So this is my first Harry Potter fanfic. It will include evilDumbledore, evilVoldemort, some OCs and eventual Wolfstar. I hope you will like it.
Part 1
Remus Lupin looked at the sky outside. It was the night of Halloween. The full moon was two and a half weeks away from now. He sighed. He felt so lonely. None of his friends had been with him at the last full moon. James because he was in hiding. Sirius because he didn't trust Remus anymore and Peter… actually Remus didn't know why Peter wasn't there. He sighed and put his teacup down. He understood why Sirius thought like he did. Remus had been sworn to secrecy by Dumbledore. He was not to tell anyone that he was trying to join Greyback's pack to make the werewolves join their side. Maybe the Order accepted him for being a werewolf but he had heard them when they thought he couldn't. Moody had called him the exception that confirms the rule. Which meant that other than Remus Moody thought all werewolves to be monsters. He'd heard Dumbledore reprimand Moody but no one else had tried to defend the werewolves. Not even James or Sirius and that had hurt. He knew that since they had become aurors and they joined the Order the two of them had finally been able to see the two sides of werewolves. Werewolves like Remus and werewolves like Greyback. Sadly most werewolves these days were like Greyback. Remus shuddered. He could still hear James ranting about Greyback and his people. James and Sirius had found a muggle family slaughtered by said werewolf and his pack.
"They're all beasts!" James had roared. No one had gone against him, no one but Lily. She had slapped her husband angrily. He had just stared at her and had then realized Remus had been there.
"Moony", he'd almost whimpered. Remus had just gotten up and looked around the room. Only Lily looked him in the eyes.
"Never", Remus had begun, nearly crying. "I never… I never thought any of you would…" then he had not been able to stand it and had left. Lily had followed him but none of his friends had.
He shuddered at the memory. He knew James didn't mean it. It was just the war and the death and the destruction. James didn't mean it. But it still hurt. Remus sighed and looked at the sky again. Looking for his favourite star. He soon found it. The Dog Star. Sirius. His Sirius. If he could call him that anymore. Sirius never stayed with him anymore, never talked to him other than to give him snide remarks or insinuating that he was the traitor. Remus wasn't, and he knew Sirius wasn't. He couldn't be. The wolf, Moony, refused to believe it and fought the thought so viciously Remus nearly took his own arm off at the last full moon. Moony refused to believe his pack member, his Padfoot was a traitor. Remus sighed again and got up. When did everything get so wrong? He hadn't talked to or seen James, Lily or Harry since they went into hiding. He missed them. All of them. He wished to hold baby Harry again. He smiled a little. His name was the only one Harry could say.
"Moony!" he heard the toddler squeal and smiled. "Pafoo! Womy!" He chuckled at the memory of Sirius "outraged" face when Harry couldn't say his name. There was a knock on his door. Remus looked up. That was strange. Who would come this late at night? He walked to the door, wand at a ready and leaned against it.
"Who is it", he asked.
"It's me", came the soft voice of Albus Dumbledore.
"Tell me something only Dumbledore would know."
"You have been spying on Greyback for me as well as researching human souls in secret. I sent you out to find something to control Greyback and stop him from hurting innocent."
Remus put his wand away and opened the door. He let Dumbledore in and noticed he was holding something wrapped in a blanket.
"Albus?" he asked. Dumbledore sighed and looked at him. There was no twinkle in his eyes. "Professor?"
"There was an attack tonight Remus", Albus said softly. "The Potters."
"No", Remus said and felt his blood turn cold. "Not… Not them. Not Lily, no… no not my sister!" He felt the tears threaten to fall. Albus looked at him sadly. "Please tell me she is okay! James must be! He couldn't have… no! And Harry! Oh Merlin Harry!"
"Harry is safe", Albus said. "He is okay. Lily and James…"
"Harry is safe", Remus asked through his tear and held out his arms when Albus moved towards him with the blanket in his arm. "Harry…" Remus sighed and kissed the boys dark hair. Then he noticed the scar. "What-"
"Voldemort found them", Albus said. "He killed James, then Lily sacrificed herself to save Harry. Voldemort cast the Killing Curse but it rebounded and he was destroyed."
"Destroyed", Remus asked and hugged Harry close. "Harry… Harry destroy-"
"Yes, Lily's love put a powerful spell on him and it pushed back the Killing Curse to its caster. The only remnant is that scar."
"Can't it be healed?"
"No, he will have it for the rest of his life. He might even have use of it. I have a scar on my knee of the London underground. Very useful. Some scars are more useful than others and I think young Harry's will be."
"Why bring him here though? Sirius is the godfath-"
"Sirius either betrayed the Potters or-"
"No Sirius would never-"
"Or… he is dead too."
"No…" Remus whimpered. "No not Sirius too! What of Peter?"
