"What?" they asked.
"Well..." He hesitated for a moment before proceeding."I'm a werewolf."
"Knew it,"murmured Sirius,while James and Peter stared at me with awestruck eyes.
"H-how did you become one?" asked James.
"Er-bitten.Just like most every werewolf on the planet.Worst day of my life."I said sorrowfully.
"How so?" inquired Peter. Sirius nudged him with his elbow,but he and James were also staring at me curiously.
"Well," I started,"here's how it all began."
and he proceeded to tell his story
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"I was eight years old.Walking home from a long,exhausting day,I stopped to enjoy the landscape around me.About nine o'clock at night.Grassy pathway to home.Full moon.Just then,I heard a rustling in the bushes.Could it be a werewolf?I thought.Then a tall figure jumped out at me.Taller than a wolf,and more bloodthirsty.A werewolf.I stared at him,frozen with fear.He pounced at me,bit me,and just left me there.By morning,I trotted sadly back home,knowing what I had become.My parents shipped me away to a foster home-thank goodness they were wizards.And then I ended right here,after a while.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"So that's the reason you are absent on full moon." said James quietly,"a werewolf.Wow."
Remus stared at hem sadly.
"Will you guys still be friends?" he asked "or will you run away fearfully?"
Sirius looked as if I was crazy.
"Ditch you?" he asked,"you're our friend.We'll find a way,dude,we'll find a way."
