A/N: This is my first multi-chapter fanfic and so and constructed reviews are appreciated. I don't know when I will update but I hope to finish the story.

Also I don't own anything but the plot, J.K. Rowling is the true mastermind of these characters.

On to the show:

Chapter 1:

November 1st, 1981

Sirius sat on his couch with a sleeping baby Harry, shocked at what happened in the last few hours. James and Lily were gone. His brother in all but blood was gone, and he couldn't avenge his death like he wanted to. He knew that Harry needed him more. In his arms, asleep finally, was the one person he would give everything for, will give everything for. Dumbledore was on his way over to inspect the house to make sure it was secure, which it was. Lily made sure that if he was to be godfather then his house would be baby proofed. He was grateful that Harry was here now. He wanted to go out and rip the traitor limb from limb, but he couldn't. Harry needed him. The doorbell rang.

Answering it he welcomed his old professor into his house, "Professor Dumbledore, please come in. I just got him to sleep."

"Albus please, and I'll make it quick. Do you know which room he will be staying in?" Albus replied looking over the sleeping infant in Sirius' arms.

"Second door on the right from the stairs," He replied.

His house was small compare to the one he grew up in but it was perfect. 4 bedrooms upstairs with an en suite off the Master, and 1 bathroom for the other 3 to share, downstairs he had a study with a small library, a medium-sized kitchen with dining room along the back of the house, and a living room with fireplace. The foyer was a good size, enough room for a hanging coat rack and a shoe rack along one wall for about 10 people.

He followed Albus up the stairs and into Harry's room. Once in the room he carefully put Harry in the crib while Albus ran diagnosis spell on the room, "well everything look good, did Lily do all this?"

"Yes, she made sure it was perfect before James could bring Harry over. I've been replenishing them just as she told me to."

"Okay, well I want to put some more wards on the property then I will let you get some sleep. I'll come back later to check up on everything. I want to caution you to not leave the house with him without others around. He will be known by everyone in our world, I don't want to put him in danger of those still out there that are likely to want his head. Take good care of him Sirius."

"I will Albus; he's all I have left."

With that Albus took his leave. Sirius took on last look at the baby in the crib and left the room turning down the lights as he went.
