Remus had Kain's face nice and clean and her teeth rushed as well as his. "Wha I tall you?" She asked. Her amber eyes starring at him, they were so cute. "You can call me Remus or Moony which you think sounds better." He picked her up from the bathroom counter. "Wemus." Kain tried saying his name. She was behind on her speech it should be much clearer then that. But then again she hadn't had human contact and was locked away from the world for the past year.
They walked into the kitchen Harry had his head on the table looking sleepy. He sat up when Remus walked in. His eyes settled on the child in his arms. Kain hid her face in the crook of Remus' neck. "Hi Kain. My name is Harry."
"No need to be shy pup. He won't hurt you We promise." Sirius took the child and set her on the counter. She looked and Harry who smiled and waved at her. She did a small wave back. She looked back up at Sirius. "Do ou ave a ame?" She asked.
"You can call me Sirius or Padfoot." he explained. He then tickled the pup. Kain squealed with laughter. "There's the smile I was looking for. Now how bout some breakfast. Hungry?" she nodded. While Remus and Sirius set to finishing breakfast Kain sat in a chair next to Harry. "Wha are ou talled agaim?" She asked looking the boy in the eye. "Harry."
"Arry." Kain smiled. She had nothing to fear of these people. The blond hadn't yelled at her or kicked her, but instead gave her chocolate. The gray-eyed man had held her and smiled at her made her feel warm and safe.

After some informing that her food would not be taken away from her. Kain ate slower, she had only been wolfing down his meal like a starving dog. (Pun intended) they had to find clothes for the youngest werewolf to wear. The night before she had been wiped down and one of Harry's shirts had been witched to fit her.
"Maybe we shouldn't take her out just yet. You and Harry go to Diagon Alley and I'll stay with the pup. Not to mention I still have to explain to her being a werewolf. I'm not sure if she really knows. All she may know is that she's done something and her family hated her." Remus watched his lover.
The werewolf had a very good point. "Alright you talk to the pup. Harry and I shall be back." The two disappeared with a pop. "Kain? Cub where are you?" Remus went up stairs to find the small child sitting on the floor of her bedroom looking at a mirror. She looked at herself as if she were an old woman who had realized she had aged and time had gotten away from her.
"You okay?" Remus ventured further into the room. "How tum my mummy and daddy don' want me an' more?" she looked at him. "Well you know how every once in a while you feel really tired and your in a lot of pain?" He asked. "Yeah."
"Well Your a werewolf. On the full moon you turn into a wolf and run around in the woods." He explained. "Do you remember being bitten or having what seemed like a bad dream before you went to the cellar?" Kain nodded.
"It was a party. Me an my cousins were catchig' Fireflies ow back. Da 'oods were dark so we sway at da egde. Den der was squweaming an' a vewry big doggie bite me." She told him. "I wemember my mummy cwing and my daddy yelling. But tat alls I wemember."
"Well pup the doggie that bit you wasn't a dog. It was a werewolf and when he bit you it turned you into one. Your parents put you in the cellar because they didn't know what else to do. When the full moon is out you don't have a human mind. You know the way you think now?" she nodded. "Well during the full moon you won't think like that. But there's a potion that helps. I take it every full moon. It helps with the pain too."
"Your a werewolf like me?" Remus smiled down at her and nodded. "Can I stay wif ou? I no wanna go back to da cellar. I wanna stay wif ou big werewolf." Kain climbed into his lap. "I'm big werewolf huh? Well did you know that Padfoot and Harry can turn into dogs and no you don't have to go anywhere your going to stay right here with us." Kain hugged Remus around his neck.
"Remus we're back." Sirius sing-songed. "Come on pup let's go see what Padfoot and Harry got for you."
A week later Kain had adjusted well into the house. She spoke but not much, her personality was starting to peek through thanks to the always goofy and child like Sirius. Kain was incredibly sweet and loved handing out kisses to her guardians. She played with Harry too. The two didn't know how to understand each other. Harry would read to her and play with her but they were still understanding each other. Like when you bring a new baby home from the hospital the older sibling is thinking 'do I like you or are we going fight?'
Kain loved books, every night Remus and Sirius read to her till she fell asleep. Her least favorite colors were yellow and pink. Her favorite meal was steak. But that was it. Kain was in the living room with a few of her toys to play with while Remus and Sirius had been in the kitchen cooking food for the party Molly Weasley was throwing.
Everyone knew about the girl but no one had met her, so now it would be perfect for the others to welcome in the new family member. (Odd family but a good one) When Remus or Sirius took her to Diagon Alley she would hold tightly to them and hide behind them. They hadn't heard the potions professor Severus Snape pop in. He looked down at the child who looked up into cold dark eyes. "What are you looking at?" Kain's eyes started to water. She had meet Snape at the school once and she was terrified of the man still. She got up and ran crying into the kitchen calling for her Moony (Remus) or and she called him Moo-y.
Snape and was greeted with a glare from a very pissed off Sirius. "What did you do to my pup?" after the war had ended and Sirius came back they were sat down by a very scary Molly and told to make nice, least they wanted to be hexed my the mother of seven. So the two now can act civel and hold small conversation. But every now and again the two managed to piss each other off. Remus and Snape after the war had made settled things and he now made the wolfsbane.
"You said you wanted to see me. What do you want?" he asked. Since the war Snape didn't seem so server. He could talk to the werewolf now without problem. Although he was providing Remus with his wolfsbane, which was why the man was here today.
"Take Kain." Remus handed the child to Sirius. In the other room the two talked. "Is it safe to give a child wolfsbane?"
"Why would you need to do that?" Snape looked at the blond. "The child is a werewolf. The full moon is in two weeks. She's been a werewolf about a year now. I need to know if it's safe for her." Remus explained his problem. It was a problem. If Kain couldn't take wolfsbane she would have to be locked in the cellar which neither Sirius nor Remus wanted to put her through again. "It is safe for all werewolves. But the amount given has to change too much for a child and there will be a problem. She shall only need be given one forth of what you drink yourself. Should anything go wrong contact me straight away." Snape told him.
"Thank you for coming. Will we being seeing you at the Weasley's tomorrow night?" Remus asked. "No." Snape vanished. Back in the kitchen Sirius had the little wolf standing on a stool mixing cake batter. "She'll be a baker for sure." Sirius laughed. Snape had been forgotten. "What makes you think she'll be a baker?" Remus asked his lover. "Well a werewolf can't do much in the wizarding world unless she finds something to do in the muggle realm." Sirius answered.
"She'll do great in whatever she chooses to do."
"Do ou 'ean me Moo-y?" Kain looked up. "Yes we're talking about you and your not going to stop us. So deal with it." Sirius said. Kain flicked flour on his nose; She could get sassy when it was needed. Sirius then threw some on Kain's head. "Ou not pose to drow it at me Pa-foo." She giggled.
"Whom do I throw it at then?" Kain and Sirius looked at Remus. "Oh no you don't." Remus shook his head. Sirius threw a hand full of flour at the marauder. The war was on. The three threw flour back and forth till there was nothing left. There in the kicthen you would find two laughing grown men and a giggling little girl.
