Chapter 7
-October 1st New York City 8:03 A.M.-
As Karen walked into her office, she was on her cellphone, "Starrware is still not for sell Mr. Luthor… Yes I am still offended the last guy hired 4 assassins to try to kill me… It was yesterday…. I know nothing of these Mutant Turtles who happened to be Teenage Ninjas who live in the sewers with a rodent of unusual size. Goodbye and good luck with the lawsuits Mr. Luthor."
With that she hung up her WaynePhone and saw a big black dog laying on her desk chewing on a shoe.
"A shoe? Really Padfoot," Karen asked with an eyebrow as the dog became a man, with the offending shoe still in his mouth as Karen sat in her office chair. "In all seriousness, where did you get the shoe?"
Sirius spat it into his hand and replied, "Snivellus could afford a proper pair with what Dumbledore is paying him."
He then tossed said shoe in a trashcan and asked, "How's the Joker angle coming along?"
"He's gone deep underground," Karen replied as she turned on her laptop. "He is like a jack-in-the-box when he does this."
"Then the question is where and when," Sirius replied as he managed to put a Sherlock hat on a blowing on a wooden pipe that blew out bubbles.
-Potter Manor-
"How did Sirius get into Hogsmeade?" James asked Dumbledore in his Manors living room. "He is supposed to be hiding in the Colonies."
"I was hoping you had some insight on him," Dumbledore replied as he stroked his beard.
"We haven't spoken since he was sent to Azkaban about 15 years ago," James replied.
"I hope Fudge isn't considering sending Dementors to 'guard' our son again," Lily replied.
"I will personally ask Madam Bones to prevent such a thing," Dumbledore replied and then held up his hand to stop Lily from talking. "I don't have the political pull as I did a year ago Mrs. Potter. With me trying to convince Fudge that Voldemort is back he stripped me of most of my political power."
Lily let out a frustrated groan, James reassured his wife as he hugged her, "We taught our children the patronus charm for such an occasion."
"I know James," Lily replied as she held back her tears, "We lost one child already. I don't know if I can lose another."
"If you can think of anything on how Sirius entered England without us knowing, please tell me," Dumbledore asked and James gave him a quick nod.

Voldemort scowled as he saw the corpse of Peter Pettigrew with a horrible grin on his face.
"Malfoy," Voldemort said with veiled anger in his face.
"Yes master," Lucius replied as he stood a few meters behind him.
"Have you the found the identity of this man who is killing my men," Voldemort commanded more than asked.
"Yes master," Lucius replied as he pulled the scroll out of his robes.
Voldemort pulled out his wand and wordlessly summoned the scroll, "You may leave after you send me the men who were supposed to be maintaining the wards."
"At once master," Lucius said as he left the room that they were in.
-Smallville 4:03 P.M Kent's Farm-
A 6-year-old raven haired boy, wearing a Superman style cape, ran out of the old farm house shouting, "Auntie Karen! Auntie Karen!"
As Power Girl landed outside the house, carrying a box of Pastries, she smiled at the boy, "Hello Jon. You've gotten bigger than when I last saw you."
"I'm 1 inch taller," Jon replied proudly with his front 2 teeth missing.
"Wow! Pretty soon you will be taller than me," Power Girl said as she rubbed his messy hair.
This caused Jon to try to stop his honorary aunt from messing his hair.
"Jonathan, invite your aunt in," a beautiful raven haired woman in her mid 30's from inside.
Jon grabbed his Aunt's hand and dragged her inside, "Come on inside Auntie Karen."
As they entered Power Girl passed Lois Lane-Kent and she handed her the box of pastries as Jon kept on tugging on his Aunt's hand.
"Kowalski bakery," Lois said as she read the labeling on the box. "Did you get…?"
"…5 chocolate filled Nifflers the way you like them," Power Girl finished as she allowed herself to be dragged away by Jon, as Lois smiled behind them.
-Hogwarts October 2nd 7:03 A.M.-
Hermione is eating breakfast while reading the London Times newspaper.
"Why are you reading a muggle newspaper sweety," her boyfriend asked sitting on her right.
"Ya," Ron agreed, with his mouth full, who was sitting across from them.
"First, Ron swallow before you speak," Hermione started. "Second, another attempt from the North Koreans to invade South Korea was thwarted by Superman yesterday."
"Superman, as in Power Girl's cousin right," Holly asked, sitting on Hermione's left.
"Correct," Hermione replied.
"They're the last survivors of the planet Krypton," Seamus said as he walked up and glanced over Hermione's shoulder to see the paper before finding his own seat at the table.
"How come there such an age gap between the 2 when they were supposed to have left the planet when they were babies," Charles asked.
"The time dilation effect," Hermione replied as she turned the page of her paper and saw only blank looks from those raised in magical households.
"The closer to the speed of light you go, time passes slower for you," Hermione explained. "Superman's ship landed a little over 16 years before Power Girls who barely aged at all because of it."
"Are you sure there's no magic involved," Ron asked. "Muggles can't build anything that good."
"Their ships weren't built by human hands," Hermione responded as Ron still looked confused. "They look human, but they aren't! They evolved on a planet named Krypton and they survived its destruction because their parents launched them on one man rockets to our planet!"
"Why aren't there more Krypton's on Earth if they were advanced enough to travel across the stars?" Holly asked in genuine curiosity.
"First it's Kryptions not Krypton's," Hermione corrected. "Second, from the news that I've read, the ruling body of the Kryption people didn't believe that the planet was at death's doorstep and the only people who thought so were the parents of Superman and Power Girl. Despite their protests that Krypton was dying, they could only scrounge up one man spaceships to send here before the planet's destruction."
