Well, I just decided to continue this one since I have no real funny
stories yet. I thought I'd try my hand at it. Hmmm, It's so much harder to
put jokes and actions on paper rather than in real words.
Sirius Black and ????- Chapter 2
"Reggie! Sue! It's been ages!" Kathy stepped out of the car and hugged her sister and brother-in-law. Sleepily Sirius and Humurus stepped out. With a huge yawn Sirius stretched his arms over his head and was scooped up by his Uncle. After his nephew a spine-crushing hug he set him back down and asked, "So, you little Marauder, all set for the World Cup?" Sirius grinned at his uncle's teasing and nodded eagerly.
"I can't wait! It's going to be a great match!"
"With both England and Germany playing it most certainly will be." His uncle turned and hugged Humurus. Sirius turned to his aunt and got the same hug, only less painful.
"It's wonderful to see you again Sirius. You've grown so much!" Sue exclaimed. Sirius grinned and soon there was a noise from inside the house. His younger cousin Luke was bawling and the house lights were being turned on as Michael and Lucy woke up.
"Oh dear. I'm sorry Sue, I didn't mean to wake up the whole house. We meant to get in earlier, but we were delayed in Newcastle."
"We would have been earlier if we had used a Portkey, but mom wanted to drive." Humurus said disgruntedly. Sirius glared at his brother for being such a stick-in-the-mud.
"Mom wanted to see the landscape and anyway driving is much nicer than traveling a long distance in a Portkey." Sirius shot back angrily.
"Boys! Please! I really am sorry Sue." His mother apologised as the front door flew open spilling a pool of light onto the porch.
"Don't worry Kathy. Mike and Lucy would be furious with me if I didn't wake them up to say 'hi' anyway". Sirius looked into the doorway and saw his cousins. Luke was only a baby, a few months old. Lucy had just turned eleven so she would be starting at Hogwarts in Septemeber. Mike was the same age as Sirius and Humurus, fifteen. Mike was Humurus' best friend at Hogwarts and they both thought Sirius and his friends were "extremely childish". Mike nodded a hello to Sirius before moving towards Humurus. Lucy smiled shyly at him and Sirius smiled back. Uncle Reggie and Sirius brought in their suitcases, all the while talking about the Quidditch World Cup.
"Oh, yeah. England's got this thing in the bag. We have an excellent Seeker and terrific Chaser's. Now Germany is going to be hard to beat, there's no denying it, but we'll get the Snitch in the end, along with enough points to send those Germans home disappointed." Reggie told him proudly. Sirius agreed fully with his uncle and hoped that England would be victorious.
Mike, Sirius and Humurus had to share a room while Kathy stayed in the guest bedroom. As Sirius listened to Humurus and Mike droning on about Animagi and boring stuff to do with school, he thought about his three best friends and wondered if they were counting the days, hours, minutes, and even seconds as he was. Smiling to himself Sirius realized that they most certainly were. As he drifted off to sleep, Sirius pictured himself throwing the Quaffle with Beernot, one of England's best Chaser's, with James diving for the Snitch and seeing Peter and Remus cheering for them in the stands...
Hmmm, the best is still to come (the Quidditch match I mean, and the funny stuff- oh wait, don't let me say too much!)
