Hello again! I hope you are having a nice time.

The revelation

Remus couldn't have known, he couldn't. Hermione was the brightest witch of her age, and he knew that. Even then, he wasn't expecting her to find out his secret.

"I trusted you!" She screamed, "I keep your secret. And you are his friend!" Then, she turned to the boys and said: "Don't trust him, Harry. He is a werewolf, he wants to kill you too"

And his heart stopped, and he couldn't breathe any longer. She knew, and now she hated him. But she was not completely right.

"You are brilliant, Hermione. But you're mistaken about this. I do not want Harry dead and I did not help Sirius get into the castle." He said, and then admitted: "But I do am a werewolf"

It was hard to see their faces at his statement. He was a monster. With his chest hurting he asked her "How long have you known?" and in his head, he already knew the answer.

"Ages," Hermione said, with an eco in his head that continued saying "I have known for ages" but in this time Hermione only added "Since professor Snape's essay"

Remus wanted to cry and laugh at the same time, of course, Snivellus would give them clues.

"He will be happy about it, it was his intention after all. Did you follow the moon cycle? Did you compare it with my sick days?"

"That and you boggart, sir. It's a full moon"

He laughed a little bit. "You are the cleverest witch I ever met" He wanted to say but the voice in his mind kept telling him that that wasn't true. "You are the cleverest witch of your age, Hermione" he ended up saying.

"But I'm not, otherwise I would have told everyone about you. Although I'm guessing that some of them already know"

That made him smile. "Some part of the staff knew"

"And they let you teach here, anyway?" Ron asked. "Are they mad?!"

For some reason hearing his voice altered the wolf, and that was no good at all. He tried to breathe, and use the same technique that he used all year long to be able to talk to him. "She is mine, and that boy wants her for himself, I can smell it."

He was getting crazier every month, with two different voices in his head talking to him. The wolf trying to claim their mate and now the girl giggling at the back of his head.

"Dumbledore convinced the other ones that I'm trustworthy," He said, fighting against the urge to take Hermione far away from him.

"And he was wrong!" Harry screamed at him "You helped him! You are with him!"

He said pointing at Sirius who hadn't said a word, he was just looking at him and Hermione in a weird way.

"I did not help him, and I'll explain something"

Remus threw them their wands, and he couldn't help notice that Hemione's wand felt familiar in his hand and that its magic responded to him. He decided to think about it later when it was calmer.

"There, you have your wands now, you are armed. Will you listen now?"

"Well, if you hadn't been helping him," Said Harry in a cautious voice, "Then, how did you know he was here?"

"I have the map, Harry. I was in my office when I saw..."

"You know how to use it?" Harry interrupted.

"'Course I do. I'm Moony, it's my nickname, I helped create the map." Remus answered, waving his hand impatiently, and then he interrupted Harry when he said "The important thing is that I was watching you because I knew you were going to try and help Hagrid. Am I right?"

All three of them just look at him speechless.

"And you might have been wearing your father's old cloak, Harry but…"

"How do you know about that?!"

"Oh please, the number of times we used it, Harry!" He almost screamed, he was getting frustrated. "I know about it, and that's the relevant information."

He sighed and pulled his hair with his right hand. "You look handsome when you are frustrated" He ignored it and continued explaining. "You see, even with the cloak you will appear on the map. And I saw you, getting out of Hagrid's, but you were not alone, there was someone else with you."

"No, we weren't!" Harry exclaimed. But Remus kept talking.

"I could not believe it, I thought it was a malfunction, that something was wrong. He couldn't be with you."

"That's because no one was with us!"

"And then I saw someone else going towards you, another dot with the name of Sirius Black. I saw everything through the map, and how he pulled two of you here"

"It was just me!" Said Ron angrily.

"Oh, no. It wasn't" He said, "Can I see your rat, Ronald?"

"Why? It's just Scabbers, it's just a rat" He said trying to protect his rat. But Moony was closer to the surface and he was getting tired, so he took the rat by force.

"Is not a rat!" Said Sirius, finally getting out of the confusion that made him speechless for a few minutes.

"That is where you are wrong, Ronald," Remus affirmed, holding the rat in front of his face. "May I present you this rat? He is not called Scabbers, he is..."

"Peter Pettigrew" interrupted Sirius angrily.

Please review! I would love to know what you think
