Sorry for the short chapter, but I had 2-5 written out and they got deleted somehow I've been rewriting all of them, but I am really busy.

Chapter 2: The Letter

Six years had passed since that horrible night had happened and Remus could still hear his father yelling, "this MONSTER." It was as if the werewolf had left him with wounds on his heart.

Shortly after his eleventh birthday, Remus and his mother were sitting at the kitchen table. Remus was reading in the Daily Prophet when something came swooping through the window. It crashed onto the kitchen table and spilled a bottle of milk, flooding the floor. The thing was an owl and it was holding a letter. His mother took the letter from the owl and Remus thought to himself, "Which wizard would write to us?"

"It's for you, Remus," his mother said.

"Who would be writing to me?" Remus asked.

He opened the letter and his mouth fell open in shock.

"What is it?" his mother asked worriedly.

Remus pushed it over to her wordlessly.

"So can I go?" Remus asked tentatively.

"Of course!" his mother said.

As Remus climbed into bed that night, he felt as if though he had never been happier before.
