Days kept passing, and Amelia missed the sight of twins, although she couldnt remember the last conversation they had, but their sight was enough to lighten her mood.

Besides all this she could see Harry was irritatingly worried all the time. She didnt care at all, but still she wad a bit curious because she knew the matter concerned her father.

That day when Harry and Hermione returned after taking Umbridge to the forest, the headmistress of Hogwarts never returned. Some say that she was saved by Dumbledore who found her in a herd of Centaurs and maybe currently she stays in St. Mungos, insane.

Amelia sat outside in the field as it was nearly dusk watching the orange sky, alone. She hated to be alone, and never knew that will be the only thing she will be left with.

In the last few days her mother was really mad and worried at something, she said she sensed danger, but was frustrated with herself that she could not comprehend what was it. Amelia let her be, thinking it was the best she could do. Laying there she didnt realise when she fell asleep.

"You seriously need to stop pulling me into sleep anytime you wantโ€“ my sleep schedule is really disturbedโ€“"

"Stop Harry."

"What?โ€“ is he going to jump off a cliffโ€“ then sorry I wont stop himโ€“"

"I said stop him Amelia or something really bad will happened" Sierra interrupted her harshly. Amelia clenched her jaw stepping closer to her mother.

"I am not stoping him, he can risk his life all he wantsโ€“"

"Its not about his life Amelia!" Sierra exclaimed desperately screwing her eyes shut. "Its about my life, your father's life, your life... Stop him"

"Either you tell me everything clearly or leave it" Amelia hissed turning away. She had been dealing with all those mysterious things her mother has been saying lately, and was just so confused because nothing made sense.

"Listen Amelia, I dont care about my life, but if anything happens to you, I will never forgive myself or this world, so just run and stop Harry from doing whatever stupidity he is about to do" Sierra said urgently, her tone and words made Amelia even more worried.

And in an instance Amelia was again engulfed by a bright light bringing her out of her mind where her mother resided since years. Amelia stood up frowning not knowing what is she suppossed to do. She had no choice but to run to the chosen one and check what idiot act he had planned now.

She ran straight to the place where she found all the idiots with Luna.

They all fell silent on seeing her panting hotly, her eyes fixated on a slightly scared Harry. She clenched her jaw storming closer to him clutching to his collars harshly making others gasp.

"What are you on about? What other stupidity are you going to do now?" She hissed making him stare at her in fear.

"He- Heโ€“" Ron stuttered terrified standing behind Harry before being harshly interrupted.

"Not you Ronald! This idiot will answerโ€“ tell me what are you planning on?" She hissed to the bespectacled boy in rage. Harry's breath hitched as he saw a slight color change in her eyes. They turned red for a brief moment.

"I-I am having visions lately a-about S-Sirius being tortured by Voldermort in the department of ministry, I went to the grimmauld place and Sirius was not there, he is at the department of ministry" Harry explained everything in fear staring at the girl who was still fuming in rage.

"Whatever you are saying is nonsense. Just listen to me and sit quietely in your room, you are not allowed to do anything" Amelia said in deadly calm voice releasing her hold on him.

"What are youโ€“"

"I SAID GO TO YOUR ROOM AND SLEEP" She roared at the boy making him step back in fear.

"Amelia its your father, even though you dont care about himโ€“" Harry was interrupted by a really harsh glare from Amelia but continued quitely "I cant let anything happen to him, he is the only family I've got"

Amelia inhaled sharply ignoring the puppy dog eyes from the boy "Listen Harry, I know you deeply love your godfather and vice versa, but he stays fine as long as you dont do anything" 

Suddenly Harry started yelping clutching to the scar on his forehead, everyone stared at him worried, he panted and hissed for few minutes falling to the floor. "Please, Sirius is in danger, he is being tortured, we need to go" He cried desperately.

"How do you think we are going to the department of ministry it is in London" Ron exclaimed.

"We'll fly ofcourse" Everyone turned to Luna. And I thought atleast she was sane among them.

***

"What exactly are we going to sit on?" Ron asked looking around.

"Thestrals" Amelia, Harry and Luna said in chorused, Amelia shortly passing Harry a glare.

"They are dangerous, you know that" Hermione said warily.

