1. Each blogger must post these rules first.
2. Each blogger starts with 8 random facts/habits about themselves.
3. Blogger s that are tagged need to write on their own blog about their 8 things.
4. At the end of your blog,you need to choose 8 people to get tagged and list their names.
5. Don't forget to leave them a comment,telling them that they've been tagged and to read your blog

Well those are the rules and here come the facts!

1. I am barely human, instead I have vampire, shapeshifter ans fairy DNA within me...don't ask about the fairy thing because I have no idea how that worked out...
2. I am Voldemort's granddaughter and I am ashamed to carry the same name as the monster who killed my family.
3. I made it so that Lucius Malfoy would have a VERY difficult time having children...I will give you a hint on how...exploding toilet...
4. I view my elemental abilities as a curse because all that they have done is destroy my loved ones...because of my abilities and temper, the boy I loved was burned to death...I couldn't control the flames...
5. I hide my emotions from even my best friends at times and there are some things that nobody will ever know about me or my past...
7. I fell in love with Sirius Black and I never meant to...It almost caused my half-sister Lilac to disappear from existence...
8. When people try to blame me for their mistakes, I get pissed and when they continue to say that they can beat me in a fight...They'd best run for their lives...or be prepared for pain...

Hey

Hey, Ray wants me to do my fairy name so...yeah, here it is:

Your fairy is called Feather Goblinwitch

She is a bringer of riches and wealth.

She lives in high places where the clouds meet the earth.

She is only seen in the enchanted moment between sleep and waking.

She wears pale blue like the sky. She has gentle green wings like a butterfly.

Get your free fairy name here!

....I don't know about it...What do you think?

MY TURN! MY TURN! Hi I'm Jessica Pan, Friend of Saphire and Radar! I did the fairy thing to! Here's mine!


Your fairy is called Tangle Elfdancer
She is a cheerful sprite.
She lives at the bottom of tangled gardens and in hedgerows.
She is only seen when the bees swarm and the crickets chirrup.
She wears tangled dresses of multicoloured petals. She has delicate green wings like a cicada.

YAY I got the same as Radar did! Does that mean we're similar?

...Ummm this is Saphire again and no...Pan and Ray are NOT similar...at least not REALLY similar...

Cya!

My Vampire Ancestry

Hey everyone,

I've decided to tell you a bit about my ancestry with pictures! The pictures aren't really pictures of THEM exactly...They are just similar to the real thing.

First is of course Salazar Slytherin, my dear old great great...grandpa!



I found him with his wonderful vampire queen Sophia, my great great...grandma!



Don't they make a great couple? This is where I get my fangs and blood lust from, I am in the right when I blame them if I accidentally suck someone dry of their blood! Not that I will...because I don't want to become a complete vampire...

-Saphire.A.R.D.P

P.S. If I find a better picture of grandpa, I will show you!

Lilac's Problem/Obsession

Hi...OK it IS Lilac's fault and she IS protecting him...If she wasn't then she wouldn't try to stop me from killing him!!! PLUS she had his children!!! MY NIECES AND NEPHEWS/AUNTS AND UNCLES!!! THAT ISN'T RIGHT!!!

The plan was simple, go back in time and kill Voldemort. I don't remember anything about her MARRYING him!!

Ugh...Life...Stinks...

-Saphire Anna Riddle Percival Dumbledore (soon to be Black)

WHY?!??!?!

WHY!? Why isn't anything going right! My half-sister + my grandfather = YUK! I mean come on! Its so illogical! Then my stupid vampire ancestors won't do anything! UGH!...Must I do EVERYTHING?!

Saphire.A.R.D.P

Who am I?

Sometimes I wonder about who I truly am....I am different from everyone around me....

Born a Ravenclaw and Slytherin:




But raised to be a true Griffindor:


Who was I meant to be? If my parents hadn't of died...would I be different? Would I have been in Slytherin? Or completed all of my years in Hogwarts in Ravenclaw?

If my true grandfather, the Dark Lord Voldemort, had found me that night long ago..would I support the Dark Side instead of the Light?

