Chapter One: Flashback Memories!
It's not every day that you reach that time in your life when you decided to make a change, an escape route for everything that's been happening around you. A way to just be who you are without everyone pushing you in the direction they want you to be in or the expectations and criticisms of everyone around you by putting the responsibilities on your shoulders.
There's a time on a certain point where I'm in where I am right now and you're probably wondering who exactly am I aren't you? Just bear with me and my story will come to light. Let's start at the beginning from the age of one. I've been famous from something I didn't even know until I learned the truth from my friend Hagrid, he's a half giant who's has a gentle and kind soul but, people judged him for being a half giant due to racism and prejudice inside the Wizarding World. I wasn't sure what brought them to hate giants but, to me he's a gentle soul man who I'm proud to call my friend, who's like an uncle to me.
My whole life has been hard and difficult if you can call it that by the time, I was old enough to handle the chores that my aunt and uncle would set for me. At first it started with light chores like helping my aunt with cooking in the kitchen and cleaning by the age I turned four years old. From gardening and picking up after my cousin Dudley, all the laundry and the rest of the housework weren't always that bad but, they started telling me what to do since I can remember slavery away by the time, I turned six.
Once I was tall enough to be seen above the bench, cooking all the meals were set for me and failure wasn't exactly an option for me. Punishment for the small things even if it's not my fault was pretty harsh. I would be whipped with an iron cord then put under boiled water calling me a 'freak' until I would scream in pain. My aunt, being my mum's older sister sometimes would stop her husband Vernon but, eventually when she looked at me in the eyes, she'd tend my wounds and had this sad look by telling me not to ask any more questions so I didn't and once she was done, she left without looking back. It was one of those things that I have always wondered what she's thinking about and wondered why she'd help me but, the subject was never answered or came up so I never bothered to ask since.
If it was burnt food, the grass or flowers were wilted, I would end up being beaten up then locked up inside my cupboard under the stairs for a week with no food or water the entire time. Sometimes I wondered why Dumbledore would leave me here but, apparently my aunt who's my sister's older sister is the only family I have left…so I had no other family in both sides of my parents where I felt truly alone. During those times I thought about not finishing any of my chores, ignoring every little whine and whim from my bratty cousin yet somehow, I end up being beaten up to a bloody pulp and forced to give my uncle pleasure anytime he wished. By the time I turned nine he would rape as a form of punishment to break me more than I already had. I felt disgusted when I realize what he did but, no one came to rescue or save me from them is where I felt truly alone.
By the time I turned 11 years old my prayers were finally answered or so I thought, my life changed majorly due to being informed that I'm a wizard which they failed to tell me until Hagrid came to my rescue and I mean literally rescued me. In fact a very famous wizard so you can see I was placed with my relatives after my parents were killed by a very dark powerful wizard 'Lord Voldemort' or better known as 'you-know-who' he's a half blood wizard but, everyone feared him unless you're in his side then that's a different story. The night my parents were murdered Voldemort tried to kill me by using a dark curse but, the killing curse backfired thanks to my mum's powerful protection spell 'by love' as Headmaster Dumbledore claimed and told me in my first year but, I'll explain that later. Anyway, all I was left was a lightning shaped scar on my forehead that night and I'm the only person to survive from a dark curse.
To say that I was in shocked was an understatement of the year to realize that my parents didn't die in a car crash, which was claimed by my uncle (rolls my eyes) when it wasn't true, they got murdered by a dark wizard, a mad man who's a half-blood wizard where everyone in the Wizarding World feared the most as if my life hasn't been stressful enough. To top that off that I wasn't normal and didn't have to stay at the Dursley's anymore was too much that I ended up fainting. Yeah, I know but, can you blame me I was in shock. By the time I arrived in Hogwarts thanks to Hagrid who helped me gather my supplies by taking me to the train station only to leave me there due to being busy, luckily, I found my way to the train.
