The Future

28: Jamie

"Well... I went to Hogsmeade, even though I know I'm not supposed to." He started and I picked my head up. I leaned my back against the side of the window pane, pulling my knees to my chest. Harry did the same and continued. "And I found out that a mass murderer, Sirius Black, is my godfather. And that he sold my parents to Voldemort." I gasped, not out of surprise, but just for the sake of him telling me. I thought he was done, but he had more to tell me.

"And apparently I have a godmother, but she disappeared off the face of the earth a month after I was born, and Black had a wife and a daughter. The minister said he sent his daughter to the future or something, and if she ever came back the Daily Prophet would be on her back for months, maybe years. I ran out a quick as I could after that though." I felt sick by the time he stopped speaking. A daughter? Sent to the future? Harry's godmother? None of this was mentioned in the book!

"Um, Harry? I've got to tell you something." I said, uneasily. He motioned for me to continue. "Remember when I told you I know so much more then you would ever think?" He nodded. "Whatever anyone ever tries to tell you, Sirius Black is innocent. Please remember that. Don't do anything rash. I have to go talk to Remus, so I'll see you later."

Harry nodded, deep in thought. I gathered up my wand and bag, making sure everything was still there, and walked off to Remus' quarters. As I walked, I thought of everything Harry told me, about Sirius having a wife and daughter, sending his daughter to the future.

One last thought crossed my mind before I said the password.

Am I Sirius Black's daughter, and is this what Severus and Remus were keeping from me?

"Le renard est mon amour" I whispered, walking into Remus' quarters. The first thing I noticed was Uncle Sev sitting on the opposite side of the room, facing uncle Remus.

"Jamie!" They exclaimed at the same time. Standing up quickly, they ran over to me and dragged me to the couch, which definitely gave them a work out, because I was not having it. I did not want to talk to them.

"What happened, did something happen?" Remus asked, and I shrugged. He sighed and sat across from me in an arm chair. Uncle Severus stayed standing.

"If you want me to tell you, both of you have to promise me you won't give anyone detention. Especially you Severus." I said simply. They both gave their word, and so I told them.

"Harry snuck into to Hogsmeade," I glared at Severus, who made a move to go. He sat down in another arm chair. "And he heard the minister and some teachers talking. Their conversation was most unusual, at least for me. Harry, for starters, found out his godfather is Sirius Black. And that he had a godmother that disappeared off the face of the earth." I paused for a few moments. Remus had made an odd, sob like sound at the mention of Harry's godmother. Severus held an emotionless face.

"Then he went on. Black supposedly had a wife and daughter. And guess where that daughter was sent?" Remus looked a bit confused, and extremely sad. Severus looked shocked though, as if he knew. "The future. Harry also said that the minister said if the Daily Prophet would have a field day if they found out she was alive. I put two and two together. Thanks for telling me." I finished with a frown. Remus gapped like a fish out of water, while Severus still sat there emotionless.

"D-Did Harry mention his godmother's name?" Remus stuttered. I shook my head and he hung his head.

"Did you know her?" I asked. Severus spoke up.
