A/N: Yes well, I'm back. Again. And Chapter Five is coming with me! Hehe If this chapter seems whacky please forgive me, I'm running fever but I just feel the need to write right now so here I am. The REAL A/N will be after the chapter, kk?

Also, please, please, for ff.net users out there, can you tell me how to make my damn italics work? ::glares at them:: and my bold. I can't...But anyways, enough of my rambling and on to the chapter!

Disclaimer: I do not own Harry Potter, Sirius Black, anything. I've given up on trying to own Cat, she simply resides in my mind, and Jay is her own. And we all love her! Flea is also mine...he's at my feet right now. Lol But the story its self is mine. You steal, I kill.

A Knight in Tarnished Armor

Sirius winced as he put his foot down on a step and it sent out a loud squeak. He stopped moving, holding his breath. When Cat didn't come out of her room or yell at him (She tended to sleep till noon and hated to woken up before then.) he let his breath out with a whoosh and took a step forward. When he reached the bottom of the steps he sighed and silently made his way into the kitchen, where a fire burned. He grabbed a canister off the mantle and threw some Floo powder into the fire, turning it a bright green. He was about to step into it when a little dog threw its self on to his foot, looking up at him and whining. Sirius looked at it oddly and tried to shake it off but it kept jumping up and down and whining, apparently it knew what Sirius was doing and wanted to go with him. Sirius simply shrugged and bent to pick up the dog.

"Eh, get your tongue out of my ear." He growled as the dog climbed up his chest and flung its self over his shoulder, licking his ear and neck. The dog simply wiggled harder and gave a small bark. Sirius shook his head and stepped into the flames of the fire. "Jaylynn's!" With that he was sent, with the feeling of spinning, into the hearth of Jay's house. He stepped out, dusted of his robes and the dog (who was now wiggling and giving little whimpers of excitement.) then placed the hairy little thing on the floor.

"You know where we're at, huh?" The dog jumped up on its back feet and gave a small, playful growl and began to dance around his feet. "So where's Jay's room, you know?" The dog took off running and Sirius fallowed. He was lead into the upper part of the house, and into a plushy decorated bedroom where Jay was sprawled out on the bed.

"Good boy." The dog howled and jumped onto the bed, licking Jay's face. She muttered something and pushed it down, pulling the covers over her head. Sirius smirked and walked to the bed, where the dog was now trying to pull the covers off Jay. He reached out and pulled them down, and the dog jumped onto Jay's chest, and began chewing on her nose.

"FLEA GET OFF!" Sirius chuckled and flung himself onto the bed, causing Jay to scream and bolt upright.

"Morning, sunshine!" Jay grabbed a pillow and began to beat him with it, the dog, Flea as Jay had called, began to bark howl jumping on them and trying to bite the pillow.

"What the HELL are you doing, Sirius!? Trying to scare me half to death! Jesus Christ!" Jay screamed as she hit the laughing Sirius with the pillow.

"But I thought you loved me, Jay!" He yelled puckering his lips. Jay snorted and pulled the covers over her head where a muffled "In your bloody dreams!"

When Jay finely came out from under the covers for air, Sirius stood up, crossing his arms across his chest as he watched her yawn and stretch.

"What do you want, Sirius?" Jay asked around a large yawn as she got out of bed. Sirius' face turned dark and he pulled the letter from Daemon from his pocket.

"Daemon sent Cat a letter." Jay was in the process of trying to get her slipper away from Flea but she stopped moving when she heard Daemon's name. Her eyes flashed and stood up, her eyes flashing.

"He WHAT!?" Sirius handed Jay the letter, which simply said, "I'm coming for you, Callie." Jay took in the words, and turned a bright red, her fist crumpling the letter. "That stupid son of a BITCH!"

"My thoughts exactly." Jay still had a murders look on her face, but she looked at Sirius and put her hands on her hips.

"How do you know about Daemon?"

"Cat told me last night when she got the letter. She also told me about Alex." Jay fell on to her bed, pulling her legs up under her. Flea jumped into her lap, and she began to pet him. Sirius settled into a chair, and watched Jay as she began cursing Daemon loudly. A few of the things she said even made Sirius' ears turn red.

"I am going to rip him apart about shove his dick down his throat!" Jay finished swinging her arms. Flea had retreated to the corner of the bed and was looking at Jay like she was something from a different planet.

"Are you done?" Sirius asked from his corner. Jay nodded and Sirius stood.

"I thought you should know, seeing as you and Cat are all but attached at the hip." Jay smiled faintly and nodded, stand up and grabbing her robe from the floor.

"Thanks, Sirius." He turned to leave but Jay stopped him. "Stay right here, I'm going to go get dressed, then I'm going back with you." Jay started for her bathroom but it was Sirius' turn to stop her.

