"Lying increases the creative faculties, expands the ego, and lessens the frictions of social contacts. "~Clare Booth Luce
Alex patiently waited until his father and Sarah had left the Hogshead and quickly apparated back to the lake. He ran up to the school looking for James.
James was sitting in his room reading a book over potions. That was then one class he stunk at in school.
He ran up and down the stairs seeing if James was on each of the floors. He could send him a mesage why didn't he think of that....*James where are you?* He sent to him hoping James would get the message.
James heard it. Then sent back *In my bed studying potions. Why*
*Need to tell you something....true and very juicy well for you anyway...*He sent back as he ran up the stairs to the boys' dormitories.
*well okay. I will still be here* James then sat up on his bed and looked at the door. He could not think about what would be juicy for him.
Alex rushed into James's room and closed the door. "Finally I found you....I need to tell you something that I overheard our parents talking about."
James looked up at him and then smiled. "Oh really that is interesting. I mean normally they are talking about animals."
He then put his book aside.
Alex laughed. "I read the newspaper everyday when it comes in the mail. Before I had seen in the papers sudden crimes by a person whose name was never revealed."
James looked at him. "what crimes did they not have names on. I mean read it to and I have not seen any of them." JAmes was now confused.
He sat down on the soft rug. "The crimes were like the guy who was under the crucio curse and the Gringotts bank robbery. They were all committed by the same person and I know who that person is..."
James looked at him. "Come on how would you know. I mean no one really knows who did it. I mean the minisrty would not tell anyone." Janes was now wanting to know more.
"Hmm then do you want to know then?"
"well that sounds okay. I mean if our parents were talking it should be okay." James was not so sure about this though.
Alex sensed his friend's doubt. "Fine then guess and if you can't get it in three guesses I'll tell you who the person is....the person is someone we know."
James looked at his friend. He was not likeing guessing games. "we both know a lot of people."
"Fine I'll tell you the person who committed the crimes was your mom."
James looked at him and laughed. "Ya and pigs fly. My mom it the least likely person I know to do that."
Alex smirked. "Actually pigs do fly in this world...and I heard our parents talking about your mom committing the crimes."
JAmes looked at him. He was getting mad. "You are joking. I mean my mom not that way."
"....any why wouldn't she commit the crimes...."
"well why would she. I mean she hads a great life so far. Why would she want to riun it." James stood up.
"Everyone has difficulties in their life.....that's the biggest reason why she did those crimes."
Looked at you. "I don't think that it ture. I mean she would tell me."
"Your mom of course wants you to be hidden from the truth and would she really tell you that she had done those crimes?"
"She tells us everything. I mean and what she does not tell up my dad does." James was really confused now.
Alex sensed his friend's uncomfortableness but just kept continuing on. "Exactly she doesn't tell you everything."
"Well I know that she might not but I don't think she would really do that." James started to walk throught the door.
He got up quickly and grabbed James' arm. "Hey wait....why don't you think your mom might not have done this crime?"
(jfdkajkjfsklfekj. I want in. Crazy enough. Can someone I play have to come in for some reason and talk to James? Or something? Sarah I miss my kids!)
((go ahead be creative.....go CRAZY!!lol))
(Sure you can come in.)
"Ya I think that. I mean she not like that." JAmes then pulled his arm back. "Why would she."
(Ha, ha, ha. I have an evil idea... Can I have some helpful information please? Age, location, time of day and year, who is all in this right now. If you would be so willing. I'm going in blind here so I need a little light to help out.)
(well 4 year so they are 15 year old. Location boys dormitory. around lunch)
"Hey anyone can look innocent but still be a bad guy...."
James looked at him. "Well I'm not sure but I will believe you for now. Well at least till I can prove you wrong."
(Okay thanks. Whoops one more question what house are they in?)
((Gryffindor))
Alex shrugged and said,"Well thanks for believing me...but I think you should ask someone....like your father or my father...."
"Well I guess I could ask one of them. Don't you think though that they will lie if I try." James laid on his bed.
Bang! Smoke filled the dungeon quickly as a cauldron bursted onto the floor before a tall skinny woman with beautiful blonde long hair. She rolled her eyes and growled angrily, taking out a slender black wand. Before the whole first year classes eyes, Professor Abby (I need to do research on her name again) the cauldron fixed itself and returned empty. She glared for a moment at the students before suddenly she sighed. "Class is out. Fill a flask of the potion and place it on my desk I want six inches of parchment on how this potion could be deadly to dwarfs by next class. I have work to do people so snap to it!" She roughly turned on her heal to walk swiftly back to her desk. As the children placed the flask's quickly on her desk she ignored them, staring down at an assignment page that had been turned in incomplete. She grumbled loudly.
