Chapter 35:
Sirius shook the hair out of his face and leaned forward. After coming out of Saint Mungos they had returned to Dumbeldore's office for him to explain something very important to them. Sirius turned his head to the left and saw Faith sitting two seats down from him. Her eyes were puffy and her hair was hanging in her face. Sirius sighed and leaned back. James gave him a look and sighed also. Sirius couldn't help but think about his arm around Faith and the fact that she wasn't killing him for it. It almost made him feel happy...but then guilty because he was getting joy our of Faith's sadness. Sirius closed his eyes and massaged his temples. He would try and push Faith out of his mind and listen to what Dumbeldore was saying. Sirius snorted and thought it would be easier to cut off his head then not think about her.
"Your mother the healers say was simply attacked by a random woman. Only one healer saw her and that was as she was leaving. All he saw was her long black cloak. They believe, along with the Ministry that it was a completely random attack...I believe otherwise." Dumbeldore said pausing. He seemed to have their attention because all their heads perked up, even Faith's.
"I have believed for the past year that a power has been rising. Purebloods have been joining together to rid the world of the "mudbloods"." Dumbeldore said looking angry when he said mudbloods.
"There have been several muggle and muggleborn witch and wizards attacks in the past year. All I think are connected. I think this group of purebloods are serious and will stop at nothing. I am not 100% positive on this....so after Christmas I will be leaving Hogwarts for a short time to go find out if I am right." Dumbeldore said calmly sitting at his desk and looking tired.
"Who will take over though?" Sarah asked.
"Professor McGonagall and I ask that you speak of this to no one." Dumbelodre said softly. Everyone nodded and headed off to bed.
"Sirius are you awake?" James whispered.
"No I never sleep." Sirius said yawning.
"Why were you sleeping?" Peter's squeaky voice rang out.
"Oh....I don't know....it's just a little thing I like to do between now and before the sun rises." Sirius said sarcastically and yawned again.
"Do you think it's true?" James asked as he lay in bed.
"What?" Sirius said muffled by his pillow.
"The whole thing about purebloods banning together and all." James asked staring at the ceiling, his glasses still on.
"I bet it's a bunch of crazy old guys trying to scare the living daylights out of us." Sirius said yawning.
"Don't be so sure....I mean things like this have been known to happen in the past...not only in wizarding history but muggle history too." Remus said sitting up.
"Yeah but they all disappeared before they could really even do anything." Sirius said yawning and running a hand through his hair.
"It doesn't matter what they did they still left behind damage just the same. Look at Faith for example. That group probably hasn't killed that many people and will be forgotten more than likely in another year but it will have an effect on Faith for the rest of her life." Remus said calmly. Sirius thought about it and realized Remus was right.
"Hes right you know." James said yawning and falling asleep.
"Yeah...I know..." Sirius whispered softly as his friends all fell asleep and he stayed awake thinking.
(A/N: If anyone would like to shout out a few fanfic sites I could post Marauders Misery on that would be nice. Also keep sending me the fanfics!)
(A/N: If anyone was wondering why sometimes it takes me a while to get out chapters its either because I couldn't get on the computer, was at a friends or waiting for more reviews. I have to have at least 6 reviews for each chapter.)
