Remus remembered waking up in the hospital wing throwing up and the kind nurse coming to his aid instantly

Remus remembered seeing Sirius's pale face once Sirius saw Remus.

Remus remembered a fight or a disagreement that happened between McGonagall and the little nurse, but Remus didn't remember what they said.

Remus remembered being picked up in McGonagall's arms and very suddenly Remus wasn't at Hogwarts anymore.

Remus was a little boy, five? Six? Four? Remus wasn't sure how old he was but what he remembered he remembered vividly.

There was a woman there, cradling little Remus in her long lanky arms Remus was tugging at the woman's blonde coloured hair. Then she spoke.

"Yes my little one, mumy's here don't worry mummy is here" the woman said through a forced smile she had tears in her eyes.

"Don't cry mum, I'll be fine" the little Remus said, squirming in the woman's arms.

The older Remus then realised with a shock that this was him as a little boy, he would've only been new to the 'werewolf society' and that this woman was his mother he had to have been five. Remus swallowed a sob in the back of his throat, he didn't even realise had built up; he never knew that his mother was this kind.

No, Remus told himself. she left me, this can't be her.

"Indeed you will, you're my big boy" the woman said, while giving little Remus a tight squeeze hug. "I'll be back in the morning, then we can play chess and cards all you want" Remus's mum said, not hearing or blinking an eye in the older Remus's direction.

A curule male voice cut in right then.

"Hope! Get away from that thing before it bites you and turns you into one of 'its kind'!''Both the older and younger Remus shrink away from the door, that's where the curle voice comes in. the woman, Hope, on the other hand yelled back at the voice.

"Lyall! Don't you dare speak about our son like that! He isn't a monster." The desperate shouts of Hope faded into the back as Remus lost the tight grip he had on that flash back. Remus was all too soon back in the present time again and not his flashback.

Remus then remembered waking up in a new bed, but that wasn't all. Remus was in another whole entire building, there was also a woman sitting next to Remus chewing on her lip and nails nervously.

Remus sat up very quickly and proceeded to look around the room and noticed only a single exit which led into a white hallway with very few decorations and other rooms, that was all Remus could see from his bed. The woman sitting beside Remus's bed seemed to only just notice that he was in fact awake and she lurched herself onto him and wrapped him in a massive hug.

"Remus! Oh my boy, how I've missed you!" The woman touched his face in a very motherly fashion and with a small inaudible gasp Remus realised that this woman was his mum, Hope.

"Mother?" Remus asked the woman tentatively.

"Yes my dear, that is me" the woman squeezed him harder, Remus successfully squirmed away from her.

Who does this woman think she is!? She left me alone, no. she abandoned me, hasn't spoken to me once, not a letter, nothing at all. And she thinks she can just fucking waltz in here and act like that shit never happened!?" Remus thought to himself. Before he voiced it.

"How fucking dare you! Who the fuck do you think you are!? Like acutally you fucking left me! You didn't leave me, you bloody abandoned me when I was five! I WAS FIVE! AND I GOT ABANDONED BY YOU AND YOUR HUSBAND!! HOW DARE YOU SHOW YOUR FUCKING FACE HERE! You put me in a home for abandoned and unwanted children and got the fuck out of my life! You never bloody visited me! You never wrote to me! You did the grand total of abousletly fucking nothing! Well done! Do you really think i'm just going to let you waltz in here when i'm sick and fucking hug me!? As if you've always been here, because i have a news fucking flash for you Hope! I WON'T! I won't let you act like nothing happened because shit did happen! And you were never ever there for me so just fuck the hell off you bitch!" Remus screamed at Hope, not caring who heard him he needed to get out his anger and he had lots more to burn, when hope hadn't moved Remus stood up and walked over to Hope.