By the time I arrived in Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry my life didn't exactly get any better though. Instead of being abused, raped among other things which I refuse to talk about I ended up being in dangerous situations where I had a mad man (evil wizards) by using different tactics to try to kill me again. These past seven years of school not only I had to deal with a psychopath name Tom Riddle, also known as Voldemort trying to kill me every year which he failed to do. I had a teacher who hated the ground I walked on and the very air I breathed belittling me at every chance he got since my first day in Hogwarts. I never did anything to him as far as I know but, apparently which I learned the hard way was that my dad bullied him in their school days—thus gave him the revenge against me, apparently, he held a huge grudge against my dad and his friends by bullying his only son.
Oh and let's not forget about the man that I thought I could trust completely trying to sculpt me into a perfect weapon that did as I was told with little information as possible. A weapon that would be able to get rid the Wizarding World of their version of 'Hitlter' as lack of a better world and to save countless of lives by surrendering mine. Although not everything was bad in my school years, I made friends who became my true best friends for first year and learned a few things along the way. Although during my years in school I wasn't entirely alone but, sometimes I felt that I was alone though. My last year of school I didn't attend Hogwarts instead I spend on the run hunting little bits of Voldemort's soul, that year taught me a lot about my friends.
What exactly did I learn? Let's see it taught me at times things can be a bit bumpy you don't get to see of true sense of someone's character, which times get rough and there's little hope you learn everything that you need to know about them.
Let's start with my friends, shall we? My very first friend besides Hagrid was Ronald B. Weasley, who was there all through my first three years. By the time we reached 4th year jealously and lack of trust started to form that cracked our friendship that left me to turn to my other friend Neville Longbottom. I always knew he had my back no matter what he never seems to fail me before so why not start now right. Despite how we were never close but, it changed in our 4th year that I learned things about Neville that I never knew about before and always been in my side along with my other best friend Hermione Granger who has always been there for me through everything and hasn't once let me down.
During our 4th year—I learned that my best friend, who's like a sister to me Hermione has an older brother name Jacob who attends to our school but, he's in a different house. It made me curious so I asked her about it once, she shrugged stating that neither Ron nor I haven't once asked her about her family besides school which made me realize she's right so I apologized about it which she waved it off knowing that it wasn't my fault since sometimes I would ask her about helping me with homework but, not always mostly with potions though since I'm not good at it I suppose I'm average good.
Anyway, her older brother Jacob, goes by Jay for short is the same age as Fred and George Weasley, who are twins and happened to be Ron's and Ginny's older brothers. Yes they're a big family first there's Bill, the eldest brother then Charlie, Percy, Fred, George then Ron and Ginny being the only girl—I'll get back to them in a bit but back to my story though Hermione explained that her parents are expecting a baby—not one, not two, three or four but, five—yes you heard me right—Quints all five of them; you can imagine my shock that I was gawking and gaping at her in shock, stunned by the news but, happy for her parents though they're nice and sweet people. I met them a few times and we're pretty close.
Hermione rambles when she gets excited about something especially becoming a big sister to the Quints and also explained that she's going to be an auntie, godmother to her soon to be nephews—which are Jacob's and Mal's children who are twins—twin boys to be exact as he's already married. Apparently, Jay's in Hufflepuff like Cedric which I never knew about, I guess it's because he's always in the background being best friends with Cedric, who's in Quidditch as a Chaser, Perfect and Head Boy when he graduated without his best friend. It was hard for him without Cedric on his side but, he fell in love with his nemesis who turned to his friend, best friend, girlfriend to the love of his life, wifey and mother of their children name Maliyah. She even stated that she's going to be in her mum's strict healthy diet by eating lots of fruits and vegetable les nodding to herself, again I continued to gape at her like a fish.
