With Ramona's non stop chatter and stumbling of words it isn't long for James to realise that Ramona not only woke him late at night but is also drunk. He tries to be patient and not to belittle her for over drinking. James barely understands the incoherent rant but realises Ramona just needs someone to be there. After a while Ramona stops her non stop talk to demand for chocolate.

After James returns with chocolate Ramona quickly has a few bites of chocolate, "So you see it's pointless to find a cure, to get rid of it means to kill a part of me literally. I've had Moony in my head since I was four and ... Moony wants to live. To be cured means to murder her and well I'd rather ..."

Only kill in defense.

"My life is so screwed up."

James laughs, "You're telling me! Your life is like a drama sit com." James groans, "I've been watching too much television. Lily insists. Muggle technology is rather cool though! Don't know why the magical world can't learn from them. They're not all ... war loving apes. I swear a lot them are just like us but with no magic."

Ramona laughs, "Maybe ... all I know is my mum hated them. For every 'good one' there's 'ten bad' according to my mum. It's the reason she never really left home. She was a bit of a conspiracy theorist. Thinking the government controlling the people via religion and the media ..." Ramona sighs, "You know, maybe she had a point. She never saw my dad as ... human. It's one of the reason she loved him."

James eyes widen in realisation, "I always thought you had self hatred due from how certain Wizard and Witches treated Werewolves, it's a learnt trait also from your mum too."

Ramona smirks, "Perhaps, Merlin I miss her ... I mean I miss the her before I was changed. In the end she was at least trying to make it up to me."

Ramona digs in her pocket and shakes her firewhisky bottle, "Want some?"


Slowly and surely they will succeed in getting you if you're not careful.

Well it seems Sirius's prediction was right. Ramona is magically tied with chains around her wrists behind her back.

Ramona sighs and magically tries to remove the chains, with no success. The chains sensing danger tightens even more around Ramona's wrists. To Ramona the chains seem to be alive.

Light floods the room and Ramona hear foot steps.

Lucius enters but doesn't look happy about what is happening. Lucius magically creates a chair, he takes a seat.

"I need your help."

Ramona sneers,"Why the theatrics Lucius? Treat all your employees like this or am I a special case?"

"I DON'T like taking chances with Wolves tempers. I need your help BUT it's extremely difficult for me to trust you when Dumbledore holds your status as a Werewolf against you. Dumbledore has forced loyalties from you."

Ramona starts growling in anger, "What do you want!"

Lucius is slightly alarmed seeing Ramona's eyes flicker yellow. Ramona pushes her magic to kill the chains. Avada Kedavra going through her mind as she holds the chains. The chains snap apart.

Moony's claws come out and she rushes at Lucius and has a hard grip around his throat.

"Wait," moans Lucius, "Don't kill me! I really need your help. HE wants Severus. He wants him DEAD."

With Ramona's free left hand she quickly gets Lucius's wand and points it towards his gut.

"What do you expect me to do? Why are you relying on me to help you. That doesn't make any sense," sneers Ramona in reply.

Lucius tries to look calm but his eyes show his fear, "I can't help. He has been marked a traitor. I don't wish to be marked as one too. I need an outsider. You care if he dies, don't you?"

Of cause Ramona's cares but this could be a ploy so she has to play unemotional, "Not so much no, he was a pest at Hogwarts and still is."

Lucius has the gall to laugh, "I see right through you. All I ask is to pass on a message, I have a letter that needs to be given."

Ramona growls menacingly, "You could have asked this without the theatrics. Give me the letter and my wand and let me go, NOW."

Ramona turns Lucius and pushes him towards the stairs, pointing Lucius's wand in his back. Lucius quickly leads Ramona out of the gate of the manor and hands over Ramona's wand and letter.

Before Ramona decides to give Lucius's wand back she pockets the letter.

"I will be dealing with Miss Greyback only, with regards to our working relationship. THAT is OVER."

Lucius smirks, actually relieved, "You really aren't working for Dumbledore. Good to know. Don't be so hasty. I had to be sure your loyalties weren't with Dumbledore."

"NEVER test me again, OR I'll kill you."


Dumbledore runs his fingers through his beard in thought, "So what your saying is ..."

"Don't put words in my mouth. Lucius's loyalties isn't as strong as they think. Lucius values certain people. There is a mole, Lucius and most likely IT knew information they shouldn't have."

Dumbledore eyes narrow in confusion, "Potter's wedding?"

Ramona nods sharply.


Where is the love?
