"I really don't understand why you won't tell us what that green frothy stuff is!" exclaimed James. "Yeah! We ARE best friends! What happened to 'no secrets'?" asked Peter. "It is REALLY none of your business," said Remus, annoyed. "It wasn't YOUR business that I like Evans!" said James reassuringly. "You didn't tell me that! You made it way too obvious, James. The way you look at her, the way you act like a gentleman around her, well…EVERYTHING! It is too obvious," said Remus. "Well, er…it doesn't matter! You shouldn't have to hide anything from us," said James. "Bloody hell. Good friends shouldn't make each other feel uncomfortable!" yelled Remus. He stormed off to the Great Hall for lunch.
As he finished the last bits of his buttered toast, Remus began to twitch. He looked out the bewitched ceiling windows. "Finite Incantatem" said Remus. "Hey! What you think you're doing, Remus?" said 7th year Ravenclaw head boy Alastor Moody. "Sorry. I just needed to check something," said Remus. "Fine. Just don't make the younger folk think it is okay to do," said Moody. He gazed out the ceiling. The sky was orange with clouds of darker shade patching areas of the brilliant sky. The sun was slowly setting. It was beautiful, but frightening. It was frightening to know that when the full moon comes out, he would turn into a creature. He wouldn't know himself anymore. At the fall of night, he would not be the studious 13 year old at Hogwarts. He would be his secret that was too hairy.
It was almost that time. Remus was starting to feel very nervous. He sat in the Gryffindor common room listening to his friends' jokes, trying to look happy. As Sirius began to tell a joke consisting of a house elf and firewhiskey, Remus began to gag. James, Sirius, and Peter looked at him concerned. "Are you okay?" asked Sirius. "I, uh, *gag*," said Remus. He looked out the window. The full moon was shining bright. He couldn't think anymore. Remus took off out of the portrait hole. He ran as fast as he could so no one would see him. Remus was changing with every step. His fingernails began turning sharp and yellow. His teeth were becoming sharper and pointier. Many prefects began to yell at him for being out of bed. The Slytherin prefect was hot on his tail. He reached the middle of a field surrounding Hogwarts. The Slytherin prefect was behind him. Remus began to grow more and more hair on his arms and legs. "What is your house?" asked the prefect. His eyes changed color. "Can you hear me?" asked the prefect. He became skinnier and more dog-like in figure. "What is your name?" asked the prefect. Remus Lupin was a werewolf. Thankfully, the prefect couldn't see because of the darkness. "Ca-"ROOOOOOAAAAAAAAR!" roared Remus. The prefect gasped on shock and ran away. He had the rest of the night to get rid of the werewolf in him that night. He let a howl and ran wherever he could.
