Black

Prologue

My story begins, for me, at the age of thirteen on a train by the name of the Hogworts Express. Yes, Yes, I know this is all very familiar to you. 'Why does my story start here?' you may wonder. Well, I'll tell you. Before I attended Hogwarts I went to a American school in the States called Salem Witches' Institute. Yes, it's a real school look it up. It was obviously in Massachusetts, if you are acquainted with American geography and what not. It was a lovely place, the states. Although, I had few friends because of my last name. Which, I'm guessing, you've caught onto already.

I am Sirius Orion Black's daughter, in the flesh. Not really in flesh, I guess, in the words? You know we are a bit off topic. I'm actually in a way named after my father. His name, Sirius means brightest star in the sky. Mine, Carina means the second brightest star in the sky.

When I was thirteen, I remember I was very bitter- sweet about this. Seeing as it was nice to be somehow connected to my father but it was also a constant reminder he was not there. Mind you, he also was in Azkaban at that point, known as a 'mass murder'. My Mother, which I'm also named after, Edith was killed early on in the war in a battle. Form what my Uncle had told me she was dueling with a masked Death Eater when the killing curse was shot at her and she was gone. I never knew her very well. Heck I only knew her for a few months! But, I don't think you could miss a person more than I miss her. Ever since then I have stayed with my fathers best friend, Remus Lupin. However, I called him Uncle Rem, I couldn't pronounce his name so that just kind of stuck. He sent me to a American school for 'safety per cations' which I was very angry with him for at the time but I think now I understand.

In my third year my dear Uncle was appointed Hogworts new Defense Against The Dark Arts teacher. I know a fabulous job offer considering the teacher of that subject either got possessed by Voldemort or lost his memory. That year, I begged to go to Hogwarts for months and months on end.

One night at dinner we reserved a letter from owl-post. I wasn't to amused with this till I found out it was a Hogwarts acceptance letter! That night was a very happy night in the Lupin-Black house hold. We danced to music in the living room and just laughed with each other. We did this for around three hours that night. Afterward we watched a few movies on the telly and I fell asleep right after he did.

Now, I'm not exactly sure what would have happened if Uncle Rem wouldn't have sent me to Hogwarts. Its actually pretty scary thought. Everything that I think about when I look back is mostly sprung from that moment. So, I would have to say I could never thank my Uncle Rem more.
