Woo Hoo! Another chapter!
Now, I know some of you have been asking me not to kill Remus...so you may not like this chapter... Heh heh heh
Viewers: Noooooo!!! *Throws Rocks and Big blocks of Silver at Reaper*
Reaper: No no no! You've got it all WRONG! Well, maybe not too wrong but he's not going to die... yet.
Birdie: Do you have a death wish or something Reaper?
Reaper: Hey, if they kill me they won't get to hear the end of the story!
Birdie: Lucky them, anyway, they'll just make up their own ending, and it will probably be better than yours.
Reaper: That's true... oh well *sigh* on with the next grolisuo chapter
Birdie: Grolisuo?
Reaper: Private joke.
Birdie: Oh wait... not the amulets of power!?
Reaper: Yes the amulets of power, now read the chapter.

Chapter 10 or 12: Fate Clouded
****************************
"Peter" The angry hiss was barely audible.
"It can't be Sirius," said Remus weakly, clinging to his friend to for comfort "What would he be doing here anyway"
Just as Sirius was shaking his head, in disbelief or in confusion, a drawling voice broke the stunned silence that had fallen
"Wouldn't you like to know, Hee hee hee"
The rest of the group turned around. The rat began to change.
Too late, Daniel identified the trap.
"It's a trap!" he yelled to the others, trying to stand in front of the children.
"TRAITOR!" Snarled Will, sounding more wolf than human,
CRACK!
A cloaked figure apparated in to the hall
CRACK!
Another one appeared behind them.
CRACK! CRACK! CRACK!
The room was slowly filling with Death eaters. The group huddled closer together, not wanting to believe their predicament.
/No.../ He thought desperately /we were so close, how could I not have seen.../
Pettigrew was now fully transformed, and smirking as best he could (which wasn't very good)
There was no sound when He apparated in to the room. He just appeared.
"Voldemort" Said Moody, trying not to sound scared
/WHAT?!/ Remus was beginning to panic /Why is he here? What's going on? What was the point of the last few weeks?!!!/ Questions buzzed around his head and although he was now out of that silver cell, he was beginning to get another migraine with all the confusion.
It just made no sense, was this just another plot of Voldemorts? What was going on here?
"Who?" Asked E.B and Brittany simultaneously. Being muggles, they hadn't the foggiest who this was and neither did Aaron, Joe, Adam or Jenkin
Voldemort smiled evilly
The expression was mirrored by the newly found traitor Theodosius.
********************************
______________________________________
"So why did you think it was me?" he asked, trying to be casual.
Sirius sighed, running his hand through his hair, this was going to be hard. Poor Remus.
/How could we ever of.../
"I know what you're thinking Moony, but it's not true" He tried desperately "It wasn't because of you being a werewolf, really it wasn't, James and I at least knew better than that"
Remus took a deep breath, he was being very patient, Sirius probably would've blown up in his position.
Sirius looked back towards the house, subconsciously eyeing the possible exits.
"Umm, well we knew it wasn't me..." he said lamely, Remus gave him a look that was almost half amused.
"And it wasn't James... and we figured that Peter was... well too...umm weak and pathetic really" he looked down, slightly embarrassed "You must have hated me, all these years"
Remus turned around and smiled "Not really" He said cheerfully.
Sirius stared at him "You don't have to lie-"
"I'm not," Said Remus waving his hand "I didn't hate you, call me crazy but there are people I just can't hate,"
"What do you mean?"
"You and James and Peter accepted me where others would've turned me away, it's not easy to hate people when you're in my position"
"Peter"
"I don't hate him either Sirius, I told you, I find it very hard to hate people"
"Snape?"
Remus laughed, "Not even when we were young"
"In the good ole' days" Said Sirius in an old lady voice
"Not even my father, or Romulus..." he continued.
Sirius turned around and gave him a strange look, even Snape hated Romulus, Hell, his mother probably hated him. Sirius definitely hated him, too bad he wasn't a death eater and they couldn't just go and kill him.
"Is there anyone you do hate?"
