It was a cold day out at the noble house of black, the kind of day where it
wanted to rain,, gray clouds covered the sky as far as the eye could see. A
figure clad in a long black coat strode up to 12 Grimmauld Place. 'Will
this really work?' She thought frantically, fumbling for something
concealed in her pocket. A bony hand pulled out a piece of weather-beaten
parchment, smoothing it out. She looked at her watch, 3:42 P.M, perfect.
She would have been here earlier, walking past the home several times
within the last twenty minutes. But she couldn't just walk up to the door,
not the house where he resided. He, he the one man whom she had obsessed
about for the last two years of her life. He, the one she had read about in
the Daily Prophet. Sirius Black, the last living relative of the Black
Family tree. The one she thought might understand her. The woman held her
hand a few inches from the door, hesitating. She withdrew for a moment.
'Now or never, Gia.' The thought, now instructing herself to do as she came
to do. She planted a firm knock on the door, taking a step backwards,
awaiting whomever, or whatever was inside to answer her call.
Inside the house, was quite a peaceful scene, for once. Molly and Arthur Weasley weren't present at the time, nothing really for them to do here. Not to mention the official order meeting was Thursday, though Tonks seemed to linger around. Even when she wasn't wanted.
"Remus?" Tonks asked, imitating a high pitched girly voice. "Yes?" He responded, not bothering to look up from his book. "Wacha' readin?" She asked again, leaning over the table. "A book, you should pick up one sometime." He replied again, with a hint of sarcasm. "Will you both get a room?" Sirius groaned wearily. "What do you mean, Sirius?" She asked arching a brow at his comment. "Don't play dumb with me Nymphie, we all know about your little crush on Remus." Sirius commented, grinning. "I do not!" Tonks protested, clenching her hands into fists. Sirius's grin widened, knowing he touched on a sensitive subject. Remus sat listening to this conversation, smirking a bit as he put his book down, opening his mouth to say something. "Honestly Si-" He stopped in mid- sentence at the sound of a rather large knock at the front door. As soon as Tonks heard the knock, she jumped up knocking over her chair, going down with it. "Ill- get it." She said in a muffled voice scrambling up and walking quickly walking out of the room. 'How did he find out? Argh, now Remus knows.' She thought bitterly, trying not to turn red with embarrassment. She finally reached the door, casually opening it.
The woman's head shot up at the sound of an opening door. "Sirius?" She said excitedly, but then stopped. "Err- I mean, is this number 12 Grimmauld Place?" She tried again, muffling her voice.
"Yes, what's your business?" Tonks replied in a serious tone of voice, studying the woman's face. In her findings, Tonks didn't recognize her from anywhere. The woman had black hair, shoulder length. Her eyes were a violet color, her skin a pasty peach.
"I wish to join the Order of the Phoenix " She stated plainly, holding out the parchment, crinkles still visible.
"Order eh? Well let's see here." Tonks began to mumble looking over the letter it read:
To whom this may concern, I Albus Dumbeldore, hearby give permission to a one Gia Eclipse, to join the Order of the Phoenix, her skills might possibly serve us use in the future. Sincerely Headmaster -Albus Dumbeldore
"Shorter than his usual letters, convincing enough however, come in." Tonks replied giving her room to step inside.
Gia came in, taking off her coat. Underneath she wore her best clothes for the occasion. She wore a black tanktop with a leather skirt, brought to her knees, high-heeled boots taking off from where the skirt left. Her makeup was rather.heavy. She wore heavy coating of black eyeliner, eyes clumped with mascara. Her lips were heavily painted in crimson red. Aside from clothes and Makeup, her jewelry was also a sight. She wore silver, the necklace having silver dog and wolf charms dangling from the chain.
Tonks strode back into the kitchen, yielding at the doorway. "Errrm Guys- we have company."
To be continued.
((left you on a cliffhanger didn't I? Don't worry the next chapter will be up in no time. Until then I crave attention, so give me a review! And if you decide to flame me, I eagerly await your stupidity.))
