June 17, 2004
James, Lily, Remus, Peter, and Marie all sat together in the front row of the order meeting in Hogwart's Great Hall.
"As you all know Sirius Black went missing today. Our inside informant has told us he has been tortured since he arrived there. He has refused to tell them anything on the were a bouts of Lily, James and Harry Potter of course." Dumbledore said in the crowded Great Hall.
"But where is he Albus?" James asked frantically standing up.
"We've got to get him back." Lily said in the same worried and frantic tone as her husband as she stood up beside him holding the baby Harry.
"We have all ready freed our dear Sirius from his captivity. He was supposed to come straight here. But like usual he has chosen to disobey and only he knows where he's gone. Figured I'd give him the proper chance you see." Dumbledore said and laughed lightly.
"I know where he went…" Remus mumbled as he smiled brightly holding up Sirius' wand. "He's gone looking for this…" He said and laughed again.
"That figures the git, he should know we'd have it…" Marie said and grabbed the wand and put in back in her lap and stared at Remus like he was a nutter.
"Oy where in bloody hell is it?" Sirius asked him self as he looked around in his and Remus' flat. He had been looking for what seemed like hours.
Remus or Marie must have it… Sirius thought annoyed but he smiled at the thought of seeing his Marie again.
"Now we just have to get Remus married. Well there is that Cathy girl we went to Hogwarts with…He seemed to like her." Sirius said then disappeared with a pop.
Sirius appeared at the Shrieking Shack to find it dark and very hard to see. "Stupid wand I can't see anything two feet in front of me…" he mumbled angrily.
"Ouch…My foot…" Sirius said after walking into something. "This is ridiculous…" He said trying to feel his way to the tunnel, which would be just as dark undoubtedly.
Sirius finally made it to the tunnel and onto the Hogwarts Grounds. Oh goodie the bloody tree… He thought then sighed as he climbed out of the tunnel then just ran for it out of the Tree's way.
"Ah Black…Get off…" Snape said annoyed after Sirius had ran into him and knocked them both over.
"Not like I want to be on you…that bloody tree's a menace with out a wand…" Sirius said as he stood up and dusted his cloths off.
"And what happened to Wormtails wand might I ask?" Snape asked as he stood up dusting his robes off as well.
"Threw that bloody thing in the trash at my place thinking my wand was still there…" Sirius said and shrugged lightly as he turned to go into Hogwarts Castle.
"Bloody brilliant you bafoon." Snape said and rolled his eyes at Sirius as they both walked into the castle.
"No one asked you. Marie or Remus has my wand…" Sirius said angrily then smiled once they walked into the School and he caught sight of Marie talking to some one. "Marie…" He said then started towards her around all the other people.
Marie turned away from talking to Remus when she heard her name called. "Sirius!" She said smiling brightly as she ran around James and the others right up to Sirius and hugged him. "You all right?" She asked curiously.
Sirius wrapped his arms around her waist pulling her closer to him as he put his head on her shoulder and his nose nuzzling her neck lightly. "Yes I'm fine." He said and hugged her closer to him self.
"Marie share why don't you." James said and laughed as they both looked at him like he was crazy then started to laugh too.
"You're an all out nutter James Potter." Marie said as she moved over beside Sirius and smiled. "I don't share." She said then laughed again.
"How'd you get out Sirius?" Remus asked curiously as he stood on one side of James with Lily and Harry on the other side.
"Quite easily…" Sirius said then died off at seeing Peter hiding behind James. "How dare you be here!!" He yelled as he shoved James out of his way and punched Peter across the face. "If I had my bloody wand you damn traitor!" He said and slammed Peter up against a wall.
"S-Sirius… James help… He's gone mad…" Peter said frightened.
"Don't you dare talk to James you little bastard! Gone bloody mad have I! We'll see how much you're laughing now you git! You have no wand either! Do you?" Sirius said angrily. "Your master's not going to be happy with you! You should have know had Voldemort not killed you one of us would!" He yelled angrily.
"Sirius…" Dumbledore said trying to calm him down.
"Don't Dumbledore!" Sirius said angrily. "You dare to laugh at me and make suggestions about my fiancee being their secret keeper knowing damn well I was! If one hair on her head ever gets touched I'll kill you with my bear hands!" He said slamming Peter against the wall again to keep his attention.
"Sirius calm down and tell us what you're on about…" James said confused as he watched Sirius glaring at their long time friend.
"If you or that master of yours gets near Harry I'll kill you anyway! You understand me Peter!" Sirius yelled again.
"Harry! What in bloody hell are you on about Sirius!" James said angrily and walked forward beside Sirius to get his attention.
"Voldemort's not after you and Lily. He's after Harry and this little bastard betrayed us by going to Voldemort's side. Him and 6 or 7 death eaters are who attacked me and took me to Voldemort to get to Harry!" Sirius explained not taking his eyes off Peter who was trying to get away from Sirius.
"You bloody bastard that's my son!" James said angrily as he hit Peter as hard as he could knocking him out of Sirius' grip and to the floor. "I'll kill him now!" He said picking Peter up and slamming him into another wall. "You want my son you'll go threw me first!"
"That's enough!" Dumbledore yelled at the three former friends.
"No not nearly enough Albus!" James said glaring at Peter. "Why do you think Peter there were two people living with Sirius? So we would know if he had gone missing. If none of the three talked to us in a day we knew something was wrong and we needed out. That was part of the plan we never told you about!" He said angrily shoving Peter back into the wall.
