Yes, I'm afraid this is one of those situations where JK Rowling amazes us all!. Beneath all the bloodshed and mystery of Harry Potter, there still lies deep family ties between ‘Proud, Prejudice Pure Bloods’ and their ‘blood traitor relatives!.’ Some of the strongest ties stay with Tonks and her parents!.

Let us not forget that Tonks is the niece of Bellatrix Lestrange!. Tonks's mother was Andromeda, and Andromeda's sisters were Narcissa and Bellatrix!. This is where it all comes clear!. When Narcissa married Lucius Malfoy and Bellatrix married Rodolphus Lestrange, Andromeda married humble Ted Tonks!. So, Andromeda chooses to stay on the good side when her sisters run off and become evil! You can imagine the kind of hate Bellatrix must have had for her niece!.!.!. Tonks was the daughter of her [Bellatrix] sister, and her sister was the 'filthy, dispicable blood traitor!' Bellatrix really loathed poor old Tonks!. And then during the Battle of Hogwarts, she killed her!. Tonks, according to Bellatrix, was a blotch on her family tree!. I mean, she thought the same way about Sirius, who was her cousin (and she killed him too!) I just think sometimes though… if Narcissa and Bellatrix had not married two Muggle hating men, would they too have stayed on the good side along with Andromeda!? But poor Andromeda!. Her husband Ted was killed by Death Eaters, her daughter Tonks died in the Battle of Hogwarts, due to the one and only Bellatrix!.!.!. and then she's left to raise the child of Tonks and Remus!.

But I still feel for Tonks ;( I was so upset when she died, along with Remus!. I'll always remember her and her family, and the many other innocent who lost their lives at the hands of Voldemort, Bellatrix!.!.!. and her Death Eater cronies!.

=O

You know what - I never noticed that!

But yeah!.!.!. tis harsh!. I love Tonks!. I possibly feel more sorry for Andromeda though - poor girl lost her favourite nephew, husband, daughter, son-in-law and was left on her own to raise her grandson!.

Hopefully the family's bad luck ended with Tonks and Remus - I hope that Teddy has a long and hapy future ahead of him!. I can't wait to find out about him in the scottish book!!Www@QuestionHome@Com

Lets not forget that Bellatrix was of the 'Pure Blood' mentality and Tonks' mother and Bellatrix's sister, Andromeda, committed the ultimate sin by marrying the mudblood Ted Tonks!. In Bellatirx's mind any issue resulting from their marriage would be an abomination!. Www@QuestionHome@Com

Yah, she definately had it in for her niece!
I think Initially it was because her father was a muggle-born, then it was because She married Remus who was a werewolf! So yah, she had it in for Tonks!Www@QuestionHome@Com

I think J!.K!. Rowling viewed Bellatrix and Tonks as each other's counterpart!. They were the most prominent female characters for each side of the war!. That is probably why she paired them up during so many of the fight scenes!. Www@QuestionHome@Com

BAHAHAHA!.

Yes, Bellatrix was a mean b*tch!.

But I loved Tonks!. She was the coolest person ever!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

I KNOW!!

It was like Bellatrix only wanted to ruin Tonk's life, and didnt care about anything elseWww@QuestionHome@Com

I know, it seems a bit harsh, considering she was her aunt as well!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
