Alrighty, so this is my first go at a fanfic and I hope I don't disappoint. This story adds a character to the Wizarding World. It will stay as close to canon as possible but will have to adjust a bit to the new character. This story also shows a new side to Lupin. The main character is Sirius' daughter and Lupin's Goddaughter, which also brings me to the fact that Lupin wasn't ever homeless or alone... At least not in my story... EVERYTHING in the Wizarding world belongs to the amazing, incredible JK Rowling, except of course the character I invented. The locations, people, etc. are hers and only hers. So, here goes.

Prologue:
On a dark and misty night, in Surrey, a baby boy was being taken to his Aunt and Uncle’s house. His parents had just been murdered by the greatest evil ever seen, and he was now an orphan. But this is not a story about Harry James Potter, The Boy Who Lived. This story takes place a few hours later, in Shell Cottage, where a baby girl was being transferred to her Godfather’s.
A tabby looking cat with squared markings shaping her eyes stood on the corner of Shell Cottage and Sandy Lane. She had been on that same corner for a little over an hour. Glancing around, she shivered once and then rested her eyes upon a deserted patch of pavement right under a lamppost. After what seemed like ten minutes, there was a flicker of movement from a nearby bush. A man in long dress-robes and a pointed wizard’s hat stepped out into the light and clicked a cigarette lighter look alike. The closest light went out. After clicking it multiple times, the whole street was completely black. In the strange looking man’s other arm was a bundle of pink blankets with the softest sound of heavy breathing. The tabby cat transformed, for a second time that night, into her “human form.”
“Good Evening, Professor Dumbledore,” stated the witch as she walked up to him, her emerald robes billowing out behind her.
“Good Evening, or shall I say morning, Professor McGonagall,” smiled the tall wizard. “Long time, no see,” he chuckled.
“Albus, is it true? Did Sirius really betray them? His best friend, Albus?”
“I’m afraid the truth is not always easily seen, Minerva. We may never know what has truly happened. But, what I do know is that Sirius was found in a street with twelve muggles dead and only a finger left of Peter Pettigrew. He has been taken to Azkaban, and Amelia, going after him, found herself in the crossfire. I don’t know if Sirius will ever be able to forgive himself for that.”
“What will happen to Emily?”
“That, Minerva, is what brings us to another neighborhood tonight. I think it will be best if we take her to her godfather’s house. I think he will want to take her.”
“First Harry and now Emily; what has the world come to?”
“Ahh, Minerva, let’s not dwell upon the unpleasant. Once again, think of what has happened. He is gone, for now at least.”
“So, you don’t think he’s gone for good?”
“Only time can tell. Shall we get her inside?” asked Dumbledore, indicating the pink bundles in his hand.
The witch nodded, and they glided down the street. As they walked, they felt the light breeze linger in the air. The smell of the ocean swirled around them, stinging their nostrils a bit. Staying on the out-skirt of the street, they rounded right before stopping in front of a white cottage with flowers outlining the walk to the door. There was a dim light through one of the upstairs’ windows. Dumbledore and McGonagall made their way to the door, then knocked three times. While they waited, Dumbledore hummed a show tune and McGonagall stared at the baby they were about to hand off. They heard footsteps echo through the house, lights flipping on as they grew louder. The footsteps stopped and a man’s eyes could be seen peeping out the curtain. After realizing whom it was, a mediocre, straggly man with wild hair and deep circles under his green eyes opened the door.
“Albus, Minerva, what brings you to my neck of the woods?” asked the man, eyeing the two. He then noticed the pink blankets. His eyes widened and he nearly choked. “No, it can’t be. There’s been a mistake. Please tell me it’s not that, anything but that. They’re not...”
Albus held up his hand. “Dear boy, we can’t afford to lose you too, please calm down, Remus. Everything will be all right. May we enter?” Albus asked.
The man named Remus motioned for them to enter. After closing the door behind them, he made his way to the living room. Minerva and Albus sat side-by-side on the long couch while Remus took the armchair opposite them. Minerva took the baby girl from Albus’ hands and rocked her gently. Remus leaned his head back against the chair; he looked ghastly. He had turned pale white and was shaking slightly. Opening his eyes, he looked over at the pink blankets where he knew his goddaughter was hiding.