Sometimes I feel the darkness of my ancestors trying to break free inside me...and I fear that one day...it might...

Saphire.A.R.D.P.

I am Fine

Ok...Both me and Ray are good...though we are pissed that Sonar can't mind his own business....We're good though. Truce to Echo and Lilac!

My Confrontation with Tom

Hey, I forgot to tell everyone about my first class with Tom as my Teacher....THAT was interesting.....

It started out...ok....until I found out that he was helping Dumbledore teach....I decided to refuse...So I stood up and shouted "I REFUSE!"...and of course Sirius stood up and shouted that he refused to....only to ask WHAT he refused a few minutes later. Good old Grandpa Dumbledore decided to ignore my comment and move on with the lesson. That idiot, who calls himself a Dark Lord actually thought that I, DESCENDANT OF ROWENA RAVENCLAW, would need HIS help! Can you believe that?!? Anyway when I said no....and a few other things...He freaked out, grabbed me and started shaking me...And wouldn't you know? My grandfather, THE Lord Voldemort, the Darkest Wizard in History, was JEALOUS of Lilac's affections toward well-known Slytherin, Regulus Black....Odd I know...I started cracking up with laughter right there! I MEAN COME ON! WHO WOULD HAVE GUESSED IT!?!

Well those are the highlights of THAT experience...

Surprises and Confusion

Alright, I bet a lot of you are wondering what my decision was huh? Well thats simple it was to have a talk with my ancestors....or the vampire coven they belonged to. I knew that going into a vampire's territory would be extremely dangerous, but I also knew that it was something I had to do. With vampires by my side, I would be stronger....and I knew more about vampires and their ways than most. If the kin of a vampire, betrayed their ways and killed another of their kin in cold blood, then said kin would be banished from the coven, if there was another attempt on other kin, then death was imminent for the murderer.

Without another word, I stood and went to the Dark Forest. Almost immediately, I was surrounded and questioned. I stayed calm and told the guards that I had come in search of my blood ancestor. They asked for a name, but I had none to give. Since I had no name, my blood was needed to see if I truly belonged to their coven. Thankfully, I had a vial of my blood. After one sip the guards eyes widened and he bowed to me, begging for my forgiveness. He called me princess and immediately brought to the coven's leader. It was there that I received a surprise. My ancestor was the Vampire Queen, leader of the coven, but that was not the only surprise....Her mate was none other than Salazar Slytherin. I stepped back in shock. How? This discovery created so many questions, but that night, I solved the age old mystery of Hogwarts School. What happened to the fourth founder....Salazar Slytherin. It seems that Salazar left the school because he choose to become a vampire and live forever with his love.

I stayed for a few hours, explaining the reason of my visit. I told them the truth. I told them that I was their descendant and that I was ashamed of my true name. They asked why....I told them. I told them that my grandfather, Tom Riddle, murdered his son...MY father..in cold blood. I told them that my half-sister on my mother's side was taken because he thought that she was his true granddaughter. I told them of the war that raged and caused so much grief...and I told them of my mission. They were shocked and they both agreed that Tom Marvolo Riddle would die. After we settled that problem, I asked Sophia, my ancestor, if there was a way to stop the blood lust and the fangs. She touched my forehead and said the words "Ater atra atrum auxilium".She told me that that this would only stop my blood lust...not my fangs. She also gave me a necklace that I could use to call upon any member of the coven...my coven. On that night, I gained a new title....Saphire, Princess of the Vampires.

The next day, I was with the Marauders and noticed that Remus wasn't looking well. When I thought about it, I realized that that night was a full moon....I also noticed that Sirius was acting weird. After I helped Remus to the Hospital Wing, James pulled me aside and asked me if there was a reason I didn't go on a date with Sirius. I told him that there was reason, but I refused to tell him what that reason was and seemed to accept it.

That night, I decided that it was time to reveal ONE of my secrets. The fact that I was an animagus. I followed them into the Shrieking Shack. James and Sirius were shocked beyond belief...and Sirius was embarrassed because he realized that I was the fox that he confessed his love for me to.

