AUTHOR�S NOTE:
Again, thank you for waiting so patiently for the next chapter. I didn�t want to post rubbish, so it�s taken
me a while to shift through my raw ideas and get it ready for posting. Hope you enjoyed it. Please, REVIEW and let me know what you
think. Feel free to email me too.

Sarah sighed as she pulled into the
driveway of Gatewood House. Her car gave
a shudder as she pulled it to a stop.
�Damn,� she thought, �This one�s way beyond repair. Now I�ll have to spend the money to get a new
one, on top of everything else! Damn,
damn, DAMN!�

There were a few people home, but
nobody talked to her and she didn�t talk to them. Gabriel took a quick moment to help get the
glass out of her skin and set a few healing charms in place before the hopped
ie she shower. Mud, blood, ash, and
whatever else she�d gotten into sloshed down the drain. She�d washed the worst of it off standing
under the hose outside in the garden.
She wished her spirit could be cleansed as easily; just as easily put to
rest in something that might make it reborn as life. She dried using an old black towel to hide
the stains of fresh blood, dripping from re-opened wounds. A few bandages later and she headed to her
room to change.

She preferred the Muggle way of
healing wounds�it felt more real to her.
She wanted to keep her pain. She
wanted to remind herself of the cost of keeping others alive... of keeping
things right and true.

Dressed in old jeans with holes in
them, a black leotard, and combat boots and shovinr har hair into a worn
baseball cap, Sarah threw another similar outfit into a duffel bag and checked
on Harry for the hundredth time that hour.
She kissed his forehead and laid a pale hand on Chloe�s sleeping
face. She blew a breath of healing onto
Harry�s lips, and left the room, closing the door softly behind her.

Downstairs, she swiped a bottle of
vodka and lit up an herbal cigarette.
Exhaling the smoke, she threw raisins and bottle of Gatorade into the
duffel. Making a mental note to stop at
the pharmacy and pick up more painkillers, she stuck the vodka into the bag and
filled a bottle with water. After
grabbing some Nutri-Grain bars, she left the house without anybody knowing she
was there. With one last look at her
bedroom window, she started in mild surprise when Nia came walking out of the
shed. She was wearing one of Nadia�s old
summer dresses in a casual floral print.
It suited her.

Sarah�s expression was hard to read. Her dark mahogany eyes had a dark blue mist
over them for a few seconds before clearing.
She sighed then, and Nia thought she could see bursts of white in her
eyes, but it may have been a trick of the sun.
The moment was over when Sarah abruptly kissed her cheek and strode
purposefully to her truck.

Nia watched her peel out of the
parking lot and driveway at breakneck speed, her arms wrapped around herself
and her eyes almost unfocused. Then she
turned and went into the shed to finish potting the rosemary.

A few weeks later, early June of
1999, Gatewood House:

�When Sarah gets back....� Nadia
sighed. When Sarah gets back... and when the hell will that be?! she wondered.
Dear God, the stress was getting to her.
She understood what had to be done, and did her part to help... but
Gods, she wished she could be out there with her sister, and not stuck in the
kitchen with a Death Eater�s brat on the way.
STOP RIGHT THERE! she
commanded herself, Don�t you dare go down
that road. You�re doing your part
here... it�s just a different role this time.
And my baby is not a Death
Eater�s brat... it�s MY BABY. Mine...

�When Sarah gets back... what? What then, Nadia? We can�t wait for her!� Saskia interrupted
her thoughts.

�When Sarah gets back, maybe we�ll
get some more answers for Harry,� Nadia replied calmly, hands folded neatly
over her swollen belly. �Have some
faith, Saskia.�

�Hey, I�m sorry, babe. I just... hate the waiting for her. It�s worse when waiting for her.�

�I know,� Nadia stated
quietly. Of all of them, Sarah was the
worst case in the end, and yet she would still believe that the dawn would
follow the midnI�m trying... we�re all breathing
a little bit easier. We�ll be a family
again, just like it used to be. You�d be
proud of him, Lily...

Her throat constricted suddenly,
and she wheezed out a coughing fit. She
spit out blood. She had managed enough
healing spells to heal the worst of the damage, but for some reason, healing
magic never worked quite well on her family.
It never worked just the way it was supposed to; healing the injury most of the way, but not completely. Hence, she and her blood relatives preferred
to heal slowly by Muggle methods. Sarah
often used a combination of two two realms of medicine.

Against what she knew to be better judgment,
Sarah rummaged through the glove compartment and swallowed some pain pills
dry. She lit up the second last
cigarette of her third pack. She had two
more packs left. Blowing the smoke out the
open window, she felt herself getting dizzy and tired again. She finished off the last of her vodka and caffeine,
which had gone warm by now. Her lower
lip split and started bleeding again.
She sucked on it absently, snubbing the remnant of the steamy dream she�d
had the last time she�d grabbed some sleep before it even planted itself into
her head, and switched on the radio.

She frowned when she realized that
the Dementor attacks were getting closer to some of her safe-houses than she
liked. Damn, more time off my ass, she grumbled in her head, and I really need a shower. Gods I stink.

Oh
hells... not another damned drunk driver... yeah, yeah, asshole�fuck you
too. Y tu Mama tambien!

She sighed heavily, and cursing
under her breath, she took the next exit and turned the car around.

She just couldn�t leave Arabella
Figg in the open like that.

AUTHOR�S NOTE: Sorry that took so long. I�ve gotten some hits... but come on
guys! Review me! Let me know what you�re thinking... whether I�m
too slow, too complicated, if I should focus more on Gatewood House or
Hogwarts... I mean, you guys breathe, right?
So then you have opinions. Let me
know what they are!

By the way... check out my non-fanfiction stuff at www.fictionpress.net
where I have all of my REAL Gatewood House stories. Hopefully, one day, they�ll be anthologized
into a book!
