The Raptor and The Raven
Chapter 6: The Alley pt.2
--Last Chapter--
Toboe over heard snippets of the woman's voice. "You...werewolf...belong...dead...mine...traitor."Remus saw the woman pull her hand back and readied himself for the slap. But It never came.
--This Chapter--
Remus opened one eye to see that the woman had a hand wrapped around her wrist. "You Dare touch MY Remus!"Remus blushed fearsomely. Toboe spun the woman into the male behind her. Then Toboe turned to check on Remus. "are you OK?.."The words she meant to say were cut off as a spell caught Toboe unaware. "Expellarmus!" The man bellowed and Toboe went flying only to slam into the cobble stone walkway 20ft away. Severus howled and charged the man."How dare you! Her back was turned!"Hermione screamed as she pounced on the man her fingers arched into claws that would soon become fists.
Remus grabbed Severus before the wolf could get at the man's throat. "Protect your Mistress!"The wolf lunged to stand guard over the woman laying spread out on the street. Remus caught Hermione and shook her gently until she looked at him. "Hermione calm down!"Remus let Hermione go and the young woman ran towards her friend and pulled her wand. "Enervate!" Toboe woke and shook her head. "What happened! Where is Remus?"Then both women watched in shock as The man punched Remus in the face and the werewolf didn't retaliate.
Toboe Screamed for a moment her mind was thrown into that bloody night a week ago and the green flash that took one of her Beloved ones. "REMUS!"Toboe lunged coming upon the man slapping his wand away with a left handed swat. Her right fist broke his jaw in one disturbing crack. "He is Mine!" She growled digging her fingers into his neck until he nodded and whimpered. Hermione was holding Remus' head in her lap when Toboe walked over. "Remus are you alright?"Toboe touched his cheek gently looking into the glowing gold eyes.
Remus was dueling his darker side as the werewolf wanted to beat the man's head in for daring to strike him in front of the two females. The wolf was pleased to have the wolf-woman defend him. "I'm alright both of you."Remus mumbled as Toboe helped him up. Toboe turned her head the man was gone and Severus was standing there with an evil fanged smile. "Severus luv come lets go."Toboe called. Severus growled approvingly,As the four entered the clothing shop. Madam Malkin smiled at Remus' defender. "madam we need to be fitted for robes for Hogwarts."
--2 hours later--
The two women walked out, Toboe in a new out fit. Her wardrobe was unusual but practical.
Toboe had on sleeveless black robes that went over an Emerald green wife beater-style shirt with silver sparkles.Her pants were belted around her waist with a belt with wolves carved into the leather the buckle was silver crescent moon with an enameled white wolf with howling to it. The pants them selves were flowing and billowy about her ankles. She had also requested shorts of the same style and fabric. Her boots were dragon hide with silver wolf head buckles.
She had bought four pairs of those. "Do we have everything Hermes??" Toboe smiled. Keeping her eyes watching the crowd. "Let's see. Books check. Quills and parchment check. Robes double check. Wand check. I think we have every thing."Hermione grinned. "how about a drink and something to eat?"Remus smirked as Toboe's stomach growled. " OK OK I'm hungry!"Toboe laughed as she rubbed her belly. As they walked Toboe overheard people talking. "Look at that broom its even faster then the firebolt!""Its so big how can it be that fast!"another interrupted. Toboe stopped causing the other two to stop. "Whats that Hermes?"It was Remus who answered though. "Thats a Quidditch shop Toboe do you want to go look at the brooms?""Yes please!"Toboe chirped, taking Remus' offered arm.
Hermione sighed praying Toboe wouldn't get caught up in Quidditch. Toboe the one person who understood her when she started ranting like a dictionary. "Wow!"Toboe smiled and was prodding Remus for his knowledge on the sport. But shook her head when she looked at the broom. 'Soul Scream' was engraved on the handle Toboe's eyes lowered and she asked to go. "Of course"Remus looked and realized why Toboe had lost her interest so quickly. His hight would have kept him from the team if his furry little problem hadn't. Hermione smiled at them as they emerged from the store and they resumed walking for the leaky cauldron "Toboe"Her eyes met his."I know"Her eyes were grateful as she squeezed his arm softly in gratitude.
--The Leaky Cauldron--
Hermione's smile couldn't be seen by her companions. As they sat and Remus ordered them butterbeers Toboe petted Severus' head. "Are we returning to the den after our drink?"Toboe asked as she stroked Severus. "Yes we have all we needed."Remus replied watching the woman and her wolf. "Thank you for today Remus."Hermione and Toboe said at the same time before the three fell into laughter. After paying for there drinks and Floo-ing back to grimmuald place,As Hermione grumbled about the ash. Toboe and Remus laughed when Severus shook off and covered Hermione in more ash. "SEVERUS!!"Hermione screamed and set to chasing the wolf who slid between the legs of one Draco Malfoy. "Gran-OOmph!"As Hermione wound up sitting on Draco's lap Toboe and Remus howled in laughter at the sight. "Hey Hermes? You staking a claim?"Hermione looked at the two and the Wolf who was now sitting next to them.
--The Kitchen--
Lucius was watching Molly cook and when one of her kids would try and sneak something off he'd bark and Molly would reward him with a bacon nip."Damn Dog"Ron mumbled after his mothers spatula had bopped his hand for attempting to steal a snack."Good boy Lucius!"Molly smiled at the wolf as the older Malfoy walked in."I beg your pardon Molly?"He said."The wolf's name is Lucius also."Toboe walked in sliding around the Elder Malfoy."You could call him Lucian, Molly Hermes does."Toboe said as she sniffed the scent of the food. Molly smiled and handed Toboe some of the bacon nips she'd been feeding Lucius. "Hungry dear?" "Yup!"Toboe walked out the side door towards the back yard.
Hermione watched Toboe pop out of the kitchen munching on something. "Toboe where you going?"Toboe picked up the first year books Hermes had brought from home for her to look at."Off to practice with my wand."Hermione smiled."Good luck!"Toboe smirked."Dumbledore said there is a barrier here that prevents that ministry thing from seeing if magic is preformed here. Wanna practice with me?"Hermione whipped out her wand and grinned."Count me in Toboe!"
And with that the two witches began practicing there magic for the next month.
