CHAPTER THREE
The next morning, Remus Lupin walked down the stairs leading up to the bedrooms. Sirius was still sleeping, as was Harry. Remus peeked in the living room at Harry as he was heading toward the kitchen to get breakfast ready. What he saw made him grin. Some of Harry's blankets were thrown to the floor and the rest were tangled up in his arms and legs. Remus walked carefully over to him, trying not to wake him up. He tried to fix the tangled blankets but it would be too risky not to wake Harry. Instead, he picked the rest up from the floor and spread them on Harry. He then headed into the kitchen to get the bacon ready. He had already laid some into the frying pan when Sirius came down the stairs and into the kitchen still looking tired from sleep. He sat down at the kitchen table with his head in his arms.
"Morning," Remus said cheerfully.
Sirius just grunted and didn't say anything.
"What's the matter with you? I thought you'd be happy with Harry here. Didn't you sleep last night?"
Sirius groaned and lifted his head. He spoke in a raspy voice. "I am happy that Harry is here but I was up all night wondering about everything. I know when Dumbledore finds out that he's here; he's not going to let him stay. And now that Harry is here, I have to leave again on that mission for Dumbledore like I was going to last night. I'm also really worried. In a way he's safer here because he's away from his uncle. But he's safer at the Dursley's because he's protected from Voldemort. I'm so confused!" Sirius finished in a rage.
"We'll figure out what to do soon. For now, why don't you wake Harry up for breakfast? It's nearly ready."
Sirius got up from the table and went into the living room where Harry was sleeping. He smiled sadly at the peaceful boy, almost sorry to disturb him. 'Oh well, might as well make this fun,' he thought.
Sirius transformed into Snuffles and shifted the bottom of the blankets with his nose. He found his target of Harry's feet and ran his cold, wet nose on them causing Harry to wake up screaming. Still shocked, his feet got tangled in the blankets and he crashed to the floor. This caused Sirius to burst out laughing. Remus heard the commotion from the kitchen and walked into the living room. He too, burst out laughing.
"What did you do that for?" Harry asked over the laughing as he massaged his sores under his shirt.
"Just wanted to have a little fun with you before you go," Sirius exclaimed.
Harry felt his heart stop. He was leaving? He thought he would be able to stay here for the rest of the summer. Surely Sirius and Remus wouldn't send him back to his aunt and uncles? He sat there on the floor, looking confused and sad. Remus noticed this and helped Harry up.
"What's the matter, Harry?" Remus said as they sat down on the couch. Sirius stopped laughing and plunked down next to Harry. He flung his arm around his shoulders and waited for him to answer Remus' question.
"Y-you're sending me back th-there?"
"Back where, Harry?" Sirius asked.
"You know, my aunt and uncles," Harry explained warily.
"Oh, Harry, we wouldn't send you back there. Never! After what he did to you, you wouldn't be allowed to by anyone. And if anyone did, I'd give them a piece of my mind."
Harry knew Sirius would give them a piece of his mind, but being an escaped convict on the run from the ministry, he knew it would be kind of hard for him to tell anyone anything he wanted. Harry's thoughts were interrupted when Sirius changed the subject.
"You look worse than you did last night, Harry."
Harry knew he was talking about the marks on his face. He just blushed and looked at his knees. He didn't even look up when Sirius spoke to him.
"Harry, look at me."
Harry shifted his gaze to look into Sirius' midnight-blue eyes, which were currently full of concern.
"Don't worry about anything, Harry. Moony and I will get you fixed up," Sirius said and took out his wand. He signalled at Moony to do the same. They pulled them out of their robe pockets and got ready to perform healing charms on Harry. Harry winced back; afraid it was going to hurt. Sirius, however, noticed this. "Don't worry, Harry, it won't hurt one bit."
They began with the bruises on his face. They slowly muttered their healing charms and watched the bruises begin to disappear. Once they were done, Harry's face was almost back to normal, except a few marks that would have to heal on their own. Harry sighed in relief and was also glad they didn't ask him to take off his shirt because the bruises and cuts were even worse there. However, Remus seemed to be able to read minds. Either that, or he was just really smart and logic.
"Harry, did he beat you anywhere else?" Remus asked.
"Um.no," Harry answered nervously. He didn't want them to see under his shirt. He was afraid Sirius would freak out and get angry.
"You do realize that I don't believe you," Remus stated.