"Oh sit on it" Amelia grumpled plopping herself on the figure with many others and flew in the sky reaching the department of ministry. Harry Led everyone inside the large building secretly.

You were suppossed to stop all of this!

Amelia froze being reminded again, yes she was suppossed to stop all of them from doing this stupidity but she ended up accompanying them. Harry halted seeing her frozen, and reached out to pull her by hand.

"You are not allowed to hold my hand"

"Why? only Fred is?"

"Now is not the time Harry"

"Thanks Ronald"

Amelia marched in front yanking her wrist our of Harry's hold. The place was dim and deserted. No one was there. "Not even a squib is here, and you were saying  your godfather and Voldermort are here. Where are they? Gone to have tea together in the canteen?

"They are here! I know"  Harry cried desperately.

"I am telling you Potter, lets go back, here's nothing" Amelia hissed to him.

"I think I see somthing there" Harry whispered his gaze fixated in front of him and he went forward slowly, Amelia shook her hand irritated suddenly coming to a halt when her eyes fell on a glowing globe and letters appearing on it. She slowly approached it frowning and read it.

โ Born in the last month with the snowfall marking her arrival; Born to bring the dead back or lost found; Born to help the right side conquer over evilโ€“โž


Yes! its about you! Read it Amelia!

Thats what I was doing. She thought to herself deadpanned going back to reading.

โ โ€”She will save her family everytime by sacrificing the dearest things; the one born in the seventh month will make her live once again by bringing joy. โž

Quick explanation Mum!

You were born when it was snowing were heavilyโ€“

"What are you both doing!?" Hermione exclaimed annoyed gaining their attention.

Amelia saw Harry pick up a globe, he too might be seeing something like she did. But something kind of changed in the surrounding as he picked his globe up.

"Harry!" Hermione called looking in front of her and everyone saw a dark masked figure approaching.

"Where's Sirius?" Harry asked sharply looking at the approaching figure. The mask dissolved revealing the face of the person.. Lucius Malfoy!

Amelia gasped gaining the attention of the man with cold eyes and disgust looked down at her "I expected better from you Ms. Black, its better if you leave right now" He said in his cold voice, his eyes momentarily falling to the emerald necklace in her neck.

"I would rather stay" Amelia said matching his tone. Lucius let out an irritated breath amd turned back to Harry.

"Hand me the prophecy Potter, its no use to youโ€“"

"Harry. Dont." Amelia interrupted the man sharply turning to Harry, who nodded. Everyone flinched on hearing a loud shrieking laughter which caused chills to run down their spined.

A wild looking lady dressed in all black, her long curly hair messily sprawled, and her face screamed insanity. "Itty Bitty Baby.. Pottah"

"Oh look at her.. Amelia Black" the woman gasped in surprise eyeing Amelia up and down and exchange smirking glances with Lucius.

"Come here dearie, you are in the wrong place" The woman cooed in her sickly insane voice, Amelia stayed glued to her spot glaring the the duo. "What? I am family"

"Who are you?" Amelia hissed glaring at her.

"Bellatirx Lestrange" Neville stepped forward taking the name of the woman in a venom laced tone.

"Neville Longbottom is it? How's Mum and dad?" The woman mocked.

"Better, they are about to get avengedโ€“" Neville hissed before being interrupted and stopped.

"Lets calm down shall we? All we need is the prophecy Potter, than you can take your friends and leave" Lucius said trying to calm the situation but his tone was clearly evil and desperate. Harry stayed put.

"What happened Potter? Dont you want to know about the story behind your scar, I can show you everything" Lucius said holding his hand out.

"I have waited for fourteen years" Harry spoke up startling everyone.

"I know" Lucius agreed immediately.

"I guess I can wait a little longerโ€“ STUPIFY" Everyone yelled at the same time sending Lucius and Bellatrix flying back. Everyone ran from their spots in diffrent direction only to see more masked figures arising.

"Petrify Totalus" Amelia yelled as a masked man tried to fly in her direction.

"From here Amelia!" Amelia heard Hermione yell jer name and was pointing at the place to exit.

"Confrigo" Amelia yelled at the figures flying behind her at full speed.