"Not that I can think of offhand, but I'm sure I hate someone... oh wait! Umbridge!" He exclaimed
Sirius groaned, not another Umbridge rant! But Remus was already off, yelling about the injustices of dear old Dolores.
"O.k. o.k.!!!" He moaned, covering his ears "I just couldn't believe you didn't hate anyone, especially Peter"
"Maybe I am just a dark creature..." Remus said uncertainly
"Oh Remus" He moaned, seeing his friend hadn't changed a bit "I see that not having our little self esteem discussions has caused you to go back to the 'I am evil' bull"
"Sirius..."
"No no, we have twelve years of pep talk to catch up on..."

****************************
"What do you want with us" Asked Moody
Voldemort narrowed his eyes "Who said that this trap was set for you?"
The only sound after that was Mary, who had started sobbing uncontrollably. Adam patted her shoulder awkwardly, still clueless to the extremities of the situation. Mary responded by throwing her arms around him.
"This wasn't a plot to get Lupin?" Asked Snape suspiciously
Voldemort glared at Remus, who couldn't help but shrink back a bit, and gave a small chuckle. "Lupin? Ah yes, one of your old friends I believe, Wormtail. No Severus, although the fact that several of Dumbledore's spies happen to be here as a result of our friends lycanthropy, is very convenient, this plot actually had nothing to do with any of you"
WHAT?
Did Voldemort just not have anything better to do than to come up with random plots?
"This was no random plot" (Remus shuddered) "This was organised to target one person" He glared intensively at the group, eyes coming to rest at the back.
He raised his hand slowly.
And pointed a bony finger at Ros.
Everyone swivelled around to stare at Ros, who was looking uncomfortably nervous. It was particularly uncomfortable seeing as Ros usually showed no more emotion then a chicken tikka sandwich (A/N: Mmmmm...)
Voldemort suddenly became angry
"Anagrams! You foolish woman, did you think you could fool me with one of my own tricks?!" He strode up to her with a look of utter loathing on his ugly face
"But you never were that imaginative were you, 'Ros'" He placed a heavy sneer on that last word
Ros answered back slightly calmer than expected
"What do you mean Tom?" She asked
Voldemort sneered, "Tom Marvalo Riddle, I am Lord Voldemort! You didn't see that?" he yelled.
Ros didn't answer.
By this point Remus was way to stressed to even begin to figure out what the hell Voldemort was talking about. He'd never see Ophelia or his mother again.
He sighed inwardly. Ophelia...
Wait...
Ophelia...
Rosalind...... Uranus...... astronomy ....... anagrams......werewolves......
It was a bolt from the blue; he suddenly understood what people meant when they said that to find the answer you just had to NOT think about it.
And if he was right there was only one question left.
"Ros" he said quietly. Both she and Voldemort turned to look at him.
"Yes..." She whispered
"Do you spell your name RosaLYNN, or RosaLIND?"
She smiled mysteriously. "Latter"
Sirius gave him the 'Uhhh, Remus have you finally lost you marbles?' look
He countered with the 'Sirius, I know what I'm doing so trust me on this one' look
"Have you finally lost your marbles Remus?" Shrieked Pettigrew "I don't think-"
"SILENCE WORMTAIL" yelled Voldemort; he then went back to his calm face "You shouldn't pick on people just because they're smarter than you Wormtail..." He chuckled, turning to Remus "How did you know..."
"A- anagrams" He stuttered "And astronomy, the moons"
"The moons?" Voldemort asked, having obviously not paid attention to astronomy when he was at Hogwarts
"The moons of Uranus" He explained "Rosalind, Miranda, Bianca..." He trailed off
"Oh no..." said Moody, suddenly realising the situation
"I don't understand..." said Sirius, annoyed that he didn't know what was going on and Remus did.
Voldemort rolled his eyes, waved his wand, and the words 'TOM MARVALO RIDDLE' appeared before them, then rearranged themselves to say 'I AM LORD VOLDEMORT'
He waved his wand again and the words 'ROSALIND BULLMAN' appeared.
