Disclaimer: I do not own Harry Potter. (Oh gosh darn) It is owned by J.K Rowling. Lucky lucky...

I do sorta own the new characters in the story. Nia, our heroine, Remus' niece/goddaughter, and her parents Artemis and Bill.

Note: We really dont know anything about our werewolfs family ;). He could have had an older sister for all we know.

Currently Remus is in his seventh year.

The Wolf Animagus

Chapter 1: The Letter

Remus Lupin had never felt so anxious in his life. As the chattering Gryffindors passed marmalade and chucked knives across the table, he gazed up at the bewtiched celing, and the high windows, waiting for the storm of owls to arrive. He felt himself perspiring, and his insides shaking with nerves. His stomach clenched and he doubled over to ease the pain of his nervousness.

"Er...Remus?"

Remus threw his head up to see Sirius Black grinning above him, moving a prefects badge through his fingers. He handed it back to him and swung his leg over the bench to sit down. "You dropped that in your breakfast Moony. Still nervous eh?" Sirius' grin was replaced by concern, as he flet Remus' forehead for a temperature. "Blimey! Moony, your hot! Wanna go to Madam Pomfrey? Your paler than usual!" Remus shook his head, tearing his eyes away from the window. "Its just nerves. I usually get warm when I'm nervous" Remus croaked.

"You should settle down! Its just a baby after all!"

"I know..." whispered Remus, wringing his hands, then dragging them through his hair. "Where's James and Peter Sirius?"

"Ah them...James is still sleeping. Peter...I dunno where he went. He was being really twitchy lately. Have you noticed?"

Remus nodded, and stabbed his toast with a fork. The very sight of it made him queasy.

"Anyways Moony...after the mail comes, wanna wake James, then we will go to the field again? You can be chaser instead of keeper this ti-"

Sirius stopped and swung his head up, becoming very still. "Mail Moony..."

Remus looked up toward the windows again. and, two seconds later, owls swooped into the Great Hall, spoiling breakfast for several students who recieved large parcels. Remus frantically searched the crowd, for a familiar owl, when a gray owl swooped down, dropped a blue envelope, and soared away again.

Sirius took the dignity of opening the envelope, removing the letter, and reading it outloud, since Remus was shaking so badly, that unless he was frothing at the mouth, Sirius would think it was a seizure. Placing a hand on Remus shoulder, as a silent order to calm down, and clearing his throat Sirius read:

Hello Remus!

I have wonderful news! The delivery went well. I was transferred to St. Mungo's early thing morning. I now have a daughter named Nia. Nia Artemis Rhodes. 5.3 lbs, 5:17 AM. I am so happy Remus! I hope that you will accept being her godfather. I couldnt think of anyone better. Even more exciting, the healers at St. Mungo's did tests on her to see if she was born with any gifts, born a squib etc. They determined she was an Animagus! A wolf animagus! How ironic... We won't know her markings until she transforms. I didn't know you could determine if a baby is an animagus, let alone their animal. But their spells are getting so advanced these days. Come by tomorrow to see her. Nia will be thrilled to see you. I cant wait to see you too little brother

Your loving sister,

Artemis

PS. I made this owl go express so it could reach you by breakfast. I hope you didn't go sick with nerves like you always do.

Sirius put the letter down on the table with a laugh. "Congratulations Remus! A wolf animagus! Godfather, your an important guy today aren't you? Lets run upstairs, wake up James and tell him! Remus?"

Sirius looked down to see Remus with his head on the table, shaking.

"Remus? Remus!"

Remus picked his head up and looked at Sirius, tears forming at his eyes, laughing. "Yes, yes, Lets tell James!"
