《Camille Lupin the Unicorn》Telling Remus the Truth
Advertisement
Camille's POV
"Peter is alive, Sirius is innocent. I've been helping him since Halloween, trying to catch Peter so that we can turn him in and clear Sirius' name" I tell Remus.
"He still turned Lily and James over to Voldemort Camille" he tells me a gentle tone.
"No, he didn't" I tell him. "He was never their secret keeper, he convinced them to change to someone else. Knowing Voldemort would come after him. So they choose Peter. He turns them in and then blew up the street faking his own death. To frame Sirius" I explain.
"If that is true, why didn't he tell you twelve years ago" he asks me.
"Because he thought you were the mole" I tell him sadly. "He knew I'd never be able to lie to you, so didn't tell me. He's sorry for that by the way" I state. "Please believe me Remus" I plead.
"I do believe" he tells me and takes out an old piece of parchment from his desk draw.
"Is that the map?" I ask him surprised.
"Yes, I confiscated it from Harry before the winter break. When I confiscated is, he told me that he thought it didn't work all the time. As it showed someone he believe to be dead. It showed Peter's name Camille" he explains. "Since then I've looked at the map each night, trying to find his name. But nothing" he states.
"I doubt he's wondered far" I state. "He choose a wizard family to take him in for a reason. He wants to be close to Harry encase Voldemort returns" I tell him.
"What are you talking about?" he asks me. I take out a newspaper clipping of the Weasleys in Egypt and show it to him.
"The biggest part they found of Peter was his finger. Look at the rat's front paw" I tell him.

"He's missing a toe" he states.
"Yes and I spoke to Molly. He's been in their family for twelve years. No common garden rat lives that long. Their maximum lifespan is 3 years. He has no magical talents" I tell him. "Sirius saw this when the minister went to expect Azkaban. He recognized Wormtail straight away. He was the only one who knew he was alive and knew no one would believe him. So he took it on himself to kill Peter" I explain. "Though I convinced him to capture Peter and turn him in. I lost Sirius once, I wasn't going to lose him again" I tell him.
"We will catch him Camille, then you and Sirius can finally start your life together. Marry, get your dream house and start a family" he tells me.
"Actually we're already married" I tell him sheepishly. He looks at me surprised. "Lilly and James were our witnesses. It was a small interment ceremony. We didn't even get a honeymoon. We were going to tell everyone at the party twelve years ago. The party that never happened" I explain.
"Congrats" he says hugging me. "We will find Peter and make him pay for ruining all our lives" he tells me. "Then you and Sirius can have a proper ceremony. Me as best man and dad can walk you down the aisle. Mum help you get ready" he tells me smiling.
"I'd love that and so would Sirius" I tell him. "Lets look for Peter on the map" I tell him. He agrees and lays it on the table. I point my wand at it. "I solemnly swear that I am up to no good" I say and the map appears. We unfold it and begin our search for Peter Pettigrew.
(Time skip)
Remus sighs and looks at the clock. "We should call it a night" he tells me.

"But what if he appears while we sleep?" I ask him not taking my eyes off of the map.
"We won't be able to do anything half asleep" he tells me. "Go sleep and we'll study it again tomorrow" he states.
"Fine, mischief managed" I say pointing my wand at the map. It goes blank. I fold it up and put it back in his draw. I stand up and sway slightly.
"Are you ok?" Remus asks me concerned steadying me.
"Yeah, just tired" I tell him.
"You can stay here tonight" he tells me.
"No, I'll be fine" I assure him.
"Ok, if you see Sirius. Please tell him I forgive him and hope we can meet soon" he tells me. I nod my head and give him a hug goodnight. Before leaving and returning to my private chambers. I change into my pjs and brush my teeth. Before crawling into bed and calling it a night. Falling into a deep dreamless sleep.