Then they too rearranged themselves.
And now they said 'MIRANDA. B. L. LLUNOS'
"Miranda Llunos!" Gasped Snape, Sirius shook his head incredulously
The other people, however didn't seem to know what was going on, and now the muggles were more confused than ever.
"Umm excuse me, yes," said E.B
Voldemort glared at the blond
"Yeah, Hi..." She said "Umm, excuse for sounding ignorant, but who are you, exactly"
"I am lord Voldemort," he said patiently
"WHAT!" she yelled "No way! It can't be Voldemort!" she turned to Brittany "Who the hell's Voldemort?" She hissed
"Haven't the foggiest..." Said Brittany
Voldemort rolled his eyes and motioned for Flack and Meddle to grab Remus, which they did, roughly.
Sirius tried to hold on to his friend, but Remus was too weak from days of mistreatment to hang on long, and the brain-dead duo ripped him away relatively easily, and none too gently either.
"Well, well, well, Remus Lupin," He said slimily "Or do you only answer to 'Moony' now days?"
Girlish giggles from the death eaters (Especially Pettigrew) filled the air
"Now Lupin, we wouldn't want to... delay, your execution..."
Sirius tensed up. Remus shrank back.
Voldemort smirked and beckoned to Lucius Malfoy, who slithered over carrying an object that Remus couldn't quite make out. Voldemort paused, then walked over to Remus, stopping just in front of him.
Remus stared at the dirty floor, not daring to look in to the ominous eyes of the snake-like enemy.
Voldemort held up the object to the light, and Remus' heart sank
"Do you know what this is?" He asked coldly
Remus didn't answer; he knew he was going to die. If only the others could somehow get out and tell Dumbledore that Miranda Llunos was still alive, and hadn't been killed by a werewolf eighteen years ago.
Not that that would help too much, but-
"Ooooh! I know!" Brittany was squealing, still oblivious to the danger they were in "Ooooh! Pick me! Pick me!"
Voldemort turned around "Yeeeees..."
Brittany spoke very slowly, as if speaking to a gym teacher "It's.....a.....Gun....."
"Yes" Said Voldemort, Raising it "Complete with silver bullets, and ready to be used"
Remus waited for the bang...
But it never came.
Instead, something so utterly stupid happened, that had he not been restrained, Remus would've pinched himself to make sure he wasn't just in a weird dream.
There was a CRACK! when a very drunk Mundungus Fletcher apparated into the room, knocking Voldemort in to Pettigrew.
"Oy Tonkshhhhh" he drawled "Arthur 'as sum infa'mashun 'at VOLDEMOR' may be 'eddin your way...."
Sirius used the distraction to punch the nearest death eater into unconsciousness. Angrily, he turned to Mundungus.
"You don't say!?" He yelled
Mundungus blinked and then noticed Voldemort
"Wha- whoooooooaaaaaaahhhhhhh." he then promptly passed out.
The rest of the order were using their wands to stun the death eaters, or in the case of the unarmed werewolves, punching their lights out.
The anger on Voldemorts face, was so intense that Remus had to refrain from looking anywhere near him in order to maintain his sanity.
Finally Voldemort decided it was time for his grand exit, and reluctantly called out "RETREAT" Before vanishing in to thin air, swiftly followed by Theo and Malfoy.
Flack and Meddle threw him onto the floor and disapparated to the tune of the fat lady's song.
Remus pulled himself up and surveyed the action.
The order seemed to have the upper hand in the battle, he looked round to see if Pettigrew had disapparated,
And was met with a BANG! As Wormtail shot him.
"REMUS" Screamed Sirius
~~-But in the end, you will be living in shadow no longer~~
Oh.
"REMUS!"
But Remus could no longer hear him
********************************
Ooooh! Who is Miranda B. L. Llunos?
Yay! Now guys I know I usually moan about my personal problems that you guys really don't want to hear about, but I have five minutes before my mum forcefully tears me from the computer, and I still have to actually upload the chapter 'n' stuff so...
