Disclaimer: I own nothing but the idea!
AN:: so I had this brilliant Idea of combining two things I love more than any thing else (except dancing) Harry Potter (more specifically Remus Lupin and the marauders) and Disney songs! And guess what! It actually has a plot! And, I am open so if u have a fav. Disney song then let me know and I will include it!! Okay and now, on with the show!!!
*^*Mobs*^*
Seventeen year old Remus Lupin was reading in his cabin in the middle of the woods. He could usually be found here or at the lake by the cabin on his summer holidays. Today he was reading a collection of Poetry from Dante. His mother was set in the idea that it was not enough to simply know magic; she believed in what she called a full education which included reading literature from muggles who had been dead for many years as well as studying muggle histories and religious theories.
Yes during the school year Remus learned the skill and art that is magic, but in the summer he 'expanded his mind.' Actually Remus did enjoy the many volumes of literature his mother requested him to read. He was what one might call an intellectual.
However, there seemed to be a disturbance in the woods that would have passed by a normal boy that Remus had found hard to ignore. Remus was as different as different could be. In addition to being excited by literature, and a first rate wizard, he was also a werewolf. And his lycanthrope sharpened his meager human senses with a wolfish acuteness. As he could not read because of the kerfuffle he detected in the forest. His animal curiosity got the better of him and he went to get a closer look.
He crept closer to the noise and his behind a bush. From his hiding place he could see a group of boys that appeared to be slightly older than him. One was tall with long blond hair and a sour disposition; he was holding a torch. Beside him stood a smaller black haired boy of about Remus's age who appeared to be the same age as Remus himself. This smaller boy had a glint of admiration in his eyes that suggested he worshipped the ground that the blond walked upon. This group was chattering noisily and at first Remus couldn't tell what they were saying, but slowly the sounds began to form words-
We're not safe until he's dead!
He'll come stalking us at night!
Set to sacrifice all children to his monstrous appetite!
He'll wreak havoc on our village if we let him wander free!
Blond: So it's time to take some action boys! It's time to follow me!
Remus realized what the boys were talking about. No, it couldn't be! How did they… it didn't matter they knew! And Malfoy, who Remus now recognized as the blond, appeared to be provoking the mob.
The group of boys were all holding threatening objects in their hands and crowding around Lucius who, holding a torch, was pointing in Remus's direction.
Remus was scared. He began to back away slowly before turning and running towards his cabin, all the time their viscous chants following him-
Through the mist through the woods, through the darkness and the shadows. It's
A nightmare but its one exciting ride!
Say a prayer that we're there at the door of some old cabin, where there's something truly horrible in side!
It's a beast he's got fang's razor sharp ones! Massive paws, killer claws for
The feast.
Hear him roar! See him foam! But were not coming home 'til he's dead! Good and dead! Kill the beast!
Remus ran harder; he knew he had to be almost there! He didn't remember it taking so long to get to the bush where he had hidden! Oh god! RUN!!
Light you torch, mount your horse. Screw your courage to the sticking place! We're counting on Malfoy to lead the way!
Through a mist through a wood, where within a crumbling cabin there's something that you don't see every day!
It's a beast! One as tall as a mountain! We won't rest till he's good and deceased!
Sally forth! Talley ho! Grab your sword! Grab your bow!
Praise the Lord here we go!
Remus made it to the cabin, running in and quickly barricading the door. They were so close, and every second drawing closer! Here! They were here! HE could hear their hands beating against the cabin!
Hearts a blaze, banners high, we go marching into battle unafraid although the danger just increased.
Raise the flag! Sing the song! Here we come fifty strong! And fifty men just can't be wrong!
Let's kill the beast!
The door buckled and the walls shake any second they would be in!
Kill the beast!
Every thing around Remus became a blazing orange. Fire! Soon he would be dead!
Kill The Beast!
The window crashed and the door collapsed in and Remus could see their hateful faces. This was it; it was all over now!
KILL THE BEAST!
***********************
Remus sat bolt upright in his bed, a cold sweat clinging to his body, his ribs heaving in and out at an unnatural pace. Carefully, he touched his head, chest, and bed as if to make sure they were all there. Just a dream, that's all it was, a silly figment of his unconscious mind.
Heaving a sigh, Remus flopped back on his pillow. School could not start again too soon. All his life, what he could remember of it any ways, he had had nightmares of this sort. Terrible dreams in which people wanted to kill him simply because he was different. Had any one really known him, they would have realized that Remus was a highly intelligent boy who could never consciously hurt a fly. Sure thirteen nights a year, he ceased to be a boy, but that didn't make him evil. Why he knew plenty of people who were evil enough and were a human for three hundred and sixty five days a year!
But no, people found that he was a werewolf and they ran in the other direction. No one stayed, not really. There were of course a few exceptions-
Remus turned on his side to look into the middle of his moonlit room thinking fondly of his dorm mates. There was James: confidant, smart, yet still slightly awkward with a boyish quality that made him the next door neighbor type. Then there was Sirius. Talented, outgoing, and charming beyond all belief, that was Sirius. And also, there was Peter. Peter who was never as sure of him self and tended always to talk fast while looking at his feet. Yet these other boys befriended him and made him feel welcome, as they had Remus. Remus himself was the smart, quite, and mysterious one. It's sort of hard not to be mysterious when you had to hide something like Remus did.
Yes they were all as different as could be, yet friends they were and would always remain. Four strands of rope winded together to make the strongest bond one could know. Together they were unstoppable. Everyone had an important role to play in their group, even little Peter.
Remus missed his friends terribly and couldn't wait until the day that they would be together again. He was so much stronger with them; he wasn't afraid and didn't have nightmares. With them he wasn't just Remus Lupin; he was *Remus Lupin*! And he was great.

Okay, so that is the first chapter, I know its short, but its fun, and it's mostly exposition, but that song is what gave me the idea, now ur job? Tell me what movie its from! This one shouldn't be too hard, but I do know some obscure movies for later! This fic will be fun! Yay!
And bonus points to any one who can guess where I got the name of the title from!
Okay, I have big planes for this, so read and review, and I'll write more, and we'll all be happy!
Remember I'm open to ideas for songs! I have a plot, but it doesn't mean I cant incorporate other things into it! Does this classify as a crossover? Oh well, let me know how it is k guys!
Bye for now! If like this, read my fic Solitude! It's good and in the beginning still so there's not much to catch up on, but Façade is prolly my best, complete w/ 17 chapters. But I must go for now!
Please note also that I had to change some words of the song to make it fit well.
