A sadden Heart

[Sirius LeMour]

Sirius came out of the guitar shop; he was in need of news strings. His old guitar was sounding out of tune and it usually meant he needed to get new ones. But he didn’t shop around New Zealand; for the most part he got all his music interest in England. Where he was use to getting all sorts of items when he was younger, remembering the times when his father had brought him a violin for his first instrument. Later on it turn into a guitar when he was old enough too decided on his own and his parents had no say into what he liked.

Those days were still engraved into his memories; it made him sad just thinking about his parents. No matter how bad their relationship had been astray Sirius would never forget them, especially his father who had been a good man. Always trying to do right for his family and the world. Greater length to give the last of his own, but their lives were cut shortly when someone had to kill them all. And the killer still let loose…..

Sirius kept walking the silence streets when he heard a sudden apparating of a person nearby. He was about to just keep going when he heard a female cries, the cries nearing in the alleyways. He couldn’t put himself to keep going, instead he stop to look into the alleyways seeing a shadow figure gloom over darkness. “Someone in there? Are you alright?” he asked the figure.

A sudden departure of no reason..That's what Irene had in mind as she remembered the break up scene which is still fresh on her mind..Everyhting is now over between her and Jake..He said that he doesn't love her but it takes months for him to figure it out..And right after what happen between them..

That was the exact moment where she decided to leave Durmstrang..After all,she had just been accepted to Auror training and she had just graduated..With herself on nothingness,Irene thought of anyplace where she could feel safe again..

Irene had just apparated into an empty alleyway..When her feet had settled on the ground,she let loose another round of fresh tears and sobs..She gave herself away,knelt on her knees and almost attempt to wrap herself with her arms..She seems to be alone and yet she felt an assuring calm of prescence nearby..She let her cloak slipped from her slender body revealing the soft silk of her dress and her snowy white complexion when sher heard someone called out,“Someone in there? Are you alright?” She glanced at the figure which is a shadow to her since he or she stood out the light..With voice quivering,she answered,"W-ho's there??",she attempted to stand again when her weight gave out from exhaustion and pain which she felt from within..She gasped and let out a sob again..

Sirius concluded right away it was a woman crying, consume under pain. He step into the entrance of the alleyways, his racer jacket cover his torso. "Excuse me miss?" he spoke again with his British accent that was slowly disappearing into a plain accent. Moving around so much did that to you. Even if so Sirius will never forget the type of person he was. He stayed true to himself, poor or rich. In his case poor since all his wealth was gone and the little money that he made was always gone by the second day of getting it. Old bills pile up so was his family funeral barring place. He was still paying for that.

"Miss don't think this is the right place to shed some tears" he said this confuse. Alleyways such as these one weren't always safe. For a girl so young and fragile to be crying didn't make enough sense. He decided to be helpful since he do help others at Hogwarts. More like assist in anyways he can. "You from around here? A Little lost?"

 

[Irene Holland]

Irene cried in pain..A pain that no wounds nor spell has ever caused her..A guy steeped out into the alleyway,his voice assuring making her feel safe despit alleyways would sometimes and oftentimes be the place of crimes and deaths..She asked to be transported somewhere safe and she reached there..

She had decided to apparate to New Zealand without having to confront the guy yet she was already too weak to manage another apparition and the guy wants to help her even comfort her at the very least..Whispering in her own British accent which is quite audible because of the tears,she answered.."Yeah,uhmm..Im not lost..I know this place like the back of my hand..",she gasped and sunk lower to the ground.."I'm from here and about to travel to New Zealand for a training..Sorry to...bother you..",she apologised..She was almost on the edge of admitting her pain to a total stranger..

 

[Sirius LeMour]

Sirius awkwardly step forward again. The ground in these parts were fill with broken glass and a smell so rancid you wouldn't even let a muggel dog come in here if it was up to you to decided. He felt the sole of shoes scrape the ground, his arms still at his side. Sirius wasn't fully convince this girl was okay. Crying and sinking into the ground like she had displayed made him think she needed help. "Your no bother" he said as he crouch down besides her. "If anything you need assistance" he sounded like he was back at Hogwarts again. Difference is that Sirius wasn't barking at any students, he wasn't dragging them to detention. Difference was, Sirius attempted to comfort some strange girl he hardly ever knew.


