Lucis lauged. " 'Oy! You think that you! Can beat up me and my minions? HA! Your in for it now!"
"I don't have time for this!" Sirius Ran and hit lucis in the face. Then Severus, then the other boy.
Sirius ran to the Tower.
He opened the door, and saw the trail of blood going up the stairs. A Lump lie about 15 feet from the platform above him.
Sirius ran up to the lump, It was Artimis. Her breathing was ragged and she was bleeding badly.
Sirius picked her up and carryed her up to the platform.
Her eyes opend.

"I told you not to come back..." she wispered.

"An I told you I would!" He Said sternly.
Sirius put her down on the bed.
Artimis coughed somemore.
Blood spilled allover Sirius.

"Sorry..." She said wiping off her lip. "Ugh..." Artimis clutched her stomach. It was hurting badly, it had been for a long time.
Sirius grabed a towel, then sat down next to her, and started to wipe of her now blood cover face.

"You should get back to the Inn before someone suspecets something." Said Artimis.

Sirius shook his head, causing rainwater to go flying.
"Just relax" He said.

Sirius looked at her saw that she was about his age,15, her hair was longer,but she still had the same face.
Artimis coughed some more, spiting blood everywhere.

"Roll over. Try to sleep." Said Sirius
Artimis rolled over, and coughed some more. the wounds on her arms poured blood.
Sirius lye down next to her.

"Relax" He Said Queitly and put his arm over her sholder.

She countiued to cough but she fell asleep and so did Sirius.

Artimis woke up aout 11:00. The moon was still out so she was still human.
She looked at Sirius, He was sleeping quietly.
Artimis got up, only to by pulled back down by Sirius.

"You think your going some where?" He said.

Artimis had been pulled down so she was flat on the bed.
"Come on, let me go" She said tugging away from him.
But Sirius wasn't going to let go.

"Please just relax, your going to have so much blood to clean up, it's better to atleast keep it in one place!" Said Sirius tugging her back down.
Artimis gave up and fell back on the bed.

"Thats better." Said Sirius smiling.

"Why did you come back if you knew i was going to be bleeding everywhere and in alot of pain?" Wispered Artimis.

"Because. I care." Sirius said "Now sleep in the morning it won't be so bad."
Artimis closed her eyes.
She could feel Sirius' steedy breath.
She slowly, and painful, went back to sleep.
When Artimis woke up Sirius was already up washing the blood off his shirt.
Sirius thought it odd that there was a sink in a clock tower but he didn't feel like asking questions.
His back was cold seeing that nothing was on it.
Artimis stood up she was back to her normal self.
Sirius heard her get up and turned around. "You feeling better?" Sirius asked.
"Yes. Thank you." She said, and gathered up the blankets.
I'll be right back" Said Artimis and walk in to a what looked like a closet.

She came back out with a blanket wraped around her and her wet clothes.

"They need to dry." She Said
"You only have one pair of clothes?" Asked Sirius
Artimis nodded.
Artimis turned so her back faced Sirius and tied the blanket. THe blanket was big enough for it to go around her 2 times.
Sirius tookk his wet shirt and hanged it on a string.

"I'll go mop up the blood down stairs." Said Sirius,got a washcloth and got it wet. He then walked down the stairs.
Artimis looked out the window into the inn. James was up looking around.
Artimis dug under her bed and took out the invisabilty cloack she put it around her so she didn't have to have the heavy and hot blanket.

Artimis secured it around her. she still had a pants but no shirt.

Artimis floated down to the steps to start to clean them.
Artimis started to sing.
Sirius listened the song sounded like a poem he knew, then he remberd it was a poem called The Highwayman. by Alfred Noyes.
(it's a real poem.)
Artimis was singing it to a irish/celtic tune,

"The wind was a torrent of darkness among the gusty trees.
The moon was a ghostly galleon tossed upon cloudy seas.
The road was a ribbion of moonlight over the purple moor,
And the highwayman came riding-
Riding-riding-
The highwayman came riding, up to the old inn-door.

He'd a French cocked-hat on his forehead, a bunch of lace at his chin,
A coat of velvet, and breeches of brown doeskin.
They fitted with never a wrinkle. His boots were up to the thigh.
And he rode with a jeweled twinkle,
His pistol butts a-twinkle.
His rapier hilt a-twinkle, under the jeweled sky.

Over the cobbles he clattered and clashed in the dark inn-yard.
He tapped with his whip on the shutters, but all was locked and barred.
He whistled a tune to the window, and who should be waiting there
But the landlord's black-eyed daughter,
Bess, the landlord's daughter,
Plaiting a dark red love-knot into her long black hair.

And dark in the dark old inn-yard a stable wicket creaked
Where Tim the ostler listened. His face was white and peaked.
His eyes were hollowsof madness, his hair like moldy hay,
But he loved the landlord's daughter,
The landlord's red-lipped daughter.
Dumb as a dog he listened, and he heard the robber say-

"One kiss,my bonny sweetheart, I'm after a prize tonight,
But i shall be back with the yellow gold before the morning light;
Yet, if they press me sharply, and harry me through the day,

Then look for me by moonlight,
Watch for me by moonlight,
I'll come to thee by moonlight, though hell should bar the way."

He rose upright in the stirrups. He scarce could reach her hand,
But she loosened her hair in the casement. His face burnt like a brand
As the black cascade of perfume came tumbling oer his breast;
As he kissed its waves in the moonlight,
(O,sweet black waves in the moonlight!)
Then he tugged at his rein in the moonlight, and galloped away to the west." Artimis paused and looked up, Sirius was next to her on the step staring
at her.
"Oh! Sorry!" Said Artimis looking alittle astonished.
Sirius looked at her in shock. "How did you know almost the whole poem?"

"Well, i really know the whole thing, but thats something else." She said getting back to scrubing.
Sirius nodded.

"I'm goign to se if the clothes are dry." Said Artimis and started to float. SHe started singing again,
"He did not come in the dawning. He did not come at noon;
And out of the tawny sunset,before the rise of the moon,
When the road was a gypsy's ribbion, looping the purple moor,
A redoat troop came marching-
Marching-marching-
King George's men came marching, up to the old inn-door."
Artimis look at the clothes, they where damp but wearable.
Sirius steped up to the next step.
There was a creak at the door. Someone was coming.
Artimis heard this, (she had just changed.)
Sirius had hurried up the steps.

"Hey, but you really don't know where Sirius went?" asked the familier voice of James.

"No, I don't have a clue where he went, he pushed me in the shack than went running." Replyed the other very familier voice of Remus.
They started to walk up the steps.
Artimis grabed Sirius' arm.
"Put this over you." Artimis wispered to Sirius, handing him the invisability cloak.
Sirius put it over him.
Artimis went invisable, just as Remus,James and Peter, walked up the steps.

"Well, why did we come here any way?" Asked Remus

"Oh my God! What Happened here?" Yelled Remus after he saw all the blood.
"Look! Sirius Shirt! He must have been murdered!" Yelled Peter.

"They're not taking this well..." Wispered Artimis in his ear.

"Well, what are we going to do?" Asked Sirius quetly.

"Simple." Artimis said and pulled the invisabilty cloak off of Sirius.

"What the Hell are yo-"Sirius broke off. "Uhh... Hi. Guys? Are you okay? You look like you've seen a ghost..."
