The moment she saw the huge dog begin to change Desiree took a few steps back, reaching for her small handgun. In terror she realized that she removed it when she changed into her uniform. `Nevermind, not like I can't take it on my own.'
When the dog finished transforming into a full grown man Desiree breathed "I knew it. I knew you weren't a dog. Tell me who you are now!" Surprisingly the dog-man smiled and gave a slight laugh. "My little sprite, always the feisty one." Really looking at the man for the first time she noticed something about him, she noticed that he had eyes like hers.
"I ain't your little nothing!" Desiree spat back at the man as he calmly stood where he was. Desiree stood in fighting position waiting for him to disclose his information. Noticing that Desiree was getting slightly irked from Sirius's behavior Harry made himself noticed.
"How are you doing Sirius?" The mans eyes darted to where Harry was standing and his proud grin grew into a content smile. "Harry, look at you! I swear you look more like James everyday. Scary."
Laughing to himself Sirius turned back to Desiree and said "Desiree, I am your father Sirius Black. I quite sure you've heard about me from Harry or other sources. My God you look so much like your mother." a misty expression came to his eyes as he thought about his deceased bride but quickly snapped his thoughts back to the present and to the lovely creature standing before him.
Noticing the gentleness in his voice and the look he had when he spoke to her or about her biological mother Desiree let some of the tension slide out of her muscles and asked him "So your my dad?" He nodded in repliance. "Ok. So your my father. Then why in the hell did you let that psycho bitch take me away from you if you claim to love me so much?" she asked very heatedly.
Sirius sighed heavily and sat down in the plush red chairs that were placed in a circle. "Sit down sprite, I have a long story to tell you." Looking over at Harry who nodded at her to do what he said Desiree sat parallel to her dad while Harry and Dumbledore slipped out of sight.
"All right, talk. Wait, wait. Before you start, why do you call me `sprite'? Do you mean sprite as in the drink?"
Siruis looked confused for a moment before saying "I've called you sprite since the day you were born. The term sprite means little devil, mischievous imp, demon. You were my little devil. You were always getting into trouble somehow one way or another and I loved every moment of it because you got it from me. And the answer to your question before that, I did not want Lydia to take you away from me. Those were very dark times Desiree. You could not trust anybody, not even your family. You've probably heard about Harry's story by now right?"
Desiree nodded in return "His parents were killed by that dude Voldermort or something right?"
"Right. But there is much more to the story than what the history books say. James Potter and I were best friends in school as were Lily and Nacole. When we got older, got married, and had children, absolutely nothing changed. We appointed Lily, Harry's mother, as your godmother and our other friend Remus Lupin as your godfather in case something ever happened to us. Unfortunately something happened beyond any of our control. The night Lily and James died, I went to check on Peter"
"He was their secret keeper right?" "Right, and left you with Lydia. She was not like she is now." he informed Desiree seeing her expression change from rapt attention to `I know you didn't!'
"Your mother had passed away in childbirth and it was just you and me. When I noticed that Peter wasn't at his hiding place, I went to James' in time to see Hagrid pull Harry out of the rubble. After seeing Hagrid off with Harry I went home to you because I didn't feel right about the situation, so I came straight home to find it in complete ruin."
Tears were now clogging Sirius's voice and were glisting in Desiree's desolate eyes. "I later discovered that Lydia had taken you and ran but by then it was too late. Everybody thought I had killed Lily, James, and Peter and I was sent to Azkaban. I never got the chance to tell anyone about my information but my father and by then I don't think he believed anything I said. So basically in three hours I lost two of my best friends, my daughter, godson, and life. Those twelve years in Azkaban never stopped me from thinking about you and how you were and what you looked like. I loved you then and I love you now. I know it will take awhile for you to love me equally if ever, but remember I love you and would do anything for you." Sirius finished his speech with tears trickling down his eyes.
Desiree sat in her seat numb. She didn't know what to think about his man in front of her or anything for that matter. Jerking herself out of the trance she had been in she noticed for the first time that she had tears streaming down her face in tiny rivers. Quickly wiping them away she began on her piece on life.
