Remus was besides himself in worry. Two days it had been since Sirius had headed off to find plants for some potions, and he had never returned. In panic, Remus had stormed to the map to fold it out, seeing the names of the people in the castle move slowly around. He searched and searched the tiny name, but he could not find Sirius anywhere. He picked up his wand, and with dry lips mumbled. "Point me." But the wand did not move. Then it began spinning and spinning fast, before it lifted off his palm, to Remus's big surprise. Then it dropped to the ground.
He knew that meant 'nowhere' Stunned, he picked up and thought about James. "Point me." he whispered, only to have the same happen.
Remus stumbled over to a chair and slumped down, his hands in front of his eyes, and he began crying.
Barty was in a daze as he walked up to the door of the cabin where Remus and Sirius lived. He knew that his cousin would know what to do. That they would be able to find Cia. Barty knocked on the door and listened for movement inside. When he heard the crying, he tried the knob to see if the door was unlocked.
Remus looked up hopeful at the knock, and he rushed to the door, opening it, stopping and staring for a long time. "Barty." he said, his voice raspy from tears. "Barty, have you seen Sirius?" he was trying to keep his composure.
Barty jumped a bit when the door came open and he just stared at Remus for a moment. He shook his head.
"No. I haven't seen him." He blinked a couple of times and then looked down at the bloody cloth still clutched in his hand before looking back at Remus.
"Have you seen Cia?" He ran his fingers through his hair, not even realizing that there was blood on them as he did so. His eyes widened a bit as he had a thought.
"Maybe Sirius went looking for Cia.....they could be together..."
