Chapter 8 Getting Down To Business
A few seconds later he landed in the office of Albus Dumbledore , no were near as happy as he was last time he was there. As he appeared in the headmaster he realized he had no clue how or what exactly to say. Albus was just coming out of his back room when Remus got there.
Remus my boy how are you please have a seat. Remus sat down but did not answer him. There was a few minutes of awkward silence, then Albus decided to break it first.
Remus I thought we had a deal before you took Harry away from the only home he really has only ever knew. That's right Albus I thought we did have a deal 3 1/2 years ago when you said you would keep him safe. Remus by boy what are you talking about.
You really don't know do you headmaster. Well let me fill you in, for the last 3 1/2 years those bastards you left Harry with have been abusing him physical and emotional and Iam certain they were starving him most of the time, they made him sleep in a fucking cupboard under the stairs. An if that is not bad enough I come to find out Miss Figg told you about it more that once she thought this was going on and you never even checked on him. How could you Albus I trusted you.
Remus I a sure you I had no idea it was like that. I knew they did not like him, but never did I think Lilys sister would treat him like that. That's right Headmaster you did not think , Lily and James told you how horrible they are I told you more times then once.
Also you would be surprised what Harry remembers. My Mother and I believe he has eidetic memory. Yesterday when he came over Miss Figg house he came in I was about to introduce myself and screamed out Uncle Moony I've missed you. Really Remus, Really Albus he also remembers Voldemort killing his Mother with a green light. The headmaster fell back into his chair with tears in his eyes.
I'm so very sorry Remus I made a horrible mistake I wish I could take it back but I can't. All I can say is I will do my best to be here for you and Harry from now on. I will not ask you to forgive me cause I don't deserve it. If there is anything I can do, to make it easy for you to just say the word and I will do it.
Well they is something. Whatever it is my boy you got it. Ok but let me explain before you say anything ok. Albus nodded yes.
It's about Sirius Black he has been in Azkaban for the last 3 1/2 years without a trial. Now I know all the evidence pointed to him but I have reason to believe he is innocent. Now I know he is my best friend but I really do believe this. I know everyone thinks that he was the secret keeper, now it just the word of a 5 year old but he remembers Sirius and Peter changing places. When I thought about it , it made sense everyone knew James would choose Sirius, so if they changed it to Peter no one would expect that and if they got Sirius he could not tell them anything. Then I thought about it more Peter stopped coming to order meetings never would tell us why, and the meetings he was at, the missions we always talked about we ended up walking into traps. James, Sirius and myself almost died more times then I care to remember.
Sirius would have died before he betrayed any of us. He is my brother I would do anything for him so I am giving him the benefit of doubt. I am not saying he guilty or innocent. All I ask is if you get him a trial and use Veritaserum. Harry deserves both of his Godfather's if Sirius is innocent.
You are right Remus and consider it good and done. The soonest I can set up a trial will be the day after tomorrow. That be great Harry I are moving into our new home tomorrow , I can get my Mom to watch Harry while I'm at the trial.
