Harry glared furiously at the group that left the cell that afternoon.

What Voldemort, Fenrir and Peter had just done was,well, heartless to put it simply.

Peter hadn't even been able to look any of them in the face once the questioning had started. He looked around the room to where his mother was pulling Remus into a more comfortable position, Sirius and his Dad didn't seem to know what to do.

He knew what everyone was thinking though, each and everyone couldn't believe how young Remus had been when he had been bitten. He'd never mentioned it.

"How long does he have till he changes?" Harry asked trying to hide the fear in his voice. James stared up at his son and breathed in.

"Tomorrow night he'll change," concern flashed in his eyes briefly. James sat against the wall, still holding his ribs tenderly but obviously he cared more about his unconscious friend right now.

"Erm have you…have you seen him…change?" James asked hesitantly. Harry nodded slowly.

"Once. He nearly killed me and my friends. He'd forgotten to take his potion."

Inspiration lit up behind Sirius' eyes who had been listening carefully to the conversation.

"That's it wolfsbane! If we get him some wolfsbane potion we'll definitely all be fine, he'll know what's going on and won't attack us."

Lily frowned at him disbelievingly.

"Sirius, we're locked in a cell without any wands and I'm afraid I didn't pack a precautionary flask of wolfsbane potion before we left," muttered Lily sarcastically, boys could be so stupid sometimes.

Sirius pouted at Lily sulkily.

"What happened to 'we'll restrain him' anyway?" asked Lily laying Remus' head down gently.

James and Sirius exchanged looks quickly.

"Well that could still work," Sirius said quickly.

Lily frowned at him, he'd said it a bit too quickly for her liking. James knowing what she was thinking knew they should come clean sooner rather than later.

"It's just," and he pulled Lily into a hug. Lily didn't like where this was going and struggled against him a bit.

"…We've never had to restrain him in such…" he glanced at Harry who had gone very white.

"…close quarters,"

Lily and Harry said nothing, their last hope had just been dashed. It seemed that Remus would change in just over 24 hours and he would bite them all if not kill them.

Remus opened his eyes blearily and grimaced at the incredible pain in his right temple. He shut his eyes again quickly, remembering the previous events. He lifted his arm up slowly and touched his head gingerly.

Shuffling nearby meant that somebody had noticed he was awake. He opened his eyes again and found Harry staring down at him.

He groaned slightly and went to sit up, immediately regretting it as it seemed to further the pain in his head. Harry furrowed his brow with worry, Remus had gone very white.

"Hey lay back down. You hit your head pretty hard," Harry moved around to Remus' head and helped him prop himself against the wall slightly.

"What time is it? What day is it?" he croaked feebly, dread filling him.

Harry didn't look injured. He stared around the room, it was dark outside but he wasn't sure what time.

Lily and James were curled up together asleep to his left in the corner. Sirius was… a smile played on his face slightly…Sirius was sprawled out in the middle of the room, his mouth open and breathing very deeply, he was snapped out of his thoughts by Harry's answer.

"It's Saturday…the 13th. And the time? Not too sure. The light started failing a while ago and Mum, Dad and Sirius fell asleep not too long after."

Remus nodded slightly, he hadn't changed yet then not till tomorrow.

"I'm sorry," muttered Harry. Remus looked at him quizzically.

"About, you know, how you were made. I didn't know." Remus rolled his eyes.

"It was a long time ago," Remus smiled at him wearily.

He was beginning to feel a bit stronger now and his headache was dissipating slowly. He pushed himself into a sitting position.

"Do you want me to…?" Harry gestured to James, Lily and Sirius. Remus smiled and shook his head.

"Think I will," he grinned with a mischievous look on his face. Harry smiled at him it was nice to see him happy.

"Oi!" He yelled at the top of his voice.

Sirius started and seemed to come out of his sleepy state slowly. Lily and James had jumped violently and their heads had collided and both were now rubbing their foreheads furiously.

"I don't know. First chance you get you all fall asleep on me. Only got Harry here."

"Moony!" Sirius laughed happily getting to his feet clumsily and rushing to hug his friend.

"Glad to see you're ok," grinned James, Lily smiled at him too.

"You were out a while. How's your head?" she asked sympathetically.

"Still hurts a bit not too bad though and I can stand up now," he finished happily getting to his feet and doing an odd twirl.

Lily, James, Sirius and Harry laughed at him and he sat down quickly looking quite embarrassed.

Remus stared around the cell that had become his home over the last, he thought back, week and a half.

His friends were asleep again and he was left alone with his thoughts. He'd never thought that Peter was one to watch out for, the one that may betray them all to their worst enemy.

