A sharp sound woke her up that morning, the first day of school after the Christmas holidays. Phoenix stretched out and stood up, making her way out of the room and to the bathroom. She was always the first to wake up, since the boys and her had to share a bathroom they had early on decided to put up a schedule so there would not be any fights. When she came out, after having showered and changed in her green uniform, she saw Harry leaning sleepily against the door to his room, waiting patiently for her to come out. The boy smiled gently at her, stifling a yawn. "Good morning, Phoenix."
The girl returned his smile. "Good morning Dragon. Did you sleep well?"
"Yeah, fine."
Harry moved to the bathroom and was about to close the door when Hermione called him again. "Dragon."
The boy pecked from inside the bathroom. "Yes?"
"Remember it's your turn to wake Griffin."
Hermione laughed when she heard Harry groan, and before he could reply, she started to walk down the stairs. Ron had changed much since they had left Hogwarts more then a year ago, but getting him up at mornings was still one of the hardest challenges.
Once downstairs, she saw Professor Villjé making breakfast, having a bathroom on her own, she didn't have the problems they had. Her guardian looked up when she came in and Hermione went to give her a hug as she did every morning.
"Good morning, Professor."
"Morning, Phoenix. Are the boys up?"
Hermione smiled and sank into a chair, picking up a book. "Dragon is in the bathroom, and he will wake Griffin up."
The woman looked a little wearily at the book her young charge was reading, over the holidays she had grown somewhat used to the concept of the magical world. The three of them had even taken her to Diagon Alley to buy some books, still it was a little too much to take in at once. Suddenly they heard a cry from upstairs and a few moments later, Harry came down looking pleased.
"Good morning, professor."
The boy hugged her gently and went to sit next to Hermione, who looked up from her book briefly. "What did you do to Griffin, Dragon?"
Harry shrugged innocently. "He just didn't wake up, I had to use a little persuasion. Besides, we are already running a little late and so I spared him the shower."
Hermione gapped at him. "You didn't!"
An annoyed voice came to the kitchen. "He did. And if you ever throw a pitcher full of ice cold water on me again, Dragon, you will regret it."
Harry just smiled at his friend while Professor Villjé put their breakfast before them. "Of course, Griffin, I don't doubt it."
Twenty minutes later they were finished, professor Villjé went up the stairs to change while the teenagers cleaned up the kitchen. They all met again at the front door and walked out.
Professor Villjé needed to be at the school earlier and so she left with the car while the three teenagers preferred to walk all the way to the school. On the way, their classmates often greeted them. They really didn't have any close friend, besides themselves, still they were well liked and had got somewhat of a reputation by defending the younger students from the bullies that were in the school.
Sirius woke up earlier than he had meant to, he had planed to go to the school when it got out, knowing else he would be waiting there for a long time, sadly he was now awake and he didn't seem to be able to go back to sleep. Giving up, Sirius got dressed and walked out of the room to get a late breakfast. After having finished his coffee, he pondered what he should do then. He thought about different possibilities but finally gave up, knowing he wouldn't be able to concentrate, and started to walk towards the school.
When he arrived, he noticed people walking through the grounds, sitting in small groups eating lunch. His heart gave a small leap, maybe Harry was out there. Without a second thought, he ducked into an alley and turned back into Padfoot. Then he walked slowly around and finally manages to sneak into the school through a small hole. He was happy there were that many bushes around, giving students their privacy, else he would have had a hard time keeping hidden. Even so, it was hard to walk around, he was much to big. Sighing, he laid down between some bushes and rested his head on his front pawns, considering what he should do next.
Unexpectedly he heard a small scream coming from a shadowed spot near him. Listening more carefully he could hear voices talking, he didn't like the tone of the voices in the least and decided to go investigate. The sight that greeted Padfoot angered him. Three big boys, probably around fifteen years old, were standing over a small girl. The girl was crying softly while the boy standing in the middle showed her a clenched fist menacingly. Padfoot's instincts took over, he readied himself to launch his heavy body onto the boys, when a calm voice broke the tension and make everyone look away. Standing opposite from where he was hiding, Padfoot saw the small form of his godson looking calmly at the scene that was playing in front of him. The small girl gave a small delighted cry and launched herself on Harry. The boy hugged her gently, never shifting his gaze from the three boys, who were now looking at him annoyed. Patting the girl's head he gently said, "Why don't you go have lunch with your friends, Miranda?"
The girl looked to the three bullies, which were now slowly coming near them and quickly nodded. Letting go of his waist, she turned around and ran to the main grounds.
Sirius tensed, seeing the three boys were not pleased at all with the intervention. Harry was still standing calmly there, as if nothing was wrong. One of the teenagers spoke. "Why do you and your friends always step into things that don's concern you, Harry?"
The boy growled menacingly, Harry didn't seem impressed and simply smiled coldly. "And why, Hector, can you not leave younger students alone. This is a school, not an institution for criminal incurable boys."
Harry's smile widened at his own inner joke, thinking about his uncle. All thoughts were erased from his mind when the three boys started to run to him, seemingly intend on doing him some harm. Sirius, without a second thought, jumped out of the bushes, ready to defend his small godson. That was highly unnecessary. By the time he had reached the boys, Harry had already disposed of them, rendering them all three unconscious with some swift punches to their jaws and stomachs.
