AN: Im really sorry this took so long but I spent the weekend in New York City and couldn't get to a computer! Also it's the final weeks of school and I'm busy so this is shorter than I had hoped to make it.

Chapter 3: The Chapter which is going to fix things.

Snape stood over a very scared looking Remus who had no idea what he was going to do. He was in a very empty hallway with a very annoyed Snape, who was threatening him with

severe bodily harm. Remus brought his arms up to defend his face from any following punches, but they never came. Out of nowhere raced a large black dog who pounced on a

screaming Snape growling and foaming at the mouth. Unfortunately Snape was packing quite a bunch of potions in his inner pockets all of which broke all over him, and the savior

puppy dog. Snape screamed and the poor dog whelped as the potions coated his fur, and began to cause Snape a great discomfort. His head was growing to the size of a watermelon

and his hair was turing blue, he was also covered in boils and he proceeded to run screaming bloody murder to the nurses. The dog took off whimpering and howling something awful,

leaving a stunned Remus flat on his back and wondering how his day could get any worse.

After sitting in the empty hall for awhile Remus decided to head back to the common room and try to apologize to Sirius for acting crazy. If nothing more it would keep him from

getting into anymore physical fights, his jaw hurt and he was sure it was going to be bruised. He searched the common room high and low but found no Sirius, James however was

sitting next to Lily who looked rather annoyed.

"Potter if you don't leave me alone I'm going to hex you into the next decade!"

"Lily, why do you speak such things to me and wound me so? My dearest, my darling, please wound me no longer and consent to go out with me!"

Remus would have laughed at the familiar scene but he was a man on a mission. Hopefully James would have torn his eyes away from Lily long enough to have seen Sirius and know

where he is.

"Hey James you haven't been too busy to notice where Sirius was?"

"Last time I saw him he was running up to the dorm cursing with a blanket over his head, telling anyone who asked that YES, I AM FINE! "

Remus thanked him and left yet again confused, a state he was not often in and it was begining to get on his nerves. When he opened the door to the dorm he saw that Sirius had

closed the curtains around his bed, which Remus had to assume he was now in.

"Sirius?"

"Go away Remus, I'm fine."

Remus was far from convinced. "Sirius please open the curtains..."

"No I don't want to talk to you."

"Sirius look I'm really sorry about everything I said to you earlier, I was being petty and I'm really sorry if I hurt your feelings. I didn't mean a word of it you know."

"I know, I forgive you, now go away."

Remus was just a little annoyed but this time he kept his cool. He gently pulled the curtains to the bed aside and peered into the darkness. What he saw shocked him, there was Sirius,

or something that looked like Sirius sitting on the bed. Whoever, or whatever it was had furry hands, face and he assumed legs if the fur around the ankles was any indication.

However the face and body was most definitely property of one Sirius Black.

"Sirius??"

"I'm really sorry Remus, I wanted to TELL you but we were waiting for the right time but when I saw Snape hit you I lost control and well just pounced and well surprise??"

"Sirius what in the world happened to you and WHAT in the world are you talking about?"

Remus sat down next to Sirius on his bed and let Sirius talk for hours. He talked about 5th year when he had found the Animagus spell and decided to use it to help with the monthly

moon cycles. How he only just last week perfected the spell after over a year of trying and how he got so angry with Snape for hurting Remus that he forgot all about everything else

and just pounced on Snape.

"And well thats how I got stuck like this and I can't go out like this or go to anyone with it because I'm not registered."

Remus had tears in his eyes. "You mean to tell me that you, James and Peter have all been working in secret to take on animal form for my change? And because of that your now

stuck in this half human half dog state?"

Sirius nodded and Remus despite himself burst into tears and hugged him. Sirius held him until Remus had calmed down a bit and let go. Sirius smiled at him a smile that only Sirius

could give. Remus returned the smile and laughed.

"Well at least SOME of the fur has gone away...a little."

Sirius gently punched him and laughed. James came up a few hours later and found the too friends talking and laughing on the bed just like they had been hours ago.
