Nichelle's Story
"What!?" Harry didn't believe her. This girl, his friend couldn't possibly be his twin. Not when Albus Dumbledore told him he couldn't find her. "I don't believe you. You.. you can't be. Professor you said you didn't know where she was.. Why'd you say that if this was her?" Harry looked at Dumbledore as he started to speak. "Listen Harry I said that to protect you and your sister. She couldn't give her true identity. Not just then anyways. Let her tell her story." After five minutes of silence Harry finally sat down to listen.
"I don't know where to start. It's so hard." Nichelle looked scared. She wanted Harry to believe her but she didn't want him to hate her. George came over and wrapped his arms around her. "Come on Shell." "Ok Harry here it goes. When our parents died Dumbledore seperated us because it could have been easier for Voldemort to find and kill us if he ever came back and we weren't strong enough. So Dumbledore put you into our Aunt and Uncles on and put me in the care of his brother. He would have put us both there but his brother had a serious disease and could only take care of one kid. Well since I was still in the wizarding world they changed my name, so Voldemort couldn't find me."
"When I was eight Dumbledore's brother was getting really sick and was about to die. He told me never to reveal my real name not until I was 15 and going into my fifth year at Hogwarts because he didn't want anything to seriously go wrong expecially since no one knew where i would end up. He died the day before our first year and I went to stay with Dumbledore but no one could know not anyone."
"When first year began and I realized that you were here I so wanted to tell you but I couldn't it just wasn't safe. I begged Dumbledore to let me tell you and he said no. It just wasn't safe. All I could do was stick up for you and hope no one finds out. All though some people did. "
Harry interupted, "Who found out?" Nichelle looked at her brother "The twins, Percy, Ron, Hermoine." "Why didn't you guys tell me?" He shot an awful look at his best friend. "Harry, they couldn't. Dumbledore made them swear after they found out. IT wasn't safe." Nichelle looked at Harry, "NOW shush so I can finish."
"Well they found out but we made them swear not to tell because it would be hurtful. Some of the adults knew too, but they knew the importance of not telling. Sometimes I wanted to tell you so bad when you started looking for me I wanted to tell but Dumbledore said no.. When I was with you in the basement with Quirrel and Voldemort I started to cry I didn't want you hurt but Voldemort couldn't know it was me or it woudl be all over."
"Then our second year I moved out of Dumbledore's house and to Lupins. I couldn't act like I lived with Lupin I always used Dumbledore's brother's address. I would get on at the Kings Cross station and go to Dumbledore's sisters and then get picked up. No one new SHerry was Dumbledore's sister. In the chamber of secerts I wanted to tell you but I couldn't not just then. As long as the danger passed we were safe."
"Then our third year with Siruis Black and everything I was scared out of my mind. I kept going to Dumbledore he found me he found me but Dumbledore assured me he didn't find me. When Siruis talked to us he knew who I was automattically, but how many times did he hold me.. But lupin told him to hush. I knew you were mad because you thought Siruis killed our parents but I was even madder. I mean I thought he was the reason that I could never tell you who I was. "
"Then last year I was scared when I went you got into the goblet. When you got picked for the Triwizard tournament. I didn't want you to get hurt. I cried every night. Then when you almost died and Voldemort came back I ran to Dumbledores room. I made him tell me I could tell you. He said I had to wait until this summer. And now here I am Harry. Your twin sister. Nichelle Elaine Potter aka Shelly."
