JULY 25, 1977


THE NIGHT SKY WAS SO CLEAR you could see the stars shining brightly, the air had cooled down a lot and Ara was thankful to have finally arrived at the Potter Manor. Sirius had taken his motorcycle to rescue her from the Black household, what he didn't know was that his sister was too weak to hold onto him, so they had to take the muggle transportation to come home safely.

It had been in the middle of the night, what time exactly, Ara couldn't tell but she guessed it was around three am. She hoped the Potters weren't mad at her for disturbing them this late. It was the opposite.

After Sirius had received the letter, he quickly woke up James and told him he had to get his siblings. He was so in a rush, he completely forgot to put on a jacket, just grabbed his wand and then he was out of the door. At first, James thought he was dreaming and pinched himself to wake up, but once he realized this was actually happening, he clipped on the lamp and put his glasses on. He had ran down the stairs, hoping he could help his brother somehow, but Sirius was already gone.

Euphemia and Fleamont Potter were awoken from the door slamming shut and someone making noises. They thought burglars broke into their house and with their wands in their hands they were ready to defend themselves as they were walking downstairs only to find their son James pacing around in the kitchen.

"Son, what are you doing up ? Merlins beard, it's 1:20 in the morning."

"Is everything alright ?", his mother had seen the concerned expression on her sons face.

"No, something happened at Sirius's house. He went to get his siblings."

"Where is he now ? I will go and help him. Merlin knows what Walburga and Orion will do to them", Fleamont Potter was already halfway out of the door. He would do everything to protect Sirius, after all he was his son too.

"I don't know. He's been gone for ten minutes and I don't know where they live. Padfoot said he'll be back soon."

For a short time it was quiet, Fleamont was stewing over trying to find something he could do to help as Euphemia told her son to sit down, she would make him a hot chocolate, maybe it would calm him down a bit.