Flashback

Remus awoke early to find a letter on his kitchen table. The name on the envelope was written in a familiar handwriting and he smiled as he opened it.

Inside as he thought was a letter from two of his best friends, James and Lily Potter.

Dear Remus,

Please meet me and James at the Leaky Cauldron at 8pm on Saturday the 5th of January we have some very special news for you. Sirius and Peter have been sent invites as well please send us your reply as soon as possible because we will rearrange if necessary…we want everybody to be there.

With love

Lily Potter

Remus put the letter down and rummaged in a nearby drawer re-emerging with a quill

and parchment he hastily scribbled…

Of course I'll be there.

Remus

With that he called the owl to him that had settled itself on his sofa and sent the reply off.

As Saturday arrived Remus waited as patiently as possible to set off, trying desperately to occupy his mind with trivial things. He loved spending time with his friends and couldn't wait to see them again.

The clock had just ticked across to half past seven when Remus snapped and he set off quickly apparating into Diagon Alley. Tapping the bricks in the correct order hurriedly he watched urgently as the bricks parted to reveal the Leaky Cauldron's back door.

He pushed it open and searched the tables for signs of his friends. Finally he spotted James and Lily sitting at a corner table beaming at him and rushed over.

James hugged Remus warmly and Lily kissed him lightly on each cheek before they took their seats and began chatting. They hadn't been talking for long when Sirius arrived and took a seat next to Remus.

"Drinks anyone?" he said jovially. Remus nodded.

"Butterbeer,"

"Firewhisky," gulped James finishing his drink and passing his glass to Sirius smiling.

"Gillywater," murmured Lily thoughtfully. Sirius frowned at her.

"Gillywater?" he repeated, Lily looked up at him and nodded.

"Funny tummy," she said rubbing her stomach lightly.

Sirius shrugged and set off to the bar returning quickly smiling broadly and passing Remus his drink. Remus took a sip of his drink.

"So what have you been up to Padfoot?" said James accepting the drink he was passed. Sirius shrugged.

"Not much really been with Order mostly checking out tip offs," Remus, James and Lily nodded they had all been given they're separate assignments and were told to give out as little information as possible.

This new way of communication was due to a rumour of a spy in the Order's ranks.

"Remus? You?" Lily asked casually. Remus put his drink down and sighed.

"Been with my own kind undercover." Sirius, James and Lily looked at him sympathetically they knew he hated it but he was the ideal person to do the job.

"What's your news then," Sirius asked excitedly changing the subject. Lily raised her eyebrows at him.

"We're waiting until everyone is here," she stated firmly.

"And Peter isn't here yet." James couldn't help smiling at the look on Sirius' face.

"Late isn't he?" mused Remus looking down at his watch.

"Always is," chuckled James.

As if on cue the back door opened again and in came Peter gasping for breath looking slightly ruffled. Remus rolled his eyes and Sirius and James howled with laughter at the sight if him.

Peter spotted them and walked over quickly and sat down next to Lily greeting everybody briefly.

"Blimey Pete, you look like a hinkypunk led you through a swamp," giggled Lily. Peter smiled at her and after catching his breath answered.

"Just running a bit late with things from work," Lily nodded at him in reply.

Each and everyone of them, knew how dangerous working for the Order was. Peter stood up and returned quickly with a large glass of firewhisky.

Remus frowned at him but was the only one who did, Peter didn't usually drink firewhisky.

"So what's your news," said Sirius again jumping up and down urgently.

"Well…" started James.

"Can I…Do you mind if I just nip to the toilet I haven't had time to do anything came here straight from work you see,"

Sirius gave Peter a murderous look but replaced it quickly with a smile,

"Sure," he said through gritted teeth. Peter got up quickly and rushed off to the toilets.

Twenty minutes later Sirius was going stir crazy and Peter still hadn't returned. Remus drained his drink and went to replenish everybody else's drinks, when he came back James cleared his throat.

"I'm just going to check on him you know he might have fallen asleep or something," he said lightly and edged round the table amid Sirius' protests.

"This is going to take ages to get out of you isn't it," huffed Sirius taking a large gulp of his drink. Lily grinned at him politely.

"It's worth it." Sirius stared up at her with puppy-dog eyes and she scowled at him.

Thinking better of it Sirius returned to his drink.

Another ten minutes passed and Sirius was on the verge of hyperactivity. Lily was looking slightly worried now and Remus couldn't think what would be keeping his friends so long.

"Go check on them Sirius will you," pleaded Lily.

Sirius was up in an instant and hurried off. Remus sighed and looking at Lily's face creased with worry took pity on her. Putting his hand on top of hers she started and looked at him inquisitively.

