How he had changed since five minutes before.
Five minutes earlier he had been strong.
Five minutes earlier he had been brave, and ready.
Five minutes earlier he had actually been quite attractive.
But now, he just looked in pain. He looked like a small child just sent to their room.
Remus John Lupin was crying.
Tonks hair colour faded as she watched silver tears run down his face slowly.
"Remus?"
"Im..So,so sorry Nymphadora,"
"Sorry? Remus? Sorry for what?"
"For everything.."
"Remus, You're scaring me.."
"Im sorry..."
Tonks walked over to his cage, opened the door and walked over to where Remus was curled up in the corner and she wrapped her arms around him.
"Whats wrong Remus? Ive never seen you like this before...?"
"I have never told you how I feel..."
Tonks shifted slightly where she sat next to him
"Then tell me Remus..."
"Thats just the problem.." He looked up and his eyes were piercing black and his pupils were swollen. Tonks sat up in fright. "I.c..c...can't"
Moonlight shone throught the barred window of the cellar and blinded Tonks. She tried to search for Remus, who was lost in the light. A piercing scream was made from Remus and the moonlight passed over, revealing the monster Remus was. His clothes had been ripped off by the transformation and his legs were just bones covered in a thin layer of fur. His teeth had been sharpened like blades and were dripping thick yellow phlegm.
"R..R...Remus..."
Remus Let out a loud howl which caused Tonks to gasp. She ran towards the cage door but the werewolf got there first. He lept against door causing it to close. Tonks screamed as loud as she could.
This was a bad idea.
The werewolf lept at Tonks its teeth missed her by inched but it's claws cut through her stomach. She screamed out in pain causing members of the order to hear her pain.
Mad-eye rushed down the stairs towards the cellar and pointed his wand at the werewolf...
"Don't hurt Him!" Tonks screamed.
"Crucio!"
Tonks lept in front of Remus just as the spell was cast, causing extreme pain to shoot through her body. Molly Weasley came running down the stairs.
"Stupefy!"
This sent the werewolf backwards, causing it to crash into the wall and knock its self out. Mad-eye ran towards the cage and dragged Tonks out of dangers way.
"NO! I can't just leave him!"
"Tonks Im sorry!"
"Its not about me! Its Remus! Leave me with him!
"He'll be alright Tonks..Come on love..."
"Im nn..n..not leaving him!" She broke down in tears, Mad-eye scooped her up in his arms. Tonks buried her face into mad eyes chest and swung her arms round his neck.
"I still love him!"
"I know. You have no reason not to." He looked Tonks in the eye "Im so sorry Tonks. I must have caused you great pain using that curse on-" He choked back his tears
"The pain you caused me, is nothing to the pain caused from seeing him like this"
Mad-eye carried Tonks upstairs to her room and fixed up her scars on her stomach. And yet again,
She cryed herself to sleep.
