Hiya, I'm back. No interesting authors notes today. On with the story.

"If life goes down the toilet, it comes out in a river and meets the sea."- Lani Garver from What Happened to Lani Garver

Remus's usual pale face went even paler. 'Do not tell the court you were bitten by a werewolf,' the little voice said in Remus's head.

"He never did anything to make him mad!" Morgan shouted from where she was sitting. She stood up, "Your honor, that man is a psycho! He beat his child for no apparent reason!"

"Silence!" Evil-Man-Lawyer said to Morgan, "Now sit down and listen."

"No, you listen to me. I have seen more cuts and bruises on Remus than I did when my dad got into a car wreck. His father is sick and twisted and I can't believe that you can believe anything he or his brown-nosing lawyer says! I-" The lawyer cut her off.

"Your Honor, may I ask that this girl be escorted from the court room?" He asked.

Two minutes later Morgan was dragged kicking and screaming from the courtroom.

Back at the Potters'

James sat at home, flicking through channels on television before landing on Court T.V. They were doing a live broadcast of Remus's dad's trial. Morgan was being dragged out of the courtroom by two large men.

"Mum!" James called, "Morgan's on T.V. and she's being dragged out of a courtroom!"

"Don't be silly, dear, Morgan can't be on T.V." Mrs. Potter said, taking a sip of her coffee. She glanced at the television screen and spit her coffee all over James.

"Mum, I just took a shower," he whined.

"Go take another one. Lorna, watch your brother!"

Back in the courtroom

The judge had just returned. His decision had been made. "According to the evidence, I have no choice but to charge Randolph Lupin guilty of child abuse. There will a sentencing on the 19th at nine. Court is augured." The gavel sounded.

Remus numbly walked out of the court room. That was it? it was over? Just like that? He followed his mother into a hallway, only to hear Mrs. Potter screaming at Morgan for making such a scene. She stopped when she saw Remus.

That night the entire block threw a party to celebrate Remus's win. But something still nagged at him deep inside. His father was a dangerous man, and some how the small boy knew that this wasn't the last he'd see of him.

That's it! I'm finished! If you didn't really like the ending, I'm sorry, but I've just lost interest in this story. Byes!