"Umm, I don't really know what to say. What I do know is that I am totally blown out of the water by all this. I have all these new feelings and sensations that are completely out of my league and I don't know how to deal with them."
"Are you talking about your powers or emotions?" "Both." she answered quietly. "I was talking to Hermione coming here and she told me that the last witch to have my kind powers was an evil witch named Nadina. Can you tell me anything else about them or her or are they like a mystery?" "No, they are not a mystery. In fact, they are the beginning of the end of a propechy that was told many years ago."
Sirius saw Desiree's eyebrows knit together as she leaned forward with the excitement of a child getting a bedtime story. "Tell me."
"Well, it began thousands of years ago in Greece. Zeus had been in power for awhile and some of the goddess thought it would be fun to create the perfect mortal. These four goddess were Athena, Pandora, Artemis, and Aphrodite. They each placed special gift unique to the creation and gifts of their own.
Athena, who was very wise, put some of her brains and her fighting abilities into it, Pandora gave her love for mischief, learned from Hermes himself, and her hope, Artemis gave the creation her graceful and swift nature, while Aphrodite gave it some of her beauty.
When the creation was complete Athena breathed life in to her and called her Disire. Disire was placed within the Black family prophesying that the heir of the goddesses will destroy darkness with the heir of the Phoenix.
The key to knowing who the heir was was very simple, it had to be a girl and she had to have hope. Hope is the last gift to appear in the heir. Centuries passed and no female was born into our family until several thousand years ago.
A baby girl was born into the family named Nadina. Everybody thought she was the heir to the goddesses, but they were very wrong. Nadina was alive during the age of Godric Gryffindor, Salazar Slytherin, Rowena Ravenclaw, you get the picture. Anyways, Nadina fell madly in love with Salazar and wanted to marry him but her father wouldn't hear of it because of Slytherin's evil ways.
When Nadina's father said no, she turned into this dark creature. Evil to the core and caused chaos and corruption everywhere. This proved to everyone that she was not the heir because the heir could never become so cruel. Gryffindor destroyed her, but not before she cursed the real heir of the goddesses.
She cursed the heir to a hard life, a life without real family or love so she could never develop hope, and swore on her deathbed that she would return by the means of the heir to finish what she started.
That's why your so special Desiree. Take your name for example, Desiree and Disire both mean `desired one' and you would be lying to me if you told me some of your powers hadn't surfaced yet." Sirius noticed a small grin playing at the features of his child's mouth, he also noticed that she was staring at him very perculiary.
"Why are you looking at me like that?" "Just seeing where I get it from." she answered with an air of casuality. "What it?" "Like where I get my nose, eyes, butt, ya' know, stuff like that." "Oh." said Sirius laughing. "Well, you have my eyes, nose, and ears; but you have your mothers figure, hair, smile, and laugh."
"When am I going to see you again?" she asked with worry in her voice because she knew their time was running short. "I don't know sprite. You can communicate with me through Harry, his owl knows where to find me. I will see you soon sprite, you can bet on it." "Bet then." said Desiree in a teasing voice.
"Miss. Black." Desiree spun around to find Dumbledore and Harry coming down a spiral staircase. "It is time for you and Harry to return to Gryffindor tower to get plenty of rest for your classes tomorrow." "All right." she said to the elderly man.
She turned to face her father and gave him a hug and whispered "Good night" into his ear and kissed him on the cheek and Harry gave him a hug and a slap on the back. "See ya Sirius."
"Hold it." Sirius said in a protective fatherly tone. "I saw that little display of affection you two gave each other in the Great Hall. Just a warning" he shot a look of murder at Harry "I do not want to see some boy, I don't care who he is, kissing on my little girl."
If anybody else had said that Desiree would have punked them out in an instant but with him it was different. Seeing the redness in Harry's face she said good night again and turned to walk down the staircase.
"You have a special child there Sirius, think you can handle her?" "The question is not if I can handle her, it's if Harry and or herself can handle her." Turning sober he said "Not once tonight did she actually call me dad." "Give her time. She will come around." Nodding somewhat reluctantly Sirius transformed back into the dog and left the room.
