Make You See My Love

When the boys were finally out of ear shot the all took turns looking at one another. Neither knew what to say to what they just heard. What did they just hear? The girls had an accident and Hermione needed a potion called Wolfsbane to help her through her transformation? Snape is the one that usually brews the potion for her and Remus? That can’t be right they have to be delusional right Snape would never help Remus by making a potion and what is this about Snape taking the dark mark after what happened at the Whomping Willow? Did he really use that as an excuse to do something so stupid?

“What the hell was that all about?” James was the first to speak. You could tell by the sound of his voice he was a little worried about what he heard. “Do you think they were serious about being from the future?” He looked at Remus for an answer after all Remus has been talking to Hermione.

“Well it’s possible! It would explain why when she was telling me her story she didn’t really give out names. And she stated that Snape made a potion for her and I for our furry problem. I’m beginning to get the distinct feeling she was holding information back from me. Do you think it was me that might have…you know?”

Remus looked at the guys for reassurance but they all looked sad. So it was possible that Hermione was talking about him when she told him that she was bitten by a professor. At this point Remus was angry and he wanted answers so he turned around and headed back into the direction of the girls. He could hear the giggling and when he was in view they all stopped laughing and turned to him startled that he was even there. Hermione opened he eyes to see what had made the girls go quiet and sat up immediately upon seeing Remus with James and the others standing behind him.

”Remus are you ok. “ Her concern seemed to anger him more.

“No I’m bloody hell not ok. What the fuck is going on Hermione and I want real fucking answers not your version of the answers. “ When he was finishing snapping all four girls eyes widen in horror. But before Hermione could calm down and reply Ginny jumped up and advanced on the boys.

“You were listening in on our private conversation? Do you have any idea what the hell can happen when you fucking mess with time? Why do you think we came out here to talk? We have arrangements to make to help Hermione and you come out here and spy on us.” She stopped and looked at Hermione who had her head bowed and seemed to be crying. “Hey babe it’ll be.”

“No it won’t be ok Gin. What if someone else had walked up and heard what we said? Oh God what if.” She let her rambling trail off when she caught sight of Pettigrew. “Wormtail…raise your left sleeve please.”

Peter began sputtering along with the rest of the Marauders but before he could speak Sirius butted in. “If he had to raise his sleeve you should to, as a mater a fact you all should.”

“If we all have to then all of you have to. But we have reason to believe that Wormtail has been marked and we won’t discuss anything with him standing here among us.” Pansy replied with the nod of Luna and the others.

“Fine but then I want answers and we aren’t leaving until we do.” Remus replied before turning to his friends. “Well let’s show them.”

All Four men raised their sleeves to show the girls that they were in fact not hostile. However what was seen was shocking. Their friend since first year Peter Pettigrew was branded with the dark mark. The other three were clean skinned. The three men turned to Peter with shock and discomfort and anger boiling up inside them.

“Peter I understand why you did this. I was force to take the mark as well when I was fifteen. I had to kill a three year old muggle girl who just wanted her mum. If I didn’t I would have been killed and I didn’t have anyone that I could run to. I was so lost and felt isolated and if it hadn’t have been for the one night that I entered the Whomping Willow and almost gotten myself killed by Hermione I would still be in that place.” Pansy said sadly to Peter in front of everyone.

“You say you understand! I’ve always been known to everyone as the tag-a-long of the Marauders and there was nothing I could do that would make it different. I would walk down the hallway would see looks of disgust from girls while they drool all over the others. I haven’t been forced to kill anyone I don’t want to kill anyone and I wouldn’t have taken the mark if my dad hadn’t of forced me. The Dark Lord told me that he was just like me and that no one wanted him either. That together we can rule the world. That he has the power that no one else holds and that if I follow him then we will have great power together.” Peter replied with sadness on his face.

“Yeah sounds like the same story he fed me. But the truth of the matter is he doesn’t have that power and in my time where I’m from he’s dead. Death brought upon him by a sixteen year old boy he tried to kill. A sixteen year old boy he lost his mom and dad when he was a year old and he almost lost his godfather when he was fifteen. He was forced to live with his muggle family because his godfather was sent off to Azkaban because he was accused of telling the Dark Lord where to find the boy and then killing twelve muggles. But do you really want to know the truth of that story. The truth is that another friend that was chosen instead was the one that betray all three of his friend and then he faked his own death.” Pansy replied. “You don’t have to do this Dumbledore will help you. We will help you just like they helped me. Please Peter let us help you? The Dark Lord says what he has to, to get control of you. We all have been tricked by him. He's a Halfblood Peter did you know that. He spouts off pureblood propaganda to make him sound superior to the Pureblood society but in reality his father was a muggle. He's nothing but a halfblood that has all the pureblood on their knees to him. When I took the mark there were only two death eaters in the rank that felt sorry for me. That talked to me that was you and the spy for the order.”

