Lacy here. Alright, so we've reached some actual sibling fighting with Harry and Heidi. What's bringing it on? Why Quidditch of course! What else would the Potter siblings fight over? *pauses* Nevermind. So, that's going to be the main thing in this chapter and...have fun!

Disclaimer: I own Heidi.

"I'm just saying, I'm your brother. You should support me."

Heidi rolled her eyes at Harry as they walked through the halls. "And Ravenclaw is my house. Don't you think they deserve my support too?"

"When have you ever supported them?" Ron asked with a snort.

Heidi glared at him. "Last I checked Ron, this was a conversation between Harry and I. Butt out."

"Heidi and I have gone to every Ravenclaw game since we became students, Harry," Luna said. "it's not like this would be a first time thing."

"You know Luna and I support you, Harry." Heidi said. "But for this game, we're gonna be cheering on our house. I'm sorry."

Not letting her brother respond, Heidi and Luna walked ahead of them and out of sight.

~'~'~'~'~'~'~'~'~

Heidi walked into the Marauder's Quarters and heard Sirius sigh.

"Harry, I am not forcing your sister to root for Gryffindor,"

Heidi stared at his brother in disbelief. "For the love of Merlin, really? You can't go one game without me on your side? You lack that much confidence in yourself?"

Harry glared at Heidi. "It's not a lack of confidence. It's called loyalty."

Heidi returned the glare. "Oh don't even start that. I have lost count of the number of times you've taken Ron's side when he and I start fighting. You want to talk loyalty, you might wanna start there."

"It's not my fault-"

"Enough," Sirius stood. "both of you. Harry, you have to accept Heidi isn't always going to be cheering you for during Quidditch. She is in a different house. And Heidi," he sighed. "for Merlin's sake, try and get along with Ron, please."

"Sure," Heidi said. "once he stops being an arse."

Sirius watched his goddaughter storm out and felt a headache coming on. Some days he wondered how Remus dealt with her. He looked at Harry.

"Leave your sister alone," he said. "and just focus on your match."

~'~'~'~'~'~'~'~'~

Heidi found it difficult to focus during the match. She was furious with Harry and because of that, she didn't want to root for either side.

"Come on Heidi," Luna poked her arm. "I know you're mad at Harry but you have to try and enjoy the game."

Heidi smiled at her best friend. "Nothing really dampens your spirits, does it?"

Luna shrugged. "Not so much." she poked Heidi again. "Now come on, Cho just decided to follow Harry instead of looking for the Snitch herself."

Heidi cocked a brow at the field. "Oh that'll go over well. Harry hates being marked."

Luna grinned, proud of herself. "See? Now you're getting into it."

Heidi laughed and refocused on the match.

~'~'~'~'~'~'~'~'~

Luna and Ginny struggled against Heidi's strength as they held her back once the match was finished. Draco and his goons decided to dress up as dementors to throw Harry off his game. The joke was on them though as Harry had been able to cast a Patronus charm to defend himself. The four Slytherins were now attempting to remove themselves from their robes as McGonagall, Snape and Sirius yelled at them for their stupidity and cowardly act of sabotage.

"Ruddy arses!" Heidi growled as she fought against her friends.

"Ladybug," Remus walked over and Luna and Ginny nearly sobbed in relief. Heidi was a lot to handle when she was angry. "Calm down,"

Heidi huffed at her uncle. "They had better get serious punishment for that."

Remus watched Heidi for a moment before motioning Luna and Ginny away. He led Heidi away from the Pitch.

"They scared you, didn't they?" Remus asked once they were far enough away.

Heidi crossed her arms. "I can barely fight one off. If they'd been real, I would have fainted again and,"

Remus looked out at the lake as Heidi stopped. "You would have heard your mum again."

Heidi nodded. "I never want to hear that again, Uncle Moony. Every time I hear it, it takes longer and longer to forget it. I'm afraid I'm always going to remember it." she looked up at Remus. "I don't want that to be the only memory I have of her."

Remus sighed and hugged Heidi. Once again in Heidi's short life, Remus wished more then anything that he could make things easier for her. And for Harry. To be able to go back in time and make their past go away.

"We'll figure something out, Bug," Remus whispered. "I promise."

'BANG' 'BANG' 'BANG' 'BANG' 'BANG' 'BANG'

Heidi and Luna shot up in their beds, along with the others three girls in their dorm. They exchanged looks as the banging continued.

"Everyone stay in your beds!" Penelope's voice rang clear through the tower. "Do not come out unless one of the seventh years comes for you!"

Heidi, Luna and their dorm mates gathered by their door but did as Penelope said. They didn't leave but they did listen.

"Who's there?" Penelope shouted at the door.

'BANG' 'BANG' 'BANG' 'BANG' 'BANG' 'BANG'

"Someone use the fire place to call Professor Flitwick!" Penelope ordered.

It was a few minutes before Flitwick's voice was heard.

"Everyone back to their dorms!" he called out. "Pettigrew was attempting to break in. Bellatrix managed to break into Gryffindor."

Heidi screwed what she was told and darted from her dorm.

"Is Harry okay, Professor?" she asked once she reached the common room.

Flitwick looked at her. "He's fine, Miss Potter. Your aunt, Professor Lupin and Auror Shacklebolt are going to spend the rest of the night guarding the common room while Auror Moody and Professor Black take Gryffindor. Now please, go back to bed."

Heidi shook her head. "If it's okay, I'd like to stay down here until they come."

Flitwick nodded his understanding. "Alright, you may. But right back to bed after."

Heidi smiled. "Yes Professor."

Flitwick took his leave while Penelope sent the other seventh years up to make sure the others were going back to bed. She herself stayed with Heidi.

"Don't worry Heidi," Penelope said. "it'll be okay."

Heidi nodded as she sat on the couch. "I know. It's just, this is the second time at least Bellatrix has gotten in here. It doesn't make any sense how they're sneaking in."

"I'm sure the Headmaster will figure it out." Penelope said, her tone firm and sure. "After all, I'm sure he's not happy they've snuck past him."

"You're right about that, Miss Clearwater." Remus said as he walked in with Tonks and Kingsley. "You can go back to bed."

Penelope nodded. "Yes Professor." she gave Heidi a hug before heading back up to the dorms.

Heidi clung to her aunt and uncle, hating that Bellatrix and Pettigrew scared her so much.

"Are they gone?" Heidi asked.

Tonks nodded. "From what we can tell, they are. Just like before."

"More Aurors are being sent in to help guard inside the school," Kingsley added. "And Mad-Eye is posting two Aurors outside Ravenclaw and Gryffindor. We now know for certain they're after you and your brother."

Heidi paled while Remus and Tonks glared at the other Auror.

"Kingsley, why don't you guard outside tonight." Tonks more demanded then suggested.

Kingsley saw Heidi face and cursed his words. Instead of trying to fix it, which wouldn't help, he nodded and did as Tonks said.

"We are not going to let them get to you, Ladybug." Remus said. "They will not lay wand or finger on you or your brother. I promise."

Heidi tried to relax as she listened to her uncle's words but she couldn't shake the feeling that this was far from over.

Yeah, fail on Kingsley and I hate to have Remus break promises but that one is going to be shattered. *pauses* Just remember, anything I do here, you'll think is rainbows and butterflies by the time we finish book seven. *pauses again* Yeah Lace, that'll make 'em keep reading. Great job! *shakes head* Let me know what you think, flame policy stands and thanks for reading.
