Brooke Black

Chapter 1: Together Again

     "Ouch!" I said as I fell down the stairs. I looked up at the Gryffindor scarf that tripped me at the top of the stairs.
     "Kreacher!" I yelled. In a second, the old house elf was at my feet.
     "Kreacher, did you forget to put my scarf away? I asked you to last night!" I tried to be kind because I know that if I got on Kreacher's bad side, that he would be the opposite of kind.
     "Yes, master Brooke. Kreacher is very sorry for hurting master Brooke. Kreacher will fix his mistake," the elf said and then climbed up the stairs. I smiled at him. He was a nice elf if you were nice to him.
     All of a sudden, I heard the door open. I quickly took my animagus form; a black dog. I crept towards the hallway and when I turned the corner, I nearly fainted.
     In the doorway was a man. A man that looked like a skeleton with just skin, drooping off of the bones. A man with long shaggy hair. A man that looked like he had never slept in years. But yet a man who's smile made me happy. A man who's eyes met mine. A man who ran towards me.
     He got down on his knees as soon as he reached me and I jumped on him. I transformed back into a human and started crying for I was in my father's arms again. He was also crying too. I rarely cry so this means something.
     "Brooke? Is that you?" He said as he looked at my face.
     "Yes! Dad! It's me!" I said as I hugged him. "12 years in Azkaban and you still remember me!"
     "Oh Brooke! How could I forget you?" My dad said to me. "And you're an animagus?"
     I turned into a dog and barked as if I'm saying "Yes"
     I was with my father again. I hadn't seen him for 12 years since he was thrown in Azkaban. No one could no that he was here. Yet everyone knew he escaped.
