Blaise's Pov
This was driving me mad. Draco acted as if nothing had happened! He was back to bullying first years. He has been smirking all the time. He hangs out with Pansy for Merlin's sake! What the hell is wrong with him?!
He broke up with Ember. Not the other way around. I knew he regrets breaking up with her. He was so bloody stupid sometimes, I swear. So why the hell was he acting as if Ember doesn't exists?
Ember got locked up in Azkaban by Umbridge, but there was a breakout. I was certain that she escaped. I wondered where she was right now. I think Draco's had gone mad or something.
I walked into the Great Hall to see Draco snogging Pansy. What the hell? I walked over to them and cleared my throat. They didn't move. "Draco!" I slapped the back of his head.
Draco looked at me and glared, "what the hell, Blaise?!"
"What the hell are you doing?" I questioned.
"Snogging Pansy."
I glared at Pansy, "why? You hate her."
"No I don't. I love her." Draco looked at Pansy and smiled. Pansy smirked at me.
I laughed. "No, you don't. Don't be a prat, Draco."
"No. Why don't you stop being a prat? Can't you see I'm busy with Pansy?" Draco questioned. Pansy leaned and whispered something into Draco's ear. "Just go away, Blaise. I don't like blood traitors like you."
I glared at him as hard as i could. "What did you just call me?"
"He called you a blood traitor," Pansy spoke up. "Now, if you would excuse us. We have somewhere to be." Pansy stood up, as well as Draco and they walked out of the Great Hall.
Did that really just happened? I went over to the Gryffindor table and grabbed May's arm. I pulled her up, "I need to talk to you."
"Blaise," May hissed. "You could have just asked. Umbridge's watching you."
"I don't care. Come on." I growled.
"I'll see you guys in a bit," May said to her lot. We walked out of the Great Hall and into an empty corridor. "What do you want?"
"I want to know what has gotten into Draco's head." I said.
"So do I."
"Pansy must have done something. Draco hates her with a burning passion and now he claims that he loves her."
"Love potion?" May suggested.
I shrugged, "possibly. We should try to make the antidote." May nodded. "Have you heard anything about Ember yet?"
She shook her head, "no. We're all going mad."
"So am I," i sighed. "If you find out anything about her. Tell me, yeah?"
May nodded, "I will."

George's pov
May, Fred and I walked into the common room to see the trio sitting around. No one else was there, understandable. It was almost 11 o'clock. I sat down on a couch and Fred joined me. May sat next to Hermione and sighed. "I hate this. It's too damn quiet."
"Tell me about it," I sighed.
"We need to know what happened to Ember." Hermione said in frustration. "Where could she be?"
"Pst." I heard a voice. "Harry?" It sounded like Sirius.
We all got up and gathered in front of the fireplace. "Sirius." Harry said in relief.
"I can't talk too long. It's about Ember."
"Is she okay?" I asked.
"She's fine. She's with us right now. But something happened." Sirius said. We all begin to panic a little. "She was very weak from being in Azkaban. The dark lord broke her out and tortured her. She could have gone mad. But she only lost her memory. But she's slowly regaining it."
"What do you mean by she lost her memory?" Hermione asked.
"When Dumbledore arrived with her. She didn't know who I was. She didn't recognize Remus or Harmony. She has a picture of you lot and didn't know who you were. She has been having breakdowns from time to time because she gets frustrated." Sirius sighed, "but she remembers Harry, Ron, Hermione, and George a little bit."
"When will she get her memory back?" May asked.
"We don't know. We just have to wait and see." Sirius said.
"This is completely mad." May said, "Ember should be here. Running around the castle. Snogging Draco, after they make up. Punching the life out of Parkinson."
"Speaking of Draco Malfoy." Sirius said, "Ember remembers a little bit about him. She found a picture of them together. She was really confused at first, then she remembered that they hate each other. Which made her even more confused. Remus explained that she dated him. She doesn't believe it. But I know she believes a little bit of it."
"There's something wrong with Draco." I said.
"He moved on," Harry looked at May.
I snorted, "over night? Remember that he was really upset and now he's snogging Parkinson."
"Why are you defending him?" Harry asked.
"Why are you being a prick?" I asked.
"Guys," Sirius hissed. "Enough. I have to go now. Don't get into trouble. I'll try to keep in touch with you lot." Then, Sirius' face disappeared.
I looked at Harry, "just because you have a little crush on Ember doesn't mean you have to be a prat."
"Draco broke up with her," Harry reminded me.
"Because of you," I narrowed my eyes at him. "You saw how hurt Ember was."
"She doesn't even remember anymore."
"So what? You're going to put ideas in her head?" I questioned, "just give it a rest, Harry. She only sees you as a friend, a little brother. So just back off."
"What? Do you fancy Ember as well?" Harry asked.
I used to. I still might fancy her. But I know she only sees me as an older brother. I treat her like she's my sister. "No I don't. If i were you, I'd keep my mouth shut and back off."
"Whatever," harry muttered and went to the boys dormitories.
"I want to punch him," May spoke up.
"Come on, George." Fred nudged me. "Let's get some sleep." I sighed and nodded. We went to our dorm and i laid on my bed. "Do you think Ember will be okay?"
"Yeah. She just lost a bit of her memory. Sirius said she's starting to remember."
"Yeah, I guess. It's weird not having her around."
"I know. We'll just have to wait for her. Besides, since we're leaving soon, we can stop by and see her."

