As the Hogwart express continues its way towards Hogwarts the four trouble makers have been discussing their plans for Hogsmeade, The conversation starts to die down so James is finally able to ask the group a burning question of his, "Do you think Lils will go on a date with me to Hogsmeade?"

Sirius Looks to James with a smirk, "Of course mate, why wouldn't she?"

Peter mumbles in agreement before he stuffs his face with cake.

"Remy, who would you go with?" asks Siri.

Ramona hums in annoyance and has a bite of chocolate, "No one Siri, I am a determined bachelorette for life."

Sirius groans and slaps his forehead, "You're a buzzkill. If, you know, If. If you could who would you want to take?"

Ramona refuses to answer so Sirius has a guessing game with James interfing with his point of view of who will suit best.

Peter stops flicking through his book to include his opinion, "There is no point to this, for Ramona can't go to Hogsmeade with who she wishes for he is already taken."

Ramona snorts at Peter, "Please enlighten me Pete."

Peter sighs, "Lucius."

Ramona blushes. Peter giggles, "Yes Remy you're kind of obvious. I think even he realises it."

Merlin. "Well, he is finishing this year and I am glad." counters Ramona.

Sirius bursts out laughing, "Yes and the idiot didn't even make head boy. Since it's his last year we have to prank him for all it's worth."

Ramona nods in agreement. Peter Laughs at Ramona, "You just want to see him sneer, don't you Remy?"

After the four laugh, Ramona successfully throws an every flavour bean at Peter's forehead.

As Ramona is walking towards the food hall for the Samhain feast, Severus corners Ramona.

"Stop this nonsense towards Malfoy, what has he ever done to cause you to gang up on him like that?"

Ramona can't help but laugh, "Malfoy is hardly a damsel that needs you look out for him."

Severus sneers in malice and stalks away. Ramona shakes her head a little annoyed at herself, why do I find sneers so attractive?

The Friday before Ramona's birthday, which is the 10th of March that Sunday. Ramona's friends try to distract her from the full moon that is to take place later that night. Ramona tenses when she sees her father's owl drop a letter attached to a parcel.

"Siri, can, can you read it for me?"

Sirius eyes Ramona curiously and opens it to read, after reading the note he is more confused as to why Ramona wanted the note being read. Sirius passes the note and mumbles, 'It's fine, but we're talking about this later.'

Dear Ramona.

Happy Birthday for Sunday. Good luck for tonight.

Mum

Ramona breathes a sigh in relief, after her almost attack on her father Ramona can't handle conversing with her father. Ramona has decided to continue to practice duelling with her friends. Ramona focuses so much on duelling in order to take care of herself when she leave Hogwarts. As soon as she finishes Hogwarts she plans to leave home and never go back to live. Ramona feels she has inconvenienced her parents enough.

Movement distracts the wolf and the wolf snaps her teeth viciously. The door opens completely and the Wolf howls and snaps .. located in the doorway is a large animal. The Wolf howls and snaps angrily at the creature that dares to disturb her. The animal bows their head lowly in submission. The Wolf sniffs, Wolf? Competition? Threat? Food?

Not sure of which the Wolf growls angrily for the creature to back off. The creature whines and rolls on their back to be even less threateningly. The Wolf stalks slowly forward and sniffs the air around the creature. Scared? Padfoot .. friend.

The Wolf takes another sniff and that's when the wolf smells .. TREES. The Wolf jumps over the laying Padfoot and runs through the tunnel with the goal to get to the trees.

With snap of the teeth the wolf runs through the trees free for the first time. Free to run. FREE. The wolf looks to the moon and howls. The Wolf decides to continue running and howling. After running freely the wolf notices the Padfoot joining. Friend, games, fun.

With a slight growl to challenge friend, the wolf races forward with the Padfoot running alongside trying to catch up.

With a slight headache Ramona sits up and realises she is in the bed in her shack but next to her is a big furry dog. Ramona hasity gets out of the bed to get away from this unknown creature. Ramona gets her wand and aims forward to protect. The dog on the bed sits up and wags his tail and barks happily.

"Padfoot! You're real," says Ramona and laughs, Ramona pats her leg, "Come here boy."

The dog makes a sound that sounds like a laugh. The dog jumps off the bed and runs towards Ramona and places his front paws on Ramona's shoulder.

"Aw, good boy."

Ramona scratches Padfoot behind the ear. The dog starts to shimmer and changes rapidly into Sirius.
