A/N: Another where he lands in someone else.

… in the Delta Quadrant.

Sirius groaned as he regained consciousness.

As soon as he opened his eyes, he immediately closed them. "Too bright," he groaned out.

Just a few seconds later, a voice sounded nearby. "Welcome back, Mr. Suder."

Immediately he decided that the voice that spoke was entirely too cheerful. Very gradually, he opened his eyes and saw a bald man wearing a strange uniform.

"Who?" he croaked out.

The man's face took on a concerned look. "Mr. Suder. You are in sickbay. You were shot by a Kazon rifle during your efforts to assist Misters Paris and Nelix to retake Voyager. According to scans, you should have died. But somehow, you survived and were brought to sickbay. You've been unconscious for 48 hours." The man paused and said, "Do you understand?"

Sirius' eyes had become more accustomed to the light and so he could open his eyes further. "Truthfully? No." He then immediately began to attempt to sit up.

The man immediately began to assist him to sit up. As he looked around he saw a couple of other beds that had people in them. A man was standing nearby whose posture screamed "guard." A pretty, young looking woman started walking over, her face screaming "nurse." As he looked at her, he immediately got a sense of her thoughts.

He immediately shut his eyes and concentrated on his occlumency, a necessary skill he had practiced after to help keep him sane after Azkaban. As he came to a sense of himself, he immediately noticed: His body felt entirely different than he was used to.

With that realization, he opened his eyes back up and looked down at himself. Raising his hands, he saw they were someone else's. He looked back up at the man. "Okay. Where in Merlin's name am I and whose body do I seem to be wearing?"

The man's eyes widened immediately. He tapped a thing on his chest and, after it chirped, he spoke. "Sickbay to Bridge."

A voice sounded, a pleasant contralto with an American accent. "Go ahead, Doctor."

"Captain. I do believe that you and Mr. Tuvok should come to sickbay. Mr. Suder is awake – but there seems to be complications."

"We're on our way."

The man pulled up a small device and pointed it at Sirius. He moved backwards. "What is that?" he asked.

The man looked at him and after a moment's pause replied, "It's a scanning device. I'm checking your vital signs and physical health."

"Ah. Like a wand. Okay then." He relaxed. "Go ahead."

The man paused again, but then moved the little device around him while looking at a small thing in his hand. Even as he was finishing, an attractive woman walked in, her bearing saying "I'm in charge." Behind her was another man, his face stoic.

And he had, hand-to-God, pointed ears.

Sirius was seriously wondering where in the hell he was.

She looked at him for along moment and then turned to the man who had helped him. "Doctor," the woman asked, "what seems to be the problem?"

The doctor replied to the woman, "Mr. Suder woke up a few minutes ago. However, his responses were," the man paused, "unexpected."

"What do you mean?" she asked, glancing at him.

Sirius noticed the man with ears looking at him, one eyebrow raised.

The doctor began to move to talk and then stopped. He turned back to Sirius and asked, "What's the last thing you remember?"

Sirius considered for a moment. He could lie, but this was just fucking weird enough that he decided to tell the truth, Statute of Secrecy be damned. "The last thing I remember was being in the Ministry on a rescue mission to save my godson."

At his voice, the woman looked at him in shock. The taller man's other eyebrow shot up to match the first. Sirius continued.

"He and his friends were fighting Death Eaters, followers of that Dark wanker, Voldemort. Me and the rest of the Order immediately began helping them out in order to protect them. To get her attention away from Harry and his friend, I think it was Neville Longbottom, I immediately engaged with my bitch of a cousin, Bellatrix. Too bad that I got cute with her – never taunt a crazy woman hell bent on killing you and all of your friends. Just put her down. Anyway, by sheer luck she got a shot through my defenses and her spell knocked me back toward the Veil and I think I fell through. I remember hearing some voices after, but I was barely conscious. And then, I woke up here." He looked around. "Just where in the name of Merlin am I?"

The doctor just looked at him with an almost cheerful consideration. The woman, the Captain, as well as the others in the room listening, all had looks of complete shock on their faces. The man with the pointed ears said one word: "Fascinating."


A/N: Sirius' magic, with Sudor's ability as a betazoid, as well as Sirius' lack of decorum, would make a most amusing character on Voyager.
