The Tales of Werewolves
The Consequences of the Truth

Dom stood on the teacher's desk in the Defence Against the Dark Arts Classroom. He had an invisibility cloak on. While Harry and Draco were on their Honeymoon, which would go for a week before they had to come back, Dom was taking over the Defence class.

He knew how to draw the attention of a large group, and they really needed to pay attention for what Harry wanted him to teach them.

No one was teaching Potions. It wasn't as important as Defence during war, and a few dedicated students were doing potions in their spare time.

He threw off the cloak by extending his wings and stoped his foot once. He was wearing shoes with lead in his soles so it made a louder sound then normal.

Everyone stopped talking immediately. He smiled in a slightly evil way.

"Harry has given me instructions," he paced up and down the table, "to teach you all the Unforgivable curses." Muttering started, but Dom hissed between his fangs and everyone shut up.

"For those of you who already know how too," They couldn't see him looking at the Slytherins behind his glasses. "You don't have to attend this class, but keep in mind that if you walk out, everyone will know who you are… There's the door"

He pointed. No one moved. He smiled again.

"You all know how illegal these spells are, so I (hopefully) don't need to remind you. Pronunciation: Imperio."

The class repeated it.

"Okay… Good start."

At dinner there was a lot of talk about Draco and Harry's absence. Remus looked smug, and Sirius had an idea of where they might be. He had asked Dom, bub didn't push for answers.

Dom sat at the end of the table closest to the teachers'. He had books and papers scattered around him. He rubbed the bridge of his nose, feeling much older then what he really was.

The doors flung open, crashing into the wall behind it. Snape walked in, with a black hood up, hiding his hair, and his nose sticking out from the shadows slightly.

He went right up to Professor Dumbledore and muttered a few words. The two of them left almost immediately.

Remus, Peter, Sirius and James all walked up to Dom.

"Who was he?"

"Professor Severus Snape." Said Dom without looking up. "Potions master and Head of Slytherin house." He looked up at Sirius, who was standing opposite him. "He's married to my mother."

Sirius nodded and Dom looked back down at the papers.

"Snivellus became a teacher?" James gasped in mock horror. "I feel sorry for your generation, man."

"Harry had him as a teacher too. Before he was married so he was worse."

"And I thought school was hard now."

Lily stormed up, her hair bouncing behind her. "Did I hear you call Snape that stupid name again?"

"It's just a habit by now, Lily. I didn't mean anything by it."

She looked him up and down. "I need help in transfiguration. If you tutor me well." She smiled sweetly, "you can redeem yourself."

James watched her arse as she walked away and Sirius coughed. It sounded strangely like 'whipped'.

"I need to talk to you two in the dorms." Said James, looking from Sirius to Dom. Remus put a hand on Dom's shoulder to let him know he was being talked too.

Once they were in the Dorms, James crossed to his bed and picked up his pillow. It looked clean enough, but when he showed them the other side… It wasn't.

"Ah." Said Dom. Sirius seemed speechless.

"Remus, would you be so kind?" James held out the pillow and Remus sniffed the air.

"It's Dom's." Remus looked at Sirius and Dom. "Sorry." He whispered.

"I can explain." Dom took a breath, and looked at Sirius for permission. He got a nod. "Sirius and I are an… item, I think is the word I'm looking for. Anyway, I'm sorry we forgot to clean up, It won't happen again, and don't be too mad."

With his eyes flicking between the couple James took his time answering. "You should have known I'd be okay with this. You should have told me." He threw the pillow at Sirius and smirked, "This is yours now. You can smell it when you want to relive the night."

Sirius snorted, but Dom noticed (with some satisfaction) that he kept the pillow anyway.

There was some commotion down in the Common Room. The Marauders and Dom took off down the staircase.

The old(er) Snape stood with his hood still up and was next to the young(er) McGonagall. "Riddle," Snape address Dom, "You need to come back with me. Permanently."

"What? Why?"

"That is something which should be explained elsewhere."

"No, you fucking bastard, you're going to explain now." The room temperature dropped, the fire went out and bits of frost showed up on the walls.

Dom tried his best not to show that he was on the verge of hyperventilating. He didn't know why he was taking this so badly, but a part of his mind, the part he liked not to listen too (his non-human side), was telling him it was Sirius.

"He knows," Said Snape pointedly, "about your… bloodline."

Dom swallowed and looked at the carpet. He weighed up his opportunities and nodded, still looking at the carpet.

"What?" Sirius breathed.

Dom couldn't look him in the eye, and he walked to the back of the portrait, it swung open. He lifted his head up, looking out into the hallway. "Have the house elves bring my stuff." He said stonily.

Sirius saw the portrait close behind the two time travellers and his breath caught in his throat. His mouth opened and closed like a fish for a while. James put a hand on his shoulder.

"Come on. Let's go back upstairs."

Dom sat with his knees against his chest. Remus ran a hand through his grey hair, his shabby robes hanging off his thin body. He sat a cup of tea next to Dom.

"How was the last full moon?"

"It was fine." Remus sat down, barely hiding a groan. "But don't try to avoid the subject. How are you doing?"

"I don't know why it's affecting me like this, but I'm sure I'll be alright soon." Dom said lightly. He forced down the lump that had risen in his throat.

Remus shook his head then drank a bit of his tea. "You won't be. Can I ask you a question?"

"Sure."

"Do you even pay attention in Defence?"

"What?"

"With Werewolf bonds, the non-werewolf can feel the pull too, but with Vampire bonds, only the Vampire can feel it. That's why there are so many Vampires that are killers, because it drove them crazy. You've found your intended partner, and you've been separated."

