Chapter One: Eye for an Eye
WARNING: I don't own Harry Potter or Spartacus or any of their stories and characters. I only own my story and any character I might add in.
SUMMARY: Harry, in order to save his son and the rest of his family from sharing the same fate as himself and Spartacus, used his magic to get them all out Rome's hands. What he didn't expect to happen was for them to be sent forward in time. Now trapped in the strange new era, Adam and the rest of the rebel leaders must ban together with the Order in order to find a way back to their time and save Adam's parents. The catch? Figuring out how exactly Harry's magic landed them in the future so they can back in time. Past and future must ban together to stop enemies from both eras if they ever want to save Adam's parents. Should be simple right? Wrong.

Chapter One: Eye for an Eye
Sirius' POV:
"And your aid in saving my parents."
All the three of us could do was stare at the child in front of Albus. Sure, having extremely tall and strong looking men and just as strong looking women from hundreds of years ago is hard to wrap your head around. But staring at a child born from your godchild of your time and a man from the past is even harder.
Looking closer at the boy it was very easy to see that he really was Harry's kid. He gained his dad's darker skin tone and hair color, but his facial and body features were all Harry. The kid was obviously going to be as tall as his dad most likely if his current height was anything to go by. The kid's accent was even strange. It was like hearing two accents at once, but with the British in him being more obvious.
He really was beautiful.
The kid seemed to sense I was staring at him and turned to look at me and I nearly forgot how to breathe when I looked into very familiar emerald green eyes.
"Adam." I blinked at his voice.
"Sorry?" he turned to fully face me then.
"You keep thinking 'kid' whenever you look at me. My name's not 'kid', it's Adam." I didn't know what was more shocking. The fact that an eight year old could be such a big smartass already, or that he just spoke with a different speech pattern.
"My mother is from this time while father is from the past. It is very easy for me to speak as if I am from either time." He said changing his speech slightly again.
"Don't know if I should find that cool, weird, or just down right confusing." I said and Remus just shrugged beside me.
"Anyways," I said looking at Adam, "I'm sorry for thinking 'kid' when I thought of you, but how'd you know?" I asked.
"Mother taught me how." Was all he said and turned to Albus again. "We need your aid in saving my parents." He repeated his first comment.
"And why would you need our help dear boy?" he asked.
"Because we are in this time and not the other. Our brothers need us yet we cannot get to them. Therefore we need your aid." A tall man that could only be Agron growled out.
I glared at him in confusion then noticed the others were also glaring at us.
'The hell did we do to them?' I wondered. 'How can you ask someone for help while you glare at them?'
"They don't trust you." I jumped a little at hearing my questions be answered out loud and looked to Adam. "Mother has told them of his time in this strange one, and they do not like anyone from it." I just stared at him.
"First, can you please stop getting into my thoughts? It's a little weird." Adam just nodded then. "Second, then why ask us for help if they don't like us? And why don't they like us?" Adam sighed.
"They are not without sense. They know that without aid we cannot return home and my parents shall be left to suffer whatever fate is awaiting them. However," Adam turned back to Albus and glared, "they are also aware that mother was not treated with the respect he deserves in this time." I flinched slightly at that knowing he meant what Harry had mentioned in his suicide letter. "You're the one they don't trust the most." He said looking to Albus. "But, as I've been repeating, mother and father need your help more than mother wants to stay away from this time."
Adam looked back to me and Remus. "So, you gonna help us save my parents Padfoot? Moony?" I let out a sob then at hearing our nicknames and smiled and went to answer but Albus beat me to it.
"I am not sure we can dear boy." Everyone in the room just stared at the man in shock.
"The hell you mean 'I am not sure we can dear boy'?! Harry's in trouble and needs our help! Who cares if we need to learn to jump time! Just get a bloody Time Turner and let's go!" I yelled but Albus only sighed.
"We do not even know the whole story Sirius. Nor do we even know how they got here."
"Mother's doing."
