A/N- Hi! Back again so soon? Yes, hehe. I was going to update this sooner but I kind of had to sleep. I wrote the first half on Saturday from 4 a.m to 5. a.m and now it is Sunday at 3:12 and I am still not done. How are you all doing? I am on an updating frenzy I think. I think I am going to take a little break from posting until Friday or Saturday. I want to have you people have some suspense if you know what I mean. If I post all the chapters at once you won't be excited at all. So, since I always have the urge to post as soon as I am done I am going to tie my fingers down or something so I post so soon. It may sound crazy but hey, I am a little. Aren't we all? Anyway, here I am, 3:15 now and with only half the chapter written. By the time you read this, the whole chapter will be written but whatever. I want swoops. Have any of you had those? I like the York peppermint patty ones. They are so addicting! I am listening to my 3 days grace cd over and over and over, too lazy to put in another cd. My basement is creepy. I was wondering if any of you are interested in seeing my xanga? If not, I won't bother giving you all the link. Please reviews!!!!

Introducing...Sirius Black!

~!~

By the next morning the papers and the public were in an uproar. The most famous escaped convict was innocent and "let loose" so to speak. "How could this happen?" "Can you believe it?" That is what everyone was saying. They truly couldn't believe that THE Sirius Black, supposed killer of many innocent bystanders on a random night, and the follower of Voldemort was out roaming the streets. Of course they did not know that he had been for quite a while. What would parents say if they knew that their kids DADA teacher was the "evil murderer?" That could not be discovered or there would be even more of an uproar. Sirius could not be happier. Harry and Remus came in a close second at happiness. Harry's godfather was innocent and he would never have to see the Dursley's again. Well, he would for maybe a short period of time to make sure there is no more of his belongings there. Remus was happy because he could finally have his best friend back. They could go places together and Sirius could be himself. It literally was a dream come true.

~Back to Black~ By Rita Skeeter

It is reported that Sirius Black, the alleged killer of 13 people and the follower of he-who-must-not-be-named was let off of all charges and is now free to live a normal life and roam the streets. How has this happened you may ask? Peter Pettigrew, former Hogwarts student and was supposedly killed by Black, was captured by Mr. Harry Potter. The boy-who-lived was unavailable for comment but Pettigrew was held captive in the Headmaster of Hogwarts' office. They have been given a hearing with the judge of the ministry and after using Veritaserum it was found out the Sirius Black was framed by Pettigrew. They ended the hearing with the announcements that Pettigrew would be getting the Dementor's kiss as soon as possible, Sirius Black is free of all charges and now has sole custody of his godson, Harry Potter. As always, I will keep the world posted of this new custody issue with the famous boy-who-lived. But for now, don't be alarmed if you see Black walking the streets of the wizarding world.

"Isn't it great?" Sirius grinned putting his feet up on the table and stretching out in his morning robe. Harry had spent the night and Remus came as soon as he woke up.

"Your famous," Harry joked.

"Very funny, come on. Lets go to the great hall for breakfast," Sirius said.

"What about Orion?"

"What about him?"

"Well...you are going to get Dumbledore and yourself in trouble if people find out you are Orion so you better do something about it. I am sad to say...Orion must die."

"He's right Sirius," Remus said laughing.

"But I was actually starting to like his ravishing good looks and his outrageous sense of humor."

"You are falling in love with yourself?" Harry asked in mock outrage.

"Shut up Harry. We will meet you down in the great hall. Go see your friends in the common room. They are probably worried about you. I will play Orion for a couple more weeks and then I will sign my resignation. Dumbledore will probably hire the real me anyway."

"Okay, I'll see you then," Harry said and happily walked out and into his common room. Everyone was talking loudly and he saw Ron, Hermione, Neville, Seamus and Dean in one corner. Ron and Hermione were telling them about Sirius.

"Hi Harry," Neville said.

"Take a seat mate," Dean said.

"We were just talking about you," Seamus said.

"And Sirius."

"Nothing bad though Harry. We also left some good parts for you to tell."

Harry laughed. "Um...okay. What part are we at?"

"You just found the stupid rat," Ron said.