By the time it was the middle of October—I believed I met Jacob, known as Jay in Halloween, when he was taking his girlfriend Mal on a date in Hogsmeade where Hermione introduced us to each other—her older brother Jay he's pretty tall, chestnut brown hair with shaggy spiky hair, pretty muscular and had that bad boy look with an earring on his left ear. To say that he's Cedric's best friend in Hufflepuff before he was murdered during the tournament thanks to Wormtail—orders from Voldemort, he noticed my expression. He told me that he doesn't blame me for Cedric's death apparently Hermione told him what happen inside the maze since he was worried for Mal that time—her parents got murdered that same week so it was pretty emotional for both Jay and Mal where she lost her twin sister Sophia that same week.
I asked him once how come I never seen you or Mal before he just told me that "I hang out with Cedric sometimes but, because of Cho Chang who kept clinging on him I didn't want to be around her in the same place as he was despite being his best friend plus Mal and Cho don't get along with each other so I had to make sure there's no hexes between them. They're sworn enemies to each other," he pointed out.
I titled my head "How come?"
"We never get along since our first day plus she kept bullying my friend Luna and my younger sister Sophy I wasn't going to let anyone bully my sister and friend like that. This was before Sophy got killed with my parents though,"
"That's horrible I'm sorry to hear that…how did they die if you don't mind asking?"
"Thank you Harry I appreciate that and no I don't mind…I need to talk about it to heal myself my sister Sophy got killed with my parents thanks to the death eater. It was a woman,"
"A woman?"
"Yes, she has a bad reputation…Bellatrix Lestrange,"
"BELLATRIX LESTRANGE!?"
"Yes…do you know her?"
"….yes, I know her,"
"How do you know her?"
"….We've met a few times…she's the one that nearly killed my—"
"You mean your godfather Sirius?"
Harry looked startled by this looking at Hermione who looked away "Mione that was supposed to be a secret,"
"I didn't tell Jay or Mal; they figured it out on their own Harry,"
"How?"
"It's kind of obvious plus I can never keep secrets from Jay. He knows me too well,"
"It's true I do know my sister way too well along with my lovely future wife here,"
Mal however, blushed at this while Hermione giggled.
"So wait a minute how do you know Luna?" I gawked at the girl causing her to nod at this "Since when and how did you know that Sirius is my godfather was it that obvious"
"Well considering Luna is in Ravenclaw as I am while Jay is in Hufflepuff. I always been Luna's friend since her first day along with Sophy but, this was before Sophy got killed…and yes it's very obvious Harry I'm sorry I didn't mean to ruin your secret which confirms my theory from Mio as she told me and Jay everything after that" Mal explained.
"I understand why you did and I'm sorry to hear about your parents and your sister. I know how that feels even if it's for a short while and I just don't want Sirius to get in trouble over this. I'm a bit protective with him,"
"And we understand that since I feel the same way I know Sirius for a short while…before things got out of hand so I get it…" Jay explained.
"That's true and I'm sorry that you lost your parents as well that must've been really hard at a young age. Thank you, Harry,I-I appreciate that it's a good thing that Mio and Jay's parents took me in when they learned the news. They immediately adopted me into their family once we got married since I already considered them as 2nd parents anyway,"
"That's good at least you have them,"
"You also have them too Harry they both love you, especially daddy,"
"Your dad?"
"Yes, he's very fond of you he's not usually fond with a lot of boys that I talk too but, for you he respects and very fond of you. You remind him of someone that he used to know and he vowed to himself to protect you from harm,"
"Really I never knew that why you didn't tell me?"
"You never asked but, I can tell you have so many questions so ask away Harry,"
"How long were you and Mal together for?"
"Almost 4 years actually," Jay smirked giving a playfully wink to Hermione who giggled as if they knew what that wink meant "I'm actually planning on taking her away for the weekend. Professor Sprouts and Professor Flitwick said it was allowed," he explained.
"Really?" I began to say, shocked on the news "Is that even allowed?" I asked.
"Of course it's allowed as long as we come back by the end of the weekend, I'm sure it will be fine, don't worry I wouldn't miss the tournaments of my best friend Cedric's big debut or miss yours Harry," Jay explained.
"Wait, wait, wait what you know who I am," I asked.
