Chapter 5

Let them bury your big eyes, In the secret earth securly,

Your thin fingers, and your fair, soft, indefinite colored hair,

All of these in some way, surely, from the secret earth shall rise;

Not for these I sit and stare, Broken and bereft completly:

Your young flesh that sat so neatly, on your litte bones will sweetly, Blossom in the air.

But your voice, never the rushing, of a river underground,

Not the riseing of the wind, in the trees before the rain,

Not the feet of the children pushing, yellow leaves along the gutters,

In the blue and bitter fall, shall content my museing mind,

For the beauty of that sound, that is new way at all,

Never will be heard again.

Sweetlythrough the sappy stalk, of the vigorous weed,

Holding all it held before, cherished by the faithful sun,

On and on eternally, shall your altered fluid run,

Bud and blossom and go to seed; but your singing days are done;

But the music of your talk, never shall the chemistry,

Of the secret earth restore. All your lovely words are spoken.

Once the ivory box is broken, Beats the golden bird no more.

- Elegy, by Edna St. Vincent Millay


The next day was the official start of the Christmas Holidays. Most of the children left and all the teachers stayed. Peter left for home to visit his mother. His father had died on September 25th and he wanted to help his mother. James was going home to visit his sick mother, who wasn't allowed out of the bed. Sirius was going to stay with James and keeping James and his mother company.

Remus though, he stayed at Hogwarts. He stayed because he had to do some more reserch for his Transfiguration, Charms and Defense Against the Dark Arts homework. So, Remus spent the first day in with the librarian.


Harry sat in his chair in the weird office. He had to say, God's office was better. Waaayyy better. Even though this room stuns the wizards and witches that went through there. In God's office, they fainted. Yep, fainted.

Harry was leaning back, watching the Phoenix. The phoenix was on the back of his chair, and looking down on him. Harry sighed inwardly and waited for the adults to talk to themselves as if he wasn't there.

From what he learned, the old man with creepy, twinkleing eyes was the Headmaster. The strict looking woman was the Headmistress, and head of house. Of something. The gnome guy was a head of some house. As was the brown haired woman. And the brown haired man.

The phoenix took a spot in Harry's lap while they went on waiting. A tickle began in the back of Harry's head that caused him to look to his left. And see a black, worn hat twitching. Harry smiled slightly as he looked to the adults, not one of them was paying attention to him, so he summoned the hat to him and put it on.

Ahh, so here's the one I missed. Harry heard in his head.

Missed what? Thought Harry.

Why, you missed the sorting, let's see what's in your mind. Shall we?

What? Asked Harry in his head.

Hmmm, you can be rather emotionless at times. That's expected when ypu've delt with death for your whole life. You have a thirst to prove yourself. You'd be great in Slytherin.



Is Remus Lupin is this, Slytherin? Asked Harry.

No, Remus is in Gryffindor, a noble house. But, I must say he would have been great in Slytherin, being a Werewolf.

A Werewolf! I'm a Angel for him? But, but usually she get's all of them? What has God been thinking lately! Wait... don't answer that. Harry sighed, though no one noticed.

What's wrong? Werewolves aren't evil in nature.

And yaadaa yaadaa, I know already. Took my be surprise. Problom one is, if he transforms and bites me, he'll be posioned by my blood and die in a day or two.

Ahhh, now I see your problom. And that you belong in " GRYFFINDOR!"


Silence over took the teachers when the shout of the hat. They all turned to the boy who lifted the hat a little to see. His emerald eye looked around and he asked " what's a Gryffindor?"

McGonagall stood and said " since he is in my house, I shall take him to his dorm. Albus, call the stores and get his stuff."

McGonagall passed the boy and said " Common boy, time to take you to your common room."

" But I can't." The said Harry.

" And why not." Asked McGonagall.

" Because the bird is taking a nap in my lap." Answered Harry. The teachers then saw the bird. Sleeping. McGonagall sighed and sat back down.

" And we might as well tell you about the school, students and teachers. No homework will be given to you, but you must read you text books and such." Said Dan. Harry nodded. And so the day went by.


When the phoenix woke and flew off, Harry had everything he needed, and it was after dinner. As Harry and McGonagall walked through the halls, Harry noticed all the talking picture's stare at him with wide eyes.

Harry relized that he had come for their deaths. Since all the paintings were dead. Harry just smirked and a few pictures fled. Even the Ghosts didn't bother them. " The first year dorms are filled, and the only open one with a spare bed is in the 6th Year dorms. You'll stay there for the year. At least untill you get your memory back."

They reached the picture of a fat lady in a pink dress. " This is the entrance to Gryffindor Tower. The password is Sanctuary at the moment." The teacher said as the door flew open. The room was cozy and warm with squashy looking chairs and couches.

" I'll leave you here". Said McGonagall as she left him there. Harry made his way to the dorms and up to the 6th years and knocked. The door was opened by a pale boy with tawny brown hair and dark amber eyes.

Harry said " I've been transfered to the 6th year dorms because the other's are full, may I come in now." The boy seemed to get out of his small shock and let him in. To Harry, the other boy was slightly familar.

The room had 7 beds. Each went around the tower room. There was three windows. Remus sat on his bed next to the window and Harry found his under a wndow. He climbed up ontp the sill and sat there.

The window was open and let the cool air come in. Remus heard the otherboy move and looked to him. Remus stood by Harry's bed and said " Hello, I'm Remus J. Lupin."

Harry smiled, maybe this would be a easy job after all. " I'm Harry Azrael. I'll tell you now, Azrael is my middle name, and I'm suffering from memory loss at the moment."

Remus nodded and said " it's late, see you tomrrow." He went to the bathrooms and changed into his Gryffindor colored p.j's and went to bed. After a while, Harry shut the window and laid out on his bed.

"This is going to be a long year, I just know it," Whispered Harry to himself.
