Succession

Three days after he turns fourteen, Sirius Black is called home. One month later, Orion Black is dead and Sirius must accept a title he's never wanted - and along with it, a nice fat bullseye on his head. Sirius realises why he wasn't allowed to turn down the succession: for that to happen, he must die. Not 24 hours later, he's considering it as an option. Warnings inside.
