A Black and a Weasley

Chapter 35

"If you want to kill Lola or  Harry, you'll have to kill us, too!"Mione tells Sirius as she stands in front of me and Harry

"No. Only one will die tonight"Sirius tells her

"Then it'll be you!"Harry says as he lunges towards Sirius

"Going to kill me, Harry?"Sirius asks him

"Yes"Harry says and the door bangs open and Remus is standing there

"Professor Lupin!"Mione, Harry and Ron say but Remus ignores them and eyes  Sirius intensely.

"Looking a bit ragged, aren't we, Sirius? Finally the skin reflects the madness within."Remus says to him

"You'd know all about the madness within, wouldn't you, Remus?"Sirius says and then Remus  steps forward and embraces Sirius in a hug

"Remus"I mutter shocked

"No! I trusted you! I covered up for you. And all this time you've been his friend!  He's a werewolf! That's why he's been missing classes!"Mione says making Harry and Ron stare, dumbfounded, at Remus

"How long have you known?"Remus asks her

"Since Professor Snape set the essay"Mione answers

"You're the brightest witch of your age I've ever met, Hermione. Your only competition is Lola"Remus says to her

"Did you know Lola?"Ron asks me

"Of course I knew. Who do you think helps him during the full moon?" I ask Ron

"Yes, you glow like the sun. And you howl at the moon. Enough talk! He dies. Now. If you won't do it with me, Remus, I'll do it alone."Sirius says

"Wait, Sirius"Remus says

"I did my waiting! Twelve years of it! In Azkaban! Away from my Daughter! Trust me, you wouldn't have lasted a week!"Sirius says to Remus

"All right then. As you wish"Remus says

"No!"Harry  says as he raises his wand when Remus  disarms him."You betrayed my parents! You betrayed Lola's mum!You sold them to Voldemort"Harry says to Sirius

"It's a lie! I never would've betrayed James and Lily! And I would never betray Mia"Sirius says

"Harry! listen" I tell him stepping forward

"Did he listen! When my mother was dying! Did he hear her screaming! Did he hear when your mother was was screaming" Harry asks me

"No! I wasn't there! And I'll regret it the rest of my life!"Sirius says to Harry

"Someone else betrayed your parents and Mia ,Harry. Someone in this room right now. Someone who, until quite recently, I believed to be dead"Remus says

"He's as good as dead"Sirius mutters

"What're you talking about? There's nobody here" I ask him

"Oh yes there is. Come out, come out, Peter Come out, come out and play"Sirius says

"You're mad"Ron says and I look over to Ron and in his hands Scabbers twists  violently.

"Expelliarmus!" Mine and Harry's wands fly from our hands and I turn and find Snape standing in the doorway, smiling smugly. "Ah, vengeance is sweet. How I hoped I'd be the one to catch you." Snaps says to Sirius

"Severus --"Remus starts to say

"I told Dumbledore you were helping your old friend into the castle. And here's the proof"Snape says to Remus
