Hmm? Let's see. I am the author, I have the power. I have been writing a new chapter in my book and it is 6 pages long!!! Lets see what you think.
Sirius awoke. He thought of yesterday and panic filled his head at the thought of Sarah still stuck at the manor. Something stirred in his arms. He opened his eyes. To his relief, he saw it was Sarah, sleeping peacefully. He pulled her closer, and slipped into sleep once more.

Sarah awoke. She lay there for a moment, then opened her eyes. She was alone, in a bed. For a moment she thought it was at the Malfoy house, then looking round, saw it was her Dad's room. She got up, and went downstairs. Her Dad was on the sofa, reading a book. '
Daddy.' she said. 'Yes?' he asked, not turning round. 'Why don't you ever tell me about Mum?' she asked.
Thud! Sirius dropped the book. 'If I haven't said now, I'm not planning on it.' he said. 'Why?
Why? What is it about it you don't like? Yu don't really ever tell me stuff and yet you expect me to be your happy daughter! I'm 13 Dad,
13! I'm not a
Child!' Sarah shouted, close to tears. 'This conversation is
OVER!' Sirius yelled. Sarah stood there for a moment, tears threatening to pour out, then grabbed her Firebolt and ran out the door.

Sirius watched her run, feeling guilty. He had never yelled at her before. She had only wanted to know. She was right, she was not a child. She would be back in a few hours, like she always was, and then he wold tell her about her mum.

Sarah flew, and flew, flying yet not knowing where she was flying too. Eventually it became dark. She landed by a lake near the Weasley's house and the Malfoy Manor. Climbing into a tree, she laid on a brach 4x her size, and slept till morning. When she woke, she heard voices. She searched her coat pocket, and found an extendable ear. She lowered it down. 'He's really worried you know. She has never been away this long, two or three hours at the most. He thinks she may have actually run away this time.' said Harry. 'Don't worry, she will turn up soon. I hope.' said Draco and there was worry in both boy's voices. 'Oh my god! Draco and Harry have a civilised conversation. The worlds gone mad!' she thought.
Snap! The branch holding Sarah broke, and she went tumbling down to land in front of the boys. 'Shish Kebabs.' she said picking herself up. 'Told you.' said Draco. 'Sarah!' said Harry, and before she could blink, Harry had pulled her into a rib-crushing hug. 'Oww... I... can't... breath...'' she spluttered. 'Where have you been, Sirius is worried out of his mind!' he asked. 'In a tree! You saw me fall out!' she said, wiggling out of Harry's arms. 'Lets go home. I think I was a bit over the top.' she said. Both Harry and Sarah got on the broom. Draco said He would walk back. They flew off to her home.

Sirius looked out the window, fear and guilt gnawing his stomach. If only he hadn't yelled at her, she would be safe and happy. He looked out, rubbed his eyes and looked again. A broom had landed on the lawn. And getting off was... Sarah!
__________________________________________________ ______________
Sarah got off the broom. She heard the front door open. She jumped onto the ground when she was pulled off it again, into a hug that smelt of 'Dad!' she choked. 'Sarah! I've been worried sick! Where were you?' he breathed into her ear. 'She was in a tree, she wouldn't of been fond if her branch hadn't snapped and fallen out with her.' said Harry, grinning. 'What! A Tree! You spent the night in a tree!' said Sirius, still holding Sarah tightly. 'Yep.' Sarah said. 'You must be freezing! Lets get you inside.' he said. Sarah grinned at Harry, who said he was back off to Ron's house. Sirius shut the door, and refused to put Sarah down till he sat on the sofa. He pulled her onto his lap. 'Right, what do you want to know about your Mum?' he said. 'Who was she, and were is she now?' Sarah asked. Sirius said 'Well...'
'Your mum and I met in Hogwarts. I was a Gryffindor, and she a Hufflepuff. We met and we stated dating. We eventually got married. A year later, she had you. She was called Samantha, I was called Sirius, so we went for another S name. Sarah came up, and we called you Sarah. One day, your mother was at work, and I was at home, looking after you, when your mum called. She was in trouble. I left you at home, knowing that only the Order could get in, and they all loved you. I regretted that for a long time. When I arrived, your mum was there facing a crown of Death Eaters. I ran forward and started firing spell at them, as they fired back. In the chaos, one of us hit your mum. I cried then, and took her body to the same Graveyard as Lily ad James Potter. I buried her next to them. I went home, vowing to protect you with my life. But when I got home, you were gone. I interrogated Kreacher and learned his 'Mistress' had told him to take you to an orphanage, but had said not to tell me. I felt like life just wasn't worth living. Thats why I didn't tell you. I just wanted you to be happy, and safe. I didn't want to lose you like I lost your mum.' Sirius finished. Sarah sat there. She realised her eyes were blurry. Tears spilled out, Sirius pulled her against him, and put his arms around her as she wept.

Sirius sat there, his arms round his baby girl as she sat there sobbing. ''I've made you top all soggy.' she sniffled. 'It's Ok, it was going to wash.' he said. The door rang. 'Come on, lets go see who it is.' Sirius said. He went over the the door, and opened it. 'Hello Sirius. Now, where is that God-Daughter of mine? I have some chocolate for her.' wondered Lupin, standing at the door. 'Remus!' Sarah shrieked and gave her God-father a hug. 'Hello Bon-Bon.' Remus said, giving her a hug back. Sirius smiled and said. Hello Remus. I'll got get Sarah's case. It's packed upstairs.' He went up he stairs and into Sarah's room. He saw her Diary, left open. Hew grabbed it,thinking she would want it, then looked as he saw his name.
'
I can't tell Dad what I did at the Orphanage. It's the reason when we went to London no kid wanted to be near me.
Sirius frowned as he stuffed it in Sarah's suit case.
