SIRIUS GIVE ME MY LAPTOP!
Oh god he's doing the puppy eyes. Aww hell. Fine obey Sirius.
Sirius moved without thinking shoving Draco away from Harry and barring his teeth, a deep snarl rumbling from his chest. Narcissa stepped back pulling her son with her. "What is with that beast?"
Harry knelt beside him grabbing his collar. "Padfoot calm down its just Draco."
I don't care if he's the Pope you are not going anywhere near him from now on. His father is a Death Eater! He snagged Harry's arm in his mouth and tried to tug Harry away from the Malfoys but Harry pulled his arm out of the dog's mouth. "I don't know what's gotten into him." Harry admitted looking at Draco with an embarrassed smile.
Draco reached out to pet him and Sirius went to snap when a memory jumped to the forefront of his mind.

Another Black I see... I guess Slytherin shall gain another of your family.
Please don't put me there... The boy pleaded
A Black that doesn't want to be in Slytherin ehhh. Then where should I put you? I see you have plenty of pride and no patience so not Hufflepuff. A good mind but not the desire to show it so Ravenclaw wouldn't fit you. Ahh but the bravery and loyalty and chivalry and daring fill you so if I must sort you I say it shall be... GRYFFINDOR!
He scrambled from the seat and pulled the hat from his head replacing it on its stool an turned to face the crowd. The Slytherins murmured amongst themselves while the Gryffindors starred at him open mouth. Head down he hurried to his new house and sat alone watching the sorting silently. Soon the black haired boy James who'd he'd sat with on the train put the hat upon his head and it had scarcely brushed his untidy hair before it shouted Gryffindor. James grinned and took the hat off before jogging to his table and sitting beside him. Seeing his obvious discomfort James smiled at him. "Your family doesn't matter to me. If you prove yourself to be a true Gryffinor then your my friend no matter what."

Draco's hand brushed the top of his head and he allowed it. He would wait and see before judging Draco. That's what James would do.
Harry hugged his neck. "Tell me what that was about later 'kay?" He whispered in Sirius's ear. The Animagus dipped his head watching Draco and Narcissa carefully.
"It was nice to meet you Mrs. Malfoy. I'm gonna go put my stuff on the train." Harry murmured to his shoes before pushing his trolley towards the train Sirius gladly following. He looked back over his shoulder to see Draco in a heated whispered argument with his mother and figured Narcissa wasn't thrilled about her kid running with Harry. People pointed and whispered as Harry passed and for the most part Harry kept his head down his bangs blocking his scar from view.
With Sirius helping they dragged Harry's trunk on the train the pair made their way down the train looking for an empty compartment. They found one towards the back and Sirius flopped down on a seat watching as Harry struggled to stow his truck in the overhead. There wasn't much he could do to help and he was to annoyed to think of a way. Of course James's acceptance of him despite his family had to pop into his head right when he was about ready to tear Draco into little tiny pieces. As if thinking of the little Death Eater summoned him Draco stuck his head in the carriage and seeing Harry tugged his trunk in after him with Athena in his hand. Harry grabbed her cage and placed her next to Hedwig before going to help Draco with his trunk. Draco muttered a thanks before flopping down on the seat opposite Sirius. "My mother doesn't want me near Padfoot She thinks he's rabid."

That was before I found out who his parents are. Sirius grumbled shifting to the side so Harry could sit down next to him. The train began to move and Harry starred out the window as Draco waved goodbye to his parents. As soon as the station faded from sight though he was back sprawling across his seat. The door slid open again to admit a bushy haired girl dragging her trunk. "Do you mind if I sit here? The other empty carriages have complete morons in them."
"Sure take a seat." Draco sat up so there was plenty of room for the girl. "I'm Draco Malfoy and that's Harry Potter and his dog Padfoot."
The girl's mouth dropped open as she turned to stare at Harry her eyes flickering to his forehead. Harry ducked his head and shifted uncomfortably. The girl seemed to realize she was being rude and blushed. "Sorry I've just heard so much about you. I'm Hermione Granger by the way."

Harry got the message and within several minutes Hermione was sitting beside Draco her stuff stowed away. "What houses do you think you'll be in? I think Ravenclaw sounds nice and so does Gryffindor. Hufflepuff doesn't seem bad either.
Draco snorted. "Slytherin. Everyone in my family is one." He looked at Harry. "What about you Harry?"
The Animagus looked up studying his godson's face curious. Harry hadn't said what house he wanted to be in. It was a long moment before he spoke."I think I want to be in Gryffindor. My mom and dad were both Gryffindors."
Sirius licked his face in approval and Harry smiled hugging his neck. The compartment fell silent as Hermione pulled out a book and Draco settled down for a nap. Harry starred out the window and Sirius gave Draco a look and deciding that he wasn't likely to do anything on the Hogwarts Express he allowed his head to fall on Harry's leg and closed his eyes.

