Chapter Three
Hermione and Ron waited for Harry outside the Defence Against The Dark Arts classroom. Hermione was looking out of the enormous window, her eyes filled with tears. Ron was looking down at his shoes, trying not to listen to Dean and Seamus.
"I DON'T believe he's going," shouted Dean, his face pale. No one has seen Dean this angry. He was usually very cool and loud.
Seamus shook his head. His blue eyes look worried and frightened.
"What if....What if .... He doesn't ..." he stammered.
Deans brown eyes looked sharply at Seamus. There was no sign of his trademark cheeky grin
"Don't Seamus. Just don't". His eyes moved toward the door behind Defence Against The Dark Arts room. It flew open revealing a furious upset Harry who slammed the door behind him and then stalked down the corridor. Ron and Hermione shared a quick look between them, before racing after him.
"Harry, Harry mate stop". Ron yelled, chasing him down quickly. Harry continued walking, though his pace lessoned. As they reached his side, he spoke.
"I cant believe him", he said lowly "How can he do this to me, to us" Ron shook his head looking away.
"He must have some reason, he wouldn't leave you otherwise Harry. Not after what happened with....." he trailed off, looking helpless. Harry laughed bitterly
"You'd think that wouldn't you," he said
"But it's the reason" Hermione spoke "Look lets skip Herbology today. Lets go to the common room instead" Ron and Harry looked at her in surprise before nodding and they changed their direction, heading towards the stairs instead.
Harry walked with both her and Ron at his side. The three of them were silent, each of them deep in thought.
They reached the Gryffindor common room and headed to their favourite comfy chairs by the fire, even though it was a warm day, the three of them felt very cold.
Ron stared at the empty fire whereas Hermione looked out of the window. Harry continued looking down at his hands.
The three of them did not know what to say. Each was deeply troubled by Lupin's revelation. Ron exhaled deeply and shook his head. His large blue eyes tired and weary.
"I cant believe it" he said simply. Harry looked at him, his eyes now calm but still with that pain. "I don't know what he's thinking. I wanted to kill Bellatrix after she got...." His voice trailed.
"But he said no, he said that the Order would get her. But now he's going after HIM, Volde.., he's going to get killed"
"Its not Voldemort he's after" Hermione said, her voice dead of emotion. "Its obvious isn't it" she turned back to them. "He's after Voldemort for the death of James but first he'll be after Bellatrix for the death of....of Sirius. She's easier to get"
"Its not his place" Ron said, his voice sounding furious. "If Bellatrix killed Sirius, she can to the same to Remus". Harry shrugged.
"I don't know" he said troubled. "You didn't hear his voice or see his expression. He's different. He's desperate to do this" Hermione nodded.
"I don't think he's thinking at all. He got Sirius back just to lose him again. That's all that he can think of now, Sirius and Harry" Harry snorted "Me?" he repeated scornfully "How is he thinking of me?"
Hermione gave him a false forced smile. "He's thinking of you by trying to take all the dangers away from you"
Ron and Harry looked at her confused
"He wants to make sure that you have a full life, that you wont have to fight in this war for the rest of your life and.. and "she looked into Harry's eyes and then into Ron's.
"That you don't have to lose your very best friends to Voldemort"
Harry looked at her and then turned away.
"How do you get all that?" asked Ron
"I listen Ron. Remus eyes say it all and it's obvious. The three of us would have been the exactly like him, your dad and Sirius would have been too" Ron shrugged.
"I know," he said uncomfortably. "But I don't know what he's going to achieve with his death" Hermione smiled bitterly.
"He doesn't expect to beat Voldemort, he expects to kill Bellatrix, she's Voldemort's right hand person. If Remus kills her, it makes it that slight bit easier for Harry. He'll kill everybody to reach her".
"That doesn't sound like him" Ron said doubtfully. Harry spoke quietly
"Well he's not exactly acting like himself at the moment is he?" Ron bit his lip.
"Do you think Dumbledore knows?"
Hermione shook her head.
"No if he did, he would have stopped Remus straight away. He would have spoken some sense to him"
Ron nodded.
"Yeah, Dumbledore wont let him go for this. Yes he understands his motives but he wouldn't want Remus to risk his life especially since Remus is very special to him"
"Indeed he is" came a voice from the Gryffindor common room door.
They turned round to see Dumbledore standing by the portrait entrance, looking round.
"Ahh I see the décor here is just as I remember, nice and bright"
"Professor" Hermione said in shock, he bent his head slightly to her.
"Miss Granger and Mr Weasley and Mr Potter. Why don't you explain to me what you know" Their mouths fell open in shock.
"Err...well" Ron trailed off. What exactly were they ment to say? Harry looked up; a determined glint in his eye and spoke calmly to the aging professor.
"Professor Remus is leaving Hogwarts to avenge the death of Sirius and my dad. He wants to kill Bellatrix."
Dumbledore nodded, his blue eyes twinkled.
"So he has decided to leave?"
The trio nodded.
"We can Not let him to this Professor. We cannot lose him. We've already lost Sirius" said Hermione in a voice that made Dumbledore look at her in a different light.
Dumbledore walked towards Hermione and sat down next to her on the comfy red chairs. He put his hand on Hermione's shoulder and looked at Harry and Ron.
"I have always known how important Sirius was to Harry but I'm afraid I overlooked the fact that both you and Ron also had a very tight bond with the two of them"
Hermione looked down at her hands, her eyes filling with tears again. Ron looked at Dumbledore and nodded his head and spoke.
"The bonds bigger with Remus because the taught us...we...all of us.....can't bear the thought of lousing him" Harry turned to him
"Sir cant you talk to him?" he pleaded. "He'll listen to you. Your opinion means everything to him" Dumbledore looked thoughtful and then shook his head.
"Ahh Harry gone are the days when I could tell Remus Lupin what to do. He is a man of 39, not a student, if I stopped him, he'd resent me and that cannot happen"
"Why not?"
"I cannot explain that to you. If Remus wishes to go then..." he stopped looking sad.
There you go! Hope you enjoyed that. Chapter 4 is on its way!
Love Lupinsloons!
