(A/N): Hey Guys! Another chapter, coming up :) This is part two of the aftermath from the full moon, and Remus's reaction to the events that transpired while he wasn't in control of his body.

Disclaimer: I own nothing you recognize.


Leo

It was only about an hour before Lily found us in the Hospital Wing. Remus wasn't awake yet but I could tell he was close, so I put Lily on the other side of me just in case he had an unexpected reaction to being knocked out while in wolf form.

I could also tell that Lily was curious as to why Remus was still unconscious, whereas he was usually awake by now. It wasn't long anyway before he woke up, gasping and blinking frantically.

He was out of bed before I could stop him, but he didn't go for anyone's throat, instead, he went for the window.

Upon pushing the glass open on it's hinges, he immediately started heaving, and I pitied anyone who might happen to be walking past at this hour.

"Ugh..." He groaned, swaying slightly on his feet, and I was at his side in an instant, keeping him upright.

"C'mon Remmy, back to bed." He nodded weakly, leaning on me heavily and dragging his feet.

"Eeh... What happened?" He questioned, voice slurring with sluggishness, and I bit my lip.

"You made to attack Severus Snape, so James kicked you in the face." I said, keeping my voice down and eyeing the way he was limping. "And Elaine and I have sharp teeth. Sorry." I looked to Elaine, but she was still avoiding my eyes after the mistakes she had made last night.

"I attacked Snape?" He hissed, his tired voice exhibiting no guilt, nor recollection of the event.

"No, James blocked you." Remus's eyebrows furrowed as I helped him back into the bed, and propped him up against some pillows.

"Why was he even out there?" I bit my lip, hesitating to throw a friend under the knight bus.

"Ask Sirius." The aforementioned boy looked very guilty on the other hand, and even though I was currently angry with him, I felt quite bad.

"What- Sirius?" I moved aside, so Remus didn't have to struggle to see him from over my shoulder, and Sirius swallowed thickly now that there was no barrier between them.

"Snape and I got into an argument- I didn't think he'd actually do it, I didn't think he'd be so stupid- I was just so angry, because he was badmouthing you and saying how he was going to get proof and turn you in, so I- I'm so sorry Remus, I'm so sorry- I told him where to find you, and how to get in." By the end of it, his voice was a whisper, and Remus's face was blank.

"Remus?" Peter inquired rather cautiously after a minute, and Remus's eyes snapped back into focus.

"I forgive you." He told Sirius quietly, who let out a breath of relief, immediately grinning.

"Really, Remus? Thank you-" Remus cut him off with a glare, and deathly flat voice.

"No, Sirius. You could have gotten Snape killed, and made me do it. You endangered your friends lives, my life, not to mention the fact that all of us could be expelled, and Dumbledore thrown in Azkaban for putting a dangerous, deadly creature among normal wizarding children. No, Sirius, I don't forgive you, and when I get my strength back, I'm going to give you such a screaming, my spit's going to give you freckles." By this point, Sirius had gone whiter than Remus, whose rage had stained his cheeks a dusky purple, and the rest of us looked on in shock, never having seen Remus so furious.

And maybe it was just me, but even though his voice and expression were both blank, I swear for just a second, I saw the wolf in his eyes.

"Remus-" I tried, but I'll admit, my fear was the thing that cut me off as he started to speak again.

"You know I'm right, Leo." He had been staring straight at Sirius, who now looked on the verge of tears, but his gaze soon swapped to me. "You know better than anyone just how dangerous I can be." And in that second I was terrified, because I didn't know whether it was Remus reminding me he was the wolf, or the wolf reminding me he was Remus. I didn't know whether he was talking about possibly hurting innocents... or possibly hurting me.

"So, I did the only thing I could think of- I shoved him back into the pillows and bared my fangs at him, eyes flashing dark for a second- showing I was ready to fight if it came down to it.

"Shut up Moony, go back to sleep." He didn't seem very amused by this, but the look in my eyes told him I wasn't fucking around, so he laid back and closed his eyes.

"Right, let's go." I said, gripping Elaine and Sirius' arms, gesturing for the others to follow.

"What was all that about?" Elaine whispered to me, having been the only one close enough to see my full display.

"I think his wolf was close enough to the surface to challenge me." I explained, and she blinked.

"What, because he got knocked out in wolf mode, now he's wolf-y all the time?" I shook my head.

"He should come down after a while," I said, a little bit louder, so the others could hear. "In the meantime, I just need to keep him away from Sirius."


(A/N): So, what did you think?

I, personally, like Remus's little tirade, but it actually really scared Leo. Like, he doesn't like seeing people angry, and the fact that he has the memories of being hurt by Remus's wolf form in the past means he's sort of come to associate that hurt with Remus being angry.