Yet again Mr. Black you have failed to complete an assignment. I will be talking to you later. She sent crudely to James through her mind, knowing he could hear her.
*Yes Professor I can come down now if you do not have anything.* James then sent back sitting up
Yes well I think it would be in your best interest to do so. She sent back to him with hatred in her words. Abby had a past with James's father, Sirius and she had never officially forgiven him for anything that occurred during there childhood. Because of these problems she had with Sirius, she was far from kind with his children. Being head of the Slytherin house didn't help either considering James was in Gryffindor.
Alexandra had been wondering the dungeon halls aimlessly not looking for any particular place to go.
James looked at Alex. "Well I have to go. I mean I have to talk with a teacher about school."
James then walked out the door and down to the Dungeon. That when he found Abby. "you wanted me."
Alexandra saw his brother coming and hid quickly in the shadows. He would find enjoyment in tormenting him when he returned from seeing Proffesor Abby. (ugh, I really will look up her last name later)
"Yes, Mr. Black, please sit down." The tone of her voice when she said please made it seem like she had only said it to be polite, really she was ordering him to sit down. She stood from her chair and motioned to a desk before bending over to her own desk and pulling out a folder.
James looked at her has she sat down. "I did not mean to do that bad. I have just had things on my mind. I am so sorry. What can I do to make it up."
Alexandra grew impatient waiting for her brother so slowly she crept towards the door, listening to the other said, smiling smugly to herself.
"That is no excuse! If every child walked in here claiming that they had to much on there mind to do there assigned work then we would have no responsible students. You are just like your father, always trying to get away with things." She muttered the final sentence to herself as she peered down at the folder. "I see here this isn't your first assignment missing from my class Mr. Black." She turned to him, glaring before flipping her hair out of her face so fast it was as if her hands never moved. "You will report to the dungeons everyday for a week starting tonight for detention." She paused as if thinking before smiling smugly. "Along with your sister who seems to think that I cannot see her. YOU WILL COME TO MS. BLACK! My isn't this my lucky week." She laughed quietly.
Alexandra growled to herself, hitting her forehead on the door making it slide open, creaking on the hinges. "Yes Proffesor." She said glaring at James as if it were his fault rather then her own idiocy.
James then stood up. "okay Yes mame I will show up but the turth is I have had a lot on my mind. I mean I have found out some stuff that is rather shocking." He then walked towards the door. "but I will be here tonight."
James was wanting to find is dad or at least someone that might know something about what he was told.
(Sirius needs to get in on this)
Abby nodded, frustrated that she had not had a more depressed affect from James after giving his detentions. She was hoping that she would be able to get at least two weeks for being rude or something in that area. "And I assume you will make an appearance Ms. Black?" It wasn't a question, but Abby's tone suggested it as. She had only said it to try and coax Alexandra.
"Yes Professor," Alexandra muttered glumly following her brother from the room without a look back.
She ran up behind James and smiled to him, seemingly forgetting the fact that she had just gotten detention. "Hey little bro! What's up?"
"Well Alexandra. I was talking to Alex up in our room. He told me something I really did nto want to know." He then turned to face her.
"You know how supposable their was a person that had mastered the art of the Curcio curse, then tryied to rob Gringotts, and did some other bad things."
Alexandra stopped in her tracks to face James. She thought she knew who it was but feared the truth. "Are you positive?" She asked, her voice trembling. "Who?" She already thought she knew the answer but didn't want to face it.
Alex shrugged and went on to his next class. "I can't believe it....my best friend actually doesn't believe me...." He muttered to himself.
((you're so mean Sirius.......lol))
(I had forgotten about Abby! I had to get her back in on the swing of things. I missed her. Just like I miss someone else... Can you guess who?)
James looked at her. "Well Mom or that is what Alex said. I mean I need to talk to dad or someone about it."
(let me guess me.)
(well i always miss you when your not on. but this time i was meaning someone else.)
Alexandra's eyes widened. She had been wrong in her thinking. She feared that James was referring to there dad. She had apparently been wrong. "Wow," she said, her jaw dropping. "I had no idea. Are you sure that's what Alex said?"
(okay well then who are you talking with me.)
"Yes That what alex said. I mean I know what your thinking. I asked him twice. Help me think of some way to help." JAmes looked at her sister.
"Well what do you think we should do? We could play it cool and act like nothing is going on. Or we could summon dad here right now and see if its true what you heard." As much as Alexandra didn't want to believe it, part of her feared what Alex said was true.
(Cho Chang. I want her back. :'()
((wait do you mean me?lol))
(Yes I mean you. The old you. Not this multi person you. I wanna be the unstoppable three again.)
((sorry....you know what.....she just had a little baby boy but she's going to come back....trust me.))
James looked at her. "Well okay you call dad. I will think of a way to expian it so that he would get the truth.
