You Have... The Werewolf (Harry Potter Fanfic)

34

Remus stared dumbfounded as he watched Tonks make her way towards him, her eyes filled with shocked and in disbelief. He was stunned with the sight of her being there just as much as she was surprised to see him there. He didn't understand how she could even have known how to find him. 

"Tonks, what are you doing here? And for that matter, how did you get here?" Remus asked her as she rushed over and wrapped her arms around him and hugged him. 

"I was so worried! You just vanished out of thin air! And no one would tell me where you were or what was going on. I finally got some clue from this letter that mysteriously came saying to come to the forest and ask for Fenrir's pack." Tonks explained as she lightly cupped his face in her hands, "Even Sirius tried to stop me." 

"Sirius? He's here?" Remus asked while glancing up over to the crowd. It wasn't hard to find Sirius among the crowd. He was busying himself with touching some of the more muscular men's arms. Remus rolled his eyes. 

"Sirius! Stop touching those men's arms!" Remus ordered. Sirius jolted then made his way towards the center with everyone. 

"I tried to stop her, I swear." Sirius claimed. Remus pushed some of his hair from his face. 

"Remus, what's going on? Why are you here in Fenrir's pack? Why is Hermione here too?" Tonks asked, noticing Hermione, who was confused at what was going on. Of course, Hermione was. Hermione didn't know he was engaged with Tonks. Remus wasn't sure what was going on. How could Tonks have figured out about him being here? Who could have given Tonks the information? 

It then clicked. Scabior. Scabior had somehow gotten information on Tonks then he set up Tonks with that letter so she could find him and then make it difficult for him to do the ritual.  That was what Scabior was coming out of the forest and smirking about. He had plenty of time to do so since Fenrir had moved the tasks back a bit so he and Hermione could go on a date. Remus groaned as he lightly patted his hands on Tonks' shoulders. 

"I'll explain it a bit later. When we are in a more private setting... SIRIUS! Stop touching Scabior's hair!" Remus shot at Sirius. Sirius removed his hand that had been petting Scabior's hair, which Scabior jolted to the side when he realized that Sirius had been petting him. 

"Sorry, it's just so soft! I can never get mine that soft and I have used all sorts of shampoos." Sirius claimed before he scurried off. Remus rolled his eyes again. 

"Do you know who sent you the letter?" Remus asked, eyeing Scabior. Scabior stuck his tongue out at him.

"Not really. Now what's going on?" Tonks asked, staring in disbelief. 

"We'll talk later. Now are you sure you don't know who sent you that letter?" Remus asked again. 

"What are you trying to say, Runt?" Scabior asked. Remus turned, keeping his glare on him. 

"I'm sure that you already know. I bet you had something to do with this!" Remus shot at Scabior. 

"Maybe I did and maybe I didn't. It's not against the rules, Runt." Scabior stated, crossing his arms over his chest. 

"Scabior does have a point. Inviting people to view the tasks is not against the... what are you doing?" Fenrir suddenly stopped as he glanced down to see Sirius was now patting his hands against Fenrir's chest. 

"Bloody Hell! You could cut diamonds with these." Sirius stated, still patting his hands against Fenrir's chest. Remus groaned as he stormed over and grabbed Sirius by the ear and began to drag Sirius behind him as Tonks walked alongside him. Remus took a last look over his shoulders to see Hermione standing there in confusion and Scabior standing behind her with a sly smirk crawling over his lips.
