The Wolf Senses

Episode One: Strange Noises

Author's Note: A new idea, see what you think...

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Remus's ears twitched as he sat in his office. He was back, teaching at Hogwarts for Harry, Ron and Hermione's 7th and final year. His ears often twitched when he picked up sounds from the castle. It was such a big place you never knew what you were going to hear. His ears usually subsided after he ignored them for a few minutes, but today something was different.
His ears twitched so much it gave him a headache.

*Alright, alright! Bloody hell!*

He listened to the sounds carefully, dodging around the other conversations going on:

"Sorry Ron, I'm busy this weekend..." - Lavender

"Hogsmeade? Can we get any privacy there, Draco?" - Cho

He passed all that to find what he needed to hear. He recognised the voices speaking. It was Hermione and Harry. And there was someone else, someone shuffling around who he couldn't name. He didn't recognise the third voice. But whoever it was, something was telling him it wasn't good...
Remus turned to face the direction of the sound and shut his eyes to listen hard to what was going on:

"No Harry... It's too risky..."
"Too risky? This coming from you, Herm?!"

Remus knew full well what Harry meant. Hermione and Remus were together, no matter what he said or did. And that had always annoyed Harry, not being in control for a change...

"I never said risky, I said too risky!"
"I'm doing it anyway, I don't care what you say!"
"An excellent outlook on life, sir..."
"And you can keep quiet too!"
"Apologies, young miss, I'll shut my mouth then..."
"No! Don't obey her, she doesn't deserve it! Get lost if you're not going to help!"
"Pardon sir but might'n she let on the secret if released?"
"You're right, Herm, stay here!"
"NO!"
"Sit!"
"Get bent."
"Maybe later, now SIT!"
"NO! Ow Harry! Don't! That hurts!"

Remus felt his blood boil. He clenched his fist and snapped the quill he'd been holding. The ink ran down his fist and stained his hand.

*Nobody hurts my Hermione. Not while there's breath left in my body!*

Remus jumped to his feet, hurdled over the desk and burst out of the door, following the sound...
