"Remus, Remus!" Sirius called as he carried Timothy over to the living room and ran to get a blanket. "Remus!" he called again as the fear began to rise inside him. Sirius ran back over to where he put the boy. Then he wrapped Timothy in the blanket. "Remus!" he called one last time because the werewolf was walking down the stairs.

"What is it Padfoot, your hurting my ears?' Remus asked slightly annoyed, but he had a playful smile on his face. However, his smile was wiped off his face when he saw Timothy laying on the couch shaking. "What,' he cleared his throat. "What happened?" Remus asked running over to the living room. Sirius looked at his werewolf friend and cleared his throat

"I woke up and went into the kitchen. I found him looking around. He looked scared. So when I asked him what was wrong. All he said that he was cold, then he fell in my arms," he paused to look at Remus. Remus nodded and opened his mouth to say something but Sirius answered the question in his mind. "But Moony he does not have a fever. I," Sirius trailed off looking at Remus who had a terrified look on his face.

"Sirius, what if, what if the boys dieing? I, I don't think he's magic and werewolf bites kill muggles," Sirius looked at his friend. He has not seen him this scared since he and the other marauders found out that Remus was a werewolf back when they were in school. Then he saw Remus's face get red with anger. "I'm,"

"No, you're not, stay here," Sirius cut him off.

"I'm going to kill him," Remus said as he started to walk to the door with Sirius close behind. Sirius bit his lip and pulled out his wand.

"I'm sorry Moony," he said before he muttered a spell and Remus fell to the floor.

Tonks woke to the sound of Remus falling to the floor. "What?" she asked voice filled with sleep. "What are they doing?" she asked herself as she got out of bed and went to the stares. Then she froze on the stairs when she saw her husband lying on the floor. "What did you do?" she asked as her hair turned red with anger. Sirius raised his hands in the air dropping his wand in the prosses. "What did you do?" she asked again as her hair got redder and redder.

"He, he was going after Greyback,"

"So, you knocked him out, really," She rolled her eyes. Sirius looked at Remus then over to the living room.

"Doggy, Doggy," Timothy called, making Sirius run over to him.

"Yes, pup?" Sirius said getting worried.

"I'm cold," the little werewolf shivered. Tonks who was over by Remus picked him up and carried him.

"What are we going to do about Remus?" Tonks asked putting him in a chair. Sirius only shrugged.

"We need to worry about Timothy at the moment,"

"Cold," he said shaking. Tonks put her hand to Timothy's forehead, but it was not warm.

"He does not have a fever. I think we need to take him to Madame Pomfrey," Sirius nodded and picked up the boy. He was right at the fireplace when he froze and turned around.

"What about Remus?" he said thinking out loud. Tonks thought for a moment.

"Let's take him with us, I don't want him to go and do something crazy," Sirius nodded as they both Flooed to the hospital wing at Hogwarts.

"Madame Pomfrey, Madame Pomfrey," Sirius yelled holding the boy shaking in his arms. Tonks stepped out of the fireplace holding Remus, who has not woken yet. "Madame Pomfrey," Sirius yelled again. He was going to yell again, but Tonks put her finger to her lips and said:

"Shhhh, be quiet cousin. You don't want to wake Remus, do you? You know he's a light sleeper, and I don't want him to wake up and do something crazy, like try to kill Greyback," Sirius sighed then nodded. Then Madame Pomfrey came out of her office to see Timothy then looked over to Remus.

"What happened? Remus, he did not…... bite him, did he?" she asked taking the shaking boy out of Sirius's arms. Sirius shook his head as Tonks put Remus down on a bed and went over to the boy.

"Cold, cold," Timothy kept saying. Pomfrey took a thermometer and put it in the boy's mouth. Pomfrey took it out after it beeped a few seconds later.

"He does not have a fever," she hums. "But there is something wrong with him and I'm not sure what it is. Maybe when Mr. Lupin wakes he can tell us," Sirius and Tonks nodded.