The next day, I noticed that Lilac wasn't around. When I saw her later that day, she was covered in scratches and when I asked her what happened, her eyes glowed red and she grew...what looked like fangs....Not to mention...attacked me...

Later that day.....a bad thing happened....I was sitting in the common room....and ALL the marauders walked in....that included Peter....my fangs grew...I covered them and tried to get away...but Sirius grabbed me and took my hand away from my mouth....they all saw and I let my tears stream down my face...I saw Sirius's face....he was horrified...Without another word, I turned and ran to Dumbledore's office. I ran into the room, only to see Tom. I quickly made up an excuse and ran to the Lake....It was there that Sirius found me.

He walked up behind me silently....I thought that he would hate me...unlike Remus, I was a vampire year around....He told me he didn't hate me and said that he loved me...I asked why...and all he said was that you didn't need a reason to love someone...and pulled my into a loving kiss. I froze at first, but slowly began to kiss back. I told him that he couldn't tell anyone because I would be in danger if people found out. He promised to protect me no matter what.....But I knew he couldn't.....It was I that had to protect him.....That night...I accepted the fact that I had fallen in love with Sirius Black.

Now HERE'S A SHOCKER! Ever have your new boyfriend have to...do it with someone else RIGHT WHEN YOU GET TOGETHER or your half-sister will cease to exist? I HAVE!....yup....Lilac's arm was disappearing....and no matter how mad I was at her, I didn't want her to stop existing....I liked her existing thanks...So....I broke it off with Sirius...and he didn't take it well.....Then a few hours later, Lilac walked up and said that everything was fine...and something about unfreezing Tom. Then me and Sirius were back to together....HOORAY!

The next day......I almost barfed......Malfoy tried to....RAPE ME!...Thankfully Sirius saved me....well dog Sirius did....well I thought he did...but when I asked him later....he didn't remember. Still didn't know who or what saved me, but I decided that Malfoy needed to learn a lesson....It was time for a little REVENGE! ...What was that revenge? You'll find out in my next post.

-Saphire.A.R.P.D

Things Get Confusing

OK...I left off with me once again using the Timeturner, forcing Lilac to come and not die. Now if you think that what happened so far is hard to believe...you have a BIG shock coming because it gets even MORE bizarre...yup...Kids don't attempt to redo what we have done...A LOT has happened and we are currently in this time period still.

We arrived in the Great Hall out of thin air with Lilac trying to kill me, but then I stopped her by blowing her off the staff table with my air element...YES I DID say the STAFF TABLE....Bet you that Dumbledore got a shocker when we landed right in front of him huh?...Well, Lets just say that Lilac saw Evil Grandpa, Tom Riddle, and get this HE DIDN'T LOOK LIKE A SNAKE MAN! Well, when I saw him..I kinda...lost it....I screamed EVIL GRANDFATHER OF DEATH! and pointed at him...then he made a fool of himself and said that he didn't do the necessary things to BE a grandfather...in front of the entire Great Hall! LOL. But yeah...I politely asked him who my grandma was and he REFUSED TO TELL ME! CAN YOU BELIEVE HIM!...I mean I have a right to know who my grandmother is...Don't I?...Lets just say I wasn't pleased sooo I punched him out of his chair....Then...Lilac didn't know who this one old guy was and when Good Grandpa told her it was Professor Dippit...She asked "Dip What?"....then Dumbledore pointed to the timeturner...questioning Dippet...and Lilac thought that he wanted to dip that timeturner....odd I know...Well after I got Lilac to understand that Dippet was the guys name...I saw a younger Peter Pettigrew...I kinda picked him up and threw him in the Lake...Who knew that he couldn't swim?...To bad Grandpa saved him....then used Stupefy on Lilac and I....

We came to in...I think it was the Headmaster's office....We were tied to chairs with magical rope...While I was telling the rope and chair that I hated them, Dumbledore and Dippet were staring at me and Lilac....Then we took a truth potion...Me willingly and Lilac by force...Our true names were revealed...though thankfully I stopped myself from saying the Riddle part of my name....Dippet muttered something about him not even knowing that Dumbledore had a kid. Yeah....it was kinda awkward....

