This story is modeled after Cased Closed or Detective Conan Edogawa to some.

Enjoy!

Lupin was huddled over his desk in his one room apartment on the second floor of a one floor building, he lived in the attic. He poured over his notes then finally raised his head up and looked at his spice/potion ingredient rack. Taking the bottle of Thresal blood he put 3 drops into his cauldron. A turquoise mist rose over the rim and vanished.

Taking his free hand, that wasn't stirring, Lupin picked up his glass of vodka and chugged what was left then refilled the glass sloshing it around the table, droplets of alcohol filling everywhere.

"I think it's done now." Lupin laid the ladle down, picked up a vile, and dipped it into the vessel filling it up, giving it a cork, and placing it into a cabinet filled with even more vile's with labels.

For two years Remus Lupin had been looking for a cure for lycanthrope. Testing it all on him self. Many times he thought he had found it, but it ether the process would speed up or slow it down only by a little.

Remus filled a glass with the purple liquid, gave it a questioning look, and then downed it in one mouth full. Licking his lips he found it was quite delicious. The clock glowed green with the numbers 12:48. He let out a yawn and decided to retire to his cozy bed in the corner. The full moon would be in 4 nights and he needed every minute of sleep he could get.

It was happening again, the dream.

Lupin was in a field behind his house, he walked towards a large lake near the forest. He leaned over to look at his reflection. A small boy of 6 looked back up at him smiling.

He raised his head up and looked across the lake. Two large red eyes stared back at him. He waved at the creature. Who then leapt from the shadows and made its way around the lake towards him.

He couldn't move, he didn't know why, but their eyes never lingered from each other.

"Remus no! Remus hurry into the house!" his mother called from the back door through a mesh of a scene wire, her face in shadows, only her eyes could show the true horror of what was to happen.

Remus snapped to attention and ran for the door, the creature right on his heels.

He dived for the dog door and was able to get half way through., His arms were outstretch towards his mother for help.

The creature clamped his teeth onto Lupin's leg and started to drag him back out. He cried to his mother who was crying, trying to pull him back in with sweaty palms. Her hands slipped and she fell backwards, hitting her head on the table.

In slow motion he was dragged out by the creature. He couldn't find his voice, he couldn't see, couldn't hear. Just then from the darkness a pair of large ruff hands pulled him from the creatures grasp...

Lupin woke in a cold sweat. No matter how many time he had that dream it never seemed to get easier. He walked blindly to the kitchen sink and splashed his face with cold water. Taking a deep breath he turned back towards his bed. Half way there a sharp pain hit him in his chest, then something jabbed him in the back. He fell to his knees clutching his stomach. A surge of pain ran up and down his spine simultaneously.

"oh no." Lupin sputtered. "I must have......... speed up the......... process!"

Lupin staggered to the door and sealed it with magic. When he first moved in he had put special seals over everything, the door so he couldn't get out or anybody could come in, sound proofing, and movement proofing.

Before he could take another step he collapsed on the floor, his head felt like it was about to explode. Soon he was unconscious.