"Bloody hell," Ron said with his mouth full.
"Language," Hermione scolded.
"Why didn't more people listen," Holly asked innocently.
"The same reason blood purists refuse muggleborns can be as good or better than them in magic," Hermione responded.
"Tradition?" Holly asked as she tilted her head in confusion.
Hermione replied with a smile, "Correct."
"Is it just me or is Snape looks angrier than usual," Ron asked as he looked uncomfortable just by looking at the potion master.
"I heard a stray dog managed to get in and stole his favorite robe," Sean said in a hushed whisper. Hermione raised her eyebrow in disbelief.
-?-
"Master," Bellatrix said with a mad grin in front of Voldemort.
"A clown has decided to be a thorn in my side," Voldemort said in a menacing tone. "I want you to make an example out of him."
"At once my Lord," Bellatrix replied as she left the room, Lucias Malfoy appeared from the shadows, behind the Dark Lord.
"Have you made any progress in the task I have given you," Voldemort asked without looking at the Malfoy patriarch.
"The wards for the trap for the forgotten Potter is on schedule," Lucias replied.
"Good," Voldemort replied as Lucias looked skeptical of his plan and as if he was sensing his doubts, the Dark Lord continued, "I don't want any loose ends before my plans for England are set in motion."
-Karen's Penthouse 7:38 P.M.-
"…and that all changed when the Fire Nation attacked," the tv said.
"I don't understand why you watch said garbage," Sirius said in a scoffed at the tv.
"Garbage?" Karen said in horror. "This show is better than those Mexican Soap Operas where the woman has bigger tits and asses then me! At least I'm all natural unlike them!" As she gestured to her body.
"A) They have better stories and B) it adds character," Sirius shrugged off her rebuttal, as he used his wand to make Snape's shoe to change into a Snape voodoo doll. "Hmm, am I taking this too far?"
"The only stories are about drugs, cartels, and sex! And not always in that order!" Karen shot back before throwing a pillow at her godfather, before narrowing her eyes at him, "You really don't like him do you?"
"You're the one with the super hearing, you would know how he teaches his class," Sirius replied, sticking out his tongue at her as he stabbed the voodoo doll with a fork.
Just an explosion went off several blocks away which could be felt in the penthouse.
"Did I do that," Sirius asked as his eyes widened.
"Sirius!"
"Oh, right," Sirius said, "Who is it this time?"
Karen used her power to take a look and replied, "Livewire."
"How big are her tits again," Sirius asked thoughtfully, Karen, who is now dressed as Power Girl, gave him a look. "You were the one who brought it up!" Karen mearley rolled her eyes before zooming off.
-October 3rd Hogwarts 9:37 A.M.-
Holly tried to pay attention to Professor Umbridge as she continued her speech on how Voldemort hasn't returned and there aren't any threats to worry for children to worry about, again.
Holly felt her eyes droop before Umbridge shouted, "Potter! Who should worry about the dangers for Wizard and Witch kind?"
"Umm," she found her startled about suddenly being called upon. "You?"
She heard a few of her classmates chuckle at her comment, causing Holly to blush in embarrassment.
Umbridge scowled as she responded, "Incorrect! 20 points from Gryffindor! The Ministry should be the only place that should worry about threats to our kind."
A female student asked, "Is that the reason the Aurors are buying from some muggle company?"
"Detention Rosechild for daring to question the Ministry," Umbridge responded instinctively.
After another class *coff*ProMinistry Lecture*coff* Holly's fellow roommate and an American immigrant and muggle born, Cassandra Sandsmark managed to catch up to her and with a Texas accent asked, "What's eating you roomie?"
Holly handed her a jewelry box, the size of the palm of her hand, with a note taped on top of it and responded, "I found this as I was getting ready this morning."
Cassie read the note out loud, "I hope this makes up for all the birthdays that I missed. Love Your Forgotten Sister."
Cassie blinked and asked, "You have a sister?"
"No!" Holly responded immediately. "And my birthday was in May!"
Not paying attention, Cassie opened the box and brought out a silver object and her eyes widened and exclaimed, "Amazonian Bracelets!"
Holly gave them a look and sighed as she took them back, "Most likely fakes along with this note."
"How did they fit something so big in something so small," Cassie asked as she tilted her head in confusion.
"An expansion charm," Holly responded.
"Like Mary Poppins bag!" Cassie exclaimed.
"Exactly," Holly replied. "I'm real life she's Brazilian not British."
Cassie faulted for a second as she processed what Holly just said as Holly managed to get a few paces ahead of her before chasing after her, "She's real?" Holly didn't respond as she continued to walk as chased after her, "Holly! Holly, answer me this minute! Holly!"
At the Justice League space satellite at the same time, it is Power Girl's turn as she hummed herself before she heard a slurping sound coming from next to her.
Without looking she said, "What's your question Flash?"
The red suited man, holding a red cup with his lightning bolt insignia on it, asked, "Iris wanted me to ask you if you want to eat dinner with us next weekend."
"I'll bring the ultra chocolate/vanilla cake that you two like," she replied without looking away from the consuls.
Flash gave her a look, "What's wrong PG?"
"My past," she responded.
"From when you were-?" Flash started before stopping himself as he realized there would be no winning if he finished.
"Human," she finished before answering. "The good, the bad, and the ugly."
"If you want, I can keep an eye out," Flash offered.
"That would be widely appreciated," Power Girl finally looked at the man with a smile. Flash smiled back before zooming off.
