[Harry Potter] No Escape from the Sea

Cassiel Garcia has a pair of rather unreliable parents and a childhood friend who's just as unreliable.

Mom says, "Baby, I can hardly believe you're already this grown up."

Dad says, "I hope you'll cause less trouble once you start school."

Then she boards the Hogwarts Express.

She thought she could begin a happy journey of learning, but she didn't expect her friend to pick a fight with someone on the train.

James explains, "He started it."

Later, James forms a group with two other people, and Cassiel discovers that one of them is Sirius Black, whom she met at a party when she was little.

She sighs and rubs her forehead.

[Warnings]

* Pairing: Sirius Black x Cassiel Garcia (original heroine)

* First-person narration

* Original setting: Peter is sorted into Slytherin. Tom Riddle does not become, and will not become, Voldemort.

Riddle's upbringing is different, so he is very much unlike his original portrayal!