Alexandra nodded quickly closing her eyes and focussing on Sirius's mind. Dad, can you hear me?
Sirius sighed, putting his quil down he responded in his head. Yes, what's up baby?
Would it be possible for you to go to Hogwarts and meet James and myself at your and mom's tree?
Sure, is something wrong? Sirius asked her standing up from his desk. "I'll be back in an hour Mrs. Thornsberry." He said to his assistant before apparating to Hogsmeade.
No dad. Alexandra said, rubbing her head. She still wasn't used to the headaches that came from telepathy.
She turned to James and nodded. "He's coming."
JAmes looked at him. "Where are we going to meet him." James was wanting to talk to his dad. He need to know what was going on.
((should I stalk you guys and eavesdrop?))
(If you want. It might be helpful so you can stay in this post. Btw, I'm Alexandra Sarah. "James looked at him")
Alexandra began walking up the dungeon stairs as she spoke. "Outside next to his and mom's tree." They reached the great hall and she quickly opened the big doors and headed towards the lake.
(sorry ment her)
"okay well lets get going now." James then took off running. He wanted to hurry and get this over with.
Alex saw James running with his older sister towards the lake. He threw on his invisibility cloak and stalked them.
((mwahahahaha))
(...Your creepiness is entertaining. =])
Sirius quickly walked to the tree, reaching it before he could even see Alexandra and James's heads of the hill. He leaned against the tree, waiting.
Alexandra reached the tree a minute later and walked up to hug her dad. "Hey thanks for coming dad. Sorry if we interrupted."
"Oh nonsense, if you would have interrupted I wouldn't have come," He smiled hugging his little angel back. "How's my little girl?" He asked peering down at her although her height made her only about a head shorter then him.
"I'm good but James has some stuff he wanted to ask you. James?" Alexandra asked turning behind her to see if James had come yet.
Alex followed Alexandra and saw James' father. James needs to ask his father.....about what? He thought to himself.
"okay dad. When I tell you this you have to tell the truth. If I find out you lied to me I am leaving the family. I mean I don't know where I will go but I'm not going home." JAmes wanted to make sure his dad understood that he wanted to turth.
"I heard from some sorce that. Well they person that the mistiry said had been the only one to attack gringotts and get away besides voldemort. Plus to master the Curcio curse. Well I heard that was mom." James then looked at his dad.
"Is that ture."
Alex bit the sides of his cheek from saying anything out loud. He couldn't believe it! His friend really didn't believe him at all!
((wow Sarah that was direct......lol))
Alexandra stared at her father, hoping it was incorrect, but having a hunch it was right.
Sirius looked from his son, to his daughter, then back to his son. After a moment of thinking it through, his jaw clenched tight shut, he opened his mouth ready to speak.
He closed it, pausing, and staring some more into the eyes of his children. He opened his mouth again, ready to speak before closing it. He rubbed his face with both his hands before inhaling loudly. He closed his eyes and opened his mouth saying five simple words that meant so much.
"What you heard is true."
I knew it.....I knew it! He thought to himself.
James stood there in shock. He was not even sure what to say. He then looked at his feet. "Why did you not tell us. I mean we do have the right to know."
JAmes wanted to run but his feet would not move.
((should I come out of my shadows right now?))
Alexandra kept her eyes on the ground not knowing which emotions to feel.
Sirius stared only at James now because Alexandra was unwilling to look at him. "Look, what you both need to understand is this." He paused, taking his hand and placing it on Alexandra's chin, lifting it up so she looked at him in the eyes. He placed his hand on her shoulder, and the other on James's so there shoulders touched together. He kept his hands there as he spoke. "Your mother and myself have secrets that you couldn't begin to understand until you're older. Some secrets are meant to be kept hidden, especially ones that your mother feels most ashamed of. I'm sorry you had to find out this way, we were going to try and make it so you never had to find out. Who told you anyway?"
(Now harrypotterfan:))
"I did." Alex said coming from under his invisibility cloak.
Alexandra looked surprised as she turned from her father's gaze to Alex. "How'd you-"
"He was hiding. I saw him when I came in, I decided to let him stay." Sirius interrupted answering Alexandra's question casually and with no air of arrogense whatsoever. "I pretty much guessed there was a reason he was following you both. Now I see why." He smiled to the boy, not knowing his name. "I do have a few questions for him now though. Curiosity killed the cat so do excuse my wanting to know more."
((umm hello you should know me....Harry's son....but whatever))
"Mr. Black you don't remember me. I'm Harry's son....I haven't seen you in ages though."
James turned away from his dad. "I want to know. I mean what if it was not a friend who told me but an enemy."
James then went to walk away. He was not sure what to do but he knew that Siruis would tell his mom.
((wait what......so are you lying to your father or are you implying that I'm an enemy?))