After Dippet had left....Lilac had to be an idiot and say "we come from the future, but fear not, we come in peace"...or something like that....She had forgotten that I no longer had the vial of memories, but thankfully we convinced Grandpa that we were for the light and NOT crazy. Then we were sorted into our houses...Me in Gryffindor and Lilac in Slytherin...Also Lilac had to change her name to Lilac Bishop...She was NOT happy....but we went to our assigned Houses none the less.

After we were officially introduced to the school, I joined the Gryffindor table and was almost immediately greeted by none other than the Marauders...minus Peter, Thank the Lord....It seems that Sirius likes to flirt with....ALL the girls....including me...let me try to get there introduction of themselves correctly....Sirius introduced himself as "The most wanted man ever", James introduced himself as "Prankster extrordinair" and then Remus just introduced himself and apologized for his friends. I insulted Sirius and James's egos..and the two were shocked that I didn't fall for their charms....After about 20 minutes, we became pretty good friends, they kinda reminded me of the Twins, Fred and George...It was fun. Then I had to act like the newbie and have them show me to the Gryffindor common room....Did I mention that Sirius kissed my hand when he introduced himself AND when we got to the Fat Lady's portrait?...The second time I stated that he must really like hands and walked off....I overheard James and Remus ask if he preferred boy hands or girl hands...Throughout the time we all spent together...I think they noticed I wasn't the happiest of the bunch, no matter how much I acted like it. But whenever they asked what was wrong, I just smiled and brushed off the question....After all I couldn't just say, "Oh I just can't believe I am seeing all of you so happy, you see I'm from the future and in the future one of you is dead, another a wanted criminal, and the last a lonely outcast of society"....Can I?

I can't really explain it...But when I was with those three...I really did forget at times...my past...and my real purpose for being here....Its just that...when I was with them...I felt at home....Strange huh?

As you may remember...I gave up playing Quidditch on a team because it reminded me to much of Kevin...Well one day I went down to the Pitch alone and took to the sky....pretending I was in a match like I used to....Thats where Remus, Sirius, and James found me....They were amazed...and wanted me to join the Gryffindor team....I refused.....even when they begged to know why....I think....to them...I was a mystery that they couldn't solve....and my refusal to play on the team....just created more questions that I could not answer.....

A big problem presented itself when I found out that Riddle was a student teacher for Defense Against the Dark Arts...I kinda refused to learn from him...AND got Sirius to join my rebellion...he didn't even know what we were refusing...but Oh Well! After my refusal, Dumbledore decided to continue the lesson...and guess what? Riddle actually thought that I needed HELP from HIM! CAN YOU BELIEVE THAT!...Then for some odd reason he revealed that he was jealous of some guy that Lilac was with...now THAT was funny! I laughed like crazy! Soon after that, I found out that Lilac ALSO refused to learn from Riddle...and we both had to go to Bonding Lessons with him...yes I DID say Bonding Lessons.....Fortunately for me, I am a good actress and tricked everyone into believing that I was fine with Evil Grandpa..and I was freed from the bonding lessons...Unfortunately for Lilac, she didn't catch on and had to continue with them.

After I received my new freedom...I had to deal with a little...surprise...Sirius asked me on a date....Now if any of you know anything about the the famous Sirius Black when he was in school, he had NEVER been rejected by a girl...it just so happens that I was the first....After all, I couldn't date him...I couldn't love him...i swore it on Kevin's blood....Let's just say...he didn't take it well. Afterwards, Lily, who became my best friend in that time, asked me what was wrong...I told her some of my past...but not all...She understood why I couldn't date him...But at the same time she didn't understand at all...

That night I was wondering the grounds in my fox form...I'm an animagus if you didn't know ...and I saw Sirius...he didn't know it was me...and started talking...that night I found out that I wasn't just another girl to him....he actually cared about me...maybe even loved me....my guilt grew...but what could I do?....he would hate me if he found out that I was the granddaughter of the soon to be Dark Lord....that I was part vampire....and from the future....not to mention the half-sister of his future daughter!....I didn't know what to do...

