Chapter 4: The Guardian
A/N: ;): I thought and thought and finally came up with her being in Slytherin. Thanks for liking it!
Jeanne: Thank you, it could be possible that Lupin and Black are lackeys; it is fanfic, just a fun story of my imagination.
fairysk8r: Don't worry, Dawn WILL survive! More is in store for you!
Cassie-bear01: I agree about the bed-time thing, but when did someone tell her to go to bed. Thank you!
oracle star: Thank you for liking it! I'm trying to hurry; I don't wanna rush and make it bad.
SlySlayer13: Don't worry, I don't stop posting until I'm done with my story! It may be a while sometimes before I post, but that's only writer's block. I hurry as fast as I can!

Dawn woke up late the next morning to an ugly face over her. It was Pansy Parkinson, the pug-faced loser she met the night before. Pansy tried to befriend her. Dawn was only being nice to her, she really didn't like her.
"Good, you're up. I didn't want you to be late on your first day to classes" Pansy said.
"Yea" Dawn replied, groggily. She really wasn't a morning person. Dawn got out of the four-poster bed she had resided in that last night and put her clothes on.
"I'll show you the way to the Great Hall. So, what classes do you have today?" Pansy asked.
"Uh, okay, here" Dawn said. She gave Pansy her schedule.
"Oh good! We have two classes together, Herbology and Charms" Pansy said all excited.
"Great" Dawn said sarcastically and rolled her eyes as Pansy dragged her out of the room. A blonde male was leaning against the wall with his arms folded across his chest.
"Not quite a morning person, are we?" he asked.
"No" she replied. It was Draco Malfoy, the guy that Hermione, Ron, and Harry loathed.
"We have to be going, honey" Pansy said to Draco. He rolled his eyes and she left. Dawn giggled under her breath so Pansy wouldn't hear her. Actually, she wanted her to hear her, but she just didn't want to be rude just yet.
They entered the Great Hall and it seemed like tons of students were there. Dawn followed Pansy all around to get to the table. She propped her head up on her hand as she ate a pastry.
Dumbledore stood up to give a little morning announcement before sending the students off to their first class of the term. "May I have your attention?" he asked gently. Dawn looked up at him as he smiled down with the blue twinkle in his eye.
"The teachers and I need to see Dawn Summers before going to classes. Thank you, you may go" he said. Dawn could feel her face burning a little as everyone had all eyes on her. When everyone finally left, she picked up her bag and headed up to the Head Table.
"Dawn, as you know the Ministry had you taken away." She nodded as he went on. "You have a legal guardian right here, in England for you. He will watch over you and care for you. He doesn't want me to give it away right now, so at the end of your last class of the day, go out to the gardens and sit on the bench beside the fountain. He will find you there" Dumbledore said. And with that, she left with suspense filling her head.

Gosh, she couldn't take it anymore. It was killing her. Only an hour left of History of Magic and she will be meeting her guardian. Professor Binns was the most boring professor in the universe! He didn't even have any 'bounce' in his voice, only a flat tone he used all the time.
After a while, she just drifted off. "Hey Summers" someone kept saying in her ear. She popped her head up once when a ticklish feeling came upon her ear. A few of the students stared at her, but Professor Binns didn't notice because he wasn't looking in her direction.
"Will you kindly stop?" she whispered in a deadly voice to Draco.
"I couldn't help myself. Oh, and you can borrow my notes in the common room" he said.
"Notes? What notes?" she asked.
"The ones we wrote down while you were taking your beauty nap" he mocked.
"Shut up" she replied.
"Remember, read chapters one through three tonight. Class dismissed" Binns called out. The students grabbed all of their stuff and ran out of the classroom happy to get out of the boring class.
Dawn nervously went out. She could feel her legs trembling under her; they felt like spaghetti to walk on. *This is it* she thought. She stopped in the front of the gardens and took a deep breath. She finally headed over to the fountain.
Nobody was there yet so she set her books down and waited. Next thing you know, a man is coming towards her. The only thing Dawn could hear was her heart pounding in her chest, nothing else. At all.
"Dawn" he said. She looked up and saw a man, Sirius Black.
"Hey" she replied. The pounding leaping in and out of her chest went down a little, but not a lot.
"I'm your guardian" he said. Her heart fell to the bottom of her stomach. It wasn't what she was expecting. She did like Sirius, but nothing came out of her mouth. "Here" he said. He handed her a small gift-wrapped box.
She opened it. Inside was a small necklace with a small locket. "Thank you. So much" she said. Her breath was almost taken away from her; it was surprising that he would do something this sweet for her when he only knew her for a week or so.
"Sorry for so much suspense, I just wanted to tell you myself" Sirius said.
"Its okay" she replied. When she first met Sirius he seemed bossy and annoying and mean. Now he seemed so sweet and gentle that he couldn't hurt a fly. "I don't understand" Dawn said.
"What don't you understand?" he asked, sitting beside her.
"How come you are my guardian? You don't know me that well."
"There are things you mustn't know until you are a little bit older" he said.
"But-"
"There can't be any 'buts', Dawn. It must wait" he said. "You should be getting to dinner now" he rose as she did. She quietly picked up her books and left after smiling at him. She walked up to the common room and into the room she stayed in with Pansy.
On the way up there, Draco stopped her. "How did it go?" he purred to her.
"That's none of your business" Dawn said stopping.
"I know your guardian is Black, I have my ways."
"It went fine" she stammered.
"Good" he said. "We can't let anything happen to you now, can we?" he ran a finger gently down her jaw line. She glared at him and then just walked off into her room.
"Don't think your getting away with it" Pansy said, storming in the dorm room.
"Get away with what?" Dawn asked.
"Draco's mine and you know it! Everyone's always trying to take him away from me. Well let me tell you something, missy. You aren't getting him. I'm the leader of the girls in the Slytherin house and you're just my little peasant girl" Pansy replied. She was right up in Dawn's face.
"I'm not trying to take him away from you. And newsflash, he doesn't even like you. Just get a life okay? And one other thing, get out of my FACE!" Dawn yelled.
The two girls stood there looking daggers at one another until Pansy finally broke apart. "It's not over; you're not seeing the last of me."
"Oh yea, more of the pug-faced, loser, bitch around here" Dawn said with great sarcasm.
"I've had enough of your crap!" Pansy yelled. She ran up to Dawn and slapped her in the face.
"That's all you've got?" Dawn asked looking offended. She drew back her fist and it rammed right into Pansy's nose, she fell back with a cry and held it while blood ran out of it.
"You still haven't seen the last of me!" and she walked out.
"Cry baby" Dawn whispered to herself while putting her books on her bed.
