Chapter 12
"this is so darn stupid.." Sirius' voice echoed throughout the empty grimmaulds palace, It was dark. He could barely make out anything— No, He couldn't make out anything at all.
"yeah, But it's the perfect time to check this out..." Replied Regulus, Rummaging through the closet of the dark room.
Was this dangerous? Yeah, Probably. If Walburga, Orion or Kreacher caught them, It was time out.
After Aralias funeral (just this morning), Walburga and Orion had been really busy. The perfect opportunity to fish this diary out..
They had been looking for a very specific diary, And regulus would not rest till he had found it. Sirius tagged along for the heck of it.
While wildly moving his hands around the closet since it was way to dark to see anything, He felt a leather texture brush against his fingers. Immediately, Regulus grasped it and stood up.
"Found it?" Said Sirius with a raised eyebrow, Though regulus could not see that due to the absolute dark.
"Yeah.. come on, Let's leave before we get caught." And so they did, With Sirius clutching his other hand and dragging them both out, Since the rooms of the children were next to each other, On the second floor, They didn't have to part ways until there.
"Ok then, Hide the book in a good place." Warned Regulus' older brother, The younger nodded his head.
"Right."
"Good night, Reggie."
"Night."

"I swear, We are totally safe!" Azrael sighed, They had managed to make Sidus sit down and stop trying to hex them into oblivion, Not that he could..
They had left Severus' room to let the boy sleep, Now down in the way too large living room. In eirans own humble thoughts, the room was way too big, It could fit an army in there. Why so big? Who made these rooms? What did they have in mind? The Roman empire? Why so dark? Did they think the people had night vision? Eiran might, But he wasn't sure if all wizards and witches did. Maybe they did, Maybe they didn't, Who was he to know?
"i simply do not believe you, Flying angel cosplayer and demon counterpart." Sidus barked out, Eiran rolled his eyes at that, Sidus was a wizard, Shouldn't this shit be normal?
Well, No it wasn't, If you took normal wizards and witches as examples, But normal is boring!
"Will you just listen?—" Azrael cried out, And was, just like the last two hours, Cut off by Sidus.
"I know damn well what you are, Two pedophile creeps out to get my son, The only reason I haven't turned you two into a bat is because Severus is, currently asleep." The man crossed his arms, Sidus was not one to listen, And it killed Azrael inside.
"We wouldn't be able to get in with all that magic security you got going on anyways." Scoffed out Eiran, And shrugged when Azrael shot him a glare and Sidus a chilling head turn.
Gaze turning back to Sidus, The angel internally ugly cried, Because, Why was life so harsh to him? Maybe, Azrael should just spit it out already.
"Oh fine! I'll tell you! We are no pedophiles! I am...a guardian angel! And eiran is uhh— guardian demon? I don't know. But really! And Severus is a reincarnated kid! I have proof! I swear! I swear on the holy name of heavens above! I swear on all my hair! I swear on the tears of—"
Yeah, He did spit it out, Forkin' finally. It was a heavy secret to hold.
Eiran rolled his eyes at Azrael's monologe, boring. "Oh my god, we get it man. Look, Sidney, or whatever your name is. I don't know about the fatass angel, But I have zero proof. After all, we're the guardians. I am just a lowly guardian of a demon, Azrael just a guardian angel. Maybe their ranking is different or something, who knows? I can't prove you nothin', It's not in my hands. I can't travel between worlds, or anything."
"What is this? The speech of independence? You all talk too much, Useless. Severus is a reincarnated adult, you say? You think I believe you? You believe correct."
"Huuu....how do we prove it?—" Azrael lowered his head, before snapping it up, wings puffing all of a sudden. "Wait a minute, you believe us?—"
"Yes, Severus was never normal, I suppose this explains all that behavior.." Nodded Severus' now all of a sudden very smart father, Hand below his chin thoughtfully.
"Now scram, it's morning. The sun is rising. My wife wakes up around this time, and the house elves start cooking."
Ok, Sidus would always remain a hot headed man.
"Jeez, your as bad as I, and that's no light insult, I'm a demon. You gotta control 'em issues, You sound like a wife beater." Scoffed eiran.