“Remus, we need to talk about a few things,” stated Dumbledore softly, but sternly. Remus nodded so Dumbledore continued. “Sirius was found in the middle of a street with his wand; twelve muggles are dead, but that’s not all. Not only muggles were in that street.” Albus was staring into Remus’ eyes with a sad expression. He felt sorry for Remus Lupin; he was about to tell him that he has lost all of his best friends—James, Peter, and even Sirius in some ways. Remus nodded, as if knowing what was about to be said. “It was believed that Peter Pettigrew searched for Sirius tonight to kill him for his betrayal against James and Lily. All they found of Pettigrew was his finger. Also, Amelia; she heard that Sirius might have been in trouble. She went after him and got blasted in the crossfire. I’m so sorry, Remus, I know this is difficult for you,” Dumbledore continued.
Silence followed after Dumbledore finished. Remus had tears welling up in his eyes. He couldn’t believe it. Prongs was dead. Lily was dead. Wormtail was dead. Amelia was dead. Padfoot was in Azkaban for causing the deaths. Everything was crumbling around him. He let a few tears escape before wiping them off. McGonagall took a tissue from the inside of her robes and sniffled behind it. She, too, was crying. Remus got out of his chair and knelt down in front of Professor McGonagall, looking at his goddaughter intently. A pale pink hand dropped out of the pink bundles, and Remus reached up, putting his forefinger inside it. The little fist closed around Remus’ finger.
“Albus, what happens to Emily?” asked Remus, looking up. He searched the old man’s face.
“She doesn’t have any living grandparents, Remus. She is your goddaughter, so I thought we might give you a chance to take her. If you do not wish to take responsibility, we understand and will take her to an orphanage first thing tomorrow morning,” stated Dumbledore.
“Of course I’ll take her,” said Remus without thinking.
“She is going to be a great responsibility, Remus, are you absolutely positive?” asked Professor McGonagall.
“I wouldn’t have it any other way, Minerva,” stated Remus determinedly.
“It’s settled then. I will need you to sign a few papers, just saying that you will be her guardian and what not, and we will be on our way,” smiled Dumbledore.
Remus nodded his head and motioned for the old wizard to follow him to the kitchen to sign the papers. McGonagall stayed in the living room with the baby girl sound asleep. Flipping the lights as he went, the tabby looking man sat at the head of the table, Dumbledore sitting on his left. Dumbledore rummaged in his cloak for a second, then pulled out a long stick. With a flick of his wand, some papers, a quill, and ink appeared. Remus looked into Dumbledore’s eyes and had the feeling that he was being x-rayed; like Dumbledore could see right through him. The old wizard gave him a small smile, nodding a bit.
“Sign here and here.” Dumbledore indicated to two lines then pushed the papers towards Remus.
Remus signed the papers, and with the flick of his wand, Dumbledore made the papers once again disappear.
“Is that all?” Remus asked.
“Yes, that will be all for now. I believe the ministry is looking over Amelia’s will and then they will be in touch shortly. Now, I believe we will let you and your goddaughter get some rest. Best wishes and if you were to need anything, please don’t hesitate to send an owl.” The old wizard pushed his chair out and stood up. Walking into the other room, he stated, “Minerva, I think it may be time for us to leave and not intrude on Mr. Lupin any longer.”
Standing up, the petite witch looked over to Lupin and took half a step. Remus met her the rest of the way and took the baby girl in his hands, balancing all of her weight evenly. The tabby wizard walked his guests to the door and bid them a goodnight. He watched as the two disappeared down the dark street. Closing the blinds, Remus Lupin walked up his stairs to his bedroom, flipping lights off as he went.
Pulling out his wand with his right hand, as his left was preoccupied, he waved it. A blur of pink and green scurried around the room, and after a few seconds, the silence prevailed. Trudging over to the pink crib by his bed, he sat the pink bundles down. He pulled a green blanket, which was engraved with ‘Emily J. R. A. S. Black,’ over the side of the crib and tucked Emily into it. Sighing, he sat down on the edge of his bed. Taking off his worn out tennis shoes, he glanced at the clock. It was after 2AM. It’s been a long day, he thought. Turning the lamp by his bed off, he lay back on his pillows and fell asleep to the soft breathing of the other life that he vowed to protect.
Ahhhhhhhhhh!!! THAT IS SOOOOOOOOOOOOOO EVIL! WHY IS GEORGE CRYING? WHY IS EMILY COLD! EMILY- TELL US NOW! I MAY NOT LIVE TO SEE THE WHATS GOING TO HAPPEN!!!! PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE TELL US NOW! I BET IT'S DEATH EATERS OR DRACO HAS NEVER REALLY GOT OVER HER! SEE WHATS HAPPENING. MY BRAIN IS GOING WILD!

