HEY PEOPLE, I DECIDED TO BE NICE. BY THE WAY THE 20 REVIEWS THING? I WAS KIDDING. I DON'T CARE ABOUT REVIEWS AS LONG AS I WRITE A STORY THAT I LIKE. BY THE WAY MORGANA, I LOVED THAT QOUTE.
NOTHING BELONGS TO ME. HEHE.
Ding Dong. Remus pressed the doorbell and stepped back.
A few moments later the door was opened by a 14 year old female version of Sirius.
"Cassi,"
"Professor Lupin!" Cassiopeia Black, or Cassi to her friends, hugged him "Mum! Aunt Addi! Come here!"
Two women came running. Marianna Black, short with long red blond hair and grayish blue eyes, welcomed him in.
Adhara Black, with red hair and green eyes, leapt into his arms.
"Addi, it's so good to see you. You too Mari." She shifted the baby in her arms to hug him.
"How's Remy and Jamie?" Remus asked, referring to the newest additions to the Black family. The twins Remus, and James, had been born almost five months ago. Named for Sirius's best friends. Remus, or Remy as he was dubbed by his sister, had his mothers red hair and his fathers brown eyes. James or Jamie had Sirius's hair and Mari's eyes. The two were perfect mixes of their parents unlike Cassi who took after her father, not only in looks but in personality.
Marianna or Mari as she had been dubbed by her husband, smiled shyly. She was a soft spoken person by nature but marriage to a certain loud mouthed Sirius Black had changed that.
" They miss you and their father. Remus, it's been too long."
"And how are you?" He said noticing her stomach. Apparently Sirius had been by.
"Oh this? Well, Sirius always said he wanted a big family."
Remus grinned but Sirius's name reminded him why he was there.
"You all have to come with me. Now."
"Why?" Cassi asked, her brown eyes narrowing, They seemed to turn black. Just like Sirius's did when he was mad.
"It's Sirius. He's sick. Really sick. Dumbledore thinks if you are there too it'll help him." Mari nodded her face set.
"Oh one more thing, Lily and James are back." Addi and Mari had no reaction for a few seconds. Then..
"You're kidding. They're back? How? Why?" They burst into questions.
"I don't know, but they are. Come on we have to get back."
Mari got the twins ready to go and , Addi and Cassi got ready to go and Remus pulled out his wand.
He pointed it at the fire place and green flames shot out.
"I don't suppose you have any floo powder." He asked Mari. She shook her said.
"No, it's not a thing most muggles keep around their houses." He smiled. Sometimes he forgot that Mari and Addi were both muggles. Sirius's dad had been a muggle and his mum had been a witch. Both had died when Sirius and Addi were kids but to make a long story short, Sirius had inherited his mum's powers and Addi hadn't. The twins most certainly had inherited magic. You could just tell. Plus there was the thing where when they were unhappy about something, things began to fly.
Remus conjured up some floo powder and threw it in the fire.
"Hogwarts!" he called and the girls stepped into the fire.
The world spun around him and then they were there.
"There you are." McGonagall ran up to them. She dragged them to the infirmary.
James sat next to Sirius's bed. Harry had fallen asleep in the bed next to him and Lily was playing with his hair gently. Dumbledore was talking to Snape in hushed worried voices.
James looked up. Then he leaned down to whisper something to Sirius who opened his eyes.
Mari gasped in seeing her long-dead friends looking very much undead.
"James! Lily!" Lily embraced Mari, then Addi. She led them over. Remus slipped his arms around Addi.
"I'm sorry, Mari. He's not getting any better. And now Harry's getting sick too."
Mari leaned over to look at Sirius. His eyes were open and he smiled when he saw them. Mari took his hand and James gave her his seat.
"Hey." She whispered.
"Hey." His voice was weak.
"Some one's here to see you." She took Remy and Jamie from Addi.
"Hey guy, do you remember your daddy?"
Jamie screeched happily. Remy just reached his arms from his father. Sirius glanced at her belly.
"You didn't tell me."
"I tried but we don't have an owl. I thought Cassi might have told you, but when she told me about the tournament I decided you had enough to worry about." She pushed his hair out of his eyes.
" Did I miss something? When do you have twins?' James asked.
"James, Lily, I want you meet James Castor Black and Remus Pollex Black. Also known as Jamie and Remy." Addi introduced them. She winked at James.
"Hey Da. How are you feeling?" Cassi asked as she sat down next to her father.
" A little dizzy. But I'm-" He was cut off by a hacking cough. Dumbledore looked up and hurried over, a look of extreme worry on his face.
"Sirius, maybe you should take some more of the sleeping potion." He handed Sirius a small bottle. Sirius glanced at his baby sons. Then he reluctantly took it. Almost instantly he was asleep.
