"Harry, this piece of shit is the reason why you and your sister don't have any parents." Sirius says looking at Harry shocked.

"I know, we'll take him up to the castle. And then we will give him to the dementors. He can go to Azkaban, just don't kills him." Harry begs the two in front of him.

Samantha watched Harry with a small smile on her face, she was proud of him.

"Oh thank you, thank you." Peter says going to Harry's feet and Samantha pulls Harry behind her. She points her wand against his neck and Peter freezes looking at her wide eyed.

"Try to touch my brother again and it won't be Sirius you have to worry about killing you." Samantha says her voice yet again dark and Peter's eyes widen even more.

"Stay the hell away from him." She whispers threateningly and Peter nods his head scooting away from the Potter scared.

"If they don't kill Pettigrew, then Sirius can be proven innocent and can be a free man." Samantha explains not even glancing at Sirius but she does look at Remus.

They both nods their heads and lowers their wands.

"Being a free man in tempting." Sirius says with a small smile towards the two Potter children.

"Very well, stand aside darling." Remus asks gently and Samantha and Harry move to the side while Remus uses a spell to wrap Peter in ropes and he falls got he ground groaning.

Remus walks over next to Ron helping him wrap his leg, Samantha walks over to Hermione and rests her hand on the girls shoulder gently.

"Mione? Are you okay sweety?" Samantha asks gently and Hermione looks up at Samantha with tears in her eyes.

Samantha noticed how she was shaking and having a hard time breathing. She quickly put together that Hermione was having a panic attack.

"Hey, look at me Hermione," Samantha starts cupping the younger girls cheeks, "I need you to breath okay? Just take deep breaths like me." Samantha whispers gently taking deep breaths for Hermione to follow, and she does.

"Very good Hermione. Now," Samantha takes one of Hermiones hands and placed it over her heart so she could feel her steady rhythm.

"Feel that?" Samantha asks and Hermione nods her head, "Focus on that. Focus on the beating of my heart." Samantha continues and Hermione feels the steady rhythm, she was starting to calm down which made Samantha smile at her.

"Are you feeling better?" Hermione nods her head and thanks Samantha gently. Samantha kisses her forehead gently before giving her a wide smile.

"I am always here for you, now come on. Let's get out of here." Samantha whispers and Hermione nods her head standing up.

Samantha didn't notice Sirius watching her with Hermione, or that Remus and Ron already started walking down the stairs with Pettigrew, or that Harry was beside Sirius.

"Is she okay?" Sirius asks gently and Samantha glares at him.

"She watched her friend get dragged into the shrieking shack by a large dog, and then saw a rat turn into a man, and on top of it almost witnessed a murder. So no she  isn't alright, maybe you should think of how your actions affect other people before you do them." Samantha snaps at Sirius pushing Hermione past her godfather and Sirius frowns at her words.

They all made it back into the tunnel and Hermione was holding onto Samantha tightly, not wanting to be away from the strong girl beside her.
