Chapter one : Encounters
A 12 year old boy pulled a heavy trunk behind him. As he looked up his light brown hair fell in his blue eyes which had a unique glint of amber in the top right corner. People rushed by in excitement and pushed him out of the way. He stumbled a bit but managed to regain his balance after a few seconds. In front of him was a tall ruby red train. He smiled. The Hogwarts Express loomed overhead belching out smoke.
"Be careful Remus." A brown haired man in his mid-thirties said, putting a hand on his son's shoulder. "Study hard and remember to send an owl to your Mum and I as often as you can."
"Don't worry Dad." Remus exclaimed, "I'll be fine, no need for you and Mum to worry about me."
"See you at Christmas, then I guess" Remus' father hugged his son tightly then watched as his son hauled his luggage into the Hogwarts express.
Careful not to put any strain on his left arm, which he had injured during the summer, he walked to the compartment at the back of the train and sat down. He rested his head against the cool glass when suddenly a voice ripped though the train.
"REMUS!"
The compartment door was thrown to the side and in stepped two black haired boys.
"Sirius! Do you have to shout everything? It looks like he was asleep!" Said the boy James, as he sat down next to his friend Remus.
Sirius' eyes flitted about. It was unusual for James to be telling anyone off. It was just plain weird. "It's not like I knew he was sleeping," he muttered.
"Well be more careful next time. What if you woke him up? You know how grumpy he gets. Remember the second last day of school?"
"Oh Yeah," That was not fun. He had stayed away from Remus the whole day. But it had provided good entertainment for James and Peter. Apparently he was just chasing him to make sure he wouldn't do it again.
It definitely worked.
"Exactly," said James.
"So exciting to be starting our 2nd year, eh!" Sirius said, quickly avoiding the subject. "Another year packed full of mischief!" A grin was on his lips now and he rubbed his hands together, in a very mischievious manner.
"Yeah, this year could do with a bit of excitment!" James said, Sirius sitting down beside him. "Got any new ideas?"
"Still thinking, dear james, still thinking." Sirius said closing his eyes. This made Remus roll his eyes.
"Like you ever think Sirius."
"Hey!"
For a while they sat in silence. The station outside began to move. Families could be seen waving goodbye to their children. Some wouldn't see each other until next year. Some would see each other again at Christmas.
James was staring blankly at the wall. Sirius on the other hand was about to crack. He was jumping up and looking around.
"What's up with you?" asked James, watching Sirius' erratic behavior
"Emmm, where's Peter?"
"OH MY GOD! We forgot about Peter!" exclaimed James who was now out of his seat. He peered out into the corridor and immediately drew his wand.
Outside Peter was facing Bellatrix and Narcissa Black. Both had their wands trained on him.
"Sirius, we have a problem." James said to him before stepping out into the corridor.
"Aww poor Petey has no one to protect him," teased Bellatrix in her famous baby voice.
"You're not scared are you?" asked Narcissa in a mock sympathy voice. Peter cowered and whimpered as he shuffled backwards from the two sisters. "You're gonna pay for what you and your friends did to us last year!"
"Leave him alone!" Cried Sirius, as he prepared to attack the two oncoming assailants.
"Traitor" Narcissa spat. "How dare you speak to us like that," Peter was now forgotten. Their wands were now pointed at the James and Sirius who stood side by side.
"You're gonna regret it if you hurt him. Just let him go," Yelled James.
The Black sisters looked at each other. "No I don't think we will. Three for the price of one."
"EXPELIARMUS!"
The Girls flew back and landed roughly on the floor. Wands lay at their feet. "You'll regret that half blood!" they screamed as they scampered away.
Remus still had his wand pointing to the spot where the slytherins had once been.
"Wow!" Was all James in Sirius could say, and Peter looked ready to worship him. In silent agreement, they turned and went back into the compartment.
Back inside the compartment, the boys were telling each other of their activities in the summer holiday, they had a lot to catch up on.
After James' story, the trolley lady appeared at the compartment door.
"Anything of the trolley, dears?" she asked sweetly, as she opened the compartment door.
"Don't mind if I do!" Sirius said excitedly as he scrounged in his pockets for his money. He bought as much as he could carry and dumped the sweets on the compartment seat. James and Peter started helping themselves, while Remus continued to stare out the window.
"Want anything Remus?" Asked Sirus, tearing open a Bertie Botts Every Flavoured Beans packet.
"No thanks, I'm fine."
"What's up with you?" Sirius said popping some beans into his mouth, "You haven't said anything since we got on the train!"
"I said I was fine." Replied Remus sourly.
"What happened to your arm?" asked a curious Peter, looking at the long deep scratch on his left arm which had nearly finished healing itself.
"I caught myself on the corner of my drawer." He replied tugging down the end of his top.
"Why won't you tell us what's wrong Remus? We're your friends or have you forgotten that?" Said an angry Sirius.
"I'm going for a walk." Remus slid open the compartment door and stormed out of the room.
He walked for ages down the corridor, passing compartments with laughing students of all different ages. He reached the end of the train and was about to turn around when a fist connected with his jaw and he went reeling backwards into one of the compartment doors. Remus slid down to the ground clutching his burst lip and jaw. A shadow loomed over him and smiled.
"You deserved that you half-blood!" sneered the one and only Lucius Malfoy.