Please give us a little more!!
*Looks at you innocently* What do you mean--evil?? :evillaugh I guess you'll have to wait a while to find out... And when I mean a while, I mean a long while. That part is near the end.
The next few weeks were filled with studying and homework. George and Fred were busy at their shop and Emily was busy with her studies, so Emily usually only saw George at night, when he came home. Remus didn’t come back to surprise her anymore. He stayed with the other werewolves as a spy. The Apparition lessons came with February, but Emily had already passed her test, being a year older than her classmates.
When March arrived, George started becoming more peculiar. Emily knew it had to do with her birthday on the fourth, but George wouldn’t say. On the first, Emily went to the shop with some bad news. To her surprise, the workers told her that the twins had gone to Hogsmeade. Emily quickly Apparated to the village and headed for Zonko’s. She knew they were going to try to buy it. She noticed their red hair and started flaying her arms in the air to get their attention.
“George! Fred!” Emily said as she ran up to them.
“Emily? Is everything okay?” Fred asked as George spun around.
“It’s Ron! Ginny just mirrored me! He was poisoned!” she said through deep breaths. Fred and George just stared at her for a second longer.
“Oy! Didn’t you hear her? My brother’s been poisoned! Get out of our way!” Fred yelled to the cluster of people that blocked their way to the gate. They all hurried to get out of their way. George held Emily’s hand as the trio ran to the gates of Hogsmeade. Tonks let them in and they hurried up the path to the Infirmary.
Emily and the twins arrived during the evening. Harry, Ginny, and Hermione were all sitting around his bed. Ron’s bed was the only one in use.
“So, all in all, not one of Ron’s better birthdays?” Fred said.
“This isn’t how we imagined handing over our present,” George added as he put a large wrapped gift on Ron’s bedside cabinet. He sat in the chair beside Ginny as Emily perched on top of his lap.
“Yeah, when we pictured the scene, he was conscious.” Fred stared at his brother.
“There we were in Hogsmeade, waiting to surprise him,” George continued.
“You were in Hogsmeade?” Ginny asked as she looked over at him.
“We were thinking of buying Zonko’s. A Hogsmeade branch, you know, but a fat lot of good it’ll do us if you aren’t allowed out at weekends to buy stuff anymore… But never mind that now,” Fred said gloomily. Fred dragged over a chair and sat down.
“How exactly did it happen, Harry?”
Harry explained the story for the trio. Emily looked at him in horror. There was only one person she thought that would have poisoned that wine. But she didn’t voice her opinions.
“Blimey, it was lucky you thought of a bezoar,” George said quietly. Emily grabbed his hand that was wound around her waist. She didn’t want to think about what ifs.
“Lucky there was one in the room,” Harry said.
Emily didn’t want to think about any of this. She didn’t want to think about who was supposed to get the wine or what would have happened if Harry couldn’t find a bezoar. And she definitely didn’t want to think about who had done it.
She squeezed George’s hand once and then pried it away from her waist. She stood up slowly and muttered something about the library. George was too worried about Ron to question her, so he let her go.
Emily made her way down to the Quidditch Pitch. She needed some air and that was a place that could help her with her needs. She went to the changing rooms first and found a spare broom.
As she walked outside, a slight breeze passed by. Her hair twisted round her face as she stepped into the freshly cut grass. She swung her leg over the broom and lifted into the air. She took a deep breath as she flew higher and higher. She lay back on the bristles of the broom and rested her hands on her abdomen. She clutched tightly to her stomach, her hands over her belly button. Emily let a few tears release as the half moon shone brightly over head.