"Missing", Albus said and sighed. "I have Order members out searching for him. Voldemort may be gone but Harry is still in danger from Death Eaters."
"He is?" Remus asked holding Harry close.
"Yes. He needs to be protected and I think you are the best to do it."
"Me? But… my condition-"
"You will figure out a way. Remus they will look for him with his relatives. I want you to take Harry and vanish. Hide somewhere and don't tell anyone where you have gone. Including me. Do not even tell me your plans. When Harry is ready to start Hogwarts send me a message so I will know where to find you. But hide him. Hide him from everyone. I will make sure no one will look for you."
"How?" Remus asked.
"Don't worry I will handle it. Just take what you need and go."
"But we need somewhere to stay."
"I know you can figure it out my boy. You are one of the most brilliant wizards of our time. Now go."
Remus nodded and held his hand out and shook Dumbledore's hand.
"Thank you professor", he said.
"Don't thank me… now go."
Remus nodded, held Harry close and apparated away. As soon as he was gone Dumbledore looked around. He walked into the living room and transfigured one of his rings into a vial containing Remus' blood. He had collected it after one of the boy's transformations early on in his stay at Hogwarts. He spread the vast amount of blood on the floor. He then used his wand to tear up the place, making it look as if a fight had taken place. He carved a message into the stones of the chimney and nodded in satisfaction. He then left the house. He walked down the path and turned around. He looked at the little cottage and smiled. Then he raised his wand and with a flick of it Remus' small cottage was on fire. Satisfied he apparated away, leaving nothing but an inferno, ash and smoke.
He appeared at Godric's Hollow at the same time as three people left the house. Albus' eyes widened in shock. Sirius black had his arm around James Potter. James carried a crying Lily in his arms. They were alive! All three of them! How? When? What had happened? He hurried towards them. Sirius looked up when he saw him and Dumbledore could see his tears.
"Professor", he croaked.
"Sirius, wha… what happened?" Albus asked.
"We switched", James whispered. "We switched Secret Keepers. We thought… Sirius was too obvious."
"Pete", Sirius growled. "He got the job and he gave them up! He turned Prongs and Lily-flower in to Voldemort! I went to check on Pettigrew but his hiding place was empty! There had been no struggle! I realized that we'd been wrong! Moony wasn't the traitor… Rem… Remus was innocent." He sniffled. "Peter did it."
"Harry", Lily whimpered. "He took Harry."
"No Voldemort has been vanquished", Dumbledore said and they stared at him. "One of my spies told me what happened and why your house is in ruins. The spell thrown at Harry rebounded onto Voldemort."
"So… he is gone", Sirius asked.
"For the time being."
"Harry?" Lily whimpered and James put her down so she could stagger up to Albus and grip his robes. "Albus where is Harry?"
"He is not here with you?" Albus asked.
"No", James growled. "Where is my son Albus!?"
"I don't know", Dumbledore said and his brow furrowed. "One of the Death Eaters must have taken him."
Lily wailed and Dumbledore pulled her close to comfort her. He looked up at the house.
"You cannot stay here", he said. "Go to Remus' place. I am sure he will look after you. I will have a look around and rally the Order. We will find him Lily. I promise." Lily sobbed and Sirius and James pulled her close. The two best friends nodded and then they apparated to Remus' cottage. When they were gone Albus sighed. This was not going according to plan.
Sirius eyes widened in horror at what was in front of him. No, not Moony! They had appeared outside of Remus' cottage and it was lucky they had not decided to apparate into it. Because Remus' home was aflame! It was burning!
"REMUS!" Lily screamed and ran towards the cottage. James and Sirius close on her tail. All three pulled their wands and started casting Aguamenti. Soon the three of them had the fires out and they ran into the house.
It was wet and still smoking. Lily in a panic started to look around for the man that was as close to her as a brother. She and Remus had always been close. He had always been nice and quiet. They had connected before Remus got under the wings of James and Sirius. He was her friend first and they were often together when James and Sirius were at Quidditch practice for example. She was actually the first to figure out his condition and proved early on that she didn't care. She was always there for him and the other way around.
The war had pushed them apart and it hurt each day to think that her husband and her friend thought her brother was the spy and traitor. She ran into the living room and screamed in sorrow and collapsed onto the floor. Sirius and James heard her scream of anguish and ran to her. The floor was covered in what could only be blood. James hurriedly threw a charm that would tell what the liquid was. It stated that it was blood… Remus' blood. James felt his knees go weak and he sat down beside his wife and hugged her close. First Harry and now Remus? James felt tears go down his cheeks. Then he heard Sirius' animalistic roar and turned to look at him. Sirius was on his knees sobbing, above him on the chimney was a message:
"Mischief managed – Peter"
"MOONY!" Sirius screamed. James broke down then and clung to Lily while she clung to him. This night they had lost two important people. Their son and their brother.
