Disclaimer: If you wanna sue all you're gonna get is a bunch of books and my jimmy jams.

Thanks too:

Hpstoryguy: AH do not fret, I shall continue and I'm even debating on a sequel, maybe a kind of prequel with Sirius and Remus's relationship. What do you guys think? Anyway, thank you. I try to appear unique so to have you say it was a breath of fresh air.

INdEpEnDeNt cHiK: An arse is to gentle a term my dear lol. That's why I just HAD to send Harry in to crack a few skulls. I'm glad I can extract such positive reactions from you, I like to make people smile.

Cardinal: What, Cara's dating THE Harry Potter! You gotta cop a grope!

Nugtrdifcezuyt87hs2s564273dsdrgg4327654865: I beg you, not such a big name next time, whew that took ages to type. Anyway, I will indeed try to keep it up.

Neko-Shi: Ah Konnichiwa! Lol, Yes Imagine should Cara get pissed he'd be rather polite as he does it.

Jenna: I love the element of surprise lol! I'm glad Cara's become a character people can slip in to fit with Harry. No I agree, sex is good and all but unless it fits the story it's just a bit smutty. Cara – Caring, good observation lol. I intend to use Cara again in fics, possibly a story about a few more years down the line and I little one shots.

Beenie weenie: Willow and Tara were definitely my favourites in Buffy and sugar, everyone had enjoyed & become obsessed with Buffy but not everyone admits it lol. Aye, I am indeed your home breed Brit, I was the sad git who read Philosopher's stone and when Hagrid said the line "He fell asleep as we were flying over Bristol" I was yelling "I LIVE THERE I LIVE THERE!" And so Americans don't have the slang down yet, you do have that 'straight to the point not tiptoeing around the bush' thing working which we Brits seem to be afraid of lol. But I do pity you guys for one thing, My American friend Heather informs me you don't get the Harry Potter sweets over there! They are so NICE, The chocolate Frogs especially. In fact I'm munching on my HP Easter egg as we speak.

Elrohir lover: Wahey Kisses, lol! Again, Aye I am from Harry Potter's home country! BLOODY awful weather (having said that it's rather sunny outside...still freezing though). I'm glad you like my fic, and you all really do make me smile. You're all so nice!

Happy Easter everyone!

Chapter 21 – New Family

Harry carried two cup-a-soups into Remus's room. He placed it by the bed where the sickly werewolf lay sleeping, exhausted both from crying the night before and the upcoming transformation tonight.

He turned then to go into the guestroom where Cara too was still curled up under the covers. His fingers were curled around the top of the duvet as it lay pulled upto his collarbone.

The bed shifted slightly as Harry sat slowly on to it, placing the cup on the bedside cabinet. He gently stroked the blonde's fringe out of his eyes and placed a kiss on top of his brow.

Cara's eyes flickered until amber eyes became visible. Giving his lover a small lop-sided smile he reached his hand up to run it through the unkempt raven hair.

"How're you feeling?" The animagi whispered, avoiding loud noises, as he knew the sensitivity that the senses developed during the day of the Full Moon.

"Tired," The blonde croaked, "But I'm ok."

"Mmm, ok. I'm going to tidy the house for Remus while you two rest ok?"

The young werewolf nodded and the two shared a brief kiss before Harry stood once more, kissing the blonde hair again then left the room.

Harry rolled up the sleeves of his shirt as he decided to start with the dishes. He let the water run a little to warm up, humming quietly to himself as he did so, until he put the plates and cups into soak a little.

He spent most of the morning dusting, still humming his tune and it wasn't until he was sweeping the floor did the tune become words:

"Amharc, mná ag obair lá's mall san óich,

Ceolann siad ar laetha geal, a bhí

Bealach fada annon's anoll a choích."

He continued to hum a little more until he finally quietened, Frowning slightly at the words he'd just sung he shook his head.

"Don't stop." A voice whispered.

Turning he found Cara standing a little weakly at his bedroom door until he moved over to the sofa, his sheets still wrapped around him

"It made me feel calm."

Harry moved to sit beside his lover, pulling him into his arms as he leant backwards. He stroked his fingers through the gold strands idly as he sang in a low soothing voice.

"O môr henion I dhû

Ely siriar, el sila,

Ai! Aníron Undomiel.

Tiro! Êl eria môr.

I 'lír en êl luitha 'uren.

Ai! Aníron..."

A comfortable silence followed as the last of the animagi's words echoed very slightly off the walls.

"What does it mean?" Cara asked quietly as Harry continued to slip the blonde's hair through his fingers.

"...I haven't a clue." They both laughed as the werewolf tilted his head back to kiss his mate.

Remus gave a little smile as he lent against his doorframe. The two teens pulled back smiling at one another and with one last wistful smile the aged werewolf quietly closed his door, climbing back into his bed.

