It had been 2 weeks since she arrived. Her and Remus became incredibly close. They were like magnets you could always find both of them together. Natalia and Remus could feel the bond become stronger just by being close to one another. They did not mention it, they were both afraid of the reaction and rejection. Another week passed and Dumbledore decided to show up and talk to Natalia regarding school. She asked if she can be more of an independent student. She would do the work at home and drop it off every Friday for grading. Dumbledore asked why and her reply was because she would like to join and help the order on missions. The professor was not surprised she knew of the order. It seems that Sirius told her some information on the order of the Phoenix. He told her to at least attend classes 2x a week unless she was on a mission she would be excused. She agreed, Dumbledore said she would start once they returned from winter holidays. And left.
Hogwarts -
Harry: So that's it for this lesson.Now, we' re not gonna be meeting again until after the holidays.So just keep practicing on your own as best you can.And well done, everyone. Great, great work.Well done, mate.Thanks.See you after Christmas.
At night Harry was tossing and turning he woke up with gasp of breath and told Ron they had to go to Dumbledore fast
Dumbledore:In the dream, were you standing next to the victim... or looking down at the scene?
Harry:Neither. It was like I...Will you please just tell me what's happening?
Dumbledore:Everard, Arthur's on guard duty tonight.Make sure he's found by the right people. Harry:Sir.
Dumbledore:Phineas.You must go to your portrait at Grimmauld Place.Tell them that Arthur Weasley is gravely injured... and his children will be arriving there soon by Portkey.
Everard:They've got him, Albus. It was close, but they think he'll make it.What's more, the Dark Lord failed to acquire it. Dumbledore:Oh, thank goodness. Next we need to...
Harry:Look at me! What's happening to me?
Back at grimmauld place-
Natalia was going downstairs for water when one of the portraits started talking. She was more sleepy than anything and when the portrait spoke she gave out a high pitched yell. Sirius heard the yell and went running towards the sound on his way he saw Remus. By the time they both arrived, phineas had left. She gave the message to Sirius. He replied with a thank you and they went back to sleep.
It was now winter holidays and everyone was waiting for Harry to arrive. Mrs.Weasley was serving food and handing out presents. Natalia was delighted to have people over and a pair of twins that were her age. They got along just great. Hermione the day she arrived has not been nice. Hermione gave her mean looks whenever she talked to Ron. She knew why the bushy haired girl fancy him. Natalia decided that she was going to talk to her and straighten things out. Finally the day she was waiting for Harry was coming! She was excited to meet him. He was family after all Sirius was his godfather so that made him her cousin. She was talking to Ron when
Mrs. Weasly: Oh, Harry, Harry.There you are.Happy Christmas. (Handing him a present)
Harry: thank you
Natalia was about to introduce herself when she heard Mr. Weasly say toast let's make a toast.
Mr. Weasly: A Christmas toast.To Mr. Harry Potter... without whom I would not be here.
Everyone Harry.HarryHarry.
Natalia noticed that once everyone was done Harry had taken leave towards the drawing room where that dreaded family tree was. Well it is now or never she thought. Upon arrival she heard Sirius talking she waited a bit before entering.when she entered Sirius:Besides, the world isn't split into good people and Death Eaters.We've all got both light and dark inside of us.What matters is the part we choose to act on.That's who we really are.
Natalia:uhm Hello.
Sirius: Hey kid, ohh right Harry meet Nat, Nat this is Harry.
Harry: Who is she? Sirius: she is my niece which makes her your cousin
Harry: Nice to meet you. Nat: hello Uncle snuffles has talked so much about you I hope we can be friends. Harry: yes that would be nice and besides, snuffles said your family. He said you're his niece but how?
Nat: Regulus Black is my father.
Harry: ohh
Nat: I hope we can still get along
Sirius was just watching the exchange. It was kind of awkward but he knew they were both great kids and would get along fine. Nat kept on talking and telling jokes which made Harry laugh. She also told him what her school schedule will be like. He talked about Umbridge and gave him a hug and told him that if he ever needed to talk he could write to her. He hugged her back and said he will, sadly it was time to leave. They promised to keep in touch. Nat handed him a gift and told him to open it. It was a picture of his mom and dad at hogwarts. She told him that she found a yearbook in her fathers room and got the pictures from there. Harry left happy back to school, he had more family that loved and cared for him, yes officially the best Christmas ever.
Sirius: you didn't have to do that you know but thank you he left happy.
Nat: He is family and we both lost the most important people in our lives so I know what it's like to have some memories from our parents even in pictures. When is Remus arriving anyway?
Sirius: later on today. Missing him already dear Nat?.
Nat: Yes I am done denying it. I just want to say bye before I leave for a month to school.
Sirius: I thought you were just going 2 times a week?
Nat: I am it is just that I want to take my newts and well I want to have the month to get to know Harry and focus well on finishing my school work.
Sirius: knowing you all your work for the semester will be done in that month
Artemis: that is kind of the plan( looks at him sheepishly)
Sirius: knew it!
