(A/N: Well, I'm back and at it again. I'll see how long I make this chapter, because I have work to do. Oh well. I would like to dedicate this fic to Unknown Sorcerer, because I say so.)


A New Life part 3


With a mighty cheer, everyone raised their glasses, and a mighty "TO A NEW LIFE!" rang through the great hall, all though most of it was from the Griffindors. Across the room, it seemed as if none of the slytherins even moved their lips, and none of them had taken a drink from their goblet. There was a great murmur through the Hall, but Dumbledore silenced them again. "Sirius will be staying with us as our guess for the last few days as our guest. Should you see him in the halls, please, treat him with all of your courtesy. And now my friends, dig in!

With a great scraping of chairs, everyone sat down to eat. Most people were now talking about the upcoming Qudditch cup finals. Even Ron joined in, but soon stooped to talk with Harry and Hermionie. They didn't talk about Sirius, but instead about the end of the year. This made them depressed, but Ron and Harry could not help but laugh at the dark glances the Draco shot between them and Sirius. Harry knew, however, that Lucius Malfoy would try to intervene.

Breakfast was a big meal of eggs, sausages, latka like pattys, fruits, a foreign dish which no one could identify, and therefore avoided, and to drink was water. Breakfast lasted all of an hour when people started to leave. People wanted to go out around the lake while it was warm, and to take a last stroll for the rest of the summer. Harry and Ron and Hermionie all rushed up to the teachers table to talk to Sirius, but an evil voice from behind them froze them in their tracks.

"And just where do you think your going?" Snape said, his voice full of malice and hatred.

"We just wanted to see Sirius" Harry and Ron said. This only seemed to make Snape even angrier

"You are not aloud to see him. Now, go along unless you all want detentions for the rest of the school year!"

Just then, Dumbledore walked up behind Snape, with Sirius to his left.

"Is there a problem here, Serverus?" Dumbledore said, calmly and friendly

"Why no" Sirius responded, knowing what would happen "It is just I told this three that they were not aloud to see Sirius."

"For what reason"

"er……..I didn't want them to disturb him" Snape said, obviously holding back the need to puke, he, wanting something good for Sirius? If there was a god, then a bolt of lightning would come down and strike Sirius.

"Oh, well thank you Serverus, but I think it is ok if they talk to Sirius. Come, you must show me that new potion you were talking about that give one the ability to jump ten feet up in the air." And with that, Snape and Dumbledore left, leaving Harry, Hermionie, and Ron alone with Sirius. This was it, Harry was finally about to talk to Sirius, for the first time as a freed man.




Sorry, I know this is earlier then I promised, but I am going to stop here. I will continue this, and I promise that in the next installment, we will get passed school. Bye now.
