A.N. This was NOT originally a chapter, so while this whole nonsensical fic doesn't "flow", this chapter "flows" the least. That makes no sense as well, judging by the looks on your faces that I can't even see. Right. I. am. um... wow, lost the thought as I was typing it. Hmmm....

I DID end up writing this last minute for a reason that is NOT no reason and that reason is that in chapter 4 (originally chapter 3) Remus CANNOT talk about Sirius in public like he knows him UNLESS Sirius is a.) dead OR b.) declared not guilty of all crimes to which he is charged. Which did I go with? Read it and find out. (This is NOT post-OOTP it is sorta post-nothing. Like, whether there are five books or seven or zero out, the content would remain the SAME)


Chapter 3- Trail and Err

The Ministry of Magic- Court Dungeon #2- 10:00 am

"Will the defendant please rise?"

Silence, then the question was repeated, less patiently this time. "Will the defendant please rise?"

"And just exactly," Dumbledore asked calmly, " who is the defendant?"

"Both of them!" Fudge shouted.

"Ah," said Dumbledore, " I see." Then he elbowed the sleeping Sirius sharply.

Sirius shot to his feet and yelled, "I didn't do it!"

"Usually the charges come before the denial Mr. Black," Fudge sneered. " Someone wake Mr. Pettigrew."

Pettigrew was shaken awake by the nearest person. He began to cry. "The tomato made me do it." he sobbed. Sirius burst out laughing.

Fudge, who obviously didn't find this as hilarious as Sirius did, cleared his throat impatiently and loudly. "Ahem. Anyways, the charges are 7 counts of murder in the first degree, being a Death Eater, and you, "he glared at Sirius," are being charged with breaking out of Azkaban as well. How do you plea?"

"I don't plead," Sirius answered flatly. " 'S not dignified."

"It was me!" Peter cried. "I did it! I killed 'em. KILL ME!!"

Fudge looked around the room nervously, then cleared his throat again. " Ah, um, well... I guess that takes care of that then. Life in Azkaban!" He banged his little wooden hammer-thangy. "Dismissed."

"You're free," Dumbledore said to Sirius. "Are you going to celebrate?"

"Course." Sirius answered. "I'm gonna get drunk and love Reme."

Remus rolled his eyes, " I do believe he meant something that you don't normally do."


I crack me up. No, no not really.Lol.
