Part One: Past - for the first time in a P/P/F homework i am going to say "write their past as it were when they were alive." You have a minimum of 150 words and a max of 300 words.


Part Two: Present: We all know Sirius dropped off his perch in Book Five, so for his present, write about what he is currently up, just chilling in the veil, playing tennis with James and Lily ... You get my drift. You have a Minimum of 300 words and a Max of 450.

Part Three: Future: Again, we know Sirius makes a ghostly appearance in book 7 but what does he do after that? You decide! Minimum of 300 words Maximum of 600.

You can earn up to 100 points for this homework, it just all depends on you and how much information you give!

Love to you all!

This class moves onto the next term.

Part 1.

Taken from a ‘lonely man’ column.
King Henry is a rather boastful man. His tummy sticks out like a clock tower and his speech is more mumbled than a clueless Shakespearean actor. He enjoys long walks on the stone cobbles, killing off wives, and yelling loudly at servants when they don’t bring the sick bowl fast enough at feasts. However, he has been described by some as ‘a lovely kind man, who will do anything for the one he loves, as long as they can have healthy, handsome, baby boys. You should only answer to this advertisement if you have bore only boys in marriage. You don’t have to be single and ready to mingle. The big man has made himself a church of his own.

Part 2

Siruis climbed up the ladder to heaven singing:
‘I’m goin’ on up to the spirit in the sky,
That where I’m heading now that I’ve died.
Now I’m dead, they can’t lay me to rest,
So I’m goin’ to the place that’s the best!’
Siruis finished the last line off with a very high pitched note and climbed on. The gates to heaven weren’t far from where he was, he could see them, the gold shimmer was almost blinding. There were some people standing outside with signs. They became bigger as he climbed upwards. They were holding things that looked like signs. As he climbed on, he became more curious about what they were doing. Soon he began to hear chants:
‘Let us in! Let us in!
We don’t practise witchcraft!
We’re good we tell you good!
Let us in! let us in!”
Siruis rolled his eyes at the terrible chant, but climbed on. Curious to see the whole show. As he got to the top he could see that they we’re all dressed like muggles from the 70’s. Siruis gave a little giggle at this. He looked around the people looking to find someone that weren’t chanting to ask them what this was all about. The signs had various rude gestures on them; Sirus thought that they weren’t helping the situation very much. There was one girl, who looked like the ringleader, she had long ginger hair, tied up at the back by a bunch of daisies. He walked up to her and tapped her on the back and coughed lightly to get her attention.
“Excuse me, I’ve just died and I was looking for a bit of peace and quiet in heaven... may I ask if this is necessary?” he asked with a polite tone in his voice.
The girl turned around and looked at him. Siruis knew her at once...
“Siruis?” the girl asked
“Lily!” Siruis yelled in surprise.

Part 3.

Spoilers for the 7th book if anyone hasn’t read it.

Part One: Past - for the first time in a P/P/F homework i am going to say "write their past as it were when they were alive." You have a minimum of 150 words and a max of 300 words.

On April 22, 1959, Sirius Black was unfortunately born into the Black family. His parents, Walburga and Orion Black had high hopes for their eldest son, hoping he would uphold their pureblood family honor. After all, they considered having the Black name to practically being royalty. But even as a boy, Sirius didn’t agree. And that was the start of the rift between his family. It grew worst when he arrived at Hogwarts and was put into the Gryffindor house. He became friends with James Potter, Remus Lupin, and Peter Pettigrew and spent his days being a troublemaker.

Soon he had enough of his family and officially moved out at the age of 16, which resulted in him being immediately blasted off the Black family tree. But Sirius didn’t care, he was too busy fighting with James on who got the bigger room in the Potter house. Later he bought his own house with money he inherited from his Uncle Alphard. Sirius then graduated from Hogwarts and joined the Order of Phoenix with his friends. Unfortunately soon after, he was accused of being a traitor and was thrown into Azkaban without a trial.

