I know, but I rethought and changed it, so the girl on the banner there is Sarah. Tell me if I start to confuse you...

Sarah kicked a rock, patrolling the outside of the maze. Looking through the hedge, she saw Teddy looking around, trying to work out which path to take. She grew her wings and hovered over the cup, waiting for the champion. She saw Teddy and Jasmine running towards it and she floated down, hovering over it, almost brushing it. The two kids touched the cup, just as spell hit Sarah and she fell onto the cup. She was tumbling through the air, and they landed in a graveyard.
'Mum!' said Jasmine.
'What are you dong here' exclaimed Teddy.
'I was hit by something and touched the cup.' said Sarah. They stood up and pulled their wands out. Dark shapes emerged and surrounded them. Sarah saw a the same pure-white ferret come and transform into Draco.
'Malfoy!' she growled.
'Oh Sarah. Alone.' he said.
'Unless you count the 20 Death-Eaters around us.' said Sarah, raising an eyebrow.
'I don't.' said Draco, moving towards them.
'Come any closer to the children and I have to hurt you.' said Sarah. Draco stopped. There was a deathly silence.
'Have a drink.' said Malfoy, pulling a pink liquid out.
'No thanks. I don't like Love Potions.' said Sarah, knowing all too what that was. A death eater grabbed her behind and held her nose so she had to open her mouth. Draco poured the liquid in her mouth, and stroked her throat. She felt a weird sensation. Fred lingered in her mind, but Draco was stronger, his white-blonde hair, his grey eyes, his soft lips...
She felt a tug on her arms, and Teddy yelled 'Accio!' The cup touched his and Jasmine's hands and they were flying back to Hogwarts. They landed.
'Does anyone have an antidote for a Love Potion!' cried Jasmine. Slughorn came rushing out and poured something down Sarah throat. She coughed.
'Ugh.' she said. Fred came out and helped Sarah up. She hugged him.
'I was so worried. What happened?' he whispered. Jasmine told him.
'I am going to kill Draco Malfoy!' he said.

At least nobody got hurt... Draco Malfoy is a git. the end.

Please tell me something I don't know.

Sarah grabbed Fred.
'Calm down.' she said.
'Calm down, calm down? The git has just tried a love potion on my wife, and you're telling me to calm down?' asked Fred.
'Yes! Fred Weasley, you calm down this instant or I put you in detention!' joked Sarah.
'And what will I have to do?' asked Fred.
'I don't know yet.' whispered Sarah.
She heard a gagging sound.
'Yes, thank you Miss Black and Mr Lupin.' said Sarah.
They went inside, Teddy and Jasmine still clutching a cup. Remus looked up, who was standing with Sirius.
'Teddy!' said Remus, running towards his son.
'Dad!' cried Teddy, running towards his father.
Sirius hugged his Grand-Daughter.
'Boy, do I feel left out.' said Sarah.
'Yeah, Mum needs a hug! She's the one who had a Love Potion put on her!' said Jasmine.
'Yeah! Sarah should get a hug!' said Teddy.
'Love Potion?" asked Sirius.
Sarah briefly explained what happened. Sirius put his head in his hands. Sarah marched over and grasped his wrists.
'I could of lost you.' he whisperes

at the detention thing. Though I think he should be able to kill Draco... I love Sirius as a Dad; too cute.

Yeah, Sirius has always been a great dad. And I can't say a lot about Draco and Fred, but well... You'll see.

Well, it had been one of her better years at Hogwarts. Sarah slammed shut her suitcase, and looked round her room. Although, next time she saw that git... well, she'd let Fred tend to him. She went down to the Great Hall, and saw a very grave McGonagall.
'You seriously gonna tell them?' Sarah asked in an undertone.
'The student's have a right to know Sarah.' said McGonagall.
Sarah had to admit, she was right. As the student's filed in, she saw Jasmine and Teddy, who was in a deep conversation with James, amongst the crowd. She saw poor Scorpius there. McGonagall stood up.
'As you all know, there is danger in our lives now. Danger, from a man, who once was a boy, and sat in this hall, who walked these corridors, and took these lessons. That boy, was called Draco Malfoy.' said McGonagall.
Whispers ran throughout the hall, and heads turned to Scorpius. Sarah felt a stab of pity in her heart for the poor boy. It wasn't his fault. She barley paid any attention to the rest of the speech, just staring at her plate. After dinner, she said goodbye, and disaparated home.
'Hey, wait up.' said Fred, appearing behind her. She let herself into the Joke-Shop flat.
'We gonna open?' asked Fred, pulling her close.
'Maybe later.' whispered Sarah.
'Jasmine won't be back until later tonight.' said Fred.
'Yes, but someone has to pick her up from the station.' replied Sarah.
'We'll cross that bridge when we come to it.' said Fred, their lips meeting.

