What Blind Men See
Disclaimer: I own nothing. I am making no money.
Notes: I am so sorry this took so long. But I do have the next couple of chapters coming up soon! Anyway, back to the story.
Chapter 11Frustration
Everyone was in the Great Hall that morning. James and Lily were talking about some thing they had to do after classes because of their prefect duties. Sirius was helping Peter with his Transfiguration homework, and Remus was lost in thought.
'Who was that person?' he wondered. He could not get it out of his mind. 'What is going on around here? Something is up I know something is. What if something happens and I can't see to help them. What if its one of my friends? How do I warn them or help them if I cane see a damn thing?' Remus was frustrated. He hated being blind, He felt so helpless, even though his friends are by his side, and at times, epically because they are by his side. Even blind, he could tell people and his friends looked at him with pity.
The rest of the day, things went as they usually did. Everyone seemed a little distant today for some reason, no one questioned them about it, they just thought that it was just one of those days. Ever since Remus became blind, everyone seemed affected by it.
That night was also like every other night Remus had had for a while everyone else was asleep while he lay awake, alone with his thoughts.
Remus finally fell asleep around 1:30 am, his exhaustion finally taking over, never knowing of the invisible figure watching his every move.
She walked toward his sleeping figure, and put one of her hands on his forehead. "I am sorry, ma pere, I have the world to take care of, I must do what is best for everyone, not just my father. Harry, Ron, Hermonie, Ginny, Sirius, and all of the others are depending on me," she started, and something fell on Remus' face, a tear. She was crying. "Harry told me that I couldn't let my emotions get in the way, he also said, that if this worked, I may not remember it when I went back, if I ever did, and if I am ever born again." The only sound in the room was that of the scuffling of her taking off her invisibility cloak, revealing an almost split image of Remus, only with female features and longer hair. "I still remember holding you in my arms after the attack, you told me that you were proud of me, always have and always would be. And on matter what, always do what I felt I had to do, and not to regret it. You died that night, lying in my arms. Then Peg took off, she had found a time turner, determined to stop everything from happening. She is watching you dad, but so am I. I will look out for you, and do what I have to do, even if it means killing someone I once held dear, or still do." She paused for a moment to take him in, how different he looked. "There is one thing I must do, for I hate seeing you like this." She took out her wand, and hovered it above Remus' head. "Sentaim charlais meta bighenisem," she said, nothing appeared to happen, but a satisfied smile appeared on her face. "I must go now papa, I will see you soon, but no matter what happens you will still not see me," with those final words, she picked up the Invisibility Cloak, put it on, and walked out of the room, also unaware that one of the Maurders was awake, one who had heard every work she had said, and now had an evil grin of satisfaction on his face.

When Remus awoke the next morning, everything was as it had been for a while now, completely dark. His friends somewhat helped him get dressed, he still could not find his way to his dresser. They then waited for Gann and Lily in the Common Room to go to breakfast.
"There you guys are, come on, I am hungry," said Sirius as James walked over and kissed Lily on the cheek. "Come on, come on, gotta eat, gotta eat." Gan finally smacked Sirius on the head to shut him up.
Remus allowed himself a small smile, then started to get up, only to collapse because of a sharp pain in his head.
"Remus?" everyone questioned.
Remus opened his eyes, fighting against the pain, and discovered that he could see. Then the pain increased, and Remus passed-out, once again giving in to the darkness.

A/N: I AM SO SORRY FOR THE WAIT. Ok, ok, between homework and finals and practice and softball picking up and everything else, I never had a chance to type this stuff up. I already have chapter 14 done. But I don't have the time to type it up! Now, I want five reviews for this chapter or I won't post another. Peace Out.
