Chapter 7: Summer.

Tonks and SF ended up spending half of their time off with her mother, and the other half enjoying some peace and quiet before heading back to the grind stone and standard auror training classes again. SF was pushing himself even more than before to try and improve his skills, so that he wouldn't be as badly injured the next time he had to fight.

Tonks did go back to Hogwarts on the day that the students which had been attacked were revived with the mandrake potion. She stood off to one side and gave a small smile as she watched family and friends gathered around to welcome them back.

The next few days after the awakening of the students were spent training and learning new spells and skills. Amelia stopped by the flat every now and then to make sure everything was going to be ready for the first few weeks of summer. Tonks once again offered to find another place for those weeks, but Amelia kept on telling her it would be fine, since besides the nights and weekends both groups wouldn't be in the flat anyway.

The first fine sunny summer weekend found Tonks sitting out on the beach the town was built next to, a happy little sigh escaping her lips as she laid back in a one piece white swim suit that had a hole in the front to show her toned stomach and was also low cut in the back. The whole thing was very tight all around, as she was in her natural form, but the costume she had brought was for her smaller form, with much small hips and breasts.

SF was lying at her feet enjoying a short nap for the moment, every now and then his tail would start wagging and patting the sand. Tonks smiled at her partner whenever this happened, and patted him on the head with her foot, before going back to working on her tan whilst reading a romance novel her mother had recommended to her.

A hour later Tonks awoke from her little romance fiction world when SF raised his head suddenly and looked over her shoulder, giving a small bark of greeting to whoever was walking up behind the pair, his head quickly returning to its resting place at her feet.

Looking over her shoulder, Tonks gave a small smile and waved to Susan and her friend Hannah; both girls were in simple one piece swimsuits of Hufflepuff colours of black with yellow stripes up both sides. The two girls returned Tonks' greeting with a smile and a wave, before rolling out their own towels and putting up their umbrellas next to Tonks' spot. They both called out a greeting to SF, who huffed and rolled over a little, going back to sleep.

"Don't mind him girls. Its thanks to your aunt, Susan. She decided to put us with her old partner, friend, and trainer Mad-Eye, and he has been working both of us pretty hard the last week or so. SF has decided that the first day of our weekend is for sleeping and relaxing." Tonks said, after girls had given her a look at the lack of SF's response to their greeting.

SF gave another huff, as if to say he agreed with what Tonks had told them. He then moved his head a little and rested it on her leg. Tonks smiled, patted his head again and turned back to look at both Susan and Hannah. Both of them had started to put some sunscreen on their exposed flesh and each other's back. "I take it that SF and I have a few extras for dinner tonight… is your aunt going to be eating with us Susan?"

"Yes she is, and said not to worry about making dinner tonight. She said she would take care of it, and that the rest of us can enjoy the beach and sea until sun down. Oh, and you have to look after us while we're down here." Susan said, taking up a school book and started to read, while Hannah went to take a look around and flirt a little with a few of the local boys, claiming she needed to improve her social skills for the new school year.

Tonks laughed and nodded, poking SF in the head and telling him to use his skills to watch Hannah and Susan whenever one of them went beyond her sight. SF huffed, gave a large yawn, got to his feet and shook the sand out his fur, before moving over to a shadowy outcropping of rock, jumped up onto it, and lay back down, making sure that Hannah stayed within sight..

Susan laughed out loud at the sound of a growl coming from SF, when he saw Hannah suddenly move towards another group of young people. She looked over at Tonks, she too was laughing at the low growls and barks coming from her partner, "Maybe I can talk Hannah into staying closer so that he can enjoy his break and not have to chase her around the whole beach."

"No, leave her be and don't pay him any mind. He'll either get tired of it and go to sleep soon, or head back to the flat and catch up on his reading." Tonks said, waving off Susan's concern, as she leaned back and rolled over onto her stomach, "Put a bit of that tanning lotion I brought with me on my back dear, and then you can go back to what you were doing."

