precious person was gone. With this frustration and anger he threw the glass at the wall and just took the bottle of firewhiskey in his hand by the neck and drank a large gulp. The burn in his throat couldn't compare to what he felt in his soul.

Usually he never drank this much but he felt so much anguish and fury but knew he couldn't do anything. He got up and stumbled a bit as he walked, drunkenly somehow made it to his desk. He plops on his chair and took another gulp of firewhiskey and let the liquid burn down his throat. His eyes were a bit blurry as he looked to the small vial that Serenity gave him as a gift…

I never even taught her advanced potions like she was meant too...Instead I treated her as if she were a disease…Yet she treated me…like a human being…

She had seen sides of him yet she still smiles at him every now and again. She, who had a flame of courage yet keeps fears and hides them away. This gentle girl who would test his patience, fight him, and even comfort him, would also test intellect like no other student had before. He couldn't believe that the one person that made him feel with so much emotion again was gone, and now he truly received his punishment… This sin of a girl, a girl related to Lily, died on his watch...And he can never bring her back. The only thing he could do was keep her secret of lineage locked up, like the rest of his secrets that he holds as he quietly dozed off to deep slumber.

"…Wish I said goodbye to them."

"You can see them later. If you reveal yourself now this will all be for waste."

Serenity sat in the airplane with Magnus as they waited for their flight. She felt sick to her stomach on what they had done as she gave out a little sigh and said in a soft tone.

"How did you get the body to look like me?"

"Oh give a person a drink from the Fey that was specially concocted...Kind of like the weak thing you people call Polyjuice potion but lasts much longer."

"I see...You used an already dead body then and added the poison?"

"Mhm...The poison is so strong that after they discover it's you, the body will disintegrate to dust in a matter of hours."

Serenity looked at Magnus in the eyes as she said,

"Thank you for doing all of this."

Not only did he help fake her death, he did something that she didn't have the guts to do.

Late in the night, Bobby rocked himself back and forth on the floor. He cackled out as he saw a shadow come into him room as he grinned,

"Ahhhh Welcome back Witch, come to kill me?"

Serenity stood there looking at Bobby in disgust as Magnus followed next to her. He made them temporarily invisible to sneak into the hospital as Serenity took out her wand.

"Exactly."

"Fine, kill me then."

She raised her wand and pointed at him, making Bobby flinch. He didn't think she would take the bluff as he started to sweat, but soon she placed her wand down. Instead she reached out and touched his head with just a finger and saw the past, but strangely in a new view point. She could see him alone, no loving family, no friends, no one to even reach out to love him. She placed her hand away as she looked back at the boy.

"…I can't do it…"

Magnus stood quietly as he flickered his cat like eyes at Bobby.

"Why? Isn't this what you want? Revenge."

"But…I know Thomas wouldn't have wanted me to do this…"

Bobby gave out a cackled laughter as he sputtered out,

"You made him your follower, you infected him!"

"No Bobby…I loved him like a brother. We wanted to love you too but you were afraid to let anyone in. So afraid that you truly believed that if anyone got close to you, they would just end up hurting you just like your parents…Yet at that orphanage all we wanted to do was to help you, and in return you killed the one who was most loved there…"

She put her wand away but felt Magnus' hand on her shoulder.

"If I may…"

She looked to see him move over to Bobby, who was still stuck in his straitjacket. He tried to move away but Magnus placed a finger on the boy's forehead. Soon Bobby stopped squirming and just stared. His eyes were now frozen with horror as he grew quiet. Serenity quickly grabbed Magnus' arm, removing his finger away from the boy.

"What did you do?"

"…I just showed him a taste of what you see."

"You don't mean-"

"He just saw what his life could have been, if he didn't kill your friend…Or harm you."

Serenity looked back at Magnus while their flight still hadn't departed yet.

"Hey Magnus…How were you able to give Bobby those so called vision? I never had any for him."

He looked back at her and gave a little grin.

"Because I made them up."

"Excuse me?"

"Mhm…You see, you can make fake memories. Those memories won't be considered fake if you really believe they're real. So I just made a fake vision in my head of what the boy would have been like, added a few random people here and there, and tada! One fake vision to go."

"What if I tapped into your brain? Wouldn't I see it being fake?"

"Ah, true. At the pub I let you see a little slice of me. What you saw, some of it was fake and others were real. I just like to mix them in to confuse people."

She gave a little grin as she nudged him on the side.

"So you skinny dipping in the Nile was fake then right?"

"Well…It is on my list of things to do."

They both laughed before she gave a soft sight.

"Really though…Thank you for doing all of this."

"Don't thank me just yet, we still need to finish up our deal…"

"Don't worry, I won't forget…But what did you let him see?"

Magnus glanced back at her and replied back,

"It was him with an adoptive family with two other children. I gave him little glimpse of him getting older, going to a nice University, meeting a nice girl, marriage, etc. etc."

"…That doesn't sound bad at all. Why did he act like you gave him something horrible?"

"Well my dear the worse thing is wanting the one thing you cannot have. So for poor little Bobby, all he wanted was a family to love him and get what he believes is a normal life, basically believing he deserved happiness. Now that he's locked up, he now believes he missed the chance to get the one thing he has desired for years."

"Oh…"

"Mhm…Now put your seatbelt on, we're about to take off and remember your name is not Serenity anymore, it's just Alice...Alice Black"

He turned to her and gently placed a hand over hers. She leaned her head against his shoulder as she whispers,

"Of course…My name is Alice…Black…"

The plane lurched to go up while Valiant whimpered in his kennel. After Valiant got hurt from the tussle with Bobby, she healed him up before giving him a shrinking potion. Allowing Valiant to get to a size to get him to board with them. She quietly looked out the window with an ache in her heart that she wouldn't be with everyone for a while. She stuck a finger into Valiant's cage on her lap to rub his forehead, making him relax a bit… Serenity slowly closed her eyes, as the plane went up in full flight to her new destination: New York.
