Sirius: The Quest
1
Ever since the rise of Voldemort, I
knew what I had to do, gather up the strongest wizards to defend
against Voldemort. My first stop was Remus Lupin's; this wouldn't
be easy, as Lupin's home was in America. My story begins in
Hogwarts grounds.
I knew my way around the grounds, the amount of times I had been
out here in my dog form, but I had never felt as lonely as this.
I thought back to the days of Moony, Wormtail, Padfoot and
Prongs, and remembered the quickest way to Hogsmeade was the
forbidden forest. I slipped into the darkness of the forest and
shivered.
"Lumos" A light appeared at the end of my wand, I
grinned, even though no one was around. It would be just like old
times, but of course, without friends, again I shivered as I made
my way deeper into the depths of the forest, the occasional howl
of a wild beast stopping me in my tracks. It was then that I
heard the twig snap. Out of reflexes I jumped around to see who,
or what was there.
"Hello?" I called "Who's there" I began to
get a bit nervous as no reply came.
"You should know me by now" A familiar voice came back
after a while.
"Remus!"
"Sirius!" We both grinned at each other and both
chorused 'What are you doing here?' and then both cried out
'looking for you' we both then burst out laughing it certainly
felt better in the forest now, with a friend.
"C'mon" Remus instructed me "I've got a tent set
up over there" He vaguely pointed north "There's a
fire, too, we can use floo powder to get to my place in
America" After agreeing with Remus we made our way to his
camp. I walked up to the fire, as I needed to warm up. Meanwhile
Remus took the tent apart, and took a package out of his pocket.
"We better use the floo powder well, it costs loads"
Remus said
"Money that I don't have" I replied "I've not had
money for 16 years"
"Poor you" Remus said, looking sympathetically at me
"Anyway, you go first" He handed me some of the silvery
powder.
"Are you sure this is going to work?" I asked, "I
thought you needed fireplaces"
Remus beamed at me "Nope, this is the super floo powder, it
takes you anywhere" My jaw dropped "Who needs
apperation?"
"Exactly" Remus replied.
Feeling a lot more confident, I threw the powder into the fire,
it turned a blinding white. As I stepped into the fire, it felt
more cold than warm. "Remus' house!" I bellowed. The
landscape around me seemed to vanish, The ride to Remus' was like
nothing I'd ever been on, I was in blackness, but I could feel
myself, spinning around, and falling vertically, then I started
to slow. I felt as bad as I had felt on the day of James'
wedding. Totally hungover, but I hadn't been drinking the night
before, I just felt very sick. As I hit the grassy ground I bent
over and vomited violently. Remus landed in front of me and gave
a slight chuckle.
"I take it the ride didn't agree with your stomach?"
"God, Remus, that's worse than Gringotts" I replied,
shaking.
"C'mon, let's go inside and get you some water" Remus
said. I didn't refuse and followed him into his house.
I was actually quite amazed at how big the house was- I always
thought Remus would own a small place, but this didn't suite him,
considering Remus was the only one living there.
"I have called Arabella Figg, she is going to Apperate here
tomorrow" I nodded.
"After her I only have 3 left, You've done most of my work
for me Remus" I watched Remus chuckle, and smiled weakly
myself. "Hey Remus, do you have a owl?" Remus nodded.
"Yes, I suppose you want to contact Harry" I grinned
"Very perceptive" Remus laughed lightly.
"Yeah, I suppose, I was never much for Prof. Trewalney's
lessons anyway" I smirked "Yeah remember the fun we had
when we made up all that stuff about seeing her death?"
Remus laughed.
"That was great! And she believed us!"
I smiled "Until we burst out laughing" Remus faked an
unhappy face.
"Yeah" His face turned back to a smile "anyway say
Hi to harry for me"
I flicked a thumbs up and said, "Will do" But then I
remembered something "Hey, Remus what d'ya think of the
birthday present I got Harry?" I took out the purple pouch
that had been in my pocket, and took out the sphere that was
inside.
"WOW! James' Apperation ball!" I laughed at his look of
awe. "I wish I still had mine, Apperation was never my
strong point" I grinned.
"You're in luck" I pulled out another pouch. Remus
looked dumbstruck
"It can't be!" He stared at the ball in gave him
"Thanks!" I laughed at his still awed face.
"Got it in the burnt house" I shivered, remembering
that very moment, Remus did too. "Anyway!" I said
brightly, overcoming the brief feeling of sadness "Where's
your owl then?"
