The new Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher has it out for them, detentions are piling up, and with Albus Dumbledore gravely ill and near-fatal accidents occurring on and off the Quidditch pitch, a fear of death looms.

"When all this is over, we'll be a proper family, you'll see." Sirius Black had given a Marauder's promise to Harry Potter, his one and only godson, and he was desperate to stand by his word... but fate played against them. All it took was one stunning curse and a veil of death, to not only have this promise broken, but also have hearts shattered into shreds. Even before death took him as its own, Sirius was left to suffer everyday more than the one before. He had lost himself a long time ago and carried on from monotonous days and nights with zero will to pull himself back to the land of the living. [Speechless pain and haunting memories possess the ability to take down even the most powerful of all, those who were desperate to keep themselves standing upright.] What could have happened in an alternative universe (AU) -different ending scenario to- the Order of the Phoenix, and what would follow after turning points of events are what brought this story into existence. Will death be cruel enough to seperate godfather from his godson, without giving them the chance to live as a true family, at least for once as promised? Is the threat of death something to be endured only once?

Messrs Moony, Wormtail, Padfoot, and Prongs certainly feel quite accomplished after completing what they dub as the Marauder's Map. A map designed to show every classroom, hall, corridor, and even secret passageway of the Hogwarts Castle but also capable of identifying every person, ghost, and poltergeist roaming about. Or so they thought. It takes Elspeth Hayes casually strolling down the corridor one afternoon for the boys to realise that she's not showing up on the map and they want to figure out why. But Elspeth is not about to give away her secrets so easily, after all, a girl has to have her secrets to keep the boys on their toes.
