AN: Sorry for not updating sooner, I was busy with school. On another note,
Anisia is *NOT* a Mary-Sue, I actually found a website where you answer all
these questions and you get *points* for each "yes" and my character only
got 11 out of possibly around 83 points, so I don't think there's anything
wrong with that.
If anyone wants to go to that website, it has some links to other sites that have stuff about Mary-Sues as well and the sites it links to also has stuff about writing fanfiction.
Here's the site:

Chapter 4: Never Forget
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Anisia was deeply depressed by what had happened to Sirius, she was afraid to contact Sirius after what he was accused of, and advised not to do so by Lupin as well. Someone could have stumbled upon the communication between Sirius and Anisia and Anisia could have been accused of being an accomplice to the crimes Sirius was wrongly accused of.
As the years passed Anisia was forced to stay out of any contact with Sirius and forced to hide her pain of a love lost. After 12 years of being separated from Sirius, Anisia's love for him still had not faded, though she knew that it was a hopeless love, and that loss still ached in her heart everyday, even when she was in the comforting presence of friends like Dumbledore and Lupin.
"Hello Remus, how are things in this sector of the Ministry?" The Minister of Magic asked, walking up on Lupin as he sat, hard at work at his desk in his little cubicle. Lupin turned to the Minister, standing up quickly.
"Minister, I didn't know you were coming." Lupin said his voice smooth and calm, as if he had known the Minister was going to come, Anisia had conveniently forgotten to tell him again. Lupin glanced quickly over at Anisia who was standing just a little behind and to the side of the Minister.
"That's alright; I just wanted to see how the investigations on the recent rumors of You-Know-Who coming were going." The Minister said as he shook Lupin's hand. Lupin gave the Minister a hopeful, but small, smile.
"The investigations are going as expected, Minister, I believe Mr. Fyrehart can fill you in on more information, as you can see, I'm extremely busy with filling out some mandatory forms." Lupin explained, bowing slightly to Minister. The Minister smiled a little disappointed, but nodded and went to speak with the one called "Fyrehart".
"Hello Anisia." Lupin greeted Anisia; she turned her attention to him.
"Hello Lupin, I haven't talked with you in a long time." Of course, Anisia meant on a personal level, lately she had been speaking more with Lupin about business than she ever had before, but that was just because of the recent return of Voldemort, the two of them were the few that believed that he was truly back.
"Yes, I know. I was just wondering if." Lupin stepped closer to Anisia, his eyes glowing in a strange way that Anisia had rarely seen in the man's eyes. He smiled at her warmly as she looked into his eyes.
Someone cleared their throat and started to speak: "We have much work to do today Miss Devilen." It was the Minister. Anisia turned to the Minister, her hair swirling around her face as she did so, she was smiling at him.
"Yes, Minister, I was just speaking with Mr. Lupin about the current investigations before he went back to his paper work." Anisia said, putting on her formal act. With that, Anisia and the Minister said their good-byes and left.
*~*~*~*~*The End of the Day*~*~*~*~*
Anisia stepped into the elevator, she pressed the button for her floor; she was the only thing in the elevator. She closed her eyes as it moved down, concentrating on the clanking of the carriage. It suddenly stopped and the doors cranked open, Lupin stepped in, his head down, a few stray papers in his hands. He looked up curiously to see Anisia.
"Well, we meet again Lupin." Anisia greeted him, smiling widely, Lupin smiled back.
"And hello to you too Anisia." Lupin greeted, giving her a sly grin and stuffing the papers messily into his robes. Anisia raised an eyebrow at him.
"Tough day?" She asked. He nodded.
"Horrible day, I had so much paperwork, I'm horrible at filling out mounds and mounds of paper." Anisia nodded in agreement, she hated paper work as well, but then again, that was almost all she did nowadays.
"I had a horrible day as well; I didn't have as much paperwork today, but I had to listen to more whining from the Minister and everyone else, it's horrible, you'd think they'd actually solve the problems instead of just whine about them." Anisia said, she and Lupin both chuckled softly.
"You would think so," Lupin said, still smiling. The two stood there as the elevator continued to move down as Anisia and Lupin stood in silence.
"Um. do you. want to--" The doors to the elevator clanked open and a sea of people bombarded the two ministry workers. Lupin and Anisia struggled their way through and when Lupin could see anything, Anisia was already at the security gate. Lupin sighed, he felt as if he'd never have more than five minutes alone with his old friend.
*~*~*~*~*One Year Later*~*~*~*~*
"Is it true?" A female voice asked almost excitedly.
