Disclaimer: I do not own the Harry Potter Series.
I felt faint and Harry grabbed on to me to keep me upright.
Standing before us was Sirius Black.
I looked at him and Harry pushed me back and raised his wand at Sirius.
"Now Harry, you should put your wand down." Lupin said walking into the room with his wand raised.
"What? Lupin! He is a traitor! He killed my parents and Railyyn's mom Haley!" Harry said angrily.
Sirius looked at Harry his eyes wide. "Kill Lily, James and," he choked out the last name, "Haley." In his eyes there was much sorrow. "I'm afraid Harry you believed the media to much because, I did not betray your parents, I loved them Harry, James was my best friend and Lily was one of the best people I have ever met, and it pains me that anyone could believe that I would betray them or Haley. I was on my way to visit them Haley had just gotten back from school and I wanted to say hi, I'm not the betrayer here." Sirius pointed at Peter Pedigrew. "You want a betrayer? That is your betrayer!"
Hermione looked at Lupin, their ex-professor who was sent by the Order of the Phoenix to watch Harry, "Is this true Lupin?"
Lupin took out a vile of truth serum and dropped some into Peter's mouth, "Did you tell He-who-must-not-be-named about Lily, James, and Harry?"
Peter grunted, "Yes."
"So you betrayed them?" Lupin pressed.
"Yes, the Dark Lord is not one I would want to not tell things to." Harry glared at Peter and raised his want again.
I put my hand on his arm and he lowered it, "Harry do not do anything you will regret." I said and Sirius looked at me.
"Railyyn?" he asked.
I nodded, "Yes and your Sirius Black."
Sirius nodded tears in his eyes.
I shifted under his gaze uncomfortably. Hermione walked over to me and Harry.
The silence was awkward and I increased it by walking towards Sirius.
"Did you know my mother?" I asked quietly.
Sirius nodded, "You look just like her except your hair color and your much paler."
I laughed, "Yeah, so I've heard."
Sirius nodded smiling.
"Do you know who my father is?" I asked quietly.
Sirius shook his head, "I only found out about you because of your mother's sister, Kayla, who gave you to an orphanage because she was very sick and then died about seven months after Haley died. Then I assume you were adopted?"
I nodded, "Yes, but I don't know who my father is and Sirius may I ask you something?"
Sirius nodded, "Are you sure you don't know who he is this would mean the world to me if I knew."
Sirius frowned, "I'm afraid I really don't know Railyyn I'm so sorry.
I nodded, "I should have known that no one would know it's fine." I said stepping back.
"Peter's turning into a rat!" Harry said and we all looked at him turning back into his animagus as we tried to catch him, but unfortunately we got away and then who else could go outside to find us, but Severus Snape.
"Why are you all not in your rooms and-" Snape stared at Sirius, "What are you doing here!"
"Leaving Severus, no need to cause a fuss, just stay quiet about this." Lupin said walking over to Snape.
He glared at all of us, "The four of you go to your rooms! Also there will be twenty points deducted from Gryffindor, each!"
"Ron is a bloody mess though professor." Hermione said as she tried to stable Ron.
"Take him to the hospital wing then Ms. Granger, but Ms. Wells and Mr. Potter go to the Headmaster's office." Snape hissed.
Harry and I trudged to Dumbledore's office and Snape, Lupin, and Sirius followed behind.
Snape walked ahead of us then and said to the gargoyle, "Licorice snaps." and a staircase appeared and we walked up it.
"Who is there?" we heard an old voice ask us from inside the office.
"Severus, Lupin, Mr. Potter, Miss Wells, and Black." Snape said.
"Come in quickly then." Dumbledore said as the door opened and he rose from the chair he was sitting in behind his desk.
"Mr. Sirius Black I am not to surprised to see you here, but why are you here?" Dumbledore said.
"Headmaster, I found all four of them on the grounds past curfew along with Mr. Ron Weasley and Miss Granger." Snape said annoyed.
"That is what you saw Severus, but I believe I asked Sirius why he would risk coming here." Dumbledore said looking back at Sirius.
Sirius looked at Dumbledore and cleared his throat, "Because Professor, I am not guilty and I came to seek out Peter Pedigrew, who due to an unfortunate circumstance has gotten away."
"You are not here to visit any orphans?" Professor Dumbledore asked raising his eyebrow and looking at Harry and I.
"I of course wanted to see them, they are two of my best friends' children." Sirius said not smiling.
Dumbledore sighed, "Unfortunately, You have escaped from Askaban and are to be condemned so, I can not change that. Mr. Potter and Miss Wells should be returned to the Gryffindor tower and Mr. Lupin you may leave the grounds and Mr. Black should be taken to the western tower."
"No, that's not fair Sirius is innocent." I said stepping forward and out of the corner of my eye I saw Sirius cringe when I called him Sirius.
"I'm sorry Miss Wells, but there is not evidence." Professor Dumbledore said as Snape escorted Sirius out.
I went to run after him, but Harry grabbed onto me and in the corner of Sirius's eyes I saw tears.
"Miss Wells please stay, Mr. Potter, Mr. Lupin you are free to leave." Professor Dumbledore said sitting down.
"Miss Wells I am going to say this short and sweet, kind of like the mini licorice sticks I had yesterday, why they were delightful!"
"Sir?" I interrupted slightly confused.
"Oh, yes, well, Mr. Black is innocent and by what you discovered to years ago, you may save his life and find out something you and Harry need to know." Professor Dumbledore said and it all came to me I had to rescue my true father.
