Everyone rose late the next morning, Harry and his friends had gone straight upstairs after eating breakfast to help Mrs Weasley clear out another room. Sirius sat in the kitchen, a mug of coffee in his hands as he had only woken up half an hour before hand. The door to the kitchen banged open and a weary Sierra dragged herself into a chair opposite Sirius and yawned widely
"Tired?" Sirius asked, Sierra looked at him through the tangles in her hair and yawned again
"Coffee cup… now." She mumbled
"Would you like anything in the cup?" Sirius asked with a smirk. Sierra growled
"Don't be evil, Padfoot." She hissed. Sirius laughed and conjured up a coffee for her, which she took gratefully
"I could never be as evil as you." He told her. Sierra laughed, drinking heavily from her cup and then standing
"I suppose we'd better help tidy out this pig-sty?" she said simply before giving a wolfish grin "Race ya." She dodged around the chair, gave her brother a light push and dashed off, laughing. As she ran up the stairs, a large dog bounded past, causing her to shriek at it and follow it into one of the rooms, where the others were.
"That's a dirty trick." She gasped through her laughter "You cheated." The dog barked once before becoming Sirius again.
"Couldn't resist." He stated happily "Come on Harry, lets get started on this cupboard."

"Knight to E4." Harry commanded, watching his Knight move and take out Ron's perilous pawn. Ginny was watching Crookshanks chase Pig around the room, laughing each time the Kneazle/cat crashed into a wall, Fred and George sat across the table from Harry and Ron, heads together as they conversed quietly, probably over their joke shop merchandise and Hermione was reading a very thick book.
"Where's Sirius and Sierra?" Hermione asked eventually
"Bishop to D6. Sirius wanted to show Sierra Buckbeak. Crush him!" Harry answered between telling his Bishop to take out Ron's Rook.
There was the sound barking, make each person in the kitchen look up, two animals charged into the kitchen. One; the big black dog that was Sirius. The other a smaller, white and grey wolf. The wolf skidded to a stop two centimetres from Crookshanks, nose quivering as it stared at him, tongue lolling. It appeared to be grinning.
Sirius and the wolf both play fought for a minute, the children cheering as they did so before settling on the floor, panting.
"What's going on?" Tonks asked as she came in. Everyone looked away from the wolf and dog to gawp at her. Her hair was fairly short and spiked. A bright and vibrant yellow that could put a canary to shame, each spike ending with lime green.
"Well, now we're all staring at your hair." Sierra said. She was sitting on the floor where the wolf had been lying. Sirius, back in human form, was leaning against the counter next to her.
"Cheek." Tonks snapped, though she was grinning
"Whatever you say Nymphado- OW!" her teasing ended with a yell as Tonks tackled her
"You evil child!" Sierra screeched through her laughter, as they fought "Don't make me kill you!"
"Sierra. Act your age." Sirius laughed. The two women stopped fighting and Sierra whipped her head round to face her twin and poked her tongue out at him.
"Meanie!" she hissed, "You make such a good dog Si."
"Almost as good as you make a wolf, you old bat."
"Ugly."
"Bird brain."
"I'm a wolf, dipstick."
"Moron."
"Shut up Padfoot."
"Same to you, Snuffles."
"Wait." Harry said, stopping the childish bickering "You're Snuffles?"
"Aye." Sierra replied, gnawing on her thumb knuckles "Why?"
"I stole name again sis, whilst I was running."
"Name stealing pooch."
"Childish girly-girl."
"That's it dog-boy. You can call me anything but a girly-girl!" she lunged at her brother, who sped from the kitchen. Sierra ran after him, pausing at the door for a moment
"Excuse me for a minute." She told the amused group "I've just got to kill my brother." She sped from the room, the group in the kitchen laughing as screams of:
"Get back here you name stealing poodle!" rang around the house
"Are they always like this?" Harry asked Tonks
"Actually, they're worse." She replied "Normally they're a lot more abusive towards each other, probably not doing so because Molly's here. Its there way of showing they're on good terms. If they're annoyed at one another, they act all… nice." She shuddered "Not what you expect from them, its very worrying."
