{[A/N-Ok peeps, this is a prequel to the next chapter in my auto biography. It's called """"''''through a muggles eyes". It's about the day that Sirius and Less corner Pettigrew in the street. I have a new twist to put on my story. He we go…]
Greg walked down the street. He looked at his shopping list trying to remember what stores his wife wanted him to go to. He walked into the local drug store and bought some Tylenol. He then crossed that off of his shopping list. When he walked out of the store he heard shouts. He turned quickly to see three figures running down the street. Two of the people looked like they were chasing a small man. They ran down the street until they came to the dead end. All three of them pulled out long sticks. Fred looked on in awe.
"You murderous traitor!" yelled one of the men. He had long black hair, and was enraged. He had a dark look in his eye daring anyone to step in his way. No one did.
"Lily and James!" yelled the cornered man "Sirius I thought I knew you better.
"You bastard!" yelled the woman "Peter you know you killed them. You handed them over to-to him!"
The small cornered man started to cry. "Lily and James how could you!"
Then the street exploded! Fred was blown backward along with thousands of others. The man with dark black hair couched to the ground. He looked around, and started to laugh. He laughed, and laughed, and laughed. Fred's head was hurting a lot and he felt faint. Just as he was about to faint he thought he saw a piece of orange tail with black spots slink 'round the corner…
(A/n-Well there you have it. The prequel. I think it's pretty good. I think you can guess who's still alive, and not showing her self. Thanks to Morgan Le' Fay for the seed of the idea. See you in the next chapter)
Chapter Eighteen: The Tail
We went back to school the day after the trial. We were all extremely happy, and nothing appeared about me in the paper the next day. Hermione said don't be to happy yet though, because Rita Skeeter always comes back with vengeance to any one who bothers or insults her. The only bad things were that Snape was particularly mean to Harry and I for a few days, because of the testimony he had to make, and that damn tail that I swore was following me around. I started seeing it a day after I came back. It would just appear some times, and I would see it. My friends thought I'd finally lost it, but I knew it was really there. When I told them about it for the hundredth time in Potions Snape over-heard and went paler than he already was. Then he gave me a detention for talking in class. He also told me never to talk about that tail in his presence ever again.
"There it is again!" I looked at dad who turned around to look. "It's following me!"
"Let me get this straight," said dad grinning, "There's a mysterious tail following you around?"
"Yes I swear!" I yelled
"What's this so called tail look like?" he asked sarcastically.
"It's a cheetahs tail, and it's following me. Do ya think it's Voldemort?"
Dad seemed to have frozen up. He slowly looked down at me. "A what's tail?" he asked slowly.
"Cheetahs. I turn around, and it's there. It's scary!"
"Just ignore it." He said in a low voice. "I've gotta go. It's a full moon tonight you know." he walked off quickly towards the D.A.D.A room.
I turned around again, and saw it flickering around the corner. I narrowed my eyes, and tiptoed over. I took two steps and the tail disappeared. 'It must have good hearing.' I thought to myself. I turned and walked up to the Gryffindor tower.
Later that week dad asked me if I'd seen the tail lately. When I told him that I saw it every day he really freaked and this time walked off to the Illusions room.
"What's up with him?" Ron asked me that night
"It's that tail!" I said frustrated "every time I mention it he either runs off to either Maxis or Remus."
"Maybe it means something.," suggested Harry.
"Well it must." Said Hermione "if he's acting like this. Usually he's really in control. Lately he's seemed nervous."
"Well then let's go ask someone." Said Ron.
"Who?" I asked, "I've asked millions of times. He just said don't worry. Well of course I'm going to worry there's a cheetah following me. This has never happened before."
"Let's go outside." Harry looked out the window. "Maybe we'll be able to think better out there."
We nodded and decided to go. While we were walking down the hallway I saw the cheetah three times. I knew it was letting me see its tail for a reason I just didn't know why.
Out side we walked around the ground a while until we had to go in. when we walked through the door. We saw Remus with an ear splitting grin on his face.
