RPG: the Abandoned Werewolf

Remus Lupin

Remus was sitting outside a window in a normal looking house. He had finally found where LIly and James were. They had been moving around a lot lately and it had him worried. He let out a sigh. He knew something had changed with the way they were treating him. They didn't trust him anymore and it bothered him. He had a feeling that they were being betrayed but it wasn't by him. He needed to figure out how to let them know. He sighed once more and walked away from the house. He needed to do some thinking.

He walked to a small pub that he and some friends of his knew about. He hoped one of his fiends would be there for him to talk to. He sat down at the bar and the bartender without asking took a beer for Remus and Remus slipped the bartender the money for the beer.

David sat in the pub, staring at his firewiskey. He had just been at the Potter's house,
and he didn't liek what they had told him. He found it hard to believe.

He didn't know Remus for that long, more than a year now, but he had never been able to
believe Remus was one of them.
But now, evyerhting became clearer, and David found it hard what to believe.

He sighed and took a long drink of the rest of his firewiskey. He placed the glass down
and got up, taking his cloak and swinging it over his shoulders.

He still had an appointment with Albus, and he had to be back at Minerva to pick up
Evan.

When he was about to leave the pub, he saw Remus sitting at the bar, looking defastated.
He hesstiated, not know whether he shoudl go to him or not. He sighed and stepped towards
Remus, placing a hand on the man's shoulder
'Are you alright?' he asked as he took the seat next to Remus

Remus Lupin

Remus jumped slightly when he felt David's hand on his shoulder and then took a big drink of his beer. "No... my friends all think I've betrayed them, but I haven't... not that they'll listen to me anyways." He took another long drink of his beer and sighed. He looked over at David and said in a quiet voice, "You don't think I've betrayed them do you?" He had very few friends that were still standing by him through this, and he hoped David would be one of them. He wouldn't be surprised if David was another person who would think he was a traitor but he had to know.

David shook his head and removed his hand from Remus' shoulder. He still knew he
found it hard what to think of Remus, but Remus had saved Evan, so David really
wanted to trust him.
'Of course not' he said, leaning on the bar, but still looking at Remus. 'It would be stupid
from me if I didn't.'
I don't understand....
Why him?

Lily Potter

Lily was rocking Harry to sleep, humming a quiet lullaby for him as the baby Harry was indeed falling asleep. She had stayed in their room the entire time that David had come visit. James had suggested to her that she worry more about Harry than their talk, so she kissed him on the cheek before tending to their baby. She stood from the rocking chair and crossed the room and laid Harry down in his crib when the door creaked open to reveal a very exhausted James Potter.

"How was it? Is David gone?" she asked quietly, careful not to wake Harry up as she walked towards her husband.

James Potter

He gestured outside. "We should talk outside so we don't disurb Harry's sleep." He held the door open for Lily before he closed it promptly as he directed them both back downstairs to the living room. He sank down onto the couch and took off his glasses, rubbing his eyes.

"I really don't want to believe it, Lily.. But.. for all these years.."

Lily Potter

Lily sat down beside James and caressed him, leaning onto his shoulder. "I know, honey. But what other explanation could there be?"

James Potter

"In the condition he was in.. I really thought that Remus was harmless deep down.. But.. With Voldemort and werewolves working together.. I'm not quite sure anymore.."

Remus Lupin

Remus sighed, "Thanks David... I just... I don't understand how they could do this. I went to school with them. I helped keep them out of trouble. I don't understand how they think I could do this. I have m own suspisions about who is really betraying them but the won't listen to me." Remus took another long drink of his beer as he finished it off. The bartender handed him another one and he payed for it and started drinking it.

[OOC: Tricia, I won't throw Sirius in yet... I have to go to work in a few minutes...]



David smiled politely at Remus. David also has his suspections about a certain person
near the Potters. But of course, nothing was certain, so he didn't want to make public
suspections about anyone.

'Don't drink too much, Remus' David said, smiling faintly. 'The Order still needs you. And
Dumbledore still trusts you'

Remus Lupin

Remus sighed and took another drink. He smiled slightly over at David and said, "Yeah... I know he still trusts me... but it hurts so much when my own friends don't." He put his beer bottle down and looked down at his hands. "Do you know when the next meeting is? A few more days and I have to go for a run in the forest." He knew that David would know what he meant, and his past few transformations had been lonely ones since his friends didn't trust him. They seemed to think he would use his transformation as an excuse to attack them, but he never would.

[OOC: No problem, Viccy.]

James Potter

"Was there even a purpose of making Peter the Secret-Keeper like Sirius suggested? I personally don't think it's a good idea at all, but.."

Lily Potter

"We need to talk to Albus about this, James. It would certainly be pointless if we can't distinguish who we should and shouldn't trust. Right now we're not even sure if Remus really is the one who's betrayed us.." Her voice broke as she held on tighter to James.

James Potter

James rubbed Lily's back. "It's going to be all right, Lily.. We'll get through this.. We'll see who's to blame.. We will.." James had slipped on his glasses again and hugged Lily tight. It was hard to believe that Remus, one of his best friends, would turn on them. The idea itself was difficult enough to grasp, let alone believe.