Harry sighed in defeat and took his shirt off. He heard them gasp softly. As expected, Sirius was furious.
"That fucking bastard!" He raged angrily.
"Sirius!" Remus said signalling at Harry, who was looking down at his knees again. The swearing probably reminded Harry of his uncle getting angry at him.
"Sorry, Har'," Sirius apologised.
"Its okay," mumbled Harry.
Suddenly Sirius stood up. He still had an angry look in his eyes. He grabbed Harry's right arm and dragged him to the fireplace. Harry was confused and tried to ask what he was doing but Sirius ignored him and took out his wand.
"Incendio!" He roared.
He then grabbed some floo powder and threw it into the flames. They turned emerald green and he stepped in, dragging Harry with him. Sirius was just about to yell his destination but Remus suddenly tossed Harry's shirt to them. Sirius waited while Harry quietly put it on and then wrapped one of his arms tightly around his middle.
"Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry!"
After the spinning was over they landed in the room of the Great Hall. It was the same one as last year at Hogwarts when Harry and the other champions got called for the Triwizard Tournament. A moment later Remus came out, having followed them. They each brushed soot and dust off their robes.
"Sirius, what are we doing here? You're going to get in trouble. You can't be seen!" Remus stated.
"I know that, Remus. We're going up to Dumbledore's office," Sirius said and transformed into a dog. He then grabbed the hem of Harry's sleeve and began leading him towards Dumbledore's office.
Remus followed along behind worried of what this was going to lead to. He knew what Sirius was like when he was angry and it definitely wasn't pretty. Remus also noticed that Harry looked scared and worried. Harry had also seen him angry and he probably didn't want Sirius yelling at Dumbledore. He knew Harry respected Dumbledore greatly.
They reached the gargoyle in front of the moving staircase and stopped. None of them knew the password. Harry started guessing random magical candies. Remus, remembering teaching two years ago, started to guess too.
"Ice Mice"
"Cockroach Cluster"
"Liquorice Wands"
"Sugar Quill"
"Bertie Bott's Every Flavour Beans"
"Acid Pops"
"Chocolate Frog"
"Jelly Slugs"
It jumped aside when Remus said Jelly Slugs. Together, they stood on the moving staircase and proceeded up. Remus knocked on the large wooden door and waited patiently for an answer. He noticed Harry was looking very nervous while gazing at the floor. Sirius was just staring into space with an angry glint still in his eyes. Several minutes later the door opened and to all their surprise, Snape answered. He looked battered, as if he'd gotten a few good knocks out of him. He didn't say anything and walked past them down the stairs. Harry and Remus exchanged confused glances; neither of them bothered to say anything to him.
"Come in!" A merry voice said from within the office. Harry, Sirius (still in dog form) and Remus walked in and sat down.
"Harry! What are you doing here? You're supposed to be at your uncle's house where you're safe!"
With those words, Sirius transformed back into human form and began shouting at Dumbledore.
"You think he's safe there? How could you even tell him that?! Not so noble now are you?"
Those words had hurt Dumbledore. Everyone called him the most wizard at least once (not counting Lucius Malfoy or any other like him), and Sirius especially looked up to him.
"I'm so sorry, Sirius," Dumbledore said, noticing You-you're right. I should have made sure his surroundings were safe. Again, I'm sorry."
By this time, Sirius had calmed down a bit. "I'm sorry too. I'm still a little angry with you, mostly the Dursleys. I understand you're preoccupied with Voldemort safety and all that shit."
"Speaking about that, how's the mission going?" Dumbledore asked.
"Oh, um, I haven't left yet. I was running down the street the night you told me to leave for Mrs. Figg's house when I ran into Harry on the side of the road. I took him back to Moony's and he said he ran away from his uncle's house because he abused him, the bastard. How could he even think of hurting a child? No human has the right to do that! I'll kill him myself! Then maybe my time in Azkaban would have been worth it," Sirius growled.
"Sirius, No!" Remus, Harry and Dumbledore shouted.
Sirius glared up at them.
"You are not to do anything rash, Sirius. Don't forget, you're still a convict," Dumbledore said in a demanding voice.
"Yeah, I know, its kind of hard not to forget," retorted Sirius.
"Sorry, Sirius. Now, let's forget about that and decide where young Mr. Potter should stay for the rest of the summer. We can make several arrangements. You could stay at The Burrow if it's all right with the Weasleys, or you can stay at Hogwarts but I'd tell you now, you'd be lonely."
