Teddy P.O.V

Teddy was staying at the Tree Brookmsticks the week leading up to his departure to Hogwarts. There he meet up with Harry. Dumbledore had wanted him to stay there too. It was also because Harry had blown up his Aunt.

Teddy though that was awesome. He wanted to learn how to blow up people too. He and Harry decided that they would try and make or figure out a spell that does that to people. It would be fun.

One day to go until they leave for Hogwarts and the Weasly family arrived at the Three Broomsticks too. They were all chatting happily. Molly and Arther keep shooting nervous glances at Harry and Teddy. Teddy shrugged it off as nothing. 

His hair flashed bright colors as he laughed at the twins' jokes. 

Then Ginny leaned over the table and started suggesting colors for Teddy to turn his hair.

Pink

Orange

Yellow

Green

White

Black

When Teddy's hair was black and shaggy, Molly started to glare at him.

"Wait a minute!" Fred protested "You look familiar now, black hair, grey eyes, you look like Sirius Black!"

"Who?" Teddy asked.

Harry also looked confused "The man they keep talking about on the Muggle telly?"

"Yeah, he's a wizard," George said "Escaped from Azkaban, the most secure wizarding prison. He's mental."

Teddy immediately changed his hair back to messy short blue.

"Fred, George!" Molly scolded. She gave Arther a pointed look.

"That's quite enough boys," He said "Teddy, Harry, if you would follow me please." Arther walked to the very back of the tavern. To a corner where no one sat and no one would be able to hear them.

"Sit down boys," He said.

Confused, Harry and Teddy sat.

"Sirius Black is a very dangous criminal. I don't want you trying to capture him or go looking. He has no regard for human life but for his own. He is one of You-Know-Who's most loyal followers."

"Why would we-" Harry started.

"You two seek or attract trouble like a bee to honey. I need you both to be very careful this year. Until he is captured. He is going to want to kill you both." Arther continued seriously.

"Why would he be after us?" Asked Teddy.

"Sirius Black is extremely loyal to You-Know-Who. And he wants to avenge the people who foil his plans. Just be very careful. Please."

Harry and Teddy nodded and swore they would. Then they walked back to the dinner table, not quite sure what to make out of the weird conversation.

The next morning everyone was packed and loaded into the cars the Ministry had provided. On their way to King's Cross Station.


Remus P.O.V

Remus had arrived at King's Cross station very early. Almost no one was there. Good. He boarded the train, going all the way to the back automatically. He sat down in a compartment. He caught his breath. It was their compartment. The Marauders. If you looked closely enough you could see Moony, Wormtail, Padfoot and Prongs carved into the shelf on top. 

Remus smiled sadly at the memory. He missed his friends every day.

He sat at his spot near the window and closed his eyes to sleep. It had been a rough full moon, he needed sleep.

As he drifted off into sleep his head was filled with the memories of the good times of pranking and laughter and trust.


Teddy P.O.V

They slipped on the train just in time. They were late so it was difficult to find a compartment that was empty. None of them were empty. They came upon the last compartment which had a sleeping man, they couldn't see his face.

"Who do you reckon he is?" Asked Ron, sitting down.

"Professer R. J. Lupin." Hermione answered confidently.

"Bloody Hell,  how does she know this stuff??" Ron demanded to Harry.

Harry shrugged. 

"Oh, please, Ronald, it on his case." Hermione said exasperated.

"Oh. Right."

"Do you think we'll wake him?" Teddy asked nervously. He didn't want to get in trouble with a new teacher. And besides, this man looked like he needed every wink of sleep he could get.

"No, he looks pretty deeply asleep." Hermione said.

They sat down and the train started to move.

The talked of Sirius Black and Azkaban and of school and everything. Then the train screeched to a stop. 

And with a weak flicker of lights they plunged into darkness.