"You've said that already child." Albus said looking to him. "But we don't even know how Harry managed it." Albus sighed once more and looked to me. "But, I can see these two are determined to help you. I see no reason why we can't take you back and let you tell your story to everyone before we make a final decision." Adam's face brightened then and truly looked his age then.
That's when I realized something.
"You're eight right?" Adam turned a nod to me. "Then why are you acting so mature? Most eight year olds I see are just trying to find the closest piece of chocolate while laughing at everything and always smiling." Adam smiled then only this one was a sad smile.
"Because at the moment I only want my parents returned to me." It was then Adam showed me he was a normal eight year old.
Just a scared one who wanted his parents back with him.
'He's strong for his age. Acting calm in front of people he's never seen in a time that he's never been in while who knows what is happening to his parents.' I thought giving the boy a small smile and nodding at his answer. I went to step closer to the boy only to freeze and hold my hands up when six swords were pointed at me.
"Really guys? All he's doing is walking up to me. And besides, it's not like he could hurt me if he wanted to." Adam said in confidence as he walked to meet me half way and stand in front of me causing the others to lower their weapons. Even Remus had pulled his wand out behind me.
"I still believe we do not need their aid in this matter. They did not appreciate our brother when they had him." Naevia growled.
"And you know we cannot return home without their aid. Despite his past mother spoke highly of those he left behind, more so of the men before us, and if they are willing we would be foolish to deny aid. For we are stuck here if we do." Adam told her glaring some himself.
I just stared at the boy in front of me in shock. 'Eight years old and already shows the leading characteristics he gained from both parents. If the story we just heard is anything to go by. Harry's raised one amazing kid. Makes me wonder what kind of man he grew to be.' I thought with a fond smile and turned to Albus who nodded.
"Now then, I trust you understand apparating because of Harry?" they all nodded and Albus motioned for everyone to step outside and hold hands in a circle.
"Since you are all Muggles I will have to drop the wards to let you into our base. But be warned, I can only keep them down for a short time or else our enemies can and will get in. If you are not within the boundaries by the time they return back to normal I'm afraid you will be left."
"No one is being left." Adam growled squeezing Agron and Nasir's hands tighter to make a point.
Albus just nodded and looked back around once more. "Keep thinking Order of the Phoenix headquarters in your minds and do not think of anything else." They nodded and, despite not being of magic, they all didn't look nervous at all.
In fact, they all looked insulted at hearing Albus instruct them on how apparating works.
I smirked at them and felt the familiar pull at my naval and suddenly I was standing just outside the wards protecting my childhood home.
"I thought we were to your headquarters? Not to some odd looking buildings with even strange lights and sounds coming through them!" Crixus growled and I couldn't stop the laugh that came then.
"First, these are called apartments. Basically just houses that are stacked on top of each other and aren't as big as a normal hose. Second, most of those lights are called lightbulbs. The other kind of light, as well as sound, is coming from some of their TVs which are boxes with moving pictures on them. Third, Albus did say the base was warded so no one could get in or see it without knowing what to do." I explained.
The leaders all nodded but I could still see confusion in all their faces and sighed softly.
That's what I get for trying to explain modern times to Ancient Rome men and women.
Albus looked to them with his signature twinkling eyes and tapped the ground twice with his foot causing the buildings to move.
"Do they not feel the movements?" Adam asked in awe watching as the houses began to stop moving to reveal my home.
"Nope, it's magic remember? Charmed so that muggles never notice their place is moving slightly. Now, no more talking until we're inside. Just be prepared to move when Albus says so." Adam nodded and got ready with the others.
"Let's go." Albus said and the leaders took off leaving us quite literally in their dust.
"Well, I guess we don't have to worry about losing one." I said and followed quickly behind Remus and Albus. Once we were within the boundaries Albus quickly turned and reapplied the wards before turning a smile at the leaders and Adam.
"I can guess why most small armies hesitated before attacking you guys. Just watching you take off at such speeds sent chills through my spine." I said and a laugh was heard.
"At least you do not shit yourselves as Romans do!" Gannicus cried and the others laughed at him.
