A long walk to the Vet.......

[Kingsley Shacklebolt]

Kingsley felt his grip become loose on the leash. "Remus!" he huffed.

[Sirius Black]

Hearing Kingsley mutter for Remus, Snuffles pulled even harder, feeling the leash slip in Kingsley's hands gave the dog hope. Perhaps he wouldn't die today.

[Kingsley Shacklebolt]

Kingsley grinned at his genius. When he felt the dog pull his hardest, Kingsley let go off the leash with a resulting smack! "Haha, Snuffles!"

[Sirius Black]

Snuffles didn't let falling deter him. Within moments he had hauled himself up and was sprinting towards Frank, panting with glee as he heard Kingsley yelling at him.

[Kingsley Shacklebolt]

"asshole!" Kingsley yelled after the dog. Breaking into a sprint, he followed after.

[Sirius Black]

Snuffles heard Kingsley's yells start to become louder and louder. He realized that Kingsley was gaining up on him! Curse him!

Snuffles sprinted straight past Frank and into the milling crowd, making his way as quickly as possible towards Hogwarts. That way he could transform back, and Kingsley and Remus would have no choice but to give up.

[Remus Lupin]

Laughing with glee, Remus dashed madly after Sirius, shoving other random students away, ignoring their shouts.

When he had a clear shot at the dog, he pulled his wand out with a florish and pointed, shouting,"LEVICORPUS!"

[Frank Longbottom]

Frank watched, somewhat worried. "Um... are you sure that's a good idea?" he called, running after Remus, Kingsley, and Snuffles.

[Sirius Black]

Snuffles, unfortunately, was in mid-air when he was hit by the spell. His legs locked underneath him, and he was hurled to earth without any landing gear. Snuffle's stiff body rolled several times, before stopping at the outer fringe of Hogsmeade.

The black dog whimpered. So close, yet so far away

((Which is a really fine song, if you so wish to listen to it. By U2, I think))

[Remus Lupin]

Remus ran up beside the now sad looking dog, bending over he asked, "Guess what? Thaaat's right! Time for the vet!"
He pointed his wand and levitated the dog towards the vet, which just happened to be across the street.

[Frank Longbottom]

Frank winced. "SORRY SNUFFLES, BUT IT'S PROBABLY FOR YOUR OWN GOOD!" he yelled.

[Sirius Black]

A pitiful whimper erupted in the back of Snuffle's throat, drawing sympathetic glances from the students that had begun to crowd around the commotion.

[Remus Lupin]

Remus coughed, made the dog move faster as he changed his direction and started to hurrying out of Hogsmeade, avoiding the looks from the crowd.

He glared down at the dog,"You just had to do that."

When he had reached a fair distance where no one could see them, he released the dog from the spells, grinning as the dog fell few feet to the ground.
"Mind telling me why you were in the Three Broomsticks as Snuffles?" he asked.

[Sirius Black]

Sirius lifted himself off the ground, dusting his trousers of stray grass.

"Well, last time I went to Hogsmeade, I got drunk and tried to kiss Madam Rosmerta. Of course, you weren't there, you were probably holed up in the library, trying to study for the end-of-the-year exams," Sirius smiled ruefully, "And, naturally, the teachers banned me from Hogsmeade."

He raised his hands as if he were surrendering. "And that's my story. Now, do you mind telling me why you raised such a bloody ruckus," Sirius crossed his arms and looked at him pointedly, "You didn't have to use the V-E-T, you know." He shuddered, the name gave him more fear than You-Know-Who's, especially since their last incident with them...

[Remus Lupin]

"I causes such a "bloody ruckus" because people were starting to stare and wonder how students got a large black dog. I heard Severus asking questions. Be more careful." He shook his head and turned around to head back to Hogsmeade. Looking back he said, "You might want to actually use James' cloak, which I know you have in your pocket."