"Why did Daemon call Cat Callie?" Jay turned to him and smirked.

"You don't know Cat's real name?" Sirius shook his head. "Its Callista. Hardly anyone use's it."

"How do you Cat from Callista?" Jay stopped and stared at him. Then shrugged.

"Have to ask Cat that one."



Sirius and Jay (who was now holding Flea) stepped out Cat's fire and into the kitchen. Flea jumped from Jay's arms and ran into the living room, barking joyfully.

"Kitty, I'm here!" Jay yelled fallowing Flea. They entered the living room to the sight of a small black cat, more like a kitten, batting at Flea. Sirius arched his eyebrow and shook his head, wondering how the hell those animals had gotten into the house. The cat screeched and jumped off the sofa, and with a loud pop, turned into Cat.

"Jay, I'm glad you're here." Jay rushed forward and embraced Cat, who simply broke down in sobs that Sirius simply hadn't seen coming. He stood there awkwardly while Jay smoothed Cat's hair and told her it would be okay, that if Daemon even thought of coming near her he'd up a burning pile of ashes. Cat wiped her eyes and the two girls sat down on the sofa.

"Look, Cat. Flea's here, he'll protect you!" Cat smiled watery and buried her face Flea's warm side.

"Cat, if I may...How did that dog get in here?" Cat looked at Sirius and laughed.

"He comes and goes as he wants. He's my baby. He came with Jay the day she met you-"

"ATTACKED me!" Jay glared and threw a pillow at him.

"But after he got hit with that spell, I'm guessing he decided to clear out for a while longer." Sirius flopped into a chair, and the three (four if you count Flea) sat there for a good hour, not talking, just waiting. Cat began to randomly set things on fire while Jay put them out, and Sirius was about to go out of his head with worry. Then it happened. A knock on the door. Jay jumped up, Cat shrunk into the sofa with a soft whimper, and Sirius turned into the large back dog that had given him the nickname of Padfoot.

"Its okay Cat...If its him, we'll get him." Cat nodded and stood on shaking feet; Sirius (Or shall we say Padfoot?) moved beside her and nudged her hand with his head. Jay opened the door and was greeted with the sight of startlingly handsome man. A man who, though handsome, lived up to his name as Daemon. Dark black was swept back from his face, and perking blue eyes look out from a chiseled face. Jay nearly threw up on his shoes.

"What the HELL do you want, Daemon?" he smiled slowly, his eyes as cold as ice.

"Hello, Jay. Lovely to see you again." Sirius growled and with the POP turned back into himself. He moved in front of Cat, and glared daggers at Daemon, who looked tried to look calm, but had a slight look of panic at the sight of a dog turning into a man.

"Who's that, Callie? Been fucking around on me? You stupid whore, how-" They all three moved at once. Jay's hand went to her wand, and pointed it at his throat, Cat grabbed her own, and Sirius didn't even bother with his. He simply lunged forward, grabbed Daemon by his neck, pulled him into the house, and threw him against the wall, his grip never leaving.

"What did you just say to her?" It was spoken in a deadly calm and quiet voice, and Daemon choked. "I SAID, what did you just say to her?" Sirius threw him in the floor, pulling out his wand. Cat looked more then a little shocked, but she moved forward with Jay, and they formed a simi-circle around Daemon.

"Do you remember the last time we met, Daemon? Wasn't pretty, was it? I'm going to get a hell of a lot madder, if you don't leave my Cat alone." Jay stated glaring. Daemon moved fast, grabbing Cat, and slapping her across the face. Sirius let out a cry of rage, and Jay could do nothing more then move back when he jumped on him.

Cat could feel the walls closing in on her as his hand connected with her face, and she felt the part of her that she had worked so hard to have back slipping into the corners of her soul. She struggled for a moment, and then went lax, tears streaming down her face. Sirius grabbed Daemon, and punched him and she felt Jay pulling her up.

There was a struggle, but Sirius soon had Daemon pinned down, though he was sporting blooming bruise on the side of his head.

"You bloody piece of shit, don't ever touch her again!" He slammed Daemon's head into the floor, and then pulled him to his feet. "Don't ever come near Cat again, or I'll kill you." He threw him out the open door and glared, at him. "And her name isn't Callie. Its Cat." With that he slammed the door closed, and turned towards Jay and Cat. He walked to them, stopping when he stood in front of Cat. His hand reached up and he touched the side of her face that would soon be a dark bruise. Cat let out a harsh sob and threw herself into his arms, and Jay backed away. She knew she'd better leave, or she'd witness something she really didn't want too.

"I'm sorry he hit you." Sirius grounded out. Cat shook her head and simply clung to him tighter. He buried his face in her hair, and smoothed his hands up and down her back. That was the last thing Jay saw before she Apparated home, and she smiled, certain that love was in the air.