"I can't believe I birthed such an insufferable wrench of a son. There must have been some mistake since I could never create such scum. If I had known what you would turn out to be I would have drowned you like the miserable runt you are. But being the wonderful woman I am I shall give you one chance Sirius. Prove to me your worthy of carrying this families name. Take the Dark Mark. Join the Dark Lord. He will bring our family greatness."
His Gryffindor spirit thrashed at the very thought of becoming a Death Eater. "I would rather die!"
"No, Sirius you will wish for death but that gift will not be given." With only cold hatred in her eyes she raised her short black wand and screamed. "Crucio!"
He didn't remember screaming only the sensation as if his nerves were being thrown in fire and the fire was being fed acid. Again and again the curse was preformed on him until his tongue was a bloody lump of flesh in his mouth and his lips were torn beyond recognition. His throat was raw and blood rain down his arms from the deep groves his nails had carved in his skin. His whole body was bruised and bloody from thrashing. Yet the torture continued until a voice shouted something and Sirius managed to claw his eyes open far enough to see his mother grin savagely and turn her wand on someone else. Even if he could have moved it was to late. The spell struck the teenage boy in front of him and Sirius yelled in fear as James crumbled crying out.
Blood poured from his mouth and his whole body ached. Part of him registered that he was lying on a vibrating rumbling floor with his head cradled in someone arms. Other hands were holding him down and he could hear sobbing. Weakly he forced his eyes open and blinked as his eyes adjusted and his head stabbed with pain. Emerald green eyes filled with tears met his view and Sirius whined.
"What happen did he have a seizure?" Draco asked his voice sounding on the verge of panicking and Sirius vaguely realized he was the one holding him down.
Someone most likely Hermione stroked his back. "I don't think so. I think he had a really bad nightmare. Was he abused before you got him Harry?"
At the word abuse Harry flinched but shrugged. "No clue he just showed up one day."
The aches were fading as Sirius's body registered that it wasn't being tortured and slowly all but his tongue and a few bruises seemed healed. He squirmed and Draco let him sit up though the boy's hands hovered ready to restrain him again if he started thrashing again. Harry hugged his neck as soon as he managed to stagger upright and he gave himself a good shake to throw of the remains of the dream or rather memory. What part is worse? He wondered. Getting tortured by my dear old mum or seeing James get hit with the Cruciatis protecting me?
Seeing that the trio were on the verge of panic Sirius nuzzled their faces even Draco's seeing as the kid had tried to help him. Padfoot stuck his tongue out so he could see it and was annoyed to see a deep gash right over the mess of scar tissue at showed where he'd nearly bitten it off during the real version. Hermione took notice. "Hang on I think I have something in my bag that will help him." She climbed on the seat to reach her trunk and rummaged around for several minutes before coming back with a small jar the smelled like rotten fruit.
"Its a mixture of willow, mint, essence of murlap, and some other things that are suppose to heal a cut. Draco you hold him and Harry get his mouth open so that I can put some on."
Before Sirius could react he'd be seized firmly by the collar and Harry was prying his jaws open. Realizing the it wouldn't have looked very dog like if he complied Sirius squirmed and tried to pull his jaw away. Hermione dropped a syringe full on his wound and he yelped pulling away as the wound burned before a cooling sensation spread over it. When he stuck his tongue out again only an angry red line remained. The medicine didn't just stop at his tongue it raced through his body clearing up the headache and removing the aches falling of the seat had given him. Healed he turned his attention to fretting over Harry who was wiping the tears from his eyes looking embarrassed. Draco patted him on the back and Sirius covered his face with dog slobber.
"Its okay to cry mate. I was about to and he tried mauling me earlier. That was one of the scariest things I've ever scene."
Harry nodded and threw a weak smile at his friend before hugging Sirius tightly. "Don't ever scare me like that again Paddy."
Sirius gave a dogish grin at the nickname. I won't Prongslet.
Draco and Hermione exchanged glances and before Sirius could run the two other children hugging his neck along with Harry. Hey I didn't call for a group hug! Do I look like a stuffed animal to you guys? Your squishing me. Get off. I will bite! But no one seemed to care what he said. So he settled for glaring at the floor grumbling.
The hug ended when the food trolley rolled up and the three friends ran up to buy sweets coming back with their arms overloaded and their money bags considerably lighter. Harry took out Sirius's collapsible bowl from his backpack and poured pumpkin juice in it. Sirius lapped it up grateful to get the disgusting medicine taste from his mouth and then proceeded to steal a pastry from Draco and devour it.
Harry opened a chocolate frog and seemed surprise when a card fell out.
"There's one in every frog. A lot of people collect them." Draco explained. "Who'd you get?"
"Dumbledore." Harry showed the card and Sirius's hackles went up. He growled at the picture of the old wizard before sulking over to Hermione who fed him more of her food.
The rest of the train ride was uneventful with Draco teaching Harry to play exploding snap while Hermione returned to her book. Though tired Sirius didn't allow himself to fall asleep choosing instead to pace around the compartment.
