The Wizard, the Werewolf & the Pink Haired Witch

Chapter 1

It is just another Saturday evening at Grimmuald Place, everyone was sitting around the kitchen table; he looks around at the familiar faces that make up the members of The Order. He notices a certain colourful, pink haired witch was not present at the meeting. 'Mad-Eye and her must be working tonight' he thinks to himself then he looks to the other side of the table and that is when his eyes land on Mad-Eye.

It was unusual for Mad-Eye to be present at a meeting without her. When the meeting finishes and Molly starts to busy herself in the kitchen, making dinner for everyone, Remus walks over to Mad-Eye to find out where the colourful witch is.

Remus however wasn't the only one who was worried by the non-presence of the witch. Sirius also walks over to Mad-Eye. Mad-Eye turns to face the wizards and he knows what they both want to talk about. "I know what you both want to talk about; Nymphadora isn't here because she is following a lead on Greyback."

Neither Sirius nor Remus could believe what he was saying; Mad-Eye Moody a well-known and possibly the most respected Auror; would let a young auror like Nymphadora Tonks go out, ALONE, to follow a dangerous deatheater and notorious werewolf such as Fenrir Greyback.

Sirius looks at the older wizard "you let her go ALONE!" Sirius was beyond angry; his cousin Andromeda would kill him if anything happens to Nymphadora. Yes they all knew that metamorphmagus's could not get affected by lycanthropy, so Greyback could bite and scratch Tonks all he wants but because her magic was very rare, she could never turn into a werewolf.

That did not mean that Greyback or any other werewolf could not cause harm to her or treat her like a ragdoll. Sirius walks away from Mad-Eye before he harms the auror; Remus goes after Sirius to calm down his Marauder brother.

Sirius is pacing up and down the garden path, Remus places his hands on his shoulders "we have to remember that this is her job, she is good at her job. We have to believe in her and her training okay Padfoot."

Sirius looks up at him "Andy is going to kill me if anything happens to her daughter and I would not blame her. Just because she can't become a werewolf doesn't mean that they can't cause her harm, I don't want to see Nymphy coming through that front door, bruised and bloody."

Remus nods "I don't want to see that either Sirius no one here does especially Mad-Eye but this is her job, her specialty is werewolves. Who do you think was watching out for me while you were in Azkaban?"

Sirius turns to him "Nymphy was looking after you, fo for me?" Remus nods "yes I caught her a few times watching me during a full moon; it was only when she joined the order and she explained everything to me then I became grateful to her I also think the wolf was as well, he missed the company that you used to provide him, well us."

Sirius smiles and nods "it is not fair that you have to go through that all alone but you never will have to again. Nymphy and I will be here to help and keep you and of course Moony company during a full moon."

The Marauder men stay up to wait for the arrival of Nymphadora to make sure that Greyback had not hurt her badly. Remus was reading a book; Padfoot was curled up beside him with his head lying on his thigh with Remus running his hands through the black fur.

Remus and Padfoot both hear the front door lock into place, Padfoot sniffs the air then looks at Remus, and they both know it was Nymphadora. They pretend to be asleep so they don't scare her when they speak to her.

Nymphadora has her hood over her head because it was heavily raining outside, she quickly removes her heavy boots not wanting to wake everyone up but also the portrait of her dead relative.

She slowly and carefully (which was hard for a klutz like her) walks up the creaky, old staircase and heads towards the bathroom on the third floor. Harry, Ron and Hermione sleep on the second floor when they are here, Sirius and Remus sleep anywhere they like depending on the moon, leaving the third floor of the house all to her.

She closes the bathroom door and she walks over to the mirror, she finally removes her hood and straight away notices that her pink hair is now her natural brown colour which means that in fact Greyback has hurt her in some way. Metamorphmagus cannot morph when they become injured in some way, heartbroken or pregnant.

She places her wand on the edge of the bathtub, she did not notice the hand that slips in and grabs her wand. She slowly strips out of her clothes and stands in front of the mirror in just a t-shirt and her knickers. Her white t-shirt that she had stupidly worn now had patches of red on the front. She slowly lifts up her top to see the scratches on her body that have been given to her by Greyback.

She bents down and starts to run a bath for herself, she likes doing some things the muggle way and running a bath was one of those things. She however goes to grab her wand but her hand is met by air. She looks at the place that she had left her wand.

She bents down to see if her wand has rolled off the edge of the tub but when she turns around; she feels a tongue lick up the side of her face. She smiles "I didn't think anyone else would be awake." Padfoot changes into Sirius causing Nymphadora to ungracefully fall on to the hard bathroom floor with a thud.

Sirius sees the front of her white top "please tell me that is not your blood." She stands up "Sirius I swear to you, I am fine. It is only a few scratches." He points to the tub that has now filled up with water and flower scented bubbles.

She carefully slides into the tub still in her top and underwear. She wasn't going to strip naked in front of her cousin. She knows he does not go anywhere alone so she knows in a few seconds his partner in crime, Remus, would appear. The bathroom door opens, shuts and is then locked a few seconds later. She looks up and her hazel eyes meet the blue ones that belong to Remus.

Nymphadora sighs "I'm going to assume that one of you stole my wand so that I would not hex you during this 'talk' I guess we are about to have." Sirius nods "Remus has your wand and he won't be giving it back to you until the morning and you're right we are going to talk Nymphadora."
