"Well done Fallon!" the charms masters' voice could be heard echoing around the room.
It was three days since she had come here and it seemed to her that these classes were just far too easy. She had been subjected to scrutiny and harsh words at home from the wizards she'd grown up with. She'd already learned most of this stuff. They had just moved on to the parts that she'd never learned, and she was finding it just a bit harder, but it was just the same to her, school.
She'd met most of the people in her classes, because no one was afraid to just come up and introduce themselves. Except Neville, to whom she had to introduce herself on the second day of term.

There were other things going on in her life, she hadn't forgotten about Sirius, and images of him still came to her dreams. She had forced Harry, Hermione, Ron, and anyone else who had been present to recall their story of the night Sirius had died, she had soaked up every single detail and finally felt that she could rest, now understanding the circumstances in which the only link to herself had died.

She had decided to change her last name from Smith to Black. Though she had gotten sneers from Slytherins already, she had more plausible causes than just her god father; Christa's maiden name had been Black. She found it fit to honor two important people in her life.
"Hello, Fallon" Hermione sat in the empty chair next to her.

"Or should I say, Ms. Black." Hermione took out two pieces of paper, one with the U.S seal on it, and another with England's seal.

"It's all official. I'd been talking to Dumbledore and he told me to give this to you." Hermione smiled at her.
"Alright, class is dismissed. Remember I want one full roll on complex order charms." Professor Flitwick jumped off his stack of books and walked out into the hall followed closely by Fallon and Hermione.
"Well, well if it isn't our favorite mud blood?" Malfoy sneered at Hermione as he walked in front of the two girls.
Hermione ignored Malfoy as best she could. But he placed himself right in front of them as and held his ground.
"And, who, are you?" Fallon said in a cutting voice unable to resist knowing more about her surroundings.

"Draco Malfoy. Who are you? A mud blood, I'd suppose, if you're hanging out with this one." Malfoy jerked his head at Hermione.
"Fallon Black." Fallon said lightly

"Black? You have the honor of being a black and you choose to hang out with her?" Malfoy stepped closer to try to intimidate Fallon, but she just stood up straighter and stared right back at him. Then she turned on her heel and over her shoulder said.

"Nice to meet you, I guess."

That night in the common room after dinner Harry and Ron were stuck trying to do their charms essays and having trouble. Hermione was curled in a corner reading a book, and Fallon was trying desperately to fix one of her favorite robes, but was almost in tears.
"Jesus Christ! I'm just nothing with needle and thread; no one ever taught me how to do this!" She took in a deep calming breath and threw the robes onto a near by chair.
"What's wrong?" Hermione said, closing her book and putting it on a nearby table. "You're not usually this angry"
"Oh, nothing, it's just this stupid seventh year Ravenclaw, he won't leave me alone. He just keeps on hitting on me. But I'm too nice to say anything about it." Fallon prodded the fire with her wand.

"Fal, honestly, would you stop that? Who is this boy anyway?"

"No one, I've already forgotten about it."

"Who?"

"David Talon."

"But, he just asked Lavender out, didn't he?"

Lavender turned at the sound of her name. She had been talking to a group of her friends. As soon as she saw Fallon, she glared and got to her feet. Fallon hadn't bothered looking over she was busy shooting sparks at the fire.

"Fallon Black, is it me, or are you trying to pick my boyfriend up? I've heard quite a lot of things and I'm warning you now, if you even look at him again, you'll have trouble with me!"

"I promise I won't look at him, ever again. I mean it Lav." Fallon stood up and pulled a straight face, looking serious.

Lavender held her tough face and turned back to her friends. Hermione looked at Fallon absolutely awestruck.

"You're amazing, you know that? Like anyone else could avoid that, she was out for your blood!" She said as Fallon let herself fall onto the couch.

Three hours later everyone had left the common room and Harry and Ron had finished their papers and managed to fit a game of exploding snap in before they went to bed. Hermione had gone back to reading, and Fallon and Ginny had gone up to her dormitory already.

"Oh, Harry, I just remembered something." Fallon came bounding down the stairs.

She strode up to Harry and grasped his head. He immediately started squirming and yelling.

"GEERROOFF!" Harry yelled

She let go easily and stared at his forehead with a far way expression on her face.

"What was that for!?" Harry said, ruffling his hair to hide his scar. "If it's any consolation-" She ran her finger carelessly over her scar and it showed bright, as usual. "- I've seen that scar before, looks like we have more in common than our godfather."

Harry just stared at her scar, he couldn't believe it. How could it be that she, this out of nowhere girl, could have So much in common with his life?

"You…You have my scar." He said breathlessly

"Yeah, I do. And we need to figure out why." Fallon replied.

"Who are you?" Harry looked up with meaning in his eyes.

Fallon look serious "I don't know."

Harry grabbed Fallons' wrist and ran his finger along where the scar should have been it lit up as his finger touched it.

Fallon looked at her wrist in shock "You shouldn't be able to do that, only I can make it appear."

"Well then it's settled, both of your scars are related in some way. I've been reading up on it as of late…" Hermione said

"There's nothing on it in the library, I've already checked."

"Oh," Hermione said, "well I haven't found anything either, I guess we'll just have to keep looking. That reminds me Harry, the D.A, when are we going to start that up again?"

"You're kidding right?" Ron looked at Hermione with horror "Do you remember the load of trouble we got in when people figured out?"

"That was when Umbrige was around, she's not anymore, we are free to do as we wish, and I think it would be a great idea to start it up again."

"What's D.A?" Fallon asked

"It's a defense program that Harry teaches; you will definitely have to come."

"Where will we go?" Harry said "Everyone knows about our last place."

"You guys really don't get it do you? I already talked to Dumbledore about it this morning during charms; he said that it is a wonderful idea, and that he will be looking forward to attending a couple times himself, as long as we don't name it Dumbledore's Army again."

"Well, alright, but it makes me uncomfortable to teach, you know, and I don't know how many people will come."

"Harry, people loved it, you are so good at teaching once you get started. I'm sure everyone will want to come! I'll get a beginning meeting set up at the Leaky Cauldron. We'll do it at the Hogsmead after next."

Two weeks later it was the first visit to Hogsmead of the year, Ron Hermione Harry and Fallon were all going together. They stopped at Honey Dukes and The Shrieking Shack. Fallon was amazed with all of it, she loved Hogsmead. As they were on their way to the joke shop Fallon felt something hit her back. She turned around to se what it was, letting Ron Harry and Hermione walk ahead. She noticed a shape move in the shadows of an alleyway between shops. She moved a little closer to investigate but quickly found what she was looking for. A man stood in the middle of the alley way he hesitated slightly but rushed forward and caught her by the neck. She pulled at his arm, trying to free herself.

"Well, well, well, I guess there's no love placed on you, poor child. Makes my job easier, I don't even need magic. You're just a waste of space, what was he thinking? That you could be a trouble to us?"

Fallon felt anger and adrenaline start to take over, like boiling water searing through her veins, slowly taking over.

No, she heard her head say forcefully no, you can't loose it.

I don't know how long I'm going to keep doing this, though I have minor plans for where this is going, i don't think Fallon is turning out the way I planned. So this might be my last chapter for this one.

By the by, thank you to the people wh reveiwed. I 'preaciate it.