~*~

"There's a little wood nearby I go to when I change, there's no one else around here for a fair few miles so it's pretty safe to walk around undetected."

The evening was rolling up fast and the two Lycan's were visibly draining. They were all currently sat in the chairs surrounding the fireplace. Harry had put together a simple meal, something gentle on the sensitive stomachs of the tired men.

"How are we doing this then? Will Moony appreciate two strange wolves next to him when he changes." The animagi asked as he sat with Cara's head in his lap.

"Hmm, good point. Maybe you should change in the guest room as I'm sure Cara informed you about the rather 'lupine' moment we still have after transformation."

"Aye, I did." Mumbled the blonde as he lay resting his eyes.

"Right well keep the door ajar so you can get out, I'll meet you in here." Remus said as he stood slowly due to his aching muscles, "I'm going to go lie in my bed, we'll be changing soon."

Another hour rolled by as the two lovers lay facing each other on the bed. Cara had dozed off, as Harry lay awake, stroking the elegant features.

Suddenly the blonde's back arched and he let out a yell making Harry sit up suddenly and grasp a clenched hand.

"Cara!"

The young werewolf's limbs trembled painfully as he quickly curled into a ball. The dark animagi pulled him into his arms and held him close to his chest. Cara shook in his arms, a tear making its way down his cheek as he coughed.

Soothingly, if a little shakily, Harry began to sing like before. He felt his mate relax a little, as much as one could whilst their body was being torn apart, and he continued to rock him gently.

"C-Change." Cara gasped out as he arched once more. The dark teen did as he was told, changing into the brilliant white wolf as his boyfriend's body changed and twisted to the form of a large wolf.

A few minutes the white wolf moved over to its trembling mate, licking at the aching limbs. The werewolf licked the tip of Harry's snout in thanks.

They both turned their heads as they heard a loud whine come from the other room. Looking at one another they started to make their way towards the other wolf in the other room.

Pushing the door open Harry whined at the scene before him. Moony was frantically running around the room, giving mournful whines and low growls as he called his mate out.

Cara gave a low bark instantly catching the attention of the other Lycan. Moony's ear's twitched forward at the two other wolves. He lowered his head and bared his teeth whilst he gave a low, threatening growl.

His Dragga instincts kicking in, the white wolf stepped in front of Cara to protect him. He refused to growl back at the one person he considered a father but the movement conveyed the message enough... 'Hurt him and I'll attack you.'

Whining very slightly Moony raised his head a little, looking between the two cautiously. Walking forwards with his neck held in view to show submission Harry walked over to the tawny wolf and licked his snout before rolling over onto his back before him.

Cara wagged his tail as Moony accepted his mate's offer and licked him back. The blonde wolf stepped forwards and was instantly licked by Harry. Moony watched the exchange and knew instantly that this wolf was like him, both man & wolf.

He nuzzled the two juveniles in acceptance and all three reared their heads in a haunting song, howling to the moon visible through the window.

Moony wagged his tail and his tongue lolled out happily. These two cubs were like him and Padfoot. Maybe they were his mate's children, HIS children? He looked around for his mate to step out and proudly introduce the two cubs but still the black dog did not come.

Turning to the white wolf he whined... 'Where is Padfoot?'

The snow wolf's ears flattened and his tail tucked between his legs. He lowered his head as the werewolf next to him whined sadly...This was all that Moony needed to know.

He gave a yelp of disbelief and began running around the house, barking for Padfoot to come out. Harry howled a little behind him stopping him in his search. The howl was pained, like a child that had lost a parent and Moony turned slowly to the shivering cub.

This juvenile too mourned the loss of his mate and right now he needed another parent to guide him, love him while the other can not.

Cara watched with an ache in his heart as the larger Dragga walked back to the snow white wolf and nuzzled him, the two whining as they mourned there beloved.

~*~

Remus felt his muscles aching after the transformation as he blinked himself awake. Pushing himself up a little he discovered someone had placed a blanket over him before he had changed.

Looking to his left he saw a sleeping Harry and Cara, curled around one another. The younger wolf too had a sheet wrapped around him so Remus figured Harry must have placed one of both of them after he changed.

For the first time since Sirius had died he felt strangely complete, Not completely but near enough.

The presence of the two teens last night had been comforting and to know he hadn't spent another fruitless night searching for his mate made him smile slightly.

These two were his pack know, he realised as he gazed down at the sleeping pair. Wrapping the sheets tighter around him he tucked them in better with a kiss to each brow. Now he had a family.

AN By the way, this is still not the end lol!

Oops, I forgot to add this the first time I put it up:

The first song translation is:

"Look, Women working by day

and late at night,

They sing of Bright days that were,

A long way back and forth forever.

The second song was:

"From Darkness I understand the night:

dreams flow, a star shines

Ah! I desire Evenstar

Look! A star rises out of the darkness

The song of the star enchants my heart

Ah! I desire..."
