Chapter 1 | Bad omen
Tumblr media
Bundled under her thick blankets little Penny Wicks was sound asleep. She might have remained so, had it not been for the loud creaking in the hallway that woke her up. It was very dark and difficult to see clearly with the exception of a small sliver of yellow light that momentarily appeared at her door. the light faded as she heard the faint creaking of the floorboards moving further down the hall. She didn't know why the door was ajar. Penny had always been frightened of leaving her door open at night. It always gave her an uncomfortable feeling, like she was being watched from the darkness. as she climbed out of bed and made her way over to the door the light caught her eye again. She had assumed the source of the light to be her mother or father going to the bathroom, but upon glancing towards the light realized it was someone in flowing black robes, slowly descending the stairs.
Frightened, she waited for the dark figure to disappear down the steps before quickly tip-toeing towards her parent's room. Climbing on to the large bed she felt around the sheets, trying to wake her mother and father. In the darkness, it took her a moment to realize there was no one under the sheets, just their pillows. Downstairs a door closed, causing her heart to jump into her throat. All she could think to do was hide beneath the sheets to hide.
In the darkness, Penny heard a sickening scream echoing from the street outside. Another scream rang out and she recognized her mother's voice. Fearing for her mum a crying Penny ran down the stairs and out into the street. The golden light of the street lamps gave the misty Grimmauld place an eerie, otherworldly feeling. Unable to see clearly in the thick mist she slowly and silently made her way down the pavement.
As she wandered past the lights towards the street corner something approached her from the dark. looking down at the pavement it was almost snakelike as it seemed to wriggle towards her along the stone pavement. Then came another and then another and the dark snakelike things turned red in the lamplight, forming a roadmap of blood. Her mother's blood. Looking further ahead she saw a human figure on the street, under blood-drenched clothe. Paralyzed and sick with fear Penny turned to scream for her father, only for her throat to be gripped by terror. She had barely turned her head away from the figure when out of the corner of her eye it seemed to move. Turning to face the figure again she could have sworn the head had turned to face her.
"Penny." A soft voice called out from under the blood-soaked cloth. "Penny, my beautiful Penny."  Enola's voice was calm and welcoming, but Penny didn't feel safe, even when her mother reached out a hand that was dripping red. The hand clawed slowly at the air like she was attempting to get free, but as the cloth fell away from her face, she didn't look that determined to escape. Her eyes were grey and cloudy with no sign of despair or panic. It was like she was half asleep. "Penny." She said again as a hand clamped down on to Penny's shoulder.

Screaming, Penny sat bolt upright in bed as a terrified Hallie pulled her hand away and jumped back from the bed.
"It's alright. It's just me." Hallie reassured her.
"Oh, God. I'm sorry Hallie. I just... I had another nightmare about my mother." Penny apologized.
"Hey, come here." Hallie sat down on the bed and wrapped her arms around Penny, who pulled her close. "I know how you feel. I still have nightmares about my father's murder, even after all this time. I can't believe he's been gone for five years," she said. It had also been five years since Penny and her father, Raury heard the dreadful knock on their door to tell them that her mother was dead. Five long years, and still Penny remembered with perfect clarity her fathers haunting screams as he ran out into the frozen street.
A month before Enola's murder, Hallie's father Bernard Luckolw was abducted and killed by the Mad hangman of Hogsmeade. He had been a reporter for the daily prophet, working on the disappearances of Muggles and Muggle-borns throughout London. There were disturbing rumours about Muggle-born relocation camps. He was convinced that he who must not be named was conducting human experiments with dark magic. The last time he was seen alive, he was leaving the three broomsticks. His body was later found in the woods, hanged from a tree along the path towards the shrieking shack.
They had all slowly and painfully moved on since then, trying not to think of it as best they could. Every other day there was talk of the Knockturn Ripper, The mad hangman, and other's who supported He who must not be named. Never the less no one in the family was about to let those monsters ruin their new happiness. Raury was done living in misery and didn't want Penny to grow up like she was raised in a more. After two years of denial and heartache, he was finally going to marry Hallie's mother, Ethel.
"Oh look at us. We shouldn't be crying like this. Not today anyway." Hallie smiled as she let go of Penny and got up from the bed.
"I still can't believe we're really going to be sisters, proper sisters." Penny laughed as she climbed out of bed. It was what she'd wanted for a long time. Hallie had been her dearest friend for so long now. Even when the two were separated as Hallie boarded the train to Hogwarts, Penny longed to go with her, to see the castle, learn spells and see what house she might have been sorted into.
As Penny flung open the curtains and lifted the window to get some fresh air she saw the young boy from 13 Grimmauld Place on the street. What was he doing up at this hour on a Saturday? He was lifting a large trunk into the passenger side of his motorcycle. As he put his broomstick in beside the trunk he gave a long look of utter loathing towards his front door, before catching a glance of Penny out of the corner of his eye. He was so beautiful that Sirius Black. She was completely flustered as he smiled up at her. Smiling back at him she gave him a little wave. He waved back as walked around towards the driver's seat before smiling up at her again and giving her a cheeky wink.

"He really fancies you." Hallie laughed as she brushed her pretty red hair. "Honestly, what would Nathan think if he saw you admiring Sirius Black of all people?" She asked as Penny watched him driving away.
"He does not fancy me. In all these years he's barely spoken a word to me." Penny protested with a smile. "Besides, you know I wouldn't trade Nathan for anyone else."  It was true. The Black family, if they ever dared to venture beyond their front doorstep, refused to be associated with anyone. Muggle-borns and especially muggles like Penny and her father were beneath contempt to them. Years ago She encountered Sirius and Regulus on their doorstep and said hello. Before Sirius could even get a word out his mother burst out of the front door and slammed her black cane on the wall between them, barely missing his fingers. "inside, NOW!" She growled at the boys with murderous fury in her eyes, before turning towards Penny. "You filthy dirt veined muggle. Away with you! The disgusting, vile thing that you are!" As Mrs black began to advance on her, swing her cane in a rage, Penny backed away from the insane woman and towards her own door. Mrs Blacks sons could be heard a mile off as they both argued with their mother to stop. Taking advantage of the distraction Penny ran inside and closed the door. Despite their disgust at muggles, The Black's weren't the easiest family to live next door to and hard to miss. They would often be heard through the walls, having blazing rows, like Mrs Black and her eldest son were trying to kill each other. Luckily the Wicks wouldn't be home for long today as Ethal called the girls down to breakfast and they all prepared for the wedding.
