Sirius and James begin their way back down the corridor. "Did you see their faces!?" James laughs.
"Yeah!" Sirius smirks. He thinks back to the girl with fiery ginger hair she had a kind face there was no way she is Slytherin. "You sure they were Slytherin though?" He asks as they return in to their compartment.
"Positive they we-"James was cut off by their carriage door opening violently.
"It was him!" Says the scowling ginger haired girl she was pointing straight at Sirius. She was accompanied by a plump man and a crowd of Slytherins.
"What was me darling?" Sirius asks sarcastically. The girl looks appalled.
"That better not be you…!" Sirius recognised the voice it was his cousin Bellatrix. She was pushing her way through the crowd and suddenly met Sirius' eye. "It is you! You little rat!" said the fuming voice of Bellatrix Lestrange.
"You smell a bit off cousin dear" Sirius says cockily scrunching up his nose. James stifles a laugh.
Suddenly Sirius feels Bellatrix's wand on his throat. "How dare you, I shoul-"
She was cut off by the plump man "Calm down please, Miss Black.." He says slowly.
"Yeah get of-"James stops when he sees Sirius' hand raise slightly to silence him. He most defiantly won't want to annoy Bellatrix Sirius thinks.
Bellatrix Growls but does not remove her wand.
Sirius hears the Ginger girl's voice say "Make her stop Sev" Sirius looks over at her she is talking to a greasy haired hook nosed boy who seems to be enjoying the scene.
"Miss Lestrange I must insist you remove your wand" Says the plump man he is obviously a professor.
"Yeah get it off my friend!" James says angrily. Sirius raises his eyebrows comically at his cousin.
Bellatrix removes her wand reluctantly. "Good girl" Sirius smirks.
"You better be careful Sirius!" she says darkly. "Your parents aren't here to protect you now.." she whispers.
Them? Protect me!? Sirius thinks angrily. He scowls at her.
"Are you sure it was him Miss Evans?" The plump professor asks. The red head nods.
"You have gained a det-" The man begins but is cut off by the irate professor McGonagall
"What is going on HERE?" She asks looking at the crowd of people she finally meets eyes with the man. "Professor Slughorn please explain?" She says sharply.
"I most certainly will!" Begins professor Slughorn. "This Boy has thrown a Dung bomb, into a carriage full of some of my best students! I was just about to give him a detention for his cheek!"
"No need" says McGonagall flatly. "I have already given Sirius Black and his accomplice Detention for Monday evening…"
Slughorn frowns ignoring her "So your Sirius Black?" he asks.
"Yeah, Why?" Sirius says defensively why does he know me!? Slughorn's the head of Slytherin. I am not even in his stupid house, or anyone's for that matter.
"Yes professor!" Slughorn says angrily. "Bellatrix, Lily and the others return to your compartment please"
They begin to protest but move quickly when McGonagall says "NOW!" harshly.
Slughorn continues "I just received an owl from your father, I think we need a little talk…"
Sirius did not like the sound of this talk has father really contacted him like he threatened this morning Sirius thinks.
"I will see you this evening when we reach the castle" Slughorn says blandly
"Why?!" Sirius asks loudly.
"Manners Mr Black" McGonagall says.
Slughorn shakes his head "Because you simply cannot behave in this way in MY HOUSE!" Slughorn is cut off by Sirius.
"I am not a member of your dark arts obsessed house! He says tersely "And I never will be!" He adds. James laughs slightly and when Sirius, looks at McGonagall he could have sworn he saw the corner of her lips turn up into a smile?
"Your father informed me of your fight with a muggle on the way here Black…" Slughorn accused raising his voice.
Sirius violently stands "I DID NOT!" he shouts fuming.
McGonagall's face bears a confused look "Calm down Black" She says sternly.
"How else did your jaw end up like that?" Slughorn asks darkly.
