Chapter Deux

Sirius stared dumbly at the apparition a moment before bursting into laughter. The boy ignored him and continued speaking.

"The Grim is a magical creature, a cousin to the werewolf. They are now an omen but it was not always so. It became one by losing its mate. Your families are descendent from the Grim. Every generation has a Grim in form and in luck because a curse was placed on the Grim line. You are a Grim Sirius Orion Black. And now so is your entire family."

The laughter died quickly as Sirius stared in shock at the boy. "But they all can't have the curse. How did you even know about the curse? Werewolf! What did you do to me?" He wanted to slap the boy, castle… whatever it was.

"The curse in your family has been removed this day. And I am magic I know all that happens in my walls. I have also seen into the minds of all that have walked them. I have done nothing to you. It was done to you through your genes. You, like a were, transform; but the Grim was a leader therefore kept their minds. It is not all that different from shifting into your animagus form. But now you have your true form."

Sirius was still panicking. "But if I attack anyone or…"

"You need to listen. It is no longer a curse. And it is not a disease. You cannot spread the gene of your family to others. If you were to have children then they too would have the family gene. As it has always been."

Sirius thought for a moment. He has always known about the curse because… hell he had it. But now… it wasn't a curse. He was a Grim. "What were they before they were cursed?"

"The Grim was a symbol of death from the beginning. But they also are a symbol of warning, protection and life. The living Grim were leaders. They protected. In death their spirits were the ones that guarded the dead and in effect the living by warning them of things to come. There is always a bad to a good just as there is always a good to a bad."

Sirius was confused as to how this affected him. "You are a were. But with the ability to control yourself."

"So I have a mate?"

"Yes. You will likely find them here in the next weeks to come."

"If my mate is a werewolf?" he mentally crossed his fingers. Before thinking more along those lines. Remus was already a magical creature how would this affect him?

"If your mate is a werewolf then genes passed down would be that of the Grim as they are the dominant were gene."

He nodded. "How would this affect someone who is already a werewolf?"

"They will not have two separate beings in them. The wolf will be absorbed by them. They will be in complete control which will make the transformation easier. But some characteristics will change like you will also change. They will be lycan."

This pleased Sirius. In his mind he imagined dancing to beat it though…. Maybe a different muggle song he thought.

"I should let you return. The changes in everyone will happen gradually over the night and you will all need your rest." Sirius opened his mouth to ask another question but when he blinked he was in the front hall. The headmaster smiled at him before motioning to his office.

"Now Sirius how was your trip to the dungeons?" A slight clicking sound accompanied them down the hall.

Sirius looked around the hall in confusion. "…it was… I bet you know exactly what happened! What is that sound?!"

Dumbledore smiled and waved his hand. "Nothing to worry about. I do indeed know what happened but I wish to hear it from you." he looked at him over his glasses as they reached the gargoyle. "You did cause what is going to happen to everyone within the Hogwarts boundaries after all. You do realize that will include Hogsmeade do you not? And if this will take full effect tomorrow night the students as well." He walked up the stairs as Sirius stared after him.

Oh bloody hell…. He ran his hand through his hair. He hadn't thought about any of that. He had only thought of Remus… well hell. He followed up the stairs behind the headmaster. "Albus if you can talk to the castle, why don't you convince him… it to undo this."

"Because I cannot. Not when the failsafe is in regard."

"But it was an accident!"

"Regardless." He shook his head as he took a seat. He fidgeted for a moment before settling for just being uncomfortable.

"Albus are you okay?" He sat across from him and reached for the yellow candy on the desk. Albus slapped his hand away and pulled the bowl towards him.

"You are not the only one to deal with your… inheritance." Sirius stared at him blankly.

"But that would mean…"

"Yes the Dumbledore family does indeed have creature blood it has been suppressed until now though." He pulled off his hat and Sirius stared.

It was hard not to.

I mean….

They were rams horns.

On Albus.

Albus had ram horns.

Under his hat…

Sirius slapped his hands to his mouth trying to stifle the abrupt laughter that spilled from it. Who would have thought? The picture of Aberforth sat on the desk he was sitting with his goat. It made the situation that much more hilarious in his opinion. Albus eyes followed his and he sighed.

"Yes I can see how this would make the situation comical, but let me tell it is not as much as you seem to make it."

"Albus you have horns. Your brother has a fascination with goats, how is this not funny."

Albus chuckled dryly. "Yes well, back to business. I must warn you that it would be prudent to stay in you r rooms after tomorrow night."

"Why?"

"Sirius maybe you will understand this. Harry is unaware of any creature blood and he will be upset, Remus may be happy with the change, but Severus who from the Prince side will come into his, these and many more people will not be very happy with you."

Sitting back and running his hand through his hair. He hadn't thought about that yet.

"How would they know it was me?"

Albus looked at him over his half moon glasses. Sirius sighed.

"Okay okay. I get it. Ill hide out." He stood to head out but turned around. "But Albus can I asked what creature you family has in it?"

"I am sure you will find eventually. Have a good night Sirius."

A/N Okay just a filler chap. it would have been more but I kind of forget who was what except for Dumbledore. So until next time I hope you like this. TTFN
