Sirius' POV

For a few months now, I have heard of rumors about weird things going on in Hogwarts. But I don't know what, and that's my problem. I got worried about Harry and his friends that I decided to come over for a little visit.

So there I went in my animagus form, this big, black dog, and walked towards Dumbledore's office. I was observing as much as I can when suddenly I heard a group of students laughing from down the hallway. Two of the voices sounded so familiar, so I looked to see who it was. It turned out that it was Ron and Hermione.

No. Scratch that.

It was Ron and Hermione, with Draco Malfoy and another girl with almost-blonde hair. Ron and Hermione hanging out with that girl would have been normal, but to go with Draco MALFOY of all people! That was outrageous!

I quietly sneaked up on them and followed their every move. It amazed me how much these three were acting as if they were old friends… When they reached the Great Hall, which by the way surprised the hell out of me, they sat down in the same table.
Did you get that? They sat down at the same table!

And I was like… "What is he doing there?" I mean, shouldn't they have separated or something by now? After all, Gryffindors don't sit with Slytherins, do they? Then I noticed something. The students weren't seated with their housemates at all, because if that is the case… then why is Ginny, who I know for a fact is Ron's sister and is a Gryffindor, sitting a table away from them. And Colin Creevey, the one who Harry told me annoys him with his camera. What the hell is going on?
Then a bemused laugh interrupted my thoughts, "Snuffles, come on! Let's go to my room."
I turned around and saw my godson smiling down at me as if nothing is wrong in the world. He then led me to a place near the dungeons and escorted me into a room similar to Dumbledore's.

"You can change back now, Sirius," Harry said, which I, with great relief, complied to.
"Harry, what is going on in Hogwarts?" Was the first words that came out of my mouth after I have become human once again.

Harry just chuckled before explaining what has transpired a few months back. He told me of the Hogwarts Four, told me of his secret identity as Merlin, told me of the curse used on him and his wife Ivy, told me of everything that has happened in Hogwarts since, mostly with his classes.

And while he was explaining all this, my mouth was slowly dropping to the ground. I couldn't believe what I was hearing. It sounded all too surreal, yet as he explained more, it became so clear. But who could blame me for being shocked, huh? Tell me.

I am the godfather of a boy who is thousands of years older than I.

When the initial shock was over, he gave me a gold chain to put on my neck. He said that when I transform to a dog, it would also transform to look like a dog chain. When I am in trouble, he said that all I have to do is think of it and help will come – whether it be just a transportation need or a fighting an evil man need.

We talked a little bit more after that, though all our topics was of merrier ones. I stayed for the night and slept on his couch.
When I woke up the next morning, I found a message from him saying that he was going to Hogsmeade with Ron, Hermione, and all the other seventh years. So I followed him, wanting to see just how close the Masters, as that's what Harry calls them, have become.

I got there, but what greeted me there was a sight I wasn't expecting to see. In the middle of town, stood a floating stage. And performing there was the Masters. Hermione and two more Hufflepuff girls – I know because it's what is printed in their robes – were playing in the keyboard, while Harry was banging the drums wildly. Two Ravenclaws – one boy and one girl – were playing the guitar, and two Slytherin boys played the base. The lead singers were Draco Malfoy, Lavander Brown, and Ron Weasley. What was more amazing was floating above them was a giggling baby holding a fake wand that 'magiks' a banner that says "THE MASTERS," every five or so minutes.

Many people watched their band play and judging from the big cauldron filled with sickles and galleons, I'd say they were pretty famous. The concert finished an hour or so later. I, then, followed them as ten other people joined them hike the only hill seen in Hogsmeade, the Boundary.

There, they sat down in a cirlce and talked… and talked… and talked… etc., until I was tired of listening. But the lot of them didn't even give mind that the sun was already setting.

"Once, when I was only five," a Hufflepuff girl, who I heard was called Hannah, said, "my mother asked me to set the table. And just for a joke, I didn't put ordinary spoon and forks. Instead, I set it with serving spoons and these tall wooden forks my mother bought in a muggle store."

The girls laughed, but the boys didn't find anything funny, except for Harry – which I think is because of how that stupid Vernon and Petunia treated him when he was left in their care – who also laughed.

Through all the talks, however, there was one thing I was wondering about. The baby in Ron's arms. She was also the one that was floating in the air at their performance. Who was she? I figured I'll just find out soon enough, so I put aside that topic from my head for a while.

After that, Vincent Crabbe made fire in the middle of their circle and suggested that they played Truth or Dare, which brightened up the moods of everyone, *again.*

I decided that everyone was really close and that closeness of the Slytherins and Gryffindors and Ravenclaws and Hufflepuffs were no joke. They were really enjoying each other's company, even with Draco MALFOY. So I left, not wanting to disturb anymore of their day… or night, because the sun had just set when I left.

AN:// Good? Bad? So? Am I getting better? Please tell me what you think… REVIEW! It really matters to me…. THANKS!!!
