Lupin meets another……
This is the conversation that lupin has when he meets the werewolf in order of the phoenix.
Chapter one
Lupin went over to the bed of the man who had been bitten by the werewolf he thought that he looked quite upset.
"Hello" he said
"Get away from me" said the man quite calmly
"Why?"
"'Cos I'm a werewolf, I might suddenly go mad and bite you"
"I don't think you would" Said Lupin
"Why not"
"You used to buy my tricks that me and my friends sold at school, surely you remember us James potter, Peter Pettigrew, Sirius black and remus lupin?"
the man laughed "oh yes I remember you, the school jokers, you became a prefect didn't you."
"yes"
"and now…your friends are….well one of them is a mad murderer and the other two are…"
"dead," supplied lupin
"yes, and that is Harry potter over there isn't it
"yep, so what's your name?"
"Tom wombat"
"you were the head boy the year I was prefect."
"Yes Dumbledore wanted you to control the rest of your friends, hmm as I remember you still let james hang snape upside down in the air."
"yes I admit it I was too scared to stick up for snape my friends had made my life more fun that it had been in my living memory."
"I still think that you were a coward,"
"so do I"
"well what do you think I should do if they ever let me out of this hospital?"
"I'm not sure what job did you have before you were bitten?"
"I was part of the comity on experimental charms."
"well as you probably know, Dolores umbridge before she went to work at Hogwarts set up a load of stupid rules that mean that it is almost impossible to get a job as a werewolf"
"yeah I know I just got fired," he pointed to a piece of parchment,
"I know how you feel…."
"what you just got fired too how can you understand what I feel you can still find another job without the umbridge laws affecting you"
"do you really think so? What makes you think I am so unlike you?"
"you are a normal person who lives a normal life whereas I will turn in to a highly dangerous monster at the full moon,"
"there is potion that has been invented that makes you harmless when you transform so you can just curl up in a broom cupboard until you become a human again."
"are you a campaigner for were wolf rights of something."
"no,"
"then how do you know that the potion is effective?"
"I have to take it."
"WHAT……you mean that you are a werewolf too."
"yep and personally I envy you."
"why?"
"cos you got to live your life before you became a werewolf, I mean how old are you 37?"
"38"
"well how long do you think I have been a werewolf ?"
"umm well it cant be more than 17 years can it?"
"really"
"what you went to Hogwarts as a werewolf."
"yep Dumbledore was probably the only Hogwarts headmaster who would have let me,"
"now I understand why fudge thinks Dumbledore is crazy"
"well we did have to take certain precautions,"
"like what?"
"do you remember the shrieking shack?"
"yep, it was supposed to be haunted by really violent spirits…"
"Dumbledore set that rumour about so that no one would go there the screams and howls the villagers heard were me."
"but how did you get in?"
"you remember the whomping willow?"
"yep"
"that was planted over the entrance to the tunnel"
"so how old were you when you were bitten,"
"about four."
"oh so you….."
"I have only had two proper jobs in my entire live……. I worked at Hogwarts as defense against the dark arts teacher but apparently the job is jinxed well I only lasted one year you remember snape well he works there he told all the slytherins I was a werewolf and I worked for a short time in the ministry of magic just after you know who fell from power, when they were short on people but when every thing settled down I was kicked out and now I cant get a job because of the umbridge laws.."
"I would love to bite her just to ,make her see how cruel she is to all half breeds"
"so would I, I've got a werewolf weekly here would you like to have it I've finished it, I've got to go my party is leaving mrs weasly appears to have blown her self out.
