Max's P.O.V.
Oh god my head. I feel like I had a basilisk dropped on my head. Oh, now I remember what happened! The Flock just got its memories of Red back. Well he did warn us it would hurt to get them all back at once.
I wonder how everybody else is doing. Ok time to open my eyes. Woah. I did not expect this...
Third person P.O.V.
As soon as the pain faded from the flocks heads they pounced on the boy in the corner. All Harry and everyone else in the compartment could hear was an indistinct babble from Nudge and everyone could tell that Angel was having mental conversation with someone. "Yes Angel, I did look after Red. No, he hasn't killed anyone. Although he has had some very interesting adventures." Luna said.
Harry just stared before turning to Max, the only one who hadn't taken part in the group hug of sorts. He was shocked. She was laughing. Why in the world was she laughing! "Uh, Max? Why are you laughing?" He asked. "The flock and I just got about a week's worth of memories back. And we knew that and his um, friend in the school, about a week before we escaped from the school the first time. He's really quite interesting but it's really not my place to tell you. He'll probably tell you when he's ready." Max replied.
As Harry was getting ready to ask the strange boy who he was, after all Red sounded more like a nickname, the door slid open and a cloaked figure entered the room. He felt all of his happiness drain out of him. His vision became blurry and he heard people screaming. He knew that some of them were the flock when they were being tortured. Even though his vision was fading, he still saw the mystery boy get up and a sword appeared in hand. He didn't seem to be affected by the creatures blasted aura of despair.
As he watched the boy swung his sword at the place where the creature's neck should have been. As soon as the blade touched the ragged black cloth, it burst into flames. The creature flew out the door and down the corridor, screaming and trailing flames.
The mystery boy came over and started talking to him. "Harry, HARRY! Don't you dare faint on me!" The boy screamed. All this commotion seemed to wake the other occupants of the compartment. As Harry sat up he found that he had chocolate in his mouth. "Eat it, it'll help with the after effects." It was the man who had spoken this time.
"Hey Remus, old buddy! Long time, no see eh?" the boy, he really needed to find out his name, said to the man who was wearing raggedy clothing. "Jake? Is that really you? Why, you haven't aged a day!" the man, Remus, replied "What happened to the dementor that I sensed in here just a second ago?" "Oh, it won't be bothering anyone else anymore. It burned quite...violently." was the boy's, Jake's, answer.
Remus Lupin P.O.V.
I was having a wonderful dream about what life would have been like if Wormtail hadn't betrayed James and Lily when I felt an icy presence enter the compartment. As I struggled to rouse myself to wakefulness, I heard something go up in flame. Then he heard an extremely familiar voice calling out "Harry, HARRY! Don't you dare faint on me!"
That's it for this chapter. As always, REVEIW!
