Chapter 2
Victoria and Serius

"Harry! I almost forgot. Here's your gift." Hermione told Harry. "Oh! You didn't have to, you know?" he answered. She handed him a parcel nicely and neatly wrapped. Harry opened it very carefully. " Oh Hermione! Its great. I love it!" he said, smiling broadly. She gave him a stationary set complete with a new quill and a fancy bottle of ink, with parchment paper with "Sincerely yours: Harry Potter" at the bottom of each of them, with a fancy design on them also. After that. Each of them went off to bed because it was late and they were all getting tired. Hermione was also staying at the Leaky Cauldron for the rest of the summer, but not Krum. He had to leave that night, which made Ron happier. "Goodnight Mr. And Mrs. Weasley!" Harry said to Ron's parents. "Oh, Goodnight dear." said Mrs. Weasley. "Yes, Goodnight there Harry!" answered Mr. Weasley. "See you in the morning Hermione!" Ron told Hermione. "Goodnight to you to Ron!" she answered back.

When they were all done saying their goodnights, they all went to their rooms. Harry and Ron were sharing a room, which was bigger then Ron's room at the Burrow.

Harry lay awake for quite some time that night. He was still thinking of this Victoria Evens. Who could she be? He lay there for about a hour or so and fell asleep wondering who she was. He had a dreamless night. He was happy for that at least. He woke up early the next morning and woke Ron up. "Harry, its still early. We don't have to wake up for another 2 hours. Who wakes up at 6 o'clock?" said a groggy sounding Ron. "I can't go back to sleep. So neither should you!" he said laughing. "Well then if we are up anyways. Lets go down for breakfast!" said Ron. "Fine with me. I'm starving!" answered Harry

Harry went down first because Ron took his shower and got dressed. When he got down he stoped before anyone saw him because he heard people talking. He was sure that it was Fred, George and Mrs. Weasley. They were talking about Miss Evens. "Do you know who she is mom, this Miss Evens?" asked Fred. "I'm not sure but, she has the same last name as Lily Potter's maiden name. And if I am correct Lily had three sisters, one older and one younger. And if I do remember her name was Victoria, Victoria Evens." she told the two boys. "Are you sure mom?" asked George. "Almost positive." she answered. "So then she is Harry's aunt, right?" asked Fred. "If she really is who I believe she is. Then yes, she would be." she answered.

Harry didn't want to come down when they were talking about that. He didn't want to make it seem like he heard them. Could Miss. Evens really be his aunt? Why hadn't anybody told him that his mother had another sister? Why hadn't aunt Petunia ever tell him about it? Could she be a witch like his mother? He had so many questions.

He went back up stairs to get Ron but on his way up he ran into Ginny. "Uhh...ehh.. Sorry!" she said weakly. "Its ok Ginny"he answered. "What are you doing up so early?" she asked him. " I usually get up this early. What are you doing up?" he said "Uhh.... I woke up and I couldn't go back to sleep." she answered "Well I'll see you down there soon. I just have to go get Ron." he told her. "Alright then. See you down there!" she said and smiled at him shyly.

He got to his room and got Ron. They soon went back down to have some breakfast with the rest of the Weasleys. Nobody talked much. They were all to hungry to talk. Harry wasn't sure when Miss. Evens was going to come but he soon found out when an owl was seen at the window holding a letter for Harry. It read: Dear Harry, I see that you are able to meet me because if you weren't you would have sent me an owl. Anyways I see now that I forgot to tell you when I was coming. Well I will be there at around noon, so be there at noon. See you then. Take care. Goodbye!
Victoria Evens

That answered his question then. Nothing really happened until then. He, Ron and Hermione went to go look around Diagon Alley, while Fred and George tried to sneak away into Knokturn Alley. Which they never got to because Mrs. Weasley was watching them all the time.

