Always and Forever.

Patronus?.

They were all stunned into silence. They couldn't believe what they just saw. At the age of 6, Estella had already seen death in cruel manner. Death of her sister, death of her brother. And she couldn't do a thing about it. What mostly bothered Sirius was that Evelyn didn't say anything about Regulus and let her children die in front of her. Family of 5, became family of 3 in matter of seconds for them. The men were enraged. They all were back at the living room of the cottage. Estella looked up at them and smiled with sadness. "I don't think you are ready for more." She stood up and went to the room she went when they came back, but Sirius followed her, and stopped in his tracks when he saw the portrait, his brother, with his small family, smiling down at them. "Estella. Why didn't your mother saved them. She begged them but didn't said anything about Reggie. Why?." Sirius asked her. She shook her head and took his hand and went back outside. Pointing at the fireplace she said, "Rosier Manor."
They understood it was the other place she wanted them to go. So they did as she said. They all landed in the dining room of the Manor, which again was dusty.
There was door on the right and a door on the left, the youngsters went through right door to come across kitchen and came back. "It's the kitchen." Draco said and they all went through left door. They stopped altogether. The coffee table was smashed and it's glass with scattered on it's sides. There was blood on that spot, in between of the coffee table, on the smashed glass of the table. Narcissa looked at the right side on the room and gasped, they looked at the spot. Again, blood stains on the floor, but the whole room had blood stains. This time they knew what could have happened but didn't voiced it. Then a scream was heard in the room, causing them to cover their ears. It was a familiar heart piercing scream. They looked at each other confused, they knew the Manor was empty, no one was there, but why could they hear that scream. Then again a scream could be heard but different voice. Then again in masculine voice. "What's going on?." Andromeda asked covering her ears again. Suddenly they heard a portrait talking to them, "It's the curse." they looked at him, Adam Rosier. "Who are you?." Harry asked. "I'm Adam Rosier, Evelyn's great grandfather." the portrait said. They nodded, and Draco asked further, "What curse, you were talking about?." He smiled at them and said, "Australian Pureblood Family Manors have a curse, it was dated back in 16th century. A witch, Muggleborn, I might add, was tortured by a very Dark Wizard, in the said Wizard's Family Manor, she was so much tortured that when she was on the verge of dying she had cursed Pureblood Family Manors, said as I quote, "The Manors in this island will always hear the screams of the person who will be tortured, and killed in the pureblood manors, regardless them being pure-blood or half-blood or muggle-born, the screams will be heard by anyone who will be a non family member. You will always be haunted by them." And then she died. So it's that curse that you are hearing screams of the occupants who were tortured here."

They went back to Rosier cottage, no one said anything. They looked at each other, but then they heard laughing. They saw Estella and Teddy playing. She was looking very happy, looking as if nothing ever happened to her. A Pureblood Witch or Wizard, from Sacred 28 family, like themselves, were always taught to be superior, never openly loved, never told to openly show emotions. But looking at Estella all these beliefs were thrown off the window. They could see how much she was like her parents, always sweet, always caring, forgiving. Treating humans like humans, giving equal rights to everyone. She looked at them, then to Teddy and said, "Teddy, are you hungry?." He nodded and she smiled, "Come on then. Let's get that tummy of your something." and she took him to kitchen. Jordan Rosier was looking at them, intently, and said, "There is curse, isn't it?." The women nodded and she sighed. "Brace yourself, because of what you are going to see next." and she left her portrait when Estella re-entered the room.
She was about to say something when a silver light entered the room and took form of a Magpie. It started talking in George's voice, "Estella, connect us to the floo network, we want to come there." and it vanished. She looked at Harry and said, "Can you cast a patronus, and tell George to say 'Rosier Cottage', as they want to come here, in the meantime I will connect the floo network to The Burrow." He nodded and casted his patronus. Estella went to the fireplace and connected it the burrow. After a minute or two, the Weasleys were standing in front of her. "We already viewed one vial, you can see it if you want." Sirius told them. They nodded and took the vial and went in the pensieve.

As the Weasleys went to view the memory, Estella asked, "You heard the screams, didn't you?." Nods of agreement were her answer, and she took a deep breath. "I think you should not view other memories." "No, we are going to see them" Sirius said but she glared at him and said, "Have you all seen yourself, you are in no condition to take hold what is next for you." The Weasley clan were back from the memory and witnessed what she was saying to Sirius. "No. You are right we are not in a condition, but we want to, and there will be no arguments." said Bill Weasley in authoritative voice. "Fine. Go ahead." she said by taking out another memory for them to see. Taking the vial, Bill looked them all and emptied the vial in pensieve and they all went to see it.

This time they were in the living room of Rosier Manor, but for Weasleys it was different location.

There was Estella looking through the window, with tear stained face, Evelyn came into the room and  looked at her, furrowing her eyebrows she went to her, "Munchkin?." Taking her face into her hands, "What happened, Dear?." Estella was 12 years old by this time, shook her head, "Can you help me with Patronus charm? I can't cope up with that one." "Dear, what is there to cry about, I will help you." Evelyn said and kissed her forehead.

The memory changed and now they were in the gardens of the Manor, they saw Regulus and Evelyn. And then a beaming Estella came up to them.

Estella's parents were sitting in the gardens, she went to them with a smile, and said, "Guess what, guess what." Regulus chuckled and asked "What?." "I can produce patronus. Wanna see." she said bouncing up and down. "Ok show us." Evelyn said with a smile.  Estella concentrated and after few minutes with a smile said, "Expecto Patronum." A beautiful silver lioness came soaring out of her wand. Her parents were looking at her in surprise.

"She could produce a patronus then why did she told you to cast one?." Andromeda asked Harry, who shrugged in response. The memory again changed and they were in the dining room.

Regulus was consoling his daughter who was crying, with face in her hands. "It's going to be fine Munchkin, what happened tell me." Estella yanked herself away from his grasp and said, "You. You used memory charm on me. How could you." Her parents exchanged looks, "What are you talking about?." She scoffed and said "You charmed my memory so that I could never remember that I had siblings. That they never were a part of my life. How could you!?." Estella roared.

The visitors gasped hearing such accusation.

"It was important, I am sorry, we didn't wanted you to remember anything." Regulus said, his head bowed. Estella then turned away from them and said, "I can't produce a patronus. From the moment the charm has been lifted, I don't know how, whenever I think of something good, their lifeless bodies come in front my eyes. I can't produce a patronus." and started crying again. After a minute, she all of a sudden stopped crying and asked,

"Why Mamma. Why didn't you tell them where was Dada. You could have saved Aries and Scarlett. But you didn't. How could you." Estella accused her mother. Evelyn looked at her 14 year old daughter. "I didn't had any choice. I had taken an unbreakable vow with your Nana. I vowed to her that I won't give up Regulus ever. His safety was my first priority." Estella scoffed, "That means you can even sacrifice me, for Dada?." Evelyn avoided her eyes, Estella gasped, she left the room, slamming the door behind her.

They all gasped at Evelyn's silence. The memory again changed, and they were back in the gardens. Looking at Estella they could say that she was 16 years old.