"Of course Mio told me all about you," Jay smirked at this while Hermione whistled looking away "Why? Was I not supposed to not know about you," he explained?
"No, no, it's not that at all it's just …I hope you don't take this the wrong way but, this is the first time that Mione told me that she has a brother, a sibling that's all," I told him.
"Understandable, Mio doesn't usually talk about our family anyway—a lot of people would've taken advantage of her because of it," Jay explained.
"What do you mean?" I asked curiously.
"Maybe one day Mio will tell you but, for now I should get gong we're going to be late for our date," Jay explained.
"Go, go we'll see you later big brother," Hermione waved it off knowing her brother is very busy "I'll see you guys in Monday right," she explained.
"Tuesday, we'll be back by Tuesday since we don't have any classes on Monday," Mal explained.
"Oh right Memorial Day, well I'll see you guys on Tuesday have fun," Hermione explained.
"Trust me we will," Jay smirked giving a playfully wink causing Mal to swat him on the shoulder "Kidding, I'm kidding pretty girl, see you guys later and it was nice to finally meet you, Harry. We should hang out some time," he explained.
"You too it was nice meeting you too both and yeah that be great. Maybe we can play Quidditch against each other or something," Harry offered.
"I would love that a lot actually since Mio here is pretty hard to beat," Jay explained.
"Huh what do you mean—" Harry was cut off by Hermione.
"J.J. that was supposed to be a secret honestly," Hermione huffed at this causing Harry to raise his eyebrow at his best friend "Don't look at me like that…. I just don't like to show off especially with Quidditch," she explained.
"And how did I not know that I thought you're afraid of heights," Harry replied.
"I am afraid of heights but, thanks to …Theseus and Newt I managed to overcome my fears and I'm a completely natural on the broom now," Hermione murmured.
"Who?"
"Theseus and Newt,"
"And may I ask who are Theseus and Newt"
"My boyfriend's silly,"
"BOYFRIENDS AS IN PLURAL!?"
"Yes….well look at the time I should go byeeee"
"Yo-y-y-y-y—get back here missy you're not getting away that easily," Harry yelled after her as Hermione giggled and ran off causing the two best friends to run inside the Pug where Hermione sat down on their original spot "That—that was not funny Mione," he muttered under his breath.
"Sorry but, what do you think of my brother Jay and his girlfriend Mal?" Hermione asked.
"He seems pretty chill, calm and cool for someone who's in Hufflepuff and Mal's pretty sweet too, are they always like that," Harry asked.
"Of course they're merely opposites of each other Jay has a bad boy reputation along with Mal but, they're more …pretty low key unlike Malfoy," Hermione scoffed at this noticing the Slytherins were heading their way "Speaking of Slytherins let's find another table," she explained.
"Good idea come on," Harry muttered under his breath as he covered them both under the invisibility cloak and managed to escape without the Slytherins knowledge.
"So now what?" Hermione asked.
"We must as well head to our original spot before heading to the Three Broomstick Inn that has a pub of a mini restaurant for all students and staff in Hogsmeade," Harry began to say pondering for a moment "As I said your brother Jay seems pretty chill and calm for someone from Hufflepuff," he explained.
"Well of course he is, he's the type of person who's very chill, calm and not into the type of drama. They're both are and very mature for their age as they both keep Cedric on line at times especially J.J. he's the mature one in his group of friends," Hermione explained.
"is he really? How can you tell?" Harry asked.
"Obviously he's my big brother Harry, I know he can look imitating due to his left earring and his bad boy reputation but, he's a big softie Harry. He's very protective with me and because we're the only girls in his life besides our mum and you don't want to get in his bad side. The only reason he wanted to meet you today was because I always talk about you in our conversations despite the age difference between us," Hermione explained.
Harry's P.O.V.
"Really?" I asked.