"They'll be fine. Some practical joke probably." Lily smiled at Remus warmly and nodded taking a sip of her gillywater. A few minutes later and Peter sat down next to them.

"That's better," he sighed reaching for his drink not noticing Remus and Lily's confused expressions.

"Where are James and Sirius?" asked Remus perplexed.

Lily nodded enthusiastically next to Peter. Peter stared from Remus to Lily and shrugged his shoulders.

"Haven't seen them. Had a bit of a funny tummy you know and as far as I know nobody came or left the toilets. I haven't seen them." he finished sipping his drink and shivered at the taste of it.

Lily shot Remus an anxious look which he returned.

"Boys! Come on Peter we'll go find them…this is a joke too far…" Lily looked round…

"Can't see them down here... upstairs it is then," With that she hoisted Peter from his seat with surprising strength and marched him round the table. Remus made to stand up but Lily stopped him,

"Remus stay here in case they come back," Remus nodded slightly and turned back to his drink that he wasn't sure if he wanted now.

After another ten minutes Remus was getting restless, nobody had returned and he felt a bit daft by himself.

Suddenly from above him he heard a shuffle of feet and the distinct sound of shattering glass. He stared at the ceiling and stood up quickly almost running to the stairs.

Once he reached the top he faced the long corridor and sighed, he didn't know which room was above his table.

He started walking down and knocking on each door asking the occupants if they were ok. After two doors he was fed up and glanced up the corridor only to see Peter walking distractedly towards him.

"Peter?" he asked bewildered. Peter started obviously not expecting him to be there.

"Remus…" started Peter fumbling with his hands.

"Where's Lily?" ventured Remus eyeing Peter suspiciously. Peter twitched slightly.

"She er…"

"Peter…" said Remus again a more dangerous tone added to his voice.

As if realisation had set in Remus pulled out his wand and pointed it at his friend. Peter gulped.

"It's you isn't it," said Remus his voice shaking.

"You're the spy. What have you done with our friends?" he demanded rounding on Peter. Peter cowered slightly backing up.

Remus was about to stun Peter to take him in for questioning but what he saw next stopped him from making any further movements.

A sea of black robed people came flowing out of a room close behind Peter and they lined up behind him. Remus felt his wand arm sag slightly.

He was outnumbered. Remus backed up slightly and felt himself collide with something, turning round he saw more Death Eaters their faces twisted into horrible smiles.

Remus backed up closer to Peter and turned round, he was surrounded.

"Stupefy," said someone and Remus watched his world go black and his last vision was of Peter looking down at him.

Remus opened his heavy eyes and he groaned slightly pushing himself up.

Was it a nightmare?

He stared round himself…no.

Sat in a corner were Lily and James holding each other and Sirius wasn't too far from him looking extremely angry.

"What happened?" murmured Lily her eyes moist with unshed tears.

"Peter," stated Remus without emotion.

"I came to find you and was surrounded… Peter was with them." Sirius and James nodded.

"Me in the toilets," mumbled James.

"Me too," added Sirius.

"He led me into a room and told me to look under the bed whilst he checked the wardrobe for you guys…" she nodded at Sirius and James.

"When I looked up they were everywhere," James hugged her tightly.

The door clicked and opened painfully slowly. Voldemort marched in impressively and faced his prisoners.

"Glad you could make it," he said his eyes glittering maliciously.

Peter walked in at this point and Sirius used all of his common sense to keep from killing him.

"You have all had your wands removed and you shall remain here for a rather long time I should imagine," Voldemort said lazily and with that he left leaving Peter alone with them.

Nobody said a word and an awkward silence hung in the air before Peter finally broke it.

"I had to prove myself," he almost cried. Nobody answered, they felt no need to. He was supposed to be their friend.

As if unable to bear the silence of his friends Peter made a quick exit and left hurriedly.

End Flashback.

The door clicked and started Remus out of his thoughts. Remus blinked to clear his head and stared at the door half expectantly, half anxiously.

A mop of mousy brown hair stuck round the door and glanced nervously round the room. Remus wasn't sure how to react…angry, happy, relief, hurt? Once Peter's gaze had settled on him Remus settled for a weak smile.

Remus was quite pleased to see that his punch had made a fairly remarkable bruise on Peter's right cheek.

"Peter?" he mumbled quietly. Peter stepped inside and closed the door behind him.

"Ssh," he whispered urgently. Remus gave him a puzzled look.

"I'm not supposed to be here," he said quietly.

"But then why are you?" Remus made to stand up but stopped when Peter sat directly in front of him.

