The wolf was restless. There were four days until the next full moon, but Remus was so on edge it might as well have been moon rise in mere hours. The Summer so far had been nothing short of a panicked mess. Voldemort was back. He had attacked Harry during the final task of the Triwizard Tournament less than two months prior, and both Sirius and Remus were struggling being away from him. The ritual to bring Voldemort back into his physical body needed an unwilling blood sacrifice from Harry, and the fact that the ceremony was performed by Wormtail hit a little too close to home for the pair. They felt like they were going crazy unable to protect Harry while simultaneously dealing with residual grief from the deaths of Lily and James.