Teddy Lupin looked for a spare compartment, with his best mate, James Potter.
'This is the only available carriage.' said Teddy, as they arrived at a carriage with a single, small, blonde haired boy.
'No, That's Scorpius Malfoy.' said James.
'Don't be tight you two.' said Jasmine, popping up.
She walked in.
'Can we sit here?' she asked.
Scorpius looked up and Teddy saw his red eyes. He nodded.
'Thanks.' said Jasmine.
'Yeah. Thanks.' said Teddy.
James said nothing, but scowled at Scorpius as he sat down.
'Now Now Boys, don't start duelling.' said Jasmine, the all peaceful one.
'Oh yes, all mighty.' said Teddy, pretending to worship her.
'Duck.' said Jasmine.
'Where!' asked Teddy, peering out the window and received a whack on the head.
'I did say Duck.' said Jasmine.
There was a small laugh from the corner, and Teddy looked to see a smile on Scorpius's face.
'Were you crying?' asked Jasmine, straight on.
'Jasmine!' exclaimed Teddy.
'I was.' admitted Scorpius in a small voice.
'OhMyGod, you speak!' cried Jasmine.
'You remind me of Professor Weasley.' said Scorpius.
'Which one, there's about 4.' said James.
'The one who constantly changes her hair colour.' said Scorpius.
'That's because she's my mum.' said Jasmine.
'I know the other Mrs Weasley. She's my sister!' said Teddy.
'And my Dad is Mr Weasley.' said Jasmine.
'My brother is the other Mr Weasley.' said Teddy.
'You're all related?' asked Scorpius.
'Yep.' said Jasmine.
'I'm related through my mum.' said James.
'Whoa, big circle.' said Scorpius, looking rather amazed.

Awe, that was cute. Poor Scorpius. I think I can see a Jasmine-Scorpius relationship unfolding...

Jasmine looked at Scorpius. Scorpius looked back. They grinned and pulled a face. The train arrived, and they all scrambled off. Jasmine glared at everyone who stared at Scorpius. They walked over to Sarah who was waiting.
'Hey you lot. Now, have we got everyone? Jasmine, James, Teddy and Scorpius. Yep, let's go!'
'Why, where's Mum?' asked Scorpius.
'She asked me to pick you up.' said Sarah, smiling down at the small boy.
Jasmine breathed out. Her Mum wasn't one to hold a grudge against someone because of family. The reached the manor, and Sarah knocked. Astoria opened the door.
'Hogwarts Broom service here to deliver Scorpius.' said Sarah.
'Thank you Sarah.' said Astoria. 'Sorry about what Draco tried to do.'
'Hey, water under the bridge.' said Sarah cheerfully.
Jasmine gave a smile, which was knocked off her face as Scorpius hugged her.
'See you next year.' he said.
'You too.' she said as Scorpius went indoors.
'What was that about?' asked James immediately.
'James Potter, if your nose gets any longer it will drop off someday.' said Sarah.
They walked to Harry's house. Sarah knocked. Ginny opened the door.
'Taxi!' said Sarah.
'Funny, I don't see any yellow.' said Ginny.
'It's a red Taxi, A Gryffindor Taxi.' said Sarah seriously.
Ginny gave a laugh.
'Thanks for bringing James home. How's he been?' she asked as James tried to slip indoors.
'No worse then his name-sakes.' said Sarah.
'A royal troublemaker then.' laughed Ginny.
'Ludo.' replied Sarah.
They left and arrived at Remus's house.
'Ding Dong!' Sarah called.
Remus opened up.
'Dad!' cried Teddy, hugging Remus.
'Hello Teddy.' said Remus.
'Calm down Ted, you only saw him a few months ago.' Jasmine piped up.
She looked at her mother and they shook their heads.
'Men!' they said in unison.
Remus gave a laugh as they left.
'Follow, Follow the Yellow Brick Road!' called Jasmine, skipping down the path.
She felt so alive. Like nothing was wrong. She skipped down Diagon Alley and into the shop, her mother following. Her dad looked up.
'Daddy!' she cried, running into her fathers arms.
'Hey Jasmine.' he said, hugging her.

