Don't worry! She is quite powerful, Harry is more powerful though, he just doesn't know it. She is a key part in helping Harry defeat Voldemort. And I'm planning on… opps too much info!
On to the story!
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Harry was a bit confused. He had escaped the Dursleys, gone to shop in Diagon Ally, and met a woman who claimed to be a Black. On top of that her name was Setsuna, not only was that name not on the Black family tree, her name was Setsuna!
His friend that he had wished to come back! Was this her? She did resemble her, her eyes held a mischievous glint, just like Sirius' eyes, but they also showed pain, a lot like his own he thought.
Right now they were eating lunch at the Leaky Cauldron, talking about one thing or another, both were constantly directing questions at each other and both were effectively dodging the questions asked, at the moment though they were in companiable silence. He was startled when she spoke,
"You know the house I lived under." Harry was confused by this. What was she talking about?
"Pardon?" he asked.
"I said, you know the house I lived under." This was getting freaky.
"I don't believe I do." He replied.
"You do. I lived under Number 3 Privet Dr."
"You what?" he stuttered. If she wasn't pulling his leg then this was the Setsuna he had wished for, his friend.
"I lived under Number 3 Privet Dr. But I'm getting tired of repeating myself, do you know who I am?"
"Setsuna! I've missed you. I've got so many things to tell you, well, I've told you most of the good stuff the rest is bad. Where have you been all these years? Why are you back? Have you been here long? Where are you staying?" he said all of this in a rush, afraid she was joking, getting his hopes up.
"I've missed you too Harry. I've also got a lot of things to tell you, I haven't told you anything really. To tell you the truth I've been on a few planets, I'm back because I need to learn how to use a wand, I just got here this morning, and I'm probably going to stay at Hogwarts." Harry was amazed this was so much to take in; he didn't even realize when she got up and walked out, paying for their food and leaving a note.
When he finally shook himself out of it he was actually a little mad at her for leaving, both then and now. But he also was sad that she was gone now. Why did she leave? Did she think he was mad? Well, he was kind of.
What had she said? Been on a few planets. Planets? She had been on other planets? Living at Hogwarts. He'd have to arrange to get there somehow and what better way to get there but the knight bus. When he thought about it he didn't blame her for leaving just now only when she left 6 years ago. Who wouldn't be scared of what you though if you had been gone for so long?
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Setsuna didn't know what had come over her. One moment she was talking the next she was telling Harry who she was. She really wish she hadn't, he was thinking so hard at the news of her being who she was she couldn't help but read it. She had read so much emotion in his mind that it shocked her and as she fought to get out of his mind she fled, having enough sense left to pay the bill and quickly write a note. It had read:
Harry,
I know you're probably mad, and you have every right to be. If only I could tell you everything. But, how am I supposed to tell you everything when I have nightmares about it. I can't tell you until I can tell myself. I don't know when that will be, please be patient. If I don't see you before you get to school, you'll see me there even if I have to break into the school to see you. Hopefully it won't come to that. I will see you.
Your friend,
Setsuna
She was walking towards Olivanders to get her wand when she passed two shops, the pet shop and the Quiditch shop. She made a mental note to go there after she got her wand.
She arrived at the shop to find it empty. She walked in and rang the bell on the counter. She heard a muffled sound and then some shuffling. After a few min. an old, but homey man walked around a corner. He was wearing a homey smile and his eyes held great knowledge and great warmth. She couldn't help but smile back.
"And who do we have here? Certainly not a Black? I thought I wouldn't ever see another one of those in my stores, and yet your aura tells me different" he said.
"You are correct in assuming that I am a Black. It is not widely known that there is another Black. I have not been in this world but for the first time today and I have come to get a wand." She replied warmly.
"You are quite old to be getting your first wand. I sense great power about you, here, try this wand." He said, pulling out a wand. As soon as she touched it she knew it was wrong and quickly put it down.
5 wands later she realized a pattern. He had sensed she was powerful and was trying powerful wands. She may be powerful but not in this type of magic.
"Sir, if I might say, you are trying to powerful a wand, I am week in this type of magic, the power you sense does not come of this world" she said the last words barely audible.
"I see, I would ask more but I wont. Try this one then." Handing her a different wand. This time when she took hold of it she knew it was the right one. Sparks that were purple flew out of her wand.
"Very good, you were right, your magic is very weak, although it is only a little below average." She nodded and paid, walking out of the store.
She did the rest of her shopping quickly and in deep thought then, with all of her purchases, she teleported to Hogwarts. When she arrived she took out her broom and flew. She really needed to think.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Minerva heard the alarms go off meaning someone was on the grounds that wasn't supposed to be and they had apparated! No one could do that!
She looked over at the portrait of Dumbledore in his old office, now hers. He was still sound asleep. Typical.
She went to the window where she immediately started looking for them. She saw a girl, who looked to be about 17 flying in the air aimlessly, she was quite good. It was almost as if the air was bending around her! She continued watching, questions still going through her mind until she flew to the ground. As she watched the girl get off her broom she realized she still didn't know if this girl was a threat or not and so she walked out of the office only to find the heads of houses there waiting.
She had forgotten they could here the alarms also but figured it was for the best to have backup if this girl was an enemy. She filled them in on what she knew, which was not much as they walked towards the front gates. As they opened them the girl was poised to pull the handle open and she saw the look of surprise that went across the girls face. Yes, she was quite young. And beautiful too.
"Would you mind telling us who you are and why you are trespassing?" she said at last.
"I am Setsuna. And I was coming to talk to you about enrolling into Hogwarts for my 7th year and if I could have a bit of tutoring since I don't know anything about it." Said the girl. Her posture seemed to stiffen and her chin jutted out defiantly while her eyes showed her unsurness and knowledge at the same time. Before she could answer, Vauhan, the new potions teacher and just as mean as Snape, did.
"Are you saying you have just found out you are magic? That is not possible, you would have gotten a letter from Hogwarts. Or can't you read also?" Vauhan's remark made her cringe on the inside but she kept a strict composure on the outside. The girl seemed nice enough.
"I have known that I had magic since I got my letter 6 or so years ago. I even replied that I would be going, but I was kidnapped at the train station. I could have escaped after about a year with these people but they taught me some very useful things and… something else held me up." Replied the girl.
This was interesting. She would have to converse with Dumbledore's portrait about this. She was startled as the girl spoke again. "Would you mind telling me who you are and where Albus Dumbledore is? I need to speak to him." Minerva was shocked. Didn't she know?
"Albus Dumbledore died at the end of last year. He is no longer Headmaster, I am." The girl looked shocked but soon composed herself.
"That is impossible. I can feel his aura. I would not be able to feel it if he were dead."
