Chapter 6: The Summer

I got up and finished packing. We be leave today so I really didn't sleep much. I put Shadow in his cage so I wouldn't forget him. The went down to breakfast with the boys. I just watched them eat not touching anything my self. I yawned and put my head on Remus shoulder. "You didn't sleep last night Mercy?"

Remus asked softly. I nodded my head to tired to talk. Ever one was talking about what they were going to do this summer. I didn't know what to do but then a few days ago. I knew what I was going to do.

I was going to find everything I could about the monster that kill my mother. Even if I'm not strong now but I will be. I want to know what I can about him so when I face him. I know what I'm up against.

"Mercy why are you growling for?"

Said James as he nudged me with his elbow. I looked at him.

"Was I?"

I didn't know that I was.

"Yes you were."

I smiled at them.

"Sorry I was just thinking about some stuff."

Then Sirius ask me the one question that I be avoiding.

"So Mercy what are you going to do this summer?"

I looked at him not showing anything on my face.

"Me nothing really."

But they wanted to know more. James said.

"So you guys are still going to come over this summer for a few week right?"

They nodded but me I didn't know if I would.

"Mercy your coming to right?"

I didn't look at him.

"I don't know James I need to see."

See if I could. I wanted to but I wanted to find every thing I could about the monster that smell like blood and death. James nodded not looking happy at all. I smiled at him.

"I try my hardest to come James."

Then he smiled.

As we sat down on the train. I pulled off my robes and stuffed them into my trunk. I had my mothers old black dragon leather back-pack opened. They looked at me as I let out Shadow who sat on Peters shoulder. I started to push my trunk in to it and it went in with ease. Then put Shadows cage in after it. Making sure that it wouldn't move around when I walk or run.

"How did you do that?"

Said all four boys at the same time. I looked at them as I sat down and Shadow jump from Peters should, to James head, to Sirius lap into mine.

"I put a undetectable Engorgement charm."

All but Remus knew what I was talking about. I rolled my eyes at them.

"It makes the object like my bag bigger on the inside and it doesn't weigh a lot."

I put my feet up on the set in front of me.

"Why would you do that for?"

I was ready for that.

"Cause I don't want people to be staring at me was I try dragging a trunk and a cage down the street."

They nodded and started to play pranks on people as they walked by. I laughed and had fun with them. But the time fly's when you have fun. The next thing I knew was we were pulling into Kings Cross. I sighed as I followed every one out onto the platform and throw the barrier. James parents were old. I smiled at them and said.

"Hello."

As he told them about his mates. The I saw Remus mother and father. They didn't look happy to see him. Guess they didn't like having a werewolf for a son. I walked over to them before Remus could get them to turn and walk away. I wrapped my arm around Remus and kissed his cheek.

"Have a great holiday Remus. And see you at James if I can if not I see you on the train."

I kissed his cheek one more time. Smiled at his family and walked away. There was a family in front of me. Then I saw that Sirius was with them. Must be his family, his mother was talking low but she was angry.

"You in Gryffindor?"

Then she started to say how he put sham on the family. He did tell us that all of his family had have been in Slytherin. Poor Sirius. Then he looked at me and gave me a small smile. But this mother and father must have seen him smile cause they both looked at me.

Then there eyes got big with shock. I didn't know what to do but I smiled a little at them. I was going to walk around them when his mother put a hand on my arm to stop me.

"Is your surname Wolf?"

I didn't know what was going on.

"Umm yes ma'ma."

Was all I said. Then she looked at her son then back at me.

"Are you a pure blood?"

I looked at her.

"Yes I am."

Or that's what my mother said.

"Hmm this could work out. Were is your family?"

I looked down.

"My mother was kill before term started and I don't know who my father is."

She looked at me with sad eyes. I found that shocking by what Sirius told me about his mother. She didn't care about anyone.

"You have no other family?"

I shook my head. Sirius looked at me with shock on his face. I gave him a please-don't-tell-the-others look. He nodded.

"Will my dear. You becoming with us."

Before I could tell you anything she pulled me along with her. Sirius gave me a sorry look.

The House of Black was huge. It was nice but I didn't like the heads of house-elves on the wall. I was put in a room on the second landing. I stayed in there when they showed me to the room. Then a knocked came. I looked at the door a little scared to answer it. But then Sirius came in and sat on my bed.

"Sorry about my mother. The Wolf family is one of the very pure bloods that my mother would love to have one of her sons marry to."

I started to see why she wanted me to come over.

"Its ok but I really need to leave."

Sirius look sad.

"I see but it would be nice to have someone that its my family here."

I sat next to him and put a hand on his knee.

"For you I stay but I need to look for something."

He smiled at me then he flung him self at me. Hugging me hard but I put my arms around his waist. Then his father walked in and we break apart fast.

"Oh! I'm sorry I didn't mean to intrude. But dinner is done."

Then he left. I looked at Sirius his face was pink so was my face.

"Will lets go before my mother comes up."

I saw a boy young then Sirius. Sirius whispered to me.

"That's my younger brother Regulus."

I nodded and I was made to sit in between the two sons of Black. The dinner was great and they talk about how nice it would be if Sirius and I started dating when we get older. When it was done I went to the room.

I wanted to take a shower to I walked to the bather locked the door. Turned on the hot water then got in. The hot water felt great and as I looked down the cover up was washing off. The three scars that ran from my right shoulder to my lower back.

The tattoo that I have on my wrist of a wolf paw print. It was blue and purple mixed. I washed my hair and shaved.

S~^~^~^~^~^~^~M~^~^~^~^~^~^~F

When I got out I for got my clothes to I wrapped a towel around me. I peaked my head out of the door. No one was out there so I ran to my room. I pulled out my clothes then I started to let the towel slide off. Then someone came in with out knocking.

