Summary: Remus' secret of being a werewolf is discovered.
Disclaimers: None of this belongs to me…except characters that you may not notice. Everything else, including this entire universe, belongs to JK Rowling, and I make no profit out of this. It is a pass time.
--Author's Narration: We begin in an English forest, at midnight, a full moon, very still and quiet, sometime in the near past--
Remus walked down the path, staring up at the moon. "It's so pretty." He said, looking up at his father. "Don't you think so Daddy?"
"Yes Reme, it is." He said, patting his son on the head. "You know, it's almost time for your birthday isn't it son?"
"Yup." Remus said excitedly. "I'll be five. Finally!"
Mr. Lupin chuckled. "Well, I think for your birthday we'll take you to Ireland. How would you like that?"
"I'd love it Daddy!" Remus said happily. "Oh, Ireland? Really?"
"Yes."
"Does Dane have to come?" He asked, referring to his step mother.
"Remus, I know you don't like Dane, but yes. I promise, we'll make everything just perfect for your birthday. I promise."
"Okay." Remus smiled.
"Remus, did you hear that?" Mr. Lupin asked. Remus shook his head, but then he heard it. A howling, like a wolf or a dog. There were ruffling of leaves, yelps of pain, and then there was a sharp pain in his leg, as he was thrown across the clearing, landing near a very large birch tree. He looked down at his leg. It was bleeding immensely.
"Daddy!" He asked. "Daddy it hurts!"
"Remus! Run!" Mr. Lupin shouted, taking out his wand and facing the werewolf. "Run son, run!"
"I can't leave you Daddy!"
"RUN REMUS! PLEASE RUN NOW!"
"Daddy I won't leave you!"
"Don't worry about me! I'll be fine!"
"Daddy!"
"Remus, don't make me do it!"
"Daddy!"
Mr. Lupin turned around and pointed his wand at his son, and shouted something in Latin, sending the bewildered four year old flying through the forest with tremendous speed, not stopping until he reached the edge. Remus tried to run back into the forest, but there was something keeping him back. Slamming his fists into the ground, he tried and tried, until he heard a cry so loud it shook the ground, followed by red sparks and dead silence.
