Harry's POV
It was the summer before our fifth year at Hogwarts. Hermoine, Ron , the rest of the Weasleys , the order of the Phoenix , my godfather Sirius Black And I we're all staying in 12 Grimmauld Place the house of black. At the minute I was with Sirius in his childhood bedroom he was telling me stories about my fathers mischievous pranks in Hogwarts.

"Hey Sirius, Who is this?" I asked looking at a photo of him, my father and a girl who looked oddly similar to Sirius. Out of the corner of my eye I saw Sirius stiffen with a scowl on his face.

"I think that Dumbledore should be the one to tell you that , but that was my twin." I nodded not to continue asking as I saw the sadness and anger in his eyes. ' I'll ask Dumbledore later when he is finished talking to Molly and Arthur Weasley. I just wonder what happened to her.' I thought to myself.

~~~Time skip to the library with Dumbledore and Harry~~~
I was in the library with Dumbledore about to ask him about Sirius' twin. I had nicked the photo from his room before I came.

"Harry I know your about to ask me about Nova Black Sirius' twin but instead I'm going to show you something that anyone in your generation doesn't know." The headmaster said in his soft voice but with pity in his eyes. He walked over to a Pensieve

That's when I realized this girl is either dead or missing but most likely dead since she's the same age as Sirius and suffered from the dark times of Voldemort. I walked over to the pensieve and felt myself being sucked into the memories.

In the memories
When I opened my eyes after a few seconds of dizziness what I saw before me broke my heart it was my father. He looked to be in his seventh year and he was sitting at a tree by the black lake with a young Remus,Sirius and Peter. They were all laugh and having a good time and that just made me depressed.

Sirius and Remus had know him longer than me and took his death much worse. Suddenly a girl came over. It was Sirius' sister , Nova. As she was coming over you could see the smirk on her face as she tip toed her way behind my father and scaring him along with the others.

"Hello deer."dad said in a very cocky voice which made her laugh.

"Oh prongs what will I do with you and your puns" she giggled but than the scene grew serious(no pun intended). My father turned fully towards her and got something from his pocket.

"Marry me?" He asked. I was beyond shocked. He was with someone before my mother. The look on her face you could already tell her answer.

"HELL YEAH" she screamed jumping into his arms and kissing him. As they pulled away he started putting the ring on her finger but everything started getting blurry as a new scene developed.

It was my home. The day my parents were murdered. I saw my father and Nova talking with a baby in her hands.

"James what are we gonna do. Harry's in danger. My baby . Our baby.." she sobbed and this left me confused as hell. She's my mother.
I thought Lily Evans was. There was a knock at the door and before I could comprehend what was happening I realized I was upstairs in a nursery.

"My baby . Have mercy on my baby please . You've already killed my husband . He can't lose any more." My supposed mother sobbed and by now my cheeks were stained with tears.

"Don't worry you will not be dying tonight Mrs.Potter you will be taking a long holiday." Voldemort said in his snake like voice and clicked his fingers and my mom was whisked away in a black cloud.

"MOM!!!NNOOO!!!" I screamed before I felt my self being pulled out of the pool of memories. I turned to look at Dumbledore and screamed in his face "WHY DIDN'T ANYONE TELL ME!!! Why..."by the end of my out burst it turned in a whisper before I broke into tears.

"Harry no one told you because we are all still heartbroken. She was loved all around Hogwarts even by slytherins and throughout the Wizarding community. When she got captured Voldemort made a corpse appear and used that it imitate your mother."

I couldn't take it anymore I just ran straight to my room and locked my self in there ignoring my headmaster calling behind me. 'My mother could still be alive' that's all I could think about. That's the one thing that kept me sane for now.

I've been in my room for the full day and ignored the pleas at the door for me to come out. They were only the adults as my friends probably don't know what is happening. After awhile I fell asleep but had a weird feeling in the pit of my stomach that kept me tossing and turning all night long.

Nova's POV
Today's the day. I'm going to try and escape this hell where ever it is. It's been fifteen years since I saw the sun. Fifteen years since fresh air. Fifteen years since I saw my friends.... my family....

That's the one thing that's kept me alive. I needed to see my son and brother again. I've been planning my escape for months now and I've finally got this right. I'll appart to my old home 12 Grimmauld Place. I've been practicing but bows the time the death eaters haven't tortured or came down in a while since their master returned.

I km keeping a listen out for the grandfather clock to strike 3am for the time. That's when I hear it. The loud chime of the clock. I close my eyes and concentrate on the living room of my old home and felt me being pulled into the appartation.
