He Wasn't The Last
Chapter 7
A/N: Yes, I know, it's been a REALY long time! But I've finally got off my lazy butt and wrote another chapter. Ha ha ha. Well, hope you all like this chapter as much as the others. Happy now Brynn? LoL!! Don't forget to review!!
Disclaimer: Evil me: I own Harry Potter! Yes it all belongs to me!! Muwhahaha! Normal me: No it doesn't! It belongs to J. K. Rowling stupid. Evil me: No it doesn't! Harry's mine! All mine! Normal me: Would you knock it off? You're being dumb. You could get sued for that. Evil me: If they want to sue me, they'll have to catch me! He he he! Normal me: But if you run away, I can tell them where you are, since you and I both share the same brain. Evil me: Crap...
"They don't understand, they will never understand! I can't believe how dumb they're all being! Do they really want to send all of those kids to their death?" Remus muttered, as he paced back and forth. The trees were quiet, and no bird was singing. Fog was slowly creeping in, and sent a chill down his spine. The clearing had been grown in since he was last there, which had been over 30 years ago.
"Even Dumbledore is against me! I can't believe this! Why did you have to go and leave me!? Sirius you damn fool! Why did you leave me here all alone!? He screamed to the sky, falling on his knees, and wiping away the only tear on his cheek.
"Sirius didn't leave you here with no one, how could you say that Remus?" Tonks replied, as she appeared next to him.
"How did you find me?" he whispered to her.
"Remus, we were all best friends in school, do you really think the four of you could keep this place a secret from me?" Tonks asked, kneeling down in front of him. Her eyes had changed color, to a bright blue with tints of green. Her hair was now long, black and wavy, and highlighted her eyes even more as shorter strands fell around face. She looked absolutely stunning.
"You followed us," Remus stated. "So you know that...."
"That you let Sirius cheat off your papers in class sometimes, and that James wet the bed until he was 8? Of course," she laughed. Her voice was kind and gentle in that moment. Not angry or concerned, and seeing her laugh put a smile on Remus's face.
"Tonks, why did you follow me?" Remus asked.
"Well, I was Sirius's girlfriend, and I didn't like it that you would all of a sudden just leave during weekends..."
"No, why did you follow me here now?"
"Because Remus, you are not as alone as you think you are. There are people who still care about you. Dumbledore cares about you, and what about Harry? You are the only father figure he has left. And if it helps, I still care about you. I always have," she whispered, holding Remus's face in her hands. For a few moments, his darker, grey eyes met her. It was as if time itself had stopped. And with out warning, Remus leaned in, and kissed her lips.
"Remus, I...I can't it's too soon." Tonks said softly turning away, breaking the kiss.
"Tonks, I'm sorry. I'm so sorry, I shouldn't of...I," he stammered.
"Shh," Tonks said, putting her hand on his. "It's alright. I just can't do this right now O.K.? Sirius died less than a month ago, and with the baby, I'm not sure this is the right time."
"I understand," he replied, looking at the ground.
"Remus, there's something you must understand. I know you feel alone, I know you yearn to have someone on your side. But this is the only way. Whether we like it or not, Dumbledore is right. There are more kids like Harry who won't go down without a fight, who want to seek revenge. And those who don't will most likely follow anyways. Remus, we need all the help we can get. Voldemort has more followers than we have allies, so when a chance like this roles around, we need to take it. You'll see. It'll all work out in the end. It will be O.K." she whispered, laying her head on his shoulder.
"But they're too young. They won't be able to match Voldemort's Army. They're all going to die Tonks," he said.
"If we do nothing they will be destroyed anyways. Wouldn't you rather have them die with honor defending they're lives? Or would you have them be hunted down, and tortured by one of Voldemort's henchmen?"
"No, no I don't want that."
"Remus, you have to have a little hope. You have to learn that not everything is as bad as they seem. You have to learn that even when things are bad, there will always be some good fighting back." She said calmly. Just then, in the midst of all the cold and fog, a butterfly appeared. It landed on the tip of Tonk's finger. She held it up against the dreary back round; its bright yellow and green wings brought a sense of light in the darkness.
"See Remus? This is hope."
