We were on the outskirts of the forest, "Ouch!", I said as I got up from the ground.
"Are you OK, Pup?", Sirius asked, concern and humor in his grey-blue eyes.
I nodded and got up from the cold ground, ignoring the pain in my bum.
As I began walking something pushed me back again, but this time I didn`t trip.
"Something is pushing me back!", I yelped as I tried a third time.
"Huh? What do you mean pushing you back, I don`t see anything?!", Padfoot asked confused.
"I can`t go out of the forest!", I said dramaticly.
"Huh",
I begin to think my God/Dog-father isn`t the smartest, "Somehow I can`t get out of the forest!", I facepalmed.
"Like an invisible barrier", Padfoot concluded with a frown. I nodded as he began to pace.
"I belive that Dumbledor, the headmaster at hogwarts and suposed leader of the light, has made a barrier around Privet Drive for your own `protection`", He said after a while.
"Maybe you could carry me over? I`ve been far longer away from Privet Drive than this, but that was always with the Dursleys and we always drove a car. I have never had a problem before... But then again, maybe I can only leave in a car?", I rambled.
"Anythings worth a shot!", Padfoot said and got down on his knees, "Jump up on my back".
"Are you sure you can carry me, not to be rude but you don`t look like you could handle the weight", I said.
"Of course I can carry you!", he said indignant, "You can`t weight more than a few pounds!"
I turned red of anger and humiliation, but climbed onto his back nevertheless.
...
I and Padfoot was outwards The Leaky Cauldron.
Padfoot was in his dog form and had been since we came to London saying that if anyone saw him he would go back to prison or possibly killed, something neither of us wanted.
He had been leading the way and now was looking intently at the old pub before trudging towards a small alley where he turned back into a human.
"You saw that pub? The Leaky Cauldron? Thats the entrance to Diagon Alley. You go into there with me in my dog-form"-
"We have to get a name to your dog-form", I interjected.
"Huh?",
"If someone ask what my dog is named I can`t just say that you is Sirius, a convicted massmurderer who is supposedly out to kill me", I said matter of factly.
"...",
"What about Fluffy?", I asked him, "A cute name to a big, scary mutt?", I said jokingly.
Padfoot snorted and gave me an indignant look.
"Okay, Okay... Not Fluffy as you so politly rejected... Snuffles?", I asked.
Sitius put on a thinking expression befvore nodding his head once.
"I take that as a yes", I said, "What are we going to do after getting into Diagon Alley?".
"Just follow me and cover your scar and look down on the ground, we don`t need the attention of the girl-who-lived", Sirius said. He had told me about my celebrity status, I was not amused, to say the least.
I smiled and nodded my head, concentrating on changing my haircolor to blonde, turning my eyes blue, grew at least 2 inchs and get a tan complexion. I looked several years older and Dudleys clothes was only 2,5 times begger than me now. Padfoot`s eyes grew as he stared at me.
"YOU`RE A BLOODY METAMORPHMAGUS!", he shouted pointing an acusing finger at me.
"A what? And can you pleas turn down your voice?", I asked him sweetly, looking around me before turning to him again.
"Oh, sorry!", Sirius whispered back, "A metamorphmagus is a witch or wizard who can change their appearance at will. I didn`t know you was one! Why didn`t you tell me? Think that, James and Lily`s firstborn - a metamorphmagus! James would be elated! Think about all the prank possibilities! OH! It`s the perfect prank, just"-
"PADFOOT, we need to go before someone sees you!", I whisper yelled at him.
He looked at me like I was some great prank supply before turning back to Snuffles and going to the Leaking Cauldron, me following.
The pub was shabby, more so inside than outside and it smelled funnily. Lots of old Witches, Wizards and other... things, stared at me, and if not staring at me, staring at Padfo-Snuffles with wide eyes.
A man came towards me, glaring wearily at Snuffles.
"What can I do for you, Ms...", "Denise, sir!, "OK, Ms. Denise, so you are a pureblood? Of course you are, all the Denises are purebloods. Well, what do you want?", He asked smiling down at me, while all the time glancing towards Pa-Snuffles.
"Erm, could you get me to Diagon Alley, Mr...", "Just Tom", "Just Tom, I don`t know how?".
"Of course, it`s just this way, are you one of the australian Denises, I heard they were coming to England on a visit?", he asked while opening a door.
