Secrets Beyond

Relations

~General&Y/N's POV.~

"Elizabeth Anneth Larson?" Those words spurt out of Lupin's mouth In a flash after looking at her locket. Elizabeth raised her brows In confusion before caressing her glowing necklace. E&C       Elizabeth never knew what that meant. 

Lupin adverted his eyes when Elizabeth's fingers reached her necklace caressing It and proceeded to adjust his vision towards Fred who had already calmed down. "Weasley? Fred Weasley?"Lupin asked In a croaking voice that slurred In between words. 

"Ah yes sir..."Fred answered In shock looking at his ex-teacher who looked like he drank a whole barrel of butterbeer by himself. 

"Ah...How may I help you-" Lupin was cut off by Elizabeth holding up the book In her hand. "H-how do you know my name..." She stuttered out clenching her necklace. Lupin let out a small sigh and ruffled his hair tiredly and gestured them to enter the shack. 

Elizabeth walked Into the shack and stepped on the creeky woods finally settling down by a corner. "Eli- Uh... Larson, how may I help you?" Lupin asked In a tired voice and let out a sullen smile. 

"Sir Lupin I-I need your help... This book states your name... May I know... What Is your relation with... The Larsons?" Elizabeth's voice volume went quiet, she started to get nervous when Lupin gave off a concerned look.

"Why do you say 'Larsons' as If it was a foreign name to you?" Lupin's tone went low and he sat back fumbling with his coat. 

"Shit...What now-" She mumbled under her breath before Lupin took out a tiny bar of chocolate and offered It to her with the calmest smile. 

"Elizabeth... Pass me the book?" He asked In a calm tone which made Elizabeth's stress melt off and she passed him the book with ease while marking him the particular page which had his name on It. He took out his wand and whispered "Aparecium."  The page sparkled a little and words In pure gold Ink lit up forming a long paragraph that lasted 3 pages. 

"Defensive and attacking spell. Of course, this Is Eliza Larson... Your mother." He spoke In a soft tone and looked at Elizabeth's glassy eyes. "M-m-mum?" She whimpered a little. Those words felt warm on her chest yet It still hurt like needles piercing through skin. Fred grabbed on Elizabeth's shoulder clearly confused with the current situation but held on to the thought and watched her whimper In her own hands.

 "Elizabeth you... Have come... There must be something wrong-?" Lupin asked and gave back the book holding his hands together and leaned closer.  Elizabeth's eyes widened. "Is something going to go wrong...?"She asked rubbing her fingers together and she leaned closer as well. "Please... Something must be wrong... These things that have been happening lately after Mrs.L/N's death just weren't normal." 

 "Y-you came now?" Lupin asked and his brows raised. "Because now, It is affecting Y/N and also her own father sir Lupin. I can't possibly stay still... Please, there must be a reason you were In this book and a fragment of my memories right?" Elizabeth's impatience grew she was practically spitting out everything. 

"Elizabeth dear... Calm down...Look I understand where you are going but we have to Involve Y/N In this as well. I would need to teach her too.". "B-but I- can Protect-" Lupin held out his hand and sighed slowly.

 "That wouldn't be fair, would It. This Is her battle as well."Lupin's expression softened once again and Elizabeth's expression followed along. "Sir...Y/N's mother did not die of Illness did she?" Elizabeth questioned him and Fred's eyes widened as he sat beside Elizabeth already invested In the conversation that was going on. "Elizabeth... What-" 

. "No Sir tell me the truth."She spoke In a sharp tone. Lupin looked down for a minute before laying his head on the wall, wiping his sweat, and grunted. "I-I was the one who brought her home." He turned to the side and Elizabeth faced down."Was she killed..?" Elizabeth asked once more but this time her tone was shaky.
