A/N The tragedy of it all, alas I own nothing.
This chapter is for TheOriginalUser, who has alerted my story! I hope you like it.
Sirius' POV
I look up slowly, looking into the ice blue eyes, staring at me with concern, I feel his hand cupping my chin, and I see the concern and worry in his eyes, as he kneels down in front of me, in the pile of my blood and vomit.
"I'm going to help you Sirius," I feel a strong arm grip my elbow and helping me up. I wobble slightly as we both straighten up. "Come on" Lucius' says quietly.
"But why" is all I can manage to say, a small smile on my face, knowing that I am free.
"Come, we are going to my home" Lucius says helping me to catch my balance.
"I'm…. I'm leaving" I say tears of relief welling in my eyes and leaning heavily on Lucius' strong grip.
"You most certainly not leaving, Mutt." I hear my brother's voice from behind us; I feel the grip on my arm tighten.
"Luc, you said I was, please, I don't want to stay here." I whimper. I feel Lucius turn and face my brother, his grip loosening on my elbow. With out him to support me, I sink to the ground, my legs unable to hold my feeble weight. I curl up into a ball, hiding behind Lucius' robes.
"you, will not touch your brother again, he is coming with me and if you even try to contact him I will hex you into next week and hand you over to the Ministry." I hear Lucius say in a threatening voice.
"You dare take my brother away from me?" regulus retorts, almost spitting my name out.
"I dare." He says turning to me and bending over me, "come Sirius" he says helping me up once again.
We cross over to my fireplace and Lucius throws in floo powder. "Malfoy Manor" he shouts, the flames turning green.
"NO, Stupefy" my brother shouts, missing the both of us and blasts a hole in my wall.
"EXPELLIARMUS!" Lucius shouts with so much force he knocks my bother off his feet wand flying out of his hand. "Come Sirius, you are safe now"
We walking into the green flames and in seconds we are in the grand drawing room of Malfoy Manor.
"Oh my, Lucius, what's wrong?" Lucius' mother says looking up from the book she is reading. "Oh my, come lay him down here, what on earth has happened" she exclaims jumping up.
I feel my self ushered over to a plush green sofa, and helped to lie down, as my head hits the cushion darkness claims me.
Lucius' POV
I stare down at the now sleeping from of Sirius, my heart breaking as I look down at the skinny gaunt form of the boy.
My mother puts her hand on my shoulder "Lucius, what happened?" she says softly.
I exhale and begin my explanation. " I went over to Black manor, and Aunt Willie asked me in for tea, I obliged, and after my tea I asked if I could se the boys quickly, as I went up stairs I hear shouting, I went into Sirius' bedroom, quietly and what I saw, Oh mother " I say breaking down. " mother he was raping Sirius. He had him pinned down and he was raping him" I say through the sobs.
"Who was, darling, who was doing it" my mother says, putting her arms around me.
"R...r…regulus, mother, please can he stay here, I don't know what will happen if he goes back, as I went to get him, regulus tried to stop me, please, let him stay here." I beg my mother burying my head in her soft brown hair.
"Of course my darling son, he can stay here till start of term, I will just inform Willie, what is going on. She says releasing me and crossing to the fire, I hear the connection of the floo call,
"Hello Willie," I hear my mother greet.
"Oh hello my dear." I hear her reply
"I have a bit of news for you, you youngest son is to be staying with me until the start of term.
"Why? What has the stupid mutt done now?"
"That is no way to speak of your own son, if you must know, when Lucius came to see the boys he found regulus raping Sirius, It disturbed him deeply"
"Well I expect the stupid mutt deserved a punishment" I hear my Aunt scold
"What, you knew this was happening? My mother asks shock evident in her voice.
"Well yes, the stupid mutt needs punishing, and simple beatings were not doing it any more." I hear wahlburga reply stonily.
"Well, you disgust me, I thought you would have stopped this, good day to you, do not try and contact me." My mother says ending the floo call and getting up from the floor slowly.
"Luc, call the house elves to prepare the room adjoining yours, he will need you when he wakes." She says not mentioning the conversation, knowing I heard it all.
Before we can do anything we are both startled by a blood piercing scream emanating from the sofa.
" Shhhh, Sirius, its okay, you're safe now, it Lucius, you don't have to go back" I say putting my arms around the shaking boy and rubbing soothing circles on his back.
"Not going back" Sirius says as exhaustion over takes him, my arms wrapped around Sirius protectively my mother conjures a blanket and places it over the both of us.
"sleep My Lucius, you've done so very well" my mother soothes kissing my head and lightly kissing Sirius " sleep Sirius, we will keep you safe" she leaves us and exits the room, and the days events catch up to me and the lull of sleep washes over me.
