The past year Sirius Black has been in hiding. He visited Harry a few times and Harry visited him another time. At the moment however, Sirius could not visit Harry even though he was at Hogwarts. Why? Because Harry had disappeared during the Twiwizard Tournament and Sirius stood worried in Professor Dumbledore's office.
"Sirius, stop pacing on the floor or you'll burn a hole through my new French carpet," Dumbledore said, an attempt at a joke, but Sirius could tell that he, too, was worried.
"Haha," Sirius said weakly.
"Sirius, you stay here," Dumbledore said urgently, "I must go back to the Quidditch pitch in case Harry and Cedric are found."
"Okay," Sirius said simply.
***
Dumbledore watched on nervously. He had no idea where Harry and Cedric could have gone, but he suspected it had to do with Voldemort. What if Harry and Cedric died? What if Voldemort rises? What if... Dumbledore's what ifs were cut off when a loud commotion came from the trophy. Harry was back. Holding onto Cedric's limp hand. Cedric as dead.
***
Sirius heard about the incident with Moody/Crouch and rushed to see Harry in the hospital room, in his dog form of course.
Dumbledore had given Sirius instructions to get the old crowd back together, to help fight Voldemort.
The old crowd, Sirius thought, Arabella, Kate, Remus, Maddie...
Sirius stopped there. Maddie, he thought. He hadn't seen her in years and years. He thought nervously about Maddie's reaction to him at her doorstep. No doubt he herd about his "killings."
Sirius swallowed nervously. He nodded at everyone, hugged Harry, and went on to find the old crowd.
***
First Sirius visited Remus. Remus of course joined right up and said he'd visit Dumbledore the next day.
Arabella was next. He apparated to her house on 8 Privet Drive. She was not surprised to see Sirius at her door. She believed Sirius was innocent. Sirius trusted Arabella. After all, Arabella had disguised herself as an old lady for the past decade and kept an eye on Harry when he was at the Dursley's. Harry didn't know it, but Arabella Figg was who he knew as Mrs. Figg, the old lady that smelled of cats.
Next Sirius visited Kate who screamed when she saw Sirius. Remus however offered to accompany Sirius for the reason that, "Kate might be a tad surprised to see you, after you were said to be a murderer and all." Sirius was grateful. However, he suspected that might not be the only reason Remus was going with him. Remus and Kate had been going out for quite a long time years ago and he knew Remus must have been curious to see Kate after all that time.
After Remus and Sirius filled Kate in, she immediately said she needed to see Dumbledore. Remus offered to go with her and she accepted.
Last was to Maddie's. Sirius was most apprehensive about her. He apparated to her doorstep and rang the bell, hesitantly.
"Coming!" Maddie yelled. She flung open the door and gaped, her hand over her mouth. She started swaying.
"Er.. hi Maddie," said Sirius awkwardly, "Can, uh, can I come in?"
Maddie stared, disbelievingly.
"Is that a yes?"
Maddie didn't respond.
"Listen Maddie. I'm sure you probably heard all this stuff about me being a murderer, but I'm not. I swear. Look at me Maddie. I didn't do anything. Can you please let me in before I'm spotted?" Sirius asked.
Maddie stepped out of the doorway, which Sirius figured meant that he could come in.
Maddie sat on a chair and looked at Sirius.
"Okay," said Sirius, wondering if Maddie could even talk, "I was accused of being a murderer when..."
Sirius told Maddie all about Peter and Harry and Dumbledore and that night at the Shrieking Shack.
"Oh," was all Maddie said.
Well, at least she can talk, thought Sirius.
"I'm here to ask you if you'd be in an order Dumbledore is making against Voldemort."
"Yea. Of course, Sirius. I'll do anything," said Maddie and she looked at Sirius and smiled.
Sirius beamed back. He didn't know how he could have survived without seeing Maddie for that long.
She looks as gorgeous as ever, he thought.
They both kept smiling at each other, each in their own thoughts. Finally they both realized that they were staring and turned away.
"Well, I suppose I should be seeing Dumbledore," Maddie said uncertainly.
"Yea, I guess you should."
"Well, I'd better be on my way."
"Yes, you better."
Maddie turned to apparate.
"Wait," said Sirius, suddenly. His eyes got a little mischievous light in them.
***
Maddie grinned. She hadn't seen that trouble-making smile in so long.
"Yea," asked Maddie cautiously.
"Do you want me to go with you? We could, er, go on my broom."
"Across the Atlantic?"
"Of course," said Sirius.
"Sure!"
