Chapter 2

"Surprise! Happy Birthday Harry Potter!" People rushed over to the birthday boy and hugged him. Carmen taking step by step backward was in shock. 'How could I've been so stupid?' she thought. 'Even if you decided to trust that guy, you could've asked for his name!' Silently she ran down the front step, and down the street. 'If Harry had know who you were he probably kill you before you can blink.' Carmen silently cursed herself for her stupidity. She can't die, not until her task was over. Her task was to kill her father.

Harry was so surprised, here he was complaining about not getting a birthday card and all along, his friends were planning this party for him. Harry didn't remember about the girl, until his friends were pushing him inside the house. He turned his head around to find the girl, but the porch was empty. He felt bad for having forgotten about her. But the girl and her problems were wiped out of his mind when his friends shoved presents in his face. After Harry had open all his presents, he began to cut the cake and passed it out to his friends.

"So who was that girl with you Harry?" Ron asked brining Harry's thought back to the mysterious girl. Harry couldn't tell Ron the real reason right now, because some of hi Muggles friends were also there.

"Oh! She's.a friend." He said, trying to sound nonchalant.

"A friend? She looks more like a homeless girl." Anne said smirking. She was one of Harry's Muggle friends. Anne had her eye on Harry for a long time now. Any girl that knows Anne knows not to hit on Harry because she would probably tortures the poor girl.

Harry frowned at her. "Anne, that wasn't nice." Most of the time he likes Anne, but at times like these Harry was wondering why she was his friend in the first place.

"Harry you know better than to hang out with that sort." Anne said.

"And what sort would that be?" Hermione came up to Anne and gave her a deadly stare; those two had always hated each other, even the first time they met.

"I don't want to fight Hermione. It's Harry's birthday and I want it to be special for him." Anne came up to Harry and linked her arm into his. She put her head onto his shoulder and smiled smugly. Ron quickly pulled Hermione away form Anne before she gave the girl a nosebleed.

"Hey calm know sweetie." Ron said softly, he patted her back to calm her down. When she was over being angry she gave Ron a hug.

"Sorry about that," she told him. "It's just that sometime she makes me so mad. I don't know what Harry see in her."

"He doesn't like it either when she acts like that. Anyway he wouldn't dream of becoming her boyfriend." Ron said, but Hermione smirked.

"Please Ron. As long as Harry is not dating anyone, Anne considers that they're a couple." She said fatly.

"Then let her think that, it's her problem not ours." He kissed her lightly on the forehead.

"Come on, let's get back to the party before they come get us." Hermione led him into the house. They've been going steady since their sixth year at Hogwarts. Harry had always known that they'd be a couple.

Soon the guests started to leave. Ron, Hermione, and unfortunately Anne stayed back to help Harry clean up. After the house was spotless Ron and Hermione got ready to leave. When they were walking out the door, Hermione looked back at Anne.

"Aren't you leaving? Oh wait, I forgot, you're homeless." Hermione said sarcastically at Anne. Then she turned to Harry, "You should know better than to hang with these sorts." Anne made a grab for Hermione's hair, but Harry stopped her. Hermione looked at Anne in feign terror. "Temper, temper." Hermione said, shaking a finger at her. Harry gave her a look that said, 'let me handle this.' Hermione shrugged at him then walked out and Ron right behind her, shaking his head as he followed his girlfriend.

Anne ran to the door and slams it shut. She turned back to Harry and pasted a sweet smile on her face. "I thought they'd never leave." She said, seductively. Harry rose and eyebrow at her.

"Yes, and now it's your turn missy." Before Anne could protest her ushered her out of the house. Harry signed a breath of relief then locked his door. "Finally some peace and quiet." he muttered to himself. Harry turned off the lights in the living room then went upstairs. He took a cold shower to freshen himself up before going to bed. Once Harry got into his warm bed, waiting for to be taken to dreamland, but sleep never came. His mind kept falling back to that girl. Guilt crept its way into him. 'I was so stupid!' he mentally yelled at himself. Then millions of questions invaded his mind. 'Is she all right? Where is she now? Does she hate me about forgetting about her?'

Harry didn't know what it is about her that made him care so much. Finally realizing how tire he was, he pushed all his worries aside and fell into a deep slumber.

Carmen sitting on a bench, at a park that was deserted, was huddled into a tiny ball, trying to keep herself warm. 'I'll never be able to find Dumbledore now.' She said to herself, helplessly. After her earlier incident, she wasn't about to ask for help from anybody else. As quickly as doubts came to her she had a plan.

"There'll probably be tons of wizards and witches at Diagon Alley to inform me where Dumbledore may be." She said her plan out loud. "To get to Diagon Alley I need to go to the Leaky Cauldron in London, but how do I get there? I don't even know here I am." Carmen thought for a moment. "Wait! I can call for the Knight Bus. But then I'll have to use my want. But I don't have to do any magic so it'll be okay. I only have to flick my wand and the bus would come."

If a Muggle had come up to her right now, they would probably send her to the mental hospital right away, because she was just standing there talking to herself with half the stuff that came out of her mouth not making sense at all.

Carmen took out her wand, from inside her cloak, flicked it once, then waited for patiently for the Knight Bus. The reason that Carmen has to find Dumbledore was that he's the only one that would help her with part of her task. When she was little, her father begins to teach her magic, instead of sending her to a witchcraft school, like other parents do. But it wasn't just magic that he taught her, he taught her black magic.

When Carmen figured out how to make her black magic turns into good, she started to do it behind her father's back. Since a child, Carmen had no friends. The only other beings that she contacted with were her father and his servants. Her father had always locked her up in the house that's why she doesn't know anything from the outside world. The little she knew about anything was from books she stole from her father's library when he was away. But one thing she knows for certain, if any which or wizard finds out who's daughter she was, she'd be dead just like that! No one can know who she is especially Harry Potter. There's only one man that can help her now, Albus Dumbledore.

Carmen had succeeded making her magic partially good magic but not pure. The only way to kill her father was to have pure magic. Dumbledore can help her there, not only because he's a great wizard but it's also because he believes that not one person is like another. He wouldn't think she is evil for what her father did. He would be the only one to believe that she is really after her own father.

Finally the Knight Bus stopped in front of her. The door to the bus slid open as Carmen walked in. she told the bus driver her destination and held some cons to pay him. She had inherited her father's money when he left their home. Carmen wouldn't use his money but this was an exception because she needs to survive somehow in order to complete her task. The driver gave her a disgusting look; she was so dirty that he didn't even want to take the money she was handing him.

"Uh, put it on the counter here." He said not caring to hide his rudeness. Carmen put the money on the counter then walked over to a bed and lay down, waiting to get to her destination. After a while she heard the bus driver yelled at her, "Hey Dirt girl! We're here, so get off." The driver shouted at her. She didn't care how rude he was, he was her littlest concern right now. She got off the bus and found herself standing in front of the Leaky Cauldron.

TBC.

So how was that? Going good or bad? Please remember to review.