Remus woke a few minutes later to the sound of a little voice saying. "I'm cold, doggy I'm cold," Remus's heart broke as he tried to sit up, but he winced and looked around him. To his annoyance. Sirius had put up a silver dome around the bed that he was laying on.

"You don't trust me don't you," Remus said with a sigh. Sirius looked over to him.

"What of course we trust you, we just, we just don't want you do go after Greyback. He's not worth it Moony," Sirius said voice breaking. Remus sighed and nodded.

"I'm sorry Padfoot, I," he shook his head. "How's Timothy?" Remus asked changing the subject.

"He says that he's cold, but he does not have a fever, do you know whats wrong?" Sirius asked looking at his friend who has his hand to his chin thinking. Then he remembered.

"Timothy is transitioning to a werewolf. This is one of the side effects. I remember going through the same thing when I was his age," Remus said sadly thinking about that night. Sirius and Tonks nodded. They remember when he told them this.

"Do you remember how long it lasts?" Sirius asked looking at the young werewolf. Remus shook his head and ran his hand over his face and laid it across his eyes.

"No, I don't, I was asleep for most of it, I'm sorry about what happened earlier,"

"You don't need to be sorry, I wanted to kill my own cousin, but I did not. We can get through this," Remus nods at his friend and closed his eyes.

A few hours later and they were all allowed to leave. This was a good thing because Remus was getting light headed from the silver dome that he was stuck in. "So, you won't go after him," Tonks asked at dinner that night. Timothy was not listening as they spoke about something that he was unsure of.

"No, I will not, for now, I still want him dead, but right now, I think we need to think about how we are going to tell Teddy that he has a new brother and he is a werewolf," Remus sighed looking at his new son who was eating. He was still wrapped in a blanket and he was drinking hot chocolate. The blanket had a warming charm on it to keep Timothy warm. Sirius nodded.

"We need to think of something fast because, Teddy comes home in two days," Everyone nodded at what Sirius had said.

The next day went by slow. Remus was excited to see his son again after his first year, but he was also nervous to see him because of Timothy. Sirius had told him that Teddy would love to have a new brother, and that he will love him just like he loves his dad, even though he is a werewolf and Teddy would love Timothy just the same. By the time that Tonks was cooking dinner Remus and Sirius had Teddy's room ready for the summer when Teddy gets home. "Dinner time," Tonks called with excitement in her voice. "I think she's more excited for tomorrow then you are Moony," Sirius laughed as they walked down the stairs. Timothy was in Remus's arms still wrapped in the blanket.

"Shut up Padfoot," Remus said laughing back. It was a nice dinner, a lot of laughing and joking. The Marauders told stories to Timothy about their school days. They both knew that Timothy was magic because he would be dead if he wasn't. This made Remus relax a lot more, but he felt nervous for next month.

"Remus, Remus?" Remus looked at Tonks who was trying to get his attention because Timothy was rubbing his eyes.

"Right, come on cub, let's go take a bath," the little boy smiled as Remus picked him up.

"Night, night doggy," Timothy said the same thing he said the night before. Only this time Tonks laughed, and Sirius joined.

"Ok, Tim. Bedtime," Remus said putting the boy down.

"Remy?" Remus looked at the boy.

"Yes?" Remus said back sitting on the end of the bed.

"Who's Teddy?" Timothy asked. Remus saw his big amber eyes shine in the moonlight. Remus sighed and nodded to himself.

Tell him about Ted now so he does not be scared by him tomorrow. Remus thought before he took a breath. "Teddy is my son, he's going to be your brother," he paused looking at the face of his new son. He seems happy. "We," he continued. "We are going to pick him up tomorrow. Would you like to come?" Remus asked. Timothy put his little finger to his chin and hummed. This made Remus smile, but his heart broke at the same time because the boy's parents hate him. Remus's hand went into a fist in anger as the wolf took control.

"Remy are you," the boy broke off when he saw Remus's eyes twitch in anger. Then he looked at the boy's face and saw that he was terrified. Remus snapped out of his anger and nodded.