“Wanna talk about it?” whispered somebody to Emily’s left. Emily lifted her head slowly to see Tonks on her own broom.
Emily sat up on her borrowed broom, her hands still clutching her stomach. Tonks eyes followed down to Emily’s hands as Emily looked down too. Tonks’ eyes widened slightly.
“Oh,” she said simply. Emily met her eyes.
“I don’t know for certain,” Emily whispered.
“Do you want to go find out?” Tonks asked softly. Emily nodded as they made their way to the ground. “Does George know?”
“No, I haven’t told anyone. I don’t want to tell him and he be—” Emily began.
“It’s okay, I understand.”
Emily and Tonks made their way to the gate. Tonks opened it and then resealed it. Tonks took hold of Emily’s hands and Apparated her to St. Mungo’s. Tonks took her up to a blonde witch, who was behind a desk. The blonde glanced up at the pair.
“We need to go to the maternity wing,” Tonks said calmly.
“Fifth floor,” the woman said without looking up. Tonks took Emily’s hand and led her to the elevator. They had it to themselves and Tonks pushed the small five.
“Breathe, Emily, everything is fine,” Tonks said quietly. Emily nodded, breathing slowly.
After they got off the elevator, they made their way to the counter. The lady there told them a room number, where they went and waited. About an hour later, a young woman with light brown hair and a heart shaped face walked back into the room with a clipboard.
“Well, Emily, your results came back,” the nurse said slowly. Emily clutched Tonks’ hand tighter and Tonks patted Emily on the back with her other hand. “The results were a negative. You’re not pregnant,” the witch said slowly. Emily’s grip on Tonks loosened and she let out a huge breath. “I know this may be hard for you. False alarms are quite common,” she said quietly.
Emily nodded. “Yeah, I know. Er, thank you for everything,” Emily said quietly.
“I’ll just leave this with you. I need you to sign the bottom and then you can leave it on the bed. You’re welcome to leave whenever you’re ready.” The witch left the clipboard on the bed and left the room. Emily grabbed the papers slowly and signed on the dotted line.
“Are you okay?” Tonks asked quietly.
“Mmmhmm,” Emily murmured. “Let’s just get out of here,” she said quietly. Tonks nodded as Emily hopped off the bed, leaving the clipboard.
“I need to get back to the school. Will you be okay?” Tonks asked as they walked outside. Emily nodded and gave her hug.
“Thanks for coming with me,” she whispered.
“Anytime you need me, I’m here,” Tonks said before she Disapparated.
Emily went back to Shell Cottage and made her way to the backyard of Remus’ house. She climbed the tree that she had climbed so many times before and sat there with her arms around her stomach.
She spent a few hours in the tree, staring at the moon. Emily glanced at her watch and noticed the late hour. She jumped down from the tree and Apparated to her own house.
“Hey, Ginny, are you sure you haven’t seen—Wait! Someone just walked in, it might be her,” George said. She heard him move towards the front door as it clicked closed behind her. She hung her coat in their side closet as he bounded around the corner.
“Emily! Where have you been? I’ve been worried sick about you!” he exclaimed as he pulled her into a hug, the mirror still clutched in his hand.
“Sorry, I…went out,” she said hesitantly as she hugged him back. Her arms wrapped around his waist.
Still holding onto her, he lifted the mirror and spoke to Ginny. “She came back, Gin. I guess she was safe,” he said. Ginny nodded from the mirror as they both hung up. George led Emily over to the couch in the living room, pulling her down beside him.
“I’m sorry I worried you,” she whispered into the crook of his neck.
“It’s okay. Where did you go?” he asked quietly as he kissed her hair.
Emily hesitated before answering. “I had a drink with Tonks,” Emily lied.
“I’m glad you two made up,” he said simply. Emily nodded her agreement.

