Warning: This story does have yaoi in it and if you don't like seeing two
males make love don't read it. Fair enough warning. (Not so important) this
is a-what-if story and my own crazy twist on OotP the 5th book. It's a very
crazy twist.
AN: I don't own Harry Potter or any of the characters that reside within the book. They belong to J. K. Rowling. I only have fun with them. Thanx to all of you who reviewed that is greatly appreciated. It took a long time for me to get this chappie us so I hope it is good.

SWEET CONTROL
Remus had sat in bed for nearly an hour eating his breakfast peacefully when Professor Dumbledore waltzed through the bedroom door with Sirius following swiftly behind him. Remus had to force down a savage snarl when the old, wise wizard walked in. Remus could not help but feel a tight knot form in his stomach and for some odd reason he felt like he was going to through up again like he had been doing for the last month. He saw Dumbledore's eyebrow rise in slight bewilderment and Remus knew for sure that he was assessing him.
Remus would not let the old man out smart him, not by a long shot. Remus new Dumbledore would eventually catch onto what his ulterior motive was and Remus was ever ready to rid himself of that blasted old wizard. "I'm glad to see you are alive and well Remus. I must say, though, that you have taken quite the beating from your captures." Dumbledore said in a hoarse whisper. Remus nodded sadly and hoped it would pass for now.
"May I ask you a few question Remus?" Dumbledore asked politely and Remus felt bile rising up his throat once again. He was about to nod when he slapped a hand over his mouth and a slight gagging noise could be heard. Remus lurched from the warm bed and ran to the adjoining bathroom. Sirius recoiled slightly at the sound of his mate throwing up. Dumbledore on the other hand hummed and smiled his all knowing smile.
Sirius went into the bathroom only to see Remus hunched over the toilet paying homage to the porcelain goddess. Sirius went to his mates shaking sides and rubbed his back softly as Remus retched into the toilet. Remus flinched away when he had felt Sirius' hand rubbing his back but he was sure Sirius didn't notice it. He probably thought it would be due to the vomiting Remus was doing.
After a good 6 minutes Remus pulled away from the toilet clearly shaken, pale and tired. Sirius helped him up and Remus grudgingly aloud it to be done. Sirius helped him back over to the bed and sat him down on it. Sirius then left saying he was going to go get a cold compress, which left Remus alone with Dumbledore.
"Sickness, oh the wonderful things it leads up to." Dumbledore said off handily and Remus looked at him like he had gone mad. What was the old coot talking about, Remus would never know? Dumbledore then turned back to Remus who had remained sitting on the bed, "My dear Remus I'm glad you could make it back to us alive, but I can't help but wonder.. for what reason was it?" Remus sat bolt upright and stared at Dumbledore. Remus didn't think that Dumbledore would say it so soon. Remus had to react faster than he thought he would.
"So you know then?" Remus muttered darkly and Dumbledore shrugged, "Among other things." He replied strangely. Remus cocked an eyebrow at him. Did this man ever make straight sense? "Well then I'm afraid I will have to get you out of the way for a while then, now won't I." Remus growled and stood swiftly. He fought of the slight dizziness that occurred when he stood and glared at Dumbledore. Dumbledore himself just stood there like none of the things he knew really mattered in the least. Remus looked at Dumbledore and smiled wickedly.
"You may be a powerful wizard, professor, but I assure you, you won't be leaving this house anytime soon. Least wise not through the front door anyway." Remus huffed darkly and still Dumbledore did absolutely nothing. "Now, now Remus. I know for a fact that the real you is still somewhere inside your body and I intend to find it, whether you or you master likes it or not." Dumbledore said rather calmly. Remus laughed softly and for some reason Dumbledore shivered.
"You wouldn't hurt me you fool. I'm far too precious to that git Sirius." Remus snapped slightly and Dumbledore shook his head sadly in return, "My dear Remus, you misunderstand me. I do not intend to hurt you in any way. I merely just want to delve into your subconscious mind and root around if you will." Remus, by all means, was slightly alarmed that Dumbledore had no intentions of hurting his very being. "Now hold still Remus. This won't hurt." Dumbledore advanced on the slightly startled werewolf and slowly began to reach out for him, his wand in hand.
Remus pulled back sharply avoiding the wand and Dumbledore all together. He moved out of the way and around Dumbledore who moved effortlessly with him. For his age Dumbledore was still a formidable opponent and Remus had no intention of getting caught in his traps. Remus had expected a confrontation with the wizen old man and for that he had come prepared. Remus flicked his wrist just enough to jiggle lose a small globe in the sleeve of his robe.