"Yes, sorry pup," Timothy smiled and rubbed his little eyes again, then he yawned.

"I, would love to come with you, but what if he does not want, a, a brother? What if he does not like me, because of as you say what we are," Remus smiled then he laughed. He stopped when he saw the look of confusion on Timothy's face.

"I said the same thing when I started school, but you know what," Timothy shook his head. "He will like you, no he will love you. It does not matter what we are, or what people say. We are, what we are, and we can't change that. We have to live through this and hope that someone will find a cure." He paused. I doubt it, He thought. Remus sighed then he continued"it will get better, ok," Timothy yawned and then nodded. Then he closed his eyes and fell asleep.

Remus sat by the boy for a few minutes until he knew he was truly asleep then sighing he walked out of the room. He then walked into the living room to see Tonks reading a book with Sirius laying on the couch in his Animagus form. He appeared to be asleep. "Is he asleep?" Tonks asked as Remus sat in the other chair by the fire and grabbed the book that he had been reading and turned it to the last page he was reading.

"Yes, dear, he did," the werewolf said simply sticking his nose in the book and started to read.

"Teddy will love him, Rem, don't worry," Remus smiled and went back to his book.

Remus was the first to wake the next morning. He like Timothy had nerves about seeing his son again. Remus laid in bed reading one of Teddy's letters from earlier this year. He smiled to himself and got out of bed to get ready for the day. When he was done he walked down the stairs and into the dining room and started to make breakfast. Sirius still in his Animagus form got off the couch and ran into the kitchen and started to bark. "No, no barking, bad snuffles," Remus teased as Sirius turned back into a human.

"I thought we said you will never call me that," Sirius said laughing. Remus smiled and went back to making breakfast. Tonks came down with Timothy in her arms and smiled when she smelled breakfast.

"Smells good Rem," Tonks said as she put Timothy down in a chair and she sat in a chair herself.

Breakfast went by quick as did the rest of the day. It was not long until the family went to King's Cross, to pick up Teddy. Remus was getting more and more nervous as they approached the platform. "Ready, Remus?" Sirius whispered into his best friend's ear. Remus nodded as they all went through Platform 9 3\4. The train pulled up and all the kids came running out talking about the past year. Remus smiled when he saw Teddy talking to his friends then he almost fell over as he pushed his cart and started to run over to his family.

"Mum, dad, snuffles," Teddy laughed as he ran over to his family after he said goodbye to his friends and the Potter's and Weasley's.

"Hey, Ted," Remus said smiling at his son. Then he let out a breath. "Ted, can I tell you something?" Teddy nodded. Remus took a breath as Tonks put a hand on his shoulder. Remus smiles. "It's ok Timothy, you don't need to hide," Teddy, who had a small smile on his face smiled bigger.

"Teddy, meet Timothy," Teddy smiled again as his hair turned pink like his mothers.

"Hello, Timothy. My names Edward, but you can call me Teddy," Timothy smiled and walked away from Remus's legs and walked over to Teddy and smiled back.

"Ok, let's go home. Teddy, I can't wait to hear about your first year," Tonks said as they all went home.

Everyone was happy Teddy was home, and Remus and Timothy felt more relaxed knowing that Timothy likes him, but Remus still needs to tell Teddy about Timothy's 'furry little problem.' "Teddy can I talk to you about something," Remus asked Teddy while he was unpacking. Teddy nodded.

"Anything dad, what is it?" Teddy asked as Remus sat on his bed. Remus took a breath. "Dad?" Remus shook his head.

"It's about Timothy. He um. Do you know the story of how I was bitten?" Teddy nodded.

"It was Greyback wasn't it?" Remus nods.

"Well, while you were at school. Greyback bit a child, Timothy, and his parents," Remus trailed off, and Teddy looked at him with worry on his face as he saw the wolf in his father's eyes.

