Howl
By: TheFifthCharmedOne
Disclaimer: I don't own Harry Potter.
Summary: The wolf's howl can mean two things - unity or destruction. Remus howled a total of two times in his life. First, when his pack of friends came together. Second, when they were torn apart. - Response to the Vivid Characters/Scenes in 100 Words or Less on HPFC [second response]

"Come on Remus! Let's go!" James cajoled his friend, and Remus followed. Sirius slapped him on the back, and Peter smiled hesitantly at him. They stepped off the Hogwarts Express and followed Hagrid to the boats that would take them home.
"Gryffindor!"
"Gryffindor!"
"Gryffindor!"
"Gryffindor!"
That night, a howl was heard from the shack behind Hogsmeade, and that was how the Shrieking Shack got its name.
Eight years later, another howl tore from Remus Lupin's throat, but this one was not from the wolf.
James and Peter dead - Sirius responsible for both.
His pack was gone - he was alone.
Forever.

A/N: Again, not my best. I need to work on these more. They're fun and challenging. Anyway, thanks to AnneNevillieReviews for coming up with this idea. I'm officially addicted to writing drabbles. Author Alert people beware! :D