He purposely backed himself into a corner, still looking slightly shocked and adding a little fluster to the fact that he cornered himself. Dumbledore didn't notice anything and kept advancing and Remus hoped that it was actually possible to trick the old wizard. In a matter of a minute Dumbledore stood in front of Remus and held up his wand to Remus' forehead. Remus knew that he had only a few seconds to put his plan into effect or Dumbledore would get into his mind.
Remus pulled the small globe from his sleeve and pushed it hard against Dumbledore's chest, over his heart. Remus could hear the beating of his heart through the globe as it became wild. Dumbledore looked at him with slight surprise and Remus smiled in a satisfactory way, "You should know better than to trust me. I am not what you think. I hope you enjoy being locked up in your own mind for a while. I just can't have you interfering with my master's plans." Remus said coolly and Dumbledore's eyes looked down at the globe held to his chest.
"This globe immobilizes your body and allows me to lock you mind inside you. You will become a mindless body. Although you will be able to hear and see things just as if you were functions like normal. Enjoy you rest old man." Remus chuckled and Dumbledore felt his mind pulling in on itself and suddenly he collapsed to the floor.
Remus panted slightly and held back the bile that was threatening to rise in his throat. Now that the old man was easily out of the way he had to stash the body somewhere. The effects of the globe would give him a week to gather what he needed and by all means that was more than enough time for Remus. "Hhmmm that buffoon is returning." Remus muttered as his acutely sensitive hearing picked up Sirius' footsteps on the stairs just down the hall.
Remus leant down and grabbed a hold of Dumbledore's arms and began to drag him over to the bed where he proceeded to push his body under the bed and as far back as he would go. Remus then got out an old blanket and crawled under to throw it over his comatose body. "Enjoy your rest." Was all he said and then crawled back out and back into bed.
Sirius entered a mere minute later and saw Remus reclined comfortably under the blankets. He looked around and saw no sign of Professor Dumbledore, "Where did Dumbledore go?" he asked lamely and Remus sat up slowly. "He told me he had something very important he needed to do and said he would be back in a few days. He wasn't too worried about the students left at Hogwarts, because it's Christmas and all, and Harry and the others are safe here with us." Remus replied having thought of what he was going to say in the wake of Dumbledore's disappearance.
Sirius apparently bought it, for he nodded his agreement readily. "So he talked to you then?" Sirius asked and Remus once again nodded not feeling up to talking to the stupid creature named Sirius Black. Then suddenly like he remembered something really important he pulled out the cold compress he had said he was going to get. He walked over to Remus who was still feeling a little queasy. "Here put this on your forehead after I give you a massage Remus." Sirius said slowly and crawled onto the bed. Remus was rather reluctant to let Sirius touch him but he forced himself to stay.
Remus almost immediately melted under the skill touch of Sirius' hands. Even though he didn't want it he felt himself relax into his touches, rubs and pushes. He even began to purr softly under the ministrations. Remus bit at his tongue for letting himself enjoy it but couldn't help himself. Sirius was sending the sickness on a holiday Remus was thankful for he must admit. He didn't even mind when Sirius gently placed butterfly kisses at the base of his neck while massaging his lower back.
Remus mindlessly let his head roll to the side to allow him better access. Sirius smiled softly against Remus' skin and brought his hands back up to rub soothing circles into Remus' stiff neck.
Sirius looked down at his love as he slept. Sirius was worried about Remus, for it was strange for the wolf to be sick. Remus may look sick all the time but he was always as healthy as a horse, for lack of better words. It worried Sirius when he saw Remus throwing up that morning while Dumbledore was visiting.
He stroked Remus' hair and looked into his sleeping face. Remus had nodded off under the skilful ministrations of Sirius' hands. Sirius had remembered the many times before when Remus would nod off from one of his massages. Oh those were the days, the days before he was accused of the murder of his best friend and his wife, the day Remus ran away. It was the day everything ended, because of that little worm Peter.
Sirius remembered Remus' idea of bringing James and Lily back from the dead, it was an idea that Remus could easily do, but it was still excruciatingly dangerous. It may even kill Remus if it was done wrong. Sirius would love to see James and Lily again and it would allow Harry to have a mom and dad like he always wanted, but Sirius didn't want to endanger his mate.
