The Gift From Death

Chapter 8: The Cure

4th, August, 1998...

The men were just chatting about thet last few memories when Ginny and Hermione walked in.

"Mum chucked us out of the kitchen," Ginny explained before sitting down next to Harry, "she said she had more than enough help."

Hermione sat next to Ron.

"Hey Gin? Can I talk to you for a minute?" Harry asked suddenly.

Ginny nodded and they went over to a corner of the room where Harry put a privacy spell around them.

"Whats up Harry?"

"I've been thinking remember what Death said about changing people into Lycans?" she nodded "I think we should ask Remus if he wants to be changed. It is definatley better than being a werewolf and he wont have to suffer like he usually dose. He wont have to worry about being dangerous as well." Harry explained his thoery.

"That would be a brilliant idea, but obviously only if he agrees. We will have to explain that he needs to relax and welcome the virus into his body, though." Ginny agreed, they returned to the group.

"Remus?" Harry asked nervously. Remus looked up from watching Teddy play with his toy wolf. "Me and Ginny were thinking. We think we know a remedy to the werewolf curse." he said slowly.

Remus cocked his head to the side in confusion, "Really?" he asked after a moment.

"Yeah, you see when Death was here just before you guys returned he was explaining something's about our virus that we called Lycan." Ginny explained, "One of the things he told us was that our virus will over rule any illnesses, curse's or dissease's including the werewolf curse." she said.

"The only difference is that with you being a werewolf you would need to relax and welcome the virus otherwise your curse will fight back and it may cause you to lose your human mind forever. What we were thinking was that if you agree you wouldn't have to worry about being dangerous and you wouldn't have to suffer as much." Harry explained.

Remus was silent then looked up at them again, "You would do that for me?" he asked hopefully.

They nodded.

"Your like an uncle to me Remus. Just as much as Sirius has been a godfather to me." Harry replied giving Remus a hug.

"You don't deserve to suffer Remus." Ginny added, "Your too nice. Do you want a bit more information before you decide?"

Remus was quiet for a few minutes then he nodded, "I think it would be a good idea to have all the facts before I decide." he said.

"Well," Harry started, "there's obviously the physical aspects, were stronger," he said flexing his muscles, "were supposed to be faster, but we havent checked that out yet, were also supposed to have better reflexes and senses, that's why I don't need to wear my glasses anymore." he explained.

"Our virus also removes any scars left by the Lycanthropy." Ginny added, "Me and Harry have a soul bond and are classed as 'Life Mates' so if we want to change someone we have to bite them together, we are also very protective of each other apparently we havent been through a full moon yet were just going on Death's information." she explained, "On the full moon it is still a forced transformation but we have our human minds, its also painless apparently, but the wolf is still slightly stronger we will either have to hunt some small animals or find something that would keep a wolf busy or we might become restless and start chewing on things, like the furniature or we may be destructive apparently. Death said we have to read up on natural habits of wolves as some of them are valid but we don't know which ones are or not yet."