"Yes, it's true." A smooth, deep male voice replied.
"When can I see him?" The female voice spoke once again, her voice rising a bit.
"No, you can't Anisia, for one, I haven't been told where he is and two, you might be caught with him, or looking for him, do you know what could happen?" The male voice explained, a little worry rising above all other emotion. Anisia pushed against him anxiously.
"It's been thirteen years Moony! Thirteen! Can't you understand that? I would assume the first thing he'd think to do would be to come to me!" Anisia practically pleaded with Lupin, her body still pressed against his. Lupin held her shoulders so she wouldn't try to leave without him finishing.
"Shhh. if someone heard you calling me that, we'd get into some horrendous trouble! Of course Sirius would think to come directly to you, but if he actually thought it over more, he'd know to go somewhere else; they'd probably assume he'd go to you!" Lupin explained hurriedly, trying not to raise his voice above more than just a whisper.
"Oh Moony! What ever am I going to do? I've waited for so many years, and I can't even see him?" Anisia cried, collapsing onto Lupin's chest, he wrapped his arms around her as she cried.
This was the first time Lupin had ever seen Anisia cry, he knew though, that she had cried many a time since Sirius had been taken away from her. He almost felt happy that she would come to him for something like this, but he also felt a little jealousy panging away at the back of his consciousness, jealousy over what Sirius had and he didn't: Anisia.
"Don't worry Key. as soon as I find out anything, you'll be the first to know." Lupin whispered a little hoarsely into Anisia's ear as she continued to sob into his chest.
After only a few days of waiting, Anisia finally decided to visit Dumbledore, he always knew what to do, and she realized that Sirius recognized that as well. She knew that Lupin would probably get angry with her, but she didn't care much, he would eventually understand and get over it.
*~*~*~*~*At Hogwarts*~*~*~*~*
"Please Dumbledore, I must speak with Sirius!" Anisia pleaded with old head master of Hogwarts. Dumbledore looked down upon Anisia through his half-moon glasses, studying her carefully before he spoke.
"Ah, young Key, your time to talk with Sirius will come soon." Dumbledore explained calmly, walking around his desk to Anisia and putting his hands on her shoulders.
"You know where he is! I want to see him!" Anisia called out angrily, pulling away from Dumbledore abruptly, tears streaming down her face.
"Please, Anisia. you must understand, it is still too dangerous to allow anyone to know where Sirius is." Dumbledore said, stepping a little closer to Anisia.
"I can't even give him a letter? Or pass a message on to him some other way?!" Anisia asked angrily, taking two steps back. Dumbledore shook his head sadly.
"No, I'm sorry; I don't want him to be tempted to come out into the open, even if it would be just to see you." Dumbledore said calmly, trying to make Anisia understand.
"You don't trust me, do you?" Anisia asked, her voice suddenly very quiet, almost less than a whisper; the tears were still there, falling from her cheeks to hit the floor.
"I trust you, fully, but things do change. Please, go home, take a few days off from work and rest, you should think about all that is happening." Dumbledore said Anisia nodded slowly, wiping the still-wet tears from her face. She and Dumbledore said their good-byes and she left down the rotating staircase.
"My dear Key. I fear that your heart will be broken once again." Dumbledore mumbled sadly as he watched Anisia leave.
Anisia paused for a moment between the entrance to the great hall, and the exit from the school she once attended. She looked back at the great hall, remembering all the great memories she had made here with everyone else. Anisia sighed, turning back to leave but was stopped by a voice.
"Hello Anisia." Anisia turned to the voice.
"Well if it isn't little ol' Snape!" Anisia smiled, her mood was lightened a little bit by seeing this old acquaintance.
"Hmm. Yes, how long has it been, Anisia?" Snape asked, looking almost genuinely interested.
"I don't know, at least. 13 years, Snape." Anisia replied, almost like she was in a dreamlike state, still smiling warmly at Snape as if they had actually been friends in school.
"It's. very good to see you again Anisia. Would you like to. come to my office and catch up?" Snape asked timidly, Anisia could almost swear that he was blushing. She shook her head.
"I'm very sorry Snape, you know I do have a job with the Ministry, and I must be going now. I'm sure we will see each other again soon though." Anisia said her good-byes to her old classmate and left. Snape stood there for a few seconds, dazed and confused.
Anisia didn't take any time off of work, she didn't want to make anything seem wrong, and she didn't want Lupin to worry about her anymore than he already was, though she did stop and think, often, about what was happening in the world. Had Voldemort really come back? What was going to happen. now?
