The Maruaders Saga part one
"The Orange Moon"
Disclaimer: I do not own any aspect of Harry Potter. I wish I owned Remus Lupin. TEEHEE (
Chapter 1:
It was a full moon. Remus' least favorite time of the month. He didn't hate it so much anymore because he had three great friends who stuck by him. But, he still wished it were the new moon instead.
He was sitting in the empty common room with James Potter and Sirius Black. His two best friends. His third, Peter Pettigrew, was missing. Again. Ever since he had met Lucius Malfoy, a boy in Slytherin, he had been absent from hanging out with them.
The three were reading. Now, normally, this would be a normal ritual, but there was something different this time. Remus could feel it. He looked at the clock. Ten fifteen. Forty-five minutes until they would set off towards the Whomping Willow. Next, Remus looked out the window for the umpteenth time since nightfall. The moon was still orange but covered slightly by some clouds.
"Is it still orange?" Sirius asked without looking up from his book.
"Yep."
"What did you say happened last time it was orange?" James asked, trying to sound like he didn't care, and not succeeding.
"My parents told me I pulled up five trees."
"Roots and all?"
"Roots and all."
James and Sirius winced.
"Well, wouldn't it be nice to have more reinforcements? Where is Peter?" James fumed.
"Probably with his new friends. Malfoy and Snape!"
"Oh, come on, Sirius, give him the benefit of the doubt."
"He doesn't deserve it!"
As those two argued, Remus thought. He thought about what his parents had said. He thought about being locked up in a shack with his two best friends while he was feeling rather murderous. He decided that if James and Sirius happened to drift off to sleep, he would not wake them up. He would rather go to the shack himself so they didn't get hurt.
Sure enough, James and Sirius, who had eaten a large dinner, fell asleep. Remus grabbed James' invisibility cloak, and started downstairs. He crept across the grounds to the Whomping Willow.
The next part was rather tricky without Peter. He needed to hit the knot at the base of the tree to get it to stop moving. He crawled under the thrashing branches. It looked like he was going to make it to the knot when a branch came out of nowhere and rammed him backward, into the Forbidden Forest. He lay there, stunned, when the clouds shifted. He was bathed in moonlight and he began to transform.
A/N: hope ya like it so far. Review and let me know!!!!
