Sirius ran away, wanting to leave the name Black behind. Regulus was forced on a path he barely escaped. Hope is scarce, and the Dark Lord grows stronger every day. Given a chance to change the course of the war, Regulus goes to the person one person who can help him: his estranged brother. All characters that aren't Ocs belong to J.K. Rowling. I do not support JKR's transphobic views.
