"I was certain there was going to be an all out war down there" Hermione said with a slight frown.
"Yeah, Uncle Remus went all ferial on us didn't he" Chrimson responded with a small chuckle.
"I never want to see him totally lose control" Hermione stated with a shudder.
~*~*~*~*~
Hermione was the first to come to her senses and it wasn't by choice. One moment she was wrapped in the arms of Aidens arms, the next thing she knew she was being yanked backward by a very pissed of werewolf.
Remus was glaring at Aiden with amber eyes. He was snarling and growling at Aiden warning him not to move and was slowly backing up with Hermione in his arms.
"Uncle Remus, it's ok. He was trying to heal me and ..." Hermione tried to explain only to be cut off by a very loud and threatening growl.
Remus was lost in the wolf. Moony had taken over when he preserved a threat to his ward.
"Keep quite young lady. I will deal with you later" he snarled at Hermione who took the hint and shut up right away.
"If I were you Aiden, I would slowly back away and retreat to your room until he has calmed down enough not you kill you on sight" Salina said to Aiden while never approaching him but keeping her eyes firmly looked on Remus and her daughter.
Salina knew he was exceedingly dangerous at the moment but they couldn't afford to bring the council down on them.
Chrimson slowly made her way over to Remus and took Hermiones hand in hers.
"I'll take Hermione to our room ok Godfather. Then you can come up and punish her later when you might not kill her" Chrimson said in a calm voice, using his title of Godfather to try and make Remus come back to his senses while also taking his attention away from Aiden, giving him a chance to escape, which he took gratefully.
Remus looked hard at Chrimson, then at Hermione who he was squeezing in his arms. He slowly started to overcome Moonys rage, but not before Moony, looking deep into Hermiones eyes and demanded "stay away from him or I will kill him. I don't like him and will not tolerate him being around you or your sister in future" and with that warning Moony relented control back to Remus.
"I'm sorry Uncle Remus, but it really was nothing. My throat was really sore and he said that it was the only way to heal it quickly so I didn't think about it and did it. I just wanted to be able to use my throat again so we can do the spell tomorrow" Hermione babbled out.
In truth Hermione had never been so scared of Remus before. She knew he would never hurt her intentionally but he would kill others if he felt they were a threat to her and their family.
Remus pulled both Hermione and Chrimson close to him and hugged them tightly. He had never felt so scared of losing his girls, as he had come to think of them.
"Please don't give me heart failure like that again" he begged Hermione "and please heed the warning you have been given. I don't want to kill him but I will if he goes near either of you again do I make myself clear?" he said to both of them.
"Yes Godfather" both girls replied.
"Now that the drama is over, when was it decided the spell will be cast tomorrow?" came Harrys voice from behind them.
"Oh ... I guess we forgot to mention that part" Chrimson said.
"Yeah I guess you did" Ron snidely said.
'I wonder if I could just throw him through the vial and get away with it' Chrimson thought.
As if reading her sisters mind Hermione just shook her head and began to laugh softly.
"Yeah it has to be tomorrow, as it's Halloween" Hermione managed to say without bursting into laughter at the death glare Chrimson was still giving Ron.
"Ahhh yes, I was wondering if that was why you had both been conspiring off to the side recently" Salina said with a small smile.
"Yeah, anyway we've been up all night so we're gonna go to bed. Good night everyone" Chrimson said quickly pulling Hermione along behind her.
