Chapter three
Minerva Mcgonagall had great faith in her ability to keep her calm during times of great stress, it had helped when James Potter and his friends were at school and it helped now.
Although she had not imagined them showing up with a werewolf child with no clothes on, "of all the foolish things you two got up to in school this is most definiatly the worst!"
she took the child and walked into her office mumbling about foolish boys and silly tricks. Both men cracked up laughing as soon as she left the room.
"Well I'm sure I don't know what's funny! and now you've got a three year-old child to care for in the middle of the war! one whom neither of you are willing to dress I might add!"
Remus sighed, "Minerva, I'm perfectly willing to change her, I was just shocked and tired," she shook her head, "I don't know Remus, you and Mr Black are both men, not to mention your...illness, I highly doubt you two could handle a hormonal teenaged werewolf," Sirius looked annoyed and Remus looked upset, but they were cut off from answering by a little voice.
"where's Mamma?" the three adults turned to face the baby, she looked lost and alone. Oddly enough it was Sirius who calmed the little girl down.
"Hi sweetheart, my name's Padfoot," she smiled tremulously and gave a half hearted wave: he waved back, "Do you do magic?" she asked.
She must have remembered some of the night before, Remus thought, Sirius nodded, "I can do some magic." He said, "do you like dogs little one?" at the child's nod he smiled, "well then..." he transformed quickly.
Remus watched the little girl's face go from surprise to wonder to outright excitement in a moment.
When Sirius changed back she clapped her hands in astonishment, "can you do other magic?" she asked.
Remus turned to Minerva, "I need to tell her what happend last night, could you give us a moment?" the witch turned to go, Sirius noticed, "leaving so soon Minnie?" he yelled over, without turning Minerva smiled, with a flick of her wand Sirius dissapeared and in his place was a small princess doll. "I've told you not to call me that Mr Black," she said over her shoulder.
Rolling his eyes Remus re-transfigured his friend, "do you do that to make her mad at you? Or are you really just that stupid?" Sirius pouted at his friend, "you are no fun!" A giggle reminded them of the little girl and Remus turned.
"How much do you remember about last night?" he asked, "I remember turning into a wolf, and then I remember..." she started whimpering and Remus hurried to pick her up, "It's OK Cub," he murmured softly.
After a while the child fell asleep again, Remus sat, turning to look at Sirius, "you realize we can't give her up now, she needs me to teach her about our kind, I realize you might not want to share the apartment with a baby, so if you want to change..."
Sirius laughed, "you just don't want me around to teach her how to prank people. Not to mention I'll be the favorite parent, besides Moony, I can't leave the poor little thing with you! She'll go crazy!"
Remus laughed, "fine, but you get to break it to James and Lily, Ariana will need godparents." Padfoot looked a little green around the gills for a moment, then he seemed to decide something.
"Remember to put on my tombstone 'Killed by the pregnant Dragon" Remus laughed, "lets go drama queen, we need to mentally prepare for a cussing out from the scariest creature known to man! A pregnant woman!"
Sirius groaned. "I'd rather face Voldemort, at least with him you know your death will be quick!"
