Ron and Harry ran as fast as they could out of the castle and into the grounds, the only light from the moon and stars in the sky. Harry still had only his pajama bottoms on and Ron was in a shirt and boxers, but they didn't care. When they got into the forest, they heard another terrifying scream.
"Help!" it was definetly a girl.
"ROBYN!" Ron yelled.
"HELP!" she screamed.
"Over there!" Harry said, pointing deeper into the forest to their left.
20 excruciating seconds passed, while Ron kept yelling out and hearing a reply.
Suddenly, they saw a clearing. Robyn had apparently ran into Grawp and was on the ground, crouched behind a bush.
"Grawp, NO!" Harry yelled.
The giant turned his ugly head and headed towards Harry as Ron ran for Robyn.
"Holy crap, Robyn, are you ok?" Ron gasped, seeing the scrapes and bruises all over her body. Her robe was ripped across her upper back.
"I'm so sorry," Robyn sobbed, embarrassed and ashamed, "I don't know why I even ran out here... I didn't know where I was going... I just wanted to get away."
"It's ok, Robyn, "Ron said, tears forming in his own eyes, "Just please don't do that again."
Harry got Grawp calmed down by then and walked over to Ron and Robyn who were in a tight hug.
"So, now it all makes sense," Ron said, looking between Harry and Robyn.
"Yeah... I can't believe you're actually my brother!" Robyn sniffed, laughing and smiling at Harry.
"I know... I'm so happy I'm not alone!" Harry laughed with her, "And now you don't have to go back to the Malfoy's!"
"Oh, I can't wait to come and live with you!" she said, hugging him.
Harry thought about this for a moment. That meant he wouldn't have to be alone at his Aunt and Uncle's house. He finally had someone to talk to when he felt angry or upset.
"Alright, let's go back to the castle," Ron said after they parted.
Robyn put each arm around her boyfriend and brother. The two people she loved the most in the world and she'd only known them for 2 months. She couldn't believe how much everything's changed... Professor Trelawny was right.
When they got back to the castle, Robyn fell asleep in her nice, warm bed in only minutes after kissing Ron goodnight.
"Hey, Ron," Harry whispered in his four-poster to Ron who was beside him in his own bed, "You awake?"
"Mmm hmm..." Ron whispered back, propping himself on his elbow to face Harry, "What's up?"
"I think Robyn might be in danger," Harry winced.
"What? Why?" Ron replied, rubbing his eyes, trying to stay awake.
Harry leaned in closer, to make sure no one could hear if they were awake, "Voldemort will soon find out about Robyn... about how she's a Potter... I think he might try to kill her as well as me."
Ron's face fell. That ruined his chances of sleeping.
"I'm sorry, Ron," Harry apologized, not needing to, "I know you care about her alot."
"Yeah.. it's not your fault," Ron sighed, "We'll worry about it in the morning."
The next morning on a Sunday, Ron and Harry met Robyn in the Common Room. She was with Laura and Ginny, telling them that she and Harry were related and about what happened in the forest. They were both completely shocked at the news.
"Do you want to tell her?" Harry asked Ron.
"No, you go ahead," Ron said, nodding, "After all, she is your sister."
Harry to a deep breath and sat beside Robyn saying, "Hey, Robyn... there's something you should know."
Robyn's head spun around to face Harry.
"Hey, what's up?" she asked, flashing a smile.
"Um... this is going to be really shocking," Harry said, messing up his words. Robyn's smile faded and Ron, who was on the other side of her, squeezed her shoulder in comfort as Harry continued, "You're going to be in great danger soon, Robyn. Voldemort will soon find out that you're a Potter and he's going to try to kill you like he's doing to me, especially now that he's returned to full power."
"What? Oh my god," Robyn said, looking around at her friends, "You're right." She swallowed her tears. She'd learned this when modeling in America: Everything was two-sided. You had to be ready to take the good with the bad. The happy with the sad. The confidence with the doubt.
"Maybe we should go tell Dumbledore about this," Harry said.
"Yeah, ok," Robyn said, getting up, "See you later, guys."
So they both headed to Dumbledore's office awkwardly.
"Look Robyn, I know this is going to suck with Voldemort after us and all," Harry suddenly said, "But I want you to know that I'll always be there to protect you from him."
Robyn smiled, "Thanks, Harry. That means alot."
"After all, you are my sister," Harry said, "And you're the only decent family member I have left."
"Wait... who do you live with?" Robyn said suspiciously.
"Well... they're our Aunt Petunia, Uncle Vernon and Cousin Dudley Dursley. They've been really cruel to me too," Harry said, watching Robyn's face fall yet again, "But I'm sure we'll be fine. As long as we're both there for each other to talk to."