Susan nodded and did as she was asked, keeping an eye on SF out of the corner of her eye, watching him looking around now. He had clearly giving up on sleeping at the moment and was keeping a close eye on Hannah.

Tonks gave a small smile, knowing that he was watching over them now and that nothing was likely to happen to them. She gave a nod of thanks to Susan when she was done, before she started to doze off again, enjoying the warmth in the sun and the quiet.

She was woken a little later, when SF gave a sharp bark and growl close to her head. She was greeted by the sight of a group of young men who had been sneaking up on her, by the guilty looks on their faces. A small sigh escaped her lips as she got up and moved to stand next to SF; patting his head to show she wasn't upset at him for waking her.

"Is there something I can do for you boys?" She asked, calmly getting to her feet fully and placing her hands on her hips, tilting her head to one side as she does, knowing that her current outfit and the pose she was in now would either make them drooling messes, or intimidate them into behaving.

The teens, who all seemed to be around her age, looked from her to SF, who was sitting in front of her calmly, his eyes never leaving them for a moment. One of them was being pushed forward a bit while the others jumped back a step because of the looks SF was giving them.

"Ah, we were wondering if you wanted to join us clubbing tonight?" The boy asked, looking Tonks up and down with a nervous smile, which quickly vanished as Tonks raised an eyebrow.

"Sorry boys, but I have plans, and spending time in a little room with a heap of hormone driven teenagers isn't on that list… besides, none of you have looked me once in the face." Tonks said, bringing her arms across her chest, hiding her breasts a little, as they had hadn't looked above her neck once.

The boys looked a little insulted at this, but didn't do anything as SF had gotten to his feet now, and was slowly starting to turn a circle around the group. All of them noticed that Tonks had also moved one leg back a little to even out her weight in a fighting stance, one that none of them had seen before.

The boys seemed to think for a moment before nodding and moving off. SF watched every step they took and gave a nod when they are gone from sight. He looked up at Tonks, gave a small bark, and turned towards the tavern, which they could see from their spot.

Tonks nodded at the silent message, calling out over her shoulder to Susan and Hannah, both of who had been sitting to one side, watching everything Tonks had done with the group of boys. Both of them were wondering if they could get her to show them how to intimidate boys like that, "You two get everything together. I don't know about you two, but I've had enough of the beach, and could do with a cold drink and a meal."

Both girls nodded, and quickly had everything packed and evened out between the four of them, SF having his little saddle bag on his back with their books in it. He lead the way back to the flat, Tonks having paused long enough to pull a little skirt on, whilst Susan and Hannah pulled an over sized t-shirt to hide their swimsuits, or at least better then Tonks' skirt did.

Amelia looked up when the back door to the flat opened up, a book in hand being the only clue to what she had been up to while the youngsters had been out enjoying the beach. She looked them all over for a moment, before giving a nod to SF who had shrugged off the pack and was now heading to his and Tonks' room. He pushed open the dog door and entered the room, only to return a moment later with a glasses case hanging from his mouth.

Tonks smiled and help SF put his glasses on, which made the two girls giggle at the sight of a wolf with glasses on. SF gave them a look before jumping up onto the couch and used his nose to open up a book, a paw coming up to flick through pages until he got to the page he wanted.

"Well, there's something you don't see every day… a wolf with glasses." Susan said with a laugh, SF snorted before going back to his book, while everyone, save Amelia, laughed at him, before they went off to change for dinner. Or, in Amelia's case, to get the salad ready and cut up some chicken for SF.

The night's meal passed calmly, with Hannah and Susan looking away from SF, who was happily eating his meal, but the sight of the raw meat being eaten turning their stomach a little. They knew that he wasn't able to eat cooked meat yet, so they went back to their meals without complaint, Tonks being the only one able to look at SF without a problem.

