*Sirius woke in the dead of the night with only the sounds of distant creature's outside to comfort him His sheets were all askew and his body was covered in sweat. His eyes, a blood red tinge to them, looked almost demented in the moon light as he leaned over the side of his bed, his hands holding his stomach. He gasped as he clamped his eyes shut, pain all over his body. He shook and just sat there for a moment, his eyes still shut tight as the pain seemed to capture his whole body in its grasp.*