"Come I don't think you fit well in these parts" he scoop her up without hesitating. His father taught him well growing up, they had been wealthy but not spoil. 'You will never know what can happen if the wealth is gone and you are falling on your own', was best that describe his father words. He was right, now that Sirius was poor he understood completely. Sirius walk out of the alleyways with the girl in his arms, he apparate them both towards England, St.Mungos. Appearing in the waiting room, he slip her down on a chair. He ask for nurse attention, they had told him in as soon as they can. Sirius walk back to the girl and sat across from her. "What were you doing in there?"

 

[Irene Holland]

Irene heard the man stepped forward..Although she wasn't supposed strangers immediately,the thought of having to defend herself infront of him seems funny..Hearing his shoes scrape the ground,Irene just only knew that the ground she knelt in was full of broken glasses..She felt for his legs and her hand came away wet..Blood..,she thought.. "Your no bother" he said as he crouch down besides her. "If anything you need assistance" ,he said,offering his assistance..Irene's vision slightly dimmed as she made no answer to the man's offer.."Uhmmm..",she just mumbled..

"Come I don't think you fit well in these parts" he scoop her up without hesitating,and just then Irene felt herself gave away just a pair of strong arms scooped her up..She just let herself depend on his hold as she finally succumb to unconsciousness..She half felt him walked out of the alleyway and apparated..Moments later,she stirred slowly..She was just being slipped into a chair and she leaned her head against the wall behind her..She heard him asked for nurse's attention and sat across her..Just then she now noticed that they are now in St. Mungo's.."What were you doing in there?",he asked..Irene looked up and found herslef gazing into a pair of eyes that speak concern and at the same time,mystery.."I..uhmm..I apparated from Durmstrang..",she stammered,"I just thought of bringing myself to..",she trailed off,remembering the exact words she thought..Take me..Take me somewhere I will never get hurt again..

Before he could say anything, healer walked over towards the two persona. The healer ask several questions, like how she was feeling, is there anything bothering. Sirius just sat there listening, he didn't know the woman, he didn't even know her first name. Sirius came to mind in just leaving her in the care of the healer but he waited anyways. They escorted the girl to a nearby room and perform several test on. They made sure she wasn't in harm, Sirius stayed waiting. Hours passed, it was around 2 am when they were finally done. Sirius was still waiting but he was writing a letter to a friend of his that lived nearby. He wasn't going to leave till the girl had some place to stay, somewhere safe at least.

 

[Irene Holland]

Irene looked up when a healer approached them..She asked several questions..How she was hurt??What did she feel??Any injuries??Irene just shook her head,all the time her right hand seem to be squeezing tight close to her heart..How could I tell them that I was hurt emotionally??That no healer could heal me??,she thought..She glanced sideways to the stranger beside her who made no word nor move..

Just then,the healers gently escorted her to a room for tests..Irene looked back at the man who was left seated there..Her eyes show fright,she was afraid she would be hurt further..There,they performed complex magic on her and could not find anything that may cause her distress..After what seem like forever,Irene emerged and was relieved to find him still waiting..She approached him and sat silently beside him..She just glanced at him,writing a letter to someone..She then noticed a crumpled paper on her hand..She forgot what it was but did not make any move on opening it to know what it contains..

 

[Sirius LeMour]

The letters wasn't complete by the time the girl had came out. She seem emptied and unaffected by the world around her. Sirius stop and vanish the letter away. The healers wanted to speak to him. He stood up slowly and walk away to conversate with them. Nothing. Nothing showed up and nothing was harming the girl in anyways. He had figure out her name by saying he was a friend of her relative. He had to lie so that least he could take her somewhere safe. When the healer were done discussing with him, Sirius went right back to the girl. "Irene..." he spoke ominously so that she could hear Sirius. "Do you have family or friends? Anywhere close by so I can take you there for the night? I'm not leaving you alone" he promise to himself he wouldn't. If she said no, he would have to take her to his friend's flat. Least she be safe there and he could figure out what's wrong with her.

 

[Irene Holland]

Irene was still looking at her hands when she noticed the stranger stood up and talked with the healers..Her eyes followed him as stood there and then made his way back to where she is..Shifting her eyes into a blank wall,she didn't noticed him spoke to her until he mentioned her name.."Irene..." he spoke ominously so that she could hear Sirius. "Do you have family or friends? Anywhere close by so I can take you there for the night? I'm not leaving you alone",he said which made Irene turned to face him..She just shook her head and handed him the letter,hoping this would explain everything he needs to know..Her right hand still clutch her chest..