"Yeah", I said glad for the backstory.
He tapped two of the stones ond the brick wall and said:
"Remember this: from the trash can, three up and two across",
I smiled my thanks and walked into the alley, wishing I had eight more eyes... There were shops selling robes, shops selling telescopes and strange silver instruments I had never seen or heard of before, windows stacked with barrels of bat spleens and eels' eyes, tottering piles of spell books, quills, and rolls of parchment, potion bottles, globes of the moon... it was amazing.
I stared wide-eyed at all the shops and pepole, pretending that I did not notice all the weird stares directed at me, or just staring right back.
Padfoot stopped in front of a big building made of marble.
There were two funny-looking pepole with weird uniforms and swords standin before the door, looking grave.
"Hello!", I said happily to them while following Padfoot inside.
There were small, funny pepole everywhere!
All of them with ties and suits! They were old writing with annoyed looks on their faces.
I frowned a little at a woman with white-blonde hair who was highly inpolite with one of the small guys.
"How can I help you Ms...", "Potter, sir!", "You don`t look like a Potter", he retorted with a sneer, "GRIPHOOK, Go get the Potter accounts manager!", he said to a funny guy on the other side of the room, who soon ran away, probaly finding the manager.
I looked down at Padfoo-Snuffles, who just shook his head.
"Hello, Ms. Potter", a little funny guy said with a creepy fake smile on his face, "Would you please follow me?".
I nodded and we (me and Pad-Snuffles) followed him through what looked like a maze, before stopping at a door with a nameplate in the middle with the name, "Sharptooth", on it.
I followed him inside and just as he closed the door Snuffles turned into Padfoot.
"WHAT THE BLOODY HELL ARE YOU DOING?", I screamed at him. I was going to scream a little more, but was confused by the grin on both Paddys and Sharptooths face.
"I see you`re out of prison, Sirius", Sharptooth muttered, a grin plastered on his face.
"You didn`t think those dementors could keep me from my goddaugher, huh?", Sirius said as he slung his arm over my shoulder, hugging me against him.
"You are sure that this is James and Lilys daugher? She dosn`t look like them",
"She changed her apperance, wouldn`t want anybody to recognize her...", Sirius Explained.
I took that as my cue, and changed back to myself.
The midget dude looked mildly surprised and muttered, "Metamorphmagus".
"I supose you would want to see your parents will, claim your Heritage and check your assets", Mr. Sharpie asked me, before turning towards Sirius, "And you would want to take the Black Lordship, Sirius?",
Padfoot nodded.
"Could I pleas get seven drops of blood each?",
"Paddy... Padfoot?... SIRIUS!", I shouted.
"Huh?", he shaked his head before screaming: "YOUR A FREAKING SLYTHERIN!",
"And a Gryffindor, Hufflepuff, Ravenclaw, Mare, Pendragon, Zo"- Sharptooth began.
"But a Slytherin!?", Sirius whined, "How can she even be all that? And she defintly isn`t a pureblood! Lily was a muggleborn! Something has to be wrong!",
"Blood-magic is never wrong", Sharpie said calmly as Paddy sank down in a chair, letting the parchment in his hand drop down on the floor.
I picked it up and began to read:
Jamille Lily Potter (Pureblood)
Daugher of Lily Potter (nee Evans, Pureblood) and James Potter (Pureblood)

"So my mum wasn`t a muggleborn?" I asked confused, "Hey then the dursleys and I aren`t related and when Padfoot is declared innocent nobody can send me back to them!", I calculated. Paddy brightened considerabley at that and even made a little happy dance.
Sharptooth ignored Sirius and asked if I wanted to claim myself heir to all the houses.
"And the Black family heir, as she is the goddaugher of the soon-to-be lord Black", Padfoot said, "And her grandmother Dorea was a Black!", he stated.
I nodded with a smal grin and signed the papers Sharpie gave me.
"Wait here while I get all the heir-rings or, for some cases, other accesories. You can wait here until then", Sharptooth gave a little smirk, "I think it will take some time", and he was gone.
I turned towards Padfoot and asked, "Can you tell me stories about my parents?",
He smiled and his eyes lit up as thought christmas had come early and began telling me about the time my dad`s days at Hogwarts, the marauders, beginning with the tale of how they all met at the train to school.