Cute post

Last update 11 JAN 2011

Reactivated per request

Sarah noticed Fred had been watching Jasmine a little more closely over the Holidays.
'Fred, is there a reason why you've almost been stalking Jasmine?' she asked one day.
'I'm concerned. I mean, Draco almost had you. What if he kidnap's Jasmine?' asked Fred.
'Personally I don't think Jasmine would mind, she'd be with Scorpius' Sarah thought.
'Jasmine's a sensible girl. She can keep her head.' soothed Sarah.
Sarah knew all about Jasmine and Scorpius, but they had decided to let Fred cool down about Draco before telling him. Sarah was sure he'd, er, eventually understand, but it was a good idea to wait. The end was nearing and they were to drop Jasmine of at Sirius's until the Autumn term started.
'Be good now.' said Fred, giving Jasmine a hug.
'And don't do anything I wouldn't.' said Sarah.
'Permission to be the most rebellious girl I can be from my own mother.' said Jasmine.
***

Jasmine put her things in her room, as the door opened.
'You just missed her Moony, Sarah left about five minutes ago.' called Sirius.
'Remus!' cried Jasmine, rushing downstairs.
'Hello Jas.' said Remus, giving her a hug.

Would be longer, but Mum wants com

Jasmine snuck back to her room, and slipped out the window. She was off to visit Scorpius. She slid to the ground and set off at a run. Eventually she arrived at Malfoy Manor. Sneaking into the forest next to it, she rushed to a certain tree, and whistled 7 times.
'Jas! Glad your here.' said Scorpius, appearing.
'Of course I am.' she said. 'How's your dad?'
'Still hung up on your mum.' he said.
'He'll have a test, he'll need to get rid of Dad first, and Dad want's to kill him right now.' said Jasmine.
'Yeah, well it'll be a fight to the death, cause my dad wants your gone. He's set his cronies on him.' said Scorpius.
'Dear god, and this is all over Mum?' asked Jasmine.
Scorpius nodded. Jasmine sat down, leaning against the tree.
'Ooo! I hate bushes, I'm so ticklish!' she cried, jumping up.
'Oh you are, are you?' asked Scorpius.
'What? No! No!' she cried as Scorpius leapt on her and started to tickle her.
'No! Stop it!' she cried, half crying, half laughing.
The stopped, panting, Scorpius on top.
'I can't remember the last time I had this much fun.' he said.
'I know.' she said.
They lay for a while in each others arms, until they heard a male shouting.
'Oh no, that's my Dad. If he catches you... well, I don't wanna know.' said Scorpius.
'I better go then.' said Jasmine.
They shared one kiss, before Jasmine set off at a run back home. It was dark, and Remus or Sirius would soon be checking on her. Slipping back through her window, she got in just as the door opened.
'Well well, look who made it home.' said Sirius.
'Oops.' she said. 'Please don't say you told Mum.'
'Nah, she did the same often.' said Sirius. 'Now, who's the lucky lad you've been visiting?'
'Err... well... promise you won't freak.' asked Jasmine.
'I won't.' said Sirius, sitting down on the bed next to Jasmine.
'Scorpius Malfoy.' she said quickly.
'Is that it? The way you were acting it was like it was, the son of you-know-who or something.' said Sirius, bemused.
'Well, it almost is, if you think what Draco is now...' said Jasmine. 'Don't tell Remus!'
'I'm not that silly. He'd freak.' said Sirius. 'But you know he just cares about you.'
'Yeah yeah.' said Jasmine.
'Does your Mum know?' asked Sirius.
'Yeah, but Dad don't. He'd defiantly freak.' Jasmine admitted.
'Dear lord, I can almost imagine.' said Sirius.
He gave a smile.
'I think you'd better get to bed.' he said.
'Alright. Night Granddad.' Jasmine said.
'Night Jasmine.' said Sirius, leaving the room and shutting the door behind him.

Love it

A certain character appears here....