Sirius ignores his question and scowls at Slughorn, his fists balled. He is positive if he looked they would be white. He has never felt this angry! "I DID NOT ATTACK A MUGGLE!" SIRIUS BELLOWS. He suddenly remembers his father's words 'Just tell them he started a fight with another boy' I HATE HIM! I HATE THEM! Sirius thinks spitefully. He feels as if he is about to cry. Not now he thinks Blacks do not cry!
"Calm down Sirius" James says softly. He is obviously shocked by his friends outburst.
"you can have another detention Mr Black for being aggressive towards a professor." Says McGonagall blandly.
Sirius frowns "Not With Hi-"
"With me" McGonagall says sternly. "Let's go Horace" she says walking out of the door. Slughorn glares daggers at Sirius and leaves.
"What was that about?" James asks. "What happened to your jaw?"
Sirius ignores him, he has gone beyond caring and feels so angry, he storms over to the carriage door and slams his fist into the glass panel. It shatters Upon impact. Sharp pains travel up his arm and he blinks back tears. He storms over to the corner of the carriage and sits stiffly, He hunches over and puts his face in his hands.
James jumps to his feet "Sirius calm down…" he says quietly looking concerned. He takes in the glass ridden floor and sighs. "How can I fix this" he mumbles to himself.
"Sirius?" Says a strong female voice. "Is that you..?" James looks at the owner of the voice, she is girl wearing a Slytherin robes looks like a 6th year. She has short brown hair with blue eyes, she looks distressed.
Sirius looks up "Dromy?" he says softly.
"What have you done? Can I come in?" She asks looking at James.
"Sure…" He says with a small smile.
She puts her hand through the vacant spot of the window and pulls open the door from the inside. She Walks in quickly and sits next to Sirius. She puts her hand on his back comfortingly. "Siri, I know I said have a smashing time but I didn't mean it literally" she says indicating to the broken window.
James snorts, and crouches down beginning to pick up the shards of glass.
"Don't" She says quickly. "I'll fix it.." She gets up and pulls out her wand "Reparo" she says flicking her wand. Suddenly the pieces begin to fly back to their original place creating a window again. Neither James nor Sirius are shocked because they have grown up with magic.
"Thanks!" James Smiles "I am James potter… Who are you?"
"I am Andromeda, Sirius' cousin" She says confidently. "Sirius what happened?" She asks him.
Sirius looks up. He likes Andromeda she is not the same as the other family he has.
"What happened to your jaw?" she asks when he lifts his head.
"Father…" Sirius says slowly ignoring James' small gasp.
"Slughorn said you were in a fight though?" James asks confused.
"He was LYING!" Sirius says loudly beginning to feel angry again.
"Sorry…" James mumbles he sits on the same side as Andromeda.
"Why did he do it Sirius?" She asks softly.
Sirius pauses "I used a dung bomb on Reg's room, and was being sarcastic this morning."
"I am not saying his actions are alright because they are not but, why do you provoke him Sirius?" She asks.
Sirius scowls and ignores her question.
"Fine she says, are you alright though?"
Sirius laughs "What do you think? You've seen him 'angry' before."
"Yeah… Sadly I have" She gives Sirius a sympathetic smile. "You're here now forget him." She says brightly. "Can I see your hand?" Sirius nods, he removes his hand from his t shirt noticing a dark patch of his blood, he didn't realise how much it was bleeding. He offers her his hand and she inspects it. "It's not that bad, you'll live." She smirks "I am glad I didn't say have a blast. You could've blown up the train."
Sirius laughs "I got a bit carried away…" he looks at James "Sorry for shouting"
"It's fine all is forgiven." He Smiles "Slughorn looked shocked…"
Sirius smiles back "yea"
"Why was he in here anyway?" Andromeda asks.
"Umm, we put a dung bomb in Bellatrix's Compartment…"
Andromeda laughs "She is not going to be a happy bunny"
"Is she ever?" They both laugh.
"Anyway you should get changed we are nearly at Hogwarts. See you!"
"Bye Dromy and thanks for the glass…"
"S'alright, Bye James" She winks at them and with that she is gone.
