Hours later a howling awoke Sam with a start; blinking a few times Sam tried to get his bearings. He shot a glance over to his brother's tent and began to panic when he saw the empty sleeping bag and the forgotten bear. Sam grumbling crawled out of his sleeping bag and out of his tent. To his horror however the moment he stepped outside he was completely bathed in moonlight. Dashing back to his tent Sam grabbed his lunar chart it was the night of the full moon. Sam threw his jacket on and dashed down the hill yelling for his brother. Sam stopped for a moment to catch his breath he shone his flashlight around hurriedly. Suddenly Sam heard a terrified scream. It was Remus.

"SAM HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Remus's scream shouted.

Sam took off running towards the screams at a clearing the scene before him terrified the 11 year old. A large wolf undoubtedly a werewolf had Remus cornered against a rock it lunged at his terrified brother.

"Remus transform now! Now!" Sam shouted Remus who had tears streaming down his face looked like he was trying to but was so scared he couldn't. So Sam knew he had to. There was a *pop* and where Sam was there was a smaller wolf. He dove at the large wolf knocking it away from Remus he bite the wolf on the scruff and growled for it to leave his brother alone. The wolf knocked Sam away with his paw and advanced on Remus. Sam once again lunged at the wolf and was once again thrown to the ground with a swift push. Sam felt his ankle twist as he fell and weakly stood up again he wasn't going to loose his brother. The wolf lunged at Remus teeth bared. Remus put his arm up to protect himself and the wolf clamped down on Remus's shoulder. Sam ignored the pain in his ankle and dove at the wolf once again this time getting a good piece of the wolf's side. It growled at Sam and knocked him hard against a tree Sam felt himself loosing consciousness but he used his last bit of strength to hold onto it, Sam knew that if he lost consciousness he'd instantly return to human and give the werewolf a reason to attack them further. Sam mustered his strength and weakly walked over to Remus and stood in front of his brother not letting the wolf anywhere near him. The wolf stared Sam right in the eyes before finally turning around and running back into the forest. Sam sighed with relief. There was another faint *pop* and Sam was human again he limped over to Remus who lay unconscious his shoulder bleeding. "Rem?" Sam said shaking the boy "Remy can you hear me?" Shallow breaths told Sam that his brother was still alive.

Sam carried Remus back to the campsite wrapping Remus who had begun shaking with chills in the sleeping bags with his bear Sam carried his brother all the way down the hill and through the forest towards home. Sunlight was just beginning to peek over the hills when Sam finally reached home.

"Mum!!" He yelled weakly "come quick!"

Alice followed by Charles came running out of the house; Sam laid Remus on the ground as he felt himself losing consciousness.

"Sam what happened?!" Charles asked hurriedly

"We…. where…attacked…we…we…were…werewolf……" and with that Sam fainted.
