Chapter 3:

She had to admit it, she was very rude to Professor Black, He only greeted her on his one personal way..and she just snapped at him.

Rhiannon took a deep breath and let it out.

Only 10 minutes ago did she arrived at Hogwarts and was already regretting her decision. "C'mon Rhys is too late to turn away" she told herself, at least she had a nice room.

"I guess is I should go to the great hall quick as possible" she looked at the big clock in the wall "oh shoot! Im late!" she left her room and headed to the great hall with fast pace..well running you could say.

----------------------------------

"- and ending my yearly speech, I want to present to you the new staff of Hogwarts...well not so new, Professor Remus Lupin has accepted to teach you all Defense Against Dark Arts again" all the students clapped their hands as hard as they could.

"And Professor Sirius Black will be teaching Quidditch and flying lessons for the first years, taking Madame Hooch's place now that she has accepted a job as the Irish's Coach!" Sirius also got that same amount of clapping especially from Griffindor table and...all the girls.

Rhiannon appear behind the Staff table, and sat quickly beside a person with an awfully familiar hair.

Tonks felt someone next to her and quickly turn to identify that person.

She went paled.

"Nymph..." Rhiannon tried to speak but tear threaten to fall from her eyes, in the same dilemma was Nymphadora Tonks.

"And now a new addition to the staff, Aurors grace us with their presence" Dumbledore Pause for a moment, "As you know now is a time where we must be take high cautions, for evil will not have mercy in those that are innocent...nor the one following it, you have already met Professor Moody and some of you Miss Nymphadora Tonks, now I give you Miss Rhiannon Bield who will be in charge of the Security of Hogwarts, please, give them a warm welcome" claps and claps were heard and Dumbledore finished by making his way to sit in his usual place, before, he stopped behind Rhiannon, he set a hand in her shoulder and whispered in her ear "You made the right choice".

One of Rhiannon's tears dropped down her face, she wiped it away and stared at Prof. Dumbledore "You always had the right thing to say grandpa" she said giving him a sweet smile, Her grandfather smiled back.

-------------------------------------

"Really, if there were many Aurors like Miss Bield...I would definitely go after the job" said Seamus Finningan, some of his classmates started chuckling.

"Say, Tonks and Miss Bield seem uncomfortable beside each other...don't you think?" Hermione commented, still staring at the pair.

"Yeah, your right" said Harry.

"So...how...how have you been?"Rhiannon asked Tonks without taking her eyes off her plates. "Fine I...guess" murmured Tonks also not taking her eyes of her plate.

"I'm...sorry" Rhiannon finally looked at her " I just...I'm sorry I left without an explanation...but I really needed time alone..."

Tonks look at her old friend " Ooh Rhys! You don't have to be sorry, I'm the one who had to be sorry...as my friend I was suppose to help you the best way and try to find you...maybe I was so mad at myself that I really didn't try that hard" taking Rhiannon hands " I'm so happy to see you!"

"Me too Nymphie" Rhiannon said finally relived to clear things with her friend.

------------------------

meanwhile

----------------------

"Say Remus do you think that I should scare the first years with the grim?" suggested Sirius while looking at the little kids.

"Sirius...'sigh'... if you do that you'll terrorize them...which would be a very bad idea..next thing we know is that they are calling their parents and ask to be taken out of the school" Said Remus before continuing eating his meal.

"Mmmm...I think your right...maybe to the second years" said Sirius smiling. Which cause Remus to only rolled his eyes.

-------------------------------------

"How did this happened again?" Rhiannon was confuse, Tonks in love with Prof. Lupin? And he like her back and are not together?.

They where patrolling the corridors of Hogwarts while talking, it was duty for all the professors to do so, before everyone went to sleep.

"Well he is handsome and nice, and very good man..." Tonks had this little shine in her eyes while talking about Remus.

"Okay okay! I got the point!" Rhiannon said laughing " but if he likes you also, why are you guys not together then?" at this Tonks gave a frustrated sigh.

"Uurggh!!"

"I'll take that as ' there is a problem'" Rhiannon smiled sympathetically to her friend.

"He says that his a werewolf...and we cant be together...the end! Nothing else!" Tonks' hair went all red...apparently that thought made her very angry.

"Well I think you need have to wait maybe-" Rhiannon stopped talking.

Footsteps.

"Who goes there?" she asked

-----------------------------------

"So tell me again why you decide to 'break' my dear cousin's heart?" Sirius was making the whole this conversation just to unnerve poor Remus.

"I would be breaking her heart Sirius, it would be more of ' trying to protect her from myself'" Remus was getting tired of Sirius' attempts to make him angry...maybe Sirius just forgot how hard it was to put Remus in the simply angry state.

"C'mon Moony...live a little, you and Nymphadora do a very lovely couple I must say" Sirius said chuckling.

"Padfoot..." Remus warned.

"Shh! Someone is coming our way" Sirius pushed Remus to the wall and paid attention to the voices.

"Well he is handsome and nice, and very good man..."

"Okay okay! I got the point!" Rhiannon said laughing " but if he likes you also, why are you guys not together then?"

"Uurggh!!"

"I'll take that as ' there is a problem'"

"He says that he's a werewolf...and we cant be together...the end! Nothing else!"

"You know it would be better if we just didn't just hide like if it was filch looking for us when we where younger" Remus said raising an eye brow at Sirius and walking to the middle of the corridor.

"Well I think you need have to wait maybe-" Rhiannon stopped talking.

"Who goes there?"

"Just Remus and Sirius nothing to be worry about" Remus said walking towards them.

Now Rhiannon could see better since the light of the corridors weren't very high at this time of hour they couldn't have seen them before.

"Oh...Prof...I mean Remus is good to see you this evening" Rhiannon smiled at the professor and saw Sirius joining Remus on his Right side. " and you too Prof. Black"

"It a pleasure to see both of you too Miss Bield...Cuz, and Please...just Sirius" Sirius smirked at her. And smiled at his cousin.

An idea conjure it self in Rhiannon's mind "Well this is nice...Sirius would you mind walking with me the rest of the patrolling?"

Sirius couldn't believe his hears " I just wanted to apologize for snapping at you in the train" She glace at Tonks " Nymph you can keep patrolling with Remus can you?" before Remus or Tonks could object or say anything in the matter, Rhiannon quickly grabbed Sirius' arm and pulled him with her, leaving a very Confuse Remus and a very Happy Tonks.
