WOLFSBANE. IT WAS WOLFSBANE. There was no doubt about that. Her heart was beating frantically as she felt her forehead break out in a sweat. Elodies eyes then were fixed on the moon outside.

He has a goblet of wolfsbane clearly for Remus. On what used to be his desk. With a note to drink it. And the moon is almost full. That could only mean one thing…

She then panicked. Without thinking, she frantically sneaks out of the castle. Instantly heading to the shrieking shack. Trying her hardest to avoid getting caught.

She eventually finds her way into the shack. She can hear people talking. Though none of them sound like Remus. And Elodie hides near the bed, listening to the conversation.

"Harry! Be quiet!"

"HE KILLED MY MUM AND DAD!"

She hears… Hermione Granger and Harry Potter? What are they doing here? It's dangerous. There's another man talking. Though she can't quite tell who it is.

If he's not here? Where the bloody hell is Remus? I have to see what's going on. She moves over and gets a glimpse of who's in the room.

She sees an injured Ron Weasley on the ground next to Harry Potter and Hermione Granger. And she can't tell who the other guy is. Though he's wearing a prison outfit. Suddenly, Elodie's eyes widened. SIRIUS BLACK! What she did know is that she said that out loud. Then Sirius Black turns around. Looking directly at her.

"Now, who are you?" He says before sighing, "It doesn't matter. Come up here."

She nods while shaking. She's terrified. Though everyone whispered about him throughout the year. She's seeing him in person right now. Elodie quickly runs past him over to where the other three are. All four of them look at each other for a moment before looking back at him.

Then Harry was just raising his wand, She saw his eyes showing uncertainty, and there was no movement for a few moments until there was a noise downstairs.

In less than a second, Hermione and Elodie shared a silent look before they started screaming at the top of their lungs, "WE'RE UP HERE! WE'RE UP HERE – SIRIUS BLACK – QUICK!"

Sirius Black seemed startled by their screaming. The door of the room burst open in a shower of red sparks, and Harry turned his back on Sirius to face the new entrant. To Elodie's shock, it was Remus, his face bloodless, his wand raised and ready.

His eyes flickered over to Ron lying on the floor, then Hermione near the door, then to Harry, who still had his wand aimed at Sirius. Then to Sirius. Then to Elodie is sitting next to Hermione. As he looks at her, his eyes gain a feral quality, seemingly worried and angry at the same time. He didn't even look away before yelling, "Expelliarmus!"

It was successful and managed to take away not only Harry's wand but also Hermione's from their respectful owners. Remus caught them before moving into the room, turning to stare directly at Sirius Black, not able to meet Sirius' eyes.
