Harry ran through the forest to see if his Uncle Moony was back. Moony was different from Harry and his mother; Moony was a werewolf. Harry remembered that his mother said that Moony was always the loner of the kingdom because he was a "dark creature." Harry knew that his uncle could never walk freely in the Gryffindor kingdom because of what he is.

Harry slowed down and suddenly stopped. His smile turned to a frown and he thought that people like the King and Queen, were just plain stupid. His Uncle Moony was the smartest person in the entire kingdom, but people could not look past his "curse." Harry hated people who were thick-headed, and will always defend the people he loved. "

"HARRY!" yelled his mother.

Harry smiled brightly, his mother only yelled when his Uncle Moony was home. Harry raced through the forest.

Lily was waiting for her usually punctual son. She sighed and muttered "That boy never hurries."

She looked around and stood proudly at what she and Remus had accomplished. They found a small, but big enough clearing, to fit a small and cozy shack. There was a place for a fire pit, and the trees surrounded the area like a barrier. It was deep in the forest where no one would find them and the creatures would not be disturbed. Lily smiled happily at her home.

Lily heard a voice and smiled when she heard who it was. A hand touches her shoulder and playfully says "Thinking again Lily."

Lily smiled and turns around to face a man. He had sandy-blond hair with a few gray hairs. He was a few inches taller than Lily, and he was lean in a healthy way. He had pale healthy skin, with some wrinkles, and his eyes were amber. They sparkled with joy but had flecks of sadness and despair.

Lily smiled and said "Someone has to around here."

He gave out a chuckle; his amber eyes met her emerald ones, and said "Please everyone knows that I am the smart one."

Lily smirked and her eyes show amusement "Well, Remus – great-oh-smart one – perhaps we should both make a healing potion and see which one is better."

Remus rolled his eyes and sarcastically said "Sure and after that we can burn down the forest." They both laughed at the same time, and Lily gave him a hug.

Suddenly out of nowhere, a voice calls out "UNCLE MOONY!" Remus turned around and saw Harry running toward him. He opened his arms and embraced Harry.

"I missed you, Uncle Moony" said Harry.

Remus chuckled "Lily was too strict…as usula."

Remus looked into Harry's eyes and sensed curiosity. "Harry, do you want to tell me something?"

Harry opened his mouth, but looked at his mother. Lily was standing across from them; her arms across her shoulders in an angry state, and her eyes were giving the "look."

Harry gulped and said "No Uncle Moony, I'm just happy you here again.

Harry gave a fake smile and said "How about we play in the lake?"

Remus was curious to know why Harry switched the subjects and lying to his face. Remus look at Lily and Lily suddenly turned her head and look in the other direction.

Remus frowned at this and said "Harry I need to rest for a bit, how about we play later? Harry smiled and turned around.

He ran in the direction of the lake, calling out "I'm going to play around the lake, okay."

Remus smiled and took out his wand. In a swish he conjured two chairs. He sat in one and looked up at Lily, and patted the other chair. Lily smiled nervously, she knew that Remus hated if anyone was keeping secrets from him, especially if it was Lily and Harry.

She started to say "Remus, you need to get some rest."

Remus snorted and said "I'll go to sleep later; you need to tell me what is going on."

Lily sighed and she sat down "Harry has been asking about him." Remus's amber eyes went from curiosity to concerned "Already?"

Lily laughed softly "Moony, he's ten years old, we knew he would have been asking about him sooner or later."

Remus laughed and then sighed "Has ten years passed already…time goes by fast."

Lily stood up frustrated "I know Remus, I know, Harry grew up and now he wants to know everything. He has been asking every creature in this forest about his father."

Lily put her hands on her temples, and started to massage them.

"Remus what do I do?"

Lily looked at him waiting for him to answer. Remus looked at his best friend, his sister in everything but blood, and sighed "Tell him the basic story and why we are here, tell him on his eleventh birthday."

Lily nodded sadly and sat back down. She put her head on his shoulder and asked "Remus, do you feel it?"

Remus looked at Lily and said nothing. Lily sighed, stood up, and said "I'm going to look for Harry."

Lily walked away and called out "Get some rest Moony."

Remus looked down, and then looked directly at the sky; he could tell there would be a storm brewing; a storm that would shatter the life of his best friend and his godson.

Remus looked back at the ground and chuckled lightly.

"I feel it too."
