Chapter 5
Remus hears Andromeda and Nymphadora's conversation; he had no idea that she has strong feelings for him. He walks down to join Sirius and Harry with the caged Peter.
Remus watches as Harry and Sirius change Peter to his human self. Peter looks around the room and wonders where he is. He sees that he is in a room with Sirius, Remus and Harry again.
Peter notices that he isn't in the Shrieking shack like last time, he came face to face with is old school buddies and Harry. He makes a run towards the door but Sirius is too quick with his wand and before Peter knows it, he is tied to a chair.
Wormtail knows that there is no escape for him this time; he starts to pray in his head to Merlin himself that they let the Dementors have him but he knows his friends well enough to know that that is the good out come to the situation.
Remus has to calm Sirius down before he kills Peter before they have time to ask him some questions and hopefully turn him over to the Aurors. Harry keeps his wand trained on Peter while Remus is trying to calm Sirius down.
"I DID MY WAITING REMUS, OR HAVE YOU FORGOTTEN THAT HE HELPED VOLDEMORT KILL LILY AND JAMES." Remus shakes his head as Sirius continues to yell.
"DID YOU ALSO MISS THE BRUSIES HE PLACED ON DORA?" Remus once again shakes his head "I did see them Padfoot but you need to calm down, it won't help anyone if you get sent back to Azkaban, he isn't worth it think of Cassia and Harry."
Sirius takes a deep breath, he knows Remus is right, he has already missed twelve years of his own daughters' life because of this low life he wasn't about to let Peter take away any more time.
Sirius and Remus both turn to face the rat looking wizard. Sirius holds his wand steady in his hand "I hope you realise that your time is coming to an end Peter."
He just snivels at them and nods "please have mercy."
Sirius places his wand against Peter's neck "You have harmed a witch Peter but not only that, that witch happens to be my COUSIN."
Peter carries on snivelling "I didn't know, please have mercy, I didn't know." Sirius slaps him across the face "SHUT UP!" Harry watches his father's best friends, he knows that this is going to end badly; he is just hoping that Sirius doesn't end up in Azkaban again.
The door opens and Nymphadora joins them in the room "Mad-Eye wants to make sure that none of you *points to Harry, Remus and Sirius* do anything stupid and end up in Azkaban."
Dora sits down on a chair in the back of the basement, the wizards look at her "what? I didn't say I was going to stop you. He needs to pay for what he did to Lily and James."
Harry smiles "and you, I consider you family as well Tonks." She smiles "me too Harry but I can handle the filthy rat." She winks at Harry who smiles. Peter on the other hand is trying to get out of the rope which is holding him back; Sirius and Remus notice the look on his face and know that he is going to try to escape so he can hurt Harry.
Peter starts to mutter under his breath about pleasing his master, bring him the one he wants. Sirius stands in front of Harry so that if somehow, Peter did get free from the ropes then he won't be able to hurt Harry.
Remus however, notices that Peter isn't looking in Harry's direction but Tonks's, Remus stands in front of her with his wand in his hand ready to defend her. Dora notices this and stands up behind Remus with her wand ready in her hand.
"What does he want Peter? Who does Voldemort want?" Remus asks him, Sirius looks at Remus as if he has asked a dumb question.
Peter carries on mumbling about rare magic, the dark lord requires rare magic. "SPEAK UP RAT" Sirius yells at him, Peter looks up at Sirius then at Remus who Dora was standing behind "the dark lord wants rare magic, he wants rare magic."
Harry looks over at Remus and Nymphadora; he doesn't understand why Voldemort of all people would want rare magic from a half-blood. Harry looks back over at Peter "why does he want rare magic? Why does he want Nymphadora?"
Peter looks over at Harry "the dark lord knows about her rare magic, rare magic helps dark magic grow, Bellatrix told us all about her niece and her rare magic."
Nymphadora rolls her eyes "I just love our family, don't you Sirius." Remus reaches behind him and places his hand in hers "your safe here Dora, he can't get you here."
Kingsley and Mad-Eye appear in the doorway with their wands trained on the tied up Peter. They look around at everyone and they spot Nymphadora.
Mad-Eye notices the bruises around her neck "Lupin take her to St. Mungo's to get checked out and don't let her out of your sight."
