Chapter Two

Remus woke up in the morning to find himself laying in the kitchen. He slowly got up and looked around. He had destroyed the kitchen. He looked into the front room and saw it was also destroyed. He started to get worried when he saw the bedroom door broke down. He slowly entered the room, which was also destroyed. He looked in the bathroom and looked around. He saw some blood on the broken window. He looked outside the window and saw a few spots of blood leading away from the house.

He looked at himself in the mirror and a look of horror crossed his face. He had some dried blood on his face. He quickly washed off the blood and got dressed. He searched the house and outside the house, but he couldn't find Emily anywhere. He ran back inside and over to the fireplace. He went to James's housse. When he got there, he saw Emily sleeping on the couch. James came running into the front room and looked at Remus, who kneeled down by Emily.

"How did she get here?" Remus asked, looking at James.

"Sirius found her," James said, "said she was laying on the ground away from the house."

Remus looked her up an down and noticed her leg was wrapped in bandages. He looked up to see that James had left. He looked back down at her leg. He looked around before slowly lifting the wrapping up to see the wound. He saw the wound and started crying. Emily opened her eyes and looked at him. He had laid his head on her stomach. She took her hand and ran it through his hair. He turned his head toward her. She gave a small smile and looked at the ceiling.

"I'm so sorry," Remus said through his tears.

"I'll be fine," Emily whispered, "don't worry about it."

Remus kept on crying. In the kitchen, Sirius, Lily, and James could hear him. Lily looked about ready to cry herself. Sirius and James were leaning up against the counter.

"What do you think is going to happen?" James asked, looking at Sirius.

"I don't know," Sirius said, looking at the ground, "I hope he don't leave her after this."

"He won't," Lily said.

Just than they heard the fireplace. They went into the front room to see that they were both gone. Sirius looked at both of them, before they went back to doing what needed to be done today.

Remus and Emily got home. Emily leaned up against the wall, not standing on her right leg. Remus waved his wand around and everything started fixing itself. He did the same thing in the kitchen, bedroom, and bathroom. Remus helped Emily lay down on the couch.

"Get some rest," Remus whispered, kissing her forehead.

Emily nodded her head and closed her eyes. She was soon asleep. Remus made sure she was asleep, before going into the bedroom. He pulled out his bag and put as many clothes as he could into it. He left the bedroom and looked down at Emily with a sigh.

"I'm so sorry," Remus whispered.

Remus went into the kitchen. He sat down at the table and started to write a note. Once he was done he put it on the table in the front room. He went to the door and opened it. He gave one more look around the house before closing the door and walking away.

Emily woke up in the middle of the night and looked around. She saw the note on the table. She sat up and picked it up. She slowly read the road:

When you wake up, I'll be gone. I'm sorry I can't stay there. Everytime I look at you, I can only think of what I did. I don't know if you will ever forgive me for what I did. I ruined your life. I don't know if you will ever see me again. Sorry, Remus

Emily read the note over and over again, tears running down her face. She couldn't believe that he just left. Emily stood up, ignoring the sharp pain in her leg. She went and got her wand. She stood in the front room. She pointed her wand at the fireplace and it blew apart. She went into the bedroom and destroyed it. She slowly walked outside and turned to the house. With a wave of her wand, all the windows broke. She waved it a few more times. Soon the house was on fire. She looked around, before sending up the dark mark. She put her wand away, turned around and just walked away from the scene.

In the morning, Sirius, James, and Lily heard about what happened to the house. They told them no bodies had been found. Lily had started crying. James comforted her. Remus arrived their about an hour later, looking around at them.

"Is she here?" Remus asked.

"No," Sirius whispered, giving Remus an odd look.

"Than she must of escaped," Remus said, trying not to cry.

"Weren't you there last night?" James asked, looking a bit shocked.

"No," Remus said, sitting down, "I had left."

"Why did you leave?" Lily asked, folding her arms.

"Went to get something that might help with the pain," Remus quickly said, not wanting them to know he had actually just walked out on her.

Sirius didn't seem to be convinced at all, but he didn't say anything. After awhile of being there, Remus left. Sirius watched as he walked down the road. He knew something wasn't right.
