A/N: Thanks for replaying all you guys who did! You're so nice and I owe you an apology for the way it was set out, I hope you can read this new bit better and if not, tell me and I'll change it! And I'm trying to avoid Shadow being a Mary-Sue because she's definatly not perfect. I also don't own any of the characters or the story except 'Shadow Black' and some characters who will be coming in the future.
The Wolf of the Shadow
"Wait!" Hermione yelled. She had been watching this Shadow Black with cat like eyes. Hermione wanted to keep an eye on her, she didn't trust her and she would tell it was hurting Harry. Hurting him because Sirius had always said he was the last Black, and if anyone hurt her friends, they would have to deal with her.
Of course, Shadow hadn't realised she had hurt Harry. Defiantly not, not with the words of her father still ringing in her ear. All Ms Black ever wanted was to stay in the shadows…hence the name, Shadow. As she turned around, her thick, luxurious black hair covered her face yet again and she looked directly at Hermione. Hermione was startled; Shadow's piercing blue eyes were still clearly visible even from behind the mass of hair.
"Well. Err…" Hermione stumbled, "Do you want someone to show you the way to the common room?"
"No, thank you." Shadow said, "I know my way around already. I know everything about this castle, the classrooms, the towers, the secret passages even the paintings." She walked through the doors and when the doors closed all the Gryffindor's erupted again.
"Harry, are you ok?" Ron asked his friend as he sat down again. Harry stared at his feet again, eyes wide open with shock.
"Look, Harry, if she bothers you so much, stay away from her. All of us will." Hermione added and looked around at her fellow for Gryffindor's for support. They nodded and muttered responses of 'yeah' and 'Of course'…except Fred and George. Hermione glared at them and they, with looks of devastation, nodded.
"Thanks guys…" Harry said with a sigh of relief. "I'm going to go to bed." He got up and walked out the hall, he was about to go up the stairs when he heard voices.
"Shadow, calm down." The strong Scottish voice of Professor McGonagall. She walked to the each of the stair case, back to Harry, and paced back down again
"No, this was a mistake, I'll never be accepted, they hate me, and I'm leaving." Came the voice of Shadow, now in a harsh tone. All of a sudden, a black wolf ran down the stairs and out of the school, right past Harry.
"ALBUS! We can't let her leave! I know she has a wider range of magic skills than that of her year,but there are stronger powers than her own around at the moment We have to do something!" Professor McGonagall's voice shrilled.
"She won't leave the grounds. It is against my wishes and she knows she will be foolish to do so." Dumbledore's voice said, calmly.
"I just hope you're right, Albus, I just hope you're right." Said McGonagall in a worried voice. With that both the teachers disappeared.
"Harry, mate, are you ok?"
Harry turned around; Ron and Hermione were there. Ron put a comforting hand on Harry's shoulder and Hermione looked slightly worried. Harry stared at them for a moment.
"I-I'm fine, let's go," Harry whispered.
