Squib

Chapter 1

Order of the Phoenix:

Rosemary brushed through her long hair lost in thought. She sat upon her bed as Harry lied next to her staring at the ceiling.

"I just don't understand why they haven't sent an owl? Or at least replied back to mine." Harry exclaims sitting up slightly.

Uncle Vernon, Aunt Petunia, and Dudley were out for the evening for dinner, leaving the two twins behind. A normal occurrence for Rosemary.

"I don't know Harry, I'm sorry, I wish I could make you feel better." Rose says, putting her brush down and turning towards him. And she did, she always felt like an inadequate sister for Harry. She could never understand what he has gone through.

"Let's just lie down for a while, it's getting dark." Harry sighs. Rose slumps slightly, feeling defeated. She begins to stand up when Harry takes her wrist. "Stay."

Growing up without each other for these few years was hard on their bond. Sometimes Rose would crawl into his bed with nightmares of Harry leaving her for good to stay in the Wizarding world. When Harry finally was able to drag the truth out of her, he tried his hardest to keep some things the same. Such as sometimes sharing a bed, like they had to in the closet under the stairs. Having her nearby also brought some relief to the boy after everything that has happened thus far.

With the lights out and no one else home, they lied down under the covers getting ready for bed. As Rose finally fell asleep, Harry was close to follow when suddenly a noise was heard from downstairs. Rose, still asleep, moved slightly. Harry grabbed his glasses and grabbed his wand. Ready to protect him and his sister at all costs. The bedroom door opens with a bright light while whispering is heard.

Rose jolts awake and sees strangers at the bedroom door. "Harry," she scurries out of bed and to Harry, grabbing his arm like she did when she was a child. All of this was slightly too familiar for her.

"It's ok Rosie," He comforts her, "Professor Moody, what are you doing here?"

"Rescuing you of course." A strange looking man with an eyepiece said bluntly.

"You're leaving?" Rose says sadly, sitting on the edge of the bed making everyone turn to her. "Already?"

"Merlin Moody, she looks just like Lily," A darker man in a purple robe says.

Harry turns to Moody, " I won't leave her again. I barely see her as is. And with the dementor that attacked-"

"Ah hush Harry, the girl can come with us. But we need to hurry." The man growls out.

Rosemary quickly gets off the bed as Harry grabs her hand and moves with the rest of the people out the door. Harry is quickly told about his hearing he will have to do and some place called headquarters. Rose watches in shock as a woman's hair turns red all of a sudden and brooms fly to each person but her.

"Right, Harry, your sister will ride with you." Moody says, grabbing his own broom. "Don't break ranks if one of us is killed."

"Killed?" Rose whispers to Harry.

"Come on Rose, hop on."

Rose doesn't know of anything more exciting in her life than flying for the first time. She held tightly onto Harry as he flew above the water. After some time they arrive at a large building. With three taps it begins to move. Both Harry and Rosemary look on stunned.

"Go on you two, let's get inside."

Harry stepped in first, then Rose. Rosemary looked around the building. It was dark, and slightly dusty. Rose sniffled slightly, starting to feel tired as her adrenaline went down from the flying. Harry walked further down the corridor hearing wispers from a room. The other adults squeezed by Rose as she stayed in front of the door as much as possible.