When 12 o'clock was nearing the three friends made their way to the Leaky Cauldron to go meet Miss. Evens. When they got there, they saw a woman with strawberry blond hair sitting alone in one of the booths. They walked over to her and said: "Hello Miss? Are you Miss. Evens?" asked Harry. "Why yes I am. Harry dear how are you?" she told him. "I'm fine thank you, and yourself?" he asked. "I'm great. Listen I would love to meet your friends but right now I would like to speak to you alone, if you don't mind?" she said. "Oh..umm..Alright." he said while telling Ron and Hermione that he shouldn't be to long and that he would go and find them when he was done talking to her. "Well why did you want to meet me for, if you don't mind me asking?" he asked her. "Well Harry if you haven't found out by now..."she said but she was cut of by Harry: "Are you my aunt? I mean my mom's sister?" he interrupted. "Yes. I'm glad you know now." she said. "Listen Harry I hope you don't think I don't like you or anything for not seeing you for all these years. I have been really busy and I never had a chance to actually take the time off and come and see you. But I'm glad that I'm meeting you now. I have so much to tell you!" she told him. "So does this mean that you are a witch like my mother?" he asked. "Yes. I am one year older then your mother, lily. I also went to Hogwarts, like she did. I also new your dad. Wow you do look a lot like him."she told him. Making Harry blush a little. "Oh, so that means you must know Serius, Professor Lupin and Peter?"he said hoping she didn't like Peter also. "Sure I did. I remember them very well. Your dad's friends. Lupin and Serius were always very nice but I never liked Peter. We just didn't get along very well. In fact Serius and I were engaged before he was convicted and sent to Azkaban. If you ask me, I think he never would have done such a thing, he must have been framed or something. I still think he didn't do it." she told him. Harry new to well that Serius hadn't done it, in fact Peter was the one who framed him and he was now a death eater. "You two were engaged? Really?" he asked. "Yes. We were scheduled to be married when you were about two." she answered. "I'm sorry!"he told her. "Oh don't be it wasn't your fault."she replied.

After that they talk for about an hour and a half about her past at Hogwarts, stories about he and lily and James, pranks that James, Serius, Lupin and Peter had done when they were at school. Then she had to leave, get back to her life. She told Harry if he ever needed something or needed someone to talk to, that he could just send her an owl. She gave him a hug and a kiss on the fore head and she disaperated.

With that he went to go look for Ron and Hermione and found them in Floorish and Blots book store. They all left the store and walked around Diagon Alley discussing what Harry and his aunt talked about. They were both surprised when they heard about Victorian and Serius. After some explaining they all wen to bed. The rest of the summer went by in a flash, they didn't do much of anything, just shop in Diagon Alley. Before they were off to school Harry sent a letter to Serius talking about Miss. Evens and how he was once engaged to her also. To harry surprise he got an answer in 2 days, it read. Dear Harry, How are you? So you found out who Miss. Evens was. Yes it is true that I was engaged to her and we would have gotten married if I didn't get sent to Azkaban. Anyways stay in contact. Write to me if anything out of the ordinary happens to you. Hope to see you soon. bye!
Serius

Harry was awoken by a loud bang at the door. It was Mrs. Weasley demanding they got up cause they had to get to King's Cross Station in half an hour. She was in such a rush getting Ginny ready. Harry, Ron and Hermione were all ready, which made Mrs. Weasley very Happy. They got into a taxi and got to king's Cross with 10 minutes to spare. One by one they went through the barrier to get to Platform 9 and 3/4. Harry went to save a compartment for the other two, while they were putting their trunks away in the storage places . Harry was looking for a empty compartment when he stumbled upon a nearly empty compartment with only a single girl sitting in it. This girl was nothing Harry has ever seen. She was incredibly beautiful. She had long dark purple hair with some lighter purple highlights. She looked at Harry confused but Harry backed away and kept looking for another compartment. When he found one and the other two found him they talk along to whole way, but Harry decided not to tell Hermione and Ron about this unusual girl. He wanted to keep her to himself.