"Is it true you have super werewolf powers?" Seamus asked with wide eyes.

"Well, I guess. I smelled him and then I looked for him and I saw him. Then Remus-"

"Remus?" Dean asked.

"I mean Professor Lupin. He jumped on me and Siri...er... I mean Ron and Hermione flew above us and saw what was going on. I gave the rat to Ron who took him up to Dumbledore's and-"

"Don't tell my part!" Ron wined.

Harry laughed. "Okay then, go ahead Ron."

Ron looked like he was going to combust. "I took the him in his animagus formed and I could feel him trying to get out of my grip but I wouldn't let him. We flew through Dumbledore's window and then he put him in a cage. Okay Harry, your turn."

Harry lightly smacked Ron.

"Then we had the trial and I don't know, that was it."

"Oh come on Harry, there had to me more," Ron persisted.

"I know but I am just so sick of it all. That is about it anyway. I get to live with Sirius and he is free. Wormtail is getting the Dementor's kiss. Nothing to worry about anymore."

"Okay Harry. You can go now."

"I never said I wanted to go Hermione."

"Are you ready for the next Quidditch match in three days Harry?" Seamus asked.

"Yeah," Harry said confidently.

"You have to show that slimy snitching Malfoy who is boss Harry!" Ron exclaimed.

Harry snorted. "We are supposed to go to the great hall for breakfast. You all want to go?" Harry asked.

"Yeah I am starved."

"You always are Ron," Hermione said rolling her eyes.

In the great hall everyone stared at Harry once again but breakfast was soon over and everyone was out of the great hall.

"Harry, Sirius and I are going to go to Hogsmeade. Do you want to come?"

"Sirius is going to introduce himself to the world?" Harry grinned.

"I don't think the world is ready."

"It will never be," Harry said seriously.

"Are we going to go or not?" Sirius belted.

"Yeah, yeah come on. Wait to transform back to your normal self when we get off of Hogwarts grounds."

"Okay, lets go then," Sirius said and they walked to the village and Sirius transformed back to his normal self so he wasn't Orion. The first stop would be Three Broomsticks for some morning butterbeers. As they walked the streets almost everyone pointed and whispered. Some didn't even bother to whisper.

"That's Sirius Black!"

"And the Harry Potter!"

"And that's Black's childhood friend Lupin."

"I can't believe they let the escaped convict go free!"

"I can't believe he is innocent."

Sirius put on a proud smile as he walked into Three Broomsticks and sat down along with Remus and Harry. Madame Rosmerta looked like she was about to faint right there.

"I better go get the butterbeers. Sirius! Stop waving at everyone!" Harry practically yelled and he got up to order three butterbeers."

"Is that....Sirius Black?" a lady sitting at the corner whispered.

Harry nodded. "Yeah, hi Madame. Can I have three butterbeers please?"

She took her gaze away from Black and gave Harry his order. As soon as they were done with there drinks they ordered another round and Harry thought it would be best if they left before Rita Skeeter or someone else like her would come up to them.

"Sirius we should go."

"Where to next?" Lupin asked.

"Well Sirius, what is one place you couldn't go when you weren't free but you can go to now."

"I know..." Sirius said getting a frightening spark in his eye.

"Where?" Harry asked looking hopeful.

"The Dursley's."

"Why?" Harry said quickly. "I thought I never had to see them again."

"Oh come on Harry, just this once. They think I am some mass murderer. I can finally scare them to make up for the way they treated you!" Sirius explained.

That would definitely not make up for the way they treated him.

"It could be fun Harry," Remus said. "But of course we wouldn't hurt them right Padfoot?" Remus demanded.

"I promise I won't hurt them. I will just scare them and..." The rest of Sirius sentence was muffled so Harry couldn't understand.

"What was the Sirius?"

"I SAID I would just scare them and turn them into the cockroaches that they really are."

"Padfoot," Remus and Harry both warned.

"What? I will change them back!" Sirius said.

"Maybe I will tell Snape to give you that bone after all," Harry muttered so only Remus could hear. Remus let out a spurt of laughter and Sirius looked questioningly at him.