"Dad are you ok?" Teddy asked, his voice was shaking. Remus looked at him.

"Yes. Sorry, I scared you, Ted. Anyway, his parents left him. Because they think that Tim is a monster. So," Remus laughed. "I tripped the boy's father with my cane. The Minister then told me to be his father now because he is a werewolf and, I, need to keep him safe from Greyback," Remus finished without adding that he wants to kill the werewolf. "Are you ok with having another werewolf in the house son?" Remus asked voice shaking with nerves. Teddy looked at his father and thought for a moment as he took out his Hufflepuff robes out of his trunk.

"I think it's a good idea, dad. His parents don't know what they are talking about," Teddy said still unpacking. Remus smiled at his son.

"Thank you, Ted, you know how hard that was for me," Teddy smiles and gets off the floor to hug his father.

"I know dad,"

"I will call you for dinner ok, I know you might have homework," Teddy laughed and nodded.

"Thanks," Teddy said as Remus left the room.

Later that night Remus said good night to Teddy. "Good night dad," Teddy said as he looked at his father who looked down at the floor, then he looked back to his son. "Dad, are you ok? You seem lost," Teddy asked. Timothy was in the doorway smiling at his new father and brother, but his smile faded when he heard Teddy ask this.

"What, oh yes, Ted, I 'm just happy that you are home. Tomorrow you can tell us everything alright?" Teddy did not look convinced, but he nodded anyway. Remus smiled and pulled the covers over his son and went over to the doorway to pick up Timothy.

"Ok, Tim, do you want to say goodnight to Teddy?" Timothy nodded, and Remus walked over to Teddy.

"Good night Tim. Welcome to the family," Remus's heart melted and he smiled as Timothy rubbed his eyes.

"Ok, time for bed," Remus said carrying Timothy out of the room.

It did not take long for Timothy to fall asleep. Remus was grateful for this. Smiling to himself he went out of the room and went down the stairs. The werewolf was not surprised when he saw Sirius laying on the couch in his Animagus form licking his paw. "Ew, don't do that Padfoot that's disgusting," Remus teased as he sat down in his favorite chair by the fire. It was cold that night for the beginning of the summer. Remus took a book off the end table and started to read. It was quiet for a while and Sirius had fallen asleep in his Animagus form. Remus smiled at the big bear like black dog laying on his paws. Thank you, Sirius, you don't deserve anything you went through. Remus got lost in his thoughts when he heard his owl tapping her beak on the window he jumped. Remus smiled and went over to open the window. Sirius woke to look at the owl. While Tonks looked up from her book to see the bird fly into the home. "Hello Hope," Remus said taking the letters from the owl. Hope flew into the living room and landed on top of the bookshelf.

"Hope?" Sirius questioned as he turned back into his human form. Remus nodded. "Is that the name of your mother?" Remus nodded and gave Tonks on of the letters. She smiled at him and opened it. Remus nods.

"She died a long time ago, right after Lilly and James died," Remus said sadly as he looked at the letter that had no name on it. Remus's eyebrows shot up. Curiously he opened it. However, his hands began to shake as he read it.

"What is it Rem?" Tonks asked looking at him. Remus gave his wife and best friend a fake smile before he ran up to his study.

Remus slammed the door, breathing hard as he sat down at his desk and ran his hand down his face, before he read the letter again.

"Dear, cub,

I hope you're well. I'm not going to ask again, join me, join your people. Or I will sneak into your house and kill everyone in it, come we can finish this. You know you want to kill me, give in to your wolf and kill me. You know you have no choice now. You know where to find me,

Fenrir Greyback,"

Remus growled as he felt tears fall down his face. He then let out a sigh and apparated out of his study taking the letter with him. He reappeared in the woods a few blocks away from the manner. He then let out a loud sigh and sniffed the air for his alpha.

Sorry about this chapter if its boring. I did not really know what to do with it, but tell me what you think anyway. The calm before the storm. I think that's what this chapter is. I'm really happy that you guys like it, well till next time.
