My summer holiday was different from the last year as this time Lupin had taken me on holiday to America. I had managed to find some interesting magical creature books that I bought and took back home. We had gone on holiday on the beginning of the summer throughout the rest of the summer holidays I wrote to Draco and Cedric and my three Gryfindor friends and Ginny. As the summer was coming to a close Lupin had taken me to buy all of my needed school supplies once everything had been bought we went back to our house where we ordered some muggle food. As we sat down at the table Lupin eating the meat feast pizza he ordered and I drank the deer blood from my cup Lupin looked to me smiling making me raise an eyebrow.

"What? What is it?" 

"I have a surprise for you"

"What's the surprise?" 

"Dumbledore has offered me a placement as the DADA teacher at Hogwarts" My eyes widened and a smile grew on my face.

"Please tell me you took it?" 

"Of course I took it. I do believe I will be teaching you with Harry and his friends as well" This made me smile widely exited at this but the excitement stopped with what he said next. "Though it has come to my knowledge that someone knows about your vampirism" I felt my heart stop for a second. "I am disappointed that I had to hear it from Dumbledore and that you didn't just tell me Angelica" I looked down picking at my nails feel anxiety growing inside me. "Luckily, Dumbledore also told me this mystery person promised to secrecy so at least there is that" He let out a sigh. "Look, is there anything you want to tell me now? Anything else that I need to know?" I thought for a second and considered if I should tell him about Draco but if I told him about Draco he would figure out that Draco knows my secret and he was already annoyed at one person finding out let alone the one person he told me to keep away from. After a second I shuck my head.

"N-no there's nothing else" He looked at me with a raised eyebrow and I panicked thinking he hadn't believed my bluff. Luckily, he decided to drop the conversation and we did the washing up before heading up to bed. A few days later and it was time to head to the Hogwarts express unlike all the other years where Lupin would leave me at the station instead we found a compartment together and sat put our bags in the overhead space. Last night the reason we went to bed so early was because it was a full moon meaning Moony would drain Lupin for the day using so much energy. We were both right in our thinking as instantly as soon as he had sat down he fell asleep making me roll my eyes. I pulled out my book for the journey and read until I heard a familar voice.

"I didn't mean to blow her up. I just... lost control." I smirked at this and stood up to meet them outside the compartment.

"Brilliant!" Ron said smiling Hermione glared at Ron. 

"Honestly, Ron, it's not funny. Harry's lucky he wasn't expelled."

"I still think it was brilliant." I rolled my eyes and chuckled.

"Looks like I have a lot to catch up on" The three looked in my direction smiling Hermione pushing past the two and giving me a huge hug. "'Mione, dying here!" I gasped out jokingly making her chuckle letting me go and lightly hitting my arm.

"Oh, quiet you. You need to tell me all about America." I nodded and pointed into the compartment.

"Sure, you guys can sit with me and my godfather" This made the three look at me confused but they follow me inside where my godfather was still slumped against the window fast asleep. "Yeah, he'll be like this for most likely the rest of the journey" After the three had put their bags away Harry looked at me and asked.

"Is he really asleep?" I raised my eyebrow but nodded.

"Yeah, like I said he'll be out of it for a while"

"Why? What is it, Harry?" Hermione asked. Harry didn't answer he got up and closed the door Harry explains to us that Sirius Black had escaped Askaban and was coming to kill Harry. I had to hide all my emotions from the three. I had known for many years that not only was my mother a vampire but that my father was Sirius Black. I could tell my godfather never liked talking about my dad and despite hearing why he was in Askaban I couldn't help but think he was innocent. Maybe it was just me thinking my dad wasn't a murderore but I couldn't help but feel excited and also scared that he had escaped. If my feelings were correct and he was innocent then I could see my dad again but if he was an insane killer and he was trying to kill my friend what if he was coming to get me to?. I tuned back into the conversation when Hermione spoke up.

"But they'll catch Black, won't they? I mean... eventually?" Ron nodded.

"Sure -- Of course, no one's ever broken out of Azkaban before and he's a raving, murderous lunatic..." After he had said that the compartment door begins to rattle and the lanterns begin to flicker. I look around confused when the train suddenly lurched to a stop making me fall off my seat as it stopped. I got up and went to sit back down on my seat.

"Why're we stopping? We can't be there yet..." Harry get's up and opens the door looking up and down the corridor. Harry comes back in and shuts the door sitting back down when I looked back at the door I saw a black figure making me freeze in fear something about it made me feel like I was dying maybe it was my vampire side but I was getting more and more scared. The figure opened our door followed by another one that went towards Harry but my eyes were focused on the one getting way to close making me feel weaker by the second I try to move away from the creature but I felt something grab my wrist stopping me from moving backwards weakly I looked down and saw a skeletal hand grabbing my wrist. As my world started going black I saw a white light fire in the direction of the creature before I saw just blackness. 

I don't know how long I was out but when I woke up I could hear that the train was moving I slowly sat up and I saw Harry looked in a bad state. I felt a hand on my shoulder, looking up I saw Remus looking at me worridely.

"Are you okay?" I weakly nodded.

"Y-yeah, just a bit dizzy" I heard a snap and saw he was handing me a chunk of chocolate making me smile. 

"Here, I've given some to Harry as well and explained everything, they can fill you in. I'll be back I just have to go talk to the driver" Before he left I stopped him.

"Wait, can we speak about this later?" I gave him a look making him give me a small nod. When he left the three explain how that creature was a Dementor that was looking for Sirius which made me think that the creature had an effect on me and wouldn't let me go because of me being Sirius's daughter.

Eventually, we got to Hogwarts where after a small show of singing toads we were about to to start the feast when Dumbledore stood getting all our attention.

"Welcome! Welcome to another year at Hogwarts! I have a few things to say, before we become befuddled by our excellent feast. I myself am particularly looking forward to the flaming kiwi cups, which, while somewhat treacherous for those of us with facial hair..." This made a lot of us chuckle when McGonagall clears her throat aimed towards Dumbledore. "Mm. Yes. First, I'm pleased to welcome Professor R.J. Lupin, who has kindly consented to fill the post of Defence Against the Dark Arts. Good luck to you,Professor." There is a small applause except mine, Harry, Ron, Hermione's and even Cedric let out loud claps. "As some of you may know, Professor Kettleburn, our Care of Magical Creatures teacher for many years,has decided to retire in order to spend more time with his remaining limbs." I looked slightly sad as that was my best lesson seeing as that was one of the lesson I could secretly use my vampire skills by making friends with the creatures. "Fortunately, I'm delighted to announce that his place will be filled by none other than our own Rubeus Hagrid!" There was silence before a large group of people let our thunderous claps but Dumbledore continued. "Finally, on a more disquieting note, Hogwarts -- at the request of the Ministry of Magic -- will, until further notice, play host to the Dementors of Azkaban. A MURMUR of apprehension fills the hall." From the corner of my eye I catch Draco pretending to faint mocking Harry but once he caught me glaring he stopped looking down sheepishly. "The Dementors will be stationed at the entrances to the grounds. While they are under strict orders not to enter the castle itself, you will on occasion see them as you go about your daily activities. Under no circumstances are you to approach them. It is not in the nature of a Dementor to be forgiving." That thought made a chill go through my spine. That night before I could lose my godfather I spoke to him in private.

"Do you think my dad is gonna come here?" He sighed rubbing the back of his neck.

"I'm not sure. Just try and stay out of trouble" I smirk worry lacing my smile. 

"Me? Trouble? Never"
