Harry and his friends had been so into the conversation that was happening no one had noticed a figure had entered the room and was standing by the door. This figure was very tall he had scraggly black hair and he appeared like he hadn't been eating anything. The man cleared his throat and his brought four sets of eyes in his direction.
"Sirius!" Harry jumped up from where he had been sitting on the bed and rushed to him wrapping his arms around him and giving him a happy hug. Sirius hugged him back then pulled away. "I am glad to see that your finally here Harry sorry I couldn't be there when you arrived Dumbledore needed me in the meeting." Harry looked at him smiling. "Its all right I am glad to see you." Sirius gave him a smile that held the love he had for his godson. "I am glad to see you to Harry I tried to get Dumbledore to let you come sooner but he wouldn't hear of it."
"Hey Sirius do you know if mum is working on supper now that the meetings done?" Sirius smile widened and he laughed Ron was always hungry. "Yes Ron I do believe she has started it." Sirius had said this in a chuckling voice. "Good I am starving hey Kat I don't think you have met Harry's godfather and I never wrote about him to you because he was a secret even mum didn't know we had been conversing with him." Sirius looked at the cross-legged redhead. "So your the one Mrs. Weasley has been hounding every one to clean up after them selves for." Katharine gave him a toothy smile "yep that's me so why was he a secret and why tell me now if he's a secret?" Ron shook his head. "Really Kat sometimes you can be so dense the reason why he's a secret is he is wanted by Azkaban for a crime he didn't commit, and the reason why I told you now is your going to have to stay here so you would find out anyway.
"What crime was that?" Sirius answered this time his face turning grim from the smile he once held "murder is what I was convicted of." Katharine's eyes went wide "that's terrible" Harry nodded in agreement "Now that you know Katharine I mean Kat you cant tell anyone and don't speak of him out lowed when others are around understood?" Katharine turned her eyes to Harry who had been the one to say this "yes I understand don't worry I wont say nothing."
"What was your meeting about?" Harry asked. "Its confidential Harry stuff only the grownups are allowed to know so don't worry about it." Harry bit his lower lip he had something else he wanted to know. "Has Voldermort done anything yet?" Ron shuddered at the name Katharine didn't have any reaction at all and Hermione cringed. "Not yet all thought their frequent sightings of his Death Eaters." Black paused for a moment then went on "the order believes Voldermort is planning something big and bidding time before his attack."
A voice rang through the air bringing their discussion short the voice was that of Mrs. Weasley telling them dinner was ready. "I think this is where the conversation will end let's get down to dinner kids." Hermione, Ron, Katharine, and Harry followed Sirius out of the room each of them having to step over Harry's trunk to get out the door. As they all neared the bottom of the stairs Harry saw a familiar greasy haired figure standing next to the door looking very annoyed at Mrs. Weasley who appeared to be trying to talk him in to eating dinner before going. "I can get my own dinner at my Residence Mrs. Weasley I don't need any of yours." Harry who was directly behind Sirius could see his back stiffen and could have sworn his godfather had let out a low growl.
Snapes attention snapped over to where they had stopped on the stairs upon seeing him. "Ah if its not the formidable host and I see he's found Potter and what's this a new Weasley I presume I wouldn't get to close to him if I where you he might give you fleas." This time Harry knew for sure Sirius had growled. Mrs. Weasley was looking back and forth between Sirius and Black trying to decide how best to handle the situation. "Severus you old git I am glad to see your leavening before dinner." "I think you need to put him in his Kennel Mr. Potter before he does something that he will regret." With that being said Snape turned opened the door and left slamming it behind him.
"Really you to are worse then children you both need to grow up I for one am getting tired of listening to the both of you bicker and through insults at each other every meeting you better get use to him Sirus because your going to have to work with him." Black had relaxed considerable when Snape left. "I know Molly he just makes it so hard." Sirius climbed down the last of the steps. Molly looked over his shoulder and her frown turned to a smile when she saw Katharine. "Hello Kat dear" Katharine stepped to the side of the others who hadn't started walking yet and rushed down the other side of the stairs. She wrapped her arms around Mrs. Weasley and gave her a happy hug. "Hi Aunt Molly I am glad to see you."
Mrs. Weasley patted her back until she let go. "I bet your hungry dear lets get you to the kitchen and get some food into you come along Harry Ron Hermione." Mrs. Weasley led Katharine into the kitchen where dinner was waiting.
"Sirius!" Harry jumped up from where he had been sitting on the bed and rushed to him wrapping his arms around him and giving him a happy hug. Sirius hugged him back then pulled away. "I am glad to see that your finally here Harry sorry I couldn't be there when you arrived Dumbledore needed me in the meeting." Harry looked at him smiling. "Its all right I am glad to see you."