(Ember's pov
***dream***
I was in an old room. I was in the shrieking shack. How do I know where I am? I saw myself walk into the room, then a tall man walked in. It was Sirius.
I watched myself look at Sirius in shock. "You're Sirius Black."
"I am." Sirius replied.
"You're the one who wants to kill Harry, that's what everyone's saying."
Sirius shook him head, "I want to protect Harry. Not kill. He's my godson."
"Your godson?" I questioned.
"His parents and I were best friends, especially with James, his father."
I nodded, "okay. Then who betrayed them?"
"You don't think I did?" Sirius questioned.
"Well, you said you were best friends with Harry's parents. Best friends don't betray each other."
"That's what we thought," Sirius said. "But, it was Peter Pettigrew. He was one of our best friends. We didn't care much about him, but he was in our small circle of friends. As well as Remus Lupin."
I gave him a look, "Remus Lupin?"
"Do you know him?"
I nodded, "he's a Hogwarts professor. Defense against the dark arts."
Sirius smiled a little, "he has always loved that subject."
I smiled, "I won't tell anyone by the way. That you're here."
"Really? Thank you!"

The scene changed. It was me with Remus in a classroom. I was laughing, so was Remus. "I like helping you, Professor." I smiled.
"Thank you, Ember. For your help and not getting bored by my stories."
I smiled at Remus, "your stories are amazing!"

The scene changed again. I was in Albus's office with one of the Weasley twins, a blonde girl and a dirty blonde guy. "Mummy!" A little girl cried out, Harmony.
"Harmony?" I said in shocked and hugged her.
"I missed you, mummy." Harmony smiled at me.
"I missed you too, Hun." I smiled.

It changed again. It was of Remus, Sirius, Harmony and I. We were all laughing and joking. I looked so happy. It all came back to me.
Harmony is my daughter. I was raped when I was younger. Sirius was an escaped murderer. Hems innocent. Peter Pettigrew is the traitor. Remus was my professor at Hogwarts. They're my family.
***End of Dream***

I shifted in my bed and looked at the clock. It was 11 o'clock in the morning. Was I really asleep for that long? I got out of bed and changed into a pair of leggings and a sweater. I brushed my teeth and then my hair.
I went down stairs and into the living room. Sirius looked at me, "well, looks who's finally up." I ran over to him and gave him a huge hug. "Woah there, Ember."
I buried my face into his chest. "I remember. I remember when I first met you. I remember when we used to joke around with Remus. I missed you, Sirius. I love you. You're like a dad to me."
Sirius wrapped his arms around me. "I missed you too, Ember." I pulled away and smiled at him. He wiped some tears away, I didn't know I was crying. "I love you too."
Then, I hugged Remus. "I remember you too. You used to teach at Hogwarts. You were and still are my favorite professor. I love you, Remus."
Remus hugged me and rubbed my back a little. "I love you too, Ember."
I pulled away. I looked at Harmony. I knelt down in front of her. "I remember you now, Harmony. You're my daughter. You're name is Harmony Ember Bolton. I'm so sorry for not remembering you."
Harmony jumped onto me and hugged me tightly. "I love you, mummy."
I smiled and kissed her head. "I love you too, love. I promise, I will never leave you again. I will always be there for you." She smiled at me and kissed my cheek. My baby.
