The Weasleys, Hermione, Tonks, and Kingsley floo to the Leaky Cauldron. They enter Diagon Alley and make their way to Gringotts. Fred and George take Ginny to their vault while Ron stays with Hermione to change her money and Mrs. Weasley goes down to the Weasley Family Vault. They walk out of Gringott's shortly and seperate. Mrs. Weasley goes with Ron and Hermione, while Fred and George take Ginny to get her school supplies.

The group is to meet a few hours later at the Leaky Cauldron. The three teens are on their way to meet their mother and brother when Ginny spots a man about to be attacked by a man in a black cloak. She screams. The man is pushed out of the way by the man he was walking with a red light hits the second man in the chest. He goes flying into the side of a building. The first man runs towards him but two men grab him and disappear.

Ginny and the twins rin over to see if the man is alright. They push their way thru the crowd and discover that the man that hit the building was Remus Lupin and he is dead. Ginny cries into Fred's shoulder as George runs to get his mother. Molly, Ron, and Hermione run up to see Remus dead. George calls Dumbledore after he talks to his mother and he arrives with George a few minutes later. He levitates the body.

"I'll take him to Hogwarts and inform you when the funeral is scheduled for." Dumbledore and the body disappear with a pop when he produces a portkey.

Meanwhile, Harry is waking up in the Hospital Wing. He groans as he reaches to find his glasses. He starts to sit up when cool hands push him back down and place his glasses on his face.

"Mr. Potter, you are not to get out of that bed till I've examined you." Madame Pomphrey says as she steps away. She uses her wand to scan him for any injures and just as she is finishing Dumbledore arrives with Remus' body. He places the body on a bed across the room he turns to get Poppy when he notices that she is tending to Harry. He is momentarily surprised because he didn't know that Harry was here.

Harry jumps up from the bed and rushes to the body, crying and screaming, "No Moony, no!" He leaps onto the body and starts to weep and shake. Poppy tries to lead him from the body but he just tightens his hold. Dumbledore tries to stupefy him but a shield forms around the two. Albus walks to the fireplace and calls for Severus in the dungeons.

"Severus, I need you to come to the Hospital Wing!"

Severus snorts from his seat in front of the fire and looks as to say no when he says, "Why?"

"Harry was brought in and I arrived with the dead body of Remus Lupin and we can't get him away from the body. I need you to help me get him to bed."

Severus sighs, he was hoping to not have to see Potter every again unless for meals or in the hallway. He shakes his head and watches as the headmaster's head leaves his fireplace. He grabs some floo powder and goes to the hospital wing. He enters to total chaos.

Poppy, Albus, and Severus all three grab ahold of Harry and pull him from the body. Severus carries him to a bed while Poppy goes to get a dreamless sleep potion. They give Harry the potion and watch as he struggles to stay awake and go back to the body. He fails and falls asleep. Poppy goes to start the exam and funeral spells on Remus while Severus and Dumbledore go to their respective offices. Albus starts the process for Remus' funeral.

Harry doesn't wake up for two days and when he finally wakes up it's the day before Remus' funeral. He wakes up surround by the familiar red hair of eight Weasleys and the bushy brown hair of Hermione. He smiles as Mrs. Weasley places his glasses on his face. He looks and smile at each person till he remembers about Remus. His shoulders start to shake. Mrs. Weasley grabs him and he buries his head in her shoulder and starts to cry harder. She strokes his back.

"That's right let it all out. He was like a father to you. He'll be missed by us all." She murmurs to him. He sniffles a few times and looks up just as Ginny, the twins, Bill, and Charlie give Hermione and Ron disgusted looks. He is confused by the looks because once they notice him looking they look at him sadly.

Madame Pomphrey bustles over and examines him. She lets him leave and they are met just outside the Hospital Wing doors by Professor Dumbledore. The group follows Dumbledore to a painting of a phoenix and snake locked in battle beside a dragon. Dumbledore says the password "light's victory" and the dragon nods his head and the painting opens.

The room they walk into is a huge common room the size of Gryffindor Tower's. The room is done in neutral shades of grays and browns. They notice two doors.

"The door on the left is the bedroom and the door on the right is th bathroom. There is a door in the bedroom that goes directly into the bathroom. The group nods their heads.

"I'll be back in about an hour to take you into Diagon Alley to get some clothes for the funeral tomorrow, Harry." Molly whispers and Harry nods his head. He shuffles towards the couch and sits down. Ginny and the twins join him, each offering their silent support. Molly follows Dumbledore into the hall. Charlie lifts Ginny and sits her on his lap and him and Bill squeezon onto the couch. Hermione and Ron look around and sit on the chairs across from the couch. No one says anything. Molly reenters to the somber scene. The twins gently guide Harry to the fireplace and call out the Leaky Cauldron.

