Harry woke, the next day, before Lexi. He got up and quietly groaned as he remembered the events of the day before. He stood up and looked over at Lexi. He still couldn't believe how fast she grew although, he had to admit, her growth was starting to slow down. Harry looked at the time. It was far too late for anyone to still be in bed. He glanced over at Ron's bed. It was empty. Harry decided to go downstairs.
He got dressed and rushed downstairs to see where everyone was. They were all sitting round the table looking at the prophet. Mrs Weasley gave Harry a sympathetic look. "Harry, dear, have some breakfast," Harry sat down and took the prophet out of Hermione's hands. He sighed as he saw the headline.
The boy-who-lived - A Father?
Mr Harry Potter a.k.a the chosen one, the boy who lived and wizarding world saviour, was spotted playing with a baby yesterday. One reporter got close enough to hear what Potter was saying. To our shock here at the prophet, the little baby was calling Potter 'Daddy'. When questioned about the child, Potter refused to tell us anything. However, a reliable source has given us all the information on the matter.
Apparently the child is called Lexi. It is still unknown when the child was born or how old she is. The girl looked around 1 year old. However this is not the most shocking bit of this story. It appears that Harry Potter's daughter is a half vampire! We don't know how this happened, or how it was kept a secret for so long, but it appears that Harry Potter has a half vampire daughter!
Is this little blood sucker a threat to the wizarding community? The child is bound to have magical blood, as well as vampire powers. Is this girl dangerous? What will happen when Mr Potter returns to school in just a few weeks?
Continue to page four for the minister of magic's own opinion on the matter as well as Lucius Malfoy and Albus Dumbledore's opinions.
Harry furiously threw the paper back onto the table. "A threat to the wizarding community? Lexi wouldn't harm a fly!" he shouted.
"Harry, calm down! We know Lexi's harmless. Just ignore Skeeter! She'd write anything for a good story, you know she would!" said Hermione, trying to ease Harry.
"Don't worry, Harry. We're going to do our best to get Rita fired. We have owled a report to the Daily Prophet, threatening to go to the ministry about her using her animagus form to invade people's privacy," said Mr Weasley, proudly.
"That won't work dad. It's a reporters job to invade people's privacy!" replied Ginny. Nobody said anything after that. Harry heard Lexi shouting for him so he went upstairs to get her. He took her downstairs and into the sitting room. Hermione came in and sat down beside Harry and Lexi with her book. Lexi stole the book out of Hermione's hands and giggled.
"Lexi!" said Hermione, saldy. "Harry tell your daughter to stop taking my books. She keeps doing this!" Harry laughed at Lexi was now reading the book!
"Lexi, give the book back to Hermione," Lexi shook her head and carried on reading. Hermione had taught Lexi to read from a very young age and Lexi was as good as a 5 year at reading now. She really was a very intelligent child.
"Hermione, I know you've been reading up on half-vampire children," Hermione nodded. "Well, you know how they grow very fast, physically? Well, do their minds develop extra fast too?" asked Harry. Hermione shrugged.
"It's not proven, but I think they do. Lexi's reading at a five year old standard, she can talk and walk and shes only 4 weeks old!" said Hermione, trying to tug her book out of Lexi's hand. "It's amazing. It's absolutely unbelievable. Who knows what she'll be able to do in a few more weeks. Plus she's going to Hogwarts with us in a few days and when she's there she's bound to pick up on magic. In a place with that much magic going on, she'll probably start using accidental magic!" said Hermione, very fast.
The flew open as Lexi refused to give it Hermione, who was tugging at it very gently. Harry went to grab the book, but it resulted in him getting a paper cut. It took a few seconds for Harry to notice that he was bleeding. In that few seconds, Lexi's emerald green eyes turned a very dark red. She gazed at Harry with a hungry expression. Hermione quickly grabbed Lexi and Harry hurried into the next room.
"Mrs Weasley, paper cut..bleeding...Lexi!" he babbled. Luckily Mrs Weasley understood him. She took out her want and quickly healed Harry's tiny cut. Harry sat down. He was very shaken up.
If a tiny drop of blood could do that to Lexi then, well, Harry didn't really know. He had no idea what to do, now that Lexi had smelled and seen blood. He wasn't sure how she'd react to him now. He could her shouting at Hermione in the next room. "NO!" she screamed. Ginny rushed into the living room to see what was going on. Hermione came out a few seconds later.
"She's really upset Harry. Ginny has her now. I tried giving her some juice because I figured she must be thirsty, but I think it made it worse. She won't drink anything now," said Hermione, with a worried tone to her voice.
"Don't worry, Harry, dear," said Mrs Weasley. "This was bound to happen eventually. Little Lexi's just reacting normally. I'm sure she'll be okay in a little while!" said Mrs Weasley, trying to comfort Harry.
It turns out Mrs Weasley was right. Lexi took a nap in her crib and when she woke up she was as happy as usual. Although, she was trying to bite Harry more often. Harry was just happy that his daughter was okay.
"What if something happens when she's at Hogwarts," said Harry, worriedly. Ron sighed.
"Harry, shut up. She'll be fine. You're starting to sound like Malfoy now!" Hermione shot Ron a furious look. Harry was confused.
"What" he said.
"Nothing," replied Hermione. Harry was going to find out though.
"No, tell me!" he shouted. Hermione sighed.
"It's just in that article, Malfoy was saying how dangerous Lexi could be. It was just a bunch of nonsense really!" she said quickly trying to ignore the angry look in Harry's eyes.
"I take it Fudge agrees with that too?" questioned Harry. Hermione awkwardly nodded.
"She'll be fine though, Harry. Don't worry!" said Ron but all Harry could do was worry. Worry about his daughters well being.
