Last Time:

"Padfoot, who is this?" Remus scented the tension in the air, and accordingly kept his voice calm.

"This, Moony, is our new cub." Sirius sent a grin in the girl's direction. She stepped forward, and bowed politely before speaking. Her frail voice echoed through the silent room. "Thank you, sir. Thank you very much."

Remus simply shot Sirius the look. As he passed the now-asleep Draco to Remus, and picked the girl up, Sirius caught a faint "I hope you know what you're getting us into, Padfoot."

The child began trembling the moment he touched her, and she gasped quietly as he picked her up. "Just hold on." Sirius spoke quietly and gently, much unlike his normal, boisterous self. They strode together to the fireplace, Sirius entering first and calling out "The Marauder's Den!" and vanishing with his trembling bundle.

Remus paused a moment and glanced down at his own passenger. We're going to have a hard time getting them both to settle in, but…

But the girl will probably have the harder time of it. I agree.Danger spoke as his voice of reason, having watched the scene through his eyes. I can't help but wonder, why didn't the voice mention her?

Because he didn't find her. I did.

Danger groaned. Not another one! Remus, come on through. Voice Number Two, or however you are… Hold for just a moment, please…

Certainly, dear.

Remus obeyed the imperial command and stepped through the Floo, calling out "The Marauders' Den" as he vanished.

(Scene Break)

Remus looked at his love, still drowsy from the second dream-prophecy of the day… Did I get it down right, love? Because if I did… I really don't like how this looks.

The Nine now must split- The Pack and The Pride

Who now shall live, the Five or the Nine?

The Flower's sacrifice be not in vane

For the Light's freedom has now been slain.

But for a period alone of hours

Did victory truly belong to the Flower.

He lost the Dragon, and now the Dove

For neither of whom he truly held love

But his pride unceasing would not let go

He refuses to reap what he has sown

The Nine now must Split- The Pack and The Pride

Who now shall live, the Five or the Nine?

If Five you should choose, great sorrow shall come

To those Four caretakers, all still on the run

But if Nine be your choice, then listen now well

Their young spirits cannot, must not be quelled.

Choose your number; the Five or the Nine

Speak your fate, cannot change your mind

Remember this- above desires all

It simply must not be unrecalled:

Let not the Twin and Warrior Strong

Be each from the other overlong

For if they are; this my decree:

The Caretakers four shall become three

And if the Star and Truth remain

Apart his freedom shan't be gained.

Choose the Pack or Choose the Pride

The Five or Nine, you must now decide.

Dove and Wolf, Now Fox and Cat

Must not forget, remember that

Together powers must be bound.

Or never together shall the Pack be found.

Little Doe, complete your task

Listen well Pearl, you can't be last.

Find four more, complete the bond.

All Nine- the Pride- must now be strong.

You must find the Moon and Thumb

Of Green and Wolf who isn't truly one.

Find with the Wolf the Strategist

Who holds the Traitor to his breast

A gift will be given to each of you

To help the Pack alive come through

Nine and Nine the Pride and Pack

May one day come together back.