Not long after the meal, everyone was gathered around the TV watching the evening news, enjoying a book or, in Susan and Hannah's case, the latest issue of Teen Witch Weekly, both giggling every now and at whatever article they were reading. SF gave them a look whenever they got to loud, which only made them giggle even louder at the sight of a wolf with glasses glaring at them.

It was close to midnight when Tonks got to her feet, looking around the room, she gave a small smile at the sight of Susan and Hannah watching a late night movie with looks of wonder, as they hadn't seen many Muggle movies before, Amelia was reading her book calmly, as was SF. "I'm heading to bed, SF. It's a Saturday, so you know what that means."

SF rolled his eyes but nodded, going back to his book. Both, Susan and Hannah staring at Tonks with a questioning look, but didn't ask why Saturday was so special to her. Tonks gave a small smile as she walked into her room, pausing only long enough to tap a small rune carved into the doorframe. As she left, Amelia shook her head, as she knew what that rune meant.

"She is having a little private time girls, if you're wondering why she said that and tapped that rune." Amelia said, when her niece and her friend gave each other questioning looks. SF nodded in agreement and even gave a small shudder, which didn't go unnoticed by the head of the DMLE, "She's a screamer I take it?"

SF nodded and went back to his book, both Susan and Hannah turned a lovely shade of pink at the images conjured up by Amelia, before quickly focusing back on the TV; trying to push the thoughts of what Tonks was up to in her room out of their minds.

The next morning found SF sitting on the couch right where the others had left him, after they headed to bed an hour or so after Tonks. It looked like he hadn't moved since they had all last seen him, it was only the fact that the book was now in front of him, which it had been the previous evening, that indicated that he had not stayed in that position all night.

Susan had started to make a late breakfast when Tonks showed up with a happy little smile on her face and dressed in the same swimsuit from the other day. She sat down and said thanks to Amelia who had pushed a steaming pot of tea and a mug over to her; she then leaned back in her seat, staring over her shoulder to see SF was watching her closely and every now and then sniffing the air.

"Rooms all yours boy, and yes, I already opened the window and vented it." Tonks said, SF gave a nod of thanks and moved to the bedroom, the door snapping shut as he flicked his tail against another rune lower on the doorframe.

Susan stared at Tonks with a questioning look, which the young Auror in training answered without even looking up from her cup of tea, "It's a deal we have, after he once came in on me during the first months we started living together. I get the room all Saturday night and he gets to sleep as long as he wants the Sunday morning. And as to venting the room, the scent left by what I was up to in there is very strong and he reckons he can't sleep while it is hanging in the air."

No one passed comment, as they finished eating. Tonks headed down to the beach to relax a little and enjoy the sun, while Susan and Hannah did a little of their summer homework. Amelia headed into the office for a bit to get some paperwork that needed urgent attention, but came back to spend time with her niece like she had promised for the summer.

The next few weeks passed like this. It was the end of July that something happened out of the ordinary. Amelia was the one to delivers this news when she got back from work that Friday night, a few hours after Tonks got out of training.

Tonks had been relaxing in the bath when Amelia came home, with SF laid in front of the fireplace after Tonks had given him a bath, and she nearly tripped over him as she exited the Floo. Susan and Hannah were both sitting on the couch watching some TV whilst also doing their homework.

Amelia didn't say anything as she went to the kitchen and got herself a drink. Susan, who had seen her Aunt like this before, decided not to say anything and whispered that Hannah should also keep her mouth shut as her aunt was clearly in a bad mood at the moment.

"Where is Tonks?" Amelia called out after a few minutes of nursing a cold beer she had pulled out of the fridge, looking at Susan and Hannah who were still on the couch. SF moved to one of the chairs and was now sitting there, calmly looking at her with a questioning look.

Both girls pointed to the bathroom, the sound of soft humming coming from the other side clearly stating that Tonks was having a bath and was relaxing after a hard day of training under Made-Eye Moody.

