Author's note: Yeah the ending to the last chapter = a bit sudden, but come on something had to happen, it was getting too nice. It probably would have been different if I didn't want to include some butterbeer in there!! But Hey I've finally finished typing up this chapter. For alittle bit of a spoiler, more secrets are revealed. Muahahaha.
Zoey had blacked out when she was grabbed. All she remembered was being put on a broomstick. She woke up hours later in a dark room with no windows. She had been sleeping on a bed, this was no doubt a cell.
"Oh no," she thought, "What happened? Where am I? Is it ..." She didn't dare even think the name, even that was to frightening.
"Harry! Ron ! Hermione!" she said outloud. She heard no other movement in the cell. Oh no, what if they were torturing them, and she was next?
Suddenly the door banged open and some one entered with some sort of tray.
"Good you're up then," said the shadowed person at the door "it's lunch time."
"Who, who are you," Zoey sputtered.
"Oh, I'm so sorry dear," she said flipping the light switch, "I'm Molly Weasley, Ron's mom."
"Oh, thank goodness," breathed Zoey, "I thought that we had been captured by Lord Voldermort and you were here to torture me."
"Goodness me no, nothing of the sort. In fact you four are in a safehold where he can't possibly find you. Professor Hardbroom, Professor Snape, and Hagrid brought you here as soon as the riot broke out in Hogsmede."
"Well, where exactly is here?"
"The black family mansion, Sirius' Blacks house."
"Harry's godfather, who..."
"Yes, unfortunately he was killed last year, but he left his house to his older sister and so the Order has taken..."
"The order?" Zoey questioned.
"Yes dear, the Order of the Phoenix, we are an order against he who must not be named. So you see you are quite safe here. And if you would like some lunch I brought up a sandwich and some soup for you. If you want to freshen up, you can join everyone downstairs later."
So Zoey ate her soup and then braided her hair, half nervous to go downstairs. But in the end she grabbed the tray and carefully carried it downstairs. The large room was filled with people, some she recognized and some she didn't. She saw a woman with bright blue hair, another sort of scraggly guy, Professor Snape, Ron's older brother's Fred and George, Ron, Hermione, and....
"Zoey," Constance breathed as she got up to put an arm around her daughter's shoulder, "I'm so glad that you finally woke up." She ushered her daughter to a seat in between herself and the lady with the blue hair. Hermione and Ron grinned at her from across the table.
"Where's Harry?" she asked Hermione.
"Well, he's still upstairs," she answered, "I think he must have blacked out because of the pain in his scar. I'm sure he'll be downstairs soon."
"Yes," said the woman with the blue hair, "If I know Harry, He'll recovered right enough. Oh I'm Tonks by the way."
"Nice to meet you and, err, you certainly have interesting hair."
"I can change it anyway I like, in fact I can change any part of my appearance. It's a gift I guess."
"Wow," Zoey muttered, "that must come in pretty handy."
"Yeah it does. So your mother brought you here eeh," whispered Tonks.
"I guess so," she said looking at Constance, who was deep in conversation with Snape, "I just thought that no one really knew that I was her daughter."
"Oh well, I guess I've known you since you were a baby," tonks replied, "I mean, she always brought you here to the Order. You know, she was quite a fighter in her day."
"Believe me she still is," Zoey said, not really knowing how to take this information. Her mother not only had a life here, Zoey was part of it, and it was still mysterious. She realized she knew nothing, including who her father was. Right now, she realized that she needed to find these things out. She simply figured that she just needed to know what Constance had been telling her, but she realized there was much more at hand.
She was about to ask Tonks some questions, casually, so as to find out more information. But just at that moment Molly Weasley, her husband, and Ginny came into the room carrying platters of food for dinner. The talk instantly stopped and the whole table ended up in a deep conversation about the events at Hogsmede.
"Hmm," Zoey thought, "I'll have to get her alone later." But she had no chance because Constance, the scraggly guy whose name was Mad Eye Moody, and Tonks were on duty.
So she spent the evening with Harry, who had finally come down in the middle of dinner, Ron, and Hermione. They played some riveting games of Wizard's chess and later they helped Fred and George try to spy on the "secret" conversation in the dinning room, but got in trouble from Molly and were sent straight to bed. Hermione was rooming with Ginny, so Zoey got a room all to herself. She was lonely, but too tired to care. Suddenly the door squeaked open. It was Minerva McGonagall.
"Zoey?" she called "Your mother just wanted me to make sure that you were okay and tuck you in."
"Okay," Zoey deciding that Minerva seemed to know her mother well. Maybe she could ask her.
"Professor, can you tell me anything about my life before... well before I was separated from my family."
"Well yes dear," Minerva said cautiously as she sat down on Zoey's bed. "You lived at Hogwarts with your mother and father during the year." Immediately she stopped, knowing that statement would lead to questions about Severus. She continued, "Unfortunately you were born in the time of he who must not be named. He was terrorizing the magic world, and so you also spent a lot of time here. In fact I can remember taking care of you when your mother was away."
"Wow, I had no idea that I had been involved even the slightest in this whole Order thing. I thought we lead a quite life in the country. But, can you tell me who my father is."
"Your father," Minerva stuttered, "Your mother knows him better than I do, I don't think I can tell you much."
"Well do you know his name?"
"Um, it has slipped my mind as so many things have in my old age. Well dear you must be tired, try and get some rest." And with that she patted the blankets and glided out of the room. She couldn't tell her, she wanted to, but that was up to Constance and Severus.