"Sirius how is Remus doing?" Came Molly's voice from the doorway. Sirius looked up a tad surprised that she was there and he hadn't heard or noticed. She raised a worried eyebrow to him and he shook his head of his thoughts and decided he shouldn't be mad at her anymore since Remus was home now. "He is recovering fast like always Molly. He is a werewolf after all. Although I think he is sick." Molly threw him a quizzical look and Sirius answered her, "He threw up this morning Molly." His answer was quick and to the point. Molly nodded, "If he threw up this morning and ate breakfast then why is he asleep again. That's not like Remus even if he is ill."
Sirius chuckled and rubbed the back of his head, "Um I gave him a massage and he fell asleep on me." He sighed wistfully and smiled warmly down at the ever-sleeping Remus, "I use to give him massages all the time, especially after his transformations, and he would always fall asleep while I did it. Its kind of a tradition I guess." He sighed inwardly and Molly smiled. "You were always a silly man, Sirius Black." She laughed and walked over to Remus.
Sirius, on the other hand, looked at her with his mouth agape and spluttered at the stout woman, "Silly! How am I silly for loving my mate?" he gushed and this only made Molly laugh harder still, "Just like that Sirius. You get all flustered when someone comments on you and Remus. It's a tad silly." Sirius snorted and sat back slightly miffed with her hassling of him. "If I'm silly woman then no word on earth can describe you." For that comment he was slapped upside the head, not to hard but enough to shock the piss out of him.
"Enough of you silly pride. The children want to see Remus." Molly stated in a matter-o-fact tone. Sirius stared at her like she was blind to the fact Remus was sleeping and was about to tell her when she held up a hand to placate him, "I know he is sleeping Sirius and I will tell the children they have to wait till he wakes up to come see him." Sirius nodded sharply and snorted again.
Molly rolled her eyes and turned to Remus' sleeping form, "You said he was sick? Well then we should see if he has a temperature. I will be right back I need my wand.. and no I don't trust you to conjure up a safe thermometer." She said as Sirius reached for his wand. Sirius spluttered indignantly at her retreating form as she laughed, "You're lucky I don't turn you into the dirt you hate so much!" he shouted after her as he heard her fly down the stairs. "Stupid woman." He muttered and then looked back at Remus whom for some reason had his eyebrows knit together. Sirius looked closer and saw that his eyelids were fluttering quickly and his eyes moved rapidly in REM sleep.
"That's strange usually he is rather peaceful and the full moon is not for another two weeks." He mused. He, however, had no idea what was going on inside Remus' mind.
Remus was asleep; he knew that much for sure, and now he found himself walking down a long dark hallway. Someone familiar was calling to him and he followed the soft hissing voice. He found himself stopping at a half closed door and reaching out to open it the rest of the way. He walked inside once it was open all the way. This room was little better off for lighting, featuring a few torches on the walls. "Do you always have to sit in the dark, master? I mean I get that you evil." Remus' voice rang sweet, cold and emotionless around the dream room. "You don't need light to see me, werewolf so I suggest you keep your tongue before I have to take it from you. Believe me that is something I would rather not do." A cold voice hissed back at his from a darkened throne style chair at the end of the room.
"You are taking too long for my liking. You had no reason what so ever to stay away from them for as long as you did. Two weeks would have done fine, Lupin. I want those ingredients now!" his master hissed out between his teeth. "My Lord this will take some time. I have only been there a few hours now. If I try anything now they will get suspicious of my intentions. Plus Dumbledore has already found out what I really want and I had to momentarily dispose of him." Remus said sweetly as he half bowed in a sort of twisted respect.
"Very well, Lupin, you have my support in you affairs, but I want this done before the affects of your globe wear off." Voldemort said dismissively. Remus was not one bit surprised that Voldemort knew about what he used to 'dispose' Dumbledore with and frankly he didn't really care as long as his master wasn't about to tear him to shreds for taking this long in the first place. "Trust my intuition, my Lord." Remus said softly and Voldemort rose slowly from his chair.
Remus stayed where he was, for if he moved it would incur his Lord's wrath. He slid over to Remus quietly and wrapped an arm around his waist. Remus dare not flinch from his master, even though the urge was strong in him. He was loyal to his master but to be near something that looked like him was mortifying in the worst way. Voldemort leaned into Remus and was about to nip Remus' ear when Remus gave a sleepy moan.
Voldemort looked away slightly mad that Remus was starting to wake up. He looked into Remus' face expecting to see relief there but saw no emotion what so ever, well except confusion. "I suppose you must wake up, but I expect you to bring me those blasted ingredients in one weeks time or there will be repercussions. Do you understand me, Werewolf?" Remus nodded sharply just glad to get away from the (all be it) horny looking man. "Yes my Lord." With that he turned and left the room, walked down the hall and found himself laying a room staring up at a ceiling.
