Up the center stairs and to the left you find a tiny set of french glass doors which open into a large, sunlit room. The bronze on the doors sparkle in the sunlight and everything is bright and cheery. It is a perfect spot for someone to warm their hearts as well as their minds.
Tucked away in the back corner is a large cherry piano. It is slick with polish but covered in dust. It had been ages since Aunt Bea had played it, and even longer since her passing. Wolfie only wished she knew how to play. Having spent long lazy summer afternoons listening to Bea play the classics, she missed the gentle tones. What she also missed was how her aunt would jump into the blues at ramdom and how they would spend hours on end making up songs. Blues was funny like that: easy to catch the beat and hard to quit.
Stepping onto the hardwood floors you note there are sheer lace curtains blowing in a breeze out of the matching set of glass doors opposite to the one she stood at. Someone must have left one of them open, thought Wolfie. Clacking across the room, she shut it and secured the latch. It would be a shame if any of the moonlits got out onto the balcony which was small yet offered a nice view of the backyard when one needed to get away.
The room was relatively bare. The auctioneers had taken some of the furniture to pay for Bea's funeral. It was the one room Wolfie had been willing to spare for such a thing. Chairs and end tables, fake potted trees and skatter rugs could all be purchased again when the time was right. However, there was a tiny bench, which belong to the piano, flattened against the wall to the right. With a frown, Wolfie found a stack of photos on top of it. Sifting through the pile, she quickly realized she wasnt ready to deal wiht that sort of memory and replaced them from in which she found.
Having been open to the elements for so long, a small pile of snow lay drifted in front of the outside french doors. She had managed to track water all over the floor and silently cursed at having to find a mop and bucket to pick it up before the floors buckled from their dampness. At least there was a cleaning closet somewhere near the attic stairs. It was the one good thing about having a large house: there was always multiples of things somewhere.

While Wolfie had begun cleaning up the water, Moosey leads in the victimed moonlits, as she carried piles of blankets and Jabu of course sleeping soundly atop them. She began to lay the blankets down, trying to make the room as comfy as possible for them... Some of them had begun to whimper, some also had begun to show signs of change. She shook her head, shaking away the fears about their possible pain, and their perhaps too drastic changes.
After laying all of the blankets down, each moonlit finding a comfy pile to themselves, she stands and looks over to Wolfie.
"I'll be back soon, i'm going to go get some food, mostly basic rations, and a chart i can keep all the info in."

Wolfie nodded and took a swift look around. With the blankets folded on the floor nearby, she began to swirl them with a foot to resemble small birds nests. It would be a soft, comfy place to curl up with when they didnt feel well.
"Hurry back? I need to get back down to Talencia and the others. I dont want whatever is under the floorboards to get out before I can get a good look at it."
((Since this thread is just starting up, Im going to play a hypothetical here: Im playing this post as if I was helped up by Yuki, rushed up the stairs to help HPM and then rush back to find the noise... cause I know I cant be in two places at once but it makes the most sense that I help with the unstable ones))

She wanders back in from her room quickly, with clipboard, paper, a pen, and some food in her arms. "I think this is all we will need right now, go help the others out hun." She smiles to Wolfie... Wolfie had alot on her mind, and even though this was a sorta desperate situation, she knew that Wolfie had other things that were equally important to rush to.

"Thanks Hybrid. Ill see you soon? If you need me just send one of your other moonlits. Or something." Wolfie mumbled under her breath a moment. "I need to get me a messenger pigeon."

Sirius had willingly agreed to this. He'd even pretty much requested it. It had sounded daring and magical! Now he wasn't so sure.
He had followed HPM up the stairs and into the piano room, trotting along, his tail waving in the air jauntily. His confidence had not last too terribly long, though. He now felt strange... kinda shivery all over. He had tried curling up in one of the nests, but that just didn't soothe him.
He'd begun to pace then, from one end of the room to the other, rounding the piano in his trek. Then the itches began. At first he just stopped to scratch behind his ear briefly, though that didn't really reach the proper spot. But as time wore on, the itch began to grow more piercing, more infuriating. He couldn't reach atop his head with his hind paws, and his forepaws just couldn't scratch there properly. Out of desperation he began to rub his head against the wooden walls, whining unhappily.
Before long, as he rubbed desperately against the wall, he noticed his head was scraping the wall differently... there were... protrusions from his head? He swiped a paw across the top of his head in an attempt to discover just what was happening to him. He felt two general bumps, and finally he became afraid.
He let out a loud howl of fear. "I'm turning into a DEMON! I'm growing horns! Ack! Help! MOTHER!" He began to race around the room in a terror, not understanding whatever it was his body was doing or changing into.
((Poor guy!))