Walking up to the door, Amelia knocked once and then waited for the sound of the water splashing and Tonks cursing at being interrupted, "Trainee, I need to talk to you about a member of your family." A cry of understanding, the only answer needed, as Amelia moved back to the kitchen.

SF watched Amelia the whole time, but didn't move until Tonks came with a towel around her shoulders, drying her hair a little, the short bathrobe showing that her work outs with Moody had only toned her legs even more then they had been before.

Amelia didn't even look at Tonks, her beer sitting forgotten on the table in front of her. Tonks moved into a seat across from her and waited patiently for her boss to talk, "Tonks, did you know your cousin Sirius Black before he was locked away in Azkaban for his crimes?"

Tonks looked a little surprised at this question, but did answer after thinking about her answer for a few moments, as SF moved and sat down next to her, rubbing his head into her leg, which helped, calming her a little, "I met him a few times, as he and my mother were pretty close back when I was little. I was around five or six, I think, when I last saw him last, as he had stolen little Harry from his parents. He said his reason for doing it was to give them a little alone time, but my mother told me later, he wanted to cause some trouble with a prank and get Mr. Potter in trouble with Mrs. Potter." A smile lingered on her lips, at the memory of her cousin.

Amelia gave a small nod and a sigh, answering Tonks' questioning look, before she could even voice it, "This morning, he managed to escape from his cell in Azkaban, and the island itself. No one found out until the guards did their patrol at the beginning of their shift, which means he left at some point during the night. I was wondering if you might have had any information that might be of help in tracking him down."

Tonks bit her lip for a moment as she didn't know what to say, but after a few minutes, she knew she had to say something to Amelia, as there was something she and her mother had always believed that few others did, and she hoped that her boss would be understanding, and even believe her, if only a little.

"Madam, there is something I have to say about my cousin. It's something that my mother and I believe. We think that is he is innocent of the crimes he was thrown into Azkaban for. We both know he wasn't given a trial. Also, the things they said he did couldn't be possible. He loved the Potters as if they were his own family, and he always did everything he could to avoid injuring Muggles whenever he was caught in a fight with any Death Eaters."

"If I didn't know you were a Hufflepuff in Hogwarts, I would have called you a Gryffindor, for your bravery in telling me that, Tonks…" Amelia trailed off for a moment before giving a small smile and looking Tonks in the eyes, "I also believe there's been a miscarriage of justice here, Trainee. I have also read the reports, and the fact that he didn't have a trial is a very big problem. If you had a bit more experience, I would give you the job of hunting him down and brining him in to me for said trial. But for now, concentrate on your training."

Tonks sighed in relief that someone else believed her, besides her own mother. Amelia gave another smile before heading off to have her own bath and to clear her head and work out what to do about the Sirius Black problem. Tonks moved to her room to get her night clothes on and spend some time with the girls to help them with their homework, and also enjoy some quiet time.

SF, meanwhile, watched and listened to all of this, seeming to think on the whole subject for a moment, before moving to get one of his books and settle down to read for the afternoon, wondering what the future might hold for them now.

Information

As a young man, Albus Dumbledore joined the Auror Corps to help hunt down, and bring in the men who attacked his home years before and ended in the result of his sister's death. He graduated at the head of his class group, and within a few years, had hunted down all of the men, who turned out to be Muggles, and helped bring them in to face charges.

For fifty years, Albus put his work before his own life, and brought in a number of Dark Wizards and Witches, including former Dark Lord Gellert Grindlewald. He retired however, when Nicolas Flamel offered him a post as his apprentice and, over the years, helped him find out all the uses they could get out of Dragon's Blood.

Not long after he finished his work with Flamel, Albus was approached with the job offer of Transfiguration Professor at Hogwarts, which he took, and has remained within the school ever since, taking over as Headmaster not long after he turned one hundred, succeeding previous Headmaster Armando Dippet. He has remained Headmaster ever since.