"You'll be skipping dinner tonight." He announced to us.
"But I'm hungry." Complained Ron.
"You and Hermione can go. Harry and Aphi must come with me."
"What is it?" I asked consciously.
"That tail won't be bothering you anymore." He said.
"Did you find it, and take it back to Africa?" I hoped that's what they had done.
"No." answered Remus. He led us into the D.A.D.A room and up the passage. While I was climbing the stairs I could hear loud…well kissing noises. I entered the room and found dad kissing a woman.
(A/N-three guesses. Hoped you liked it. Nothing to say really. Oh um… yeah guys please don't get mad but I might not finish my Lily story right now, because I'd like to write there 7th year story before report cards come out. See I'm averaging a B- In Science, and my parents seem to think that my obsession with Sirius Black is doing it to me. So they might just try to get me to stop writing fan-fic for a while. If they do I'll let you people know, but don't worry. That probably won't stop me, because I'll find ways to post. Anyway please R/R as always, and I have a new rule. Less than five reviews=no story, five or more reviews=story. If any of you need me to use smaller words to describe my new policy let me know (joke, please don't kill me) Toodles.)
-Kendra Black (aka-Aphi Black- who reeeeeaaaaaalllllyyyyy wants to know who the hell her father is up in that room making out with.)
Chapter Nineteen: Surprise
"Sirius!" said Harry in dis-belief as he looked at the scene in front of him. My jaw too, dropped down. The two were kissing and there were tears going down both of their faces. I bit my lip staring. They looked so happy together, and I didn't want to bother them.
"Meet the cheetah." Whispered Remus. He surveyed the scene.
"Aphi!" she gasped. She finally turned her head away from dad gazing at me. I looked, and saw a taller carbon copy of myself, so of course I fainted.
"Aphi!" I heard a voice. I couldn't bring myself to open my eyes.
"Aphi!" said the voice again.
"Aphrodite Black are you in there?" I finally opened my eyes. Dad, Harry, Remus, Ron, Hermione, Maxis, Saraan, Callisto, and the other woman were standing over me.
"Hello!" said Maxis. "You're still with us right?"
"I'm…" I looked up at the woman again. She smiled. She was tall and thin, and had a face just like mine. She stared down at me. That's when I knew who she was. "Mom?"
She nodded gently, and then Saraan pulled me up from the ground.
"I must have hit my head real hard. You're dead."
A shadowed look hit her eyes. "Not dead. Should have been but not."
I walked over to a chair. "Pettigrew killed you. I know the story."
"Aphi," she started to cry again "I'm sorry. I haven't been here, but I am now. Dumbledore kept writing me over the years I never answered, but after his last one I had to. He said that you were innocent Sirius, so I came back. I had to! I'm," she smiled a bit. "Back on the league. Oh, and Aphi I'm so sorry! I didn't mean to scare you with the tail and every thing. I just wanted to see you with your friends, and I see you scared Snape with the thought of me. That's good. I can't wait till he sees me tomorrow at the league meeting." She paused and looked worried "but you're not getting nearly enough detentions. You should work on that." I laughed.
"Well they recovered quickly." Whispered Callisto. "I can not believe you are alive. It's almost impossible."
"Being and animagus had many uses. I'm sorry I never contacted any of you. It was just easier that way."
"It's ok." Said Saraan "I expect any of us would have been properly horrified if you did. After all you were supposed to be dead."
Suddenly the door burst open. There was heavy breathing. Ron, and Hermione seemed to have run all the way from the great hall.
"What w-was the big s-surprise?" Ron gasped.
"Air is good," Maxis told him. "Breath! In, out, in, out…"
He took a deep breath. "What's happening?"
"Why are there two Aphi's?" asked Hermione.
"How do we explain this one?" I asked Harry.
"Allow me," said mom "Leslie Black." She stuck out her hand to shake.
"My mom." I said
"My aunt." Said Harry.
"Weird." Said Hermione and Ron