Azrael had the pure audacity to scowl, and lying about having prove, as an ANGEL! "Hey! He loves his wife, I've seen it."
"Whateverrr." Mumbled eiran, Before a loud poof, and they were gone.
That was perfect timing, For just then did Eileen's form appear climbing down the stairs. She stopped midway, staring at Sidus.
"Who was that, honey?" Mumbled the sleepy woman, Rubbing her eyes and yawning a bit.
"No one of importance, don't you worry, love. Forget the house elves, today, I wanna cook you some food." Sidus shook his head, standing up from the sofa to walk over to Eileen.
"Huh?— well, sure..Just tell them not to cook anything, I suppose?"
"Right. Come on Eileen dear, have some water."
"Ah, You're such a rat of sunshine."
"Rat?—"
"what?"
"Eileen, Did you just call me a rat?"
"No, I called you a ray of sunshine. Check out your ears today, Sidus."
"Right.."
Why, In dear god, Eileen acting possessed these days? She called Sidus a rat almost every minute now! He couldn't be hearing things..
Could he?
__________
"and that's why it's fucking stupid." Was the conclusion Sidus came to, Eileen just scowled. They had been sitting in the dining room, Eating the breakfast Sidus made for Eileen, Severus still deep in slumber.
He hadn't told Eileen about it yet...the reincarnation shit. Did he actually believe it? Fuck no. He just didn't want Eileen to be worried, And it seemed the only way to make those creeps go away.
The woman herself shook her fork, Pointing it at Sidus, and swallowing the bacon before speaking. "Your face is fucking stupid! No cursing in this house!"
"You just cursed!"
"I do what I want!"
"I feel a disobedient kid!" Now, Sidus was also scowling, Hands crossed Infront of his chest. Eileen just rolled her eyes and took a bite out of the egg, this time.
"You are also acting like one. It's not stupid that you think you are hearing things, but it is stupid that you think I'm calling you a rat. I would never! That's too light of a way to put you. If I cursed, I'd curse properly."
"Women seriously scare me." Mumbled Sidus, and Eileen snorted.
"As they should, remember your place, Kiddo."
"You sound like a pedo—"
"Oh, Back at the matter at hand! We should seriously go to a therapist, Just get checked. Don't wanna raise Severus while being schizophrenic, Do you?" Eileen spoke, Half heatedly, As she was more focused on her food.
"I'm not schizophrenic! See, this is why I didn't tell you!"
Eileen's eyes flew wide at that, snapping her head towards Sidus.
"Ok, ok! I was just joking!your perfect, Hun. Just right, No hallucinations would ever stop my love for you— not that your hallucinating!"
Sidus grumbled, Eileen took things way too lightly, Seriously, It was a serious matter! But he wants going to some therapist, They were waste of money. Did useless things and gave useless diseases.
It was but a money scam, Evil. It pissed Sidus off to no end, Therapists. Call him old fashioned, But he was simply spouting out the pure, hard, truth.
For now though, He had to discuss with Eileen this more seriously. She had to understand what Sidus did! See it from sidus' point of view already! Come on, it wasn't that hard!
"Eileen, your not listening—"
"I am!"
Sure she was. Sidus was no dumb man. Eileen was still upset about her mothers death, Given. But she was a smart woman, Mourning would do no good. Yale did that enough for all of them.
Sidus didn't care about any deaths! This was heavy enough! Every day would he hear a voice in his head telling him to end it all and pay for his sins and that this was not a cry for help, It was a warning—
What in the living mother of Catherine (whoever she was)? Was Sidus being possessed by some victorian religious ghost? Or some horror movie maker? Seriously?
Whopping newly invented cheese burgers, Sidus was not falling to some cheesy horror movie addict! Weak! He was a man of culture, and he ought to deal with it the old fashioned way.
Whatever the old fashioned way was, Sidus would ask his mother or something, tonight, Eileen was right. He didn't want to raise Severus like this, it would negativity impact the boys childhood, ONLY childhood, because he damn well wasn't reincarnated.
Stupid, what did those pedophiles take him for? A fool? They ought to learn to find better excuses, really.
