I have really enjoyed writing this and I have been as amazed as most of you at how it will end up. Hope you enjoy please read and review and as always remember I own nothing in the HP Universe JKR is just nice enough to allow me to visit and play here. ~~ Mae

Siriusly Hooked Up

By

1 - Looking Around

Sirius Orion Black sighed as he looked around the room. He was back, back in black, Black Manor that is. The house and that room he swore as a teenager that he would never return to. Stuck in his childhood home and not even able to take a walk around the block, "I'm more of a prisoner here then I was in Azkaban" He thought to himself. Sirius sighed again. "Boy I'm Siriusly bored." Then he started laughing a cold almost insane laugh. "I've actually always hated that joke" he said to the room in general. "I must be loosing it if I'm making that joke on myself.

Sirius looked around his childhood room. It was the same four poster bed the same wardrobe, the same curtains the same mirror still with a few muggle stickers stuck to it and the same bedspread. "I think it's time to grow up" Sirius thought to himself. "Kreacher!" he hollered. A very ancient and wrinkled house elf appeared before him. After a pause Kreacher said"…Master has called Kreacher? What can Kreacher do for you?"

"First, why do you always pause before addressing me?" Sirius inquired.

"Because Master told Kreacher never to use words such as blood traitor, mutt, runaway, horrible son who made Mistress cry, Master Black's favorite, to your face so I say it to myself before addressing you. You haven't forbidden me to do that yet."

Sirius sighed again, "Oh heaven forbid I should take away your fun. Where is the other furniture stored now?"

"You mean the belongings of Mistress and Master that that loud mouth, controlling, not Master Harry's mother, redheaded shrew of a witch has not thrown out?" inquired Kreacher.

Sirius smiled. "Yes Kreacher I mean the stuff Molly hasn't thrown out yet. No wait what did you say Kreacher? "

"Redheaded shrew?"
"No before that."

"Loud mouthed?"

"No after that."

"Controlling?"

" I could have swore you said 'not Master Harry's mother.'"

"Oh no, mutt, I mean Master. Kreacher would never speak ill of an invited guest in your house".

"That's OK Kreacher" mumbling to himself Sirius adds "she's not exactly invited. So where is all the other furniture? Since I'm stuck here I think it's time to grow up my room."

"The large pieces like beds and wardrobes are in the basement master while smaller pieces like tables chair and settees are in the attic. What is Master looking for. The most ancient Kreacher will of course get you any of those heavy items that you wish."

"That's OK Kreacher I think I will go explore the basement I haven't been down there since Reg and I were small boys. Thank you; I will call you if I need anything else."

Kreacher bowed and popped softly out of the room.

Sirius made his way to the basement spending the next few hours poking through boxes and trying out the look of different headboards and wardrobes for his room. Moving a rather large wardrobe, Sirius spied something odd on the wall. It was a gray box at approximately vision height with heavy duty silver wiring spidering off of it.

"Kreacher" he called and in just a moment Kreacher was before him. "What is this?" he asked indicating the box on the wall.

"Why that is Mistress' fuse box, Mater Sirius"

"Fuse box?"
"Why yes, for Mistresses' e-leg-tricity."

"Mom did know that this is a muggle item; right?"
"Oh yes, sir, it was actually her greatest secret. She discovered this wonderful thing that the muggles have called central heat and central air. As she got older it made Mistress so much more comfortable. But we had to turn it off when guests came for she didn't want anyone to know she had a muggle devise in her house."

Sirius just stared open mouthed at the ancient house elf. "You mean we have had central air and central heat but I have been either roasting or freezing depending on the season since I got stuck here?"

"Yes"

Sirius took a deep calming breath, "Why didn't you tell me about this?"
"Master never asked." Said Kreacher

"Turn it on for the correct season, then, Kreacher. Anything else I should know about Mother's e-leg-tricity? "
She has places to pug things in; in all of the bedrooms, Master. And May Kreacher suggests that since you are the Lord Black now you should use the master bedroom. I have removed all of Mistress' and Master's belongings from that room before the redheaded blood traitors moved in there and that way if she comes back she can not Mistress' room again. Kreacher believes that there are four places to plug things into the e-leg-tricity in Master Sirius' new room".

"I had never thought of using that room before Kreacher. But I believe that I will. Could you move my belongings down to my new room and set my old room up as a room for Master Harry. I'll trade out the furniture later."
"Yes Master, right away Master." Kreacher bowed and popped out of the basement.

Sirius shook his head as he looked at his mother's greatest secret hanging on the basement wall. "Why Mother you sneaky witch you." He said right before he turned to head back up the stairs.

Author's note: I do not own anything from the Harry Potter universe, but I do like to play in it. I also do not own any of the items referenced here for AC/DC.
