Chapter Three.

Harry rushed up the stairs leading up to the office of the Professor of Defense against the Dark Arts and knocked on the opened door. "Remus, can I have a word with you?"

"Oh about what, Harry?" asked Remus, as he turned from the fire which he was poking at.

"Do you think we could overturn Sirius's conviction?"

"What?" Remus asked shocked.

"Do you think . . . ?"

"I heard you the first time, Harry." Remus stated holding a hand up. "What you are saying is something that probably could never be achieved. It would take someone who would risk losing everything to try that and plus Sirius would have to agree to appear before the courts but that would never happen as they would only arrest him and give him over to the Dementors."

"I know that. But I was just wondering if we could try."

"Sirius would probably most likely be thrilled but he would not hold out much hope that he would be set free,"

"But he should be allowed the chance to have the trial that he never got. They threw him into prison without so much of one,"

Remus looked at the young boy and knew he had to let him have the hope that the Wizardry world would give a known murderer a trial that he didn't get in the first place. But with the one who put him in jail dead, it might be possible to get him a new trial. "I'll let Sirius know when I see him next. Now tell me about why you are asking this?"

Harry scratched the back of his head nervously. "Well, it was Selene's idea. She heard what happened with Sirius and thought it was shameful that they didn't give him a proper trial. She thinks they would hold the trial and either properly convict him or set him free."

Remus thought about what he would say next and spoke very carefully, "Well, she might have a point that they might set him free, Harry but it is a long shot and not worth losing Sirius if they do convict him."

"But, Remus, once they saw the truth in the Pensieve that we bring with us which will show the day that Peter was revealed as being alive in the shrieking shack and the night in the graveyard, that should prove to them that Sirius didn't kill anyone as the blasted prat is still alive. Plus that Veritaserum would make them tell the truth even Sirius could not lie under it."

Remus had to chuckle. 'Seems little prongs, thought this out or is this just his wishful thinking?' "Are you saying you put Veritaserum in Sirius and make him tell the truth?"

"About what happened that day and the day we found Peter alive, Remus. I have to help set him free," Harry stated.

"Harry, my boy, Sirius is free, where ever he may roam, he's free," Remus stated, touching the young boy's hand gently.

"But I want to be able to live with him openly as he should. He's innocent of that crime, that Peter blamed him for."

"I know, Harry, I know. But the most important thing is that we know he's innocent,"

"But that's not the same as he being able to walk freely outside without being in his 'other' form. But once he's freed from being an accused murderer, he would be able to walk outside without fear of being hauled off to Azkaban."

"That is true, Harry, but they would most likely disbelieve the facts that we show because I'm a werewolf," Remus stated.

"But I am the one who is considered to be a hero to the Wizardry World, they'll have to believe what I say, right?" asked Harry.

All Remus could do was look shocked at him. His mind went racing with the thoughts of maybe possibly getting Sirius's convictions overturned. "Well, the judge will be the one you will have to convince that Sirius is innocent. How will you get them to retry Sirius, Harry?"

"I want to go over the trial transcripts of that trial or a farce of one to see if the judge will retry a 'convicted murderer' to see if the evidence points in the direction of his guilt or innocence." Harry stated calmly.

"I will see what I can do in getting the transcript to you, Harry, but I doubt that they will send it to you." Remus said.

"Thank you, Remus. Get the letter started so, we can gte the transcript in my hands sooner," Harry stated, as he picked up Remus's quill and pushed some parchment towards him.

All Remus could do was smile as he wrote a letter to the head judge about sending the transcript of Wizardry World against Sirius Black to Harry Potter. After he was finished writing it and sending it on it's way by one of the school owls, he sat back in his chair to think about the day Sirius was arrested. In his memories, he never heard about a trial being held for Sirius at all. 'Did they really not give him one to prove if he was guilty or not? Were they so convinced that Sirius was the one who did that and didn't think to give the man a trial? The judge will let us know when he sends the trial script to Harry.' He waved his wand at the candles to put them out as he ventured to his quarters to get a good night sleep.
