The Other Side of the Story~~~Book 3~~~

Harry

I left straight away. What were they thinking letting Harry have that? And why was Professor Lupin's nickname on that paper? Maybe it wasn't.

I went searching for Harry the rest of the time, but I couldn't find Harry, Hermoine, or Ron. It was starting to get late, so I started to head back.

As soon as I got back to Hogwarts, I searched for Professer Lupin. I found him in his office reading yet another book about werewolves.

Knock, knock.

"Come in," said a soft voice.

"Moony.

Ah Molly. I wondered when you would visit me next.

What is the Marauder's Map?

Oh. Ahhhh....Well. Every month I get sick and.....  you know..... I had to go somewhere safe. There is a passage under the Womping Willow, built for me, to keep everyone safe. When my friends, your father included, found out, they loved me more than ever. They became unregistered animagus.

Thats illegal.

They did a lot of illegal things in there time.

Great. My Dad is a criminal," I said sarcastically.

He chuckled.

"Yes, but only for his friends. Your Dad became a Stag, hence the name Prongs, Wormtail is a rat, he always was behind us in studies and well everything.

That's not very nice.

Well its true. He died the day before your parents trying to stop Sirius Black from attacking your parents.

That's a lie....

What?

You were talking to me with direct contact until you said that last line.

I.... uhhh.....

Tell. Me. The. Truth."

I said that with such determination that I didn't think that was me.

"Let me finish and then I might tell you.

You will tell me.

Maybe.

Fine.

Anyways. Your Dad. Wormtail. Padfoot was and still is a dog. And then there was Moony, me.

Who was Wormtail and Padfoot?

Ah. That question. Wormtail is a good friend but a real coward. His name is Peter Pettigrew.

He is in that picture in Hagrid's book!!

Yes, I have seen that book sticking out of your bag."

I gave him a dead stare.

I sighed.

"What about Padfoot?

His name is Sirius Black.

The one who killed my parents??

No, you were lieing when you where talking about Wormtail.

You and your memory.... Sirius nevered killed your parents.

But there is evidence against him. He is... was in Azkaban.

Yes...

Do you know where he is? Did you help him come in here?

Yes and no.

How should I believe you. You and everyone else is lying to me AND Harry.

You let him in. You let him in!!

Molly!! Please!! Stop screaming. You want to meet him? Harry has seen him a couple of times.

What!! Harry knows to?

Yes and no. I am pretty sure he thinks it's a grim.

Really? Thats.... Thats....

Horrible?

Yes!!

Do you want to meet him?"

There was silence for a long time.

What should I do? I mean if I see him, I could explode and give him a peice of my mind. But if I don't then I will have to live knowing that Black is one yard away. Waiting to attack Harry.

I finally said, "Okay. I will go and see him.

Molly Potter. You have detention.

Really?

Yes and no.

Stop saying that will you. You said it like 3 times in the past 5 minutes.

6.

Whatever. Fine what day and time.

Friday at 8.

Okay."

And I left, thinking what should I do when I meet Black.