"Stupโ€“" Bellatrix yelled in Amelia's direction but was interrupted by Lucius. "NOT HER! NO ONE WILL DO ANYTHING TO HERโ€“ SHE SHOULD BE CAUGHT SAFELY"

Amelia's heart beat was on a marathon. Everything was happening so fast, no one could comprehend what was happening eventually they all managed to fall out of a big door screaming loudly and stopped in air, floating just before hitting the ground harshly.

They stood up slowly seeing they were at a different place a large black curtain with a frame hanging in front on a height.

"Can you hear the voice?" Harry asked stepping towards the large curtain. Amelia didnt know how to react because all she could hear was her mother's whispers which she heard probably all the time.

"There are no voices Harry" Hermione said comfused frowning.

"Dont worry, I hear them too" Lua said agreeing. But suddenly something in the air changed.

"Come behind me!" Harry yelled as every gathered behind him and storms of black smoke collided with them harshly. The next thing Amelia knew she was caught in a very tight grip and looking up she saw she was in the hands of Bellatrix Lestrange who was grinning mischeviously down at her.

"Give me the prophecy Potter, thats the only way you can save your friends" Lucius Malfoy said coldly stepping towards Harry.

"Harry Dont!" Amelia shrieked and instantly felt harsh poking in her neck by the wand of the woman sneering down at her.

"We are not allowed to hurt you dearie, so stay shut, or I might lose it" Bellatrix hissed pulling her hair harshly to make her look at her in eyes.

"Dontโ€“ dont do anything to her!" Harry yelled worried.

"So give us Prophecy Potter" Lucius said smirking holding his hand out. Harry turned his face to look at Amelia who was tightly grasped by neck but still shook her head  vigorously feeling her neck go numb.

Everyone stared wide eyed as Harry started handing the globe in his hand to Lucius Malfoy. A dark chuckle left Lucius' throat with other deatheaters as Lucius held the Prophecy high. But Amelia's breath hitched as a bright mist of light appeared behind Lucius and in a snap, there was a figure standing there.

Sirius Black

Amelia gasped which caused Lucius to turn around and instantly received a punch on the face. "Get away from my godson"

I hate you.

Several silver mists appeared out of nowhere and snatched the kids away from the deatheater's grip, Amelia looked up as two strong arms pulled her away from Bellatrix's grip and saw it was her godfather.

"Remus!" Amelia couldnt helped but smile like an idiot seeing her godfather came to the rescue, he looked down at her with pure worry. "Go hide Amelia"

But she just couldnt hide somewhere, everything was happening so quick, She was pushed on the floor harshly by god knows who, dueling carried on, who was fighting with whom wasnt understandable at all, they just faught and knew they were badly injured.

Amelia where's Sirius!?

Amelia froze and jerked around where the hell her father was and found him standing on the stone dueling along with Harry by his side. Bellatrix Lestrange was maniacally flying everywhere laughing scarily, but Amelia saw as the wierd woman stopped at a distance from her father with her wand pointed out and Sirius was busy duelling with Lucius.

Amelia widened her eyes, sensing what was about to happen, her breathing simply stopped, the only thing that came to her mind was to run in his direction and so she did with all the strength she had.

"Stupify!" Harry yelled sending Lucius Malfoy flying backwards.

"Nice one James!" Sirius said laughing triumphantly complementing his godson not seeing his own daughter was coming running at full speed towards him, a bitter look stricked Amelia as Sirius was still looking at his godson lovingly.

"Avada Kedavra" The wild woman shouted and just then Amelia managed to push her father away stepping in front of him letting the green stream of light hitting her chest.

"AMELIA!"

Amelia gasped for air feeling immense pain in her chest and knew she was being held by someone from behind as her knees gave up and she collapsed on floor. Her eyes fell on her godfather who stood at a distance frozen, all the color draining out of his face. Everything went silent, loud gasps from all the deatheaters filled the place.

A painful stinging feeling on chest caused tears to prick in her eyes and looking above her she saw she was being held by her father who looked totally disbelieved on what just happened.

"I-I still hate you" that was all that left her mouth as a tear slipped out the corner of her eye which were locked with her father's, and the eye contact was broken when her eyes started closing slowly.

"NO!"