David shook his head. 'I have no idea' he said. 'I will speak to Albus later this evening, I
will ask him about the next meeting'

He took a deep breath and started at the counter before he turned to Remus again.
'Listen, I have to go. I still need to see Albus and I also need to pick up Evan'
He got up and placed a hand on Remus' shoulder

'Take care' he said and smiled at Remus

Remus sighed and nodded. "You take care too. Take care of Evan as well." He turned back to the bar and took another long drink of his beer. Once he finished off his second beer he decided to go back to the apartment he had been staying in. He hadn't really been affected by the beer he had drank. Remus let himself into his apartment and locked the door behind him. He slumped down on the couch with a deep sigh. He started his fire with a flick of his wand and stared into it. Another sleepless night for me... Why don't they believe me.... I'm not a spy... I could never do that to them.

David left the pub and apparated in Hogsmead. He looked around for a moment, seeing
where he was until he marched over to pub at the end of the road. It had been years since
he had been here, and he wondered why Albus wanted to talk with him there. It was
a horrible place, and David remembered why the students had been avoiding it. It wasn't
really the pub that attracted ordinairy people.

As David approached the building, he kept his eyes fixed on the sign of a be-headed Hog
The sign said: 'The Hog's Head'
He neared the door and opened it slowily, looking around curriosly. He had never been
inside, so he was at his guard. Being an Auror had always made him causious.

There weren't many people inside, so David entered the pub, closing the door behing him.
He saw an old, hunchbacked man standing behind the counter, who was refilling his
wiskey stocks. He had his eyes fixed on David, but David only nodded.
David had no idea where to wait for Albus, so he walked over to the corner and sat down
at a dirty looking table.

Wrapping his cloak around himself, he sat there. Waiting. He didn't look around too
much, because he didn't want to attract any attention.
After a few minutes, the door entered and a tall, cloaked figure, but David recognized
him at once. The man didn't look around, but walked straightly to the corner David was
sitting in.

'Good evening, David' the man said

'Good evening, Albus' David spoke

~***~



Sirius stepped of his motorbike and tapped it with his wand to lock it. He walked over
to the house with a depressed look on his face.
He wasn't amused.
He neared the house and knocked the door. Only people who knew who were in there
could knock. If anyone else did, the once inside would not hear them.
Sirius waited impatiently until James, or Lily opened the door of Godrics Hollow

Remus spent much too long trying to figure out what his friends were thinking and it got him into a depressed state quiet quickly. He summoned his bottle of firewhiskey and a glass and started drinking again. Why do they think it's me? It's obviously Sirius... I could never do that to them... I would never.... Remus' depression soon gave over to rage as the firewhiskey took effect.

He held the glass in his hand that he had filled up and emptied three times already and stared at it. I never betrayed them... even when James was being a right arse... I aways helped them. His grip on the glass tightened as he continued to think about his 'friends'. Eventually his grip got so tight that the glass broke in his hand. He yelled out in pain but did nothing to heal it. He just summoned another glass and kept drinking.

David got up.
'You wanted to see me?' Albus said.
David nodded. 'And I believe, you wanted to see me as well.
He could see how Dumbledore smiled under his hood.
'Indeed' he said and nudged David to come with him.

Dumbledore walked over to the counter. He had a quick word with the hunchbacked man,
who passed him a key. Dumbledore walked towards the stairs at the back of the pub, and
David followed. Once upstair, Dumbledore went to the door at the back of the hall, and
unlocked it with the key. He let David enter first.
It was a dark, also dirty looking room, and David would never want to stay a night her.
The sheets on the bed were all stained and there were moth holes in it.
He watched Dumbledore, who locked the door with the key and his wand. He than waced
his wand and egnited the fire in the dusty looking fireplace.

The fire revealed the room, and there was a table with two arm chairs in it. David took of
his cloak and threw it over the back of the chair. Dumbledore did the same.
David sat down, but Dumbledore didn't. He walked over to the window and watched
the streets. It had began to snow outside and David felt glad they were here, near the
fire, and not downstairs in the chilly pub

'Why did you wanted to see me?' Dumbledore said, his hands on his back, still looking
outside.
David sat in a bit, sittting at the tip of the chair.
'I ..er...' he said. 'I... I would like to ask permission to work more for the Order'

Dumbledore turned around.
'You told me two years ago you wanted to do less for the Order' he said
'I know' David said, rubbing his hands. 'Evelyn was pregnant...'
'And now you still have Evan to take care off'
'I know' David said again 'But I... I've got information about Voldemort'

*I'm gonna introduce an OC*

Ephram Jacobson
age: 20
blood: pure
house: Ravenclaw
friends: Remus Lupin and Hadley Harper
facts: He went to school with Remus and the marauders but he was only really friends with Remus and Hadley. He and Remus were close friends but became even closer after James and Lily were told by Sirius that Remus is the spy. He works in a shop in Hogsmeade and shares and apartment with Remus. He is not associated with the Order but knows about it through Remus and passes on any information he gets to Remus.



Remus was VERY drunk by the time Mark got home. He was still bleeding and had started mumbling to himself about Sirius being a right git. He looked up when the door shut and smiled wearily and said, "'ello M-mark." The blood on his hand had started to dry up and he was getting quite dizzy with the mix of alcohol and loss of blood. He went to stand up but fell back down onto the couch as soon as he tried.

Ephram Jacobson

Ephram sighed and walked over to the couch to inspect his friend's wounds. "What the hell have you done to yourself Remus?" When he got no repsonse he realized his friend had passed out. He took the glass out of Remus' uninjured hand and did a quick cleaning and healing spell on the injured hand. He got off the couch and lay Remus down on his side. "We will be having a talk when you wake up... this can't keep going on." He grabbed one of their bottles of hangover cure and sat it next to the couch and went to make himself some dinner.
