The Forbidden Forest was dark and scary, I held onto her wand tightly. I was serving my detention with Hagrid and Sirius, Hagrid went one way to and Sirius and I stayed to the path.

"It's called the Forbidden Forest for a reason!" I said while i almost stumbled over a rock on the path.

"You're not scared are you?" He asked her. I looked at him with a 'yeah right' expression on my face.

"I'm not scared. I was just commenting." I said, i wasnt going to act scared in front of this git. Git, it was my new word, I learned what it meant earlier today, Lily had told me.

"Yah know, i just learned what Git means today." I said. He looked at me like was crazy. Then i felt like i wqas crazy, i heard a howl. A wolf, or a werewolf, i had dreams about werewolves. I tensed up immediately, i also noticed that Sirius did the same. We heard the same howl, yet closer. It was getting closer. I gripped my wand tighter. Sirius put his arm around me and pulled me close.

"What are you doing?" I asked. He loosened his grip a bit.

"I was the one who got scared." He said still looking around. Then I heard galloping, and a snap of a twig. I started to shake. What if soemthing came out and tried to kill us? Then out of the corner of my eye, i saw it. A werewolf coming straight at us. I freaked. Sirius turned into a big shaggy black dog. I quickly pulled out my wand and stunned the werewolf. A stag appeared right next to it. I started to run, I ran and i ran and i ran. Until i finally bumped into Hagrid. I landed on the forest floor with a Oof.

"Whatcha doin?" He asked me. I looked up with pure terror on my face. He was going to bite me! i was going to die a moment before, or worse, be cursed. Sirisu appeared behind me panting.

"What happened?" Hagrid asked accusingly. I looked to Sirius and my eyes got big, a moment before he was a big black shaggy dog, He turned into an animal, Maybe thats what I WANTED to see. So My eyes played a trick on me.

"A wolf almost attacked us." Sirius said boaring into my eyes, he was trying to tell me not to tell. I knew what that look was.

"Ok, well, i think that is enough for tonight. Ashleigh do you need to see the nurse?" He asked helping me up. His hands were huge i shook my head no meekly and i left. I just walked as fast as i could. Sirius caught up with me.

"Ashleigh! Ash!" He yelled out to me, i wouldnt solw down though. I wouldnt. He finally caught up with me and pulled me around to face him. I could see panic in his eyes, i was scared. Who was this guy and what did he want?

"Ashleigh, listen to me." He said softly to me. I was listening. I wanted to know the truth, i couldnt help it if i NEEDED to know the truth all the time. It was a flaw of mine. I couldnt leave something alone with out knowing the truth.

"Ok." I said standing there looking at him accusingly.

"So you will talk? Ok, fine ummmm, what you saw.... isnt what you think it is." Sirius said. He was obviously struggling.

"Oh?" I asked.

"Yeha, um.... what did you see?" He asked her nervously.

"It's more like, what was that? What did you do and how?" Ashleigh asked him.

"Ok, that was a werewolf.... and i am an anamagius." Sirius said looking into my eyes, trying to find what he was not goinng to find, panic, confusion.

"Anamagius?" I asked him. Wasnt that illegal? Was he a registered Anamigius?

"Yeah, and I was just trying to protect you... i swear." He said. I looked him in his eyes, he was telling the truth. But where did that werewolf come from? I wondered about the whole night while going up to my Dorm. I had my dirty clothes on my bed. two outfits needed to be cleaned. I picked up the pants i wore on the train. I searched my pokets and found the letter my dad gave me, i was going to read it on the train but forgot about it. I usually get easily distracted. The dorm was quiet, no one else was in there. I was alone, i hated being alone. I opened the letter.

Ashleigh, Look, I know that you dont want to go to this school and i know that you didnt want to move to England, I'm sorry but this is what it is, you need to except that. You made some bad choices in your life and that is going to affect you all though out your life. I know, you dont want to hear this but you have to. I am your father and I love you and will not leave you. Ok, no matter what i will be here for you. If you need to talk just owl me and i will owl right back, i promise. I love you sweetheart, stay out of trouble.

P.S. If you need help in anything, physical or mental go to DUmbledore. Ask him, he will help you.

Tears spilled down my cheeks, i needed sleep today. I opened my trunk, i look through everything and i found my sleeping pills. I needed sleep. I pulled out my CD player and my CD's, i tried to turn it on but it wouldnt work. I kept pushing the button, it worked perfectly at home, what was going on? These were new batteries. Lily walked in and spotted me.

"Hey, whatcha doin?" She asked me.

"Trying to get this to work." I sad still pushing the button.

"Oh.... Um, electronics dont work on Hogwarts grounds." Lily said. I looked at her, how was i supposed to make this work without power? She had to leave to get her homework and take a shower, leaving me all alone. I did the math and calculated all the possible out comes of all the spells I could use to make my CD player work. It took me an hour to get it right, i almost blew my CD player up and i turned it into a frog on accident. But i successfully got it to run on magic. Which was great, because i popped my Less Than Jake CD in and started to drift to the music.

Ashleigh was in the woods, the werewolf was heading straight for her! Sirisu jumped in the way and it was Remus who was jumping toward them with teeth bared. Then he turned into Conner, and Conner hit Sirius. "COnner!" Ashleigh yelled, she hugged him. He held her, she felt his arms encircle her. She felt safe. "Ashleigh..." He whispered into her ear. He wiped the tears from her eyes. "Conner, you left me, you promised you wouldnt and you did." Ashleigh said she was on the verge of hysterics. "Ash.... Baby, listen to me... I was murdered, your dreams they are real.... everyone is real..." He whispered to her, she could only catch fragments of what he was saying. "Conner, what are you talking about? they are only nightmares." Ashleigh said, her voice was full of doubt. A lot of doubt. "Baby, listen to your.... he....heart." He said... he was slowly disappearing. She ran after him wildly but he was going to fast or seh was going to slow.
