June 1994

Sirius stared with part arrogance part fear at the unconscious form of Severus Snape.

Blueberry was not going to be happy about that...

Damn Bond.

"Tell me about Pettigrew!" Harry shouted at them.

His godson had a wand pointed straight at them.

Sirius was saddened it all had to end up this way. It was never supposed to be like this.

He, Remus, James, Lily, Mason, they should have all been living peacefully in their own homes. Annoying the piss out of James and Lily by barging into their home every other hour. Spoiling the snot out of Harry, and teaching him about Hogwarts, and magic, and girls.

Maybe his Blueberry would have broken Mooney down by now, and he'd be happily working for one of her companies. He and Mason would still be visiting clubs in Muggle America, living life to its fullest extent.

Hell, maybe Blueberry would have gotten all the boys to be civil with Snape by this point.

He doubts it.

But maybe.

"Show me." Harry demanded.

Sirius watched as Remus went to grab Peter out of the redheads hand.

Sirius tried to shrink in on himself when he heard her yell as she approached.

"What the absolute fuckery is going on in here?!"


There she stood in the doorway.

His little Blueberry with the worst look of accusation on her face.

"Miss Night-!" The girl shouted

Harry suddenly whirled the wand in his hand towards the woman.

Sirius jumped and placed himself between the two.

"Holy Helga! The fuck did I walk into?"

"Masondrit.... I can explain..." Mooney started.

His Blueberry looked from the wand in Harry's hand still pointed at them, to Remus, then over towards the slumped form of Snape.

"Yeah... no need really. I'm just here for that lump over there." She said pointing to Snape "who knocked him out of his boots?"

All eyes subtly glanced at the others around them, unsure whether they should tell her or not.

"Eh no matter, good job though! Hard to get the drop on him... I felt that one..." she said to the room.

Sirius noted Remus reflected the same awkward guilty grimace on his own face, while the children just looked upon the adults confused.