"Yes when he's not hanging out with Cedric he'd be bound to be in the library to check in with me because he doesn't seem to like Viktor despite how he's a perfect gentleman to me but, Jay doesn't seem to like it one bit. He's quite protective with me ever since I've been gaining a lot of male population which is very doubtful," Hermione explained.
"Have you? And why doesn't he not like Krum for?" I asked.
"It's a guy thing but, Viktor hasn't done anything to harm me though so I think it's just a brother trying to protect his little sister kind of thing," Hermione explained.
"I can understand that I would've felt the same way if I had any siblings too but, why hate Viktor though?" I asked.
"Honestly Harry don't you ever pay attention. A lot of the guys were paying attention to me a lot lately ever since I tamed my hair a bit," Hermione explained.
"Well it's tamer and nicer not that it wasn't nice before but, it does look different," I began to say noticing the difference on her hair "Did you do something different on your hair," I asked curiously.
"I may've highlighted my hair to purple, you like?" Hermione asked.
"I do it's cute," I told her.
Hermione face expression fell "Cute…I was hoping …for something different…"
"Why are you trying to gain someone's attention or something?"
"No…" Hermione looked away for a moment with a distant look on her face "It's just we're going to be in war soon Harry I want to at least take the time to enjoy being a teenager and have fun before we do that," she explained.
I nodded in understanding "I know but, we have to be ready Mione," I told her.
"I know…which is why I'm starting right now before it gets dangerous. You do realize that I have to make sure my parents and the Quints are alright along with Jay and Mal with their children don't you?" Hermione explained.
"Yeah I do know and where do you plan on sending them away?" I asked
"Before the summer ends if anything no one will know where they are, you're the only person that I told besides J.J. and I have a few places on where to send them too," Hermione explained.
"Good, keep it that way you can never know who we can't trust or not," I told her.
"I'm aware," Hermione told me.
"Where are you sending them anyway?"
"Italy,"
"….I'm sorry where?"
"Italy,"
"You have relatives in Italy?"
"I do …I have uncles who live there well …technically he's my godfather but, he's very famous for what he does well not really but, he can be very intimating when he wants to be including his friends who are also my godfathers, I have a lot of uncles who are my godfathers,"
"Makes sense,"
"Yeah just wait till you meet him Harry apparently he's going to be our guest speaker next year,"
"Oh really our guest speaker huh now this intrigued me who's your uncle and don't think you can automatically change the subject about you dating two men who are brothers. Who is Theseus and Newt?"
Hermione giggled shaking her head "Oh Harry if I told you it wouldn't be a surprise trust me you don't want to get in his bad side and as for my boyfriend's their very sweet and they're the great, great grandsons of Newt and Theseus Scamander Sr," she explained.
"Who said I would and how did you meet them?"
"We're childhood friends apparently I met them in America and we been friends since then and we ended up being a couple for nearly 2 years,"
"Wow look at you, if I didn't know any better I would think you're trying to tell me something Mione,"
"I'm sure one day you'll meet them Harry they're very sweet,"
"I'm sure I will. It's not every day a guy dates my best friend,"
"Don't you mean two men Harry?"
"Right I keep forgetting,"
We ended up laughing over that and headed our way to spend the day in Hogsmeade until we headed back to Hogwarts. That was in 4th year by the end of the year things went down pretty quickly; we lost a student, a friend, a brother, a cousin, someone who you believed was innocent and didn't had to die like that. I don't think anyone expected anyone that we knew to die at that age.
This was before I learned what happen with Jay and Mal—Hermione was sitting in her original spot by the black lake and she wasn't surrounded by books as always but, painting something and I noticed tears were coming down her cheeks. I asked her what's the matter and she told me that Mal and the twins got killed. My heart broke not just for Hermione but, for Jay too because he's my friend and his family being dead; that can't be easy especially for Jay.
