Two women and a little girl sat in a small, dingy living room in a bad part of a small town.

"Where's she going?" A redheaded woman asked, her green eyes filled with tears. Her pale skin was covered in dark freckles and she was wearing a knee length green dress. She looked to be in her late twenties and stood at a blacked out window.

A little girl sat on the ripped up, stained white couch next to a blond woman, both were wearing blue shorts and orange tops that looked home made.

Alissa smiled at her seven-year-old daughter. Her blond curls matched her mothers, even the just over shoulder length of it was the same, the big difference was Eliza's brown eyes and Alissa's blue eyes. "Listen honey, your little sister has to go away for a little while, Mommy wants you to go give her a kiss and tell her you love her. Surin might be gone for a while and you may not get to see her." She was starting to feel her thirty-five years and needed the little girl to be out of the room for a while.

The little girl nodded and ran out of the sparsely decorated living room that only contained a couch and a small, black and white t.v. She only had to go just outside the doorway to a small baby bouncer where a baby of about a year sat quietly. The girl sat down to talk to the dark-haired baby.

The older woman then turned to the woman at the window. "I'm going to give Surin to My friend Mary to care for. Hopefully it won't be for long but I need to find us somewhere more secret to live. He must not know about her, I know I'm being hypocritical but he's a monster… I don't know what I saw in him in the first place… besides what kind of a life could she live here? It's already terrible for Eliza and she's only seven… no I think this is best for all of us."

"Alissa have you ever thought that this might change him? And besides what happens if Eliza tells everyone about her little sister and about him? She knows who he is! And besides, Mary is a muggle… and what if she's married and has her own children? They'll throw her out and then she'd be worse off then ever!" The other woman said raising her voice. She was starting to get a bit crazy, thinking about the poor baby growing up on her own without her family near by.

"Shhh… Surin will be safe there; he'll never find her. He doesn't even know about her… he won't think anything of my disappearance. And as soon as I know Surin is safe I'm going to make it so Eliza doesn't remember Surin, it'll keep both girls safe. Besides Syranthail she'll be fine."

"Momma?" Another little girl walked into the room, she was wearing a pink dress that puffed out and complimented her straight brown hair, she had large green eyes and looked about three. "Why is Auntie Alissa sad?"

"Aunt Alissa is sad because Surin needs to go away love." The woman replied, trying not to cry. "And she might not get to see her for a long, long time."

"Will she come back?" The girl asked, she opened her eyes really wide and stared at her mother. She knew that sometimes when people went away they didn't come back and then no one wanted to talk about that person anymore.

"Well Arianna if you keep Surin a secret and don't tell anyone, not even Eliza, then she might be able to."

They stayed silent for a while until Syranthail turned to her daughter.

"Arianna I think it's time for you and Eliza to go to bed, you two can have a sleepover." She told her daughter, who rushed to tell her cousin. The two women sat, silently trying not to cry about how quickly the child was already seeming to forget what had just happened.

"I can't believe you're giving her up Alissa, I know I would never ever be able to give Arianna up… you be extra careful giving her to Mary, you hear me? If he catches you… well I don't want to know what would happen…" Syranthail told her, hugging the other woman as she stood up to make sure the girls were almost ready to go.

The women heard both little girls saying goodbye to Surin, neither realizing that by morning it would be as if the baby had never been apart of their lives. Neither woman wanted to have to take the memories away, but knowing that it was for best and for the safety of both, it was a lot harder for a child to keep quiet about a secret.

"Can you give this to her? So she'll know that we love her?" Arianna asked, handing her aunt a stuffed toy in the shape of a blackbird, it looked brand new. "I saved up all of my change, and when Eliza found change in the street she saved it too. It's from both of us."

"Alright girls let's go." The woman grabbed both girls' hands and pulled them lightly along and out of the tiny apartment. She didn't want to stay in the den of sadness that filled it and its tenants any longer, nor did she want either of the girls to pick up on it either.

Alissa felt herself cracking, even if she told herself that it was the right thing to do for the baby she still couldn't stand the pain. She refused to cry, it wouldn't do her any good anyway. She walked over to the jumper, which had a perfect view of the living room and picked up the baby. "I'm sorry sweetie… I love you more then anything, but I just can't have you in harm's way… you're father is an evil man and I don't want him to ever know about you." She sighed again and quickly put the baby in a woven hay basket along with the blackbird. She picked up the basket and hurried out of the apartment, before she lost her nerve and kept the baby.

All of the students who had been in the dungeons had been taken swiftly to the hospital wing, no one knew what Neville had done wrong or what the effects of the wrong potion had been. All of the students who had been touched by any amount of it had been basically knocked out with their eyes however they had been at that moment. Only three students had gotten covered in it and the rest were mostly small spots of it. No one knew even what breathing in the fumes of the potion would do.

"Can we leave yet? I'm tired of being stuck with these losers." A Slytherin yelled, gesturing at the Gryffindors.

"You will all try to get a long for however long it takes for the ministry of magic to find out the effects of this got it? And I don't want to hear any more complaints out of any of you. The next person who complains about being in here loses ten points for their house." Madame Pomphrey said as they all groaned.

Any students who were up and awake were on one side of the room or the other depending on house, the Slytherins on one side, the Gryffindors on the other. Only two people seemed willing to get past this division of persons – Hermione and Draco stood at Surin's bedside, watching her for any sign of her waking up.

As she hurried along she wanted less and less to face the friend who had never thought of her badly. Finally she simply used her last few dollars to buy some paper and a pen and wrote a note. The note was to the woman and the husband that she hadn't told anyone else about; she knew that if Syranthail had known about the man she would've refused to allow the baby to go there right off.

Dear Mary and Blake:

This is my only chance to save my baby girl from her father. He's a maniac and that's all you need to know.

Her name is Surin; she is only Eliza's half sister.


She's a year old now, please try to keep her for as long as possible. I will be coming back for her as soon as I can. She is not a pureblood but her father is very influential, I will try to keep everyone off of her trail and if anyone asks please say she's yours.

Her name is not on the Hogwarts list or any other list because I have erased her from the face of the earth as far as anyone knows to keep her father from knowing she's alive. There is a lot of money in a bank account for her and for your expenses.

Also there's a toy in the basket with her. It's from her cousin and sister, I want her to have it with her at all times. If you keep her safe until the eve of her eighteenth birthday and I still haven't come back for her then I want you to tell her everything and tell her how sorry I am. She will not remember any of us more then likely and if not you can get pictures from the vault in the muggle bank that I have left in her name.

The only ones who know she's alive are you, my sister, and myself.

Thank you with all my heart

Alissa Blackstone

She sighed, wiping her eyes gently. This was not only the easiest way to do it but the safest, this way the baby wouldn't be denied right away. She ran through the streets, using back alleys when ever possible. Finally she found herself at the mansion where she knew her friend had last lived, and hoped that her friend still lived there. If she didn't then she'd just have to trust her baby in the hand of strangers because she was swiftly running out of time to find a safe home. There was nothing else she could do for either of her children and for all she knew this might end up being the only thing that kept Surin safe from the horrors of the life that both she and her older child had lived through.

She quickly knocked then dashed around the corner where she couldn't be seen but could see everything. She sat and watched until the baby had been taken inside, seeing the little girl's eyes following her as the door shut. She had seen the man, Mary's husband grab the basket, and then knew that her little girl would be safe.

As the door shut Surin's new life was began.
