Disclaimer: I do not own Sirius Black, Remus Lupin, James Potter, or Lily Evans.
I do own Kadasa Mori and Samantha Selene and any of the characters I make up along the way.
I also don't own the places mention in here (Ex: Hogwarts, Hogwarts Express, Platform 9 ¾'s, etc.) Unless they're of my own creations (Ex: Sam's American home)
I never want to own Wormtail so you may have him.
Oh and I don't own any of the teachers… unless of course I make them up.
Yup… I think that's about it. Now on with the story!
Last time:
"I DON'T LIKE SIRIUS!" Kadasa shrieked.
"Thanks for that emotional booster," a dull voice stated behind her. She spun to find Sirius standing there.
She turned bright red. "No! I like you just not that way." He raised an eyebrow and she gave out a cry of frustration. "Good bye!"
He grinned after her then turned to Sam. "Here. Remus says you 'accidentally-on-purpose' slipped it into his bag."
She scowled as he handed her a few galleons and sickles. "I told him he couldn't pay for my food."
Sirius smirked. "Right. He's gonna listen to that?" he asked before heading for the door. He was about to shut it then stepped back in, grinning. "Tell Kadasa we're gonna have to have a nice long chat about our close relationship," he said and winked. "Night." Lily and Sam glanced at each other before laughing. They felt bad for Sirius. Kadasa was going to kill him.

"Sirius?"
The gray eyed boy looked over at Kadasa and opened his mouth to answer 'yes love' but remembered what happened the last time he referred to her as anything more than a friend.
She'd nearly strangled him when he came into the common room the next morning and chased him around for 10 minutes. The only reason he wasn't dead yet was James, who was supposed to be his best friend ever and save him from the mad girl, only shrugged it off and complained they were being too loud. Lily innocently looked away, Sam shaking her head giggling, Remus rolling his eyes.
At least they had enough common sense to get all wands away from Kadasa before she used an unforgivable on Sirius. The only reason he ever made it to breakfast was because he bribed Kadasa with chocolate.
He turned to Kadasa and nodded. "Yeup?"
"Where's my textbook?"
He gave her a dull look. "How am I supposed to know?"
She rolled her eyes. "You stole it."
Lyon snorted, sitting across from him. Kadasa glanced at the board and moved one of Lyon's pieces for him while Sirius remembered what book she was talking about.
"Oh yeah. That one." He looked back at his own book. "Gave it to Jamesie."
"James?" she called heading up the boys' dorms stairs. He heard a distant 'what?' before students in other dorms told them to keep it down.
Sirius smirked and returned to his game of chess against Lyon before realizing he'd lost. "Hey! Not fair! She moved one of your pieces!"
Lyon shrugged. "I told you I'd beat you. Never said it was with some help."
Sirius scowled at him. "Evilness…"
Lyon laughed and stood. "You've been hanging out with Kadasa too often."
"Oi! Lyon!" Sarah called from across the room. "Come help me out here! I can't remember what spell to use."
He sighed. "See ya later Black." He walked over to Sarah and flopped onto the couch next to her, the beater squealing as she almost fell off. Sirius smirked then headed up the stairs to his dorm. He opened the door only to catch a pillow in the face.
"Ow," he mumbled into the fabric. The pillow was pulled away and Kadasa looked sheepish.
"Not my fault," she immediately said. "James threw it."
"Cause I gave your damn textbook to Lily! Go ask her!" Kadasa stuck her tongue out before squealing as he grabbed another pillow and running from the room.
Sirius grinned and flopped onto his bed, James muttering to himself, looking back over his parchment. "All done yet Moony?"
"Hm…" Remus replied, distracted. "Almost…"
"Good. You'll need to finish early tomorrow."
James scowled. "Why? What's tomorrow?" Realization dawned and he grinned widely. "Yes! Full moon! I can't wait! I need to go romp around for a few hours."
"Me neither," Sirius replied, snatching a transfiguration textbook off the table beside him and starting his homework. "Maybe we can find an acromantula to play with."
"No," Remus stated suddenly. "I dunno what I'm doing and certainly don't want to turn back and find a 15 foot spider looming over me."
"Aw, you're no fun." Sirius faked a pout, jotting down a few things on his homework.
Werewolf… James thought with a frown, then remembered something.
"I'm gonna go hunt down whomever the first werewolf was and totally kill him."
James suddenly perked his head up and looked at Remus. "Oi! Moony!"
Remus didn't even look up from his homework to see who had called him but answered, "what?"
"Who else is a werewolf?"
He paused then looked up at James, Sirius also looking over. "What?" he repeated.
"Last full moon, Kadasa was cursing werewolves. She knows someone else who's a werewolf but she wouldn't tell us who. Do you know?"
Remus looked at his homework carefully, debating whether or not to tell them.
She smiled, almost sadly. "I'm part werewolf as well. My father was a werewolf and married my mother. That's why I went to America over the summer. My family owns a few acres of land and I was free to roam about."
"But… but you don't transform."
"Yes I do, but since my mind in only half wolf, I guess I can control it better. I stay curled up in the dorm every full moon."
He smirked. "Figure it out yourself."
James' jaw dropped and Sirius pouted. "Moony!" he whined. "That's not nice."
"I know it's not. Figure it out yourself. Use them brain cells for once."
Sirius scowled at him and returned to his homework.

