Summary:

Kagome Higurashi has always known she doesn't resemble her parents and that she was different, but she didn't know how different until she received a letter from Mahoutokoro School of Magic at the age of seven. Then she discovers that not only is she a witch but that she is the granddaughter of Garrick Ollivander and the daughter of a certain pure-blood wizard that she only knows as Padfoot.

Having been blood adopted by Kiyoko Higurashi, a pure-blood witch and priestess, after Kagome's mother died in childbirth, Kagome inherits the powers of a priestess from her adopted mother's bloodline. She ends up going on an adventure 500 years in the past when she's 16 years old. But being a witch and armed with her wand, things turned out a lot easier than she expected.

Now at age 17 she decides that she would like to meet her grandfather and maybe find out who Padfoot really is. With the help of Albus Dumbledore, Kagome comes to meet her father and his friend Remus Lupin.

Ever since Lily and James died, Remus Lupin has kept others at a distance. He never wanted to be in any kind of relationship with anyone, but that all changed when Kagome Higurashi walked into 12 Grimmauld Place. His entire world was turned upside down at the mere sight of the lovely girl and Remus knew that he had found his mate. But what will happen when she finds out that he's a werewolf, could she learn to love him? And what will Sirius do when he finds out that Remus is in love with his only child? Read to find out.

Kagome Higurashi had always known she was adopted. She looked nothing like her parents or her brother, while they had dark brown hair and brown eyes, Kagome had raven black hair and grey eyes. She had sharp cheekbones and an aristocratic nose. True she did have some Asian features but not many, and though she had known from a young age that she was adopted, she never let on and she still loved her family dearly.

One day, when Kagome was seven years old, an owl showed up at the shrine. Kagome just happened to be playing outside when the owl swooped down at her and dropped a letter, Kagome caught the letter and read it. Kagome's eyes widen and she goes running inside. Kiyoko Higurashi was doing the dishes when she heard her daughter come running into the house.

"Mom, an owl just dropped off this letter from a place called Mahoutokoro School of Magic."

Kiyoko takes the letter from her daughter and reads it. She sighs and looks down at her daughter.

"I knew this day would come, Kagome dear, come on let's have a cup of tea and sit in the living room, I have a great many things to tell you."

Mother and daughter went into the living room where they sat down next to each other. Kiyoko looks down at her daughter and pets her hair.

"Kagome, there is something you must know first, your papa and I love you very much and we always will. You are a joy to have in our lives, but I must tell you that we are not your real parents."

Kagome stared at her mother for a moment, "Oh I know that Mama, I've known for a long time now."

Kiyoko looked at her daughter surprised, "How did you figure that out?"

"Well, Mama, I'm the only one in the family that has grey eyes and black hair, I don't look like you, Daddy, or Souta. I looked at all the family photos, no one in the family looks like me. I'm not mad or anything, Mama, but I am curious, who are my real parents?"

"Your mother and I were best friends and went to the same school together, the very school that you got that letter from, Mahoutokoro School of Magic. You see, my dear, your mother and I are witches."

Kagome's eyes widen, "Really, so does that mean I'm a witch too?"

"Yes it does, my sweet girl."

"I don't understand, why didn't my mommy want me?" Kagome asks

"Oh Kagome, of course, she did, but you see she died giving birth to you. But before she died she made me promise to adopt you and raise you as my own."

Kagome started to cry and Kiyoko hugged her child, after a few minutes Kagome calmed down.

"Can you tell me more about my mother?"

"Yes, dear, your mother's name was Grace Ollivander, she was from England. She originally attended Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry located in Scotland. There are four houses that a young witch or wizard can belong to, your mother belonged to Ravenclaw, known for intelligence, creativity, learning, and wit."

Kagome listened with rapt attention about her mother, Kiyoko continues.

"During your mother's 7th year at Hogwarts, she began dating a boy from one of the other houses, they quickly fell in love and made plans to be together after they graduated. But, your mother got pregnant with you and was so afraid that the boy and her family would reject her that she dropped out of school and ran away. She ended up here and started going to school at Mahoutokoro. We were in the same grade and instantly became friends. She told me everything that happened, but she never told me the name of your father. She said it was too painful for her to think about him let alone say his name."

"So I supported her throughout her entire pregnancy, I went with her to all of her healer appointment, and she named me your godmother. When it came time for her to give birth, she started having complications. Grace knew she wasn't going to make it so she made me promise to blood adopt you when you were born."

"What does that mean," Kagome asked.

"It means I used blood magic to magically adopt you, so that you would share my blood and some of my features, though you still have your father's eyes, according to Grace. Her last request is that I name you after a star or a constellation as apparently, it's a tradition in your father's family. So I named you Kagome Lyra Higurashi. Lyra being the harp-like constellation in the northern hemisphere." Kiyoko tells her daughter.

"Do you have any pictures of my mother?"

"As a matter of fact I do, give me a minute and I'll go get them."

Kiyoko pats her daughter's hand before going upstairs. Kagome hears her mother going into the attic, a few minutes later Kiyoko comes down with a few boxes. She sits down next to Kagome and opens the box, taking out her mother's old wand and several pictures. Kiyoko looks at the pictures first and begins to tear up, then she hands them to Kagome. Kagome takes the pictures and is startled when she sees that the people in the photos are actually moving! She squeaks and drops the picture.

Kiyoko laughs, "Oh Dear, those are wizarding photos, they all move."

Kagome reaches out and picks up the picture again, in the picture, there are two girls standing there hugging each other in a black uniform with shimmering gold obi cords. One is clearly her birth mother as she has a large belly and has her hand on it and the other is Kyoko.

"When was this taken," Kagome asks.

"It was taken us after we had graduated Mahoutokoro, a few months later you were born."

Kiyoko hands Kagome more pictures of her mother, studied each one very carefully. She notices that the shape of her eyes looks more or less like her mother's and her mother's nose, her mother's hair was dark brown while hers is black. She didn't have her mother's eyes, her eyes were an unusual shade of silver, while Kagome's are grey.

Kiyoko could tell that Kagome was comparing herself to her mother, trying to find similarities. Kiyoko smiles at her daughter and places a loving hand on her cheek.

"You do somewhat resemble your mother, but she said you look mostly like your father and his family."

"Really, she got to see me?"

"Yes, she held you for a few minutes before she passed away. She said you looked just like Padfoot, that was the nickname your father was given, she never used his real name. After Grace died I went through her things and found a picture of Padfoot, would you like to see it?"

Kagome eagerly nodded her head, Kiyoko takes the picture out of the box and hands it to Kagome. In the picture, she sees three young men, one with shaggy dark hair, one with short messy hair and glasses and another with light brown hair and a scar across his face. Kagome's eyes linger for a moment on the boy with the scar, they're standing in front of a castle. Kiyoko pointed to each young man.

"Grace told me that they were your father's best friends. They called themselves the Marauders. The one with the scar was nicknamed Moony, this one with the glasses was Prongs and this one on the end is your father Padfoot."

"Why were they called that?" Kagome asks.

"She said it had something to do with their animagi forms."

Kagome raised an eyebrow, "What's that?"

"An Animagus is a witch or wizard who can morph him or herself into an animal at will. It is a learned skill and can take several years to learn how to do." Kiyoko explains.

She then takes out another picture of Padfoot this time in color, Kagome gasps, because now she can see where she got her grey eyes from. She gazes at the picture of her father and realizes that she does indeed look more like her father than her mother. Kagome tears up and hands the pictures back to her mother, Kiyoko hugs her crying daughter and kisses her head.

"Now let's look at the rest of the things in this box, shall we?"

Kagome nods, eager to see what other treasures are in the box.
