Elira Labelle was left an orphan after her parents died from the first wizarding war, left with no one else to take care of her, Albus Dumbledore took it upon himself to...
There was a lot of commotion in the house the morning before they boarded the Hogwarts Express. Lilura tucked a good amount of galleons into Elira's purse that she got from her parents' vault and made sure that all she needed was in her trunk, seeing how forgetful her mind was.
Nayden was seen carrying down Ginny's trunk, which she seemed to enjoy watching him do as his muscles flexed at the weight. Elira wondered why he didn't just levitate them until Mrs. Weasley's screaming voice rang throughout the house, answering her question.
"—COULD HAVE DONE HER A SERIOUS INJURY, YOU IDIOTS—"
Fred and George apparently bewitched their trunks to save the bother of carrying them and ended up knocking Ginny down two flights of stairs. The red-haired girl was too distracted watching Nayden that she didn't notice the twins' trunks until they were hurling straight at her.
Aside from Mrs. Weasley and Walburga Black's screaming, Nayden could now be heard reprimanding Fred and George, mostly the former, for knocking their sister down.
Before Mrs. Weasley could yell even more, Elira went down the stairs and into the kitchen to grab one last muffin. Harry entered just a few moments later to drink some water.
Remus rubbed his forehead stressfully from all the screaming the portrait of Walburga Black was doing. "Elira, will you please?"
The girl stood up from her seat with a loud sigh and strode toward Mrs. Black's portrait.
"What's she gonna do?" Harry asked while tying up his shoelaces.
"Well, my bloody mother recognized Elira when she passed by her portrait — she looks a lot like her mum — and because Alex and Viv's families are known pure-bloods like the Malfoys and us, they attended a lot of those pretentious balls we held," Sirius explained. "Surprisingly my mother acts decent to her."
"Decent?" Harry's brows raised.
"If you want to call brainwashing her to become prejudiced decent, then yes," Sirius replied.
"Hold on. But the Weasleys are pure-bloods too, aren't they?" Harry asked, confused.
"Yes, but they're generally considered as blood traitors because of their association with Muggles," Remus replied.
