Moony's Tale

Summary- Why did Remus return to Hogwarts? Why didn't he defend Sirius before he went to Azkaban. Harry is in third year, the feared Sirius Black is on the, run and there is only one man who is a living connection between these two. All through Remus's view-point. Sorry to slash haters, but there will be some.

A/N- 'Ello to all! This is my first fanfict. Remus is one of my favorite characters in the series, and Prisoner of Azkaban is my favorite book in the series. Mix-Match, got my first fanfict. Feel free to criticize, it's good for me. Also, so this chapter is short. Well, it is the prologue, so it is sort of allowed to be short.

Disclaimer- Though when I get older I hope to become a rich and famous writer, like J.K. Rowling. I currently am only writing for my school newspaper and fan-fictions. I own nothing except for Remus's thoughts and anything else that isn't in book three and beyond. T&P Forever

Prologue- The News May Write It, But Only I Feel It

The Daily Prophet clearly declared it- Sirius Black had escaped from Azakaban prison. To many people, he was just an insane murderer, who was the first wizard to ever escape from Azkaban, that alone was enough to terrify anybody. For Remus Lupin, a million more fears flashed before his eyes. He was once the friend of this lunatic, he had trusted him. Now the wizarding world was in desperate fear. Remus knew the truth. Why Sirius had killed thirteen Muggles and one wizard, their old friend Peter Pettigrew. Peter knew the truth, the betrayal, the way Sirius Black truly ran back to his family, and ran away from those who were always there for him. He had betrayed James and Lily.

Suddenly, his thoughts came to an abupt halt. Lily and James, James and Lily. Sirius had told Voldemort where James and Lily were living. James and Lily had a baby boy. All three of them ran into shelter. Remus didn't know why, but the night of Hallows Eve 1980, Sirius's prescious master Voldemort killed James and Lily and was defeated by Harry James Potter, barely one year old.

Harry Potter. Voldemort. Sirius Black. Remus gulped. Sirius Black was on the run from Azkaban, to kidnap Harry Potter and avenge Voldemort. Sirius was going to break into Hogwarts. Sirius was one of the Mauraders, he knew that school better then anybody. He knew how to sneak in……and kill his best friend's son

Sirius did never hold up to his end of the godfather gig, but Remus Lupin was going to be damned if he didn't try to protect Harry. There was only one person who Remus could count on, the man who always had faith in him. Albus Dumbledore. Remus knew that protecting Harry was going to be an inside job.
