I was currently packing, today I was moving to #12 Grimmauld Place. My house. I was perfectly happy in Remus' house, when he was there that is. Now he had to move into Grimmauld Place for something to do with the Order. I didn't pay much attention, it's none of my business. I still can't believe all this, a year ago I was being completely ignored unless I was getting snapped at by my mother.
"Ready Beck?" Remus called from the other side of my door.
"Be right there." I called out grabbing my wand. "Done." I said opening the door to see Remus leaning against the door frame.
"Al right, let's go." He said quietly.
"Cheer up a little Remy." I smiled.
"Why should I Becca?" He teased right back.
"I hate that name." I laughed out.
"And I hate, Remy." He twitched pulling a face causing me to laugh harder as I ran down the stairs.
"What 'cha gunna do about it old man?" I said as he came down the stairs shaking his head at me.
"Old man, huh?" He laughed out.
"Let's go now, I just sent your stuff. You have your wand?" He asked. I nodded my head lifting my shirt slightly to show a piece of wood tied to my waist with a ribbon.
"I'm not normal, am I?" I asked slowly seeing the look on his face upon seeing my wand.
"No. No you're not." He said laughing.
"Let's go you crazy old bat." I said grabbing some floo powder. "Number 12 Grimmauld Place." and I was off into the emerald flames.
I stepped out of the fireplace causing a girl to gasp in suprise, "Who are you?" her voice was timid as if she was scared. I was going to reply when a crack filled the room.
"Becky, I'm so gunna get you back for that 'old man' crack." Remus says looking at me.
"I don't know what you are talking about. Remus, I think you're losing it." I said in all seriousness.
"Don't give me that. I'm lived with you long enough." He said looking into my silver eyes, and I threw my head back and laughed.
"You know me too well Remy." I said batting my eyelashes and grinning so much I think he could really see all my teeth.
"Remy?" The girl asked causing Remus and I to jump slightly.
"Hullo Ginny." Remus said looking at the girl. "This is Rebecca." He said knowing I didn't tell her my name, mostly because I didn't know how Remus wanted me to, with or without Black at the end. I smiled brightly at the girl in front of me, and she smiled right back.
"Ginny, who else is here?" The crazy old man Remus asked her.
"Well, mum is here, but of course she always is. Hermione got here last night, Ron, Bill was here earlier I'm not sure if he still is though." She bit her lip and ran a hand though her hair. "I think that's it, but plenty of members have been through this house all day. What's going on?" She asked though it sounded like she didn't plan on asking it outloud.
"I don't know." He said slowly taking a sideways glance at me.
'Of course. Me. That's what's going on. That doesn't make sense you crazy old man.' I thought, "Remus, want to introduce me to the people here?" I asked wanting to talk to him alone momentaraly. He nodded his head and grabbed the bell sleeve of my shirt as if I was going to get lost. I laughed a little and walked out of the room with him.
When we got to an empty hallway, "Remus, what's going on? Tell me right now." I said not walking any further.
"I don't know." He said looking at the door.
"Liar. You lied to Ginny but she couldn't tell. I know you. I know you're lying to me!" I snapped turning him around to look at me.
"Becky, calm down." He said quietly.
"Calm down? Calm down? How the bloody hell can I calm down when the one person I trust is lying to me?" I whispered harshly.
"Becky, you don't understand." Remus started but I didn't let him continue.
"Then make me understand." I nearly yelled. "You should really tell me, it can't be that hard I mean-"
"We aren't sure he's dead." He said cutting me off.
"What?" I whispered.
"The Order's not sure if he's dead." I looked at him for a few minutes then blinked.
"Is that why people have been in and out of here all day?" I finally asked.
"I'm not possitive, but I think so." He said leaning against the wall.
"So he might not be dead?" I asked hopefully.
"Might is the main word there. Becky are you okay?"
"I- I don't know." I whispered leaning against a door only to have it opened causing me to fall backwards.
"Take a look mate. Some angel just fell from the sky." A boy with bright red hair said.
"She couldn't be an angel." Another boy who apearred to be the first's twin said lifting me up.
"And why is that?" I said slowly.
"Because there is no way an angel would wear that." He said looking at my outfit. I smiled.
"Well, angel or not, I'm Rebecca." I said jumping up to sit on a counter, once on there I looked over to the twins.
"I'm Fred." The second boy said, "Does Rebecca have a last name?"
"Remus!" I yelled.
"What?" Remus asked looking puzzled at the door.
"They want to know my last name." I said slowly. The twins looked at eachother.
"Look here George, it's Loopy Lupin." Fred said looking at Remus.
I gasped, "And here I thought I was the only one who gave you a pet name, Remy." I said in mock sadness.
"Becky! Stop calling me Remy." Remus said laughing.
"Why don't you like it? I could always go back to calling you a crazy old man." I offered hopefully.
"I prefer 'Remy' to that." Remus muttered under his breath not thinking I could hear him.
"Remy it is then." I said smiling. I was about to say something when my eyes glazed over.
I was standing in an empty field, where a black shadowy figure stood infront of me. "Go to the Death Chamber. Blow up the veil. Set me free. You can do it princess." The figure whispered.
"Becky? What is it?" Remus asked as tears started pooling in my eyes.
"I know how to save him." I whispered looking up at him with tears slowly slipping from my eyes.
"Who?" He asked quietly.
"Dad." I said in a shattering breath.
