The Lost Story Of Lucy Black (Book 4 of Danni Hope)

Chapter 15- Golden

Chapter 15- I want to strangle people

Mad-Eye smiled at Lucy as they stepped on the platform of Kings Cross.

"Where's the train?" Lucy asked in confusion.

Mad-eye grinned and pointed at the barrier between platforms nine and ten. Lucy looked at him like he was insane and watched with awe as he walked right through the wall with her trolley.

"Great," Lucy muttered, knowing she couldn't go through magical boundaries.

"What's wrong with you?" Came a snarl from behind her, making her jump. Lucy turned around to see a boy with white-blond hair and light grey eyes standing behind her. A man stood next to her, looking exactly like the boy but with longer hair that reached just below his shoulders. His eyes widened at the sight of her and he whacked his sons head.

"Er- I can't get through the barrier- it blocks me out," Lucy said nervously. The blond man gave a low chuckle while the boy scowled at her.

"I know it does, your mother had warned me about it," The man said politely.

"You know my mother?" Lucy asked, she hadn't even told them her name!

"Yes, I would recognize those eyes anywhere, Lucy Black," He said smiling. He unclasped a chain around his own neck and put it on Lucy's own.

"Now try," he said. Lucy nodded and lent back against the barrier, surprised that it let her though.

As she stood on the other side she heard Mad-Eye say, "What took you so long?"

"I-I was scared," Lucy lied.

Mad-Eye nodded, "We all are on the first day."

The blond haired man and boy came through only moments later. The man winked at Lucy and the boy scowled at her. Lucy gave a small smile,which Mad-Eye noticed. He pulled Lucy aside and spoke to her quietly.

"Da- Er- Lucy, the Malfoys are suspected Death Eaters, we cant be friends with them."

Lucy shook her head, "I think they are nice, not Death Eaters."

Mad-Eye sighed, "I thought you would say that- too much like your mother you are."

Lucy gave him what he called the 'Trademark Black Grin' and hugged him quickly.

"See you soon!" Lucy said, picking up her magic backpack and running off to the train.

"Lucy!" Mad-Eye called. Lucy turned and grinned like a Cheshire cat.

"Constant vigilance!" The both said, and Mad-Eye gave her one more wink before she boarded the train.

Lucy walked through the train, searching for a compartment, her black backpack slung over her right shoulder. She stopped in front of a compartment containing two children- a boy with red hair , as well as a girl with dark brown hair.

"Hi, can i sit here?" Lucy asked hesitantly. The boy gave her a smile.

"Sure, I'm Percy Wesley," He said with a chill smile.

"And I'm Ember, me and Percy are both in Gryffindor, I'm in second year and Percy is in fifth," said the girl.

"I'm Lucy Black, and im a first year," Lucy said with a grin.

Ember glared at Lucy and Percy frowned.

"Your Sirius Blacks daughter?" Ember snarled.

Lucy nodded, clearly confused.

"Ember.." Percy started.

"No! She's a murders daughter!" Ember snapped, "Get out! Leave us!"

Lucy quickly left the compartment, shock registered clearly on her face. Her dad wasn't a murder!

Was he?

While Lucy thought this over, she didn't seem to see the blood haired main trailing behind her....

Danni Hope woke up from her dream again, and ground her teeth together. How much longer where the two time travelers going to keep them there? She sat up and unconsciously twirled one of the three blood red streaks in her hair, pondering over the events they'd seen their children going though so far. She growled at the thought of her own brother ignoring her daughter,his godchild,and letting her go back to that orphanage. Surely he would recognize the name of the orphanage as the one she had been abused and almost killed at. Danni touched her forehead where the faint scar from her own branding still lay, at that time, Kingsdon used a lightning bolt for her branding, until Harry Potter was born. Danni sighed, and wondered how Amiie was doing, when she heard sobbing from her left. Danni turned to see Icess sobbing into her knees.

"Frost?" Danni asked with concern.

Icess jumped and looked at Danni, "Y-yeah?"

"You okay?"

"No."

"Whats wrong?"

"Everything."

"How so?"

"Well, my daughter is a werewolf, my son is dead, yours is alone,Toby is a windcarso, Mitch is alive and Snow doesn't know it, Peter got away, June is evil, a-and...and..We're supposed to be dead!"

Danni sighed, "I'll get us o-"

"NO! You need to stop doing stuff! You got us into this mess in the first place! You just had to join your father didn't you? You couldn't have just died for us!"

Danni stood up, rage encircling her, and blue flames erupted from her hands, "I DID! I DID GIVE UP MY LIFE FOR YOU! I WAS A DEATH EATER, I HAD TO KILL PEOPLE TO KEEP YOU SAFE! I KEPT MY BROTHERS CHILDREN FROM HIM FOR TEN YEARS FOR YOU! I GOT MY OWN DAUGHTER INTO A DEATH TRAP, I CAME AND TRIED TO SAVE JAMES AND LILLY! WE ARE ALIVE!"

Icess stared wide-eyed as Danni stood there with blue flames in her hands, not saying a word. Danni opened her eyes and the flames disappeared, leaving only a fourth blood red streak in its wake.

"You did this to your self," Icess growled.

Danni only walked away.

"Ms. Black?"

Lucy did not jump, but stood perfectly still,"Mitchel."

"How did you recognize me?"

"Your scent- it smells like Toby and June."

"So you did gain your mothers power."

"As you only gained lies."

"I only lied to keep Lilly safe!"

"But, to leave your family? To lie to your own sister and wife?"

"Sel... she wouldn't love me anymore if she knew what i did."

"Faking your own death, giving your son immense guilt? I agree."

"You don't have any idea."

Lucy turned to face the blood haired man, his now blazing blue eyes boring into her. Mitch used to have sandy brown hair and light blue eyes, but nit anymore.

"Sel.. she teaches here does she not?"

"Yes, she does, Mad-Eye told me about her- she has dark blue hair and brilliant ocean blue eyes,also a metamorphogus, and is rumored to read minds, all except for mine."

"How can she not?"

"I have a magical eritic memory."

Mitch sighed and gave Lucy a sad smile, "Go make some friends, kid, ill see you around, just remember- I'm golden."
