Alla:

I do not believe that Dumbledore was planning to kill Sirius, but it is quite possible to me that Dumbledore decided to take Sirius out of the game for a while (I think actually it was discussed rather recently on the list), so the second jet of light could have been 
stunning curse or  some other curse knocking you unconscious.

In that scenario I am willing to assume that Lupin threw that curse (not being ESE!, mind you :o))

Now, Angie was saying that Lupinh never says to Harry that Sirius is dead in MOM, that he just started to saying the first letter "d", true and prior to that Lupin is saying "There is nothing you can do, Harry... nothing.... He is gone" - OOP, p.806, paperback.

Of course, we can read "gone" as gone to the other side, but we can also read it at face  value as "gone" somewhere, we don't know yet.


Why would Dumbledore want to hide Sirius somewhere? For several reasons:
he could have wanted to keep him safe. Now, I am sure Sirius would ahve lodly protested against not being allowed to fight, so maybe Dumbledore gave him some kind of secret mission, we are not privy to yet.

I know, I know it is quite outlandish, but here are my thouights for now.




I like this theory.  I have always felt that Lupin was going to say something to Harry other than "dead".  My question is - We all assume that Sirius is dead.  I am going to check in the OoTP and see if Dumbledore spells it out in so many words that Sirius is dead (JKR has said to take what Dumbledore says as fact) but can anyone remember JKR ever saying "Sirius is dead"?  I know she says that if you are dead you do not come back and we will hear more from Sirius.  But does she ever come out with those 3 words?
