Lauren A. Black (my Harry Potter oc)

Lightning has struck, both the scar and the eyes(age 15)

"Let's have a bit of fun, shall we?" Neville said as they reached the other side of the passage. Lauren was anxious to get out of the passageway. After everything Neville had told them about what was happening at the school, she feared what they'd done to Colin, Marian, Ginny, and all the others. Neville swug open the passage door, blocking Harry from sight. Lauren tried to see over Harry and Nevile's heads, but it was no use. 

"Listen up you lot!"Neville announced. The students on the floor of the Room of Requirement glanced up at him. "I've brought you a surprise,"he insisted. Seamus groaned. 

"It better not be any more of Aberforth's cooking."he warned gruffly. Neville smirked and stepped off to the side, revealing Harry.

Down on the floor of the room, Colin didn't even glance up as Neville arrived. Instead, he spun the silver locket in his hand again. Lauren hadn't written in a long time and he was worried about her. Several gasps and shouts brought him out of his trance. 

"Blimey!"Seamus yelled as the others cheered. "Harry!" Colin jumped to his feet as, sure enough, Harry Potter climbed down into the room. But Colin stopped cheering as another person started to climb down. Could it be? he thought. He was sure though, the moment a pair of lightning blue eyes started to search through the crowd. 

"LAUREN!"he screamed, running at her.

Lauren snapped to attention the moment her feet hit the floor. She scanned through the crowd of students when suddenly she heard a shout. 

"LAUREN!" a familiar voice yelled. A moment later, Colin burst out of the crowd and barreled into her, picking her off her feet. 

"COLIN!" Lauren yelled in return. "Put me down right now or I'LL STUFF YOUR EYEBALLS UP YOUR NOSTRILS!" she shrieked. Colin set her down and kissed her. 

"I've missed your gory threats," he said fondly. She smiled at him. 

"Well, I've missed your adorable face." she said affectionately. Colin's jaw dropped.

 "What! That wasn't even the slightest bit insulting!"he said in shock. Lauren laughed. 

"Fine, then I missed your stupid squishy face," she supplied. He laughed. 

"So," he asked casually. "What have you been up to?" 

"Well,"she said, thinking. "I got taken to Malfoy Manor, escaped, stayed in a bar, wrote coded messages, hid in a muggle playground, killed, stabbed, and obliviated tons of snatchers and Death Eaters, ran across the rooftops of Diagon Alley, found Harry, Ron and Hermione, planned a break-in to Gringotts bank, Oh! I made friends with a dragon! His name is Nalamar. Anyways, um, rode a dragon, got taken back to Malfoy Manor, found Mr. Ollivander and Luna, got stabbed by Bellatrix Lestrange's knife, argued in french with Fleur, argued in English with Bill, spat in many, many, faces, turned a Death Eater magenta, almost drowned although Ron would disagree, met Aberforth Dumbledore, got back into Hogwarts, and at some point became the second most wanted person in the world. So, you know, not much, how about you?" Colin stared at her, his mouth wipe open and his eyes bugged out of his head. He didn't move, even when Marian came over and nearly tackled Lauren. 

"You're not dead!"Marian cried. "That's great news! Just, please don't send me anymore complicated coded messages signed by my mum. It's really confusing." Lauren laughed. 

"I missed you,"she said with a grin. 

"Anyways....what did you do to Colin?"Marian asked. 

"Oh, I just told him what I've been up to."Lauren said honestly. Marian frowned. 

"Huh. Well, if that's a normal reaction, I don't want to know."

Later......

Lauren and the Order of the Phoenix waited outside the doors of the Great Hall. Harry had snuck in with the rest of the students and now the others simply awaited their cue. The Order had decided to postpone talking about Lauren until after the night was over and Lauren was grateful. She and Sirius were practically bouncing as they waited for their cue. 

"This is going to be an epic entrance." Sirius insisted. 

"It's going to look so awesome!" Lauren agreed. 

"What are you talking about?" Remus asked cautiously. 

"How epic our entrance is going to be!"Lauren exclaimed. Remus stared at her. 

"Okay, It's official. Sirius, we ruined her." he said confidently. 

"We did not."

"Almost time to slice and dice some nifflers!"Lauren cheered, spinning her knife in a figure eight. They stared at her. 

"Okay. Maybe a little bit." Sirius agreed. "For safety purposes, I'm revoking your knife privileges,"he added, plucking the knife out of Lauren's hand. She froze blinking rapidly, her eyes blankly staring ahead. Lauren let her hands drop and she looked around like a recently blinded person. She felt at her pockets and started to hyperventilate. She ran her hands through her hair, resting them at the back of her head as she stared at the ground with wide eyes. 

"Sirius,"Kingsley said cautiously. "Give her back the knife." 

"Lauren?" Remus said tentatively. She didn't respond. 

"Give her back the knife, give her back the knife, Give her back the knife!"Tonks repeated nervously. 

"Lauren? Hon?" Sirius tried. Nothing. He took her hand and placed the knife in it. Lauren gasped as if she'd been holding her breath. She shivered and re-sheathed the blade. 

"Never do that again." she threatened. Remus and Sirius looked at her with concern. 

"Why, um, why did you do that?" Bill asked. 

"React that way, I mean," Lauren shivered again. "I feel naked without it."she replied. 

"What did we learn?" Molly Weasley asked. All the members replied at the same time. 

"Never take away her knife."