The next day.....I....found outsome disturbing news from Lilac......Lucius Malfoy....wants to...get in my pants!!!!! EWWWWWWWWWWWW.....That was VERY disturbing...I almost barfed....but I also found out that Lilac made Madam Promfey think that Tom raped her....I laughed at that one....Then after Lilac ran off....Sirius came and went all emotional, proclaiming his love for me ad saying that he would love me forever, no matter what....I started to cry...I guess it was to much for me to handle...I tried to tell him that we couldn't be together...and when he tried to kiss me...Peter ran into the room!....Ever grow fangs? I DO!...Yup...why? I didn't know at the time, but when Peter came into the room...The fangs of my Vampire ancestors grew....and I ran out of the room, hearing Sirius yell at Peter....

After seeing the fangs and leaving the room, I did the only thing I could think of....I went to the library and did some research...Did you know that people with vampire ancestry, though normally don't show vampiric characteristics, WILL if a traitor is nearby?....Yup it seems that any person with with vampire ancestry will grow fangs and experience blood lust every time a traitor is in the same room....Though during the first time this happens, there may not be any blood lust, the blood lust will grow every time it happens and if said vampire descendant EVER succumbs to the blood lust...that person will completely change into a vampire FOREVER....THAT got me....it definitely put a downer on my day...

When I went to inform Lilac about my....problem....I found her in her...box....again....And she told me that Mind Tom was trying to make her make out with...real Tom.....odd I know...When I told her what happened...she wasn't happy.....who would be really?

That night as I sat near the Lake....I had an idea....There were too many questions....it was time to get some answers....Well sorry but I got to leave you hanging...I think that is a lot to take in. I may continue later on today...but you may have to wait. What was my decision?....You're in for a BIG surprise!

-Saphire.A.R.P.D

BIG MESS UP

I left off with Lilac and I being stuck in our twelve year old bodies and having to relive our lives at Hogwarts, beginning with our second year...but that was the least of our problems. Ever try convincing your adopted grandpa that you are you...accept you are your 17 year old self trapped in your twelve year old self's body...when you are SUPPOSED to BE twelve!?!?!...Yeah, I didn't think so. Let me tell you, it isn't easy! Thankfully, I had a vial of both mine and Grandpa's memories of the war...and our times together as a family or he NEVER would have believed me! How I got those memories?....Well you find out A LOT of interesting things when you have had the ENTIRE Hogwarts library at you disposal 24/7 since you were three.

We went through our second year normally. We focused on our lessons that we had already learned, while Harry, Hermione and Ron went to do their thing with Fluffy, the mirror, the stone and the evil Professor that shared the back of his head with my evil, deranged Grandpa...It all changed the next year.

In our third year, Lilac just HAD to run into Harry and mess up the time line....or if you want to get technical...she COMBINED the two timelines that we knew...stupid flashing lights...So now instead of a normal year of people getting petrified by a giant snake roaming through the school's pipe system, we had that AND an escaped criminal who was actually innocent! We knew that Harry had to meet Sirius....but FIRST we had to keep Sirius ALIVE. So I sent my fox Schitz to help Sirius. Later that year, Harry was off doing what he should be doing in his THIRD year, not his SECOND....and Lilac and I were in the Chamber of Secrets. Younger evil grandpa seemed to know Lilac and at the time we didn't know why...so while dear old grandpa flirted with Lilac and put her in a trance, I yes ME and ME ALONE handled TWO basilisks at once and eventually killed them. While this was happening those two were kissing and evil grandpa was turning Lilac into partly vampire/horocrux....before anyone asks...yes my evil grandpa Tom Marvolo Riddle, the Dark Lord Voldemort, is in fact half vampire...and I am a quarter vampire....plus quite a bit of other things...but that will come in later.

Later that same day, I woke up in the hospital wing and heard everyone talking about Lilac, who was asleep at the moment. It seems she had become a Horocrux.....but at the time I didn't understand...they wouldn't tell me...so I lost my temper...something I still regret. You see when I lose my temper, I lose control over my elements...Kevin had heard that I was in the Hospital Wing and had come to visit me....good grandpa had made a shield around everyone in the room to protect them...but Kevin...Kevin came into the room at the last moment...and was killed...I killed him again...It was on that day that I swore NEVER to fall in love again....I swore with his blood....I believed that anyone I fell in love with...would only meet the same fate as Kevin.

