//Missie was setting up a cirlce for doing her majick in, while Severus Snape was conversing with Dumbledore. Harry was biting his fingernails nervously, having picked up the habit from his god-sister... cousin... from Juliana. Sirius was pacing nervously, worry written all over his face. Missie wasn't sure where Juliana was, and Harry finally stood up, walking over to Sirius.

"Sirius...?" Harry asked, letting his name trail off.

"Yeah Harry?" Sirius stopped his pacing and looked at his nephew.

"I was wondering, how is Juliana related to Professor Dumbledore?" Harry was evidently confused. Sirius let out a a quiet bark of laughter.

"Believe it or not Harry, but Lily was exactly all muggle. Albus is actually Lily's great, great, great grandfather. Or was it four 'great's....?" Sirius murmured to himself. "Anyway," he said, shaking himself out of it, "Albus married a muggle, and the child ended up as a squib, and so Lily was the only child of Dumbledore's that actually had magical powers. So really, Jewlz isn't exactly *related* to Albus. But *you* are." Harry double blinked at that.

"Wow." That was all that Harry could say to that.

Missie sat down in her circle, now completely finished, and began to meditate. In the pensieve, as this was a display of her thoughts, now only showed a muggle baseball cap; plain and red.//

Missie was getting bored, just looking at the hat, so she waited for this part of the memory to finish.

//The image finally faded, and Albus immediately noticed when Missie's eyes opened. He motioned for Severus and Harry to make a triangle with Missie, just outside her circle. Missie began chanting and lighting candles as a strong, bright red aura enveloped around her. Her hair tumbled about as she continued her chanting and she lit a few more candles and burnt another stick of insence.

Snape egan to chant as well, closing his eyes and waving his wand in a pattern. Harry waited until until the chanting stopped and he spoined his wand in the center of the triangle where a ghostly figure of his mother was starting to take shape.

"Arvadek Adava!" Harry shouted, focusing all of his energy and and mental focus into this spell, trying to just *will* it work accordingly.

The ghostly shadown flickered for a moment, taking a solid look, then dissappeared completely. No one was certain if it had actually worked or not, Albus had said they would know around in a month, meaning September 7 at the latest. Missie tugged on her elbow, pulling her out of the pensieve.//

"I just hope Lily's back," Missie whispered into the empty library.

It had been almost a week since the spell had been cast, and Juliana sat on her bed, flipping through a book: 'Hogwarts, A History'. Remus had told her it would tell her more about Hogwarts. Juliana retorted that if she wanted to read a 1,000 page book she would rather settle with Stephen King's 'It'. Remus, being a pureblooded wizard didn't get it. Instead he shushed her up and told her to at least *look* at the book. Juliana heard a knock at the door and spoke up:

"Come on in," and the door slowly swung open. "Oh, hey Harry," she said glancing up and shutting her book.

"'Howarts, A History' eh?" Harry raised an eyebrow.

"Reemie's making me read it," she scowled in annoyance as Harry chuckled. Over the past week, she and Harry had been talking everyday, catching up for lost time. If Harry hadn't taken the time to get to know Jewlz, he would have pegged her for a spoiled brat. But she was far from it. Well... pretty far from it at least. Sort of.

Juliana looked at her god-brother with a concerned look. "You okay?" Harry's face was paler than normal and even though it was sweltering hot in the house, he was wearing some jeans and a thick t-shirt. (Juliana insisted that he shouldn't have to wear the crap that the Dursleys had given him, and she took him shopping for a few essentials in clothing with some of the money she had beeen saving up from birthdays. Normally she hated to shop, but she made an exception for Harry. He *really* needed some new clothes.)

"Not really, I'm really nervous about that spell last week," he admitted. Juliana gave him a quick hug.

"It's alright Harry, it's bound to have gone through smoothly." Juliana put on a smile, trying to put Harry at ease. He gave her a weak smile and plopped himself down on her bed, face up.

"So you ever planning on telling me that you and Missie are going to Hogwarts this year?" Harry faintly blushed when he said Missie's name, but not enough for Jewlz to notice.

"Well, I was going to tell you tomorrow, but it seems as though someone has beaten me to it." Her eyes twinkled slightly.

"Yeah, Sirius told me this morning at breakfast while you were still sleeping." Juliana had a horibble sleeping-late problem. She didn't like to wake up earlier than eleven in the morning, and if you tried to wake her up, it was pretty much useless. One time she had even slapped Missie across the face when she tried to wake up the dark haired girl.

Missie, on the other hand, woke up very easily, and usually woke up around four in the morning no matter how late she stayed up the night before.

"So when are you going to put your birthday presents to work, huh?" Juliana asked him. His birthday was two days after they did the spell, and he had gotten some great presents. Juliana's was the shopping. From Missie he recieved a box of American Wizard sweets from Aquatium Alley in New York. Sirius gave him a twenty galleon gift certificate for the stores in Hogsmeade. Remus had generously gave him not only all of the books on his school list, but also a spare key to the house, telling Harry that he was welcome there whenever he wanted.

Yet, what Juliana was talking about, was the amazing training Quidditch set that he got from the Weasley family. Juli was whacky about Quiddtch and loved playing against Missie. But she *really* wanted to play against Harry.He gave her a charming smile.

"How does right now sound to you?"











R/R PLZ, btw: HOGWARTS, RON, HERMIONE, and OTHER STUFF, ALL NEXT CHAPTER! *OR* IT WILL BE ABOUT THE QUIIDDITCH WORLD CUP, NOT SURE YET! (hopefully, knowing me it'll be about something completely different. Oh well.)