Remus nods and leads Dora up the stairs and into the kitchen where everyone from the Order was including Severus Snape, they all look at Dora "what's going on?"
Andromeda hugs her daughter tightly "everything is going to be alright, I promise you he won't get his hands on you."
Nymphadora hugs her mum back "Peter already told us about Bellatrix's little speech, I'll be fine mum. I look after Werewolves, I can handle Voldy."
Sirius and Harry walk into the kitchen, they both notice the presence of everyone including Severus so they know what Peter was mumbling about was true, Voldemort really was going after Nymphadora so her magic could help him rise to power, quicker.
Kingsley and Mad-Eye drags Peter into the kitchen, everyone had their wands trained on Peter; he starts to whimper again. Cassia pulls Sirius away from Peter and takes his wand from him, she doesn't want to lose her father again, after twelve years; she finally has him back and wasn't about to lose him again especially not because of Peter again.
Kingsley and Mad-Eye disappear with Peter, Remus looks at Dora "we better go." Dora sits down "I'm fine Remus, I don't need to get checked over, I'm still here and I'm still breathing."
Remus gently grabs her arm and gets her to her feet "I don't want Mad-Eye locking me up because I listened to you and not him." Andromeda looks over at them "Listen to Remus and Mad-Eye honey, please get yourself checked out."
Nymphadora sighs "I will go and get my neck looked at to make everybody happy and so Remus doesn't get locked up." Remus takes Dora to the hospital.
Molly fills Sirius and Harry in about what Snape had told them about Bellatrix's speech to Voldemort about Nymphadora's rare magic and that her magic could help Voldemort rise to power quicker.
Nymphadora sits on the hospital bed swinging her legs; she looks over at Remus "I am fine Remus. I can handle Voldemort." Remus looks at her "we don't think you can't Dora but we want to protect you just in case, we all care about you and we all look out for each other."
She places her hand over his "I know but I don't want this to affect my job because I don't want to let my wolfies down."
Remus smiles "your wolfies huh?" She nods "My wolfies and Moony is one of them, I look after them. I looked after you and Moony didn't I." He nods "I am very grateful for that, so why don't you let me repay the favour, let me look after you."
The mediwitch looks Dora over and rubs some bruise lotion on her neck "you are very lucky to be alive, if it had been any tighter, it would have snapped your neck."
Dora looks down at the floor; she knew that Remus and the others would be angry once they found out that she risked her own life so that Lily, James and Sirius finally got the justice that they deserve.
That night the wards around Grimmuald place are made stronger, Molly and Sirius were checking on the children to make sure that they were safe. Sirius places Cassia's blanket over her which woke her up.
"Dad, Dora is going to okay isn't she?" Sirius lies down beside his daughter "of course she will, Uncle Moony likes her and won't admit it but we know and he'll protect her."
Cassia cuddles up to him "just until I fall asleep." Sirius hugs her "I'll stay until you push me away darling."
Nymphadora walks into the basement to make sure that Remus/Moony is alright. She places a blanket over the sleeping werewolf; Moony opens his eyes and licks her hand.
She looks at him and sits down in front of him "Everyone is safe Remus, I'm right here. Do you want me to sleep down here with you?" Moony nudges her hand.
She gets comfy against him; Moony places his paw over her to keep her close to him so that he knows she is there and safe. Moony may take over Remus's body but Remus's mind was still there in Moony's body a little.
Half an hour later, the basement door opens, Moony opens his eyes and growls at the person who is approaching them, Sirius laughs "calm down Moony, I just wanted to make sure that she was down here before we sent out a search party. I know you are in there Remus. You need to man up and admit that you have deep feelings for her."
Moony places his head down and looks at Sirius with big puppy dog eyes. Sirius laughs "You need to man up Remus John Lupin, she makes you both happy. Moony and you won't be complete without her. I know she deeply cares about you and she has feelings for you. You deserve to be happy and loved, don't let her go."
Sirius leaves them and lets Remus think about the possibility of losing Nymphadora to someone else. Moony repositions his paw on her so that she is against him more.
Will Remus confess his feelings to Nymphadora?
Will Voldemort get Nymphadora and her magic?
