A Final Song for Sirius

Chapter 1

Orion Black reclined in the living room of Black's Manor, enjoying a rare moment of peace. The classical music that filled the room was a soothing backdrop to his afternoon, offering a brief escape from the daily whirlwind of family life. His wife, Walburga, was quietly reading a book in her favorite armchair, allowing the gentle strains of Mozart to mingle with the comforting crackle of the fireplace.

The serenity of the room was suddenly disrupted when Sirius and Regulus entered, full of youthful energy and mischief. Sirius, always one to embrace spontaneity, sauntered over to his father’s phone resting on a nearby table and, with a mischievous grin, began scrolling through the music library.

Before anyone could react, Sirius hit play on a song by Ice Peak titled "Terrorist," its sharp beats and intense rhythm filling the room. Sirius, clearly excited by his choice, began to sing along, his voice surprisingly sharp and clean. Walburga, who had been half-listening, looked up in shock, her attention caught by the unexpected quality of her son’s voice.

Regulus, never one to miss an opportunity to join in, immediately followed his brother’s lead. He launched into the Russian version of the song with impressive fluency, his rich tones harmonizing with Sirius's English lyrics. The juxtaposition of languages and the harmony of their voices created an unexpected and delightful contrast.

Orion and Walburga exchanged amused glances, both recognizing the rare and special moment unfolding before them. Without making a sound, they reached for their phones and began recording the impromptu performance. The room filled with the lively mix of languages and beats, and the siblings, lost in their performance, were completely unaware of their audience.

As the song drew to a close, Orion and Walburga looked at each other, both clearly impressed by their children’s talent. Walburga’s expression softened, her stern demeanor melting away as she watched Sirius and Regulus, her pride evident in her eyes.

The siblings finished their song with a flourish, their laughter and cheers filling the room. Only then did they notice their parents, who were still holding their phones, their faces alight with joy and surprise.

"Wow," Walburga said softly, her voice tinged with genuine admiration. "You two have quite the talent."

Sirius and Regulus exchanged grins, their earlier enthusiasm now mixed with a touch of embarrassment. They were met with applause and approving smiles from their parents, and in that moment, the room was filled with an unexpected, heartwarming harmony.