Not once did I think of pregnancy. Do you get sore stomachs when pregnant?

I'm glad Tonks is there. She's so lovely but I feel bad for her being all on her own

I haven't really read any signs that Emily wanted or was planning a baby, and as she is still at school, I don't know if it would be such a good idea. It's an awful lot of responsibility too at such a young age.

I am too
Great Post Emily. I'm glad she and Tonks are friends again, though I think she should tell George bout her hospital trip and I think she should go and see whats giving her these sore stomachs. If I remember correctly, she had one at Christmas didn't she?
PAMS!
S x

Ummm, not that I have experience in this area, because I don't, but I don't think so... I just had her hands over her stomach like she was kinda holding it in a way... You know how when pregnant women put like one hand under the belly button and one above, like they're cradling it?... Does that make sense?

Me too; Tonks is one of my favorites.

I haven't really put any signs in, it was just more of a feeling she had. But I didn't express her having it. And I agree. They are a bit too young for that responsibility, but you never know...

Great Post Emily.
Thanks, Sophie

Sorry, it wasn't christmas, it was just after they moved in - thats the wee number thingy-#694. They were angry with Molly and George was a tad scary-but only a tad, cause we love him so much !

Ohhh, that one! No, she had gotten splinched, that's why she was in pain. It had nothing to do with an actual stomach ache. Haha, and yes we do *glomptackles George*
“It’s Ron! Ginny just mirrored me! He was poisoned!” she said through deep breaths. Fred and George just stared at her for a second longer.
I love how you're able to entertwine with the goings on of the books. I think I mentioned that before, but it's the truth, so I should mention it.

I understand. Emily didn't know weather to be relievd or disappointed. Even when you're not planning on being pregnant, don't want to be pregnant, the negetive result is just something hard to swallow for a bit.
Quote:
“Anytime you need me, I’m here,” Tonks said before she Disapparated.
It's so good they have put things behind them. I'm wondering if Tonks may have been keeping her eye on Emily, just in case there would come a moment Emily might have a change of heart toward her. I'm just glad she did.

Emily hesitated before answering. “I had a drink with Tonks,” Emily lied.
Why would she lie? I feel bad she lied to George.
Great post Emily. I'll be watching for your notice saying you posted.

Awe, thanks, Connie. I try my best

Umm, she probably thinks that if he had wanted a baby, then he would have been disappointed with it and maybe her. She just didn't know how to tell him, so she didn't...