"I said that's enough!" Dumbledore said angrily as he watched the James with Peter.
"Let them go after him head master." Snape said and smiled as he watched Sirius and James going after Peter. "What has been said is true. Pettigrew is on Voldemort's side unless you know otherwise headmaster." He said and laughed lightly.
"Why never say anything until now you bafoon. We could have stopped this long ago." A young woman said coming out of the crowed of Order members, her long sandy brown hair put up into a high ponytail with some of her bangs falling into her light blue eyes. "Or is it you could care less cause he was after a Potter?" She asked angrily then walked over to Lily and smiled down at Harry who was crying cause of all the angry yells. "James your son is crying. Peter can wait." She said in a soft tone.
James pulled Peter closer to him. "Don't you ever and I mean ever get near me or my family again!" He said angrily then shoved Peter back against the wall. He walked over and took Harry from Lily and smiled down at him.
"Come on Harry, every things fine…" James said in a fatherly tone as he rocked Harry and smiled as his crying stopped. "That's my little boy…" He said and smiled as he started to tickle him lightly.
James laughed when Harry yawned and grabbed his finger. Harry made a low murmur sound as he started to nibble at James' finger.
The young woman laughed lightly as she watched James and Harry. "I told you Lily." She said and laughed as she turned from them and walked over to Remus. "Hello Remus, long time no see." She said and smiled lightly.
"Cathy…" Remus said and smiled lightly as he looked at her then noticed that Sirius had abandoned Peter to go back over to Marie.
"Here Sirius." Marie said and handed him his wand back as Peter was being drug out of the Great hall.
"How are you Cathy?" Remus asked nervously as he looked back down at her slightly.
"Great, you?" Cathy said and smiled up at him as she glanced around at Lily and James who were playing with Harry.
"Good I thought you had moved to America Cathy…" Remus said slightly confused.
"I had. I'm an American Auror who joined forces with the Order of Phoenix here." Cathy said and smiled. "I heard you, Sirius, James, Lily and the baby Harry were marked by Voldemort and I got to first plane back. Didn't want to use a broom be to far to go and to easy to see in such a distance." She said and laughed lightly.
"A very smart moved by you Cathy Burk." Snape said snidely as he glanced around at every one.
"Not now Snape!" Remus said annoyed as he looked over at Sirius and Marie who seemed about as happy as James and Lily. "Well at least they're happy…" He said and sighed as he turned and started out of the Great Hall sadly.
Cathy looked around to see if anyone was going to go after him to see that no one had even seen him leave. She followed after Remus to find him out side staring up at the sky. It was the new moon so no one had to worry.
Cathy walked up beside Remus but didn't say anything as she looked up at the stars in the night sky.
Remus sighed lightly as he just stared up at the stars. "It's nice to just to look up at them…" He said sadly.
"Yes it is." Cathy said as she looked over at Remus and smiled sweetly. "It's nice to see you, Remus." She said placing one of her hands on his arm softly.
"Yeah, you too." Remus said and smiled lightly as he put his other hand on hers that was on his arm. He started to lean down closer to her with out realizing what he was doing as he stared into her eyes.
Cathy looked up into Remus' eyes as she raised her other hand to touch his cheek lightly.
Remus moved his hand from hers and put it up to brush against her cheek softly. "You're still so beautiful Cathy..." He said as his lips brushed against hers. He let one hand rest on the small of her back while the other moved to behind her neck lightly as he kissed her softly on the lips pulling her closer to him.
"Oy Remus…Never mind…Sorry…" Sirius said in his usual rowdy mischievous tone then slightly embarrassed he turned and walked quickly back into the school.
"I'm sorry!" Remus said pulling away from Cathy quickly and avoided her eyes. "I-I don't know what came over me…" He said embarrassed.
"Remus…" Cathy said in a comforting tone. "If I didn't want you to kiss me I would have backed away or shoved you." She said and smiled up at him as she let her hand brush against his cheek softly.
"I'm not who you think I am Cathy…I'm a…" Remus said sadly as he looked down at the ground away from her.
"A werewolf. I know have for quite some time." Cathy said and smiled up at him as she put her finger under his chin to make him look at her.
"You mean… You don't care… How'd you find out?" Remus said confused as he looked down at her.
"I've know since third year of school ourselves Remus." Cathy said and smiled up at him. "I noticed that you vanished once a month every year. So I got curious and it was always' on a full moon of course." She said as she looked up into his eyes.
"Why'd you never say anything?" Remus asked confused as he smiled lightly down at her.
"Easy I cared for you to much to hurt you like that. I never said anything until just now. Snape hinted to it several times until I threatened him, and he stopped." Cathy said and laughed lightly.
"I ment what I said before that you were still beautiful." Remus said embarrassed.
Cathy smiled brightly then noticed that James, Lily, Sirius, and Marie were watching them and laughed lightly as she looked back up at Remus. She made him look at her as she put her hand behind his head lightly and pulled him down to kiss him softly on the lips.
Remus wrapped his arms around her waist and pulled her closer to him. "Would you be willing to give us a shot? I mean as more then friends…" He asked curiously when the kiss broke and he looked into her eyes hopeful.
"Of course Remus." Cathy said and laughed when their audience started cheering and jumping around happily.
Remus blushed a bright red as he smiled over at his friends and shook his head at them.
