Remus walked up the stairs in Daemon's house and opened the door to Nikki's
room and peered in like he did for the past eight years. There she was,
officially a teenager and the hardest thing to wake up. He opened the door
and began his routine that he did to wake her up. He raised the pot and
wooden spoon that he took from the kitchen and began to clang it together
like it was a triangle (the instrument, not shape).
"Alright wake up!" He shouted as he threw her curtain back to reveal the unbelievably bright sun. "It's ten o'clock. Get a move on."
"Who dares to disturb the princess?" She mumbled from her pillow.
"Her lowly servant who has made her a delightful meal of cereal and milk that will get soggy if you don't hurry up and get up." He explained as he threw her cheerleading uniform at her. "Now get changed. You have a competition in an hour." He ended as he closed the door.
Remus descended the stairs and entered the kitchen as he heard the oh-so- familiar sound of Nikki, only half awake, walking into a wall. She came down the stairs in her green and white cheerleading uniform and her shaggy short black hair in a high ponytail.
"Sugar please Remus" She requested when she sat down looking at her bland cereal.
"Yes you're majesty." He said and placed the sugar bowl in front of her.
"Thank you and don't use that tone of voice with me." She commanded as she poured half of the sugar on to her cereal.
"Going a little light on the sugar don't you think?" He asked her sarcastically.
"I'm not in the mood right now. I just woke up Remus," She warned before she began to drink the milk out of her bowl.
"I'll go start up the car" Remus told her as she went to brush her teeth. He walked out of the giant white house, no longer disguised as a cottage, and began to cool off the car. Seconds later Nikki came out the door and in to the car.
"We need to go to the beach. I left my cheerleading shoes there last time I visited Lé Anna." She explained as she buckled her self in. "You still like Lé Anna right?" She asked with a grin.
"I don't know. I didn't see her since your Dad got taken a-. " He cut himself off. He glanced at Nikki who was currently looking out the window.
"He's innocent you know." She said about five minutes into the drive.
"Does she live in a beach house?" He questioned as he turned into the lot in front of the Snack Shack.
"Yeah, I'll be back in a minute." She said as she left the car. She ran up to the nearest house and a girl with fiery red hair opened the door and gave Nikki a sweet smile before she handed her her white shoes. Remus suddenly had this sinking feeling that he was looking directly at Lily.
"Nikki." He asked as she slipped on her shoes and they were headed towards the school. "Who was that?"
"It was Lé Anna's friend Carrie. Why?"
"No reason. . she just reminded me of someone."
````````` "Nikki how can you stand being thrown into the air like that?" Remus asked in disbelief as her team left the floor.
"I just got used to it I guess." She said as her cell phone began to ring. "Hello," she said as she flipped it opened. "Hi Mom. What's.. wha? What happened? .. Un-huh..I just finished...Ok. I'll see you in a few minutes. Bye."
"Remus. We have to leave." She said as she hung up the small phone and left towards the door.
"What happened?" He asked as they climbed into the car.
"My Dad escaped." She said as they began to drive out of the parking lot.
"How?" He asked in disbelief.
"They don't know. Mom's already home." She noted as the pulled up to the house.
The two walked through the house and into the kitchen where Daemon was sitting, looking very unprofessional, clinging on to a mug filled with hot chocolate.
"Daemon what's wrong?" Remus asked.
"They want me to search for my own husband and then kill my own husband. I can't do it. Oh, and as a safety procedure, they want you to teach Defense Against the Dark Arts at Hogwarts Remus."
"What? Why?" He asked completely shocked.
"They're looking for a new teacher, Lockheart went nuts, like the little fruit wasn't before he lost his memory. You're one of Sirius'. 'friends'. I know that you want him captured. You don't even believe that he's innocent. Beside you taught Nikki DADA last year for me."
"I guess that I could do that." He said reluctantly. "Does Dumbledore want to see me?"
"Yes. He said as soon as possible would be the best." Daemon said solemnly.
"Alright. I'll go see him. Is it ok if I use your fireplace?" He asked as he turned towards it.
"Go ahead." She said before he disappeared.
"Mom I have something to show you." Nikki said once Remus was gone.
Daemon followed her into the basement and down the small hallway to the room where she, Sirius, Lily, James, Remus, and Lé Anna used to spend their nights together. She looked around the room and her eyes landed on the bed where Sirius would sleep. There on the bed was a big shabby black dog with pale blue soulful eyes.
"Dose he have to go?" Nikki asked quietly.
"No. Not tonight at least." She told her as she hugged the thin dog.

"Hello Remus." Professor Dumbledore said as he greeted him the Three Broomsticks. "How are you?"
"Hello Professor. I'm quite good. It was so long since I was here." He reminisced as he gazed around the restaurant when someone talking with Prof. McGonagall caught his eyes. She was still a vision of loveliness after all these years. Her hair seemed so light as the sunlight reflected off of it. Her eyes were a warm grey unlike Malfoy's. Her smile was the same as it was thirteen years ago. She looked the same as she did in school; it was almost like she drank from the fountain of youth and never would age.
"Let's get going Remus." Professor Dumbledore said as he put his arm around his shoulders and guided him out the door. But as he passed her she caught a glimpse of him out of the corner of her eye and gasped as he left. Remus seemed to feel himself melt away as he lost sight of Lé Anna after twelve years apart.

A/N: I'm so sorry that it took so long to get this up but I was away during March break, then my computer crashed, and I had a cheerleading competition (We lost.) Oh well, I hope that you all enjoyed it even though it was short.
Dani - I'm sorry that I didn't 'update!update!update!updat!update!' soon enough. Nikki is one of my characters, she's Sirius' and Daemon's little girl. Oh and I'm glad that I'm one of your regular stories that updates (though it took me a while this time)
Draco-luver - I'm afraid to say that he does believe that he did do that and sadly Daemon did not bite off Luscious' arm. (Though she did leave a nice scar)
Super Poet Gurl - You said that you will and I'm still waiting. I know that you have homework (we're in the same classes) but still, I'm growing impatient. PS. Glad that you liked it.
I would LOVE to dedicate this chapter to my friend Shondelle who lost her mom almost two week ago. We're all her for you hun.
