A world Of Magic and Mystery

Chapter Thirteen - Finaly A Normal Year

Okay. I was confused. One second I was a normal girl. The next I come down stare. Matured. Looking more like a woman. And now. Well now I sat in front of my god-father and uncle. My school supplies already bought. As they stared. Nervous. "Heather. Umm. How do I put this." Padfoot looked to Mooney. He'd started to talk but now had no idea what to say. I looked at Daisy who was peeking her head out of my robe.
"In the eyes of the Wizarding world Heather. You are now officially a young adult. You will now be referred to as heir or mistress Potter depending on ego you meet. Which will also come with marriage proposals and. An honorguard." I stated. I'm not liking this. "Your honorguard usually assists of your godfather or mother. It both. A close family friend. Along with four non heir close friends." Mooney took in a breath. "So far. You honorguard consists of Me and Sirius. We will pick out your other four. We've sent a letter to the Weasley's asking if Ron, Fred, and George would be willing to join as three member of your honorguard. We also sent a request to miss Hermione Granger. Asking if she is also willing to join." I just stairs. Raising a brow. Papa Padfoot spoke. Answering the unasked question.
"Your honorguard is there to defend just that. Your honor. They head. In this case me. Of your honorguard will be your second in duels. And will be the header if the guard. We are also ti guard and watch after you. This happens mainly in the bigger families. The older families. There us usually somewhere between six to seven people on an honorguard.

My brain was hurting. Like really really bad. "Nope." I shook my head. They both just laughed.
"Your father didn't want on either. Don't worry."
"They sound like glorified babysitters." They laughed.
"Your- your dad said the-the same-same thing!" Padfoot said between laughs.

I packed my stuff. Placing everything down neatly. My eyes closing. When there was a nock. "Come in." Sirius walked in.
"Got the answers. All four of them agreed. Are you ready Heather." I was just closing my
"Yep. Just finished."

I stared at Mooney. I was standing on the train. That's when I remembered and cussed. It had been a full moon yesterday night. I leaned back. Walked in. And plopped down next to my uncle. Hermione sat next to me. With Ron sitting across from uncle Mooney and Neville sat across from Hermione.

I stared at the beautiful creatures. Griffins. Like my patronus. I walked forward while the others moved away. That's when Hagrid asked if anyone wanted to go first. My hand shot up. He smiled and told me what to do. I followed his orders. Buckbeak. Was his name. He was beautiful. I bowed at my waist. My eyes never leaving his one. He stared at me for a bit. That's when he also bowed I giggled and all but ran over. I smiled as I began to pet him. Not long after Hagrid put me on his back. We flew around. Fir that whole class I refused to leave the Griffin. Clinging to his side.

We'd been at school for a few weeks. We where now facing the boggart. I looked to my Uncle. Who was a Professor this year we where in a line. Going against the boggart. I staid silent. My eyes never leaving the boggart. Ten people in front of me. Five. Four. Three.

Two people now. My heart was pounding. My eyes flashed to my uncle. He nodded to me. I knew the spell. But. It was what was going to face me what scared me. One person. I stealer myself. My heart finally calm. Until. I stood before the boggart I looked calm. But I was not. It began to spin. Then.

My heart dropped. For before me was a scene I wanted to forget. But different. First it was my father. Standing tall his back to me and right hand raised with his wand. His left hand keeping me behind him. He wore sweets and a simple undershirt. His sleeping clothing. The clothing he died in. That's not what scared me. No. It was the monster in front of him. He was cloaked. Pale. With black hair. And bright red ruby eyes. He lifted his wand. But before dad could say I word. A bright green light hit him square in the chest. People screamed. Crack. Then dad changed. Now. In front of me was mom. Her beautiful white night dress with flour design dress. Her red hair down and messy. Her arms spread wide. Shielding me. Her said smack in her hand. There was a scream. Moms. As her hair flew and she began to fall. The green light had already hit her. Then. Crack. My heart was pounding. My breaths uneven as flash backs ran threw my head. Then. Mom changed to Padfoot. He wore his leather pants. A white button up shirt. And a leather jacket. His wand drawn. He opened his mouth. Then. He to was hit with the green light. Crack. I was shaking. But uncke Mooney had finally came back. Right as the fake him appeared before me he did. Shielding me.

I took a step back. Shaking. Another. Another. Then. I took off sprinting away. My hands throwing the doors open. I heard Mooney tell them what to do and dismissed them before sprinting after me. My tears streamed down my face. My breaths came out heavy. I hide in my nit name spot.

I don't know how long I've been hidden. Only that the door opened and I pushed myself deeper into the abandoned teacher desks. "Heather?" That. That wasn't Remus. Nor was it Snape. Nor Dumbledore. Nor Minnie. Nor Ron. Nor Neville. Nor Hermione. Nor Fred. Nor George. Nor Percy. No. It was Cedric Diggory. "I know your here Heather. Um.  schools looking for you. We heard of the boggart incident. No one blames you for running. You got the teachers and prefects looking for you. We dint blame you though. I mean. Rewatching your parents die. By the same man. Um." He clearly didn't know what to do. He just moved and sat down next ti the teacher desk. "Here. We. We dint got to go back. Just. Just come out. Please." I sat there. For a hood few minutes. Before I finally crawled out. And. I lunged into his chest. Sobbing. He just wrapped his arms around me. Rubbing my back.

We sat there for a hood while. Until I fell asleep. But. No nightmares came. No. Just blank Darkness.

I held Heather as she cried. I just rubbed her back. Surprised. She'd always looked so calm. So collected. Unaffected. But. Even the famous Heather potter seemed to cry. She kept her emotion bottled up. That's probably why she disappearing every year on the week of Halloween. I'd skyways admired her. Shit I even got a crush on her. A big one. My friends have always teased me about it. So dies my dad and mom. I stood up. Holding her gently as I moved. Headed to the teachers lounge after looking at the time. That's where they told us to bring her if we found her. And that at a certain time. Which was a while ago. They'd call off the search. And have us start again the next morning. I just brought her to where we where to meet.

To my luck the teachers where still there. Professor Lupin all but ran over. And thanked me non stop. As he held his niece. I left. Only for my friends to king at me and question me. Asking when I'll ask her on a date.