“Pansy’s right and besides I don’t think your disgusting. I think your different like me.” Luna replied blushing a little from behind Pansy.

“Peter that story that Pansy just told you. Do you know who that was she was talking about?” Hermione replied.

“Don’t Hermione you know what will happen if they know we messed with time.” Ginny tried to argue.

“Yea but maybe we are suppose to make it better by helping out. Well Peter do you know? Why do you think I wanted to see your arm? No! Not a clue to who we are talking about. Well let me enlighten all three of you know. My third year Harry James Potter, Hermione Jane Granger, that would be me, and Ronald Billius Weasley followed his rat Scabbers towards the Whomping Willow because he had gotten away from Ron when suddenly a big black scraggly dog showed up and grabbed him by the leg and dragged him into the Whomping Willow and Harry and I had to go in after him. We followed the tunnel all the way to the building that we all know is the Shrieking Shack. We found him of course it was in one of the upstairs bedrooms holding Scabbers but then he informed us that Sirius Black was the dog that dragged him in. At the time Sirius was on the lose because he spent twelve years in Azkaban because one of his friends framed him and then disappeared. When Harry heard earlier in the year that Sirius was responsible for killing James and Lilly Potter needless to say he was angry. I would be to if I was told my father’s best friend and godfather was responsible for killing my friends. Only when he was going take revenge Remus was there to save Sirius. So we thought they were there together to kill Harry. Remus was our DADA Professor so he was around most of the year. He was absent frequently and Snape set and essay for us involving Werewolves and Animangus what the deferent’s were you know the basic blah, blah, blah. Anyways during that time I figured out that he was telling us that the dear Old Professor was a werewolf.”

She stopped and looked at all three men who were staring at her in disbelief.

“Ok make a long story short. Peter took the mark, Delivered the Potters to the Dark Lord consequently getting them killed except for their son Harry then faked his death framing a disgruntled and angry Sirius Black and then became Ron’s pet rat Scabbers. Harry saved Peter’s life that night in the shack not because he cared. But because he wanted his godfather to be cleared of the charges and the Order of Merlin revoked from Pettigrew who didn’t die trying to hold off Sirius. He saved Peter to give to the Dementors. However it was a full moon and Moony, I mean Remus hadn’t had his Wolfsbane potion so he was dangerous and Sirius did what he could to hold him off. But not good enough because Harry who had been deemed the Boy-Who-Lived by the wizarding world was bitten by Moony cursed to live the rest of his life be looked down upon because of his illness. I mean honestly what would you think if the boy who survived a full killing curse couldn’t handle a werewolf bite. So I took out a time turner and went back in time and just before he bit Harry I began howling like a wolf and he came to me. Now I didn’t intend to be bitten but that was the results and since then Harry and Ron don’t speak to me. So here I am a werewolf who usually takes a potion to keep sane during transformation will be facing her second transformation without the potion. I say second because the first was when Slughorn was taking over potions for Snape who was moved up to the DADA teacher and made the potion horribly and didn’t work for me. I nearly killed Pansy here if it hadn’t been for Ginny and Luna. Now does that clear anything up?”

“So it was me that you were talking about when you said you were bitten by a werewolf?” Remus asked quietly.

“Yes it was you as I have said. Is there anything you want to ask that I haven’t mentioned to convince you that I’m telling the truth?” Hermione asked.

“Ok tell me what you know that we know no one should know about?” James replied

“Oh James that’s very vague at the most. How about “I solemnly swear I’m up to no good.” Or “Mischief Managed. “ it’s a password created for a particular piece of parchment. Harry received into his care third year. And a particular cloak that he received as a Christmas present his first year. Those were always wonderful to have around. Anything else you want to ask. Dog, Stag, Rat and Werewolf hmmm. We will eventually have a spy in the death eater camp that will help us succeed in killing the Dark Lord that was six months ago for us. However until Peter here figures out what he wants then we won’t be discussing in front of him. However be aware if he disappears on you guys. Oh and Peter if what we said today gets leaked to the Slytherin’s and then Voldemort finds out I will have your rat head on a plate.”

That was the only thing Hermione had to say on the matter and Peter swallowed the lump in his throat and suddenly his mouth seemed to be dry.

--Well we all knew that the boys wouldn't leave it alone didn't we, What are the boys going to do with Peter? Well you'll just have to find out won't you LOL! Also I wanted to bring to your attention that No the Wolfsbane will not be ready for Hermione to take but you'll find out why in the next chapter.-- Keep reviewing everyone