"Zeus, I dont know what is going on with you and I dont really know if Hybrid or Wolfie will know either, I know you wanted to just return back to normal adult form and that is exactly what I was trying to do. I went to the store to get you the potion and I guess this one got mixed up with the proper ones somehow, I looked properly at the bottle but it just looked like the normal potion so i never questioned it."
Lenore said as she had started to make her way to the piano room where she had heard of one other moonlit having gotten ill from this potion. What on earth were they thinking selling these things? When someone comes across an unstable potion you dont put it out to pretend to sell it or not, thas just ludicras Lenore thought to herself as she carried on with a wimpering Zeus beside her, not knowing what to do with the poor thing who had not stoped trying to scratch his own head but couldnt reach the right spots.
"Mother, am I going to die?! Am I going to turn into a freak!? Am i going to be going through this pain forever?! I dont want to mother, i just wanted to be an adult again and this happens. Please mother, Please help me" he cried as he walked along next to Lenore, holding her as he weeped.
"My darling, I am going to see what I can do but I cant really promise anything. If this potion that i gave you is unstable or some of the contents in it are unknown then I am just going to have to let the store owners see to why this is happening and what could actually be wrong with you. If they dont know then...well...I dont know but something tells me you might have to stay at the store for a while without Aurora and I know how much you have taken to like her but it cant be helped.
I cant let Aurora next to you when your like this, I dont want her hurt and I dont know if what you have is contagious or not. I doubt it is contagious but I dont really wish to tempt fate by having you around her" Lenore said as she wrapped her arms around the moonlit and allowed him to cry on her "just remember that I love you sweetheart and I would give up everything, but you and Aurora, just to be able to turn back time and pick another potion then this one.
I swear to you sweetheart, you are going to be ok, you are going to make it through this and I swear that whatever happens I will be with you every step of the way. Hybrid and Wolfie might find it annoying that I am camped by the room door but they will have to deal with it because Im not going to let you go through this alone and I will bring Aurora with me as well so at least you two can see each other even if you two cant be with each other."
She said as she held onto her moonlit and carried on towards the room, wondering now where she could be since she had never been here before and with a sick moonlit on her hands it wasnt exactly time to get lost in this place.

Sirius was in serious trouble. He couldn't see properly anymore, and his eyes were watering something fierce. His tail hurt him so badly he whimpered constantly. His head, however, wasn't hurting to much anymore. He wasn't sure why, but had no room to really consider it.
Over time, the excruciating pain in his tail resolved itself. It became clear why the poor wolf had been in such pain. His entire tail had split... into THREE tails. They were all three painful and swollen and mostly hairless for a time. Then they slowly healed, becoming three healthy, floofy wolf tails.
His eyesight also cleared... somewhat. He no longer saw as he used to. It took more time for him to adjust than it had for his tails to heal. He still stumbled and ran into things... but he found as he adjusted that he could see MORE than he used to. He had also discovered that he had bobbly things on his head now. Oddly enough, if he 'listened' to them, he could see better! Over time he learned how to coordinate his new senses and began to be more of his normal self again. Just look out when he was happy! As if one tail wasn't destructive enough, three tails wrought havoc on the piano room's occupants.

A few days later, Zeus seemed really in pain, he kept rubbing his back against the ground and walls, his fur seemed to be getting thinner, finer, and softer.. His legs seemed unusually unable to hold his weight. A night after I documented this, I came back to the room to find that he was on all fours again! His fur seemed silky and soft just as his feathers. Even the colors in his fur seemed to blend in with the softness.

Lenore was sleeping soundly when Aurora started sensing something wrong with Zeus. It was like a sixth sense with her, when Zeus was uncomfortable or upset or angy or whatever in anyway she would be able to tell even if he wasnt around, Lenore didnt know how she got it and at such an early age but she did ant so Lenore work up to having her face licked and then.
"Ok, ok Aurora, im up, im up whats wrong?" She asked as she watched her moonlit jump off her lap and over to the door of the piano room where she looked in and noticed Zeus was scratching his back agiesnt the wall. She picked up Aurora and cuddled her as she faintly heard Zeus wiper a little as if he was in pain "oh Aurora, what have I done to your friend? I shouldnt of ever brought that potion, I should of just left him how he was for a bit longer till there wernt none of these potions around to do this to him or the other moonlits in there.
Though I guess I should be glad hes back to his adult form? Ok so that is a very miniscule thing that im happy about but still I just want him to be alright. All we can do is basically wait, I hate the sounds of that but what can we gdo? I want to go in there but something tells me I cant and shouldnt" she said sighing and carried on cuddling Aurora who was wimpering due to hating seeing her friend like this, wishing something, anything, would help her baby Zeus now since he seemed to need the help more then ever right now.

Wolfie poked her head inside the piano room and made a silent count. two...three...four. Oh dear. They were up to four. She pushed inside Adaheli, the newest subject for HPM to watch. He seemed to be getting quite dry and his fur was falling off in tuffs all over the house. His eyes didnt seem quite right either.
Wolfie wondered if selling off those potions was such a good idea. Then again, poor Jabu looked so cool and everyone else's pets looked so interesting. How could she resist such an experiement? Wasnt it human nature to be curious? And most of these pets willingly downed the potions...so they too must have a curious nature. All there was to do was to wait.

A day or two after Adaheli joined the subjects, with his shedding and a drying of his skin, he had begun to scratch at his head, and naw on his tale. Noticing the odd behaviour Moosey began to give him an hourly bath, mostly with a sort of lotion to sooth his itching. She decided to take a rest after about 10 baths and 10 hours and went to take a small nap so that she could keep her eyes open longer. When she came back she could barely recognize the poor creature.

Wolfie returned and dropped yet another moonlit into the midst. Charmian was looking a bit icky sickly and gooey. Though Wolfie wasnt too sure if that was a good or a bad thing. Her toes seemed to be sticking to the floor and her ears were getting puffy and bloated. Wolfie honestly thought she looked like she had swallowed Mickey Mouse.
"Wifey," she called out. "Im sorry to come and run but Ive got an adventure to lead!" She shouted and bounded back down the stairs.

[&&When The Pain Comes]
((*From Common Room*))
Sherbert darted in and let out a huff of air and came to a skidding stop. She took a deep breath and waited for Yuya, for some odd reason, nervously. She smiled and waved her paw in the air for no reason. She didn't know why, but she was crazy happy around him. "Hurry Yuya!" She whispered.
