Chapter 2 (SCARS, A MARAUDERS FANFIC)

SIRIUS P.O.V

Sirius lay restlessly in his bed, the other boys in their dorm (James, Remus and Peter) were asleep. What would this parents say when they found out about his house? Grifindor and slytherin where polar-opposites, his parents already hated him, they would be furious.

Sirius closed his eyes, trying to shake the thoughts from his head when he heard a quiet, almost silent moan. Sirius opened his eyes looking around to see Remus tossing and turning in his sleep. Pulling himself out of his bed he shuffled over to Remus, glancing at the clock as he went past it, 1:30 AM, he had been lying awake for a long time.

"Remus, Remus" whispered Sirius, he started to shake him as he didn't get a response. "Remus!"

Suddenly Remus jerked up, panting and pale. Looking afraid. "It was just a nightmare" Sirius said softly. "Not real"

"Not real" Remus mumbled, some colour returning to his face.

"Not real" Sirius nodded.

Remus looked down embarrassed. "It's okay to have nightmares, you know, everyone has them, you can talk about them, if you want" Sirius said. Remus sighed. "I'm sorry if I woke you" He apologised.

"You didn't wake me, I was already awake" Sirius shook his head. Remus raised his head.

"Why where you awake?"

"Couldn't sleep"

They were silent for a while, until Remus spoke again.

"You're not meant to be here, are you? In Gryffindor" Remus said it as more of a statement then a question. Sirius tensed, Remus could just see it in the dark.

"No, I suppose not" Sirius said stiffly. "Try sleep, you don't want to be tired on your first day" He said in a slightly softer voice.

Remus could tell he'd said the wrong thing as Sirius walked back to his bed. Maybe Sirius had secrets to, like him.

Sirius lay back in his bed, he did not want to think about what his family would say when they learnt that he had got into Gryffindor. No. No Don't think of that. Thought Sirius firmly. His hand drifted to a scar, just above his heart. It ran in a jagged line, spelling out a word. Traitor. He shook his head violently, as if to break the memories and took his wand. He didn't know man spells, but he did know the spell to make sure no one would hear him when he had a nightmare.

Casting the charms around the bed, muttering the charms quietly, he lay in his bed, trying to drift into an uneasy sleep.

REMUS P.O.V

Monster, You shouldn't be here, you're a dark creature, dangerous. Thought Remus. Why Dumbledore even let him into Hogwarts was a mystery. Thoughts like these swirled around his mind as he drifted into a sleep, tainted with nightmares.

The small boy cowered in the corner as the wolf came towards him. "DADDY. MUMMY!" he screamed. The wolf bared his teeth, leaping towards the boy. Suddenly, his father came running in with his wand in his hand. "Remus!" He gasped. He shot spells at the wolf.

"Leave, Greyback" hissed Lylall Lupin. He shot some more curses. The wolf snarled and retreated. Lylall hurried over to his son, he was alive, but…

He was cursed.

"Remus! Remus!" his father said.

"Remus!" Remus jerked up, his father wasn't calling his name, it was Sirius, the boy he had met at the sorting.

"It was just a nightmare, not real"

"Not real" Remus repeated. Oh but it was, it was all to real.

PETER P.O.V

Peter settled down to sleep quickly, however the sorting hats words bounced around in his head. He was almost a slytherin, what did the hat mean about the enemy? Seal his fate?

However, he was a Gryffindor! His parents were going to be so proud! Thought Peter happily, finally, he had done something his parents could be proud of!

JAMES P.O.V

James knew he was going to be Gryffindor, he just knew it! He liked Sirius, Remus and Peter, oh, they could be such good friends! However Sirius and Remus seemed, suspicious, ah well, maybe they were just nervous.

Sirius was a black though, they are pretty obsessed with blood purity, and slytherin… Sirius wasn't like that, hopefully his parents wouldn't be to mad.

Remus… he was… different… he had scars on his arms and face, he didn't seem clumsy. Hopefully he's treated okay…
