~*~*~*~*~
Once upon a time, there was a wealthy family named the Blacks. They
were all snobby aristocrats who thought of everyone else as below
them, except for one boy. *Well, he also had a rebellious cousin, but
that is not critical for this tale.* This boy was named Sirius, and he
hated his upper-crust family, especially his always-screaming mother
and perverted, but looks angelic, little brother Regulas. Sirius
didn't like how his family had treated the less fortunate and "weird"
things.
Sirius was the white sheep of the Black family, never wanting to hex
things and study the *really* dark arts. He also refused to join Lord
Voldemort's royal army *gag*. His family loathed him, and though he
was a trouble-maker, he was an incredibly handsome one. Sirius had
beautiful long ebony hair and stunning stormy blue eyes. His face
always had on a saucy grin that oozed self-confidence. Sirius was
gorgeous, and though he was the troublemaking brat of the family,
noble girls flocked at him, making his brother Regulas extremely
jealous and his parents angry.
Being a rebellious lad, Sirius sought ought ways to make his family
loathe him more. He knew he had better looks and charm then his
brother would ever have, and he used that to his advantage. Whenever
there was a suitable fiancée for Regulas, Sirius would always have an
affair with her, and when the girl *or boy* would break it off with
Regulas to try their luck with Sirius, who would then dump them, not
really interested anyway.
Sirius played pranks on his family during important social parties and
never obeyed a word his parents had said. He skived off his lessons
and hatched new devious pranks against his family. His family hated
him and he returned the feelings.
Now Regulas despised Sirius for all the pranks he had pulled *like
turning his "beautiful" hair into snakes, slithering off his head when
he had tried to entertain his cousin Bellatrix* and for Sirius' witty
charms. He wanted to get rid of Sirius permanently, and he had found a
way. Regulas had found a dark curse, the Animagi curse, which would
get rid of Sirius once and for all. The curse was horrible and
gruesome, but it was perfect for a weirdo like Sirius. The Animagi
curse made a person turn half human and half animal, making the person
have grotesque features and horrible to look at, with their mutilated
forms.
Now that he had a plan, he had begun to set it into action. He needed
the help from Lord Severus of the Slytherin Kingdom, to help make the
potion, since Lord Severus excelled in making potions. Hating Sirius
also, Severus gladly helped to make the potion. When the potion was
made, the plan was set.
The potion itself was fowl looking and smelled horrible, Severus was
especially proud of it. Once it was drunk, the effects were incurable.
The potion was snuck into Sirius' butterbeer one night, and Regulas
eagerly waited to see the results.
In his private quarters, Sirius was devising a map, but was having a
lot of trouble with it. Deep in his concentration, he drank his
butterbeer without a thought, not knowing of the foul potion that was
in it, until he had swallowed, and had a tainted aftertaste in his
mouth.
Immediately after he drank it, his stomach began to churn and the room
began to get all blurry. The poison began to spread throughout his
body, and when Sirius passed out, the mutation began to take place.
When dawn shown up, Sirius awoke groggily. He noticed that he could
smell breakfast extremely well and he could heart the house elves
clanking away in the kitchens. He could hear the clanging of pots, but
that should've been impossible because the kitchen was downstairs, and
he was three stories up! Surprised, he nervously a hand through his
hair, but then stopped suddenly when he felt something on his head.
Something was sticking out of his head and it was furry and pointy. He
looked at his hands and to his horror, saw that his arm hair was
thicker and blacker. Rushing toward the mirror, Sirius looked at the
image before him and gaped.
The things he had felt on his head were ears, pointy black canine
ears. His face that was usually clean shaven had grown some soft
facial hair, making his face seem furry, like a dog. His teeth were
more pointed, and he had a sudden craving for meat. Gawking at the
mirror, Sirius felt something swishing back and forth behind him, and
to his surprise, saw a black tail emerging from his arse! Sirius
screamed and almost fainted.
Regulas had heard the scream and rushed to his brother's room,
smirking along the way. His grin widened when he saw the horrifying
figure. Smirking at his brother, Regulas teased him, laughing when he
saw the expression on Sirius' face when he mentioned that the effects
were permanent.
"Now no one will notice you now, and you are now an outcast to the
whole human and 'normal' society as a whole!" Regulas cackled
gleefully when Sirius sprinted away.
Sirius ran throughout the house, hearing his house elves scream, and
ran with tears in his eyes. He was now a monster, and would be treated
as one. Still running, Sirius ran to the forest, intending to never
see the Black Manor again, and the human society.
~*~*~*~*~
Three years had passed, and poor Sirius had retreated far away from
society in the Forbidden Forest, where he had built his own home, The
Shrieking Shack, and lived in isolation. The once very sociable lad
now preferred the loneliness, rather having that then the horrifying
screams and gasps from people.
His home for three years, the Shrieking Shack, was right in the middle
of the Forbidden Forest, and it was right under a huge ferocious tree,
the Whomping Willow. Sirius sometimes went out of the shack to wander
the forest, finding and hunting for food. He had few possessions,
which he had acquired from a village some miles away. He had only
visited there twice; both times he was chased out of the village from
the angry mob with pitchforks and wands. He did manage to find some
possessions in a trash can, keeping them for himself. Once was of a
fairy tale book, which Sirius seldom read, because 1.) He had always
hated reading, and 2.) His life certainly wasn't a fairytale.
On the inside of the worn book were several classics. One was a
familiar one about a princess locked up in a tower, waiting for love's
first kiss.
"As the prince ascended the tower, he was met with the sight of the
beautiful princess. So still was she, her eyes closed and her lips
parted, waiting for true love's first kiss. The prince walked up to
her and bent his face down, preparing to kiss the beautiful
princess.....
"What a load of rubbish!" Sirius laughed, his laughter echoing
throughout the shack.
"True love's first kiss? That is so pathetic!" Sirius snorted, not
believing that true love could ever exist. And it could especially
never exist for someone like him. How wrong he is..

Author's Note: I had this idea from watching the movie Shrek with the kid I was babysitting. I thought how Princess Fiona's curse was much like a werewolf one, except that it's every night except for one month. Shrek and Fiona's "curse" counterparts look alike, as is the same with Sirius and Remus, being a werewolf and a dog. The donkey reminded me as James, the annoying friend who tried to pair the couple up, and Lord Farqua is like Snape, wanting the Princess, *or Prince* but then condemning her when he knows of the curse. I originally was going to make Sirius always have been a "monster", like it is in Shrek, but I thought the whole Animagi curse is interesting. I hope I'll continue this soon, but I currently have other pieces of fiction I should be on. Also, the whole story won't be in this type of dialogue. I prefer doing POV fics, but the prologue is only narrative first.
Author's Note on Haunted Eyes: No, I haven't given up on the story. I'm still in love with it, but I was currently being too lazy to write another chapter. I'm working on one right now though, so it'll be coming soon. *Probably during the Lunar New Year, because that's when I have no school!
