CHAPTER 4

Back again! Thanks from going this far into the story. Hoping to get longer chaps up soon... with a little one and a half year old crawling all over u itz hard to write! I guess I should clear a few things up... the flashback scene would've been from right after year three... more likely year 4... about the time the 'Lie low at Lupin's' line would've been thought up. On top of that I mentioned a certian new charater in Chapter one... she's just a thought I had... and yes I did ALOT of time-line work behind her...(Thank the heavens for harrypotterlexicon, makes my life easier) ANYWAYS...ENJOY! (BTW: Rhee and Kieve are mine... MINE I TELL YOU!)

Rhee slowly stretched and sat up it her bed. Rolling her eyes she sighed and waved her hand and the gold and scarlett sheets she slept in turned a royal blue and the curtians drew themselves shut and turned jet black.

"I bloody hate mornings..."

"Get up Rhee, it's almost one o'clock in the afternoon, you need to get ready, I need your help with my class room," Remus smiled softly from the doorway.

"Bite me fuzzy..."

"Watch it young lady... just because you don't need a wand doesn't mean I still can't kick your butt..." he playfully waved his wand as she rolled around to look at him. With a flick of her wrist his wand went flying across the room. "Must I treat you like you were 5 again..." He slowly reached into his pocket, and pulled out a package...

"YOU DIDN'T!"

"Chocolate frog?"

"HELL YEAH!" the covers all but flew off the bed and in seconds she was at her uncle's side. "You know how long it's been since I've had one of these!"

"Couple of years..." Rhee stuffed the frog in her mouth and looked up at her uncle...

"Whafs da gatch?" she mumbled.

"Number one, you have to help me with my class room, and..."

"And what?" She swallowed the last bit of the choclate frog.

"Be me guest at the head's table tonight at the sorting ceremoney,"

"Kiss my lilly white-" her lips zipped shut.

"They'll be no more of that while you're at school young lady," a glare. "Do I make myself clear?" A sigh and a nod. "Good," her mouth opened.

"Thank you, now I guess we have lots of work to do?"

"Let me get dressed.," she walked to her trunk and began going through her clothes.

"Robes Rhee... you're in school," Remus smiled.

"I'll wear those ugly robes on one condition..."

"What's that?"

"No Red and Gold..."

"You're asking to wear your ACTUAL colors..."

"Well it's better than wearing yours!" she glared and Remus called his wand and with a small circle of his wrist her robes were no longer a scarlet, gold and black but a rich black and royal blue and neatly laid out on her trunk.

"That suits you..." Remus smiled. "Oh that and Kieve's arrived!"

"WHAT?"

"Didn't you know she's the new potions Mistress..."

"THE HELL I DID!" She shoved him out of the room. "I'm getting dressed!" she yelled with the slamming of the door.

Ah yes, Kieve... Kieve Mcgonagall, technically that wasn't her last name... but with the line of head masters and Mistress' in her family she figured she was going to be in line some day, might as well hold her mother's name and instill the fear of God into some of them, plus it was deceided upon long ago that her mother's name would be much safer. Kieve had first met Rhee as a two year old, and the two had an instant bond... not to mention the tragedy they had both shared in and the subsiquint support they had found in one another had practically had them attached at the hip for 2 years... the two years before Rhee had been sent away... before werewolves were sent to be sterilized... yet another thing his sister had beaten the odds on...

"REMUS!" a high pitched squeal burst though the front door of the house she shared with her brother. "REMUSSSSSS!"

"COMING!" Remus pounded down the stairs, nearly tripping on the last few steps. "Raine what is... Sirius?" Remus blinked.

"Remus I have the most wonderful news! Sirius and I got married!" she squealed her sand colored hair bouncing with her as she grabbed his hand jumping up and down... Sirius was chuckling from behind her.

"WHAT? YOU...WHAT THE!" Remus glared at Sirius as they stopped bouncing, he slowly stalked toward the dark haired man...

"Now... Remus... you knew I was planning on asking... Remus...fangs... REMUS!" Sirius was knocked back as the shorter man embraced him.

"IT'S ABOUT BLOODY TIME YOU WANKER!" Remus stepped back and slapped the taller man on the back.

"OH I'm not done yet..." Raine smiled.

"Huh?" Both men paused looking at her.

"Fuzzy...you're going to be an uncle..." both men's jaws hit the floor.

"Wh-wha-what?" Sirius studdered.

"That's right...padfoot's gonna be a father," she smiled sheepishly.

"You're sure... absolutly positive..." Sirius took her hands in his...

"As a heartbeat..."

"That's why you've been sick..." Remus blinked. "Raine... why didn't you tell me!"

"You can't keep your mouth shut... you'd be bragging all over town..." she hung her head. "Plus I thought you'd be upset...both of you..." Sirius scratched his head... the ministry...

"If you're far enough along they won't make you get rid of the baby..."

"Plus I don't wanna steal James and Lily's thunder..."

"You're farther along than Lil's though..."

"About 2 months... I'm due the end of May..." Remus could still remember the smile on his best friend's face, one of pure love and awe at his wife.

"Well... I'm writing the ol' bitty, and telling her..." Sirius grinned. "The baby is a Black after all...who's gonna mess with one of the oldest wizarding family's in the area... huh?"

"I'm naming her!" Remus piped. "I don't trust you two," he waved his finger between them.

"Her? You sure we're not adding another Boy to the Black line?" Raine smiled.

"Uncle Remus..."

"Just call it a hunch..."

"Uncle Remus!" Remus shook himself out of the memory. "Call what a hunch?" Rhee was standing in front of him with a confused look on her face.

"Nothing... nothing thinking out loud," he recovered.

"Okay..." she drawed..." Then shall we go..."

"Yes, let's be off then..." she bounded down the stairs in front of him and he could've sworn he was watching his sister all over again...

A/N: Side note... I chose Raine (spelled that way for a reason) it means Queen... Plus wait 'till you meet Kieve...
