At long last I'm back at Hogwarts for now I can put my plan into action soon. The train ride here was alright and now Arty is in my year. Severus is in his 4th year while Arty and I are in our 3rd year. Sirius of course had ignored me during the summer and on the train ride to Hogwarts. He did not even bother to talk or even say Hi or wave or anything due to the fact Sirius was too wrapped up with his best friends. I hated being ignored, but I also hate it a lot when he yells at me. It makes me want to cry, but I try to be strong in front of Sirius and later when I'm alone I cry my heart out.
At the sorting of the other first years I was quiet and I wonder what would have happened if I wasn't sorted into Slytherin. I knew the answer, Mother and Father would be furious at the thought, and I figured it would more than likely wouldn't have mattered much to Sirius. I had to be Slytherin, I have to be perfect so that Mother and Father wouldn't be upset as much with Sirius, and I had to make up excuse after excuse for my older brother Sirius to everyone.
To me magic is magic there is no such thing as a good or evil spell. It depends on how it is used for even a simple spell can be used to cause damage. For example a soap charm normally used to clean floors if used on a person's mouth for a certain amount of time can kill them. Oh looks like the sorting is over and time to eat dinner. After I was finished eating I left to Slytherin's 3rd year common room and Arty followed.
Arty asked me eagerly "So, Reggie when will the plan happen?"
A simple question needs a simple answer. So I replied simply with "When the time is right of course. Anyway how was your summer?"
I of course had no idea when I should put the plan into action, but I'm not telling Arty about it. Arty replied bitterly "My father was working almost 24/7 and my poor Mother was left to cry. Of course I was there for her when she was depressed. We are not poor yet my Father feels to work like a mad man. Always, Always about work and so on. Same old same old kind of thing going on, Reggie."
The room was a bit warm; I was too lazy to make my way to turn the fire place off besides Arty might be cold. I took off my cloak and unbuttoned my first two buttons. I folded my cloak and I told Arty "At least you have a mother who cares about you. I know my parents only wanted heirs to the Black Family name. I overheard them talking about it once. I'm a back up if my brother fails."
I really didn't mind that much and as far as they know Sirius has not failed. I'll never ever if I can help it let them know. At least my parents can't do legilimency or Sirius would be in trouble. Maybe I should look up how to block out those who can perform legilimency. All through it would be difficult, I'm willing to research, and try to do it.
I looked at Arty who looked quite red and maybe feverish. I suppose he is coming down with an illness or something. I sighed and thought to myself how bothersome for I might catch it. I really dislike getting sick. I asked Arty "Are you feeling ill?"
Arty seemed a bit flushed, but then replied quickly "It feels really warm in the room."
I looked and saw that the fire place was on. I walked over and then asked "Better, Arty?"
Arty nodded and he looked a little pale now. I sighed lightly and told him "Arty, Arty you are so sensitive about the temperature. Just do what I do when it is cold put on some more clothing. When it is warm then take off your cloak."
Arty told "That is a good idea Reggy."
I looked at the time and there are going to be classes tomorrow. It is best to go to sleep early and wake up early no need to get bags under my eyes. I walked to the sleeping area and Arty follows. Arty's bed is next to mine on my right. I changed into my night clothing that are a dark blue and went fast to my own dream world. However after a while it turns into a nightmare and it was about my brother saying 'You are no brother of mine. You are weak, pitiful, and easy to hate.' I woke up with tears running down my cheeks and I mutter to myself "Just a nightmare. Calm down and go back asleep."
I dreamt of my early childhood with my older brother Sirius and before I knew it, time to rise and shine to eat some breakfast at the great hall, but of course I was early. I was walking when I saw a fourth year student calling Lily Evans a mudblood. I honestly do not use that word unless around Mother or Father for it is a stupid and out dated name plus no human has mud in their veins. How stupid it is to call anyone a mudblood.
I sighed and walked over to the dumb Slytherin person who I didn't even bother to remember his name. He said to me "Evans is a filthy mudb--"
I stated flatly "Shut up that word is so very outdated that it is not even funny. Plus makes you sound like an idiot."
He sneered "You're defending--"
This person is highly annoying and I do not like his tone. He is highly emotional and not seeing the point.
I said to him sharply "My point is the term is outdated."
Then I smirked at him and added "Of course you do not use big words now do you. Plus have no knowledge of the fact no human can live with mud in their veins. Every living animal or person has blood."
He snarled "Black, you are insulting me a fourth year. I'm Ranga Sand."
I laughed mocking and then told him "I don't give a damn at all Sand about years. Not all older people are smart. Now you're getting off topic. My case is the term you use is over used, honestly how shameful are you Mister Sand to use old words, and with no intelligence at all."
Sand snapped "Shut up Black."
I replied "My case and point. You're a disgrace to every single wizard. Go before I have to hex you for wasting my time."
Sand decided to try and hex me. I smirked and blocked the hex then cast a half way body bind. I sneered to him "And next time Sand watch your mouth around me. I'm from the Black family and I hate disrespectful idiots. Now Mister Sand say to Evans that you're sorry for that lame ass insult."
Sand muttered "Damn you Black. Evans I'm sorry that lame ass insult. Now let me go."
I remarked "Uh can't hear you Mister Sand. You're like a mouse."
Sand flushed red then yelled "Damnit all right fine! Evans, Sorry for that lame ass insult!"
