I Solemnly Swear That I Am Up to No Good: Sirius Black?

[alt_terry]

The Headmistress sent me out of her office. She's never done that before.

Just before she did, I heard a snatch of something she said to Madam Pomfrey. Something about Sirius Black, I think?

I saw what Mrs Lestrange wrote.

What does it mean? Anyone? The Headmistress was real stone-faced when she sent me out.

Merlin, I hope it doesn't mean they caught him.

Y'know what Sally Anne's been saying about my Mum? I think she may be right. Mum's acting dead strange tonight. And she's staring at the clock that tells whether any of us is in danger. She thinks we don't know what she's doing, but she's shouting at anyone who makes a noise, and she's told us all we have to stay inside and in the back room, but no one's allowed into the kitchen or the lounge or upstairs or anything. And she means it, too, because she went absolutely shouty crackers about an hour ago when Percy went in the kitchen to see about some tea.

I don't know if it's anything to do with Black, but there's something big happening and no mistake.

Bill showed up, after dinner, too. He's spending the night. No explanation.
