"Well tonight was eventful." said Anne as we laid down to go to sleep. Percy had come to the Burrow along with Rufus Scrimgeour and it ended with a mashed potato food war. 

We came back home and tiredly went to sleep. Anne and I were sharing a bed (it was big enough) and Sirius made Terrance sleep on the floor with a mattress. It was not bad really. 

"Fair warning. I might kick you in my sleep." said Anne. "It's fine. I'll kick you back." I smiled sweetly. 

"Well I can stretch and do whatever I want. I'm alone." Terrance said making himself comfortable. 

In some time, Terrance slept. "Anne." I whispered. "Anne!" I whispered again. She slowly got up and rubbed her eyes. "What?" she said in a raspy voice. 

"I'm sneaking into Grimmauld Place tomorrow. I need your help with excuses."

"Why?" she askes sleepily. 

"I need to search for some book or something to catch up with Walburga. Grimmauld has a bunch of books." I whispered. 

"So... what's the plan?" 

I thought for a while. "So just tell Sirius that I went to meet Felicia Bones."

"Felicia Bones really?"

"What. I'll ask him. Just hype me up and stuff. I'll be back in an hour or two." 

"Fine." she sighed. "Can I sleep now?"

"Yeah. Sorry." I replied and went back to sleep. 

-----

"So you're meeting up with a friend of yours called Felicia Bones?" Sirius asked. 

"Yes. I'll be back in and hour or two I promise."

"Where are you guys meeting?"

"A restaurant near her house." I lied again. 

"Tell me the name come on."

"Old Granny's Diner...."

"It's a one hour trip from here." 

"Yes! I know.. I- I'll apparate." I said. 

"Whatever you say. Just be back in time." 

"Thank you!" I said giving him a hug. 

I told Anne to stay back incase something happened. If Walburga black could fake her own death and not even the death eaters suspected it until last year, she was good at this game. I knew that I was getting into danger. But if I didn't act soon, I would be the danger. 

I went inside and rushed to the library. There was no one inside. I went to the library and got out some books that I thought might be informative. I read them but nothing helped. I read about 10 books and didn't notice time flying. I found more books (and there were no more related to what I wanted) and I finally founded something that could help. 

It was a potion to attract things. Things that were further away so an Accio wouldn't help. I quickly noted it down and looked at my watch. Shoot. It was already more than 3 hours. I hurriedly put the  books back and got out the library. 

I shouldn't have thought that Sirius would be my only problem. "Oh Cassie Smith..... Did you really think it was going to be that easy?" she snickered. 

"Oh hello Walburga Black. Welcome back home?" I said trying to be cool. But on the inside I was shaking. 

"Let's make this easy for the both of us. Come with me. Spill the beans. And you can go back home."

"I hate beans.." 

"I'll count to 3..." she sang.

"I'm not five years old."

"I see why Sirius likes you. Let's make this hard then." she clapped her hands twice. The main door opened and two people in hoods came in a with a struggling Anne in between them. 

My eyes widened. "Leave her out of this. This is between us."

"Well you should've thought of that before you told her everything." she emphasized the last word. 

"She doesn't know everything."

She went over to Anne and placed her wand at Anne's temple. "What about telling now?"

"Leave her. And I'll tell."

"You're no place to negotiate."

"What do you want to know?"

"One. How to get Sirius. Two. About the future so that I can tell to my lord."

"Voldemort?"

"You keep his name out of your foul mouth!" she screamed. "And yes. Him." she said calmy. This woman was indeed scary. 

"I don't know." I said shakingly. 

"Well then." she said and cast spell at Anne which made her squeal.

"Anne!"

"That was just the starting. Would you like to tell us?"

I looked at Anne and then at Walburga. A single tear came out my eyes, and I shook my head. "Wrong Answer." she said coolly and Anne screamed once more but the spell went on for longer. 

"Stop! Fine! I'll tell you." I said loudly. 

"Ok."

"Cass no." said Anne. 

"But I want those two to leave." I pointed at the two men. 

"Fine." she agreed and the two left Grimmauld Place. 

"Cass....." warned Anne. 

"Come closer." I urged Walburga. 

"What?" she asked.

"I don't want Anne to hear the future stuff."

She rolled her eyes and came closer; our faces just 5 inches apart. "The future" I sighed. "is good." I continued. "You know who um..." I gulped. "Death eaters have knee problems."    