Later than night, they all sat around a burning fire in the common room. The sun was getting ready to set and James, Sirius, and Peter were anxiously awaiting the night. Kettleburn had told his Care of Creatures class that a herd of aethonon had traveled into the dark forest. They were going to check them out. Kadasa, Sam and Lily sat on the opposite couch.
"Asa!" Lily scolded as the blond sat back with a huff. "You know I can't get out of this meeting!"
"But we're gonna be lonely!" Kadasa whined. Sam nodded her agreement.
"Well I'm sure you'll find something to do. I'll give you some spells to keep yourself occupied."
Kadasa sighed and stood walking over to the boy's couch, flopping down next to Sirius.
He raised an eyebrow at her. "What's your problem?"
"I sleepy."
"So go to bed." She shook her head violently back and forth, ponytail smacking him. "Ouch! Hey!"
She laughed then stood up again as the clock rung 7. "Sammy? Shall we go?"
Sam nodded and hooked arms with her, both climbing the stairs. Lily sighed and also stood.
"I have to go as well. Got a meeting with McGonagall," she said and disappeared out of the room.
"Well…" James muttered. "Sun's almost set. Shall we get ready?" Sirius nodded and they all clambered up to the dorms to get the cloak and map. In the Head boy's dorm, James went over to his trunk. "So we're gonna go check out those horses right?" He asked. Sirius and Peter nodded their agreement. Sirius turned to flop on his bed and spotted Kadasa's textbook.
"Oh damn. She'll kill me if I don't return this. I'll meet you guys in the common room, kay?"
"All right Padfoot," James muttered, head in his trunk.
Sirius snatched the textbook and quickly headed for the Head girl's dorm. He climbed the steps and reached the dorm. The door creaked open as he pushed it aside and stepped into the room.
Kadasa sat in the windowsill, petting a large dog/like wolf. Sirius froze as he recognized it as a werewolf.
"Hey Lily!" she chirped, not looking back at him to see if it really was Lily, instead continuing petting the wolf, waving her wand. "Back so soon? Didn't know McGonagall would let you out so quickly."
The werewolf froze as it opened its eyes to look at him. "Asa! Not Lily!" He recognized Sam's voice. Kadasa obviously didn't understand her, looking down at her.
"Wassa'matter Sammy?" The wolf growled at her then nodded towards Sirius. She obviously didn't get it. "Hey Lils… what's the spell to make those birds?"
"That would be Avis," Sirius stated, shoving his hands into his pockets.
Kadasa froze and slowly looked over at Sirius. "S-s-sirius?" she stuttered, eyes wide.
"So it is Sam." He walked over to the wolf and smirked, patting her on the head.
Sam scowled at him. "Stupid boy."
He scowled back. "I am not!"
She looked surprised. "You can understand her?" Kadasa asked.
"Yeup."
"Cause you're an animangus?" He looked surprised. "Figured it out while back," she said at his look.
He nodded. "What are you two talking about?" Kadasa asked with a scowl.
"Nothing Asa. Oh, here's your textbook."
"You stole it again!"
"Yup! See you tomorrow. G'night."
"Night." He headed for the stairs, meeting up with James and Peter in common room.
"Ready?" James asked and Sirius nodded before James tossed the cloak over the three of them.

Sirius stood in front of the tunnel. Ready go yet? he asked James impatiently. James sent him a scowl before trotting out in front of him, Remus following, tail wagging frantically.
Sliding out from the tunnel and trotting towards the forest, Remus paused, his wolf instincts telling him another of his kind was somewhere. He looked up at the castle to see a dark blur heading towards them. He barked at Padfoot in front of him, the big dog turning to see what was the matter. He trotted over to the werewolf approaching them. Padfoot and Prongs, looked uneasy, following him.
Friend-dog-Padfoot, friend-stag-Prongs who? Who? he asked them. The human part of Remus whispered Sam.
Friend-wolf-Sam? he asked James who looked surprised but Padfoot nodded, wagging his tail as the other werewolf came to a stop in front of them.
Sam? James asked.
The werewolf nodded. Hi.
You werewolf?
She looked sheepish, tail falling slightly. Yeah…
What you doing here?
Need out. Bright night. Romp through forest, she frowned. Okay with you?
They both nodded and Remus wagged his tail.
Race fast? he asked. Sam glanced at Padfoot who nodded.
She grinned, wagging her tail. Go. Go. Race fast now.
They tore through the trees, Padfoot and Prongs racing to keep up with them. From the Gryffindor Head Girl's window, Lily watched, a smile splayed across her lips.
"She make it out all right?" Kadasa asked, reading her Transfiguration textbook.
"Yup," Lily replied. "She looks like she's having fun."
"Good. She needs to get out more often. Those woods will provide her enough entertainment. Squirrels and whatnot to chase." Lily smiled and nodded her agreement, watching her friend disappear into the trees.
