And of course, leave it to Sirius to belt out to your new found friends that your an animangus not even an hour after meeting them. I turned to see him smirking and leaning against the door frame of the kitchen. I frowned at him shaking me head, and he just gave me a wink.

"your an animangus that's wicked!" Ron excitedly shouted leaning against his arms on the table. I did not want to transform today..I just wanted to be normal and make some new friends not scare the crap out of them.

"Show us!" Ginny said bouncing up and down in here seat. I just shook my head and scowled towards Sirius. I looked up towards Nymph for some help but she just smiled and winked at me. I then looked across the table at the twins for some help but they looked as intrigued as Ron.

"Yeah Ronnie show us" The twins said simultaneously. "I dont want to scare you" i said softly looking down at the table.

"Ronnie, trust me they wont care" Remus said winking at me. I sighed before getting out of my chair and walking over towards Sirius.

"You do know that I can rip you to shreds right" i whispered with an eyebrow raised. He just laughed. "i trust you"

I turned around and closed my eyes and soon I was standing on all fours. I was standing a few feet taller than everyone else making their eyes go wide. I quickly leaped and was standing on top of the table causing the glasses to crash to the floor. I turned towards the twins and growled a low growl and lowering my head. They just sunk down into their chairs with scared expressions. I turned towards Ron and stole the pie out of his hand and quickly sucked it down.

Ron looked like he was going to wet himself, Ginny on the other hand was smiling and soon she got up and was petting my fur . I purred quietly and nudged myself into her arm.

Glad to know one person wasn't scared that my animangus was a Lioness who stood at at least six feet tall. I was happy for that fact given my human form was awfully short. My animangus just like myself had deep brown fur and dark eyes. There was a tan spot above my tail that took the place of the birthmark on my back, slightly misshaped but looked a bit like a heart. I loved how my back paws claws stayed painted with the color of my toes..A deep purple.

After rubbing against Ginny I turned my focus towards Sirius who winked before transforming into a dog and running up the stairs. I quickly caught up to him and grabbed him around the neck with my teeth and carried him back down like I was carrying a newborn cub. I earned an uproar of laughter the second i dropped Sirius on the ground, His dog whimpered and licked my paw.

I let out one last roar before turning back into my normal self. I smiled before sitting back in my seat next to Ginny. "You animangus is a lion!" Fred shouted. "A lioness Freddie" i said smiling.

"Well I think we all know what house you will end up in!" George said causing his siblings to all laugh. I knew all about Hogwarts and their houses, And Nymph told me on several occasions I would probably end up in Gryffindor given my Animangus and Patronus are a female lion.

"So that was bloody brilliant!" Ron said shaking his head ,he still looked a little shaken from me growling at him. "Really because you looked like you were going to pee your pants for a second" I told him smirking.

Ron just put his head down and nudged Fred's side who was laughing hysterically at his younger brother. "Sorry for scaring you Ron, but I warned you"

"So Ronnie, why haven't you been to Hogwarts before?" Fred asked as the laughter died down.

"Oh um,My mum was home schooling me up until this school year" i said putting my head down, and averting my eyes, just hoping that nobody would ask me about my late mother. I loved my mother but she was a sore topic of conversation in our house.

"Where is she?" Ron asked. That earned a smack on the back of the head from Fred,and George who apperated to the empty chair beside him. Thankfully the twins realized my change in mood and my silent beg to not talk about my mother. "Ronald, you are so stupid" Ginny huffed beside me and rubbed my back. I have no idea if my sister informed anyone of our mother, we kept what happened to her on the down low between us and Remus. We buried her through a muggle funeral home in London and I don't know if anyone in the wizarding was aware of her death.

"My mums dead Ron" i said softly. I got out of my chair and walked through a room across the hall. This is where the Black family tree was etched onto the wall. I saw pictures all over every inch of the wall. I found the picture of Draco and his mother, i smiled slightly as his picture made him look so much older than I remembered, But i would recognize that platinum hair anywhere. My eyes wandered past my psychotic aunt Bellatrix who was locked in azkaban and it soon landed upon her sister..my mother.

My mother was really beautiful, she had wild dark brown curly hair, and bright blue eyes. I got my eyes from my father. She looked similar to Bellatrix actually just not as insane looking. My fingers grazed the wall and touched the place of my mother, it trailed over to a picture of my father that was burned off the wall. A tear escaped my eye as I looked upon the family I will no longer have. I turned around and slid down the wall and hugged my knees. "Why did you leave me" I whispered to no one in particular.

"Don't cry beautiful" I heard and looked up and sat Fred and George standing in front of me with worried expressions. I gave them a soft smile before leaning my head against the wall. They each took a seat on either side of me and did the same.

"Are you ok?" Fred asked placing a hand on my knee. George placed one on the opposite one and they smiled at me. I giggled at the goofy grins that were etched upon their faces. "Ill be ok guys, just struck a nerve is all" I whispered and leaned my head on Fred's shoulder earning a strange look from his brother.

"Do you want to talk about it?" George asked squeezing my knee. I just shook my head and switched to where my head was leaning on George's shoulder. Fred frowned but quickly covered it with a smirk.

"Since we already know you will be in Gryffindor you will have plenty of time to tell us when your ready" Fred said smirking and moved from the wall to where he was sitting Indian style in front on George and I.

"Hey, I could be in Hufflepuff like my sister you know" I said laughing and shifting my position so the three of us were in a triangle facing each other. "Oh that wont happen, You will be the bloody mascot of Gryffindor with your animangus!" George said waving his hands with enthusiasm.

I just shook my head "Well don't go spreading it around, I'm unregistered and would like to stay that way" I smirked leaning back against my hands, and crossing my legs in front on me.

"Your secret is safe with us"

"We wont tell anyone"

"but if one of us-"

"is attacked by a bear"

"We expect you to save us!" they yelled together after finishing each other sentences.

"Oh no worries, I can contain Remus and he is a werewolf " I said laughing. "But some situations is where it wont work,like if someone else is touching me I cant transform" I added.

"Well I know Georgie and I are mighty glad you are coming this year!"

"Yes we are Freddie, Finally a gorgeous girl in Gryffindor" george added as they high fived each other. I just raised and eyebrow at the pair of them and shook my head.

"Im sure you both have some hot girlfriends that adore you waiting for you up at school" i said standing up and holding my hands out to help them off the ground to join me. They both gave me a mischievous look before each grabbing my hands and pulling me onto the floor to where we were in a pile on the ground. I was laying on top of Fred, and blushed. George somehow  ended up lying on top of the two of us and what we looked like caused the three of us to burst into hysterics. I was crying how hard I was laughing, we only just met a couple hours ago but I already loved being in their company so much. I think I will really enjoy Hogwarts if I have the pair of them by my side...
