EPILOGUE
Remus was allowed to stay at Hogwarts and, as he had
warned Lessah, he vanished for the last few days before exams.
They saw each other in class and at meal times, but Remus seemed
to have ceased to exists any other time. Exams passed and Remus
suddenly came back to existence, proud of his exceptionally high
marks. Gryffindor did not win the house cup that year, all points
seemed to have gone to Slytherin. It was a disappointing loss
made worse by the gloating of Severus Snape.
On the train ride home, Sirius and James plotted how best to humiliate Snape, while Peter slept and Lily drifted about the train socializing. Remus and Lessah sat quietly and made plans to see each other over the summer. Remus promised to spend her first full moon with her, even if he had to sneak out of his house to do so. The train pulled into the station at Platform 9 and 3/4. Just as Severus Snape was stepping off the train there was a loud bang and a puff of smoke. When the smoke cleared, Snape was wear a set of bright pink robes and the most sour looking face imaginable. Sirius patted him on the back and walked away laughing, followed by James, Remus, Lily and Lessah.
"Oh, there's my mum," Remus said, pointing to a older looking witch standing near the wall. "Come on, I want you to meet her."
Lessah followed Remus through the crowd. Remus' mother was dressed in long crimson robes. Her sandy brown hair, flecked with grey, was worn in a tight bun. Her face was care worn, like she had seen a lot of stress and pain in her life. She hugged Remus and kissed him on the cheek.
"Mum, I want you to meet some one. This is Lessah Ismorah, I wrote to you about her."
"Ah, of course! Remus has told me so much about you, young lady. It's nice to meet you at last."
"Thank you, Mrs. Lupin. I really like your son," Lessah said with a smile.
"Oi, Lessah!" a voice shouted.
Remus and Lessah turned in the direction of the voice. Lessah smiled and grabbed Remus by the arm.
"You have to come meet my brother Saber. He's visiting from the states, he's here to pick me up."
Lessah dragged Remus over to where her brother was, before Remus could object. Saber Ismorah was a tallish mad with pale skin. He and Lessah looked like they could have been twins. Saber had long black and white hair tied back in a ponytail, which reminded Remus of Sirius. He was wearing a pair of round shades and long black leather robes. Beneath his robes, clearly visible, were a pair of torn jeans and a white t-shirt with a marijuana leaf printed on it. He looked very laid back.
"Uh, Saber, this is my boyfriend Remus Lupin." Lessah said.
"Hello," Remus said, extending his hand.
"Cool," Saber said smoothly, shaking Remus hand. "You're the wild one with the nasty bite? Oh, don't wig out man, Lessah tells me everything."
"Oh Saber, you know how to scare a guy. Remus, it's alright. Saber has been keeping my secrets for me since I was old enough to have them." Lessah asked.
"Okay... I just wasn't prepared for that," Remus said, he had been panicked by Sabers statement.
"Come one, Lessah, Mom's waiting for us," Saber said. "And I need a joint."
Saber walked off toward the barrier that separated the wizard world from the Muggle world. Remus and Lessah said their final goodbyes. Just before Lessah ran off she kissed Remus on the lips. Remus smiled, blushing slightly, and waved good bye.
It was going to be a good summer.
