Previously: "Dad please you have to help him! Something's not right." Kal screamed as Sirius fell to the floor and began began to jerk about, having some sort of fit.
~*~*~*~
Pain.
~*~*~*~
"HELP!!" Regulus screamed loudly as James quickly moved Sirius into the recovery position and tried to find his pulse. The door opened and the death eater who had with Regulus walked in, he took one look at Sirius and ran out again, returning seconds later with Rodolphus and several other men in tow. They opened the cell door and two of the men grabbed James, dragging him away from Sirius, another man tried to do the same with Kal but Rodolphus shook his head and the man moved away. Rodolphus cast several spells on Sirisu before turning to the man who had been with him earlier, "Saul, get me a hiplograse and a quantise." Saul nodded and quickly left, returning seconds later with the potions. Rodolphus forced Sirius' mouth open and poured the first potion in, massaging Sirius' throat until he was sure it had gone down, he did the same with the second one. The potions didn't seem to do anything at all and Rodolphus turned to Saul, "Floo him to St Mungo's. Keep your hood up, don't get recognised, just leave him in the lobby." He ordered. The man nodded and cast a feather light charm on Sirius before lifting him up and removing him from the cell,
Kal watched them leave with a terrified look on his face. "Why did you help him?" He asked Rodolphus quietly.
"He is of no importance to us." The man replied coldly, turning and leaving the cell.
Kal sank to the floor, Lucius moved forwards to comfort him but the boy scowled, "Don't you dare. Don't you dare even look at me! Sirius could be dying and I bet you don't even care!!" He screamed. "You said I couldn't love him but you have no idea! None of you do!!"
"Kal..." Severus tried.
"NO!" Kal yelled, jerking away from his dads touch. "Don't touch me!"
As Kal continued to scream James sat down silently, making sure he was as close to Remus as possible and Remus squeezed his knee gently. "You okay?" He whispered.
"I punched him… What if… What if that's why he had the fit?" James asked, tears now streaking down his cheeks.
Remus' eyes widened, he hadn't thought about that. "No Jay. People don't have fits just because of one punch." The werewolf said softly, hoping he was right.
"But…"
"Jay. It was not your fault okay?" Remus said sternly, making the other man look at him, James gave a jerky nod and Remus pulled him closer, pressing a soft kiss to the man's head as he watched Lucius and Severus move away from Kal.
*~*~*~*~*~HP~HP~HP~*~*~*~*~*
Remus opened his eyes and looked around the room, James was fast asleep next to him, Regulus was asleep with his head resting on lucius' knees. Lucius' own head was on Severus' shoulder as he too dozed, Severus' eyes were shut but Remus could tell that the man was awake, his arm was wrapped around Draco who was talking quietly to Blaise. Kal was pacing by the door. Remus stretched and stood up, wandering over to Kal. "Hey." He said softly, Kal simply nodded and continued to pace before eventually stopping and biting at his lip, staring out of the cell door. "You said you remembered Rodolphus from your dreams?" Remus asked Kal who nodded, "Well do you remember being here?"
"No, sorry. I've tried but... Nothing." The teenager said quietly.
"Not your fault." Remus assured him. "Listen.. I... I knew, about you and Sirius." It was all said so softly that no one but Kal could hear it, "And whilst I may not approve because of the age difference I do realise just how much you love each other."
Kal gave a small smile before sighing, "Looks like you're the only one who does." He muttered.
"They'll come 'round." Remus said quietly, "Although... Well it might help Sirius' case if you admit that you lied about your age when you first met him."
"I will, I'll tell them everything. When we're out of here... When I know Sirius is okay." Kal's voice broke at the thought of Sirius being anything but okay and Remus squeezed his shoulder gently. "Thanks." Kal mumbled, "You're not as bad as I first thought." Remus raised a slightly amused eyebrow and Kal flushed, "Saw you and James together before, when I was leaving Siri's house. I thought you were a homewrecking whore to be honest but then when I spoke to James about Lily it was obvious he didn't love her and did love you so..." Kal gave a small shrug and Remus smiled gently.
"I thought I was a homewrecking whore at first too." He said making Kal laugh.
"I don't get it... You had an amazing guy in love with you for seven years and you choose to fall for James!" Kal smirked, "Not that I'm complaining..." He added,
Remus laughed, glad they were distracting themselves from the situation. "Can't believe Sirius told you about that." He muttered, "I tried to love Sirius back but... well it was too wierd you know? We'd been best friends for so long... I screwed up by trying to make it work, kissed him once but felt nothing, unfortunately it just made him think he had a chance but.... Well none of that matters anymore. I've never seen Sirius as happy as he is now."
"If he's even still alive." Kal muttered.
"He is. Sirius is a fighter." Remus said, trying to persuade himself as much as Kal. Kal frowned slightly and raised his hand to his head, "You okay?" Remus asked.
"Really bad headache." The teenager muttered "Umm... That death eater with Rodolphus."
"Saul." Remus supplied.
"Yeah him.. Did you recognise him?" Kal asked.
Remus frowned, "No but Sirius did, he mentioned something about 'bartender' I think."
Kal's eyebrows shot up, "Of course!! He's the bartender at the club where I met Sirius!" He said loudly, Draco and Blaise looked over at him, "That death eater? He bartends at the three broomsticks sometimes too." Draco said. "That must be how he knew so much about us all..."
"Bastard." Kal muttered under his breathe, still massaging his head.
"Have you got a headache?" Severus asked, having opened his eyes. Kal scowled at his father but gave a small nod, "You should try to sleep."Severus said quietly. Kal scowled at him some more and turned back to stare out of the cell door, Severus sighed.
"He's right, you should sleep, You can use my cloak as a pillow." Remus offered, Kal frowned slightly but gave a small nod and thanked the man when he handed over his cloak. Kal curled up in the corner and tried to get to sleep, watching as Remus walked back over to James and curled up around his lover.
*~*~*~*~*~HP~HP~*~*~*~*~*
Kal had about three hours sleep before his usual nightmares began. He was pulled out of the dreams by Severus' voice, begging him to wake up. As Kal opened his eyes he saw everyone watching him and closed them again, groaning slightly, then the images from his dreams came shooting back to him, "Oh fuck."
"What?" Lucius asked.
"I... I... That's what Rodolphus meant by 'He is not important'... He doesn't need you people... You'r only here to make sure I do what they want." Kal whispered, standing up and beginning to pace again.
"What do you mean?" Draco asked but Kal simply shook his head and moved to the bars of the cell.
"Oi! Rodolphus!" He yelled, the main door opened and Rodolphus walked in, moving to stand in front of Kal. "I know what you want." Kal said quietly, "I remember everything now..."
Rodolphus gave what could almost be considered a smile, "The master will be pleased." He said.
"I didn't say I was going to do what is needed." Kal pointed out, Rodolphus' face took on an ugly scowl. "However-" Kal added, "If you tell me what's up with Sirius and promise to leave my family alone then I'll do what you want."
