Chapter 2: Nightmares

Daniela fell deeper into the dream. It was always the same. The same horrible beginning and tragic end. But why was she dreaming about it now. Could it finally be time to go home?

In the dream:
'No not Harry. Please don't kill him.' cried Lily shielding her son.
'I'll kill you first you bitch. Then I'll kill your brat.' growled Voldermort.
There was a blast of green light, and then Lily body was lying on the ground. NOOOOOOO!!!!! NOT BOTH OF THEM! I CAN'T LOSE BOTH OF THEM. I saw Voldermort raise his arm to strike Harry. NO YOU DON'T YOU JERK. I ran to shield Harry with my back facing Voldermort. I felt a pain in the back of my neck. My world went black and I thought I must be dead.

I woke up again at Sirius's house with a blanket over me. At first I didn't remember what had happened. Then I did. I wish to God I hadn't. I began to cry and at the sound of my tears and sobs, Sirius ran into the room.
"It's alright Danny. You're safe now. He won't hurt you again." Sirius tried to comfort me, but just as I started to relax the room exploded with Auror. It took me a minute to realize that they were after Sirius. I didn't understand. What had Sirius done? Just as I started to get up Albus Dumbledore came into the room.
He lifted me into his arms and walked outside. I was taken to the Leaky Caldron and given some medicine to help me sleep. While the drugs were taking effect Dumbledore told me that Sirius would be brought to justice for he betrayed Lily and James. Before I could tell him that it was Peter not Sirius the drugs had put me into a deep sleep.

Later I was brought to trail with Sirius. Now looking back at it I should have kept my mouth shut. But I was young and stupid. I really thought that truth always won. I was wrong.
In the beginning of the trail I had told everyone that Peter had given up my brother not Sirius. But what adult would listen to a 15 year old. Only Dumbledore believed me, but that didn't matter much then. Sirius was convicted and sent to prison. And I was sent to Hogwarts.
By the decree of the Minster of Magic I was to be keep at Hogwarts until I was of age to leave. They would throw me into prison, I was too young. But I was crazy and under a powerful spell. I was to be kept away from Sirius and Harry at all cost. They even went as far as to put a curse on me.

The day I graduated Hogwarts the Minister of Magic came. "Danny we cannot allow you near Harry. With your state of mind you might hurt me or worst. Therefore we have no other choice." "What are you going to do to me?" "We are going to make sure you don't go near Harry or Sirius." Just then a very angry Dumbledore came into the room along with other wizards and witches I didn't recognize.

"Cornelius! I must protest to put that kind of a spell on her is unthinkable. I won't allow it!" screamed Dumbledore in fury. I can't remember every seeing him like that before.

"It can't be helped Albus." And while a large wizard held Dumbledore, the rest of the group formed a circle around me. "Now let us begin.

For this moment on

Let her never be human around them

She may look at them from afar

But never a part of the group will she be anymore

Until they unite together of they own choice

May she only have for them an animal's voice."

Daniela woke up in a cold sweat. 'That same damn dream. Why? Why did it have to happen that way?' Daniela got out of bed and looked up at the sky. It had been 14 years since she had last held Harry. She had seen him often. In her loin form. And she had often wanted to kill that family he lived with. But Uncle Albus had made her promise not to to anything wrong. And out of respect for her adopted uncle she had done as he wished.

The minister's curse had worked wonderfully. Daniela could not come within 12 feet of Harry before she transformed into a large white lioness. And a huge cat couldn't take care of a baby.

Daniela yelled in pain as the scar on the base of her neck began to burn. 'Why is the scar burning? Voldermort.' Her mind was already racing. 'What about Harry?' Daniela walked out side and yelled "Telika!" Immediately a golden griffin like creature came to her. "Telika, I need you to take me to Hagrid. He'll know how to find Uncle Albus." The great beast launched itself and its rider into the air. 'I just hope I'm not too late,' thought Daniela as she looked into the night.