Sirius butted in. "Can't he stay at Remus's? I'm there for him, and so is Moony. Once I'm back from rounding everybody up I'll be there with him. Its safe! I can make Wolfsbane potion for him when he transforms so he won't be dangerous!" Sirius continued babbling on but Dumbledore interrupted.
"I guess he could stay with you guys. I'd have to come by in a few days to put up safety wards around the house though. You can never be too careful."
Sirius was ecstatic. He jumped up, shook Dumbledore's hand and gave a cry of joy. He thanked Dumbledore for letting Harry stay with him and pulled Harry to his feet. Harry, who was sitting staring into space, got shook awake when Sirius grabbed him. He was finally happy this summer. Maybe, just maybe, this'll all turn out all right, Harry thought.
"Um, Albus, is Madam Pomfrey (spelling?) in? Harry still needs fixed up," Sirius asked.
"Yes, she should be. I think she's treating some patients who have been hurt in Voldemort attacks," Dumbledore responded.
"Thanks," Sirius said and transformed into the great black dog. Harry and Remus followed him through the door and through the deserted school to the hospital wing. Once there, they noticed almost every bed occupied with some unconscious people and some who had disconnected limbs that were lying on their bedside tables. The person closest to Harry was either sleeping or unconscious, Harry couldn't tell, and had half their arm off. Harry cringed at the sight and hoped nothing like that happened to him or anyone close to him.
"You again!" A high-pitched voice screeched. The voice belonged to Madam Pomfrey who was heading towards him, Remus and Snuffles. "It's the middle of summer; what are you doing here?"
Remus came to the rescue. "Please, Poppy, its not his fault. His uncle, um, attacked him. Siri - er - Snuffles and I came and rescued him," Remus lied. He didn't feel like explaining the whole story to her.
"Well, alright then. What's wrong with him?"
Remus beckoned Harry to take off his shirt and Harry obeyed. Pomfrey gasped and questioned Remus even more about how all this happened. Remus just told her he didn't know, as he wasn't there. She demanded the answer from Harry but he told her all lies too. She managed to fix all cuts and bruises and they were finally able to leave. They proceeded into the Great Hall in silence and into the room off the hall where they had arrived an hour earlier.
Snuffles looked around to make sure if nobody was around and turned back into human form. He grabbed some Floo Powder of the fireplace and put it into the dancing flames. They instantly turned emerald green.
Sirius stepped in and shouted 'Villa Lupus' and disappeared back to Remus's house.
Remus beckoned for Harry to step in and told him to say the same as Sirius.
Before Harry did, he questioned Remus. "What does 'Villa Lupus' mean, Professor?"
"Its Latin for 'Wolf House'. And before you say anything, yes, I know Latin," Remus answered seeing the look on Harry's face. Harry then said the words and disappeared into the flames. As he began to spin he took off his glasses so they wouldn't break like they have on other experiences. He slid out of the fireplace and onto the hearth. He nearly fell over but Sirius quickly caught him.
A second later Remus came out on the hearth keeping perfect balance, looking quite pleased with himself seeing Harry still in Sirius's arms. Sirius quickly let go of Harry.
"Well, now that you get to stay here for your birthday and the rest of the summer, you might as well make yourself at home," Sirius said.
"Um, Sirius, I sleep on the couch. Where do I put myself?"
"Oh, right. Well, um, we'll figure it out later. Now, let's get some lunch; I'm starving."
And with that, they proceeded into the kitchen to make ham and turkey sandwiches for lunch.
'This is gonna be the best summer of my life,' Harry thought happily as he ate his sandwich. 'I get to spend my birthday with two people that I love and probably not have to do any chores outside in the heat. Yes, this is definitely going to be the best.'
A/N Well, that wraps it up for Chapter Three. I know the ending is corny but I didn't know what else to write. Hopefully this chapter was longer than the others. I hate when I write I think it's so much but when I go back and look it's hardly any.
If you want me to respond with your reviews at the beginning of each new chapter, let me know and I'll consider it. Also, if I made any mistakes, please let me know and I'll fix it. Thanx.
Please Review! I love reading them. If you want to flame, make it constructive. If you'd rather e-mail me a review, feel free to. My e-mail is rainboz_gurl15@hotmail.com
