I break free of the tunnel out of the Whomping Willow and stagger away and out of the reach of the flailing branches.
The world is spinning with sickening speed and blood is clawing at my throat as I fall to my knees on the morning dew painted grass.
I cough bitterly, collapsing forward onto my knees with pain.
My only comfort was looking up at the sky, and being near blinded, but seeing that the full moon was gone, long gone.
Not to haunt me again until next month.

In tiger form, I walk over to Remus, look at him, then lay down, staring at him.

Ange lies down, looking at me with her bright tiger eyes.
"Hey Ange." I manage to croak, then dissolve into a fit of violent coughing.

Turning back, I pull a piece of clothe from my pocket and begin wiping away some blood. "Hey, Rem."

I can't manage to say anything else just yet, so I nod my thanks and remain silent but for my heavy laboured breathing.

I wipe all the blood from his face and pull him to his feet, slipping a baggy jacket over his shoulders. "Do you think you can walk?"

I shrug weakly. "It's a possibility." I say in the hoarse raspy voice I acquired after the full moon.

I sigh, looking at him sadly. "Alright."

"Help me, Ange." I mumble weakly, putting my arm round her shoulders so I could lean on her, in case I fell.

I wrap my arm around his waist to support him. "I gotcha."

"Thanks." I mutter, swaying slightly.

I stop and set him on the ground. "Hold on, this'll be easier." I turn back into my tiger form and lay down next to him.

"Thanks." I say again, my voice frighteningly small and quiet.

I nod then (Somehow) pull him onto my back.

I can smell her soft tigers fur and I place a gentle arm round her strong neck for support.

I stand and begin to walk towards the school at a slow pace.

"Okay," I croak softly, after a moment. "Let me try and walk again."

I nod and stop, laying down on the ground so he can get off.

I pick myself up to my knees, rest a moment, and then stagger to my feet.
My fists were clenched so tightly with pain that my knuckles were white, but I managed to drag myself forward slightly.

I walk beside him, ready to catch him if he falls.

"I don't know what I'd do without you Ange." I mutter.

Showing a sign of affection and comfort, I rub my head against his hand.

I stroke her head softly, as I limp heavily up to the castle.

I follow Remus out of the Whomping Williow and change back into my human form to try and help him but Angela had already sorted that out. "Alright Moony?" I ask quietly nursing a deep gash on my arm.

I nod tiredly. "You?"

"Of course, nothing could take me down." I said confidently and grinned.

"I hate your confidence." I mutter. "Please tell me I didn't do that to you." I say softly, nodding towards the blood trickling down his arm from a deep gash.

"It's not as bad as it looks, i can barely feel it." I smile and wipe some of the blood off.

I look at him doubtfully.
"Sure about that?" I cough.

"I'm sure." I said hiding a wince as i moved my arm. "And if it scars i'll be even more sexy." I smirk.
