They all wanted to stay up and see if they could get any more information about the girl, but exhaustion eventually hit everyone and so with staggering steps, they all went to their rooms.

"Harry get up," said Ron as he chucked a pillow at him, "She might be up and eating breakfast downstairs right now."

"Ron think about it," Harry yawned, "You saw what type of condition she was in last night. If anything I think she might be sleeping."

"Well then why don't we go down anyway and see if we can get any information from the others."

When Ron opened their door, the smell of bacon and eggs hit them, and their stomachs growled. They both raced down the steps. Hermione and Ginny were already seated at the dinning room table with half their breakfast already eaten.

"Where's Fred and George?" asked Harry.

"They went to work this morning. Mom and Dad really didn't want them too but of course you know how they get," answered Ginny.

"Have you guys read the newspaper yet?" asked Hermione.

Harry and Ron looked at her with their mouths full. "Oh right you guys only just got up, anyways they talk about the raid on the front page," said Hermione grapping the newspaper that was lying beside her, "Since I'm finish, I'll go ahead and read part of it to you:

The dreaded Dark Mark flew high in the sky last night over am estate in Belfast. One woman was found dead inside the house and was obviously killed by the horrid Avada Kedavra curse. Another girl was found outside on the estate alive. Her identity has not yet been confirmed and sources tell us that her ware bouts are unknown at this time.

"That's the basic sum of it," said Hermione.

"Why don't they want to give out her name?" asked Ron.

"Oh we are the dumb one today aren't we Ron? If they have her name then they have her ware about. They don't want the Death Eaters to find her. It's for her own protection," said Harry.

"They really had no need to do that though. I'm perfectly capable of defending myself," said a voice from the entrance to the dinning room.

Everyone turned to where the new girl was standing. She had short, chestnut brown hair and her blue eyes stood out in the darkness. When she stepped into the light they could see that she was dressed in a simple pair of blue jeans and plain orange t-shirt.

She walked over to the table and took the empty seat beside Harry. Her left arm was wrapped in gauze at the top and the scratches that had been on her face the night before were no longer there. Mrs. Weasly did a fine job of cleaning her up.

"We were all wonder," Ginny began, "What is your name?"

"Oh sorry. I should have told you it earlier. I'm Leona Riddle."

"Riddle?" asked Harry.

"Yeah. It's a common name. I for one hate it." Leona replied.

"Umm Leona, was that your mother in the um..." Ron was a little worried to ask the question.

"It's ok I know what you mean. Yes, she was the one that was killed last night." Leona looked away for a second to compose herself then looked back at everyone at the table.

"Why were they after you?" asked Harry.

Leona paused looking for the right answer, "Because my mother and I had no wish to go along the same path my father took. See my dad is really high up on the Dark Side, and my mother and I didn't want that type of thing in our lives. So last night when my father came asking where I was my mother refused to let him take me. He ended up killing her right in front of me," Leona looked as if she was reliving that moment in her mind. Her eyes were glassy and weren't focused on anything particular.