Lily Evans looked stunned and I stated "Okay, Sand. Do yourself a favor and be more creative or it will be boring."
I undid the spell and Sand walked away quickly cursing. Evans started to say "Than--"
I sighed then stated flatly "No, need for that Evans. I just did that because I found that term highly annoying since almost everyone in Slytherins every single day. Along with the family, family friends, and almost every single pure blooded that is not a so called traitor. I of course am a special case for I happen to find uncreative insult to be dreadfully boring. Best not to tell my brother Sirius for he would not believe it anyways and I'll be going Evans."
I knew Sirius wouldn't ever believe it and he would call me a liar or claim I'm up to something.
I heard Evans mutter "He is Sirius's brother."
I rolled my eyes and thought to myself 'Honestly, some People lack creative insults or even witty ones.'
-Third Power -
Lily decided to go up to Sirius and ask him what his brother's name is for the boy didn't tell her.
Lily politely asked "What is your younger brother's name."
Sirius spite out "Regulus. I hate my family."
Then Sirius asked "Why did he do something? I'll be back!"
Sirius went to find Regulus and then James asked "Did he insult you? "
Lily rolled her eyes then replied "No, in fact he sort of stood up for me when a 4th year Slytherin used that term 'Mudblood'."
James eyebrows raised and he asked "Really?"
Lily stated "He said it was outdated, old, boring, uncreative, and highly annoying since a lot of people use it. Then he hexed the guy and told him to say sorry. I was shocked."
James said to Lily "And Sirius doesn't even know about it. Although I highly doubt Sirius will believe it unless he sees it with his own eyes. "
-Back to Regulus's View-
I had eaten a quick breakfast then I saw my brother walking towards me with an annoyed expression. He always yells first then asks questions later. I prepared myself for his yells and calmed myself.
Sirius sneered "You called her a mudblood didn't you Regulus."
I decided to remain quiet for I knew he wouldn't believe me plus he has already made up his mind about it. I sighed and then Sirius yelled "Answer me!"
I stated quietly "Stop yelling brother."
Sirius snapped "Don't call me brother, I'm ashamed of having you as a brother, and you are not worth anything to me."
Those words hurt a whole lot and I choose to ignore it. He doesn't know or he doesn't believe the truth. I calmed myself to keep the tears at bay and I told him "Brothe--"
Sirius grabbed my wrists and then told me sharply "Don't call me that Regulus for you are not worthy of calling me that at all. You called Lily Evans a mudblood."
My brother doesn't know his own strength and I tried to look like I'm not in pain. I can handle this pain at least he is here talking to me even though he is being cruel. I felt numb, my two best friends are not here, and everyone is staring. Sirius never listens anymore since Hogwarts and always having excuses for our parents. I said to him quietly "Brot--"
His grip tightened, my pulse was racing, and I was feeling slightly faint. I stated faintly "Brother, I didn't call her that at all."
Sirius snapped "You're lying."
He didn't believe me and Evans wasn't able to tell him for he just assumed before it was over. My head was getting dizzy and I managed to say "Brother, I'm not lying." Then I passed out and the world was a blur. When I woke up I saw Severus and Arty they were worried. I looked at my wrists and they felt tender plus of course bruised.
I said to them "I'm fine. I Just passed out from the pain."
Severus raised an eyebrow. Arty said to me "It was Sirius again wasn't it Reggy."
I replied "Sadly, yes. I didn't have the heart to hex him to next Thursday."
Severus asked "And how did it occur?"
I told them everything and in ending said "Sadly I do not have luck and he didn't believe me. Sirius takes after Mother in her temper, stubbornness, and pride in some ways such as believing he is not ever wrong."
Arty said to me "You're right about the word mudblood being overused."
I replied "Yes. Plus it makes them want to prove themselves even more and so on you know Arty. Also that 4th year ticked me off acting as if just because he is older that he is correct."
I had decided to add that bit mainly to also have a little bit of fact to it. Some wizards have no motive to become stronger and try to insult others which in turn make them stronger, but for a reason it makes muggle borns even more motive to prove themselves. When even without being even insulted do their best unlike some lazy purebloods that have nothing, but an old insult with in itself is quite pitiful.
Severus told me flatly "You have a way of upsetting the older boys."
The older Slytherins well most of them are easy to upset and fun to toy with like I'm a Kitten playing with a mouse.
I smirked then replied "Of course since I'm not being the typical 3rd year Slytherin."
Most of the third year and lower years learn from the fourth year and higher. I of course don't care what the higher years say since they have not earned my respect, trust, or anything. I found them to be prats who can't get off their high horse and admit when they are wrong. So far I have not had to say 'sorry' due to the fact that I make sure to make no mistakes. My brother Sirius does not believe me and I have no idea to make him see the truth of the matter.
Brother,
Why can't believe me?
I'm telling the truth,
It is painful to me,
My emotions are a wreck.
Don't how to make you believe me,
I just don't understand,
You hurt me deeply inside my heart,
But I'll forgive you.
For you don't know any better,
Hogwarts has changed you,
What has happened to you?
I want my brother back,
The one who protected me,
The one who cared about me,
The one who loved me.
What have you become my brother,
My brother Sirius?
I won't ever give up,
I'll do anything to have you notice me,
I will not lose hope.
No matter how hopeless it might seen,
It will be worth it.
