I really love the idea of this, I don't even know why.

Also, shoutout to the inspiration of this OC- the lovely Kem'Ajiana

And thank you to Kem'Ajiana and Google for the information I use in these parts

Okay I'm just changing EVERYTHING ENJOY

Okay, I've played with FIVE DIFFERENT ENDINGS HERE. THREE of which included the following scenario, just at three separate times. One of which didn't include the following story line AT ALL. One of which followed canon, to a degree.

But here we are. The end.

And then an epilogue.

I don't know how many chapters before the actual end, but I do have more series/stories starting.


"You should go home." Sirius said, sinking into a chair next to her. "I doubt you've gotten much sleep in the last few months."

"After everything we have done- after everything the Order did- he might not make it, Sirius." She said quietly. "What do I do if he doesn't?"

Sirius wrapped an arm around her, squeezing her shoulders. "They only said there was a slight chance this next full moon could be his last. But I'll be with him and there will be Healers, he'll be fine."

She leaned against him. "Sometimes I still wonder why I ever left-"

"Dora."

"Sirius, it's true. Sometimes I wonder what would have happened if I hadn't left with you two." She said. "I'm not saying I regret it, I don't. I don't regret a thing."


May 12, 1998

"We've tried stabilising him with potions." The Healer said calmly. "But he won't last the day. I'd suggest you go in, and say your goodbyes. I'm truly sorry, we did what we could."

Sirius led the two women to the room, which he had left nearly three hours before when the moon waned and Remus had turned back but simply stopped breathing within minutes of the transformation back to himself.

Sirius took Teddy from Tonks as they entered the room, and she went straight to Remus. She took his hand, and began talking quietly to him, blinking away tears. Remus was awake, but clearly weakened, and he forced a tiny smile at whatever Tonks had said, squeezing her hand gently.

"Sirius." Erin said quietly. "Sirius, do you want me to get Harry? He should be here-"

"I'll do it." Sirius decided. "I have an idea, Erin, if you'll trust me."

Erin simply raised an eyebrow at him, and he nodded, slipping from the room. "Well, Ted, now's as good a time as any, I suppose." Sirius said, heading for the exit of St Mungo's. He sent two patronuses off, and stood quietly outside St Mungo's for a few minutes. There were two pops as the two men Sirius had called for appeared.

"Harry, King." Sirius greeted, shaking their hands. "Thanks for showing up."

"You said it was urgent." Harry said, taking Teddy from Sirius.

"Remus is going to die, they're sure of it." Sirius said, surprising himself with how calm he was. Kingsley and Harry looked stunned. "And I have a plan, if you two will help me. Did you bring them, Harry?"


Erin looked up from where she was sitting as Sirius and the other entered. Tonks looked up as well, and Remus looked over to them.

"I have an idea. If you'll allow it, Dora- and if you'll agree to it, Erin." Sirius said. "I was planning on my best mate to stand next to me at my wedding, and I hate that we'll never have that, Moony."

Remus gave a small smile.

"But a formal wedding was never my style." Sirius said. "Erin, will you marry me, right here? While Moony can still be with us?"

Erin looked towards Tonks, who gave her a side smile and nodded. She looked at Sirius and nodded. "A formal wedding was never my intention, anyway." She said. Harry shifted Teddy and pulled out a small box from his robes, setting it in Sirius' hand.


They left shortly after, with Harry and Kingsley, to give Tonks and Teddy some time with Remus alone. Kingsley returned to the Ministry, but Harry stayed with Sirius and Erin in the waiting room.

Around midnight, Tonks entered, Teddy on her hip. "He's gone." She said quietly. Sirius stood, wrapping his arms around Tonks and Teddy, the latter of which didn't understand a single thing that was happening. Erin ran a hand over Harry's shoulder gently, as the young man had buried his head in his hands.

"We're not going anywhere." Sirius said quietly, looking at Erin and Harry. "Erin and I- we're going to fix up Grimmauld Place, she already blasted a few walls in the last few days, and we're going to all be together. You're going to be okay. You're welcome to stay with us too, Harry- all three of you are."

This was the point when Tonks truly began crying. Sirius held her tighter, Teddy now leaning on Sirius' shoulder instead of Tonks. She mumbled something, something that Sirius almost didn't catch.

And when he did catch it, it felt like his heart froze, as he muttered two words: "Oh, shit."
