I walk into the Trophey room and look around.
I knew what I was looking for.
The quidditch awards.
Here.
The quidditch cup winners from some 20 years previously.
Gryffindor.
Keeper - Josh Miller
Chasers - Hannah Smith...
Captain - Hannah Smith
My parents.
I was going to make them proud.
I was going to captain the team to victory just like mum had, I was going to be the winning keeper just like dad was.
Even if wherever they were now they couldn't see me, I'd still make them proud.
I walk along, scanning the quidditch awards again.
Two years previously, there.
Chaser - Nathan Miller
Captain - Nathan Miller
My brother.
He hadn't deserved winning.
He was-...I was glad he was gone.
But I'd make my parents proud.
I would, I would, I would.
One tear trickles down my cheek.
I would.

I walk into the trophy room to look at all the plaques. Slytherin I hoped would be able to get a plaque this year. That's when I saw Joanna. "Hey," Then I noticed her face was a little flushed and she looked like she was going to bust out crying,"Are you ok?"

"Yeah, just-...just looking." I say, blinking back tears.

"Just-..." I walk slowly back down to the shield with my parents' names on it. "My parents. There. It's been-...it's been a while now. Starting to forget their voices." I say sadly.

"Oh, I think I understand. I'm sorry. Hey to tell the truth I don't think some one can forget a voice. Just think of them every once in a while and you'll never forget them."I give a sympathetic smile,I was never good at comforting people.

"Yeah, I guess." I say quietly. "It's just not fair, you know?"

I nod,"Yeah, I know what you mean." I stare at my reflection in the glass.

"I wish I could speak to them just once more." I say softly, more to myself than her.

I nod, "It's ok to be sad. Everyone will be sad at least once in their life. Don't beat yourself up over it."

"Yeah, I just-...I don't know." I shrug. "And now my bloody brother's gone and got himself killed too." I say miserably. "I don't know what to do. I don't have a family anymore and it all happened so fast and I still don't understand at all."

"I'm sorry to hear about your brother.Of course you don't understand it, I doubt anyone ever will. Even if you don't have a family, I'm sure your friends already think of you as a sister and what not. Really there is nothing you can do. I'm sure that they are looking down upon you and wanting you to live a happy life."

"Looking up you mean." I laugh sardonically. "My parents, maybe yeah. They might just have scraped their way into 'heaven' or whatever happens to be there. My brother. He'll be rotting in the fires of hell and I'm glad. He deserves it." I say bitterly. "He was a fucking death eater and he got himself killed for it."

"I'm sorry to hear that." I think about what will happen to me if I'm forced to get the dark mark."Well, at least you're still here and you know not to make the same mistake."

"I believe that everyone you meet in this world is someone who helps you find a piece of yourself. Right now you are helping me find a piece of myself. I think you're really nice too."

I smile weakly. "The feelings mutual, you know. You didn't have to come here in and talk to me. Means you must be pretty nice."

"I don't want to offend you in anyway, please, don't take this the wrong way...but, your family, the Blacks, they're into the whole...um...death eater thing, aren't they?" I ask nervously, maybe Andy knew what it was like, if her family were the same...

"No, it's fine, I don't know. I'v been trying to get disowned but that's not working I'm going to try to figure out a way though."
