Rating/status: I have a feeling Sirius is going to swear / Complete
This was not the destination Sirius had had in mind. The alley wasn't familiar and he guessed he was just lucky he hadn't landed in the middle of a dumpster or half inside a building. The logical part of his brain was insisting that if he couldn't even apparate to the correct location, that he was in no condition to deal with Peter when he found him. He wasn't about to listen to that logic, but he was aware of it. Honestly, the only thought he could really hold on to right now was how he was going to murder Pete; everything else was unimportant or going to break him.
Tightening his fist around his wand, he glanced up the alley towards the street and frowned. He could see people walking by and he furrowed his brow. The majority of them were wearing suits, ties, Muggle clothes. Where the hell had he ended up?
Warily, he made his way towards the sidewalk and squinted as he tried to place it. He wasn't completely unfamiliar to Muggle London, but this didn't appear to be anywhere he'd ever been before. At least he wasn't wearing robes, but that meant he couldn't hide his wand very well and he was disinclined to put it away. While he wasn't convinced this was some Death Eater trick, it wasn't outside the realm of possibility and all things considered, it was better to be safe than sorry.
Suddenly, his breath caught in his chest and the whole world seemed to freeze when he spotted a red-head who looked entirely too familiar. But that was impossible. Without thinking about it, he shoved past a few suits, ignoring their indignant protests and any rude gestures that may have followed. Narrowly avoiding a cab or two, he ran across the street and attempted to fall into step a few paces behind her without causing any more of a scene than he might have already.