"What?" she asked and in that split of the second I kicked at her knee and then punched her nose. She fell over as I grabbed her wand and then broke it into two and chucked it across the room. I grabbed Anne and dashed out from the house and ran across the street. 

"That was cool." said Anne trying to ease the situation. "I studied Karate for half a year. Wasn't really my thing though." I said and Anne smiled. 

"Are you okay?" I asked as I grabbed her face and turned it from side to side checking for injuries. I ran my hand over her forehead which had a small cut. "Where's this from?"

"I tried fighting off those two guys. Didn't really work."

"Are you good though?" I asked. 

"Yeah.."

"How did they even get you?!" I asked.

"You were late and Sirius got worried. So he decided to go to the diner. I volunteered to go instead and came here. Those two got me from the opposite side of the road... And here I am." she explained. 

"Well then let's get back home." I said and we went behind a tree so that we could apparate without anyone seeing us. 

"I can't... It's weak." Anne sighed. 

"We'll do side along."

"You sure?" she asked.

"Yeah... I worked on it and now I'm good at apparating."

---

"Where were the hell where you both?!" an angry Sirius and a worried Remus greeted us at the door. 

"You know where we were...." I said smiling and tried to go inside. 

"You both weren't at the diner and I know that." Sirius said. 

"We were.... Anne picked me up and we came together."

"You really think I believe that you were talking to that girl for 4 hours!" 

"Yeah.... She's umm-" I started. 

"She's very talkative." continued Anne. 

"Ya. Thank godric that Anne came. I was starting to get bored." I lied.

"If you were talking why does Anne look busted?" asked Sirius.

"Let the kids come inside first padfoot." said Remus.

"Not until they answer my questions." said Sirius. Terrance also came to the door to see what was happening. 

We both looked at each other and I said a very idiotic answer that I later regretted saying because Anne was giving me a death glare the whole day. "Anne and Felberta-"

"Felberta? I thought it was-" started Sirius. 

"I mean... Um.... Felcia. Anne and Felicia got into a fight. Anne really hates her with a burning passion."

"And Anne beat up this girl?" asked Remus confused. 

"Ya." I said in a matter-of-fact way. 

"I don't believe you two yet." said Sirius. 

"Let them inside Sirius." said Remus and dragged him from the door. I heard them two bickering while they went to the hall. 

"So... where were you two?" asked Terrance in a quiet voice. 

"A little adventure." said Anne. 

"I have something that may reduce the scaring." Said Terrance pointing at Anne's head. 

----

"How did Siri know that we weren't at the diner?" I asked Terrance as I sat down on my bed. 

"When Anne didn't return in like 20 minutes, he went to the diner. He didn't find you guys, so he came back home and started going all crazy. Good thing you guys came now."

"Why?" asked Anne as she dabbed the potion that he gave her. 

"He was about to alert the order... Just tell me too next time you guys go on your 'adventure' ya?"

"Okay." I said. 

----- 

Terrance left at night back to his Wizengamot School. And that left just me and Anne in the room. 

"So you got anything that can help?" asked Anne. 

"I did. But then I lost it there. Can't get it back anytime soon."

Anne sighed. "What do we do now? Any plan B?"

"I do remember some ingredients. Maybe I can make my own potion? I'm good at it." I laid on my back on the bed and stared at the ceiling.

"I don't doubt your capabilities Cass. But what if it goes wrong? What if- if you're attracting potion turns into a repelling one. Or you get forever attached to Walburga Black?" asked Anne as she came and sat next to me. 

"Well then.. The only way to know if Plan B is right or wrong, is by doing it."

"I'll help you. Just promise me you'll be safe."

"I can't promise. But I'll try." 

"Well then promise that you'll inform me whatever. Don't be all 'it's dangerous and I can't tell you'. "

"Okay. I'll tell you when things go wrong k?"

"I need you to be here for a very long time. Don't jump into danger."

"I'll try not to die soon." I laughed while she smirked. 

Suddenly I felt someone trying to enter my mind. "What happened?" asked Anne. But she was soon muffled out. There was Voldemort and Bellatrix in the room. A man. No- a boy. About my age stood in front of Voldemort. He got marked and the two familiar people left the room. Leaving the boy alone in the room to deal with the pain of black ink burning into the skin. 

I snapped out. "Cass? What is it?"

"Nothing. Just tired."

Who was the boy? Who entered my mind? And why show me?