In our fourth year, Dumbledore decided that I would be put in Gryffindor and Lilac would be put in Slytherin...we knew it would happen....but like everything else it happened sooner....Lilac went crazy and locked herself in a rock box using her earth element....while I suffered silently....Sirius found and comforted me. After that I became friends with Fred and George...we were quite the pranksters...oh yeah...I didn't tell you did I? I was one of the best pranksters known. While me and the twins were becoming friends, Lilac was busy stealing Snape's cake and driving all of the teachers nuts.....Slowly throughout the year...I began to have feelings for Fred...he loved me...I knew that clearly enough....but I couldn't find it in my heart to love HIM....Lilac fell for a guy named Bubbles....I didn't trust him...He didn't go to Hogwarts in our old lives....where did he come from? That year the Yule Ball and Triwizards Tournament were hosted....Lilac went with Bubble to the Yule Ball...George went with Lilac's other self "Trista"...and I went with Fred...At first it was a nice night until Voldemort came...then another Voldemort came....and yeah....I still had my timeturner...we said goodbye to another time....though Lilac came by force....I HAD NO CHOICE! SHE WAS GONNA KILL HERSELF!!!!

Well...Voldemort from our old time saw what I was doing and tried to stop us....he threw a curse...it hit the timeturner....and we ended up in the marauders era.....yeah shocking huh? It gets REALLY confusing after this....so prepare yourself.

Saphire.A.R.D.

First Ending...First Disappearance

As you all know the story that Lilac and I are telling is one that you are all unfamiliar with. Well There are stories that you all don't know. This is only one. That one day where mine and Lilac's paths crossed....changed EVERYTHING.

At first it was a normal day, I had gone to Flourish and Blotts to get some new books because unfortunately...I had read all of mine. I had been looking at the Defense Against the Dark Arts Section, when I first saw her. Though I didn't like it, we were enemies and on different sides of the law. I made my move and held my wand up against her neck. We talked a bit...well more like threatened eachother...but we came to an understanding and I agreed to help her....and boy was I in for a shock. I had no idea just how much this would cost me. In a few short minutes I lost my job, the respect of my peers, and free connection with my family. Thankfully, Uncle Aberforth understood that I had to do this and accepted...even though we would be enemies. He gave us a head start as final gift to me, his niece.

We were in a panic and Lilac was still shocked that I had agreed to help her. We quickly ran to Hell in a Handbasket and found Harry....singing....about his love for...Lilac...it was odd, but there wasn't much time to think. I quickly grabbed them both, told them what to envision and apparated to my hideout.

When we got there, we debated....or...argued to be more precise...about what to do. While Lilac and I did that...Harry smelled his....feet...don't ask. But then the two idiots thought that it would be safe to go for a walk outside.... down a dark alley and OF COURSE we were found and captured. Lord Moldybutt then came down to the dungeons to threaten and/or mock us. Then Harry in his crazy state told the dark lord to stand on his head and blow bubbles...which was hilarious despite our "we're gonna die" situation.

We waited for a bit and were then dragged outside to face Voldemort. Now if you have read Lilac's blog you know that she tried to save Harry, kissed him, broke the spell the Voldemort put on him and then Voldemort killed him. Where was I during this? I was fighting off ten full grown deatheaters....and my fire was burning them. After Harry was killed, we were once again thrown into the dark, smelly, wet dungeon to await our fate. Then when Lilac came my "cage"...how she got out...I don't want to know, James...my once minion came freed me and took her to Azkaban.

After I discovered her location, I used my reinstated position to get into past the dementors and found Lilac....curled up in a ball...rocking back and forth....screaming "HARRY....nope-nope-nope..." every five minutes. I tried getting her attention, but nothing would work, so I threw fire at her feet. Enough said..she screamed and finally noticed me. I told her that we could save Harry, my grandfather, Sirius...everyone, if she came with me, as pulled out my timeturner....that nobody really knew I had..... As I was turning it back, James popped out of nowhere and tried to stop us...I slapped him leaving a hand print shaped burn on his face...he deserved it. Then he just HAD to spray a jet of water at us! He messed us the timeturner...and we landed on Hogwarts grounds....in twelve year old bodies.....yup we had to go through school....again!

