"Prophase" Aquila answered after she looked into the microscope. Edward raised a brow at her.

"Do you mind if I check?" he asked.

"You don't trust me?" She dramatically gasped with her hands on her chest looking offended. Edward rolled his eyes playfully at her.

It has been two weeks since Aquila started join Forks High School, two weeks since Edward Cullen became her friend. Two weeks since Edward, Alice and Jasper felt the desire of drinking human blood. They haven't felt the need to hunt either. In between those two weeks, Rosalie became a little more civil towards Aquila while Emmett was a lot more welcoming. The Black witch started to sit with the Cullens, bringing them bloodpops everyday. Neither parties asked questions.

"Prophase."

"Like I said." Aquila said with a smug smirk, writing the answer on their worksheet.

"Whatever you say Cal." Edward switched the slides. "Anaphase."

"May I?" Aquila asked. It was Edward's turn to roll his eyes while sliding the microscope towards her. "Anaphase." Aquila said which made Edward to grin smugly.

"Like I said."

The two of them continued to tease each other focusing on their own little world. They didn't notice, or rather ignored, the heated glares of a certain brunette sitting behind AquilaWith new friends came new enemies. Bella, Jessica and a blonde named Lauren had teamed up to criticize her but Aquila Callisto Black was never bothered but other people's opinions. I mean she did survive Hogwarts where everyone saw her as the next Sirius Black the mass murderer and Bellatrix Lestrange the murderous psychopath. She was treated like a junior deatheater for Godric's sake! Being called an attention seeker, slut, flirt and bitch are a major glow down when it comes to insults.

After winning the golden onion, Aquila and Edward walked towards their next lesson. Aquila decided to pull a little prank on Edward.

"You know your eyes are cool. They were black on the first day but now they're gold." Aquila said out of nowhere.

Edward froze, not knowing what to reply. "It's...the fluorescent."

Aqulia wanted to laugh so badly. She faced the poor vampire and looked at him in the eyes. With her metamorphmagus ability, she copied Edward's eye color for a split second. Edward's jaw dropped at what he saw.

"How did you--"

"It's the fluorescent." Aquila answered nonchalantly while she skipped happily towards her next lesson leaving a very confused vampire in the verge of a mental breakdown.

Edward couldn't bring himself to approach Aquila after their encounter. All he could do was watch her as she played one of her favorite pieces, River Flows In You. When their class ended, Aquila left hastily because she had to answer a call. This is why he wasn't able to walk with her. But he did hear her say a name. A boy's name which made him feel jealous. Thanks to his enhanced hearing, he could hear their conversation.

"If it isn't Harry Potter."

"Willa! Oh my godric you're alright. You're safe. Wait you're safe right?" Aquila could hear the desperation in her godbrother's tone.

"I'm fine, Hazzah. I'm not the one who lives in the same country with that noseless git." Aquila answered. "You called?"

"Willa, you know I love you right?"

"I know, Hazzah. Why the sudden 'I love you'? You only say that when you'd ask for some of my treacle tarts." She teased. Her playful grin faltered as she heard Harry's sight.

"I love Ron and Hermione but you ...You're my person, the most important person in my life." She heard Harry's voice broke

"I know Harry. It had been you and me. It will be you and me, always." Aquila said trying to comfort Harry.

Little did Aqulia know, a certain bronze haired vampire can hear her. Aquila was standing right across the parking lot while Edward and his siblings are standing beside their car.

"Jealous Eddie?" Emmett teased. Edward only glared at his brother.

But Emmett was right. Hearing her words made him jealous. Who is this Harry Potter? Who is he in Aquila's life?

"Aquila Black and Harry Potter, the next generation Potter-Black duo, the Marauders' legacy, the Stag and the Star. You will always have me dear cousin. After all Dadfoot was adopted by the Potters." They lightly laughed together at what Aquila said.

"So they're cousins. No need to be jealous Edward." Jasper smirked at Edward who rolled his eyes again. But he couldn't hide the relief he felt and Jasper seems to feel it too.

"So spill the issue Hazzah. What's happening there while I'm stuck in America?"

"We... Have obtained Salazar's locket. Did you know Regulus Black was the one that stole the locket from the cave? He gave it to Kreacher who was trying to destroy it but had failed. Then Mundungus Fletcher stole it and gave it to Umbridge--" he was cut off by Aquila's groan.

"That bitch is still alive? I'm surprised Firenze didn't finish that pink toad."

"Apparently, she got away and became the Head of the Muggle-born Registration Commission and had been imprisoning muggle-borns..."

Aquila was busy listening to Harry's update. She was furious. It's taking all of her willpower to prevent her hair to change color. With her stuck in her furious and worried state, she didn't even see the Tyler's van heading towards her direction. Edward's eyes looked at Aquila with horror sa Aquila spun around and saw the van heading her way.

Aquila didn't know what to do. She's too shocked to move and too disoriented to find a solution. She can't use magic in front of muggles. So she did the most stupid thing she had ever done, more stupid than facing a troll without much knowledge, stealing the sorcerer's stone so that her professor can't resurrect Voldemort, killing a basilisk, challenging dementors, facing her werewolf uncle in a full moon, hexing anyone who bullies her godbrother in public, challenging Umbitch in a duel and duelling her bloodthirsty Aunt in the astronomy tower. Everything she did was driven by her Gryffindor courage.

Now her Gryffindor courage is missing sa she squints her eyes close, waiting for the van to hit her.

"This is a lame way to die." Was her last words. Or at least she thought would be her last words.

Edward came out of nowhere and knock her down, pinning her on the ground. The van almost rammed her motorcycle but it spun around instead because Edward's hand reached out and pushed the van away. His hand created a deep dent of the van's body as it shuddered to a stop, a foot waay from Aquila.

Fear was evident in his eyes. It touched Aquila's heart. She felt thankful that Edward saved her but also worried because there is a chance his secret would be revealed. Aquila is pretty sure he was across the parking lot. He used his enhanced speed to get to her which can expose them.

She was about to say something when screams, yells bad call for help began. People leaped to Tyler's aid while most came to check on Edward and Lyra. She was about to say something to Edward again but the commotion mixed with her shock made her feel dizzy that her visions turned black.

A/N:

I was planning to update this story daily but then I had to go to my dad's place so...nevermind that.

Anyway, you can already see the huge difference in the story. Edward didn't disappeared from school in two weeks. I'd like to utilize those two weeks to build Edward and Aquila's friendship because just like what Elsa says, 'You can't marry a man you just met'. Or in Aquila and Edward's case, 'You can't be with someone you just know for days just because you figured he's a vampire'.

Harry and Aquila having James and Sirius' relationship is just cute. I'll dive into their connection more in the future, just after the first book in twilight and after the war.

Yes I'll include the Battle of Hogwarts in this story because why not?

Draco bullies Harry a lot, much to Aquila's displeasure, because he felt like Harry is stealing his beloved cousin.