"Yeah... however mean they are, I'm sure they're not as abusive as the Malfoys," Robyn snorted.
"Yeah," Harry agreed as they stopped in front of the statue with the gargoyle.
Harry suddenly remembered they didn't know the password, so he started guessing.
"Sherbert Lemon, Cockroach Clusters, Sugar Quills," Harry guessed randomly.
"Er.. have you gone insane or something, Harry?" Robyn said, "What are you saying?"
"I'm trying to guess the password," Harry said, looking frustratedly at the gargoyle.
"Just let us through!" Robyn nearly yelled at it.
To their surprise, the gargoyle finally leaped aside and let them through.
"Huh.. that's odd," Harry said, scratching his head.
Before they could knock on Dumbledore's door, Dumbledore said, "Come in."
"How did you know we were coming?" Robyn asked after they stepped inside the circular room.
"I could hear you two yelling at my gargoyle, that's how," Dumbledore said, smirking.
"Oh.. sorry," Harry said. Robyn nodded sheepishly.
"It's fine. I decided to let you guys in finally, since I was afraid you'd both start kicking it in frustation," Dumbledore said.
They couldn't help but laugh.
"Professor, there's something important we need to tell you," Harry said.
"Please sit," Dumbledore said without expression changed, gesturing to the empty armchairs in front of his desk.
Robyn explained the dream she had the night before, leaving out the part where she ran off into the forest.
"So do you think Voldemort might be after Robyn as well?" Harry asked.
"Yes, I do," Dumbledore said gravely, "Now, Robyn, you must be very careful about not running into any danger. We need to change your name in the school to Robyn Potter, of course, and even though this isn't safe, we must contact the Malfoys and tell them that you have gone to your rightful parents. That means Mr. Malfoy will have to tell Voldemort why his "daughter" isn't with him sooner or later, and he will tell Voldemort about you being a Potter. I suggest to stick with someone wherever you go, even in the school. Someone you can trust to protect you."
"Alright, Professor. I understand," she said. She smiled at Harry when he said to be around someone that would protect her.
"Good day, then, you two," Dumbledore said.
"You too Professor, and thanks."
They walked back to the Common Room in silence. When they got there, they told Ron, Laura and Ginny everything that was going on. Afterwards, they decided to go to Hogsmeade to get their minds off Voldemort for a while. At 9 o'clock that night, they walked back to the castle.
"Robyn? Could you follow me for a minute?" Ron asked.
"Sure." They both stopped walking.
"Alright, now I need you to wear this blindfold," Ron said, holding up a blue handkerchief.
"Um.. ok.." Robyn said, facing the other way so he could tie it on her.
"What are they doing?" Ginny wondered aloud.
"Ron's surprising her," Harry laughed.
Everyone raised their eyebrows.
"Wow, that's nice," Laura said.
"Where are you taking me?" Robyn laughed as Ron took her hand and led her to the Quidditch Pitch.
Stopping in front of the broom closet, Robyn heard Ron rummaging through something.
"What are you doing?"
"You'll see," Ron said, grinning ear to ear.
He took out Harry's broom, his firebolt. He'd let Ron borrow it for the special occasion. Finally, Ron took off the blindfold.
She gasped when she saw what was in Ron's hands. A firebolt and a bouqet of a dozen red roses.
"Oh, Ron, they're beautiful!" she said, smiling and sniffing the roses. She hugged Ron, trying not to squash them.
"Guess where I'm taking you?" Ron said, happy that she was happy.
"Where?" Robyn said, loving every minute of this.
"On a moon-light broomstick ride!" Ron said gleefully.
"Oh my god! Thank-you!" Robyn exclaimed, setting the roses down in the stands and rushed into Ron's arms.
Ron picked her up and spun around once. They both mounted the broom with Robyn in the front. They soared over the forest, sweeped down to the lake and skimmed the water, and weaved in between the towers of Hogwarts. Robyn felt so secure in Ron's arms when they flew around the grounds. After about two hours of freedom, they finally circled downwards to the Quidditch pitch.
"Ron, you have no clue how happy this has made me," Robyn said, wrapping her arms around his neck, "Those were the best two hours of my life."
She pressed her lips against his and they kissed the most passionately they'd ever had. When she got her roses from the stands, they headed back to the castle, hand in hand. When they got back to the common room, Robyn rolled up her sleeves from an old habit.
"I love you," Robyn whispered in Ron's ear and kissed him softly, "Good night, Ron."
Ron watched her go up the steps. Then he saw something extremely shocking displayed upon Robyn's wrists.
A/N: Yeah, I know, too much throw-uppy lovey dovey stuff. But something very dramatic did happen! So please R&R, as always. And I hope you like it!
