Alrighty, so this is my first go at a fanfic and I hope I don't disappoint. This story adds a character to the Wizarding World. It will stay as close to canon as possible but will have to adjust a bit to the new character. This story also shows a new side to Lupin. The main character is Sirius' daughter and Lupin's Goddaughter, which also brings me to the fact that Lupin wasn't ever homeless or alone... At least not in my story... EVERYTHING in the Wizarding world belongs to the amazing, incredible JK Rowling, except of course the character I invented. The locations, people, etc. are hers and only hers. So, here goes.

Prologue:
On a dark and misty night, in Surrey, a baby boy was being taken to his Aunt and Uncle’s house. His parents had just been murdered by the greatest evil ever seen, and he was now an orphan. But this is not a story about Harry James Potter, The Boy Who Lived. This story takes place a few hours later, in Shell Cottage, where a baby girl was being transferred to her Godfather’s.
A tabby looking cat with squared markings shaping her eyes stood on the corner of Shell Cottage and Sandy Lane. She had been on that same corner for a little over an hour. Glancing around, she shivered once and then rested her eyes upon a deserted patch of pavement right under a lamppost. After what seemed like ten minutes, there was a flicker of movement from a nearby bush. A man in long dress-robes and a pointed wizard’s hat stepped out into the light and clicked a cigarette lighter look alike. The closest light went out. After clicking it multiple times, the whole street was completely black. In the strange looking man’s other arm was a bundle of pink blankets with the softest sound of heavy breathing. The tabby cat transformed, for a second time that night, into her “human form.”
“Good Evening, Professor Dumbledore,” stated the witch as she walked up to him, her emerald robes billowing out behind her.
“Good Evening, or shall I say morning, Professor McGonagall,” smiled the tall wizard. “Long time, no see,” he chuckled.
“Albus, is it true? Did Sirius really betray them? His best friend, Albus?”
“I’m afraid the truth is not always easily seen, Minerva. We may never know what has truly happened. But, what I do know is that Sirius was found in a street with twelve muggles dead and only a finger left of Peter Pettigrew. He has been taken to Azkaban, and Amelia, going after him, found herself in the crossfire. I don’t know if Sirius will ever be able to forgive himself for that.”
“What will happen to Emily?”
“That, Minerva, is what brings us to another neighborhood tonight. I think it will be best if we take her to her godfather’s house. I think he will want to take her.”
“First Harry and now Emily; what has the world come to?”
“Ahh, Minerva, let’s not dwell upon the unpleasant. Once again, think of what has happened. He is gone, for now at least.”
“So, you don’t think he’s gone for good?”
“Only time can tell. Shall we get her inside?” asked Dumbledore, indicating the pink bundles in his hand.
The witch nodded, and they glided down the street. As they walked, they felt the light breeze linger in the air. The smell of the ocean swirled around them, stinging their nostrils a bit. Staying on the out-skirt of the street, they rounded right before stopping in front of a white cottage with flowers outlining the walk to the door. There was a dim light through one of the upstairs’ windows. Dumbledore and McGonagall made their way to the door, then knocked three times. While they waited, Dumbledore hummed a show tune and McGonagall stared at the baby they were about to hand off. They heard footsteps echo through the house, lights flipping on as they grew louder. The footsteps stopped and a man’s eyes could be seen peeping out the curtain. After realizing whom it was, a mediocre, straggly man with wild hair and deep circles under his green eyes opened the door.
“Albus, Minerva, what brings you to my neck of the woods?” asked the man, eyeing the two. He then noticed the pink blankets. His eyes widened and he nearly choked. “No, it can’t be. There’s been a mistake. Please tell me it’s not that, anything but that. They’re not...”
Albus held up his hand. “Dear boy, we can’t afford to lose you too, please calm down, Remus. Everything will be all right. May we enter?” Albus asked.
The man named Remus motioned for them to enter. After closing the door behind them, he made his way to the living room. Minerva and Albus sat side-by-side on the long couch while Remus took the armchair opposite them. Minerva took the baby girl from Albus’ hands and rocked her gently. Remus leaned his head back against the chair; he looked ghastly. He had turned pale white and was shaking slightly. Opening his eyes, he looked over at the pink blankets where he knew his goddaughter was hiding.
