Chapter 16: Where's the Wolf?
Time seemed to be passing quickly for most people. It was already November and the Quidditch season had begun. Usually this cheered James up, but ever since the try-outs he had been dreading the game.
Not that James didn't love the game anymore; to him it was still the greatest thing in the world. However, the first game of the season happened to be Gryffindor versus Ravenclaw, and to think that he wasn't going to be participating in that match was too much for him to bear.
He walked with Sirius and Peter to the Quidditch Pitch for the game. Remus was once again visiting his mother. James figured out this was a lie already, he just couldn't figure out why he was lying to them.
They took a sit at the top of the Gryffindor section. They had a pretty good view of all the players from that high.
"Hello, and welcome to the first match of the season," Lee Carlson the commentator announced, "Today's match is Gryffindor versus Ravenclaw!"
There was a huge eruption of cheers and a lot of boos from the Slytherins.
"First with the Gryffindor team," Lee continued, ignoring all the boos, "we have, Wood, Morris, Smith, Waring (James gave a small grunt at this), Dukes, McCarthy, and Thomas!"
The Gryffindor and some Hufflepuff students cheered loudly.
"And then we have the Ravenclaw team," Lee said once the cheers, including from himself, began to drop down a notch. "And we have Chang, Gerum, Johnson, Davies, Bryant, Stevens, and Warren!"
This time the Ravenclaws and some of the Hufflepuffs were the ones cheering. The Slytherins however were booing them all.
"And they're off," Lee started with a voice that suggested that they were at some sort of horse race, "Morris passes to Waring who passes back to Morris who passes to Smith who passes it back to Waring who is aiming for the goal and SCORES! Gryffindor is in the lead 10 to 0."
There was an eruption of cheers from the Gryffindors, though James was scowling at the fact that Waring was suppose to be in the stands while he was the one scoring goals.
"Johnson has the Quaffle; he passes to Davies, YES! It's intercepted by Waring! Waring passes to Smith who passes back to Waring who SCORES!! 20-0 Gryffindor!"
There was another huge cheer from all of the Gryffindor supporters. The game played one for another hour and a half before the snitch was spotted. Gryffindor was in the lead, 120 to 70.
This should have been making James jump up and down with the rest of the Gryffindor fans, except for the fact that Waring was the one who made 60 of those 120 points. Even James had to admit that that was really good, 'Though,' he added to himself, 'I'm sure I could make much more!'
Wood and Chang were both getting closer to the snitch by the second. Every time Chang or Wood would get within a close range of the snitch they would be thrown off course by a bludger or the other seeker. Wood reached out, her fingers just inches away from the snitch, Chang right on her tail.
Wood lunged forward a bit and grasped the struggling snitch with her right hand. The stands exploded with cheers -the noise was deafening.
"AND WOOD CAUGHT THE SNITCH!!! GRYFFINDOR WINS!!!" Lee shouted into the magical microphone, which had almost been confiscated too many times to count by Professor McGonagall.
The next day was a Sunday so the three Marauders spent most of it running around pranking any students that they came by.
To their misfortune that was the day that they got to meet Sirius's cousin face to face. Bellatrix Black was walking down the corridor with Lestrange. She stopped at the sight of Sirius and sneered at him.
"Oh look, it's my ikie little cousin," she said, her voice babyish and mocking. "How is my little mudblood loving relative doing today?"
Sirius whipped out his wand but Bellatrix was too quick for him; she sent a curse his way before any of them could even blink. A great gash appeared across Sirius's left cheek. He was about to retaliate when McGonagall came around the corridor.
"WHAT DO YOU THINK YOU ARE DOING?" she shouted looking furious. Bellatrix tried to hide her wand but it was too late. "Detention! And twenty points from Gryffindor and Slytherin! Black, go to the Hospital Wing!"
The Marauders did as they were told and headed off to the Hospital Wing. Sirius didn't talk so James decided to start the conversation that he knew was about to erupt from Sirius's mouth.
"She sure knows a few curses for a first year!"
"What do you expect from a filthy Slytherin like her!?"
"Well, just thought I say so!" said James.
"Yeah, well according to mother dearest I should be acting like Bellatrix, not disgracing the bloody family name!"
The conversation didn't go very well from there, mostly Sirius saying some words that if McGonagall heard they would most likely have detention for a month.
It was a little bit of a relief that the finally managed to make it to the Hospital Wing. Madam Pomfrey came bustling over to them to take a look at Sirius's cut.
It was while she was telling Sirius that he had to be more careful that James decided to glance around the room. What he saw drove him into shock. Laying there on one of the beds unconscious and looking like he just came out of a war, was none other than their fellow Marauder, Remus.
