Disclaimer: This does not belong to me, if it did, Harry would get over imself and the books would probably take even longer to get out than they do now, judging by the time it takes to put out chapters.
Chapter Eleven
It was the night of the full moon. Sirius stared out of his dormitory window at the night sky. James came up behind him.
"We'll find him, OK Sirius? We'll find him." he promised. Peter looked up from the comic he was reading.
"Yeah, we'll find him." he echoed. The two boys had told Peter about Remus after a long discussion. Peter didn't care, in fact, he had been wondering if it was something like that himself. Although Peter might not have been the brightest hunk of cheese, he was observant. Sirius wasn't very reassured though. The Forbidden Forest was enormous and there were dangerous animals in it and what if Remus got hurt or worse was killed and oh no, he was thinking in run-on sentences again. The moon was high in the sky now, a white orb that represented a time of pain and suffering to Remus. Sirius glared at the moon. How dare it look so innocent and pretty, when it caused Remus and other werewolves such pain! McGonagall came into the room, causing the boys to jump.
"Now boys, I think that you should go to bed. I told you before, there is nothing that you can do to find young Lupin." she admonished the first-years. The boys, still in sight shock at having a woman professor in the boys dorms at night, looked depressed.
"Professor, can't we just stay up? Please?" Sirius begged. "I don't think we could sleep anyway, what with Remus being out there, all alone and all." McGonagall's face softened. The boys were obviously very concerned about their friend. They might not even sleep tonight, and how would she feel, depriving young boys of their sleep? Besides, who could resist faces like that?
"Fine, you can stay up tonight, but you must come with me to the Astronomy Tower. The Headmaster and I, along with Professor Kettleburn, are watching to see if we can spy any trace of Remus." The three boys jumped up happily. Spending the night in the Astronomy Tower watching for their friend who was at that moment a vicious, bloodthirsty wolf? Awesome! They grabbed their robes and followed McGonagall to the tower.
As they reached the top, they heard a wild howl coming from the forest. It was a mournful sound, echoing slightly in the dark woods. Peter shivered.
"Is that…Remus?" he whispered. Dumbledore nodded slightly.
"It is indeed, Mr Pettigrew. We are hoping that we can use tracing charms to pinpoint the whereabouts of Mr Lupin by sound, but it will prove difficult I'm afraid. Werewolves with new territory move about a lot." The three boys and three teachers looked out upon the Forbidden Forest until morning, when they would see if they could find any sign of Remus Lupin.
