Before Remus could say anything else though, Sirius interrupted him once more, "Pettigrew is alive, and he's right there!" He revealed pointing towards Ron, "Me?! He's mental!" Ron exclaimed in shock and fear, Sirius sighed in annoyance and looked at you as if asking you to explain what he meant, "Not you Ron, your rat" You said as gently as you could, knowing that he obviously won't take the news very well. "Scabbers has been in my family for-" But Ron was cut of by you, "12 years, the twins told me, and in my opinion that's a curiously long life for a common garden rat" You raised an eyebrow at Ron and Sirius continued, "He's missing a toe isn't he?" He asked, "So what?" You sighed at Ron's question, you opened your mouth about to answer but Harry interrupted you, "All they could find of Pettigrew was his f-" Sirius cut him off, "Finger! He cut it off so everyone would think he was dead! And then he transformed into a rat!" He exclaimed loudly, "Show me" Harry ordered still pointing his wand at Sirius. Sirius surged forward trying to grab Scabbers out of Ron's hands but Ron resisted, "Give it to him Ron" Harry said, "What are you going to do to him?" Ron questioned worriedly still trying to resist but failed as Sirius took the rat by its neck, "Scabbers!" He exclaimed, "Leave him alone!" You sighed and quickly took your wand out of your pocket pointing it at the rat, "Get off him, what are you doing?" You shot Ron a glare, "Shut it Ronald, will you?" You asked as you started shooting a specific spell at the rat but managed to barely miss it every time, Remus, Sirius and yourself kept shooting the spell until you finally managed to hit him, turning the rat into a man with dirty ripped clothes, disgusting yellow fingernails and giant front teeth, Sirius pulled him towards the three of you and you tried your best not gag...he looked and smelled absolutely disgusting. Pettigrew looked up locking eyes with Sirius and Remus, "Remus? Sirius...My old friends!" He tried running towars the door but they stopped him, pushing him back to where he was standing previously, the man turned around with wide eyes and he spotted your brother, "Harry, look at you, you look so much like your father...like James, we were the best of friends-" Pettigrew was cut off by Sirius grabbing him and pulling him backwards, "How dare you speak to Harry... How dare you talk about James infront of him!" Sirius exclaimed chasing him behind the piano, "You sold James and Lily, my parents, to Voldemort didn't you?" You asked him pointing your wand at him, he wimpered, "I didn't mean to, the dark lord...you have no idea the weapons he possesses, ask yourself Sirius, what would you have done? What would you have done?" The man questioned anxiously.

"I would have died! I would have died rather than betray my friends!" Sirius said. Pettigrew crawled under the piano and headed towards the door where you quickly blocked his path, he came up to you with a panicked look on his face. "(Y/n), James wouldn't have wanted me killed! Your dad... your dad would have spared me! He would've shown me mercy...!" He exclaimed as he gripped your shoulders and you scrunched up your nose in disgust, Sirius and Remus came forward yanking Pettigrew away from you, "You should've realized, Peter, that if Voldemort didn't kill you, then we would!" He said as both him and Remus pointed their wands at him, "Together!" But Harry stopped them, "No!" He shouted from beside you. "Harry..." Remus said, "This man is-" He was cut off once again by your brother, "I know what he is, but we'll take him to the castle" He said and you smirked realising what he meant, but clearly Pettigrew didn't and went on his knees in front of Harry, "Bless you boy! Bless you!" He said grabbing Harry's feet, "Get off!" Your brother exclaimed and you crouched down infront of Pettigrew, "He said we'll take you to the castle, after that the Dementors can have you" You said and he shivered in fear bringing his ugly nails to his mouth.

You were now heading down the steps of the passage out of the Womping Willow, Harry and Sirius supporting Ron as you helped Remus keep Pettigrew from running off, Hermione walked behind your brother. You heard Sirius speaking to Harry and Ron but wasn't really paying attention to the conversation, you only heard Ron exclaim, "You almost tore my leg off!" But didn't hear anything before and after that as you were to busy keeping Pettigrew from running. You exited the Womping Willow a bit after the others, seeing Harry and Sirius talking a bit further away and Hermione sat with Ron under the tree. You let go of Pettigrew knowing Remus would be able to handle him and sat down by Hermione, "You alright Ron?" you asked and he shook his head, "I'm afraid that my leg will have to be chopped off" He whined, "Now don't be silly Ronald, if madame Pomfrey could fix missing bones she'll be able to fix that" You said sharing and amused glance with Hermione, Pettigrew tried to bargain with Hermione and Ron to help him but they just ignored him. You stood and faced the sky seeing the full moon peek out behind the clouds causing you to gasp. Hermione also noticed quickly joining you, "Harry!" She exclaimed, drawing the attention of Sirius and Harry as she pointed to the full moon, Sirius ran forward as you pulled Hermione towards you and moved towards Ron standing infront of them protectively, "He forgot to take his potion" You muttered as you looked at Remus who was gradually starting to transform into a Werewolf which caused you to wince at how painful it seemed and most likely was. Sirius helplessly tried to remind him about who he truly was, but you knew very well that it was all in vain. Remus dropped his wand and Pettigrew noticed, he picked it up and preformed the spell just as Harry shouted the disarming spell but it was too late, Pettigrew slowly started morphing into a rat before scampering off and out of sight. Remus groaned in pain as he continued to transform, his clothes ripping off his now large body, his face elongating into that off a wolf as he finally ripped free from Sirius' grasp, now in full form. He was hunched over and whining like a sad puppy which caused Hermione to pitty him, you started guiding the kids away but Hermione stopped you, "Wait" She said and went up to Remus, "Hermione get back here!" You ordered sternly but she kept walking. "Professor?" She asked and the werewolf looked up at her, "Professor Lupin." She said softly but Remus wasn't in the mind of the bloodthirsty werewolf. He howled loudly and Hermione jumped back quickly hiding behind you again as he started heading towards the four of you. Just then professor Snape came out of the Tree, his eyes trained on Harry, "There you are, Potter" He said before noticing the werewolf and quickly shielding the three younger wizards with his body, Remus swung his paw, one of his nails making a large scar on your arm and you yelped, crumbling to the ground in pain. Blood flowed out of your arm in large amounts and your vision became blurred before everything went black and your face hit the ground with a thud.
