"Oh, vengeance is sweet." Snape stated pointing his wand at Sirius. "Oh how I hoped to be the one to catch you."

"Severus." Uncle Remus started. Snape pointed his wand at my uncle.

"I told Dumbledore you were helping an old friend into the castle, now here's the proof."

"Brilliant Snape. Once again you put your brain to the task and soon come to the wrong conclusion. Now if you'll excuse us Remus and I have unfinished business to attend to." Sirius said. Snape stuck his wand against Sirius's neck. I slowly pull my wand out of my pocket getting ready to use it.

"Give me a reason. I beg you." Snape challenged.

"Severus don't be a fool."

"He can't help it, it's habit." Sirius remarked.

"Sirius be quiet!" Uncle Remus says. Sirius said something else to fast for me to make out.

"Look at you quarreling like an old married couple." Snape commented.

"Why don't you run along and play with your chemistry set!" I held back a laugh by coughing.

" I could do it, you know? But why deny a dementor, their so longing to see you. Do I see a flicker of fear?" Snape asks stepping forward as Sirius stepped back. "For a dementors kiss, one must imagine what that's like to endure said to be unbearable to witness, but I'll do my best." Snape stated. He pointed his wand at the entrance. "After you." He motioned us to go.

I raised my wand at Sirius and quickly pointing it to Snape.

"Expelliarmus!" I yelled. Snape went flying back into the bed. He was unconscious.

"Anna what did you just do?!"

"You attacked a teacher!" Hermione exclaimed.

"Tell me about Peter Pettigrew!" I said pointing my wand at Sirius. "And tell me what really happened to my mother!" I stated.

"He went to school with us. We thought he was our friend!" Uncle Remus exclaimed.

"No Peter Pettigrew is dead." I said. "You killed him." I said pointing my wand back at Sirius.

"I thought so too, until Harry mentioned seeing him Pettigrew on the map." Uncle Remus says standing in front of Sirius.

"The map was lying." Harry pitched in.

"The map never lies!" Sirius spoke up. "Pettigrew is alive and he's right there!" Sirius pointed to Ron well more like Scabbers.

"Me?" Ron asked scared.

"No not you! Your rat!"

"Scabbers has been in my family for-" Ron was cut off.

"12 years? Curiously long for a garden rat! He's missing a toe isn't he?" Sirius questioned getting closer to Ron. I lowered my wand slightly.

"So what?"

"All they can find of Pettigrew was-"

"His finger. The coward cut it off to make everyone believe he was dead! And then he transformed! To a rat!" Sirius spat.

So he's an animagus too then?

"Show me." Harry said. Sirius grabbed 'scabbers' much to Ron's dislike.

Sirius set him down and 'scabbers' started running around.

Scabbers transformed into a man. Sirius and Uncle Remus dragged him out of the wall. He was a short and stubby man.

"Remus? Sirius? My old friends." Peter said trying to run past them again it to be pushed back. Uncle Remus and Sirius had their wands pointed at Peter. He looked around and spotted Harry. "Harry! Look at you, just like your father James! Me and him were the best of friends!" Sirius grabbed Peters arm.

"How dare you speak to Harry!" Peter scurried away. "How dare you speak of James in front of him." Peter ran behind the piano with Uncle Remus and Sirius on either side.

"You sold James and Lily to Voldemort didn't you?! Then you hurt my sister!"

"I didn't meant to. The dark lord, you have no idea the weapons he possessed. Sirius what would you have done?" Peter questioned.

"I would've died!" Sirius yelled. "I would've died then betray my friends!" Peter crawled under the table and tried to run to the exit but I blocked it.

"Oh Annabelle! Your so beautiful like your mother! She wouldn't of wanted me killed!" He said grabbing my arms.

"Don't talk to my daughter!" Sirius growled yanking Peter back making him fall. "If you think Voldemort wouldn't kill you then we would! Together!"

"No!" Harry yelled.

"Harry." Uncle Remus says. "This man-"

"I know what he is but we will take him to the castle." Harry said. Peter fell to his knees.

"Thank you boy bless you." Peter said reaching out to Harry.

"Get off!" Harry said stepping back. "I said we'd take you to the castle after that the dementors could have you." Harry said. Peter began to cry.

"Stop crying!" I said to Peter stepping forward.
"Now what happened to my mother? What really happened to her?" I said stepping closer to Peter as the rest watched. He cowered in fear.

"Tell me!" I yelled pointing my wand at him. "Or I will blow your head off and it will hurt. I promise you that." I growled. Peter lightly laughed.

"Just like your mother she became quite violent herself." He said. Uncle Remus growled. I jabbed my wand on his head.

"Now." I said. He whimpered.

"When he took out the muggles that night it affected her too." Sirius said. "I was able to heal her in time but she hit her head too hard onto the concrete and she never woke up." Sirius said. I put my wand back.

"That's all I needed to know." I whispered.

I was the first one out. Followed by Sirius and the others.

So Sirius is innocent. I wish I knew all of this sooner.
