"What did he say?" asked an anxious Molly Weasley as a grim-looking Remus Lupin entered the kitchen of Number 12 Grimmauld Place.

He sighed. "He says that he won't come out until she does."

"Will he eat anything?" she asked.

"Of course, but he's going to force himself to stay awake," Lupin replied.

"Oh, goodness, he's crazy," Mrs. Weasley said, sighing.

"Well, can you really blame him? I mean, what would you do if Ron or Ginny were this sick?"

"I guess you're right. But still, I'm worried about him."

Sirius sat by Mary's bedside, not taking his eyes off her for one second. "I won't lose you again, Mar," he said. He thought back to when she was just a baby, before James and Lily had died.

"Come on, Mary," James Potter said. "Say "Daddy!"

Mary stayed silent.

"You're fighting a losing battle there, Prongs," Sirius Black said, laughing.

"Sirius is right, James, try something else," Lily Potter said, also beginning to laugh.

James scowled. "Alright Mar, how about "Mommy?"

Mary smiled. "Siwi," she said slowly.

"What's she saying?" said James, confused.

"Siwi!" Mary said, looking up at Sirius and lifting up her arms.

"Heh, what do you know, Prongs?" Sirius said, picking Mary up, who giggled.

"Looks like you're going to have a lot more baby-sitting jobs, Padfoot," James replied with a suggestive grin towards Lily.

Harry crawled over, lifted his arms up, and said "Siwi!"

The three adults burst out laughing.

"Dammit, Mary! Why can't I protect you like I'm supposed to to?" Sirius yelled. "I swear to you, you're not going back there. You're going to be where you want to be. Hell, if the moon is where you want to go, you can go!"

"That sounds nice," she whispered as she opened her eyes slightly.

"Mary! Thank God you're up! Everyone's so worried about you! How are you feeling?"

"Crap," she replied. "Are you sure I'm not like on fire or something?"

"Oh, Mary," he said sadly.

"Yes?" she said, a frightened look forming on her face, "What do you need? I swear! I'll do it this time!"

"What are you talking about, Mar?" he said softly.

"Please, don't hurt me again! Whatever you need, I'll get it for you!" she screamed.

Mary yelped and grabbed her ribs. "Please, not again!" she shrieked.

"I'm not going to hurt you sweetie!" he said desperately.

She yelped again and clenched her wrist. It didn't matter what Sirius said, because, to her, he wasn't there. Only her aunt and uncle.
