Hogwarts, Sixth Year, February 1978

What if I told you that when I was two years old, I showed my first signs of magic. I accidentally turned my sister's hair green when she stole my favourite doll. My parents got so scared that Professor Dumbledore had to tell them then that I was different, that I was special. They got scared of what the neighbours would say if they ever found out so they decided to give me up. Of course, I found all of this out when I tracked them down at the age of fifteen. For a long time, I waited and wondered in an orphanage of where I would go, or if a family would adopt me. When I was six years old my wish came true, I was taken in by a wonderful family with a dad, mum and brother. For the first time that I could remember, I had a family that was all mine and mine to keep.

But you're probably wondering why I'm telling you all this, well it's so you can help me I guess. For the first time since I joined the family I was scared of my Brother. Let me take you back to the day when Orion Black and his new wife Melissa adopted me.

London Orphanage for Girls, 1967

"Lily, there is a family here asking to speak with you," Mrs Mayer told me. She had always liked me; I had been here four years, after about the second year you make a special bond. I looked at her tilting my head to the side. She had to be joking. Families took one look at my record and chucked it aside. I had come to accept that I was never going to be adopted.

"You're joking?" I asked out of surprise. She shook her head smiling before laughing lightly as I stood up running to my draws. I began to pull out clothes till I found my interview dress. We didn't have much at the orphanage but we had two dresses for interviews and church on Sundays.

"Room number four sweetie, good luck," Mrs Mayer told me walking to the end of the hall with me.

I nervously opened the door to find a man, woman and young boy sitting at the table. My hands started to shake as the woman looked from the young boy to me when she heard the door.

"You must be Lily," she said getting up, moving around the table to hug me. I just stood there, not moving my arms at my side. She let go of me but held my shoulders at arm's length her eyes looking up and down, "You look a bit thin but no worries," The young boy just looked at me. Our eyes locked for a second and I immediately saw the look of mischief in his eyes.

"Hello Lily, my name is Orion Black. This is my wife Melissa and my son Sirius. We have been told so much about you and if you will let us we would like to adopt you," I stared at Mr Black. He couldn't be serious.

"Uh," was all I could say. I shook my head before opening my mouth again, "You are sure I'm the right Lily yes? Because there is a girl Lily Carter here, you could have –"

"Nope you're the one and only sweetheart," Mrs Black said to me, still holding my shoulders, "Would you like to come and live with us?" I looked at all three of the Black family sitting in this roomy eyes resting on Sirius, he had been awfully quiet. Mr and Mrs Black followed my gaze to settle on their son.

"Do you want a new sister?" I asked him. I almost wanted him to say no. I didn't know how to be a daughter, or a sister. I could be a friend, someone to talk to but never been in a family before. But then again, I wanted a family so badly and I had been waiting, wishing for one to adopt me.

"Of course I want another sibling, I can't wait to have someone to prank with," the young boy, Sirius I think, said to me. His face broke into a grin as he rushed around the table and picked me up in a bear hug. I smiled and hugged him back, "Plus we will be in the same year at Hogwarts, it's going to fantastic!"

"Well then it's settled, welcome to the Black family Lily," Mr Black, well Dad now I guess, told me.

So you can see my problem. I don't think there is a sister in the whole of Hogwarts who has a more protective brother then I do and when Sirius Black finds out that his little sister Lily Black (that's me by the way), is dating someone that boy most likely won't live. Now when that boy that is dating Lily Black is Sirius Black's best friend, well you can imagine the blood bath.
