Chapter 2: Sirius and Tempest Black
Sirius Black and his twin, Tempest were
out on the morning of September First, playing Quidditch. Sirius, who was
playing beater, keeper, and seeker all at once rolled over in mid air when
Tempest hit a bludger, not at all missing the bludger.
At this point in the game Sirius had 6
bruises, a bloody nose, and what felt like a sprained ankle. Although he was
the worst off of the two he was not the only one injured. Tempest had only 4
bruises, and a bloody nose, yet no sprained ankle, although not from lack of
trying.
The two of them had been practicing
quidditch together since they were old enough to ride a broomstick. Tempest was
always the one who came out in better shape after the game, although that might
be because Sirius made little, if no, attempt to dodge the balls.
"Ha! Gotcha again!" Tempest
yelled through the misty morning. They were supposed to be leaving for Kings
Cross Station at any minute. Being the only ones kids in the family they had no
older siblings to tell them how horrible the sorting was going to be. Although
they did hang out over at James's house often enough that they knew they were
lucky not to have any siblings.
The only thing they both agreed on was
that they didn't like being twins. They loved to hang out with each other,
since there were no kids their age closer then a mile from them, and about two
miles to the nearest wizarding household with children. They were always told
how lucky they were to have each other, and how much they looked alike. And
they hated it.
Their mother said that the two of them
were as alike as two peas in a pod. They both had black hair; one set longer
then the other. The both had brown eyes. And their personalities bore an
uncanny resemblance. For both were mischievous, always getting into trouble,
and giving their mother gray hairs.
"SIRIUS AND TEMPEST BLACK!!! What
do you think you are doing? It is time to leave for Kings Cross and look at the
two of you. All covered in mud and giving each other bruises. What were you
thinking? You knew perfectly well that we are going to be late if we don't get
a move on it. And if you miss that train, you will be sorry. Especially if you
have to stay with me for the school year, and start school a year late."
Their mother yelled from the ground.
Tempest and Sirius quickly flew to the
ground, hoping with all their might that they didn't miss the bus. They didn't
think they could live another year with staying home with their mother. And
they wouldn't even have James to go pass the time with. They had to get to (?
I'm not sure about that one) that train.
"Mom, I (TMS) think I sprained my
ankle." Sirius whined from where he was sitting on the ground. Their
mother, Kara Black, quickly crossed the lawn to where Sirius was sitting while
pulling out her wand. She quickly fixed his ankle, and hurried them off to the
car where their father, Sean Black, was waiting.
"You two ready for school?"
Sean asked as they all hopped into the car.
"Yep" they replied as one.
"Now don't get into any trouble,
you hear?" Kara asked her children.
"Yes mother," they
(TMS)replied. They knew this speech by heart, and this is the part that she
will tell us not to break any rules, they thought.
"Now don't...." Kara started
"Break any rules." They
finished for her.
"Mother, we have been over this
about fifty times now." Tempest said in an irritated voice.
"Yes, we packed all of our school
supplies and clothes." Sirius said before their mother could question
them.
"And we will hand in all our
homework." Tempest continued.
"And we will try not to skip
classes so we can go to Hogsmeade." Sirius told his mother.
"And we did not sneak our brooms
into our trunks while you weren't looking." Tempest smiled innocently as
she said this. (SHE? WHY WE WHEN SHE?)
Kara looked at her children doubtfully,
knowing very well that there were only about two things on the list that they
were actually planning to keep.
Sean tried to lighten the mood by
saying, "I'll remember to keep every one of the notes saying you have
gotten into trouble again. If you want we can redecorate your room by
wallpapering it with all your notes."
The twins grinned at each other,
"Okay!" they said as one.
Their conversation switched from
breaking school rules to coming home for Christmas, and then to how much their
mother was going to miss them.
They reached King's Cross in no time
and they soon were all onto Platform 9 3/4. Their mother gave them each a kiss
on the check bidding them good-bye, before they went off to find James. Knowing
very well that she would most likely not see them again until Christmas.