A few hours later Harry is returned to his room and led to bed. Molly tucks him in and leans down to kiss his forehead.

"I know this is hard on you Harry. I'll be back in the morning to help you get ready." She whispers before she leaves.

Molly walks in to find Harry laying in the same spot as before with dark circles under his eyes. She can tell he hasn't been to sleep. She whispers comforts into his ear as she leads him to the bathroom. She quickly and effeciently helps him clean up and get dressed. She leads him back to his common room to find her children and Hermione waiting on them. She can see the sadness etched in the faces of all but Hermione and Ron, they look pleased and smug.

The group makes their way to Great Hall where they are met by Professors Snape, McGonagall, and Dumbledore. Dumbledore hold out an old newspaper and everyone grabs ahold. Harry stumbles as the portkey deposits them in a large graveyard. Bill and Charlie gently grab Harry's arms and lead him towards Remus Lupin's grave. They feel the boy start shaking the closer they get, when suddenly he breaks free of them and launches himself onto the casket.

"Please, papa Moony, wake up. You can't leave me; I don't want to be alone. Please, i prormise I'll be good. I love you." Harry cried over and over. Bill and Charlie wrestle him away from the casket and glance around to see the sympathetic looks on Molly, Ginny, Fred, George, and Snape's faces. They look to see a mask of indifference on Dumbledore's face and Ron and Hermione trying to hold in their laughter. Snape walks over and gives Harry a calming draught. Harry relaxes enough to be led to a seat between the two oldest Weasley sons.

The words flow over Harry in his numb state as the funeral is started. He never notices when Bill places a rose in his hands and leads him to the casket, so lost in his grief. He never notices the looks of pity or scorn he receives. All he can see his grief and death of his papa Moony. He never notices the coffin being put into the ground beside his parents and Sirius, he only sees Moony hitting the wall over and over in his mind. He pays no mind when ushered into a car and finally when he is ushered into a seat at Gringott's.

He hears catches of the conversation.

"leave everything to my godson, Harry Potter, he will know be known as Harry James Black-Potter."

"emancipated and it is legal and binding. I make Harry my heir and leave him everything, he will now be known as Lord Harry James Lupin-Black-Potter."

The last words caught his full attention, "be safe, cub. However I died it wasn't your fault. I love you and know I'm happy and with my mate and two best friends."

Harry starts to cry and leans into Bill's shoulder. He never sees Hermione, Ron, and Dumbledore get angry because they are now cutoff from getting money from Harry's school vault. Bill nudges him and tells harry he needs to sign some papers. He caries Harry to the goblin and holds him as he signs the papers. Harry is given a copy and asks the goblin to put them in his vault for now. The goblin nods and snaps his fingers and the papers disappear.

They leave Gringotts and walk to the Leaky Cauldron where Fred and George help Harry floo back to Hogwarts. Bill appears besdie them and picks Harry up. He carries him to his room and puts him to bed.

Harry doesn't leave his room or even his bed for a week, until Dumbledore sends Dobby asking for Harry to come up to his office. The small elf waits as Harry takes a quick shower and puts on some of his Dursley cast offs. Once finished Dobby grabs Harry's hand and they disappear only to reappear just outside of Dumbledore's office. Harry knocks on the door and Dumbledore says, "Come in Harry."

Harry enters and Dumbledore motions for him to sit.

"Tea? Biscuit? Lemon Drop?" Asks Dumbledore. Harry declines and watches as Dumbledore pops a Lemon Drop into his mouth.

"I've asked you here today to find out if you know who killed Remus Lupin, since you were with him when he was killed."

"Yes sir, it was a Death Eater. I didn't recognize the voice so maybe if I put the memory in a pensive you'll recognize the voice." Harry replies.

Dumbledore nods and gets up. He walks to a cabinet beside his desk and opens it to reveal three pensives. His hand hovers over each for a second as he hesitates on which to let Harry use. He finally decides to let Harry use the middle pensive. All the while thinking 'How long has it been since I used this one? I haven't used the middle one in over fifteen years, there shouldn't be any memories in it.'

"Now Harry I need you to put the memory of the attack in here. I'm sure you remember how to pur your memories in here."

Harry nods and starts to think of the memory when the fireplace flashes green and Arthur Weasley appears in the fire. Dumbledore turns to look at Harry.

"Take the pensive back to your room and I'll come and get it later. Good-night, my boy."

Harry nods and leaves taking the pensive with him. Harry returns to his rooms and sits on his bed. He takes his wand and stirs the silver liquid in the pensive when suddenly he is pulled in.

He returns twenty minutes later shaking.
