Disclaimer:Must I say I don't own any of this. The only characters in this story I own is Rose Raven, and a few back ground people. Sarah and Eve Winters belong to a dear friend of mine along with there pasts. Harry Potter and all related charaters belong to JKR. and Gandalf and Snik belong to JRR Tolikein, and I've got not idea who the X-men characters belong to but sure as hell not me.
A/N: I truly hope you are all enjoying this. I know I'm enjoying writing it and reading your reviews. Though those are few. I know my chapters aren't very long but they'll get longer later on. I've got a single goal with this story so far and that's to finish before July 16th, which is the day Half Blood Prince comes out.

Starting Things Off With a Bang
Harry
stood between Sarah and Remus. At least 20 eyes on him. These people
were strange looking but he tried not to stare at any of them. There
were the normal murrmurs. But how these people knew his father was
beyond him. His intial oppion was they were all freaks but he quickly
remeber how his scar had vexed him.
"LE that is with out a
doubt Jamie's boy. Look at the hair." a huge man said. He wasn't
huge like Hagrid but huge still compared with the normal man. Sarah
smirked batting her eye lashes at the man.
"Would I ever lie
to you?" she asked him.
"You've lied to us several
times. LE why should we even belive you?"
"Because
Storm, look at this face. You looked at Jamie just as many times as I
did is this not his boy?"
"He could be his twin. Not
those eyes though. Those are Red's." Logan said with a
smirk.
"Where ist Sirius?" Kurt asked. Harry chewed his
bottom lip. It might not be obvious why his parents knew theses
people but it was obvious that these people knew and cared about his
parents.
"Uhh...Guys back in June, there was a emegency at
the Ministry."
"Yeah, I saw it in the paper. What about
it?" asked Scott.
"Where is Sirius?"
"Sirius
Black fell that night."
"Fell what does that mean?"
Logan asked.
"He died." Remus blurted out.
The next
several minutes were spent in total confusion. A few of the women
were suddenly huddled around Sarah fussing over every little thing
while Sarah tried to convice them she was fine. Logan kept saying he
was sorry. For what Harry had no idea. The men sat still in shock not
sure what to say, well except Logan who had no trouble mubbling. Once
everyone was seated again and Remus and Harry had explained what had
happened ten times,everthing fell silent.
"Okay we should of
told you. But we were told under no circumstances to contact
you."
"When have rules acutally mattered to you
two?"
"Rules have always mattered. With out them what
would we have broken?" Sarah asked.
"Is this really the
time for jokes? I mean one of our friends is dead."
"Thank
you Jean. We needed a refreasher." Remus spat.
"I'm
sorry if you've had time to deal with this but we haven't would you
let us understand what happened. This is a big deal. Voldomort has
been silent only a few little attacks on the boy for 14 years then
all of a sudden he comes and kills a valuable order memeber? This
doesn't add up?"Jean said trying to grasp everything at
once.
"Okay so he fell through the viel. What is that?"
Storm asked.
"Muggles have the eletric chair or the injection
or whatever right? Well, not to be out done we came up with a viel to
dispose of our criminals. Its garrenteed death everytime. However
there are certin things about it. Like if you have witnessed a death
you hear the voices of the dead calling you to them. Upside there's
no body to deal with afterwards." Sarah said sounding like
Hermione.
"That is sick."Scott said.
"Yeah well
it works. Then there richer ones buy their way out of the excution.
Sirius was one of those the first time."
"They were
going to kill him?" Harry asked stunned.
"Yes Harry, he
was accused of having killed 13 muggles, a wizard, and held
responsible for Lilly and James Potter's deaths." Jean explained
gently. That was it for Harry he didn't join in the conversation
again. Something about these people was unsettling. They didn't just
bicker like sibblings, they were all bitter. Even Remus was at the
end of his rope while this conversation was taking place.
Finally
getting tired of the conversation he retreated from the room in
search on anyone sane. He was unfortanate enough to literally bump
into Snape on his way out of the room.
"Watch where your
going Potter."
"Sorry sir."
"Where's
Sarah?"
"In there." he pointed to the door behind
him."Uhh sir?"
"What Potter?"
"Never
mind." Harry said rethinking what he was about to say. Harry
left then up to Ron and Hermione who were talking with Bill about
Egptian gods.
Sarah slid down to
the ground her back against the wall. She didn't know which one had
hit her. All she was aware of was Molly screaming in the door way and
Severus over her. He felt her arm which lay limp at her side. She
winced trying to pull away.
"Shhh Shhh Sarah, hold still."
he said picking her up. Severus carried her bridle style and sat her
down on the stairs. He drew his wand and muttered something. She
didn't know what happened. The next thing she knew she was on her bed
with Logan at her side.
"What happened?" she asked
trying to sit up. He pushed her back down in the bed.
"Snivellus
says you took a pretty beating. I never thought I'd see him do
anything to help you."
"He knows better than to leave me
lay." she tried to laugh but her head was throbbing.
"Hush
now Babe. I'll be right back I told them when you woke up I'd get
them."
"Them?" she asked sitting up and feeling her
arm out.
"Yeah, the whole group."
"Logan, I've
not woken up yet."
"Okay then. What do you need Babe?"
he asked sitting back down in the chair next to her bed.
"Just
sit here please."
"You want to talk, Love?"
"Don't
stop the names. No ones called me any of them since he died."
"You
really don't want me to stop?" he asked shocked.
"No. Do
you know what its like? Living with them I mean? They all know what
happened. They all hung their heads and walked around like whipped
pups for a few days. That was it. No more talk. No more 'remeber
when..' stories. Remus tries to act like nothing happened. Then
There's Harry."
"Dolly, whats wrong with Harry?"
Logan asked slidding into the bed next to her he put his arm around
her and wipped away the tears that slid down her
cheeks.
"Nothing....Everything...I don't know. He wants....he
needs to know about his parents. He needs to know about everything
that went down back then." she said trying her best not to cry
full out.
"Sarah, you have his enitre life to tell him all
that stuff."
"No I don't. Think about it Logan. Two more
years of his schooling. Every year close to summer holiday Voldomort
attacks. How many more times will he make it out alive? Lilly and
James only made it 3 times. They were very powerful. He's just a kid.
He's a baby."
"He is 16. How old were you when Sirius
gave you that gold band and promised you his name?" Sarah
smirked.
"Two months older than Harry is right now."
"Is
he a baby?"
"He's my baby. I promised to keep him safe.
I promised him that nothing would ever get between us. Now look he
was put in Azkaban and now he's dead." she started crying
complete rivers. Logan pulled her closer to him and rocked her back
to sleep. Once she was sleeping he snuck out of the room and down
stairs..
