It had been a few months now, a few months since Sirius Black had escaped from Azkaban and had taken to hiding on the grounds of Hogwarts. It had been easy enough to get in and hide, staying in his Animagus form, moving through the Forbidden forest. He and the others had come here so often during their school years they could practically navigate it with their eyes closed. Not to mention the creatures had become accustomed to his scent, they left him alone so long as he left them alone.
It was December now, the weather growing colder, snow already coating the ground at regular intervals, and Sirius' normal hiding place of a secluded cave was no longer enough. He needed to start getting out and around to gather more supplies. Food, things to keep himself warm. Unfortunately a fire was out of the question, the light and smoke would certainly draw attention. He had to find other means to keep himself warm.
Right now, Sirius was moving along the edge of the Forbidden Forest, in his dog form of course incase any students happened to be around, even in this weather. He was headed toward the lake in the hopes of finding some fish before it completely froze over, his stomach grumbling at the thought.
