Chapter 4
"Sirius! Get out of the bathroom! I need to take a shower!" Harry shouted through the thick wood door on September first. His only response was Sirius' bark like laugh and a continuation of the purposefully off pitch song Sirius had been singing. Finally both boys managed to clean up and eat some breakfast.
"Hey Harry?"
"Yeah Sirius?"
"How are we getting to Kings Cross?"
"Tonks is waiting at the park for us. She has a portkey… You should probably wear my invisibility cloak to avoid questions from her. She'd probably recognize you." Harry answered. Sirius only nodded in reply. They were out the door and to the park by 10. An hour before the train would leave. Tonks was waiting, sitting on a swig when Harry and an invisible Sirius got to the park.
"Whacca Harry" Tonks grinned up at Harry. "Bloody hell, when did you get so tall!"
"When did you shrink?" Harry chuckled.
The boys got to the train station 30 minutes early, after meeting up with Tonks. It had only taken that long because Sirius thought it would be amusing to throw an enchanted water balloon at a thoroughly confused Tonks (Who kept looking around for whoever had thrown the balloon). They snagged a compartment in the back. By the time they had gotten their stuff into the luggage rack Ron, Ginny, and Hermione had fond them.
"Hello mate" Ron said as he stepped in, casting Sirius a suspicious look "Who's this?"
"Oh gods Ron, be nice" Hermione said scowling at Ron. "Hi, my name is Hermione, this prat is Ron and that's his sister Ginny." Sirius gave Ginny and Hermione a saucy grin.
"Hello Hermione, Ginny My name is Dumbledore, Michael Dumbledore." He said giving a mock bow. Hermione gasped when she heard his name and once more as Sirius told her his rehearsed story.
"My parents are working for Dumbledore and sent to stay with him while they are out of the country."
"Cool" Ron had warmed up considerably to Michael as the train ride had started.
"Yup!" From there the boys (and Ginny) launched into a very long discussion on Quidditch, and Hermione pulled out a book. Sirius' and Ron's argument on which was a better team (Chudley Cannons or Tornados) only ended when the trolley came by and the both stuffed their faces with so many sweets neither could talk properly.
"So, who do you think the new defense teacher will be?" Hermione asked before anyone could start talking about quidditch again.
"Could be anyone, couldn't it?" said Ginny. They all nodded in agreement.
"With any luck it'll be Remus again! I'd love to see his face when I strolled into class!" Sirius said laughing. Hermione, Ginny, and Ron gaped at him.
"How do you know professor Lupin?"

note: I'm sorry it took me so long to finish this chapter. I had
some Sirius writer's block. Get it Sirius? Hahaha……
well I thought it was funny… you're no fun. Anyhow, also I'm
sorry this chapter is so short… Who do you guys think should be the
defense professor? Oh, also, do you guys think Sirius should have any
serious love interest? Ooooo, is the jig up already? Will Sirius be
discovered… and why does it matter! I mean it's not like anyone
is listening at the door…
Thanks for the reviews!
