Chapter two

As they stepped into the forest they both got goose bumps but didn't know why or even how but it was because it was their first feel of real magic.

They hunted for hours and only came by some dear and elk, with nothing out of the ordinary, but the further they penetrated the forest the odder the sounds they heard. Sometimes they heard centaur hooves but shook it off saying it was just probably some wild horses and didn't pursue them because Bella didn't want to kill a horse, they even once heard a troll's club hitting a tree and couldn't come up with an explanation and the smell was horrid so they just continued to move looking for something of interest to do until the full moon came in two days. They did see some giant spiders the size of medium sized cats but thought nothing of other than perhaps a mutated strand of arachnid.

After awhile they decided to relax and just observe their surroundings and see if they could hear or see or even smell something they've never encountered before so they stopped in a cave that looked like a good place for people to hide if they needed shelter and it apparently had been because of the scent a human and a dog that somehow merged into one clung to the walls when they reached it. After relaxing in the cave for awhile the wind shifted and with it they heard people talking in what seemed like a small town. From a distance it looked like an ordinary town but as they soon discovered it was a castle.

Edward and Bella agreed to check it out because it was after all a vacation as well as an expedition and it would be fun to see the customs there. So they ran and in a minute they reached the castle and saw what looked liked a bunch of kids that were doing unexplainable things like making objects fly or turning a toad into a pillow (with much dismay to round faced kid who Edward discovered name was Neville Longbottom). They decided to be cautious so they stayed hidden except to what looked like big black dog that was looking at them curiously.

Bella decided the dog was really cute so she went to go pet it and to her surprise it didn't run away like most animals did now that she was changed but it stayed still eyeing her grimly. When she reached the dog she stopped and sniffed and then grabbed it by it's scruff in an unbreakable hold and turned to Edward and said "Hey Edward umm am I becoming crazy or does this dog smell like a human and I don't mean like a human pet it but like it was a human…kind of like the scent in the cave we were in earlier?"

Edward walked toward her curiously while looking at the wide eyed dog. When he reached them he sniffed and read its mind and was startled because what he thought was a kid thinking it turned out to be the dog and so Edward asked "Ok Sirius please shift so we can see your human form."

The dog tried to get out of Bella's hold but couldn't so he whined. Edward replied "What do you mean give you to deament-. " Edward stopped talking while he listened to Sirius's thoughts while Bella was becoming antsy. Finally Edward spoke again "Wow if that's the case but we probably wouldn't have anyway because we weren't going out any way until we-." He was cut off again by Sirius's thoughts and as he listened his eyes widened with shock and at this Bella cracked and almost shouted out "What the hell is going on!" Edward was shocked for a second because he hardly ever heard his wife use any language like that but composed himself quickly.

"Put the dog down and all will be explained love." Edward said softly. The second Bella released the dog it transformed into a man who looked to skinny with a haunted glint in his eyes and scraggly black hair with yellow teeth. For a second it looked like he would bolt but Edward just shook his head and said "Don't even try because we are pretty fast and we will catch you and you won't like it when we do. So please sit down and we can talk." Sirius sat down as did Bella and Edward to appear more human and to reassure this strange man.