“Remus, we need to talk about a few things,” stated Dumbledore softly, but sternly. Remus nodded so Dumbledore continued. “Sirius was found in the middle of a street with his wand; twelve muggles are dead, but that’s not all. Not only muggles were in that street.” Albus was staring into Remus’ eyes with a sad expression. He felt sorry for Remus Lupin; he was about to tell him that he has lost all of his best friends—James, Peter, and even Sirius in some ways. Remus nodded, as if knowing what was about to be said. “It was believed that Peter Pettigrew searched for Sirius tonight to kill him for his betrayal against James and Lily. All they found of Pettigrew was his finger. Also, Amelia; she heard that Sirius might have been in trouble. She went after him and got blasted in the crossfire. I’m so sorry, Remus, I know this is difficult for you,” Dumbledore continued.
Silence followed after Dumbledore finished. Remus had tears welling up in his eyes. He couldn’t believe it. Prongs was dead. Lily was dead. Wormtail was dead. Amelia was dead. Padfoot was in Azkaban for causing the deaths. Everything was crumbling around him. He let a few tears escape before wiping them off. McGonagall took a tissue from the inside of her robes and sniffled behind it. She, too, was crying. Remus got out of his chair and knelt down in front of Professor McGonagall, looking at his goddaughter intently. A pale pink hand dropped out of the pink bundles, and Remus reached up, putting his forefinger inside it. The little fist closed around Remus’ finger.
“Albus, what happens to Emily?” asked Remus, looking up. He searched the old man’s face.
“She doesn’t have any living grandparents, Remus. She is your goddaughter, so I thought we might give you a chance to take her. If you do not wish to take responsibility, we understand and will take her to an orphanage first thing tomorrow morning,” stated Dumbledore.
“Of course I’ll take her,” said Remus without thinking.
“She is going to be a great responsibility, Remus, are you absolutely positive?” asked Professor McGonagall.
“I wouldn’t have it any other way, Minerva,” stated Remus determinedly.
“It’s settled then. I will need you to sign a few papers, just saying that you will be her guardian and what not, and we will be on our way,” smiled Dumbledore.
Remus nodded his head and motioned for the old wizard to follow him to the kitchen to sign the papers. McGonagall stayed in the living room with the baby girl sound asleep. Flipping the lights as he went, the tabby looking man sat at the head of the table, Dumbledore sitting on his left. Dumbledore rummaged in his cloak for a second, then pulled out a long stick. With a flick of his wand, some papers, a quill, and ink appeared. Remus looked into Dumbledore’s eyes and had the feeling that he was being x-rayed; like Dumbledore could see right through him. The old wizard gave him a small smile, nodding a bit.
“Sign here and here.” Dumbledore indicated to two lines then pushed the papers towards Remus.
Remus signed the papers, and with the flick of his wand, Dumbledore made the papers once again disappear.
“Is that all?” Remus asked.
“Yes, that will be all for now. I believe the ministry is looking over Amelia’s will and then they will be in touch shortly. Now, I believe we will let you and your goddaughter get some rest. Best wishes and if you were to need anything, please don’t hesitate to send an owl.” The old wizard pushed his chair out and stood up. Walking into the other room, he stated, “Minerva, I think it may be time for us to leave and not intrude on Mr. Lupin any longer.”
Standing up, the petite witch looked over to Lupin and took half a step. Remus met her the rest of the way and took the baby girl in his hands, balancing all of her weight evenly. The tabby wizard walked his guests to the door and bid them a goodnight. He watched as the two disappeared down the dark street. Closing the blinds, Remus Lupin walked up his stairs to his bedroom, flipping lights off as he went.
Pulling out his wand with his right hand, as his left was preoccupied, he waved it. A blur of pink and green scurried around the room, and after a few seconds, the silence prevailed. Trudging over to the pink crib by his bed, he sat the pink bundles down. He pulled a green blanket, which was engraved with ‘Emily J. R. A. S. Black,’ over the side of the crib and tucked Emily into it. Sighing, he sat down on the edge of his bed. Taking off his worn out tennis shoes, he glanced at the clock. It was after 2AM. It’s been a long day, he thought. Turning the lamp by his bed off, he lay back on his pillows and fell asleep to the soft breathing of the other life that he vowed to protect.