After being locked up for 12 years, he finally escaped and reunited with his godson, the famous Harry Potter. Even though he was able to prove his innocence to many people, there was still not enough proof and he remained a fugitive. Yet it was all too soon when two years later, he was killed in a battle with his cousin Bellatrix Lestrange and fell through the mysterious veil at the Department of Mysterious and never seen again. Or so people thought.


Part Two: Present: We all know Sirius dropped off his perch in Book Five, so for his present, write about what he is currently up, just chilling in the veil, playing tennis with James and Lily ... You get my drift. You have a Minimum of 300 words and a Max of 450.

Life behind the veil isn’t as boring as many would think. It turns out that dying behind the veil actually gave Sirius Black the ability to move between the mortal world and the spirit world. Something that irritated James to no end as he didn’t get any powers when Voldemort killed him years ago. He was only able to travel to the mortal world when Harry was in grave danger, which made him hope to never see his son again. But Sirius was able to travel between the two worlds as much as he pleased, having the best of both worlds. Although, he still wasn’t able to eat or drink anything which irritates him to no end when he goes to parties. But at least he was able to do more than most spirits. Of course, Sirius always knew that he was ‘special’.

After Sirius disappeared behind the veil and realized he was dead (that was a huge bummer), he immediately went off to find James and Lily to catch up. After a few minutes of talking, he realized that there weren’t that much to say as he wasn’t exactly the life of the party during his 12 years in Azkaban. But it was still fun to hang out with everyone again. It was just like old times, except bloodier and a bit more depressing as everyone seemed to start off their stories with “You know before I died…”

Sirius did not find out about his handy little ability until a few years later when he accidentally fell through the veil and realized that he could enter the mortal world by going back through the veil. Having gone through the first time and dying instantly, it never entered his mind to try and go through the veil again. He was able to travel like a ghost would among living people and still communicate with them. Yet he always went home to his home behind the veil every night as he always floated through the beds in the mortal world.

Although he seemed to have the best of both worlds, he was still considerate of other people’s feeling as he assured Nearly Headless Nick that being in the spirit afterlife was not all it was cracked up to be. For one, everything was so blurry and smoky that he felt the need to get his eyes checked every once in a while. And he assured Lily and James that Harry was perfectly fine and he sends his love everyday.


Part Three: Future: Again, we know Sirius makes a ghostly appearance in book 7 but what does he do after that? You decide! Minimum of 300 words Maximum of 600.

As we all now know of Sirius’s special ability to travel between the living and the spiritual life, he is about to get a lot busier than he thought he would be as nothing comes without strings. As soon as people found out about his ability, he will soon become flooded with requests from the dead and living alike. To pass on messages, reminders, or just well wishes. Truthfully, Sirius soon becomes a personal mailman for everyone he sees. But that’s not the worst part of the job, the worst part is seeing as he cannot physically hold letters, he has to recite them from memory. Something that frustrates him to no end as he soon realizes that this is worst than school as James laughingly reminds him everyday before he leaves to his daily visit to Harry and his kids.

Luckily Lily proves that she’s still as intelligent as she was when she was alive by managing his work schedule for him. Planning his routes, appointments, and times so he would still have his own personal time to do what he wants.

And what can this be you ask? Well, soon after the defeat of Voldemort, Sirius found himself in the same company as though they were still in Hogwarts as the Marauders were reunited once again when Remus and Peter died soon after him. At first Sirius and James were leery about letting Peter hang out with them again but they soon gave in. After all, what was he going to do this time around? Betray them all and kill them again? Not likely.

Even though Snape’s innocence was proved, he still did not hang out with the Marauders as he may have pretended to be evil, but the hate for Sirius was real. Not to mention it was a bit awkward after his love for Lily had been revealed. But Sirius has no problem teasing them about their ‘friendship’ even though James asked him not to. He had to do SOMETHING to make the time pass by quicker. Eternity was a long time. But he equally divides his time between annoying Snape and annoying Voldemort. “Who’s the man? Not moldy Voldy!” was usually enough to make Voldemort’s red eyes pop out.

Of course, he does travel into the living world from time to time, but only on holidays as the more people die, the more he finds that the spiritual world is even more fun than he thought.
