"Snape!" shouted Remus. Snape glanced in the direction Remus was looking and understood instantly. He turned abruptly to assist Harry, as three more Death Eaters hurtled around the corner.

"Hermione," called Remus behind him. Hermione wheeled around.

"I need someone else up here...he's not doing too well," Remus nodded towards his past self who had now fallen to his knees.

Moony had tried to cover Remus' back when he'd turned around and was paying for it dearly now. His vision flickered in front of his eyes, and he fought to stay conscious. This was not a good time to pass out.

Hermione rushed between Remus and Moony, her wand ready. From what she could tell she was a back up, but she was well prepared. She offered her hand out to Moony to help him up, and he grasped it weakly and pulled himself up. Remus was once again deflecting the many spells, curses and hexes thrown at them all.

Snape strode briskly towards Harry and Ron grasping Sirius' sleeve on the way pulling him forward with him. Ron wasn't fit to fight, and him and Harry couldn't do it alone. From what he'd seen whilst he was here...Sirius was the fittest out of him and James.

As he reached Harry, Snape shoved Sirius to Harry's left. He grabbed Ron's shoulder and placed him behind himself whilst he stood to Harry's right.

The entire Order from both past and present were now organised to protect the vulnerable...those that were pregnant, injured and/or recovering.

"Crucio!" screeched Remus' Deatheater desperately, holding his wand firmly at Remus.

"Protego," shouted Remus as he turned to his left slightly. The spell hit the shield at an odd angle and rebounded.

Remus watched with horror as, as if in slow motion, the spell collided with Hermione and she fell to the ground. She screamed uncontrollably.

"Hermione," Remus croaked, all rational thoughts completely falling out of his head as he knelt next to Hermione's rigid body.

As far as he knew he had never intentionally hurt anybody as a werewolf. To him Hermione was now in extreme pain, because of him...and the fact he had been human and in control of his own mind made it twenty times worse.

The Death Eater grinned nastily down at the defeated man kneeling on the floor, Hermione's curse had been lifted but she appeared to be in pain all the same. The Death Eater raised his wand slowly.

"Impedimenta!"

The Death Eater flew backwards and smashed against the wall next to his fallen colleague. He attempted to get up...but could barely blink.

Remus looked around him quickly and stared unbelievably at Tonks behind him, looking fiercely at the incapacitated Death Eater.

"Nym..." murmured Remus standing up to face her. Tonks lowered her wand as Remus grasped her hand.

"...Thank you so much...but you need to be careful and stay back...safe," he continued.

"Don't patronize me," hissed Tonks glaring at Remus angrily.

"I'm more the capable of fighting along with the rest of you,"

"Nym...please," Remus pleaded, looking deeply into her eyes. She stared up into his amber eyes that were glistening slightly with unshed tears.

"Trust me," he murmured kissing her hand softly.

Tonks wasn't sure what she didn't know that Remus did...but the look in his eyes...the same one he'd given her earlier...convinced her for now. She nodded and he dropped her hand and went to help Hermione up...he was need up at the front now.

Snape assessed the odds of the battle facing him. Harry and Sirius were both undernourished and weak...that meant that he was the strongest out of the three of them.

"Stupefy," he shouted pointing his wand roughly in front. This sudden movement caught the first Death Eater completely off guard and he crumpled to the floor.

"Petrificus Totalus," yelled Sirius. The bright light shot towards the second Death Eater at alarming speed, the Death Eater reacted with hasty shield and the spell rebounded against the wall.

Sirius staggered into Harry slightly and Harry tried to steady him. Suddenly Sirius' weight disappeared from his shoulder and Harry looked around, Remus was putting Sirius back on his feet...relief exploded in Harry's chest as Remus' smiled at him warmly.

"I'm so glad to see you," murmured Harry as Remus stood beside him taking Sirius' place.

"Me too," smiled Remus...there was time later for warm greetings.

"We have little time for niceties Lupin can you please concentrate at the task in hand," shouted Snape above the noise of spells exploding against the walls as his shield deflected them.

Remus' eyes flashed with annoyance briefly before he nodded curtly.

"We'll need to work together though...we haven't got time for any of this," Remus replied.

Both Snape and Harry nodded at him.

"Proelium tectum,"

"Stupefy!"

"Petrificus Totalus!"

Three coloured beams of light shot towards the Death Eaters...one circled the Death Eaters continually whilst the other two hit the Death Eaters directly. All three spells were shouted simultaneously. One prevented a shield spell from bring conjured, the other two disabled the two Death Eaters instantly.

Harry sagged as the Death Eaters dropped.

"Quickly, we're not out yet," muttered Remus gesturing for them all to move on.

A/N I know it's not the best in the world...really I do.

But this chapter doesn't end so bad does it?...not so much of a cliffhanger?
