Everyone's heard of the Boy Who Lived. They all worshipped him, and why wouldn't they? After all, he did survive the killing curse. Every single person knew that You Know Who had gone for good, and even if he were to return, (which was highly impossible, in the opinion of the public) the Boy Who Lived would definitely defeat him.
However, what they didn't know, was that he wouldn't defeat You Know Who alone. Someone, who holds power one couldn't even dream of, would fight alongside Harry Potter. A girl, who'd sacrificed everything.
Cassieopeia Lyra Lupin-Black.
She doesn't know. She doesn't know her real name, her true parents, her real HOME. She doesn't know. She only knew what was told to her, which was all lies.
'Dumbledore, are you in your right mind?'
'I have never been in it, what makes you think I would be now? I simply am doing what's for the best.'
'For the best? Albus Dumbledore, putting the girl in an orphanage, then handing her over to bloody death eaters! That is not "for the best".'
'Minerva, you know the danger once Voldemort knows of her existence. For now, she is Cassieopeia Lyra Smith. A muggleborn, who was adopted by these people for reasons she knows not. She will know, I promise, but now is not the time. All will be clear to her when the time comes. You need to believe me Minerva.'
Said woman sighed and brought up her hand to fix her spectacles.
'Albus, I won't say anything to this, but remember, tomorrow if that girl goes against you and joins You Know Who, it's all going to be on you.'
'That won't happen Minerva, I assure you.'
'Yes and when have any of your assurances ever been reassuring?'
'That depends on you whether you believe me or not. That girl, she holds power which even I won't be able to handle, and that is saying something. Believe me, Minerva. She will be Voldemort's doom.'
And she was.

"You're a brother, Harry." Hargrid told me as he gave me a sad look. I was beyond confused.
"I'm a-a what?" I stuttered. I shook my head and pushed my eyebrows together. The only thing that was running through my head was 'I might still have family' but I knew that was crazy. The only family I had left was Sirius, that was it.
"A twin actually. 'llow me ter explain, when He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named killed yer parents that night, he knew that the prophecy stated that a boy would be the end of 'im. This was a problem fer ya, but not fer yer sister. Of course, he still tried ter kill ya both, but when yer mother's love protected ya, he thought it was yer sister. Voldemort knew he didn't have much longer, so he decided in order to 'urt ya more, to take yer sister from ya and place her in a wizard home. For some reason, Voldemort had a soft spot for yer sister. No one, not even Dumbledore is quite sure why." He paused and let me wrap my head around it.
"What happened next?" I asked, frantically. Was I dreaming? This couldn't be real.
"She grew up! In a safe 'ousehold with good people. She knows she was 'adopted' but nothin' else. The reason I'm allowed ter tell ya this is because, she's coming to Hogwarts this year, with the Beauxbatons Academy of Magic for the Triwizard Tournament." I couldn't move. I couldn't think. "I know ya'll be wantin' ter meet 'er, but ya can't just tell 'er she's yer sister!" I nodded slowly, still processing. "Get ter know 'er first, become close friends. Then, we'll intervene and she'll learn what ya just did. Now run along, and only tell Ron and Hermione, and anyone else you trust!" Hagrid said and I opened the door. "Oh and Harry!" Hagrid grabbed me. "Her name is Hailey."
