Lost Sister, Found Uncle

Chapter 12: Family

“A Seer? You got to be kidding.” Severus said.

“No, I’m not. Listen,

I found out I was a seer after I turned seventeen. I had got little flashes all my life, but my magic was bound until I was seventeen. That was why I was so sick in the beginning of the year. I don’t know why Dumbledore did it for, but I do know that I would have found out that we were siblings long before now. Then life would have been a lot different. Lucius, I know that you are a spy just like Severus is. I will warn you that Narcissa knows that you’re a spy and she is extremely curious about Severus. Watch your backs. Harry needs you both.

Lucius looked at Severus and Harry to see their reactions. If he was to admit it, he wasn’t expecting what he heard next.

“I already knew that Mum was a Seer. Do you think it was easy to do so bad at Divination when you’re the son of a Seer?” Harry asked.

“That was on purpose?” Severus said.

“Of course it was. You know that most of my work was on purpose. I couldn’t let anyone find out that I am a Seer. That is my secret. That is how I always got away from Tom or his Death Eater’s just in time. But something is wrong. If I am as strong or stronger then my Mum, I should have more visions. All I get are little flashes here and there.” Harry said.

“Shit.”

Severus and Harry looked at Lucius. They could see the building anger on Lucius’ face and in his eyes.

“Uncle?” Harry said.

Lucius looked at Harry and calmed down very fast. That was the first time Harry called him that. He could see know that they already had a bond starting.

“Ayden was just talking about this, Harry. If I am right and I really hope I’m wrong, but your magic is bound along with your ability as a Seer.” Lucius said.

“And we already know who did it to Ayden.” Severus said.

“Now, how are we going to find out if I am right and how to unbind Harry?” Lucius said.

“Gringotts.” Harry said.

“Excuse me.” Lucius said.

“We go to Gringotts and talk to one of the goblins. That’s what Mum did. She wrote about how she went to Gringotts and the goblins unbound her. She also said that the goblins would know that we know the truth when we all walk in together. She had told them I would.” Harry said.

“Now, I believe we should talk to Draco while we all are here. Sooner would be better.” Severus said. “Then we can talk about when to go to Gringotts.”

“I could go get him.” Harry said.

Severus glanced at Lucius and nodded. “Go ahead, Harry. If anyone stops you about being out after curfew, tell them to come see me.”

Harry smiled. “Of course, Professor.”

Severus gave Harry’s arse a smack when he stood. Harry just laughed and walked out of the room.

Lucius had watched Harry and Severus interact with amusement. He could see just how close Harry had gotten to Severus. It was quite amazing actually. Lucius knew that no one had or probably ever be as close to Severus as Harry. He wasn’t even that close in ways and he had known the man since he was eleven years old.

“How did you become so close to Harry, Severus? It looks as if you two don’t even have to talk to know what the other is thinking or feeling.” Lucius said.

“Actually, I had been wondering that myself. But since I read Ayden’s letter, I think I know how and why.” Severus said.

Draco looked up from his potions book when he heard the door close. Walking over to him was Harry. Draco wasn’t sure what it was but something about Harry reminded him of his father.

“Draco, Severus and I would like to talk to you in his quarters.” Harry said.

“He does? What for?” Draco asked.

“Well, it has to do with your Father.” Harry said.

“Is he okay?” Draco asked.

Harry smiled a little. “Yes, he is fine. Come, he’s waiting.”

Draco closed his book and put it down on the small table beside the chair. He then stood.

"Then let's go." Draco said.
