Famous vs. Werewolf (a Remus Lupin Love Story)

The Change

Raine's POV

The next morning I woke in the forest, leaning against a tree. I looked back on the night before and broke back into tearless sobs- my tears had dried long ago.

I looked over in the direction of Hogwarts and shook my head. Breakfast would be over soon, but I didn't care. I began walking towards the castle when I stopped dead. I lifted my head and smelt the air- the blood of the students hitting me like a tonne of bricks.

"Oh no" I breathed as I realised what was going on.

When a vampire physically matured enough, they could decide whether to keep ageing or grow old like humans do. This process needes six times the amount of blood in the vamire's system- it usually lasted for about five months before passing if the vampire decides to grow old, but was permanent for those staying the same age.

I knew that I couldn't go to Hogwarts in this condition- so I would stay in the Forbidden Forest, and going into town to feed.

I pulled out my wand and cast my full formed patronus.

"Tell Professor Albus Dumbledore that I, Raine Midnight have just started the change and wish for his permission to stay in the Forbidden Forest until it passes."

My panther ran off in a swirl of silver. I sat down on a rock and stared off at the Astronomy Tower, imagining what the rest of the Marauders were doing.

"I agree Raine, take your time and keep up with your studies, if you are not back in time for exams I will send an auror to escort you to and from your exams for the safety of the rest of the students. Good luck, and choose your future wisely."

I turned around just in time to see a ball of light disappear and a bag flying to me. I caught the bag and opened it, smiling and silently thanking Dumbledore. It had clothes, school books, scrolls, inks, quills and a picture of the Marauders in it.

But I couldn't start studying yet. It was time to hunt.

Five Months later...

Moony's POV

It had been five months since I had seen Raine. She was gone. She disappeared. Poof. No-one knew where she was.

The rest of the Marauders knew what happened the night she disappeared, but no-one knew what happened to her. There were rumours going around the school that she had been expelled or something, but the Marauders knew it to be false.

It was all my fault. I shouldn't have followed her outside, I shouldn't have yelled at her and I shouldn't have left her in the forest.

It was my fault that Raine was missing.

Raine's POV

This was the day. I had to go back into Hogwarts and take my exams. I wasn't nervous about my exams though- I was nervous because it was the first time in five months I had contact with the Marauders. They would surely be angry with me for disappearing and not leaving them a note or any sort of excuse.

A twig snapped and my throat burned. My 'watcher' had arrived.
