Something is going on.

(10.)'R U OK?'

James Pov.

Sirius and Remus have been frequently checking on me since the truce between Severus, Lily and the marauders. Even Peter has realized something apparently off. My mind was on only two things, RoseMarie and Severus Snape.

Severus asked about the bracelet Marie made for me when she found out that I was not going to be home every single day to play with her and her dolls. I remember when she worked on it tirelessly for hours, trying to get it right, to her liking. She told me to close my eyes and to hold my arm out. I felt a light weight settle over my right wrist and opened my eyes to see the most beautiful bracelet I've ever seen in my life.

"So you will always remember me," she said, smiling. I recall I said, "I could never forget my precious baby sister." I cried into my pillow all night, until the sun came up, at the innocence that the Ministry was determined to ruin and kill.

I remember cradling her so she could sleep, the night before I left to go to Hogwarts. The fact that Severus mentioned it made the bracelet feel like it was there, instead of a familiar weight, and the memories from it seem fresh. He called it unique.

I never wanted to tell someone about RoseMarie so much in my life. I feel like she would have liked Severus. She would be disappointed in what I've become. A selfish bully. A bastard.

I shake my head and go in the common room, Lily was talking to her friends and Sirius, Remus and Peter went to the library. Severus was probably in the Slytherin common room or his dorm. I should be okay, I guess. I have my cloak and the map. I could go to the room of requirements, but I don't really require anything. I leave through the portrait and start walking around mindlessly.

I sigh softly and make sure no one is around before I pull my cloak off. Remus will keep them in the library for a while so I should be okay for a few seconds.  I start to walk to the lake and watched the lake slightly ripple, with my back to the beech tree. I close my eyes for a quick, vulnerable moment, before I hear shuffling.

I open my eyes but then shrug, they will probably walk past or maybe just not see me at all. Sirius and Remus wanted to meet RoseMarie, before I told them that she has already passed away. From the few stories I told them about her, they said she sounded so cute and adorable. She was. I wasn't even aware of the tears falling down my face. She was only seven.

Her joy had been her dolls. She wanted one with blond and brown hair. I made it but when I came home from Hogwarts, my mother was in my father's arms and crying. I somehow knew that the Ministry succeeded in their goal in killing the little girl and I wasn't there to save her. After that day, I never took brown and blond haired doll out of my Hogwarts trunk. Its still there. It was in my second year. I was twelve. Now I'm fifteen, turning sixteen.

My mother had been in my fathers arms for hours before I got home. The Ministry had apparated them away and chased RoseMarie to my room. She ran to her own and revealed the hidden door that I made so she could easily get into my room. But she didn't close the door fast enough. They seen the door and stopped it from closing. They killed baby sister in my room. They left her with the potion, that's what killed her, turning her blood to ice and wrapped around her heart forcefully to make it stop pumping.

By the time my parents found her, it was way too late, she was already ice. She was an ice statue with flesh. She was the living definition of an angel, with a hint of Potter mischief that had rubbed off on her. She never cursed or threw fits about not being able to go anywhere. She'd just be calm. I never seen my mother cry like she did that day. And they never seen my face at all the next three weeks. I was curled up in a ball, rotating from her room and the spot that still had a faint icy spot.

A soft pressure on my leg, shook me out of my thoughts. A note? The handwriting looked familiar. It said 'R U OK?

—HALF BLOOD PRINCE'

Okay I noted that there is no such potion that I know of that killed RoseMarie but I needed something that suited it. So please do not comment on it if it doesn't exist. It exists in this fanfic. There will be more things that is not in anything else and just in this certain fic and I will note it just like I did about the ice blood killing potion. Okay bye bye.
