Brave Legions of Remus, Sirius, and Liz

The moon shone brightly overhead. Its light cast a pale blue glow over the tall grass, which swayed gently in the warm, night breeze.

Sirius Black let out a long sigh as he gazed up at the stars. He lay on his back on a small raft in the middle of a large lake located deep in the forest. His clothes were soaked through from all the rain that had been falling all afternoon and his glasses were foggy from the lake's steamy heat. He was only wearing swimming trunks and his shoes had been lost somewhere in the mud along with his wand.

Sirius shivered as another gust of wind blew from across the lake. The water had always seemed so inviting and beautiful when they were children but now it was as cold as a witch's touch.

He rolled over onto his stomach and began to wriggle his way towards the edge of the raft. I'm just going to grab my wand, he thought to himself, then I'll be right back out here enjoying this beautiful evening by myself.

Sirius reached out into the mud and felt around for a few minutes before giving up. It's no use, he thought to himself, I'm not going to find it out here. He sighed again and turned back towards the lake to gather his thoughts when suddenly he heard something behind him in the darkness.

Sirius sat up with a start as someone began screaming from across the lake. What was that? And why did it sound like a woman? Sirius thought frantically to himself as he scrambled around looking for his glasses in the muddy floor of the raft. After several frantic moments he found them and put them on, only to find that everything was blurry without any light except for a strange blue glow emanating from above him and surrounding him all around. What is this? Sirius wondered silently to himself as he crawled cautiously towards one end of the raft where there seemed to be more light than anywhere else on it. Just then, he heard another shrill scream echo across the lake and suddenly remembered where he was at this moment in time: England, during Voldemort's reign of terror, searching desperately for Remus while trying to avoid capture at all costs by Snape's minions who were all too happy to turn him over or kill him themselves if they could help it.

He had been sitting alone atop an enormous hillside overlooking this very lake when suddenly...

"LIZAN!" Sirius shouted as loud as he could manage while staring at what appeared to be a bright blue light hovering over the water some hundred feet away from where he stood.

The light started moving towards him rapidly until it eventually stopped about fifty yards away from where Sirius was standing at one end of his floating island and began hovering quietly above the center of the lake again. It must have been some kind of trick of light or something caused by the moon because once Sirius got closer it didn't look anything like Lizan but more like...a gas lamp?

"What are you doing here, Sirius?" A voice called out from behind him suddenly causing Sirius to jump out of his skin! He whirled around quickly holding his wand out defensively but quickly lowered it after realizing who had addressed him so rudely! It was Remus! Standing there dripping wet but otherwise perfectly fine! No scars or ghastly appearance at all!

"I've got you laid out on my picnic blanket beneath that tree over there," Remus added helpfully pointing off into the distance behind him while walking forward towards Sirius with a towel thrown loosely around one arm!

"But what..." Sirius stammered confusedly at first but then cut himself off abruptly mid-sentence! He looked down excitedly at himself noticing that all of his injuries had miraculously disappeared! Including those nasty scars he'd carried since childhood! "How...what...when..." He gaped incredulously at Remus who smiled broadly back at him before throwing open an old trunk lying nearby full of various medical supplies inside!

"I can explain everything!" Remus said enthusiastically pulling various potions and ointments out of this magical trunk full of helpfulness before hastily applying them liberally to every inch of Sirius' body! When he was finished, Remus shared that he had learned of Sirius' predicament, managed to rescue him, and had applied healing spells while Sirius was unconscious. They enjoyed each other's company and took solace in their reunion during these dark times.

"Remus!" Sirius gasped excitedly, embracing him tightly, grateful for the extraordinary events that led to them being together again. United once more, they vowed to continue their fight against Voldemort while cherishing the moments they shared.
