Ch 21- Just Another Day.

A/N:Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.

"Come on lets go to Hogsmeade, we will have ButterBeer" declared Sirius as soon as we left the trial room.

"Seriously? You wanna go drink right now?" asked Blake .

"Of course, I haven't had a drink in 12 years, I wanna have one now, and Harry come with me, I will tell you about the time James and I went to the Muggle World." replied Sirius

"Ahem I think it would be better if we go to St.Mungos have them take a look at you." said Lupin being the voice of reason.

"Or to Gringotts to get the Vaults transfer done, Harry and I still have to go back to Hogwarts." said Blake.

"I'll like to spend time with Sirius if that's alright." Harry said clearly excited about the prospect of knowing more about his father.

"See, Remus even Harry agrees and Blake you deal with the vaults in whatever way you want, I may not look like it but I am rich, I don't care about the petty change in Lestrange vault. I only let you take it cause i wanted to enjoy Lucius reaction, I just did it for the laughs." said Sirius chuckling, "Oh, i will never forget his expression, it was like someone took a child's favorite toy."

"You are wearing my clothes and you definitely look like some homeless dude. So Let me correct you, you look poor." argued Blake.

"Still I look handsome and that's not something you can buy." said Sirius whipping his hairs, "Well you all can stay here, I am leaving with my Godson." said Sirius taking Harry away with him, leaving behind annoyed Blake and a laughing Lupin.

"You are laughing Professor?" Blake asked.

"Yes"said Lupin wiping a tear coming out of his right eye, "its good to see Sirius act just like he used to, I am happy to see that Azkaban hasn't done any lasting damage to him, i was worried about that. Though he seems more energetic now, cranked upto a 1000."

"How did you tolerate him for seven years?" asked Blake almost pleading

"Hahah, don't worry he will grow on you and when he won't be around then you will realize how much you miss him. So want me to take you to Gringotts or Lets go back to Hogwarts?" asked Lupin with a smile.

"Umm, Hogwarts for now, I will take Sirius's advice and will go to Gringotts later. Goblins are a pain to deal with."

"Ok, let's go."

{Blake POV}

I was walking back to the Slytherin Dungeons after my potions lesson with Snape.

'Now that I have access to Lestrange vault, I have enough money to move forward with my plans, I should but enough shares of Bicrosoft and Tapple and later on Loogle and Friendbook, just imagining how rich I am going to be in next twenty years make me drool.'

Suddenly I heard sobbing sound.

Being a Slytherin, I actually just wanted to go back to the dorms but somehow I couldn't ignore the sound.'I am a good person' I thought sighing.

Looking past the Gargoyle figurines, I saw a small girl crouched crying.

"Shh, are you okay?" I asked sitting down to her level.

"(Sob)(Sob) Leave me alone." she said.

I looked at her, looking at her height and face she must have been a first year.

"Shh, you listen to me, I may be being nosy here, but I ain't leaving until you stop crying and tell me if everything is fine or not." I said while wiping tears off her face using my handerchief.

"Ah!"She shouted when my hand touched a part of her face.

"Shh,Shh, let me see." I said while raising her chin to look at a cut on her cheek side.

"Oh this is nothing just a small cut, I don't think we even need to go to Madam Pomfrey for it, I'll fix it up for you okay? Don't worry it won't leave a scar. Not that a small scar like this would hurt this pretty face."Blake said teasing her.

After a few minutes of consoling her and finally when i thought she was fine.

"So you want to tell me what happened?" I asked while standing up along with her.

"Three students attacked me." She said with her voice breaking.

'keep calm, keep calm' I thought repeating this mantra though it took enough willpower to not let emotion come to my face.

"Which House?" I asked maintaining the facade of being calm.

"Gryffindors" she said.

"Can you recognize them?" I aked

"Yes..., three 4th years." She said.

"Well then we will make sure they pay back later." I said with a smile.

She looked at me, she wasn't expecting me to give such a reply.

"Remember this little one, Slytherins remember their grudges." I told her.

"Astoria!!, there you are" I heard a voice come behind and hug the girl.

"I was worried cause I didn't see you the whole day." said the Girl.

"I am fine Daphne, he helped me." said the little girl whose name was Astoria.

"Rivers,"she said looking at me.

I knew who she was, Daphne Greengrass, a pureblood, she usually hung around with Draco and his gang.

"Greengrass" I returned the greeting, honestly despite being in the same house the number of time her and Blake ever had a conversation was zero so there was nothing to talk about between us. Turning towards Astoria I said.

"Well since she is here, I think I can leave, and little one, I am gonna quote Headmaster here, Help will always be given at Hogwarts to those who ask for it, it doesn't matter which house you belong to, so ask okay? See ya ."

And so I left.

{Daphne POV}

"What happened Astroria?"

Astoria ran into her sisters embrace.

"Three Gryffindors hexed me, I was here crying, Blake came and healed me." Astoria told her sister with a bit of difficulty and then started crying again.

"Shh,Shh, no need to worry Aster, I am here. You should have come straight to me. I would have handled those three."Daphne said lightly consoling her sister.

"Hmm,hmm" replied Astoria not leaving her sister's embrace.

"Are you hurt somewhere? If you are then lets go to Pomfrey she will fix it." said Daphne concerned.

"I am fine, he fixed it." said Astoria moving out and tracing her fingers at the place where she was hurt and Blake had healed her.

"Good." said Daphne with a smile," Lets go."

And they left for the Slytherin Dorm too.
