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.

Hello Emily. I loved it all. Very moving, and touching. Posting late like I'm now unfortunately and unintentionaly doing, makes it hard to say anything that hasn't already been said. I'm sorry. You are very talented in your writing and you deserve better. You bring life to your story, and allow us to view the pictures in our minds, as we read each sentence.

"So kiss me and smile for me. Hold me like you’ll never let me go,
I can help you out with this if you like. It's from one of my favorite songs. "Leaving On A Jet Plane" by Chantel Kreviazuk. It was sung by various artists, my favorites being, Peter Paul and Mary, John Denver, and also, Roger Whittaker. Peter Paul and Mary being my favorite.
Great post as always Emily. I'll be watching for more.

NEW POST!
Their wedding party walked to the outskirts of Hogsmeade and then Apparated back to the Burrow for the reception. There was a huge white tent in the backyard that held music, chairs, candles, and love.
Everyone was waiting inside with rice as Emily and George walked through the opening of the tent. They were bombarded with it as soon as their feet hit the ground on the other side. Emily and George giggled happily as rice went everywhere. A few fellow Gryffindor students, including Connie and Kerri, hugged them and told them their congratulations. The only decent Slytherins around, Abi, Lauren, and Sarah-Jane got to them next, followed by the Ravenclaw triplets, Kit, Sophie, and Katie.
Before their first dance, Emily threw the bouquet. Many girls were lined up behind them, from Connie and Abi, to Katie Bell, Alicia Spinnet, Tonks, Hermione, and Ginny. Angelina stayed far in the back, pouting the whole time. But her behavior didn’t bother Emily or George in the slightest.
Tonks caught the bouquet, surprising everyone. Emily glanced at Remus, whose face paled even more as Tonks turned red and met his gaze. Emily sniggered as George wound his arms around her waist.
“And now for the first dance as husband and wife,” the Minister said. All of their guests gathered around, leaving a wide circle for George and Emily to dance in.
“What song did you pick?” George whispered as he wrapped his arms tightly around her waist, hers tightly around his neck.
“Evidently we were both in the mood for Shania,” Emily giggled. George chuckled, kissing her neck as the music filled the air.
In your arms I can still feel the way you want me when you hold me
I can hear the words you whispered when you told me
I can stay right here forever in your arms
And there ain’t no way-I’m lettin’ you go now
And there ain’t no way-and there ain’t no how
I’ll never see that day...
‘Cause I’m keeping you forever and for always
We will be together all of our days
Wanna wake up every morning to your sweet face-always
“So, are you enjoying the party, Mrs. Weasley?” George asked quietly.
“Mmmhmm,” Emily sighed. “I love you, Mr. Weasley,” she whispered.
“Forever and Always,” he whispered back as his lips caught hers.
Mmmm, baby
In your heart-I can still hear a beat for every time you kiss me
And when we’re apart, I know how much you miss me
I can feel your love for me in your heart
Ain’t there ain’t no way-I’m letting you go now
And there ain’t no way-and there ain’t no how
I’ll never see that day...
‘Cause I’m keeping you forever and for always
We will be together all of our days
Wanna wake up every morning to your sweet face-always
(I wanna wake up every morning)
In your eyes-I can still see the look of the one who really loves me
The one who wouldn’t put anything else in the world above me
(I can still see love for me) I can still see love for me in your eyes
(I still see the love)
And there ain’t no way-I’m lettin’ you go now
And there ain’t no way-and there ain’t no how
I’ll never see that day...
“Wherever you go, I go,” he whispered against her forehead.
Emily nodded. “I wouldn’t have it any other way.”
‘Cause I’m keeping you forever and for always
We will be together all of our days
Wanna wake up every morning to your sweet face-always
‘Cause I’m keeping you forever and for always
We will be together all of our days
Wanna wake up every morning to your sweet face-always
Emily pulled back to look at George. They both started singing the last verse.
“I’m keeping you forever and for always
I’m in your arms.”
Emily leaned up on her tiptoes and kissed George lightly on the lips. The music ended and everybody clapped, a few had tears in their eyes. And then they were surrounded.
Emily and George were hugged and kissed from too many people to account for, some coming back for seconds.
“Alright, alright, everyone back away from the bride—she needs to change into her other dress,” Ginny said loudly with a smile.
George kissed Emily’s cheek. “Hurry back to me,” he whispered. Everyone laughed.
“Don’t worry, I couldn’t stay away for long.” Emily took Ginny’s hand as she, Ginny, and Tonks went inside the Burrow and into Ginny’s room. Hermione and McGonagall followed shortly after.
“So, Mrs. Weasley, how are you feeling?” Hermione asked with a chuckle.
“Perfect,” Emily sighed. The ladies laughed lightly at her as Ginny helped her get out of her wedding dress. Emily put on her “party dress” slowly. The fabric was made of satin and looked magnificent against her hair. It dropped at the waist with a lace skirt. It was knee length and a deep sea green that matched just about everything at her wedding.
“You look so beautiful, Ems,” Hermione said as she took the veil out of her hair.
“Thanks, Hermione. You look amazing too, I’m sure Ron can’t keep his eyes off of you,” Emily giggled.
“What? No, Ron and I aren’t—he doesn’t—I don’t,” she stuttered. Ginny and she giggled at Hermione’s pink face.
McGonagall, who had changed back into her robes the first chance she got, gave Emily a hug. “Your mother and father would be very proud of you, Emily,” she said.
“Thank you, professor. I miss him so much,” she whispered.
“He’ll always be with you in your heart,” Tonks said. Tonks and McGonagall gave Emily one last look before going back outside to join the party.
“George is going to melt when he sees you!” Ginny gushed.
“Oooh, I can’t wait to see his face when you walk out there,” Hermione agreed.
“Oh, stop it, you guys,” Emily hushed. The three girls giggled as they made their way back outside.
*Okie dokie, Forever and For Always is written by Shania Twain and R.J. Lange and performed by SHnaia Twain. I must have been in a Shania mood the day I wrote the whole wedding. But, I thought this song does apply with the whole Forever and Always stuff... Anyhoo, the second half of the reception will come soon Probably Saturday... Let me know watchya think
Hi Emily. Very nice post. Sweet all the way through. I'm honored you used my name in there. Sweet of you. Better keep your eye on her that she doesn't stalk Harry though. Teasing, you know I would never do that.

Who invited her?!?!??!?!?!? Or was it an open invitation wedding? Oh well, Emily and George weren't bothered at all. Good for them.

“So, are you enjoying the party, Mrs. Weasley?” George asked quietly.

How cute was that!?!?!?!?!
Quote:
“George is going to melt when he sees you!” Ginny gushed.
Ummm, I think George has already melted. I'm pretty sure he will have other feelings when he sees her.
The dress is lovely. I'm with you though, I think it would be more comfortable knee length.

I loved this post!!! PARTY PARTY PARTY!!!!
Thanks for putting us in the post. Fabulous Ravenclaws Sophie, Kit and Katie!!! Sophie texted me and said we were in the post but I was slightly confused but now I'm happy.
I loved the awkward Hermione part. She loves him, I think she fell in love wit him and it was meant to be when he slayed a troll for her (Philosopher's Stone)
My aunt danced to a Shania Twain song as her first dance but I can't remeber which one it was.
