-Remus turns into a werewolf

*Layla's POV*

We were walking out of the whomping willow. Sirius and Harry were helping Ron walk while me and Hermione were behind them.

"Sorry about the bite, I reckon that twinges a bit" Sirius said

"A bit? A bit?!" Ron said "You almost pulled my leg off!"

"I was going for the rat, normally in fact, i have a very sweet dispostion as a dog. More than once James suggested that I make the change permanent, the tail I could live with, fleas, I couldn't." Sirius said

"Amazing satement." I said

"Yeah, you're my child" Sirius laughed

I laughed and we got outside the the massive tree and Ron sat down on part of the stump. Me, Hermione, and Harry looked at Ron's leg. Sirius walked off. Me and Harry both looked at him walking away.

"You two better go" Hermione said

"No no," I started

"We'll stay here" Harry finished

"You go, I'll stay" Hermione smiled

I looked at Ron

"It's ok.." Ron said

I looked at Harry and nodded my head towards Sirius. We stood up and walked over to Sirius together

"I'll never forget the first time I walked through those doors," Sirius said "It'll be nice to do that again as a free man"

I smiled as I looked at Hogwarts. The place that I met the people who I could trust with my life. The lights of each room lit up the outside as the darkness surrounded it.

"That was a noble thing you did back there, he doesn't deserve it" Sirius sighed

"Well, I just didn't think my dad would have wanted his two best friends to become killers." Harry said "Besides, dead, the truth lies with him. Alive you're free"

Sirius and Harry turned around as they heard Peter talking to Ron. I kept my gaze at the massive castle like school. It was the place I got away from where I was forced to be 'shy' all the time, have to stay inside unless someone comes with me. But here, I felt free. I could walk outside on my own without getting yelled at, unless it's too late at night, the. I'll get yelled at

Harry and Sirius turned back around

"I don't know if you know Harry, but when you were born, James and Lily made me your godfather" Sirius said

"I know.." Harry replied

Everything is starting to make sense.

"As for you Layla.." Sirius said

"Hm?" I said

"The day you born, one of the happiest days of my life. I wish I could've raised you. And see you grow into the girl you are now. Until you turned three, I was able to see you grow up. You and Harry spent quite a lot of time together as babies"

"Then you went to Azkaban.." I sighed

"Now, Id understand if you would like to stay with who you live with now" Sirius said "But if you ever wanted a different home.."

"Come and live with you?" Harry asked

"That's just a suggestion. I don't know if you'd want too"

"I'd love to" I smiled

"Harry! Layla!" Hermione yelled

We turned around as she pointed to full moon lighting up the sky and cloud around it. Lupin looked towards the moon. He started turning into a werewolf
