Title: "The Song of Secrets"

After the mysterious disappearance of their father, Sirius and Regulus Black embark on a search for answers. While trying to piece together clues from their past, they recall a cherished childhood song their father used to sing, which seems to hold hidden meanings.

Sirius grins at the memory, prompting Regulus to pause, deep in thought.

---

Sirius: "Do you remember the tale Dad used to sing?"

Regulus: "Down by the bay... Where the watermelon rot."

Sirius: "Yes, that one!"

Regulus: "If you go home..."

Sirius: "Just don't get caught."

Regulus: "Just don't get caught."

Sirius: "But if you do..."

Regulus stops, a thoughtful look crossing his face. His usual cool demeanor falters for just a moment as he turns to Sirius seriously.

Regulus: "Our father will say..."

Sirius, lost in the nostalgic flow of the song, doesn’t notice Regulus's change in tone.

Sirius: "Don’t run away, I’ll keep you safe."

Regulus: "...Down by..."

Sirius: "...the bay..."

Regulus’s eyes narrow with realization, his voice soft and deliberate. "You don’t think he’s been hiding something there, do you?"

The song, once a sweet memory of childhood, now feels like a coded message from the past, and Regulus wonders if the place they used to visit holds the key to the mystery of their father’s disappearance.
