Raised by Wolfstar

Chapter 24

Dear Gods, it's been a while. I'm sorry sweet angels! Here we go again. I'm hoping to be a little more regular. I've been crazy busy.

The men decided to tell the boys what happened after they had eaten breakfast and were all sitting comfortably in front of the fireplace in their rooms. Harry and Draco panicked firing questions at the men asking what would happen, where she was, if everyone was safe. Their questions were answered to the best of Sirius and Remus' abilities, however the entire time their grips on one another's hands were tightening.

The next few weeks went by smoothly the school year started and Harry, Draco, Hermione, Neville, and Ron were sorted into the same house, Gryffindor. Harry and Draco were just happy to have their friends around, it made them feel safer, like they were normal wizards living a normal life. Remus was a wonderful teacher, all the students adored him and his lessons, they thought that they were really learning something useful. Sirius taught during the full moon to give his husband a break and time to heal, he never got as beat up or as drained as Remus. Harry absolutely loved having his godfathers around, despite knowing that someone was out to hurt him, everything felt okay as long as they were all together.

After a short period of normal bliss Sirius and Remus decided to try date night in Hogsmeade again, they believed it to be relatively safe as there hadn't been any sightings of Bellatrix since the bookshop incident. Remus had the entire day planned, first they would spend a lazy morning just hanging around their rooms, more specifically in bed. After getting up and dressed they were going to the bookshop, then Honeydukes, then after a long walk they'd head to the Three Broomsticks for dinner before going back to the castle.

Of course, things had been good a little too long. The day was going perfect, just like Remus imagined it would. But, during dinner at the Three Broomsticks the men heard an unmistakable laugh, their eyes got wide as they gripped their hands together, left some money on the table and ran outside trying to catch Sirius' cousin before she could slip away.

"Moony, go left! I'll go right! The bond will let us know if either of us are in trouble!" Sirius yelled running to the right as soon as they were out of the pub.

"Be safe, I love you." Remus called over his shoulder looking for the black bushy hair off Bellatrix.

"I love you. Go!" Sirius called back.

Sirius ran after the sounds of his cousin's laughter, he was just behind her keeping the flow of her tattered black dress in his sight. Running through people, ignoring angry shouts Bellatrix ran as fast as she could, her horrible laugh echoing off of the buildings, luckily Sirius was just a bit faster and tackled her to the ground just as she had slowed. He looked up seeing the reason she had paused, Remus, his husband and best friend smiled down.

"We got her, Pads." Remus said taking her wand.

"Oh silly boys, silly silly little boys!" Bellatrix laughed. She was still laying on the ground, Sirius holding her down, their wands pointed at her. "The rat and I will save the day! We'll bring him back! Don't you worry, silly boys!"

Remus sent a patronus to Dumbledore to tell him what was happening just before he felt a hand grab his shirt just below his neck and saw Sirius' eyes go wide. That's the last thing he saw before feeling the pull in his gut, the familiar pull of apparating.

"REMUS!" Sirius called, knowing his husband wouldn't be able to hear him. "Bellatrix! You foul woman! Where is he?!" He yelled turning to his cousin who was cackling with laughter.

"Silly boys! Silly boys!" She said laughing into Sirius' face. "Did you think we didn't have a plan? We'll have what we need soon enough dear cousin. Don't you worry." She was still smiling as Sirius shoved off of her and placed a full body bind on her.
