A/N I can't write Quidditch matches.
Ravenclaw vs. Gryffindor
"So team, first match of the season, we can do this."
Harry was feeling very nervous. This was the first match he had ever been in as captain. Every one was watching him waiting for him to mess up, well at least that's what he thought.
"I give you Spinnet, Bell, Johnson, Johnson, Weasley, Weasley and Potter. Incidentally the two Johnsons are not related."
The Ravenclaws, Smith, Mee, Sleap, Barden, Basset, Sutton and Chang.
Chang and Potter are both seekers and are both captains of their teams. Is there a match here? People have however informed me that-"
"Jordan this is not a match making service."
"Right Professor. Johnson has the ball, passes it to Bell and she scores. Yes, Barden needs to work harder to beat Gryffindor."
"If you can't give an unbiased commentary then we'll have to get rid of you."
"Sorry Professor."
Chang was yet again tailing Harry instead of looking for the snitch. Harry saw a glint off gold and realised it was just Alicia's watch, or was it. Harry zoomed down and caught the Snitch. He looked behind him and was suddenly in a bone-crushing hug. "You won't win next time, if you kill the captain and the seeker, let go of me."
Cho came over to him, "That was a great dive well done."
"Thanks."
"Harry and"
"Fred, if you don't shut up now, I will personally wake you up at 4am and make you do sit ups until seven, I will then put a tickling charm on you and I won't take it off. Bye Cho."
"Harry and Cho sitting in a tree."
"Nicola if you even dare."
"Sorry."
"Hurry up we has to change then go and see Snuffles."
*********************************************************************
"Harry hurry up."
"I'm ready I'm just waiting for Nicola."
"Sorry, I'm ready now. So where are we meeting him?"
"We'll just walk up until he finds us." Answered Hermione
"Harry."
"Yeah"
"Is Snuffles a big black shaggy dog?"
"Yeah."
Harry spun around and looked behind him. "He's not there."
"I know. We'd better start walking up."
"Oh no it's professor Lupin." Groaned Harry
"Hi sir." Shouted Nicola, waking at him
"Have I met you? Hello Ron, Hermione, Harry. Are you Nicola?" asked Lupin
"Of course I'm Nicola, you were teaching me last lesson yesterday and have been for the past 3 months." Replied Nicola, glaring at Lupin
"Nicola." Muttered Harry
"What?" demanded Nicola.
"That's Remus." Harry stated. Nicola went red
"I'm guessing you've met my brother then?"
"Yep."
"Come on, we have to go see Sirius."
Just then Professor Lupin came. (Are you confused yet?)
"Remus what are you doing here?"
"I came to see Albus. But I ran into this lot and started chatting about the lessons we used to have." He answered
"But Nicola wasn't in your class." Replied Romulus as if it was the most obvious thing in the world.
"She picks things up quickly. We have to go now. Talk to you later, bye."
Romulus stood there looking startled.
"We better go to the Gryffindor common room, get the invisibility cloak and go meet Sirius in the shrieking shack." Said Harry
"I have to go see Dumbledore. Unfortunately my brother is very nosy and will most probably check up on me."
"Plus he can check to see if you met Dumbledore by reading his mind." Muttered Hermione darkly
"What are you talking about?" questioned Harry and Hermione.
"He can't read Dumbledore's mind as Dumbledore's magic is more powerful and he can't read mine as I'm using a charm to stop him, I should teach you that."
Remus left.
"Hermione how did you know that Romulus can read minds?"
"Sirius and Remus told me."
"Why didn't they tell us?"
"I wrote to them when he knew who Snuffles was. They told us to report any thing strange to them and as you, Harry didn't I took it upon my self to do it for you. I never told you because you never wrote a letter to Sirius. I was going to tell you what they told me when you finally decided to write to them."
"But we've told each other every thing since first year." (He forgot about third year.)
"Well this is fifth year. You may not have noticed but there have been at least one death a month and I'm helping them to connect them. I'm just being more responsible." Glared Hermione.
"You haven't been like this since 2nd year when we were making the poly juice potion. And that was only because all those muggle borns were being petrified."
"Yes but this time muggles are being killed as well. At least magi people can fight the muggles don't stand a chance. Blue bell. Harry, Ron get the cloak. Nicola and I will wait, open the portrait hole for you, then we'll slip under it and see Snuffles."
Five minutes later Harry and co. were walking down to the Whomping willow. They picked up a twig touched the knot on the tree trunk and climbed into the hole.
"So how long does it take to get from here to the shrieking shack?"
"Five, ten minutes."
They walked up to the door and opened it.
"Who's there?"
"It's us."
While doing this they took of the cloak.
"This is Nicola."
"Hi. Nice to meet you."
"So you're the famous mass murderer Sirius Black."
Sirius looked at Harry.
"It was a joke. Harry said you were the biggest prankster of your time with James. This Azkaban and Voldemort thing really must of hit you hard."
"Right. Any way the reason I came here, apart from seeing Harry was to tell you about Argus Filch." Said Sirius hastily
"He's dead."
"I know. I'm here to tell you why he's dead." Said Sirius matter of factly
"They said it was because he refused to let old voldie into the castle."
"That's what Albus told us, and Nicola people will frown on you if you speak of his name like that people can't even call him Voldemort yet. People would probably think that you're a death eater or something." Said Remus darkly
"I get the point Remus. We didn't worry as much about it at Salem, Voldemort really wasn't as big there as he is over here."
"Any way. Filch did try to stop Voldemort from getting into the castle. Ron, Hermione stop flinching. Filch is as you know a squib. ("I didn't know that why didn't you tell me?") This gives Voldemort a reason to kill Filch but it goes much deeper then that. All of Filch's family were Aurors; he would have been one if he weren't a squib. His family were a very strong wizarding family. Voldemort wanted to get rid of the last remaining heir of Helga Hufflepuff."
"He was a descendant of Helga Hufflepuff?"
"Yep. So now he only has to kill Gryffindor's heir and he'll be the last one left."
"Who is Gryffindor's heir?"
"Umm I have absolutely no idea."
"And I'm a monkeys uncle."
"That was a great Quidditch match." Said Remus changing the subject, while Nicola gave him a questioning look.
