I CHANGED THE TIME OF THE STORY ADDY IS NOT TURNING 13 BUT 14 THE STORY IS NOW SET IN THE 4TH BOOK. THANKS(:

Harry's POV:

I felt the familiar tug behind my bellybutton as Dumbledore grabbed onto my arm and apparated to the restaurant my half-sister, I still couldn't believe I had a half-sister, was waiting unknowingly. The second the scenery changed and I felt solid ground beneath my feat, I scanned the table for her. I heard the second pop when my eyes landed on her. "bloody hell" whispered Ron when he caught site of her "she looks just like you, the only difference is the eyes" he said shock etched all over his face. "no need to stare like an imbecile" she hissed "and watch your language" "thank you Mrs. Granger, for yet again being a bossy know-it-all" I heard Professor Snape drawl behind me. I flashed back to the unpleasant meeting laced with urgency and shock.

"Ahh, Harry, sit down, sit down" Dumbledore said calmly, "have a candy." "this is no time for candy Professor!" Snape hissed with an angry almost pained glint in his eye. "What do you know, Potter?" he spat at me. I stared in confusion looking back at him in confusion. "I have no idea what you're talking about." I said matter-of-factly. "about your unfaithful, git of a father!" he roared. "what are you talking about?" I managed to not scream at the insults being thrown, yet again, at my family. "how long have you known you had a sister!" he countered. "what?, I have a sister! How is that even possible…how, but…WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT! Is this some kind of trick?" I bellowed unable to control my temper any longer. "now, now, professor," Dumbledore said kindly toward the raging man, ignoring Harry's outburst, "I told you this would come as a shock to Harry also." "can someone PLEASE tell me what's going on." I asked slightly annoyed that they were beating around the bush. "Professor Snape, would you like to tell Harry or is it too painful for you to talk about?" he grunted and nodded his head with glistening eyes. "very well then, as you wish." Said Dumbledore plainly clearing his throat for his long story. "Harry, nearly fifteen years ago when your mother was six months pregnant with you, your parents had a fight, and she told him to leave. He did as she asked but was so upset about it he decided to drink away his sorrows. While under the influence, he met a young woman, a young woman who happened to be Professor Snape's late sister. It was strictly a one night stand, they both agreed that, but little did he, or anyone else for that matter, know she was pregnant…with your fathers child. She disappeared for a while but nobody could tell you why not even her worried family. When she reappeared she was different but nobody could quite place it and she was quite flighty. She moved out of her parents' house and basically lost touch with most of the wizarding world, everyone but the order. While going through her things, which poor Snape over here didn't quite feel up to doing until quite recently, found a letter, addressed to him. Telling him of the horrible disgrace she had been to the family explaining to him why she lost touch. See, she knew she was going to die, she had already arranged that when the time came, to bring her little girl, Addy, who knew nothing of magic despite her age, to a muggle orphanage where she would find a life away from the terrors of Lord Voldemort. And that, Harry, that young girl is your half-sister." I stared as shock and looked back at Snape he was trembling now, his face in his hands. He felt me staring and asked if he could now be excused. With no hesitation Dumbledore agreed. "take all the time you need Severus." He said soothingly, "are you ok Harry?" I didn't answer I just watched him blankly my mind brimming to the top with unasked questions. "ahh in shock then, you may go back to your dormitories Harry, come see me whenever you need someone to talk to." "I have one question," I asked hesitantly, "is she a witch? Where is she? Does she know who she is?" "Harry," he chuckled, "that's more than one question." He joked as he began to explain everything.

I sighed seeing her looking up at us in alarm remembering the first time I heard about her. I looked to my left to see Snape staring at the girl in pure wonder. I had never seen him with so much emotion, and quite frankly, it was unnerving.

"so" she said quietly, "I must be dreaming, or I would have some answers by now. Am I going insane?" she mused quietly to herself. I laughed as she reminded me of Luna Lovegood for a moment. She shot me a quizzical look as if really seeing me for the first time. She gasped. "Addy," Dumbledore started regaining her attention, "I'm Albus Dumbledore. The headmaster of Hogwarts: school of witchcraft and wizardry. And I sincerely apologize for being nearly four years late." She stared at him her expression one of utter shock and disbelief. "the dreams, they all make sense now." She muttered. And turned to the older blonde woman who smiled sheepishly at her. "you knew the whole time. That's why you were so excited about tonight." The brunette boy next to her grinned. "my little sisters a witch!" he taunted. As her ears turned crimson, just like Ron's I thought silently to myself.

"hey," I managed to mutter suddenly shy. She looked at me again the look of pure confusion on her face apparently not connecting the dots, or choosing not to believe it. "who are you?" she asked quizzically. I couldn't help but smile at her, unable to speak. "this," said Dumbledore, "is Harry Potter, your half-brother." He said and her eyes widened. " and this, " he went on gesturing to Snape, Ron, and Hermione in turn, "is Severus Snape, your late mother's older brother, and henceforth your uncle. This is Ronald Weasley, one of your brothers best friends. And this is Hermione Granger, another of Harry's friends." She was stunned into silence she just looked at us. After what felt like ages, she stood up grabbed me by the arm and pulled me into a group hug with her and Snape.

I wasn't the only one bothered by the closeness but she didn't seem to notice….or didn't care. "as much as I hate to break up this family reunion," started Dumbledore, "we do need to discuss your education." She broke the embrace to look at him. "well because you're a witch, you do need to attend Hogwarts but you see Harry, Ron, and Hermione here are your age and are already in their fourth year. So we need to find a way that you can catch up to them." He finished. "well, she could borrow the…er.. ya know, thingy and come live at Hogwarts with us and officially start school next year…." She trailed off. "for once Ms. Granger, I think you have a good idea." Said Snape, "I will tutor her myself." He added.

Ron and I stood openmouthed at our Professor. He had complemented Hermione AND offered to do something. Maybe Addy will soften him up a little bit. "sounds good" said the blonde woman excitedly, "as long as she can return home for part of the summer." She hastily added. "of course, of course." Said Dumbledore. And the little ragtag family smiled at one another. "so Addy," said Dumbledore offering her his arm, "would you like to go shopping for your school things?" she nodded vigorously. "ah, that's settled then, come on you lot." He gestured for us to take hold of either him or Professor Snape as they apparated us to Diagon Ally.

Draco's POV

I huffed as I left the great hall in a rush of fury. Another Potter! If she's anything like her brother my life is going to get even harder. My father won't be pleased to hear that I won't be able to lure her into the trap he has had set ever since he caught wind that she existed. I, with my dashing good looks and pure slytherin charm, am supposed to make her fall for me, break her heart, and lead her to my father, so he can wrap her up and send her to Voldemort so to speak. If I fail, that means another summer of endless torture. Another summer of having to listen to my mom beg and plead with my dad not to make me do things that I am not capable of. On one hand, I want to prove to my father and the Dark Lord that I am very much capable of being lethal and trusted. And on the other, I want it all to stop. I want to have a fan club of girls screaming after me, not because I'm gorgeous, but because I'm a hero. I Draco Malfoy, must admit, that I'm jealous of Harry Potter.
