"Remus! Remus sweety it's time to get up! You don't want to be late for the train!"

"Mughraffa..."

"What did you say?"

"Yeah I'm up! I'm getting up!"

"Alright sweety. Are you feeling better?"

"Yeah mom I'm fine! I'll be downstairs in a second!"

"Alrighty!"

Remus layed on his bed staring up at the ceiling of his very small bedroom. Maybe if he pretended that he wasn't in so much pain that he wanted to rip his head off, or that he only got three hours of sleep last night, he might just disappear into his mattress. The full moon last night was really bad. Right before school the wolf was really anxious and not happy, therefore it got taken out on Remus.

Lucky for him his dad must have taken him back to his room before his mom could see him. Remus had gauze and bandages all over his abdomen, left shoulder, and right thigh. If his mom had seen the damage she probably wouldn't let him go to school until he was fully healed. Not only would James and Sirius be royally pissed at him for not being there for the start of school, and they're annual start of term prank, but he would hate to miss the first week of classes. Especially since he misses classes enough every month as it is.

After laying on the bed for ten minutes Remus decided that the probability of him fading out of existence was not going to happen before the train leaves from King's Cross. He got up from his bed, slowly and painfully. He grabbed a black pullover sweater and a pair of jeans, the tricky part was trying to maneuver his bandages through his clothes. While pulling the sweater down he accidentally pulled the gauze on his stomach, and his wounds reopened. Shit. His mom cannot find out his wounds or he'll be stuck here for sure.

Remus re-bandaged his stomach and brought his prepacked trunk downstairs, but even that drained him."Remus! You're going to be late! Hurry up!"

Remus left his trunk by the fireplace and turned the corner to the kitchen. "I'm right here mum, we can go now if you'd like."

"You've got to eat something son. Keep your health up." said Mr. Lupin who was sitting on one of the 3 unmatched dining chairs that surrounded a small square, white painted, wood table. He was wearing his brown trousers and oxford shirt underneath his patched up robes (meaning he wouldn't be in the field today), ready to head off to the ministry where he would be under appreciated and underpaid.

Mrs. Lupin looked at Remus from where she had been packing his breakfast into a brown paper bag. She had her hair up in a ponytail where it usually sat and was wearing navy blue pants and a white blouse with navy blue polka dots. Her eyes were tired, and he knew she didn't get much sleep last night, she never does on the full moon. "Hopefully you'll feel better after you've eaten. You don't look all too well sweetheart, maybe you shouldn't go back to school quite so soon..."

"No!" Both of his parents jerked up to look at him in surprise. "Sorry. I'm fine, I just need to eat something. Really, I'm the height of healthiness. We better get going dad, don't want to miss the train."

Mr. Lupin gave Remus a look at his healthy comment but said nothing. Remus took the packed breakfast off of the small kitchen counter and urged his father into the living room.

"Alright before we go you're all packed?" Remus nodded. "Okay well if you've forgotten anything just write us and we'll send it. Ok then we best be off. The floo powder is on the mantle dear."

Remus handed the jar of floo powder to his father who took a handful and stepped into the fireplace yelling "Platform 9 3/4!" before disappearing into the green flames. Remus kissed his mother on the cheek and was held held by his compassionate mother. "Alright mum, I need to go now. Love you, I promise I'll write." He took some floo powder, and his trunk and stepped into the fireplace, he smiled at his mother who smiled back but he could see a tear in the corner of her eye.

Remus was swept away by green flames when he threw down his flew powder and came out of one of the few fireplaces at the platform. He came out dizzy and uneasy, but his dad was standingahead with his back to him. So Remus gathered himself and took a breathe before walking up to his father.

"Did you pack lots of healing potion?" Remus nodded. "Those were really bad last night Remus. And the only reason your mother isn't finding out about the full extent of your injuries is because she would be very upset and you would probably miss two weeks of school before your mother let you go. And although I strongly believe education is important, you need to remember to give your body time to catch up with you Remus. Take it easy, and just talk to Professor McGonagall if you're struggling, she'll understand I'm sure. "

"Thanks dad. I will if I need to, I promise."

