Peter.

Remus had grabbed him before the medics could even get to Sirius, his hands clasped around his shirt and he threw him down, "I thought you fucking checked the tires!" He seethed, his fist connecting with his face, "You had one fucking job!"

A sickening crack was heard, and Peter cried out in pain, "Mate!" He choked on the blood gushing out of his nose, "Stop! Please!" His pleads fell on deaf ears, Remus was in a rage unlike no other, he had asked him to check the tires, and he lied.

His lie may of cost Sirius his life, and for some reason he couldn't bring himself to walk over to the wreck just yet, this was working out just fine.

He slammed his knuckles down again, he could feel the skin split beneath his, with each throw his hand grew more slippery, the blood staining his fingers red. "You better fucking pray he's alive, because if not you'll join the coffin with him." He spat, grabbing his neck with both hands as the boy underneath him gasped uncontrollably.

Remus felt tugs all over him as the workers surrounded them both, the whole entire place was in disarray, whatever was going on outside of the bubble he's just created didn't matter, Peter was to blame. "Get off him Lupin!" The voices yelled down his ear, trying to force him backwards. Like fuck that was happening.

"Fucks sake! Someone get him off the lad!" A new wave of hands had now appeared on his body, pulling even harder and managing to throw him onto his back. "Someone call a fucking ambulance!" Another shout, the chaos had started to sink in and Remus was becoming acutely aware of everything that was happening around him. "We fucking can't! Get everyone out!"

Can't?

Can't?

He stood up swiftly, wiping his fists on his stained jumpsuit, turning towards the man who spoke last, "Where the fuck is Sirius?" He asked in fury, looking over him. "He's over there, don't bloody start on me! I've done nothing!" He said, putting his hands up and stepping back, pointing to a group of men carrying a stretcher towards a random car,"Look, there."

Remus glanced back at Peter, who was still on the floor surrounded by pools of his fluid, "I'll kill you fucker, you're a dead man walking." He promises, before heading off to where Sirius was.

Before getting to Sirius, he had to walk past the car that was mangled with blood, glass was sent flying across the floor around him and the bonnet which he spent so long working on was crushed in on itself.

He couldn't picture what Sirius had felt when the collision happened, it had only been a good five minutes, and people were still bustling around, the shock of the crash passing as everyone realised what had happened.

He had been put in the back of a Jeep, lying across the back seats as a few guys stood around the car asking what to do next. "What the fuck are you waiting for? Get him to the hospital." Remus growled, shoving past them to look at Sirius.

His face was painted red, purple and blue splotches of colour dotted amongst the bare skin. His eyes were closed gently, long eyelashes brushing against his sharp cheek. The breaths coming out of the boy were ragged, showcasing the fear he likely felt before passing out.

His heart ached with guilt, he should of checked the tires too, he was as much to blame as Peter was. He could spot the lifted piece of shirt he wore, his shoulder was bent at an odd angle and Remus had to swallow down his bile. One of the men replied back warily, "And say what mate? We were all illegally racing? I'm not fucking going to jail."

"Jail?" Remus hissed, "He could die and you're worried about Jail?" The group of guys had backed up a little bit, just now noticing his body splotched with blood. He looks around in disgust, before reaching his hand out, "Give me the fucking keys and I'll take him."

They wasted no time handing them over to him, all of them looking at each other shamefully. Selfish fucks.

He got in before anyone else spoke, slamming the door of the stupid fucking car and putting it in drive, wanting to get out of the shit-hole as soon as possible.

Straight after he was on the road to the hospital, he checked the rear-view mirror to see how Sirius was getting on in the back. His body slung across the seats in what looked to be an uncomfortable position, his eyes were still shut and Remus didn't realise how much he'd miss seeing his blue eyes looking at him mischievously. "Like fuck you're getting out of the speech i'm giving you for this." He mumbled angrily, stepping on the gas.

The nurses were quick to rush out as soon as he parked in the ambulance bay, he ignored all questions and focused on keeping the boy in his sight. Shoving past a few people on the way.

"Sir, what happened? Can you tell us what caused this?" An annoying voice squeaked down his ear, trailing behind him as he kept up with the medical bed.

He spoke quickly, "Car crash." The lights in this hospital were too fucking bright. "Hit a wall."

"A wall?" She gasped, "Do you need any medical attention too?" Her hands gestures towards his face, "Were you burned?"

Now she was pissing him off. "It's a fucking scar, who are you again? I'm trying to follow my friend if you don't fucking mind." The woman looked embarrassed and nodded, "Apologies sir I didn't mean to offend you."

Remus scoffed, paying no attention to her and watching as Sirius was dragged into a closed off room, a scrubbed up doctor walked over and stood in front of the door, "You're going to need to wait here for awhile, we have a waiting room and vending machines just there."

"Right," He said, "Okay, I'll make a few calls.". The doctor nodded in understanding, and walked off, leaving him alone. The first thing he did was pull out his phone, a few missed calls by his boss, and multiple text messages from Pete.

Scrolling past them, the one that caught his eye was a bright white news article.

ʙʟᴀᴄᴋ ʙʀᴏᴛʜᴇʀꜱ ʜᴏꜱᴘɪᴛᴀʟɪꜱᴇᴅ & ᴋɪᴅɴᴀᴘᴘᴇᴅ ɪɴ ꜱᴜꜱᴘᴇᴄᴛᴇᴅ ɢᴀɴɢ ᴀᴛᴛᴀᴄᴋ.

Kidnapped? Remus clicked on the report from Lily Evans, his fingers shaking slightly as he brought them back down.

During the afternoon both Black brothers became victims of a serious gang attack. Sirius Black is reported to be hospitalised with major injuries, while Regulus Black has been labelled as kidnapped from sightings of armed gang members by multiple witnesses.

"Shit," He switched off his phone and shoved it into his pockets, pinching the bridge of his nose and breathing out sharply.

How the fuck did this happen?