Apparently there was a death eaters attack in muggle London and it happened to be where Jay and Mal were living in with their children—it was a wedding gift from her parents which wasn't far from them about 20 minutes away. Neither of them expected to be attacked by Mal called for backup, which was Jay and the Aurors but, it was too late they were already dead; Mal however left a mark on the death eaters though—it broke Hermione's heart telling me what happen stating that it was so horrifying, tragic and it was something that Jay can never get out of his mind. The last time I saw Jay was 4 years ago after we won the war. It felt only yesterday when we had that conversation in the summer when we met up for lunch.
[flashback from last summer in mid-July]…
Hermione and I went to meet up to grab some lunch since it wasn't far from where she lives and met up with Jay. She hasn't seen him since the funeral, announced that he needed to go away for a while which Hermione and their parents understood why he needed to grieve in his own way; that time Jay went to visit their uncle Charlie and the twins Quinn and Alex. That time the twins were only 10 years old and they're attending Salem Academy of Magic which was located in Washington and they're excited to see their older cousin as planned. Jay refused to talk about their estrange cousin Isabella who they both detest a lot and I mean A LOT. They don't get along with her and hate her with a passion which I can understand why because she doesn't sound very nice and we finally get to meet up with Jay today for lunch.
"Mio, Harry hey! Sorry I'm late I just got back 2 days ago and had a lot to pack some stuff," Jay greeted us with a hug.
"Don't worry about it big brother," Hermione gave a small smile hugging her brother Jay by the waist "I'm so sorry about Mal and the twins…they were barley 8 months old. I know how much you loved her and celebrating your wedding anniversary no less with the twins. I was looking forward on visiting you guys and see the twins and the new baby. I'm so sorry J.J. I know how much you loved your family so much," she whispered.
"Thank you bubbles I appreciate that and don't forget that you're their godmother cookie," Jay explained.
"Really? All three of them,"
"Yes really besides you know I don't trust a lot of people with my kids except with you and Harry besides mum and dad along with the rest of our relatives don't you?"
"Yeah that's true, and I'm honored that you picked me as their godmother J.J."
"Besides being my little sister you're my best friend too besides Harry and Ron right,"
"Yeah exactly and you're my best friend too J.J." Hermione told him.
"Of course I wouldn't have it any other way and thank you for saying that cookie. I know I left without yours, mom and dad's consent but, I needed to grieve on my way and I needed to heal my heart from the tragic that happened to my family…" Jay began to say trying to hold back his tears which Hermione held her brother into a hug "And I knew Mal was looking forward on having you as a sister in-law you'll always be her sister and being a mother once again was a dream come true for the both of us…we were expecting a baby girl…and we were going to name her Liliana…Lili for short I always loved that name and she adored you the most you know being so smart and Sophy too they both loved you and I'm just sad that I don't get to see them grow up…it's hard to you know losing the love of your life along with your kids like that…" he continued to talk noticing my expression about to ask "Oh right you didn't know huh Harry sorry about that I keep forgetting you were coming. Mal and I we uh eloped when we were 17 years old in our final year where we were celebrating our 4 years anniversary and during that time we decided to get married and start our lives together. I don't regret any of that and I knew …war was coming which was why Mal and I got married. That time we were celebrating our 2 years wedding anniversary that time with our friends and family but, then the war happened and ….uhh…Bellatrix apparently found where we lived—I was at work that time and she murdered her," his voice was cracked with a deep torn emotions from trying not to break down "She was only 6 ½ months pregnant with our baby girl Liliana; our boys …Cameron and Logan they were only 1 years old and we were about to tell our parents—but, that bitch murdered her….it's a good thing that Mio killed her when she did or else I would've done it myself," he growled.
"Wait what," I turned to my best friend Hermione who had an innocent look on her face "I thought Mrs. Weasley killed her at the war," I told her.
"Nope, she killed her daughter who's a replica of her mum Bellatrix I killed the real Bellatrix with many, many weapons and my wand. I made sure of it that she wasn't coming back from the dead," Hermione explained.
"Uhhhhh Remind me to never go on your bad side Mione," I told her.