As darkness fell the trio changed into their robes and Harry fussed over Sirius straightening his collar and making sure the backpack was carefully packed and tied to him. As the train pulled into the station the trio grabbed their belongs and joined the mass of leaving students. Harry winced at the close proximity and tightened his grip on Sirius's collar, smacking Hedwig's cage into his side,who in turn was trying to watch Hermione and Draco who were just in front of them. He had a feeling Harry would want to stick close to his new friends. As they exited a voice Sirius had been hoping not the here rang out. "First years over here! First years!"
Harry froze and threw him a scared look his emerald green eyes clearly begging to not be made to go towards Hagrid and Sirius was very tempted to sneak Harry into one of the carriages. He would probably be safer with threstals then the half giant. But before Harry or Sirius could sneak off Draco had turned around having deposited his luggage in the pile they were being direct to leave it in. "Come on Harry!"
Harry left Hedwig and his trunk and quickly he grabbed for Sirius's collar as the black dog tensed ready for a fight. Hagrid look over the heads of the first years but he quickly turned away at the sight of the two. Without a word Harry climbed into one of the boats with Draco and Hermione Sirius jumping in after them.
Hermione started a string of facts about everything from the spell enchanting the boats to move to the magical qualities of the giant squid that lived in the lake. Sirius and Harry exchanged glances while Draco eyed the water like swimming to the castle might have been a better option. Finally he reached over and clamped his hand over her mouth. "Granger shut up."
Hurt flashed in the brown eyes and Hermione scooted as far from him as she could in the small boat starring at the dark water. Sirius growled low in his throat and leaned forward to nuzzle her shoulder in comfort. She smiled at him slightly and he nudged her head to get her to look up. She gasped and Harry and Draco followed her gaze starring up in wonderment as Hogwarts became visible. Sirius smiled remembering his first sight of the castle sitting beside James.
As the boats docked Sirius jumped off first allowing the pups to steady themselves against him. The first years stuck together in a close bunch all trying to not lead the group. Sirius took matters into his own paws. Pushing Harry in front of him and putting his head on Harry's back and shoving him along so his godson was leading the group. A few people giggled but then the castle doors swung open and out emerged a very familiar woman. McGonagall surveyed the students before her eyes fell upon Sirius who wagged his tail at her. She starred at him for a moment and Sirius absently wondered if she recognized him as the big black dog that was often see accompanying Lily around campus when her and James fought. Then she saw Harry and relief was evident on her face.
"Come on inside all of you." She shooed them into the hallway and Sirius found himself being clung to by Harry with Hermione holding onto his collar and even Draco had a hand on his head. Sirius allowed it all for the simple fact that he remembered his own sorting and his fear. Harry stopped in front of McGonagall forcing Sirius to sit beside him as people crowed around. The Deputy Headmistress started some speech or another when Sirius spotted a red head boy clutching a rat in his hand. Sirius starred at the rat icy fear racing though his heart. No it couldn't be. That rat was dead. Pettigrew was dead. He'd watched that traitorous bastard die. There were lots of gray rats in the world right? It had to be a coincidence. Still he placed himself between Harry and the boy as they walked into the Great Hall.
It was almost as if no time had passed since Sirius had left the school. The Great Hall looked exactly the same with the four tables. People screamed and cheered as the first years entered and Sirius's eyes went to the teacher's table and all thoughts of the rat vanished. Snape. What the hell was the Death Eater doing at Hogwarts? Maybe he was here so the students could practice hexes on. Yes, he was probably wand less and made very meek by Azkaban. Because there was no way even Dumbles would trust a Death Eater near about bunch of innocent children right?
He'd been so focused on trying to figure out why his childhood enemy was at Hogwarts that he'd totally missed the Sorting song and McGonagall began calling names. Child after child went forward until it was Hermione's turn. Sirius licked her hand while Draco and Harry gave her reassuring looks. She timidly went forward and placed the hat on her head. Nearly a minute passed before finally the hat screamed "Gryffindor!"
Sirius barked as the Gryffindor table cheered forgetting for the moment he was no longer one of them. Hermione grinned as she hurried to sit with her new housemates. More names passed before McGonagall called for Draco. He stepped forward trying to look confident but Sirius could smell his fear. Slowly Draco set the hat on his head in fell down so far that it blocked his eyes. Everyone waited as one minute passed, then two, then three. With every passing second the fear scent rolling off the boy grew worse and Sirius cursed to himself as he left Harry's side and went to Draco. A few people gasped as they realized the sheer size of him but Sirius ignored them and licked Draco's hand. Draco's finger tangled in his fur desperate for reassurance and then the hat made its decision. "GRYFFINDOR!"
Who saw that coming? Anyone? Don't you like Sirius's innocence? Snape must be there to practice hexes on not to teach. Yeah that sounds likely Paddy. Who felt bad for Sirius this chap?
Okay you know the drill. Sirius says he gets the cookies this chap and if don't say he gets them he'll just steal my laptop and change what I write.