"I will only go if Harry says he doesn't mind," Remus declared.

"Alright. I guess it would be okay. Please don't...hurt them enough to get in trouble. I don't want you on the run again after all this time. Whatever you do turn them into, make sure you turn them back. I am going to get my stuff and I will tell them I am never coming back. Okay?"

Both Adults nodded as if they were in Harry's 3rd grade class with Harry as their teacher. The trip to Surrey was taken on the Knight bus. Harry disliked it incredibly but he just got through it the best he could.

"Here it is," Harry said stopping at number 4 Privet Drive. Remember Sirius, you are free so no murdering of anyone will be done today."

"Shut up Harry and lets just go in," Sirius said and he knocked on the door. Harry could hear Dudley thumping down the stairs and then Aunt Petunia screaming "Dudders get the door!" Dudley opened it obediently and right when he saw Harry he sneered.

"Mom, the freak is here!" He called.

There was silence in the background and then Vernon came to the door and pushed Dudley out of the way. Petunia was behind her oaf of a son so she could see what was going on. Sirius immediately stuck out his hand to greet Vernon who he had actually met a long time ago when he was with Lily.

"Honey he's-"Petunia started to whisper but Sirius cut him off.

"Sirius Black," Sirius said grabbing Vernon's chubby hand and grabbing it with such a strong bone-breaking grip. He glared at the fat man who was clearly scared but tried hard not to show it. "Nice to meat you," he finished. Vernon pulled his hand down harshly.

"What are you doing here?" He asked again. Harry and Remus both noticed that his hands were slightly shaking.

"I came to finally meet you. I have heard a lot about you. Aren't you going to invite us in and greet your nephew who you haven't seen in months? I believe you have met Remus Lupin before?"

Remus nodded and they charged there way through the door. Sirius started looking around and Remus and Harry sat down on the couch.

"Go upstairs Dudley," Petunia whispered.

"No, no. I would like to meet the boy I have heard so much about."

Dudley stood there scared and dumbfounded. He knew Sirius was a murderer. There was a murderer 2 feet away from him. Dudley thought he was going to faint.

"How are you?" Sirius asked.

"Um..." Dudley stuttered.

"Excuse me Mr. Black," Vernon interrupted, "but aren't you supposed to be on the run or in jail or something?"

"Actually, I was released just yesterday, thanks to Harry. The first thing I wanted to do was meet Harry's lovely family," he said sarcastically.

"Well," Aunt Petunia said with pursed lips, "we are in no mood for company so please be on your way after you have handled everything."

"Harry, do you need to get anything?"

Harry shook his hand.

"Harry, if Sirius does anything stupid, hold on to me and we will dissaparate immediately. Sirius can't get caught using magic," Remus whispered and Harry nodded.

"Harry, can I just do it already?"

Harry nodded and suddenly with the swish of a wand there were three cockroaches in three different cages on the floor.

"Let's go Harry," Remus said and Harry grabbed on. Sirius apparated too and they were soon in Hogsmeade.

Harry surprised everyone by laughing hysterically. "Are you ever going to turn them back?"

"There are people who will handle it," Remus said.

"I wanted to do it since I saw them," Sirius said in disgust.

"I think it would we best if we hurried off to the castle right about now."

"I am with him Sirius," Remus said and Sirius followed the two. This had been a pretty good day to say the least.

A/N- This chapter kind of just went with the flow. Next chapter will get back to the main plot and everything. I hope you liked it. Before you even ask, I had them take the knight bus because that is the safest way to get there. They had to go fast to avoid officials so they apparated back. Understand? I know I said I wouldn't update until Friday so please don't expect one until then but knowing me...I will post. Just don't be surprised if I do but...don't be surprised if I don't. It is now 4:30 and this chapter was longer than I thought it would be. Please review. I would like to get 550 reviews before chapter 31 if that is possible. Wow...this is chapter 30. There will be a total of 40 chapters. I guess you could say we are getting down to the wire...scary thought. I would like to know your thoughts about a sequel. Thank you for all of your ideas. Some are really brilliant and I will use them! Please review!!!!!!!!!!!