"I don't think anyone wants to be in my bad side Harry," Hermione began to say turning to Jay and I "And I know J.J. but, at least she's gone. I killed her for the both of us, for Mal, with the twins Logan and Cameron along with your future baby girl Liliana 'Lili' I did it for them, to crave justice for them not only that Mal and Sophy are one of my best girlfriends but, as my big sister too," she explained.
"And I'm very grateful for that cookie thank you and Mal would've felt the same way, you were like a sister to her besides Sophy who was also murdered by that same bitch," Jay whispered.
"Well …the feeling is mutual and good thing that I murdered that bitch Bellatrix for revenge of Mal, Sophy, the twins Cameron and Logan along with baby Lili which I'm glad to do it since it's what families are for," Hermione smirked leaving us to chuckle "Besides anyone who sees my wrath doesn't want to be in my bad side I know that for sure,"
"That's true I know I don't and I'm pretty sure half of the student population would agree with me," I announced causing us to laugh.
"Oh ha, ha, ha, ha very funny Harry," Hermione poked her tongue at me while I returned the favor causing us to laugh.
[end of flashback]…
That was one of my best days with my best friend Hermione and her brother Jay, did I failed to mention that if it wasn't for Hermione, my godfather Sirius Black wouldn't be here with us today. She saved him not once but, twice from being killed. No? Well the first time was when I learned that he's my godfather and thought he betrayed my parents when it was Peter Pettigrew another friend of theirs well former best friend but, unfortunately it didn't seem that way with Peter though. Hermione and I made sure to capture that rat and prove to everyone including the Ministry that my godfather Sirius Black was innocent so I can live with him officially. Hermione and I planned this without Ron's knowledge despite how he was there to know the truth he just couldn't come with us to save Sirius due to a broken leg so it was just the two of us.
The 2nd time was in our 5th year when I was having a vision that Sirius was tortured by Voldemort so my friends Neville, Luna, Ginny, Hermione and Ron went with me to help save Sirius inside the Ministry only it turns out to be a trap. I felt really guilty, but, that was before the Order came to save us, Sirius happened to be one of them along with Remus who was battling against the death eaters. Sirius was battling his crazy cousin Bellatrix somehow he got killed into the veil who was the only person who I considered family besides Remus and Hermione; it took a couple of days turned into weeks for Hermione to snap me out of it for me to listen that there's a way to save Sirius again as it took a couple of seconds to realize what she meant by showing me her time turner. This time she created this time turner with Jay's help as they been working on time turners for a while as they kept it to themselves as a secret only for emergencies.
So Hermione and I planned to go back in time to save Sirius back in our 5th year only this time instead of Sirius battling Bellatrix, Hermione waved her hand to freeze everyone by moving Bellatrix in front of the veil while Sirius was in the other side next to Neville. The other death eaters were captured thanks to us as we handcuffed them the muggle way so they won't leave after a few spells and hexes without their knowledge which is why I never went in Hermione's bad side she's pretty terrifying when she wants to be especially when she's angry about something.
Once we reached to Mr. Malfoy, she lets go of him as they were whispering something to each other. Mr. Malfoy nodded and said thank you to her which left me confuse. I asked Hermione about it once and she told me she'll tell me when the time is right which left me more concerned but, I trust Hermione's judgement so I wasn't worried not until 6thyear but, I'll tell you about it later there's a lot we have to discuss. Once Hermione unfroze everyone who were stunned while Bellatrix, well she was pushed and fell inside the veil, swore and yelled at Hermione who had a blank look on her face.
"DAMN YOU MUDBLOOD!? I WILL KILL YOU NEXT?!" Bellatrix yelled.
"Not if you catch me first Trixie," Hermione blankly replied which left Bellatrix to stare at her in horror.
"Ho-how did you know that name mudblood," Bellatrix screeched at her.
"What? Don't recognize your own best friend Trixie," Hermione replied with a blank look on her face before Bellatrix can reply, continuing to curse until she was gone and disappeared out of our lives forever. Our past selves went back to our original selves revealing our memories that Sirius looked so confuse but, ecstatic running to Hermione twirling her around happy.
