It wasn't a place to be afraid of. Some family lived here, Harry could tell, from his quick glance around the bedroom and then down the hall. But it wasn't obvious what was going on either. Before, at Hogwarts, things had been clear. He had been dumped back into the life he had known, right where he had left off. This was different though.
And that was the only clear thought Harry had before he head a clatter and Sirius appeared. Harry blinked owlishly at him, and then they heard it.
Harry had heard a howl like that only once before.
Harry didn't have a single clue in hell what was going on, everything coming together too fast, jumbled not falling into place. But the thought of obeying his godfather's order didn't even cross his mind. He followed two steps behind Sirius, clenching the hawthorn tightly, and fell into a sprint once out the door.
He couldn't keep up with Sirius, but he could follow.
