Lupin
It was almost here. The full, bright moon that would again change him into a monster. James and the marauders used to call it his "Fuzzy little problem." If James could only see him now. He had always wondered what would have happened if James hadn't died all those years ago? Would he now be living high on the hog, or would he be living above the HogsHead, instead of teaching here at Hogwarts. There was also a third possibility: Would he have ended up here anyway? Was it all part of one big plan leading up into the dramatic ending, like a Shakespearian play?
In less than an hour he would forget himself. He would forget about all his friends, family, coworkers, and students. He would run wild through woods seeking only the taste of blood. It would be a painful transformation tonight. He had been neglecting his potion. He'd have to call Snape to fill in for him and teach his classes the next day. He would feel like the walking dead in the morning.
Everyday he would teach his classes but his mind wouldn't really be on them, or the students, it would be on the next full moon. On nights where he wasn't filled with lust for blood he would sit at his desk and try to write up notes for the next days lessons. Sometimes, though he would see if he could pull some strings for Sirius, stuck there in Azkaban. Once he had actually gotten him a decent meal: Steak and eggs. He wouldn't even try to see if he could get him out of that dreadful place. That was too much to hope for.
He was cursed, he new that. As a child Fenreer Greyback had bitten him. He was probably doubly cursed, he could barely remember getting in a fight with something or other, and then the taste of something so sweet and the color silver. It stung him that he had probably killed such a pure, beautiful creature, but he barely remembered it. If he could remember any more than that, he would probably lead a dreadful, dreadful life.
It had come, the moment he had been dreading, the moment that he would start to grow thick fur all over his body, the moment that he would search out any blood. The night that would seem to last but a moment.
OK so so far iv'e gotten no reviews on this chapter. So if you do not review I will asume that you don't love me and will go away forever:( (lol)