Dom dropped his head onto his knees.

"I don't know if Sirius felt the same way or not, but if you don't do something, you're going to go nuts and it won't be pretty… Think about it."

Remus got up and left the room, taking his tea with him. Dom wrapped his arms around his knees and spread out his wings.

Sirius lay in bed and looked up at the stars Dom had spelled to show on the underside of the canopy.

A tear ran down the side of his face and into his ear. He sniffed and rubbed at his cheek before getting up and crossing the room to his bed.

He went to his trunk and pulled out a box of cigarettes.

As he crossed the room again, heading towards the door with the box in his pocket, he noticed a hooded black jacket on the ground.

Sirius went over to it and picked it up. It was Dom's and it was warm and soft, probably done with a spell.

He put it on and headed out the door.

Dom sat in the Library in his Slytherin robes. His head was in his hand and he watched the flame in his lamp flicker.

He had a blood-flavoured lollipop in his mouth and an open book in front of him.

It was written in a strange language.

Dom had another book open next to it so he could find the translation.

So far what he had gathered from the dusty pages is that when Sirius' body went behind the veil, his mind was still intact, but his physical body started regenerating.

Sirius was pushed behind the veil nineteen years ago, so his body was of a nineteen year old.

Dom put his fingers under his glasses and massaged his eyes. He had been awake for several nights in a row, and after sleeping like a normal person for so long, he wasn't used to staying up.

He had tried to sleep his first night, but his missed the warmth of Sirius sleeping with his arm around him.

Sirius sat on the top of the tower where he had gone after the Snape and full moon incident.

He came up there every night since Dom had left.

He wore Dom's jacket and he pulled it closely around his body as he took a drag on his cigarette.

He seemed to be smoking a lot more since Dom had left. He thought he was almost smoking as much as Snape was now.

As indicated by the firewhisky bottle next to him, which he had drunk a fair bit out of, he was also drinking a lot more too.

He picked it up and held it at eye hight.

"Half empty, or half full?" he asked himself. He thought about it for a second, and then decided it was definitely half empty.

Dom spun around in his chair. The common room was empty. The hair on the back of his neck stood up as he looked around the room.

He pushed the books into his bag, and started up the staircase to the dorms.

Something was wrong, something was very, very wrong but he couldn't put his finger on what it was.

Occasionally he would have one of these feelings and they would usually turn out right. He opened the door to the dorms and sat on his bad. He cast about thirteen warding spells on the curtains around his bed.

He gave it a second thought and put an extra five wards on, just in case. After all, you can't be too careful with Slytherins…

He missed being in Gryffindor.

Sirius put his legs in his pants while sitting on the bed. He stood and pulled them up.

"Are you alright?"

A guy sat up on the bed. He brushed his dirty blonde hair out of his eyes brown eyes. He adjusted the sheet over him so it covered his genitals.

"I'm fine."

"You're not going to let it out that I'm gay, are you?" The blonde asked nervously.

"I won't if you won't tell anyone I am."

"Deal."

Sirius shook his hand and left. As he was putting his t-shirt back on and walking to the Common Room he couldn't stop thinking about Dom.

While he was with the blonde, all he could think about was Dom. He was starting to believe he was in love, which would put a big dint in his reputation, since he was known as the Hogwarts Whore.

He changed where he was going, and headed towards the tower.

Dom sat up from his slumped position as fast as he could, possibly pulling several muscles in the process. Someone was coming.

He stood, using the bookshelf to help him up. Swaying from fatigue, he walked down the row as he neared the approaching footsteps. He extended his wings and drew his wand.

Katherine came around the corner, and Dom jumped.

"The Death Eaters have come." They started walking. "We've evacuated the students, but we've been looking for you. You should have told someone."

"I'm fine, mum."

Kath stopped and looked at him. Dom's eyes widened from behind his glasses, and he swore under his breath. He had forgotten she didn't know he knew she was his mother.

Every time he talked to her, he would always think 'mum' at the same time he would say her name. Since he wasn't sleeping as much as he should, he let it slip.

"I-I'm sor-"

"You know?"

Dom kept his eyes looking straight ahead. "We should go."

They kept going in silence, and using a portkey they travelled to an underground cave network. Kath led him to the chamber the teachers were in.

"Draco and Harry will be here soon." Said McGonagall. "I told them to say on their Honeymoon, but they insisted." She sniffed. "They suspect we can't handle this on our own."

"We need to talk." Kath mumbled into his ear. They crossed the cavern and Kath sat down on a large conjured rock in the shape of a chair. She held her pregnant stomach.

Dom sat on the floor.

"How long have you known?"

"Years… You don't have to explain or anything. I know you avoid me, I know why, and I understand."

Katherine looked at him. "I'm sorry." She looked at Snape thoughtfully then looked back at Dom. "I heard about your thing with Sirius. I know you've got your father's smarts," She swallowed, "so you'll be able think of someway to be with him."

Dom smiled for the first time since he had come back from the past.

"Merry Christmas." Said Katherine, as she patted the bit of rock next to her, there was enough room for another person to sit there.

"Oh, yeah! I forgot. Merry Christmas." Dom sat next to her and she pulled him into a hug.

"Promise me you won't let your Vampire instincts take control over this Sirius business."

"Sure, mum."

There was a crash and some screaming. "Fuck!" said Snape loudly, and he bolted into the chamber with the students to help the other teachers.

Dom stood and Hermione came running in. "They've found us. Dom, go with Bill further into the cave and hide. Take Andrew with you."

Will was holding his little brother's hand as he ran in, his Gryffindor robes over his light blue pyjamas.

"Let's go."