Emily’s birthday was spent with George when she got home from school. They lounged around, talking. He even made them dinner, in which they ate alone. George set up candles all around their bedroom, trying to make it as romantic as possible. He bought her a silver charm bracelet with a miniature tree and their initials on the trunk. It was a miniature version of their tree.
They were both happy, extremely happy, but there was still a voice in the back of Emily’s head about her recent trip to the hospital. Ever since the trip, she wouldn’t get that close to George. She made up excuses, and he eventually bought them.
When April arrived, Emily received a note from Professor Dumbledore, asking her to meet him after her classes that day. Confused, she waited through her classes with suspicions. After Transfiguration, she made her way up to his office and knocked lightly on the door.
“Enter,” he said.
Emily opened the door, peeking in before she walked fully in. He motioned for her to sit in the chair in front of his desk. She walked slowly to her chair and sat down as he observed her. They sat in silence, looking each other up and down before he broke the silence.
“I’m going to ask something of you, Mrs. Weasley,” Dumbledore said quietly. Emily nodded, but didn’t say anything.
“I’m not going to give you all the details, which is unfair to you, but it still stands. What I or…someone else tells you must be kept secret. You are to not tell a soul, which includes your husband.” He paused.
“Does it have to do with the war that is brewing out there?” Emily asked quietly.
Before answering, he studied her further. Nodding, he said, “Yes, it deals with the war.”
“What exactly can I do that one of the more experienced members of the Order cannot, sir?” she asked as she narrowed her eyes.
“I’m sorry, Mrs. Weasley, but I cannot give you any details until I know that you will take on this mission no matter what I tell you,” he said slowly.
“Why me though?” she asked.
“Because you’re intelligent, quick, trustworthy, and the perfect one for the job. If you ever needed, you could change into your Animagi form and blend in. You’re brilliant with a wand and I know you can keep a secret, because you did it your whole life with Remus.”
Emily studied him for a second to see if he was being serious. “What am I to tell people?”
“Tell them that you’re on your own mission and that I told you to tell nobody, even your husband and Godfather. You mustn’t tell anyone,” he said firmly. Emily nodded. “I’ll let you think about it for a while. I need to know by the end of next week.” Dumbledore sat back in his chair, and Emily took it as a dismissal. She stood up slowly and made her way to the door.
It was next Thursday, and Emily found herself lounging by the lake with Hermione as they studied for a Transfiguration test.
“Oh no, he’s coming over here,” Emily whispered as she glanced to her left. Cody was walking towards them. “I haven’t spoken to him in a while. I better meet him in the middle,” Emily whispered to Hermione.
“Wait, what if you need a wingman?” Hermione asked quickly.
“Er, if I need you, I’ll do this,” she said. Emily flicked her hair over her shoulder and scratched the side of her nose. “And if I don’t need you—I’ll do this,” Emily continued as she twirled a few strands of hair around in her fingers. Hermione nodded as Emily met Cody a little to the side. She turned them around so his back was towards Hermione and she could see Emily.
“Long time no see,” she smiled at him.
“Yeah, it’s almost as if you disappeared,” he laughed. She chuckled lightly at him. “I, er, never got the chance to say congratulations,” he said as he nodded toward her ring. She blushed slightly.
“Yeah, sorry I didn’t invite you to the wedding. It was mainly family,” she said quietly.
“It’s cool,” he shrugged. Emily nodded slightly.
“So, er, how have you been?” she asked.
“Not bad, though our hangout is pretty lonely without you,” he chuckled.
“Ha, I haven’t been there in forever,” she said awkwardly. Emily flicked her hair over her shoulder and scratched her nose as subtly as possible. Hermione grinned and shut her book, coming to her rescue.
“Ems, we’re going to be late,” she said in a chipper voice.
“Oh, right, I almost forgot. I’ll see you around, Cody,” Emily said with a wave as she started backing up with Hermione. They turned round and made their way to class.
“Thanks for the save, it was turning a bit awkward,” Emily whispered.
Ha ha! I would never forget this fanfic! It's my absolute favorite! And I've been reading every chapter as you post them, I just never have the time to reply to them. =] So the PMs are greatly appreciated. Thank you! And this post was great! I actually completely forgot about Cody, ha ha! I've been so entranced with Emily and George, that I forgot about her other endeavors. LOL! But this post was great, I wonder what Dumbledore is making her do... and why she has to keep it from George... it's not like he would tell. And I think she definitely needs to tell George about the pregnancy thing... he's going to get suspicious eventually. And I just know that your evil little mind is planning a huge fight in which George yells at her for not telling him something. Ugh! Anyway... I can't wait for more, so PAMS PAMS PAMS!!!

I actually completely forgot about Cody, ha ha! I've been so entranced with Emily and George, that I forgot about her other endeavors. LOL!
Ahaha, I had forgotten about him too at the time and then I thought about him, and decided he should make an appearance

Bahaha, actually I didn't. Just to throw you for a loop of what I usually do. But if that's what you want...

OMG! I love this post you had me in suspense the whole time...what is the mission that Dumbledore wants her to do? Is she going to be okay? I hope she tells George soon...PAMS! xD
CODY?
What is Cody doing back in it?
Emily should curse him into teeny tiny pieces!
I love it though!
Can't wait for the next bit!

Okie dokie, Let me know whatchya think... And since I realized that I'm probably overflowing your inboxes if you haven't replied to the post, then I'll only PM you for a new post if you've replied to the last one. 
great post Emily 
PAMS
:evillaugh
I love how you're able to entertwine with the goings on of the books. I think I mentioned that before, but it's the truth, so I should mention it. 
Why would she lie? I feel bad she lied to George.
them both!
Hi Emily! Sorry I haven't posted in so long, I've just been so busy with my new semester at school. I just recently joined the Marching Band, so I've been super busy with that. But I have been coming back to check my inbox to see if there's been a new post. Then I got worried because I haven't gotten any mail from you. Lucky I checked the fic. =] I loved this post! It was kind of bittersweet, what with Ron getting poisoned and her not being pregnant and all. But I still love all the love that goes on between Emily and George! SO CUTE!!! =] I can't wait for more posts! I'm dying to know what happens next... so PAMS PAMS PAMS!!!!
