Grimmauld place was unusually quiet the next morning as the 3 set akwardly around the breakfast table
"So Moony" Sirius said "Congrats on your teaching job"
Remus nodded "Thanks" Sirius grinned "You better not punish the Gryffindors in any way" Sirius said
"Well if he didn't punish them their egos would keep expanding causing their oversized heads to explode" Draco snapped
Sirius turned to Draco "You're the one with the oversized ego" He replied
"No actually I don't think very highly of myself" Draco said with a smile "I'm constantly reminded I'm no good"
The room was then drowned in silence once again as the 3 set staring at their food
Remus glared at Sirius "Apoligize" Remus mouthed to Sirius. Sirius shook his head as Remus gave a killer look.
"ok" Sirius whispered taking a deep breath
"Moony's making me say sorry" Sirius said to Draco "So I'm sorry" He said quickly
"sorry for what" Draco asked giving Sirius his full attention
"Sorry for being a prat" Sirius said "Good" Draco said "Apology accepted"
"anyways are you returning to Hogwarts" Remus asked
"Yeah"Draco replied "If Potter can handle the hatred and torment of classmates so can I" he said
"Everyone likes Harry except you stupid Slytherins and he doesn't like you lot anyways" Sirius said
"yeah right fourth year everyone hated him till he almost kicked the bucket" Draco said "Nodody loves ya till you're close to dead" he whispered
Sirius opened his mouth to argue but was interupted by Draco "take you for example" Draco said "you were innocent all along and people only believed that after you were dead and gone or faking dead at least"
"I never hated Harry" Sirius said
"oh you were so caring when you faked your death and left him here to rot"Draco replied
"I didn't fake my death" Sirius snapped "The veil transported me to another realm and what would you know about Harry"
"More then you" Draco said "Even though I haven't exactly been fond of him I know that he always keeps everything inside and one of these days he's gonna crack and land himself in St.Mungo's"
"No he's a very open boy" Sirius said
Draco snorted "He's not even a boy anymore Sirius" Draco said "He's grown up and where were you when this was taking place" he asked
Sirius tried to respond but was silenced by Remus "Both of you shutup" Remus shouted "Harry's not here right now and it's not gone to help to argue about his well being"
"I'm going for a walk" Sirius said getting up from the table
"I'm going to my room" Draco whispered as he too got up from the table and hurried upstairs.
"where are you walking" Remus asked
"Outside" Sirius snapped as he stepped outside slamming the door behind him
"Now I'm alone" Remus said to himself as he started cleaning the house
Sirius walked aimlessly around the neighborhood trying to ignore everything Draco had just said. He knew Draco was right.He was a bad godfather but he vowed he was going to make up for it. He would find Harry. He would find him right now.
A noise behind Sirius pulled him from his thoughts.
"Hello"A voice said behind Sirius
He quickly turned around to find himself face to face with Serverus Snape
"Snape" Sirius said bitterly "Where's Harry"
"I don't know"Snape said "His screaming has caused me to have a little memory loss"he said sarcastically
"what the hell have you done to my godson" Sirius asked seizing the front on Snape's robes
"Do you really want to know" Snape asked "well I'll give a taste"he said raising his wand
"Crucio" Snape yelled. Sirius immediatly fell to the ground screaming in pain.
"why don't I take you to see Harry" Snape said lifting the curse "yes Bella will be thriled to see you"Snape said laughing.
He stepped over to Sirius and shoved a coin in his hand. It was a portkey and it was taking them both to Harry.
Sirius and Snape both lost their balance as soon as their feet hit the floor. Sirius smiled realizing what had just happened. Snape had taken him to Harry.
"get up Black" Snape shrieked as he roughly pulled Sirius from the ground.He led him to the middle of the dark room and threw him into a chair there. He quickly binded Sirius's arms and legs.
"well hello dear cousin" Bella said as the torches on the wall were lit and Sirius was able to take in his surroundings
"where's Harry" Sirius yelled
"oh do you miss baby Potter" Bellatrix asked in a childish tone
"Where is he Bella" Sirius asked, his eyes boring into hers
"Turn him around Snape" Bella whispered "show him his hero"she laughed as Snape turned Sirius's chair around.
The sight sickened Sirius. There bound to the wall was Harry. Bloody, beaten, and unconcious.
"what have you done to him" Sirius asked as tears threatened to spill from his eyes
"You're here for a private screening cousin" Bella said as she reached out a finger to stroke Sirius's cheek. Sirius flinched at her touch
"I'm not gonna hurt you" She whispered "I'm gonna hurt him" She said pointing to Harry.
"no" Sirius whispered "Bella please just let him go" Sirius pleaded
"gag him" Bella commanded Snape "His begging sickens me" she snapped
Snape quickly conjured a rag and tied it around Sirius's mouth.
Sirius watched as Bellatrix walked over to Harry and ran a finger down his nose.
"wakey, wakey Potter" She whispered "enervate" she said as Harry's eyes snapped open
"look who's joined us" Bella said with a grin as she steped aside and pointed to Sirius.
"Sirius" Harry whispered "why's he here" Harry croaked
"He's our guest of honor" Bella said "He gets to view the grand finalle"
"you're going up in flames baby" She said as she stepped back
"watch Sirius" She said as she raised her wand "Crucio" she shouted causing Harry to scream out in pain as tears poured from Sirius's eyes.He tried to cry out but the rag around his mouth refrained him from doing so.
Sirius was helpless as the death eaters continued to torture Harry.
Sirius's attention was drawn away from Harry as the door opened revealing Voldemort.