"Now get going, you'll miss your train."

Suddenly there were shouts of "Remus!", Remus turned around in time to see James and Sirius trampling first years and pushing their way through the crowd, Peter shortly behind, before running to give Remus a giant group hug. The boys were oblivious to how hard they were squeezing their missed friend until they heard Remus make a dog-like whimper of pain, to which they all released him immediately.

"I am so sorry Remus I forgot it was yesterday!" said Sirius with a pained expression on his face, the others with similar expressions.

"It's not a big deal" Remus shrugged when his father's hand came down gently on his shoulder.

"Make sure you write Remus, you're mother and I will miss you."

"I promise I will dad." said Remus looking up at his father with a tired smile.

"Now hurry up, you'll miss your train." he said with a smile. Remus turned to his friends and they all started making their way to the train. They were intercepted however when Frank Longbottom came bounding in front of them.

"You won't believe who is on the train!" he said practically bouncing up and down.

"Frank although any information that has got you this excited has to be semi-interesting, we would rather just get on the train." Sirius explained. Sirius was walking around Frank when he practically burst with "Keelin Kent!"

James stopped dead in his tracks, eyes bulging as he stared at Frank. "What?" he asked in hardly more than a whisper.

"Keelin Kent is in a compartment on the Hogwarts Express Potter."

"Keelin Kent, the 15 year-old quidditch star from Canada. Keelin Kent, the youngest international quidditch player ever. Keelin Kent, the best player on the Moosejaw Meteorites. Keelin Kent-"

"Frank, are you telling us that Keelin Kent is within a 100 meter radius of us?" asked Sirius grabbing Frank by the shoulders their faces inches apart.

"That's exactly what I'm telling you mate. She is in a compartment alone, on the Hogwarts Express." Sirius let go of him and turned around.

"Get your asses moving we're going to see Keelin Kent!" Sirius grabbed Remus' trunk and started hauling it to the train, ignoring Remus' protests like "Give me my trunk you git!" and "I'm SERIOUS! Aw come on! You never miss an opportunity to use that joke... Hand me my trunk!".

By the time they got there a few minutes later, Peter was out of breathe and Remus was horribly pale. Sirius and James were looking at him concerned, and Sirius opened his mouth but Remus gave him a look like "I swear if you ask me if I'm okay I will personally ensure that they are your last words". It was quite obvious which compartment she was in by the crowd of awestruck students surrounding, to petrified to make contact.

James and Sirius shoved their way through students, Peter and Remus following in their wake. But when James looked through the compartment window his mouth hung open and he was as dumbfounded as the others. Sirius however opened the compartment door.

Remus had seen pictures of Keelin Kent flying on her broomstick on posters that James and Sirius had, or in the newspaper praising her success, or even her advertising a product. But seeing her in person was a whole other experience. When Sirius opened the compartment door she turned her head at the sound and Remus saw her head on. A quarter of her hair was shaved on the right side of her head, the rest of her natural red hair fell in ringlets halfway down her torso. The light coming in from the window illuminated her piercings. She had four on her ear on the shaved part of her head (two up-top, and two on her lobe), and three on her other ear (one up-top and two on her lobe) that had her hair tucked behind it. She also had her nosed pierced on the left side of her face, and a loop through the right side of her bottom lip. She had piercing pale blue eyes, and her facial features were angular and pointed and could be compared to that of a fox.

Sirius too seemed to be transfixed until Remus lightly nudged him in the back, realizing that they had been standing in the doorway too long to be considered socially acceptable. Sirius seemed to have registered this and cleared his throat hoping to redeem himself.

"Um, do you mind if we sit with you?" his voice quivering only slightly.

She sat there for a moment, as if she was as shocked as they were that they asked such a question. Until she broke out into a grin.

That was the first chapter! I hope you enjoyed it!
