Hello everyone! I've made yet another regulus black fic instead of working on school/ the actual book I'm trying to write.
To clarify this takes place over Christmas holidays in Regulus's fifth year so the marauders would be in their sixth year. In this Sirius was disowned/left in the summer before his sixth year.
Anyway I own basically nothing in this fic.
I hope you enjoy it, sorry if I got anything wrong I'd be happy to fix it.
"oh! Um I have to study today, maybe some other time," Regulus chuckled uneasily internally kicking himself at how in unnatural and scared he sounded.
As soon as he was out of that room he ran. He didn't know where exactly he was going but he knew he had to get away.
He stopped in his room. He had to get his breathing under control.
Inhale. Wait. Exhale.
Inhale. Wait. Exhale.
Inhale. Wait. Exhale.
Inhale. Wait. Exhale.
Inhale. Wait. Exhale.
Inhale. Wait. Exhale.
Once he could think straight again he realized that he was actually in Sirius's old room.
Regulus wasn't a very impulsive person but in that moment he made a very big decision almost on impulse.
He was going to leave the Blacks.
In truth he had been thinking about it since Sirius left but he never thought he would be able to.
He went to his room. Even if he was leaving he would bring his stuff with him unlike his brother.
Regulus knew he couldn't bring too much, maybe just his school truck. Yes that would do.
He put all his school books and school work inside, he put his rings, clothes, and his favorite books. He grabbed his wand and a shirt before creeping downstairs.
"Kreacher," Regulus stopped the house elf from coming upstairs.
"here, your free now." He gave Kreacher the shirt.
"master-"
"not master"
"Regulus?" He nodded "thank you, but why did Regulus free Kreacher?"
"because… I'm leaving, and if you want you can too now."
"Kreacher will go with mas-Regulus."
"I was hoping you would."
he grabbed the house elf's hand and walked to the fireplace. He grabbed some floo powder.
"what are you doing?" Bellatrix asked him. Great! Bella was the one person (besides his parents) that he really didn't want to run into.
"leaving,"
oh Merlin! I'm actually doing this! Everything is going to change! No. He couldn't think about that now.
"you filthy-"
"no, your the blood traitor." He took his wand out of his pocket and quickly stunned her. He knew that she probably didn't have her wand on her, she preferred knives, but she was still a crazy woman who wouldn't hesitate to kill him or Kreacher.
"You were the traitor the second that you let anyone hurt your family, the second that you hurt your sister and cousin, the second you accepted that." He pointed to her arm which he knew the dark mark was on. And with that he stepped into the fireplace.
I really hope you like this chapter. I wanted to write a three chapter story but it got away from me and I'm currently working on chapter five lol. I'll publish the others after some editing and finalizing of certain details.
I wasn't going to make it during Christmas break but I loved the idea of Sirius leaving during the summer and regulus leaving during the winter holidays.
I hope you like this. As always like and follows make me so happy reviews make me even more happy. Please let me know what you think I take constructive criticism.
have a wonderful week
