Thank you to everyone who's had a look at and reviewed "Innocent". Chapter 5 is now published; enjoy! :D
For those interested, here's an excerpt:
Remus Lupin had
thought his life was about as bad as it was possible to get. He’d spent the
past month at a werewolf camp, trying to talk sense into Greyback - who was
getting restless again, and had bitten a girl a month back - and had returned
only a week ago, with a number of new scars for his efforts, to learn that
Sirius Black, his old friend-turned-enemy, had escaped from Azkaban; very
little wizarding news got through to the camps, unfortunately. As if this all
wasn’t bad enough, things had become a thousand times worse by the arrival of a
weary - and for the first time since Remus had known him - scared - Professor
Dumbledore.
“I don’t want the
Aurors here,” Remus said. “I can handle Sirius if it comes to it.”
“I’d thought as much,”
Dumbledore said quietly and then fell silent.
“It doesn’t make
sense!” Remus said, his voice muffled because his face was buried in his
scarred hands. “Sirius-” Remus had decided long ago that he would still call
Sirius ‘Sirius’, for the same reasons he had called Voldemort ‘Voldemort’. “-didn’t
have to tell the muggles he was taking Harry. It would have made more sense to
just kidnap him.”
“I fear Sirius may
have been unhinged by his time in Azkaban,” Professor Dumbledore said, his eyes
lacking their usual twinkle. “What makes sense to him may seem like insanity to
us.”
The next chapter will probably be up a little earlier than usual - maybe by Saturday. :)
Happy reading!
