Sirius felt a cold gush of wind brush his face. He looked around, he apparently was in an

alleyway, but by the sound of all the noise he was in Hogsmead. "Wait," he thought, "

Then that means I'm outside," Sirius glance down, instead of feet, he saw two big fluffy

paws. "Wow, I made it he said," but his voice hadn't been English; his voice was turned

into barks. Sirius then reflected on what had just happened, he suddenly felt very

ashamed and stupid." SIRIUS YOU IDIOT, YOU JUST SAW YOUR DEAD BEST

FRIEND, AND ALL YOU COULD SAY WAS HI AND BYE!!" He scolded himself

over and over until he heard what sounded like a wave of children coming into the town.

Sirius peeked his head out, and sure enough, the streets were flooded with Hogwarts

students. " What, luck, there is a Hogsmead trip today," he said quietly (or barked).

Sirius decided to try and find Harry as quick as possible, so he wandered out of the alley

and into the infested streets. Many students walked right past him, but some pointed and

laughed at the sight of a large, black dog in Hogsmead. Sirius suddenly heard an

unmistakable, voice, "NO! IT CAN'T BE!" The voice cried rather fearfully.

A/N: So, I bet you all think it's Harry right? Well I put this note in just to make you anxious :P.

Sirius turned and saw a pale white (whiter than usual) Draco Malfoy, Sirius growled at

him. " I"VE GOT TO OWL DAD! GRABB, GOYLE, COME WITH ME YOU BIG

APES!" Malfoy took off down the streets with his thugs not far behind. Sirius attempted

to chase after him but Draco had been lost in a sea of children. " AHHHH!" Sirius

thought, "WHAT IF HE TELLS LUCIUS! THEN WHAT!!" Sirius's mind had been so

flooded with panic; he didn't even realize that a skinny boy with glasses, and messy black

hair had walked right past him, like he wasn't there.

After twenty minutes of searching Sirius began to feel worried, "What if I don't find

him," he yelped," What if I go back, without even barking at him! WHAT IF!" Sirius

suddenly stopped, as he looked around, and saw many, many students looking at him like

he was a rabid animal. Sirius sighed and continued down the street. He felt his hope and

determination start to fade away, Padfoot felt like an angel without wings. "Might as well

try to sneak in the back of The Three Broomsticks, he could be there. Sirius knew of a

rather large hole in the alley behind The Three Broomsticks that led to its kitchen.

Sirius squeezed through the hole, and crept into the kitchen of the pub. He eased his way

into the pub's main room, and hid behind an over turned table towards the back of the

room. Sirius watched the crowd grow and shrink for a while, but there was no sign of

Harry, or his friends. Sirius turned around, to make his way out, but blocking the way

was a tall man, with silvery blond hair, and a devilish smirk. " So we meet again Sirius

Black," were his only words.