"Kitten I don't know what you did but, whatever you just did back there is bloody brilliant. Scary and terrifying but, brilliant just like Lily sometimes you remind me of her by being her replica to begin with," Sirius exclaimed causing everyone to chuckle.
Sorry you can't even imagine how grateful that I was when Hermione saved Sirius during our battle inside the Ministry when I thought my godfather Sirius was hurt which turned out to be a trap. I apologized furiously to my friends who waved it off as they would've done anything to help Sirius especially Luna and Hermione. They both knew that Sirius meant a lot to me and yes that's what brought Sirius to be innocent where he's not charged as it was their mistake for taking him to Azkaban in the first place where he gained full custody over me and took me away from my relatives forever.
So where was I? Oh right…I was talking about Ron, wasn't I? So back to my story yeah? …Things started to be less tensed between us as he once again back by my side. By the time we left school not attending our final year in Hogwarts to search for the Horcruxes to destroy Voldemort once and for all that's when our friendship was severed destroyed completely between us. He abandoned us and when I mean us I meant—Hermione and I when things got too much for him when he was wearing the horcruxes necklace, see we were taking turns at the time so things started to get too much for Ron even when he said that I didn't have any family left. He said things that broke the camel back when he said that I was orphan, with no parents who got murdered when I was a baby, I was very peeved that time because he of all people knew how sensitive that subject was for me. Just because my parents are gone that doesn't mean that he has to be rude and insensitive about it.
Yes, Ron did come back but, our friendship was never the same after that even though he came back Hermione got so angry that she hexed him for abandoning us when things got really tough with us. He claimed that he heard Hermione's voice from the gadget that Dumbledore gave us when we thought he was killed. Apparently, he faked his death, not that I'm not relieved but, I can feel the tension in the air between him and I. I wasn't sure why but, something was off I just couldn't pinpoint what although I did notice that Hermione gave him a cold shoulder when he came back from the death; Hermione refused to answer when I asked her she just said …he has a lot to answer for and when I asked what she mean she was gone. It was one of those things that I don't want to push into her bad side so I haven't asked since.
Once the war was over, Ginny and I decided that we're better off as friends which she agreed much to my relief which she giggled as she's so glad that they can be friends before they got into a relationship the only people who wasn't happy about it was her mom Mrs. Weasley and Ron. I can understand Ron but, Mrs. Weasley was pushing me to the edge of a thin ice that it annoyed me so much that I snapped at her after she kept insisting that Ginny and I should sit next to each other when she told everyone that Neville asked her to marry her and she accepted which made everyone happy for them but, as I said Mrs. Weasley wasn't a bit happy about it.
It was very rude that Mrs. Weasley would disrespectful not just for Ginny but, for Neville and his grandmother Augusta who was astonished was very angry at Molly for suggesting such a thing when Neville and Ginny are happy together. Mrs. Weasley kept insisting that Ginny and I belong together which brought Ron to interfere stating that he and Hermione belong together however when I saw Hermione's face expression well—she's just said she gave Ron a few words that kept Ron's mouth shut.
~*~End of Chapter One~*~
So, I'm done with this chapter I know I changed a few things and showed the backstory on how it all started. Basically Harry is telling his tale on his side of the story but, before I can continue I want to assure you that I'm rewriting everything in each chapter which I stopped in Ch. 4 or Ch. 5 but, going to continue until I head to bed. There's a lot of flashback memories on Hermione's part where she had past relationships with a few men that Ron doesn't even know and past history of her family that Harry isn't aware yet but, will reveal soon and it will show how she became allies with Draco Malfoy, Blaise Zabini, Theodore Nott and Pansy Parkinson even Gregory Goyle and Vincent Crabbie. Trust me this is going to be a lonog story but, will worth the wait so please be patient once I rewrite everything. Don't forget to read and review. Ciao for now dolls ^_^