Jasmine got off the train at the station.
'Jazzy!'
She turned around and saw Scorpius waving.
'Scorpius!' she cried, running over.
He hugged her and kissed her cheek.
'Come on, I got a carriage all to myself.' he said.
He took her hand and they walked over, climbing in. He gently put his arms round her, and she snuggled into him.
'How's your summer been?' he whispered as the carriage set off.
'Alright.' she mumbled.
'What was wrong with it?' he asked.
'I only saw you once.' she said.
He chuckled. They arrived in the great hall and sat at their separate tables. Jasmine caught sight of her mum shooting death stares at a plain woman at the end of the table, who was doing the same back, looking green with envy at her mothers seat beside the headmistress chair. McGonagall stood up, tapping her goblet.
'I have a few staff notices. First of all, Mr Filch has asked me to remind you all that any Weasley Wizarding Wheezes are banned form the school. And that goes for the staff as well.' she said.
The student's laughed at Sarah's silly insulted face.
'Secondly, I welcome a new Astronomy teacher, Miss Jane Smith.'

No, Snape is not dead!

Sarah breathed deeply. She would have to be civil with Jane.
'Congratulations.' she said to Jane after the feast.
Jane smirked.
'Watch out. Sooner or later, I will have your power and position.' she hissed.
'You don't scare me anymore.' Sarah said.
'You're only 22. I'm much older, much more clever, and much more powerful.'
She walked off. Sarah felt ready to curse her.
'I highly doubt she is.' said a low voice.
Snape rested a hand on Sarah's shoulder.
'I'm... actually scared of her Sev. I still have memories about last time she invaded my life.' Sarah admitted.
Snape gently squeezed her shoulder.
'Hey, you'll be fine. I won't let her hurt you.' he said softly.
'We've come a long way. Remember the first time we met?' she asked.
'Vaguely. Wasn't I pulling you up Diagon Alley by your school bag?' he said.
'Something like that.' said Sarah.
She went to her office, and sat at her desk. She dipped a quill in her ink pot, and began to write a letter to Sirius

Hey Dad,

I'm in a bit of a dilema. Remember Jane? Y'know, that hag that tried to kill me? Yeah, she's our new astronomy teacher.

I'm not entirely sure what to do. I'm, still scared of her. And she's already threatened me, saying she'll soon have my position.

I'm really unsure as to what to do. Help?

Sarah

She rolled it up, sealed it, and attached it to Binky's leg.
'Dad, okay?' she whispered.
The owl nibbled her finger, and took off.

Sirius's reply was short and sweet.

Sarah,

Be in your room, tomorrow at 1 'o' clock.

Dad

I haven't finished reading this, but I wanted to comment to say you have a new reader! Although I only read the first couple posts, I loved the beginning--partly cuz i love Sirius so much, and wanted to say...hi!

great story by the way ) keep on writing

Good Update! Keep 'em coming!

Thanks you guys!

Astrology. Jasmine had never really liked it, but now she had to be extra carful because of her new teacher. Reaching the tower, she looked round. A tawny owl hooted to make sure people knew it was there. It ruffles it's feathers and seemed to watch Miss Smith. Jasmine hurriedly set her telescope up, and focused it on Venus. She worked, until she felt a warm breath on her neck. She turned her head to see Miss peering over her shoulder.
'You better watch out Miss Black.' she purred, then walked away.
Jasmine shivered even though she wasn't cold. The owl hooted again, and Jasmine looked up at it. Then, hang on, no, she was sure the owl winked at her before taking off into the nights sky.

***

Sarah looked out the window as Binky, her owl, came flying towards her. It nibbled her finger, and seemed to whispered in her ear. Sarah frowned, and gave it a treat.
'Good boy.' she said.
Binky nibbled her ear and took off. She rubbed the back of her neck, a habit she had picked up recently.
'Hello.' said a voice.
She turned round to see her Father's face sitting in the fire.
'Hey Dad.' she said, walking over and sitting cross legged in front of it, like she was 14 again.
Sirius smiled at his daughter, before looking serious again.
'Now, about Jane...' he began.
'I don't know what to do.' Sarah said, biting her lip, so hard she drew blood.
'Hey, stop it.' he said.
She ignored that comment and continued, a metallic taste lingering on her tongue.
'So, what do we propose to do about her?' asked Sirius.
'I'm all for locking her in a room with a bunch of Acromantula's. I'm sure Hagrid has a few.' joked Sarah. 'What?' she added as Sirius looked at her sternly.
'Be serious Sarah, this woman is out to get you.' he said sharply.
'Gee, thanks for reminding me.' she muttered.
'Do not make me get Remus.' said Sirius.
Sarah, at this point, simple got up and walked over to her bed.
'Sarah Samantha Sirius Black, get back here right now.'
She looked at her fathers face.
'No.' she said, pointing her wand at the fire.
It instantly died down, reducing to a set of glowing ashes. She started at them, even more lost and upset that she had been before.