I held the towel tight around me. But the of it was down to my lower back. Showing my scars. I looked over my shoulder to see Sirius there. With his mouth opened he just stared at me. He was going to leave.

"Wait Sirius we need to talk. Please come in and lock the door if you please."

He locked the door and I sat on the bed with the towel still on. He came and sat with me.

"What happened to your back?"

Sirius asked after a while. I took in a deep breath.

"When I was younger I was attacked by a pack of werewolf."

He looked at me.

"Thought werewolf's didn't do the pack thing?"

I nodded.

"The ones here don't but I was attacked in America. They are different from the ones over here. It was the full moon and I lost my mother but found a pack. The attacked me but my mother came and saved me. All I got is that scar. Over the years the rest healed but that one never heal."

I said. He looked at me.

"But why haven't I seen it before?"

I smiled at little.

"I use cover up. Its special I make it my self. It lasts longer then and it washes off after four days."

He nodded. I pulled out the jar I was running out. Sirius looked at me.

"Do you need help?"

I looked at him. It was a pin in the bum to do it with out magic.

"If you don't mind."

I gave him the jar and a piece of cloth.

"You don't need a lot to cover it."

I said but he saw the tattoo on my left wrist.

"When did you get a tattoo?"

I looked at it.

"A few weeks after I got attack."

I let him look at it for a while. Then he started to put the cover-up on my back. It was cold but I didn't flinch away. He stared from my shoulder and worked his way down to my lower back. He did one mark at a time. There was four so it took a while.

"If you don't mind can you not tell anyone? Not even the guys?"

He pull me back into him. His arms went around my shoulders.

"I wont. You're my best mate. I wont tell anyone."

I turned and kissed his cheek.

"Thank you Sirius."

Then he left and I put on my clothes.

Its been a few weeks and we got a letter from James. Asking if we were going to come and stay a week with him. Sirius wanted to go and I wanted to get away from his family. He wrote back telling him that we be there tomorrow.

We packed that night and the next morning we used floo powder. The first time I ever used floo powder. Sirius went before me. I liked the way it felt but when I got to James fire place. I flow out and landed on top of Sirius.

He landed face down and I was laying on this back. James, Remus and Peter were laughing there bums off. I rolled off him and staggered to my feet. I helped up Sirius and we both sat down on the couch.

"Why were you at Sirius place?"

James ask after he stopped laughing.

"I was in London and he let me use his fire place."

Sirius nodded. I asked him not to tell them I was staying with him for the summer.

"So what are we going to do?"

Peter asked. We all looked at James and he smiled. Then we meet his parents then he took us round the house. Showing us the rooms and then the back yard. It was huge and there was a forest back there.

"There is some land here that is for sale."

He told us as we walked throw the forest. I loved it I was giddy. I saw a fox and I took off running after it. I lost my shoes as I ran after the fox. The boys was right behind me one of them picked up my shoes.

As I jumped over a log I phased with out thinking. My clothes ripped as I turned into my wolf side. I was white like the snow. I had my tongue out as I ran. Then I stopped by the river and drank. The boys stopped and panted. Trying to catch there breath. I trotted to them and licked them in the face.

"Eww Mercy stop that. Your getting us wet."

Said James. I yapped at them. Then put my head on Remus lap. He patted my head I closed my eyes and whined softly. Then I went behind some bushes and changed back. I didn't eat so it hurt when I changed back. Clothes slid over my raw skin. It hurt like hell but I didn't make a sound. When I was back to normal I limped out.

"What's wrong Mercy?"

I looked at Remus and smiled.

"When I don't have enough energy. It hurt me when I change or change back. My skin had to re-grow and my bones had to break and go back to the way there are now."

I said as sat next to Sirius. I bit my lower till it bled. Sirius saw the blood but I wiped it away. It started to heal up. Then James got up and pulled off his shirt then jumped into the river. The others did the same. I sat there under the tree watching them.

"Aren't you going to come in Mercy?"

I looked a James. But Remus spoke up.

"She doesn't like the water James. You should remember you were laughing at her. One the first day we went across the lake."

James thought about it. "Oh! Sorry Mercy I forgot." I smiled at me.

"Its ok James. I'm having fun just watching you guys."

We stayed out till the sun was going down. Then we walked back to the huge house. They took hot showers then we went down for dinner. It was so good and that I was hungry I had four helping of everything.

"Wow! My dear I never saw a young women eat so much. And stay so thin."

I smiled at Mrs. Potter.

"Will the food is so good. I cant help my self. And I burn it off fast."

She smiled at me.

"You are from the Family Wolf right?"

Asked Mrs. Potter. I nodded.

"I thought they were all gone? Or went into hiding."

I looked at her.

"They are all dead but me Ma'ma. But if there are any left I do not know."

I said softly. She smiled and nodded. Then after dinner we went to James room and talked and plays games. Then I went to my room and fell asleep.

For the rest of that week we had fun. But it went by to fast. Sirius and I went back to his house for the rest of the summer. But we did owl the rest of them. I got a owl for Remus for his birthday.

The summer went by fast. It was only a week before the next term. So we went to Diagon Alley by floo powder. We got gold out then they went to get books. I went off by my self to get my stuff. After a few hours we meet up and went back to Number Twelve Grimmauld Place.

That night was the full moon and its fun changing with out them knowing. So far they didn't know besides Sirius. His family was very nice to me but they were awful to Sirius. So after dinner I went to my room and locked the door.

Then took off my clothes and changed before the moon came up. So it wouldn't hurt when the moon comes up. I laid on the floor and closed my eyes. I could hear every thing that was going on. Sirius was packing this trunk and Regulus doing something in his room. Soon after that I fell asleep for the whole night. . .
