Lauren A. Black (my Harry Potter oc)

Moving Harry Potter (Age 15)

Harry stepped out of his old cupboard and gave it one last fond look as a knock came at the door. He opened it and found Hagrid on the other side. 

"Hagrid," he exclaimed, pulling the half-giant into a hug. 

"Harry!"a voice behind them shouted. Harry turned. It was Ron. Mad-eye Moody came in next, muttering complaints and urging everyone inside. Remus, Tonks, Hermione, Fred, George, Mundungus Fletcher, Kingsley Shaklebolt, Bill, Fleur, Arthur Weasley, and Sirius followed him inside. Just as Harry was about to close the door, a familiar face dropped down from the top of the doorway. 

" 'ello Harry," Lauren said smugly, dropping down to the ground and strutting inside. 

"Sirius," Mad-eye growled. "I told you not to bring her." Sirius shrugged. 

"Well, you see Mad-eye,"Lauren began, "People tend to do what you say when you have them tied to a staircase and are threatening to shave their head." Remus and the twins laughed. Mad-eye muttered something under his breath. 

"Just don't get yourself killed."he ordered. Lauren shrugged. 

"I don't plan to." Mad-eye glared at her. 

"Well, if I remember correctly, you have a tendency to dive into unpredictable situations without thinking them through first." he proclaimed. Lauren nodded. 

"That's true. And this is no exception." 

"I vote in favor of Mad-eye's last statement," Sirius said. "Don't die." Mad-eye grumbled again. 

"Let's get this over with. Harrys' get ready." Harry frowned. 

"what-OW!" he said, as Lauren yanked out a piece of his hair and passed it to Moody. 

"I imagine you're familiar with this particular brew?"Mad-eye asked. Harry's eyes widened. As he protested, Fleur, Ron, Hermione, Fred, George, Mundungus, and Lauren took a sip of the potion and turned into Harry. Polyjuice potion. "Every Harry is paired up with someone else."Mad-eye explained. "Harry- the real one- you'll be with Hagrid. Then we have Bill and Fleur, Kingsley and Granger, Tonks and Ron, Remus and George, Sirius and Fred, and Arthur and Lauren. Mundungus, you're coming with me." Lauren sighed and began to protest, insisting that she needed to keep an eye on Sirius. 

"Lauren I need you to stay with a sensible and responsible person, so Arthur it is." Sirius opened his mouth, looking mildly offended.

 "I don't know whether to be relieved or offended." he mumbled. 

And with that, they were off. Almost immediately, the death eaters appeared. They shot curses at all of them. Lauren watched over Mr. Weasley's shoulder as George was hit. Arthur didn't see. It was this reason why Lauren was distracted enough to not see the Death Eater. He shot her off of the broom and into the air. Arthur yelled her name but he had his own fight to continue. Lauren landed hard on a rooftop and the Death Eater pursued her, thinking she was Harry. She stood up with a groan and faced him, stealthily pulling the dagger out of her pocket. She dodged his curse and lunged at him with the blade. Unprepared for the close combat, the Death Eater retreated. But not fast enough. With another swipe, Lauren sliced deep into the man, right where his chest and neck met. He slumped to the ground and Lauren turned towards the sky as she heard Mr. Weasley shout her name. He was approaching the rooftop with amazing speed, one hand out stretched for her. Without thinking about it, Lauren ran to the edge of the roof and jumped off, grabbing Mr. Weasley's hand. She pulled herself back on the broom as they sped off towards the others. 

At the Burrow.....

Arthur and Lauren landed in the grass outside the Burrow with a thud. The polyjuice potion had worn off, so Lauren was back to normal. She poked at her side with a wince, imagining all the wonderful colors her bruise from the rooftop landing must be turning. As they walked towards the house, Sirius and Remus ran towards them and pointed their wands at them. Lauren's mouth dropped as Sirius pointed his wand at her. 

"And just what do you think you're doing?" she questioned. "Sirius, it's me, it's Lauren." He looked at her coldly. 

"I don't know that. Now, tell me. What monster is under my bed?" he demanded. Lauren glared at him in return. 

"This is highly unnecessary, but fine. Since you didn't specify, I'll say both. His name is Harold and he's a good dreams monster. I made him when I was five. And if you still don't think it's me, then I'll throw in, Your name is written in a rose tattoo. Now quit pointing that thing at me before I walk over there and slap you so hard your curled mustache falls off." Sirius lowered his wand. 

"They're clean." he said to Remus, who also lowered his wand. Sirius turned back to Lauren, the coldness in his eyes replaced with worry. "Are you alright?"

"Nothing that won't heal."

"Are the others back yet?" Mr. Weasley asked. "Are they alright?" Sirius and Remus exchanged an awkward glance. 

"Who is it?" Lauren demanded. "What happened?" Arthur looked slightly worried now. 

"Mad-eye, Bill, and Fleur aren't back yet and the rest are alive,  but George..." Remus trailed off. Arthur bolted into the house and Lauren followed him. In the house, George lay on the couch, one side of his head a bloody mess- and missing an ear, Lauren noticed. But other then that, he seemed fine. Sounds came from outside, signaling that more were back. Bill trudged ruefully into the house, a sorrowful expression on his face. 

"Mad-eye's dead."he said slowly. Lauren gasped.