"Well, well look who has decided to grace us with his presence." Sirius' voice rang happily in his ear and he felt another bout of bile rise in his throat. He forced it down and smiled sleepily at Sirius who broke out in a cheeky, lopsided grin. "How long have I been asleep?" he asked in a made up state of confusion. Sirius smiled softly now and looked down at him from where he was perched on the edge of the bed, "Just about two hours now. Now that you are awake Harry and the others can come in and see you." Sirius added simple-mindedly.
Remus nodded mutely, but in his mind he couldn't have been more sinfully happy that Harry wanted to see him already. He may just even get his first few ingredients sooner than he thought and the boy who lived was the one who was going to give them to him. "Go get them Sirius. I have missed them all dearly and I'm sure they are teaming with curious questions." Remus chuckled to keep up his light nature.
Sirius cocked his head to the side and stood up, "I would prefer if you rested some more before you see Harry and the others, but if that is what you want I couldn't possibly deny you." He laughed and when he turned to fetch the children Remus rolled his eyes in distaste. Sirius left the room and Remus rolled out of it and onto the floor in order to check up on Dumbledore, "Are you enjoying yourself yet? Of course you are, who wouldn't want to rest for a week and do nothing." He chuckled at Dumbledore's silence.
He knew, however, that Dumbledore could hear him perfectly well and he could hear any other conversation that would go on in this room. He couldn't even do anything about it now, well at least not for a week anyways and that was perfectly fine with Remus. Remus was thankful that he brought that little globe with him. Remus looked up when he heard excited voices come down the hall and crawled lazily back into bed. He made himself comfortable for the barrage of stupid questions.
The door swung wide and in rushed Harry, Ron and Hermione. It seemed that Sirius had decided to leave them alone to talk for a while and that suited Remus just fine, that was for sure. "Hello children how are you doing?" Remus said in a false cheery voice that sounded as sweet as honey to the ears of the children. Then took their respective places and the questions began.
Vixen-Ra: well there is another chappie. What's going to happen next? It took long enough to write though. I'm sorry it took so damned long. Next one will be up if I get more reviews. Thanks for reading. Find out more soon (I hope).

Remus had sat in bed for nearly an hour eating his breakfast peacefully when Professor Dumbledore waltzed through the bedroom door with Sirius following swiftly behind him. Remus had to force down a savage snarl when the old, wise wizard walked in. Remus could not help but feel a tight knot form in his stomach and for some odd reason he felt like he was going to through up again like he had been doing for the last month. He saw Dumbledore's eyebrow rise in slight bewilderment and Remus knew for sure that he was assessing him.
Remus would not let the old man out smart him, not by a long shot.

Sirius smiled softly now and looked down at him from where he was perched on the edge of the bed, "Just about two hours now. Now that you are awake Harry and the others can come in and see you." Sirius added simple-mindedly.
Remus nodded mutely, but in his mind he couldn't have been more sinfully happy that Harry wanted to see him already. He may just even get his first few ingredients sooner than he thought and the boy who lived was the one who was going to give them to him. "Go get them Sirius. I have missed them all dearly and I'm sure they are teaming with curious questions." Remus chuckled to keep up his light nature.
Sirius cocked his head to the side and stood up, "I would prefer if you rested some more before you see Harry and the others, but if that is what you want I couldn't possibly deny you." He laughed and when he turned to fetch the children Remus rolled his eyes in distaste. Sirius left the room and Remus rolled out of it and onto the floor in order to check up on Dumbledore, "Are you enjoying yourself yet? Of course you are, who wouldn't want to rest for a week and do nothing." He chuckled at Dumbledore's silence.
He knew, however, that Dumbledore could hear him perfectly well and he could hear any other conversation that would go on in this room. He couldn't even do anything about it now, well at least not for a week anyways and that was perfectly fine with Remus. Remus was thankful that he brought that little globe with him. Remus looked up when he heard excited voices come down the hall and crawled lazily back into bed. He made himself comfortable for the barrage of stupid questions.
The door swung wide and in rushed Harry, Ron and Hermione. It seemed that Sirius had decided to leave them alone to talk for a while and that suited Remus just fine, that was for sure. "Hello children how are you doing?" Remus said in a false cheery voice that sounded as sweet as honey to the ears of the children. Then took their respective places and the questions began.
Vixen-Ra: well there is another chappie. What's going to happen next? It took long enough to write though. I'm sorry it took so damned long. Next one will be up if I get more reviews. Thanks for reading. Find out more soon (I hope).
