Dark Sister

Chapter 9 E.M.P. Revealed

The Marauders looked around themselves in shock, to find that the entire Niagara School had surrounded them. Remus and Peter got frightened and lowered their wands. Sirius and James stepped closer to Severus bravely. The crowd of students parted and Eden strode calmly into the clearing with her long black hair and robes billowing softly as she moved.

"So, how does it feel to be surrounded," asked one of the boys from the Niagara school?

"They need to be taught a lesson in manners," said Penelope Greenwood.

Eden drew her wand and pointed it at Remus and Peter sending their wands flying into her open hand. "Four against one is not fair odds, especially when the one that you are confronting has not drawn his wand," she said as she walked closer to the three boys.

"Did you truly believe that I was going to let all of your little pranks just slide?" she asked as she approached Sirius and James with a dangerous expression on her face?

"Come on Sis, we were only having a bit of fun." Said Sirius as he lowered his wand and stepped back with a mock look of innocence on his face. He gasped as Eden flicked her wand and his wand left his hand and flew into hers. "Hey give it back, that's mine," he shouted angrily.

"I think not," said Eden as she tossed the three wands over to a rather large well-muscled boy. "Adam, if either of these boys attempt to take back their wands or anything else of a stupid nature, I want you to snap their wands in two," she said as she pointed her wand directly between the Green eyes of James potter. The boy known as Adam nodded and grasped the three wands between his fists and prepared to snap them over his knee on her command.

"You can't do that!" yelled Sirius in terror!

"Really! I do believe that I can Sirius. If you wish to be given back your wands, you will have to learn a lesson on proper dueling educate." She said as she glared into James's defiant eyes. "Step away from my little brother unless you wish to get a firsthand demonstration of my strength. I promise you that I won't take it easy on you." She said in a threatening tone.

James looked over at Sirius in confusion then lowered his wand and stepped back away from Sirius and closer to Severus. Eden narrowed her eyes in fury before flicking her wand and sending James's wand flying into the hand of Adam for safe keeping. She then cast a knockback jinx directly at James's chest sending him flying back farther from her little brother, who now had a puzzled expression on his face. She then whirled and did the same to Sirius making him land hard on his backside.

"You two must be the dumbest students in your year. I told you both to step away from my little brother." She said as she tenderly rapped an arm around Severus's shoulder.

"Sis, have you completely lost it?" screamed Sirius as he got back to his feet rubbing his posterior. "I'm your little brother, not that slimy git!" he screamed at her!

"Correction Sirius you and Regulus are not by any stretch of the imagination my blood relatives. We're not even related by marriage. You know damned well that I don't live with my father. Your parents only raised me because his great work prevents him from doing so himself. As for my dear mother, because she chooses to live with Severus's father, I am not allowed to live with her at the moment."

"Severus Tobias Snape is my little brother by blood, and I will not stand for you and your little idiot friends tormenting him." She said as she led Severus from the circle of her schoolmates. Adam grasped her arm as she passed him and gave her a questioning look before nodding back to the four disgraced young wizards. "Don't snap their wands. Wait until I have left the circle and then you and the others may teach them how we deal with ignorance," she said as she and Severus left the group.