When Sirius cheek was healed, he followed James's gaze and stood there too. He, however, was able to recover first.
"What's Remus doing here?" he asked Madam Pomfrey as she began to walk away, "I thought he went to his mother's?"
Madam Pomfrey stopped and looked at Sirius like he had three heads. Her eyes grew wide.
"You've been healed! Now go! And don't come back unless you're injured!" she said while forcing them towards the door.
They tried to protest, but she shut the door in their face. Sirius then looked at James and Peter.
"What was that about?" he asked them, confusion written all over his face.
They both shrugged. After standing there for a moment James finally spoke.
"You don't think that this is where Remus goes when he goes to visit his mother do you?"
"Dunno," Sirius replied, while Peter shrugged again.
"Why would he lie to us?" Peter asked.
"I have no idea, but I know that he wasn't going to visit his mother. I mean he says that every single month!" James said confused.
"Well, what's wrong with him then?" Peter asked.
"I dunno," Sirius said, "Every month he goes to visit his sick mum, then he always comes back looking like he died or something…"
"What could he possible be doing once a month?" Peter asked, his voice low while he tried to think.
They stood there for another long minute in silence before James finally broke it.
"Oh no!" he said his eyes wide in horror and understanding.
"What?" Sirius asked confused.
"Oh no," James repeated. Then he started to run down the corridor.
"What? Where are you going?" Sirius asked, while he and Peter ran after James.
"The library," James said shortly.
"The library?" Sirius asked, now completely lost, "what for?"
James didn't reply, nor did he stop until he reached the library, gasping for breath. Sirius and Peter followed, while James scanned the shelves of books. He stopped and pulled on out it was on dark and dangerous creatures.
James brought it to a table and sat down, immediately beginning to flip through the book. He stopped on a certain page that made Sirius gasp and Peter look even more confused.
"No, he can't be!" Sirius said looking at the page in horror.
"Who can't be what?" Peter asked.
"That's what I am trying to find out!" James said while ignoring the clueless Peter.
"Find out what?" Peter asked.
"It would explain a lot, wouldn't it?" Sirius asked sadly.
"Yeah it would…" James added with the same sadness in his voice.
"Can someone please fill me in here?" Peter asked almost hysterically.
They both gave exasperated sighs then turned towards Peter shoving the book in his face.
"So…" Peter started, "This doesn't explain why James had to run all the way from the Hospital Wing after seeing Re-"
Peter stopped abruptly then looked back to his friends. He finally realized what was going on.
"Oh," he said shortly. They all looked at each other sadly. It all made sense.
Remus Lupin was a werewolf.

Reviews:
Misty Cherry: Yeah you were the first review…number 49! I'm sorry that you were sad for James. I thought that I make it…interesting. Anyways thanks for reviewing #49! ; )
EyesofEmerald: Yay! You are my 50th reviewer! I feel old ; ). Anyways thanks for reviewing! I am glad that you liked it! And yes I missed you! ; )
Sarah Warder: I am glad to here that this is one of the best fics that you have ever read! I am sorry that your computer is having problems, with the whole review thing!
That now brings me to the email that I received from you. I am not going to lie and say that I enjoyed it one bit. First of all I have no idea what you have against Americans but I suggest that you keep that in between you and your non-American friends.
Second, I have nothing again gays. The whole thing with the gay, and frig stuff I can't help. It is slang where I live and I can't help the way I speak. I also have nothing against young looking people, I was planning on removing the Pavarti thing since I myself found nothing wrong with it, and I planned on doing that before you got this. So by the time you read this that is gone so is all the gay, frig words I could find if I missed some I'm sorry. And I'm sorry you got pulled over for looking young. My sister is 18, I am 14 (and not immature by the way!) and I am a head taller than her and believe me I am not tall!
Also to let you know I didn't hate the movie! I just hate all the drastic changes that they made and I thought that it would be cool to write all the things that were wrong with it! I didn't ask for people to agree with me or anything so I suggest that if you wish to send me something complaining about my bio that you don't do it through a review, cuz those are only for stuff relating to my STORY!
Also if you wish to criticize people and say that you will kick their ass just because they say gay because that is the way that they talk even though they have no problem with gay people, then I suggest that you do NOT criticize people on being AMERICAN!!!! I love my country and if you do not like the people then I suggest that you keep that to yourself unless you wish to go complain about them to all the psycho terrorist that only see Americans as fat people who don't give a damn about the world!
Ok! So there you go! I do hope that this does not in anyway affect your views on my story; I just couldn't let such crap go unnoticed! Thank you for your time!
