Fish: We are sorry for the relative shortness of the last chapter.
Nez: Yep. Hey, guess what, I found Adam-sama!
-a boy dressed in all black, carrying a skateboard and listening to hard metal/rock through headphones walks in-
Adam: -growls- Hey.
Nez: ADAM-SAMA!!!! –huggles Adam-
Adam: -growls- Get off. –punches Nez, who lets go and whimpers in return-
Fish: -holding back laughter- This is one of the people in your head? Kind of not well... you. –doubles over in laughter-
Nez: Yes he is! His lair is deep inside and he rarely comes out.
Adam: -monotone- Yes, I like to be morbid and recluse. Now leave me alone. –cranks up CD volume- -Trapt music blares-
Nez and Fish: -stares- Okaaaaay...
Zan: -on T.V. screen- -serious and official-like- I am Zanbato and I support this chapter of "Fish-chan and Nehszriah Meet the Maraurders." –American flag blowing in wind fades into screen-
Part Sixteen: The Interrogation
Remus sat alone in his bedroom, looking out the window at the Forbidden Forest. He held in his hand, a framed picture of Nehszriah, which would every so often, smile, give a V-for-victory and wink. As he slowly turned his attention to the picture, the frame began to glow and shake. Remus dropped it just in time, for Nehszriah's younger brother, Zanbato, to emerge from it.
"Good afternoon," the gangly America said. He seemed to have more of a serious air to him than before, which particularly bothered the werewolf.
"Hello. How, may I ask, did you get here? Did your sister explain portkeys to you or something?" Remus smiled. He had hoped this would lighten the mood a bit... but it didn't.
"I have acquired information that has led me to believe that you are, in fact, my sister's boyfriend. Is this claim legitimate?"
One person popped in his mind that could have possibly squealed on them.
"Sirius," he growled.
"As well as Fish-chan. Tsuki was also easy to bribe one I pulled out the Mocha Latte."
"What do you want!?"
"It is simple," Zanbato said, as if he were reciting a script. "I only wish to lay out the ground rules for the two of you to abide by, that's all."
"...but isn't your dad...?"
"He is at work. I am the oldest brother and therefore, it is my responsibility."
Remus sighed at the fact that he was going to get a lecture from someone who wasn't even born yet.
"Rule One! Don't attempt to 'get it on' with her, for you two are not married and she's wearing her chastity belt, which only our dad had the key for."
"Chastity belt?"
Zanbato knocked on his own hip, which gave off a metallic chime.
"I've been given one too, just incase. It keeps one from having..."
"I get it! I get it! Just go on!" Remus panicked.
"Rule Two! You... uhh... AH SHIT! I forgot!" He smacked his head against the wall a couple of times and made a depressive and dramatic slump onto the nearby bed. "This was so much easier with the mirror."
The werewolf smiled slightly and sat down next to him. "Did it have anything to do with Fuf being my alter-ego?"
"No."
"Still, I have morals, whether it is apparent or not."
"I didn't answer your question."
Remus was taken aback by this comment.
"What question?" he asked.
"How I got here," Zanbato answered. "Nehszriah probably doesn't know this, but I am a very powerful wizard, ahead of most of my class by weeks or even months. I turned that picture frame into a portkey of sorts, one that only I can use. Because it was my sister's I thought it would lead to you eventually."
"Well, you were right," Remus answered. He never would have thought that Nehszriah's brother would care so much for her. "You know Zanbato, we don't have to be enemies."
"We don't?" the flustered teen said. "That's cool. Here, can you give me that?" He pointed to the picture, which Remus immediately gave to him. "Furise hotin Remus Lupin."
"What was that for?" Remus asked.
"You can now use this portkey, that is, when you wish. It's just an easy spell modification."
"But that was cool," Remus admitted. Zanbato blushed.
"Thanks. I can teach it to you if you want," Zanbato said, quite please with himself.
"Alright, but here," Remus said. He went into his nightstand drawer and pulled out a small fountain pen and handed it to Zanbato.
"What is this for?" Zanbato asked, very confuzzled.
"It's a way to write me. Write your letter on ordinary parchment and when you fold it up, write my name and yours on it and it shall go straight to me."
"You here?"
"Yes, the future me would make sure of that if he ever gets it. Trust me."
So, Remus and Zanbato went on for hours, teaching each other new spells and tricks. They also learned that they had a lot in common besides Nehszriah. When Zanbato finally had to back to his own time, he had learned all sorts of tricks to pull on his Wizarding History teacher, Mrs. Johns and Remus had acquired some new, futuristic tricks of his own.
Nez: -pops up with socks on hands and ears, with a Gollum plushie on head- Gollumrox rox my sox!
Fish: -scared- Umm... Nez...? –shifts away- Is this "Gollumrox" the origin of that "Chastity belt" thing? –shifts further-
Nez: -too busy playing with the socks to notice-
Adam: Yes. Gollumrox wrote a really long "Pirates of the Caribbean" spoof that did not go with the story line at all and Nez here loved it.
Nez: -shakes head violently- Uh-huh! -goes back to socks-
Fish: Alright. –shifts even further-
Nez: You have one too Fish! –knocks on Fish's side, which produces metallic clang-
Fish: Ah, crap.
Adam: Heh. Sucker. –laughs slowly with a maniacal sound to it-
Review Reply!
Fuf- Don't blame me for my Writer's Block. He also brought his cousins Layout Block and Block Party. Yeah... that was sort of what kept me from writing, except it was a graduation party.
Fish- You just told me that five hours ago on the phone.
Everyone else- I have chapter seventeen typed and eighteen is being worked on as you read (spiffy, huh?). Don't slam on me if I don't update in a few days... trust me, this is hard stuff. This is stuff you could write fanfics on! All right, toodles! Sayonara! Gute Nacht and all that good junk!