Now I know what everyone is thinking..THEY MESSED UP BIG TIME!...and you would be right...the good news...KEVIN WAS STILL ALIVE!AND GRANDPA DUMBLEDORE! AND HARRY! AND SIRIUS! We could start over and save everyone!

Now I'm gonna let you take it all in, but remember...I told you that there were TWO stories before the one you know so well.

Saphire.A.R.D.

The Beginning

Since Lilac is telling her story, I thought should tell mine. The story of a girl who lost one life to gain another. Just like there is Lilac and Echo....There is Saphire and Radar....and like Lilac, I sometimes manage Radar's blog. Except I don't drive Radar crazy like Lilac does Echo.

As Lilac stated on her blog, my full name is Saphire Anna Riddle Percival Dumbledore Black....though the last part is for another time. My parents are dead...I saw them die with my own eyes, while I was hidden away in a secret room. Though it is true that Lilac and I are sisters...we share only our mother's blood....our fathers are quite different. Her's a Gryffindor...mine a Slytherin. Our mother...a Ravenclaw, Ravenclaw's heir in fact.

The night my father and our mother were killed was the night I learned what death truly was. Shortly after I saw them die at the hands of Voldemort, Albus Dumbledore came and found me curled up on the ground sleeping...with tear-stained cheeks. He took me to Hogwarts...where he discovered just how much knowledge my three year old self possessed. He found out that I saw my parents die...that I knew that they weren't coming back...because I was able to see exactly what pulled the carriages of Hogwarts. It was there at the school...that I grew to the person I am today.

Even at the young age of three, I was known as a genius....I truly was my mother's daughter, but I didn't go to either one of the houses my parents went to. Instead of Ravenclaw or Slytherin, I went to Gryffindor. As Dumbledore's adopted granddaughter, nobody was really surprised. In that first year of officially attending Hogwarts as a student....I saw just how different I was from the other students. I had already mastered the basic spells, where they had just begun to touch the surface of their magic. If it hadn't been for my friend Kevin....I don't know if I could have made it through that first year.

In my second year, Quidditch became my life. I was one of the best on the team. Both Kevin and I were chasers. Together nobody could beat us.
My third year was one of my happiest. Kevin asked my to be his girlfriend and I accepted. I loved him with all my heart. Everything was perfect....but that all changed in my fourth year, when my life began a downward spiral.

When we entered my fourth year, everything was fine, but that year I joined the Order and was keeping an eye on the movements of Sirius Black. Kevin got jealous. He thought I was getting to interested in the known criminal...We had a fight and my emotions hit their peak. At the time, I didn't know that I controlled both fire AND air. I had mastered fire...so I thought it was no longer a danger...boy was I wrong. Both elements raged out of control..and Kevin was killed. I was devastated and never again entered a relationship. After that, I dove into my studies and quit the Quidditch team...but I did play on my own during the summers.

I graduated top of my class and soon rose up to be Head of the Aurors. I was only 17, yet I was the best and put in charge of men and women old enough to be my grandparents. Strange, I know, but they listened to me without question. It took awhile, but I gained their respect. Though some...still showed rebellion, I kept them in line.

Bet you're wondering why the Chasers that Harry knew weren't me and Kevin...well like Lilac said...there IS a reason. Its because none of this ever happened...well it did...but only me and Lilac lived it...understand?...yeah though not...Just read on and you will in time.

I had known Lilac in passing at school, but we never really talked. To me...she never seemed liked the bad type. So when I saw her on the WANTED list, I was surprised....especially when it said that she made Harry insane.

Well that's my story of before mine and Lilac paths intertwined. I'll tell you more another time. But remember...even though that from here on, me and Lilac are together...we've had different experiences....and different views.

Goodbye for now,
