Remus Lupin was also nearby. He was wrapped in his tatty and fraying cloak, walking between the trees of the forest out the out skirts, close to the grounds.

He shuddered in the cold as the wind swept through, Winter was on its way and there had already been some snow fall. He sneezed but kept on walking, trying to watch out for the hidden twigs and roots of the trees, not wanting to land on his face in the snow.

Remus looked up as he heard the girls voice, and saw the wand pointed straight at him. Remus looked more worn down, pale, unshaven and had more greys. He kept his cloak around himself, hiding away, but he didn't take his wand out in reponse. ".. Remus Lupin.." he muttered through chattering teeth "I suggest you put your wand down.."

"Because I am making sure there is nothing that shouldn't be here is here so close to the school.. and what are you doing here? you should be in the grounds, it's not safe for students to be so close to the forest, you are lucky I am not a professor anymore.." he said through narrow slitted eyes.

"I doubt that.. and I have friends in that castle I could tell, you would soon be dragged back there, so don't sneer at me!" he barked back at her, clearly not in the mood to be frowned upon. "There are plenty of creatures that can come out of this forest and attack you or worse!"

Remus strolled after her and grabbed her arm and yanked her back forcefully "There are not puppies! they are monsters! beasts, one of the most feared creatures in our world and we do not need anymore of them!" he shouted, going red in the face "I am not going to let you just waltz in there for you to be killed or bitten! even if you are acting like a stubborn brat, I wouldn't want my curse on anyone!"

Remus gitted his teeth "I don't care who you know and what you can do.. you can still be attacked and killed, so don't give me any of that smart mouth!" He pulled on her arm more to bring her closer to the grounds, most of the students had returned to the castle by this time "Get back to the Castle or I will personally drag you back.. and I mentioned before.. I was a professor.. well when I resigned.. it was because parents wouldn't want me there teaching their children... it ruins your life.."

Shadow walked up seeing this heated talk.
"Hello remus....Harriate"
shadow looked at them sensing the wolfin remus she though he would sense hers.

He looked around hearing Shadow. He then looked back to Harriate before
returning his glare to Shadow "What are you doing here.. doesn't anyone
listen to the rules.. the dangers!"

He looked back to Harriate, his temper reaching breaking point "JUST GET BACK TO THE CASTLE, NOW!!!"

Remus grabbed the collar of her unitform and pulled her, his shoes slipping a little on the wet and icy ground. He had his other arm holding the cloak around himself, Remus at this point was seeing red, close to breaking point....

"Nice to see you to remus and im not a student any more i truned 26 in july"
she sighed softly "MOONY Put that student Down for heavens sake. and i teach if you must know"

Remus looked back to Shadow, his with his jaws locked together tightly ".. She needs to go back, its getting late.. and you can't be a teacher.. what of?" he asked still in the process of trying to get Harriate out from the forest.

Harriate growled struggling to get free.
'Let go of me you over grown pup.' She growled through gritted teeth.

Remus glared down at Harriate and yanked her again ".. don't you ever
insult me.." he threated, fighting the urge to get more agressive...and
as it got darker it was getting less likely he could stop himself

Shadow looked at her then remus "I teach potions now remus and your right its late but she has legs she can walk."
She looked at her "Dont call him a pup" she growled

".. she can walk but she doesnt want to go.. otherwise I wouldn't be treating her like a five year old!" he snapped back as Shadow, she was clearly not helping his mood ".. and I am not a old man.." he growled now looking down at the black hair girl he was grabbing hold of..
