“Ookaay,” the caretaker muttered, walking back into the school and heading for Dumbledore’s office to report the night’s events. There was a trail of blood leading into the Forbidden Forest, along with paw prints and tufts of brown fur.

Remus, still in ’wolf form, yelped quietly as he limped along through the Forest. Red blood trailed behind him, making it clear where he had been. The full moon could be seen slightly through the boughs.

Ignoring the caretaker, Sirius began to follow the trail, convincing himself that the red liquid was not blood. "Remus?" he called tentatively, as he approached the forest, brambles beginning to cling to his legs, "Remus?"

Remus continued along his way, not sure of where he was going. His vision was doubled and fuzzy, and he couldn’t feel his leg. He yelped again, as a branch reached for him.

The yelp shot through the air, startling the third year. "Remus?!" he called, roots growing as he spoke, "Rems? Is that you?!"

Upon hearing Sirius calling, he barked. Remus tripped suddenly, and pain shot up his leg. Golden eyes closed, as he lay there on the ground.

At the bark, Sirius began to move once more, body endowed with a burst of speed. "I'm coming!" he cried, "I'm coming, Remus!"

He didn’t even feel himself change back, but at the sudden gust of cold wind, he knew. His clothes, where were they?

Sirius peered through the trees, desperate to catch a glimpse of his friend. "Remus?" he called again, willing him to answer, "Remus?"

Sirius was coming, Sirius was coming! Run, hide! His mind yelled, knowing full well he had no clothes, as they lay ripped back on the grounds. Remus just groaned.

"Remus?" Sirius's sharp hearing picked up the gentle groan and the boy stifled a laugh, "Was that you groaning? What's the matter?"

“My leg,” Remus whispered. He didn’t want to look, even though he knew he had a hole. Whoot.

Sirius peered through the cloak of darkness, searching for his friend. Finally, his eyes gradually adjusting to the change in luminosity, his gaze fell upon the fruit of his search.
Fighting with himself, ordering himself not to laugh at Remus's 'appearence' Sirius hurried over, taking care not to stumble over any roots. "Pardon? Remus, you'll have to speak a little louder!"
The third-year went to crouch down beside the naked boy. As he did so, the sight of the bullet hole rushed to meet him. Cringing, Sirius studied the wound. "Oh, Remus..." he murmured.

“Like I said: My leg,” Remus muttered. “Do you mind giving me a cloak at least?” Well, to say the least, Remus felt embarrassed.

Sirius snorted. "No!" he said, sarcasm plentiful, "I'm going to force you to limp up to the castle in the nude!" Shaking his head, he shrugged his robes off and handed them to his friend. "I won't need these. I've got my school uniform on..."
Having dropped the black garments on top of his friend, Sirius turned away, allowing Remus some privacy.
