I shortened this chapter as it was so long, so I think i'm splitting it into two or three chapters.

Enjoy.

Past Life

There was silence; the only sound was the soft sobs of Tonks as she looked into the stranger's face.

"You see who you want to see… You see the person you love the most, but
the one you can't have." said the stranger, bluntly.

"So…S-so, you're not Teddy? You just look like him?" wondered Remus, his
jaw dropping.

"Yes, I
just look and act like the person you desire the most." Teddy said bluntly
again. Tonks let out a whimper and threw herself at Lupin sobbing into his
shoulder. He spoke reassuring words to her as he carried on staring at the
Teddy clone. After Tonks had pulled herself together, she whispered,

"What do we do now?"
"You will now be led through different paths…paths of your lives. You
will meet some who died along the way. When it comes to your time in your lives
when you met each other, you will journey it together, seeing people you both
knew." Teddy said bluntly.

"Why do we have to do this?" gasped Tonks.
"It will give you a chance to say goodbye. A chance to take in the
reality of everything and it will cleanse your body free of evil and sin." he
finished with a forced smile. Tonks and Remus nodded.

"Oh and if you start getting Headaches, it means someone from earth is thinking about you, your mind
will be filled with memories of them for a few seconds…and if someone is
thinking about you so much then you'll get a vision and see them…you won't be
able to connect with them but you will see what they are doing. Tonks, follow
me, you will start your journey" spoke Teddy. Tonks turned to Remus, tears
filling her eyes again.

"I'll see you again soon Tonks. Good luck and remember I love you." Remus planted a kiss
on her mouth and gave her a quick hug before letting her follow the Teddy clone
down an alley way. Tonks looked back before disappearing from sight. The Teddy
person walked up to Lupin,

"Follow me." Lupin followed and arrived in front of an alley way, the Teddy look alike
pointed forward and Lupin stepped in. He was suddenly pelted forward, the world
spinning before him; it felt like he was being sucked into a tight pipe and
then suddenly he was spat out and landed on his knees. He looked up to find
himself staring back into his own eyes; his baby form sat in front of him.
Standing up suddenly, Remus looked around…It was like he was looking into a
pensieve of his own life. He watched his life go from year to year, following
his every step, he watched as questions were answered and memories were
remembered, he watched as he played around with Sirius and James as youngsters.
He watched himself grow and before he could turn away, he watched himself being
bitten by a werewolf…watching himself go through the pain inflicted on him. The
many operations he had to go through…the torture of everything was beyond
anything he remembered, and before he knew it he was watching his Dad get murdered,
the night he found him on the floor, blood pouring from his chest…but this time
was different…this time he saw who did it…the same werewolf who bit him;
Greyback…and then he was watching his mother killing herself…overdosing on some
tablets, binge drinking. Tears streamed down Remus's face as he watched the
terrors from his past unveil. The biggest question of his childhood was
answered. Remus found himself screaming at his dead mother; screaming for her
to stop…but she never did. Soon enough he found himself finding out about his
mother, a friend had come round that evening and found her in the bathroom…Remus
wasn't allowed to see his own mother, to say one last goodbye. Ministry
officials came and took her away, investigated on her; finding the answers to
their questions. They never once told Remus why his mum died; he had to live
with this one big question looming over him. He found himself watching his
mother's and father's funeral…he was shouting again, but no one could hear him.
He was always the unheard voice, always the one who went unnoticed. No one
cared about him…not really. Suddenly he felt a hand on his shoulder; he spun
round quickly, his head buzzing.

"My darling…I have missed you so much!" whispered Sarah.

"Mum?" asked Lupin, another tear streaming down his swollen face.
