Wolf Cry
"You look as though you've been hexed." Bellatrix told Nissa as they stood outside of Defence against the Dark Arts.
"I still don't know if I like it or not." Severus said.
"Well Bellatrix doesn't like it, so I'm with her; you know a girls opinion and everything." Lestrange said smiling at her.
"I don't think your opinion counts, because we're not asking it." Sirius told them, gently pulling her away not really wanting to pull her away because he knows that she would have just stayed with them to annoy him even if she didn't want too stay herself.
"Why are you friends with that lot?" James asked her.
"I'm friends with Severus; I never said I was friends with the rest of them." Nissa told him.
They all smiled.
"I bet Bellatrix doesn't know that, I think she thinks that you really are friends." Sirius said.
Nissa smiled at him and then followed Lily in, Sirius, James, Remus and Peter sat at the back of the class. They needed to talk.
"So this is the year that we have to do it." James whispered. "We'll have a quick lunch and then start."
Every lunch, every spare hour they could find they practice changing; they were getting close they were spending most of the time helping Peter, because they were so close themselves.
"I'm sorry mate." James said the night before the full moon. "We'll have it down by next month though."
"Yeah we will, we won't sleep or eat until we figured it out." Sirius reassured him. "We'll still eat; I have to have my food to keep up my strength."
They all laughed at him, they all knew by now what he was like with his food. It was the full moon and Remus had left them earlier that night, not Nissa was still there and seemed quit fine.
"You know I don't really think she is, she can't be." Sirius said staring at her.
"She's got Remus convinced though." James reminded him. "And you know what he's like."
Sirius stood up and walked over to her. "A word please."
Nissa looked up at him, as did Lily and Natalie, she out her things down and walked over with him and sat down in-between him and James.
"I told them." Sirius told her hoping that she would know what he was talking about.
"Well it would have surprised me more if you hadn't." Nissa told him.
"Oh right." Sirius said.
"We just wanted to know, if its true." James told her. "Look outside; do you know what night it is?"
"Of course I do, and what day it is and what month and what year." Nissa answered, and then said a little quieter. "Though it's just not the right one to where I belong."
"What, what was that?" Sirius asked her.
"Nothing." Nissa said off handily.
"It's just well, you're not... well your still you aren't you?" James said.
"Would you prefer if I just changed right here?" Nissa asked.
"NO!" They all said at the same time.
"Fine, we'll do it this way." James told her. "We don't really believe you; which you can't balm us of course. But we're learning..."
"I know, it's a very good thing what your doing for Remus." Nissa told them all. "I don't think you really know how much everything you have done for him mean's to someone like him. That he has found friends that understand, and aren't close minded and aren't afraid."
"We do, he's our best mate." Sirius told her.
"Right, so that's settled you don't come out until we can change." James told her. "Though we're not telling you what we can change into, unless you already know."
"No, no I don't." Nissa said.

Remus was tossing and turning, he'd been sleeping uneasy ever since they told him when he had come back that Nissa would join them one night after they've learnt how to become Animagi.
...Remus was stood in the grounds, he looked up it was a full moon but he hadn't changed he was still himself.
He looked around, and saw Sirius he started to walk over to him but then stopped dead; there was a werewolf sat a couple of feet behind him. She was beautiful, so beautiful even in his human form he was drawn to her; how could he not.
He looked at Sirius and then back at the wolf; sitting there so peacefully just looking up at the moon, something he wouldn't dare to do. But he did without thinking.
His body started grow painfully and started to grow fur, it happened so fast he had never changed so fast; and he was charging at Sirius before he knew what he was doing but he never reached him.
He was hit hard by something as he leaped through the air and then hit the ground hard again, he got to all four. It was the female werewolf, she was stood in-between him and Sirius protecting Sirius from him; but he didn't want Sirius now he wanted her.
She looked up at the full moon again and howled, he had heard it so many times at night; though this was the first time on a full moon unless his mind had been to much a monster to have realised. He sat down on the grass and howled with her...
"Remus wake up, wake up!" Sirius was shouting at him, as he howled and scratched in his sleep.
"Is he alright?" Matt asked not stepping away from his own bed with Peter, as James and Sirius tried to wake him up.
Remus suddenly sat bolt up right and wide awake, looking around him.
"You alright?" James asked him.
"You were kind of howling." Sirius told him quietly, though there wasn't really any point because they had all heard him.
"I was, I didn't realise." Remus said a little shyly. "I'm sorry."
"Bad dream?" James asked.
Remus nodded, though it hadn't been a bad dream just a little odd really; a nice kind of odd though.
"But your alright?" Sirius asked him.
"Maybe he should go to the hospital wing, he was howling; normal people don't do that." Matt said.
Both James and Sirius turned round and stared at him, he stepped back and that was the end of that.
"He's fine he's normal, he's staying." Sirius told him firmly.
"You look as though you've been hexed." Bellatrix told Nissa as they stood outside of Defence against the Dark Arts.
"I still don't know if I like it or not." Severus said.
"Well Bellatrix doesn't like it, so I'm with her; you know a girls opinion and everything." Lestrange said smiling at her.
