As if to make his point further, the boggart wolf dropped something from its jaws
into the pool of blood on the floor. Everyone turned to look; and Mia gasped as she saw
the glimmer of a goblin-made gold bracelet, engraved with the words of the House of
Potter.
"I'm done." Remus shook his head, furious, and aimed his wand. "Riddikulus!"
The boggart wolf shrunk down, much like Peter's boggart cat had, into the small
frame of a tiny wolf pup, the sight of which made Mia want to sob as she recalled that
Remus had been bitten and turned when he was only four years old.
Remus glared at everyone before stalking toward the door.
"Oh, no you don't," Mia said firmly as she stood in his way.
"Move," Remus growled down at her.
"I am not afraid of you," she said, reaching up to touch his cheeks with her hands.
He tried to pull away from her at first, but she held on. "No! You would never hurt me.
And I am not afraid of you."
"You should be," Remus whispered, the expression of anger having fled his face as
he looked down at her with grief as though he had already killed her—or worse, infected
her.
Sirius's annoyed voice broke the tension. "If you're done with your pity party,
Remus, I'd like to get my own over with and forget this day ever happened," he said bitterly
as he approached the front of the room and glared at the professor, angry for being put in
this situation. "Just do it."
Remus and Mia turned just in time to see the small wolf pup grow upward, changing
into human form. Mia raised a brow as she saw Sirius standing there, face to face with
himself. She stepped closer, followed by Remus, who had gripped her hand in the process,
and the two lingered behind the real Sirius, staring into the visage of his boggart.
"Merlin." Sirius shook his head. "Walburga would love this."
Mia immediately noticed the differences in the boggart. Sirius's doppelgänger wore
green and black robes, the Slytherin crest embroidered on the lapel. His hair, while still
long and black, was neatly kept and tied back with a leather thong, much like the one
Regulus wore. He also had a sneer on his face that immediately reminded Mia of a young
Draco Malfoy.