Aww! That post made me tense, cry, smile and chuckle at the same time. And I agree with Morag. You already had to kill Sirius off, can't Remus stay! Mean person (JK, not you)
Poor Remus, he'll never see his Grandchildren... -goes off in search of a box of kleenex)

Yes, he does. He just won't get to watch them grow up...
Thank ya, I'll update soon
WOW!
I never really expected Remus to be over the moon about the twins, though...
As long as George doesn't actually kill Draco then things will work out- I hope...
But we have a serious matter at hand now!
BABY NAMES!
I have an idea, but I don't want to look like an idiot if I'm wrong...
Hmm... Better get the baby books out and start researching

It had been four months; it was now April, Easter holiday to be exact. Ginny had been moved to Aunt Muriel’s house permanently because of what happened at Malfoy Manor, thanks to Snape. He had called Emily and she called her in-laws. Harry, Ron, and Hermione had been caught, but keeping his promise, Draco didn’t identify them. There wasn’t much he could do with his Aunt Bellatrix there, but he, at least, didn’t identify them, meaning that Voldemort wasn’t called immediately. They were able to escape and went to Fleur and Bill’s place.
Tonks was just about ready to pop, and Emily was getting rather large too. It was late in the evening on April 7th when Tonks dropped her glass of sweet tea on the hardwood floor. Emily and George had moved back into her childhood home with Remus and Tonks, to not only help out but be helped. Both women were driving the guys crazy, but it seemed to be getting better. George was helping Emily to her chair at the table when the glass shattered, spraying Emily’s ankle with the cold liquid. Everyone froze as they glanced at the glass and then Tonks, who was clutching her stomach.
“Contractions!” she screamed. George and Remus were at her side in an instant. They carried her through the house and into the downstairs bedroom. Emily grabbed her cell phone, calling Carlisle. He had been staying nearby, at Emily and George’s place. He hurried over to the house and Emily let him in. They hurried through the hall and found Tonks gripping Remus’ hand as a lifeline. She was screaming that her water broke while George was dabbing at her head with a cool cloth.
After a few hours, Tonks gave birth to a beautiful, healthy baby boy. They named him Theodore Remus Lupin, Ted after Tonks’ father. Andromeda was called and arrived during labor. She was sitting in a chair beside the bed, smiling at the bundle of blankets in Remus’ arms. The little hair Teddy had was black, but changing to a lighter color as the time went by. George wound his arms around Emily’s waist as she stared at her baby brother. Remus looked years younger, beaming as he held his son. Emily’s tears welled in her eyes as her fingers intertwined with George’s around her round belly. Oh, how she missed her small figure.
Remus met her eyes and beckoned her with the nod of his head. George kissed her shoulder before she crossed the room and sat beside Remus on the bed. He extended his arm around her as she lay back on the bed. He shifted Teddy slightly so Emily was half holding him too. Emily placed her finger in the baby boy’s pale pink, miniature fist. It closed immediately around her finger. Her tears hit the blue blanket as she bent over and kissed his forehead.
“Hi, Teddy,” she whispered. “I’m your sister, Emily,” she said with a smile.
“Teddy, meet your Godmother,” Remus said softly. Emily turned to look at him. “What do you think?” he asked her.
“We wouldn’t have it any other way, Ems,” Tonks said quietly.
“I’d love to,” Emily whispered.
Remus shifted all of the weight so Emily was now fully holding Teddy. She glanced up at George, who was staring intently at her.
“This will be us soon,” she whispered.
“I can’t wait,” he whispered back as he came to her side. He kissed her forehead and put his hand on her stomach. He moved his hand to Teddy and ruffled the little hair he did have. After ten or so minutes, Emily gave Teddy to Andromeda to hold. Remus left the house briefly to go tell Bill of the good news. He returned later, telling them that Harry, Hermione, and Ron were all safe and that Harry agreed to be Godfather.
Emily and George walked slowly back to their room after the long night. They laid in their bed, whispering of their twins. They had a sonogram and found out that the twins were a girl and boy. They discussed names for them, but hadn’t made a decision yet. George’s hand was laying flat against her stomach, her hand on top of his.
“What about Alyson?” he whispered.
Emily shook her head. “The Morgan’s daughter is named Allison—too close.” Emily sighed softly as George kissed her hair. “I’ve actually been thinking…”
“Mmmm, what have you been thinking?” George whispered, his breath tickling her neck.
“What about Sirius Black Weasley and Amelia Tonks Weasley?” Emily asked quietly.
George was about to answer when something nudging his hand made him turn abruptly quiet. “Wa-was that the baby?” he asked in a shocked whisper.
Emily’s hands fluttered to the spot right below where his hands were as the babies started kicking again. “They’re kicking,” she whispered. Emily glanced over at her silent husband. He had a single tear running down his cheek. She wiped it with the back of her hand.
His smoldering eyes met hers as a grin crept onto his face. “I guess they answered the question for me. I’m glad the four of us all agree,” he whispered. George scooted lower in the bed and lifted up Emily’s shirt. He kissed her stomach softly as her hands ran through his hair. “I can’t wait to welcome you to the world, Amelia Tonks Weasley and Sirius Black Weasley.”

I used Adobe Photoshop, but it's quite expensive...
The banners are so cool. Where are you pulling them from?
Thanks... The wolf one is actually a still from the third movie when Remus is in wolf form and howling at the moon. I just tampered with it on Adobe Photoshop. As for the one before it, I just googled a pic of Emma Stone and a pic of the moon, and then used Photoshop to cut them out and put them together and what not