"I…it's my fault you're all here and…"

"Tell me something I don't know?" huffed Remus.

Peter gave him a pleading look and Remus' stony expression softened slightly and he flicked his hand to tell Peter to carry on.

"I didn't know that the Dark Lord planned to keep you here. All of you through full moon,"

"He has knack for doing things like that I find," Remus replied sarcastically rolling his eyes.

"Remus…" whined Peter pulling Remus down so that their heads were almost touching.

"I'm going to be in so much trouble for this but I got you some," and with that Peter thrust his hand inside his robes releasing Remus at the same time.

Remus watched Peter carefully incase of any tricks, he wasn't sure if he could trust him. Peter pulled out a medium sized purple bottle. Remus frowned and looked up at Peter who was smiling at him.

"Snape…Severus said he had some so he got it for me…you."

Remus wasn't sure what this small man in front of him was talking about, something in the back of his mind was screaming out... but it couldn't be.

"What is it?" asked Remus quietly plucking the bottle out of Peter's grasp and unscrewing the lid and smelling deeply.

"It's…well it's…" Peter watched Remus' expression change.

A broad smile spread across Remus' face,

"Wolfsbane?" he asked unbelievingly. Peter nodded quickly standing up.

"Drink it though I can't leave the bottle here,"

Remus eyed him carefully he couldn't smell any poison in the bottle but was still sceptical.

After an awkward silence Remus decided that he couldn't risk not trusting him and gulped the potion down. The foul tasting potion slid down his throat and he scowled before passing the bottle back to Peter who took it quickly.

Remus smiled at him, tasted like Wolfsbane to him. Peter nodded quickly and whispered something at the door clicking it open and stepping out.

"Peter," whispered Remus. Peter turned to one of his former best friends.

"Thanks," grinned Remus. Peter smiled at him and left closing the door behind him.

Remus leant back against the wall and sighed happily. Peter may have done a terrible thing in betraying them but he'd made a small portion up to them tonight. With his mind now at rest Remus lay down next to Harry, closed his eyes and drifted off to sleep peacefully.

Back in the present time Remus woke early, the sky still looked grey from outside. He stretched himself against the will of his protesting muscles, he glared at his collection of blankets, that he called a bed, and scowled at them.

That had been a dreadful nights sleep, the floor was cold and hard, the blankets were scratchy. Not to mention all he wanted to do was find Draco's room and drag him off to Hogwarts as quickly as possible.

He stood up and hurriedly got washed and changed before haphazardly making his bed.

He sat on the end Tonks' bed and put his head in his hands.

Draco had bodyguards which made him and Tonks outnumbered, he snorted at Dumbledore's logic. Who did he know that could help him? He thought a while thinking back to his time underground last year.

Hadn't there been a small unnoticed group of werewolves like him, unwilling to kill innocent people. Closing his eyes he tried to remember. Nodding to himself he remembered when they'd hidden him once when Greyback came for a visit.

He'd got their names somewhere. He sniffed slightly and walked to his case thrusting open the lid and rummaged through hastily.

"What you looking for?" he heard a sleepy voice yawn.

Looking up he saw that Tonks had woken and was watching him inquisitively from her curled up position on the bed. He smiled at her,

"Reinforcements," he replied before burying his head back in his case.

Finally he emerged triumphantly holding a small black book, Tonks smirked slightly it looked like those books that muggles kept their previous dates in.

Quickly she masked her smirk into an inquisitive smile.

"What's that?"

Remus sat on the end of her bed and quickly flicked through the pages.

"All sorts of stuff. Got meeting information in here. Healing potions, counter curses…" the list went on before Remus paused as if for effect.

"Useful contacts,"

He hit the page he was looking at and Tonks sat up and glanced at it.

She couldn't see much there were no names she recognised.

'Anya Zest, Shaun Parker and Sky Fraser,' she read to herself.

"Who are they?" she asked pushing the book back to Remus.

"They are werewolves…" he rushed to add the next bit when Tonks looked at him sceptically.

"Like me. They don't like being werewolves. They helped me," Tonks stared at him for a while.

"But why do we need them?" she mumbled. Remus rolled his eyes.

"Did you not see Draco's huge great big bodyguards with him? We're outnumbered two to one," Tonks sniffed in a defeated sort of way.

"And…look here," Remus pushed the book under her nose again pointing at something.

Tonks looked at it for a while before comprehension finally dawned.

"A muggle telephone number," she breathed.

Remus nodded at her before standing up quickly and rushing to his case and pulling out a potion with hair already added, he gulped it down quickly before walking to the door.

"I'm going to make a phone call," he said before he walked out his hair and face changing as he left.
