Chapter two: Meeting uncle Sirius
"Well nice talking to you Alice, I have to go home and finish packing for tomorrow," Jess said.
"Tomorrow?" Alice asked a bit dazed. "What's tomorrow?"
"Alice you asshole, we're leaving for Hogwarts tomorrow!"
"Oh shit I totally forgot, I've got to get home too and start packing."
Jess rolled her eyes at her friend. "Bye Alice ,see you tomorrow in the Hogwarts express," she said before leaving.
"Bye Jess" Alice waved at the distance before returning to Grimauld Place.
"I'm back!"
"We're in the kitchen!"
Alice dropped the shopping back on the entrance and hurried to the darkened kitchen lit by the warm fireplace on the end. What Alice saw was amusing, and highly funny.
Her cousin, Liliz Black was holding a huge bowl on her arms, her face covered with bits of white powder. Her gray eyes landed on Alice at the door and exploded with twinkling and mischievous hints while her long raven hair hang loosely behind her back. She was pale, sure, she never liked to be outside for fun, and she rather spends her time doing something useful and annoying yet her slim , tall figure hide the twenty three years she have.
Beside her was Sirius Black, the ex convict prisoner of Azkaban with long smooth raven hair, luminous gray eyes, pale skin and frowning expression. "Lil, how did you just operate this oven?"
Liliz rolled her eyes and turn on a black shabby button while holding the bowl with one hand. "That's how."
Sirius grinned as the oven start to heat over; that's when he noticed Alice on the door, her arms crossed looking at them amusedly. "Hey, hey! How was shopping Ali?"
She smiled at her uncle. "Not all that great, had some unsettling moments."
"Too bad," he replied shortly but Liliz eyed her, knowing the unsettling moments can have the word Malfoy in. Sirius then took the bowl from Liliz's hand and start performing spells with his wand at him and under his breath.
Alice watched both siblings intently, as they prepare what it could be a cake. Nobody could had deny both Liliz and Sirius were both father and daughter. Since they met Liliz took the habit of dressing like Sirius after the man escaped from Azkaban. Sirius usually dressed with black trouser, high heeled boots, sleeveless dark purple shirt and a long dark brown cloak that hung loosely on his back, covering only his chest and shoulder. Liliz dressed the same way, but her trousers were tight, her shirt was silver and her cloak was black. Sirius had persuaded the woman to change such style but she refused to.
Yes, Sirius Black was finally a free man, yet he doesn't step outside much. After Peter Pettigrew was caught and found alive by the Ministry, hastily, Sirius was call to custody and cleared from all the charges and with a forgiving pension for his mistaken years over the horrible prison of Azkaban. Still, he was not given custody over Harry Potter, since Dumbledore hereby defended this static as protection of blood and wards over the bloody Dursley House.
Liliz had, of course finished her studies on basics of Potion maneuvering and many uses of technique for Potion masters on an academy near Scotland. Despite her young years back then, Liliz took care of little Alice since seven ( she was only thirteen, ran off her foster parents house). Liliz studied on a private wizardry boarding school that allowed her to take her cousin in until the small girl was older enough to assist Hogwarts and her to move there too. That's when Sirius looked for Liliz on Harry fourth year and at the end of Harry's fifth year Sirius took Liliz in Grimmauld Place along with Alice (despite it was his brother's daughter).
"What are you looking at?" Sirius asked inches away from Alice's face. Startled Alice jumped back and almost fell of the chair. Sirius grinned while Liliz chuckled; Sirius just couldn't stop annoying the hell out of people.
"I bloody hate when you do that," Alice murmured
"So," Sirius started saying, sitting ahead the slim rebel Alice, "What happened that unsettled your shopping so much."
Liliz tensed. She knew it can cost Alice to angrily spat the truth and even hurt Sirius innocence personality. Sometimes, Sirius never grows up. But Alice smoothly, knowing exploding will not help matters she explained Sirius everything she had planned to do with the Malfoy for her parents death.
"Wow I'm impressed to see that's how you feel, but revenge won't solve anything," Sirius said, "But on the other hand you aren't the first Black who wants to get back at the Malfoys for something."
"But want do you mean; are you saying you have a grudge against the Malfoys ?"
"You fucking bet I do, I didn't like that asshole since he was dating Narcissa, But what can I say what's done is done. But if you are going to get back at the Malfoys count me in, I have a score to settle with the asshole of Lucius."
"Father!" Liliz exclaimed a bit annoyed. "You're not supposed to say such things!"
"It's the bloody truth! Those bloody Malfoy think they have all the right and reason!"
"You always have grudges against people. I wouldn't be surprise at all if that Snape fellow Remus told me about just killed you for what you did." Sirius's jaw dropped.
"How could you-"
"He does have a right hate you after what you did father. I thought I was annoying but you're the annoyance king itself!"
Alice stood up but still unable to hold a grin, "I'm off to pack my stuff."
"Do you need help?" Liliz asked standing as well only to be tackled by Sirius hugging her from behind like a father would do his daughter. Alice for once felt a bit sad.
"No thanks Liliz," she replied smiling weakly climbing the stairs.
Her cousin noticed her weakly smiled and smile encouraging at her, "You're always welcome little sis. Stop that father!"
A chore of Good night came from downstairs. Alice smiled; she sure has one small crazy family.
"ALICE WAKEUP!" She frowned sleepy as his cousin Liliz Black stepped inside the room, removing all the mess around the room and picking up the dirty clothes Alice took off yesterday. "ALICE!"
"10 more minute mom," she murmured, cuddling deeper inside the covers. A black dog jumped on top of her and started licking all her face. "Grr Uncle Sirius!" Alice exclaimed angrily at the black dog wagging his tail at her, now fully awake.
"It's 10:20 a.m. and the train leaves at 11 o'clock," Liliz yelled, "Get your half asleep ass to the shower and get dressed, NOW!" Liliz yelled again and the dog barked at her words.
"And you shut it!" Liliz said angrily at the dog who cowered at her pointing finger. " You're suppose to get breakfast fixed! Off! Downstairs now!"