"Now then, shall we?" Albus asked and opened the door.
The others went to follow him but I stopped them. "Uh, it's a narrow hallway when you first walk in and, uh, it might be best if the three of us go first. You know to, uh, calm the others down first." I said when I got glares from all the men of the group.
"Will you guys stop it already?! If mother were here you would not be acting like this!" at that they all gave Adam a guilty look before nodding at me and letting me and Remus follow Albus.
I smiled at them to let them know I wasn't mad and walked in only to see a sea of red hording around Albus shooting off questions every second at once.
Some notice me and Remus and left Albus to horde around us only to freeze at seeing the people behind us.
"Uh, who are they?" the twins asked and I turned to the leaders before rubbing my head.
"Maybe it'd be best to move everyone to the kitchen?" I offered and they all nodded.
Ron ran off first, most likely to get his friends, while the others walked downstairs and sat at the table one by one.
Albus, Remus, and I stayed standing and when Ron, Hermione, Neville, and Luna joined the group Albus spoke up.
"Introductions are in order first I believe." He said and began introducing people starting with ours. "The red heads are all Weasleys. The man right there is Arthur and beside him is his wife Molly. On her right is the Twins, Fred and George, and their only daughter Ginny. To his left is Bill, Charlie, and Ronald. Beside Ronal is Hermione, Neville, and Luna. The woman sitting beside me is Minerva. Severus will most likely be joining us shortly." The leaders nodded and looked around at our people as Albus introduced them.
Once he was done Molly spoke up. "Um, Albus, who's the boy? He seems officially familiar." She said and Albus gave Adam a twinkling smile.
"I believe the boy has the right to explain that himself." Adam nodded then and looked around shyly at everyone and I had to smile then.
'So much like Harry.' I thought as Adam spoke.
"I'm Adam Alexander Potter." Right then you would be able to hear a quill hit the floor.
And just like that the switch was flicked and the room was filled with shocked cries and questions.
"Silence!" Albus yelled causing the room to go back to being quiet. "Thank you. Now, this is Harry's child. His features should be the best proof."
"Yes but Albus, he looks a lot like someone else too. Even his accent is weird!" Arthur said pointing out the obvious.
"That's because my features come from Harry, my mother, and everything else comes from Spartacus, my father. My accent is kind of like a mixture of them both, but mother's British blood comes out more in my speech. Or so I'm told." Some of the people in the room smiled then while others fought back tears.
"So then Harry got a happy ending." Hermione cried wiping at her eyes.
"If he did none of the people beside me, including myself, would not be here now. We would be back in our time." Adam said confusing our people.
I sighed then and looked to Remus who nodded and began to sum up all that we'd learned on the tour.
When we were done most were pale while others looked pissed.
"These bastards sound like cowards."
"Ronald Weasley language!"
"Sorry mum." Ron mumbled to his mother who nodded accepting his forgiveness.
"So how'd you end up here exactly?" Arthur asked and Adam spoke up.
"Mother's doing."
"And that's all he's given on the matter." I sighed and looked to the boy. "We're with everyone now, can you please explain what actually happened?" Adam seemed to think very hard on it before sighing.
"It is unclear to me as well," he said looking to his hands that were folded on the table, "I remember working hard in the field with father and turning to see my family appearing over through the trees that surrounded the house. I remember hearing mother's voice asking me to come inside to wash up. Father's laugh filled the air as he tried to keep me outside a little longer. Mother had just glared and repeated what he told me to do causing father to let me go and I ran to mother."
Adam seemed to be squeezing his hands to keep himself calm as he spoke. "Mother's hand on my back gently pushed me into the house where I went to the room mother had made for us 'to go' as he always put it to wash up-."
"Wait when we were there all we saw in that room was a pot for when you had to go." I pointed out and Adam actually laughed.
"It wasn't like mother used magic for everything. Mother had put another pot in there farthest corner of the room to wash our hands and face in. You probably didn't even think to look for it because the pot you saw sits in the middle of the room. We'd just use the pond for baths every night." I nodded then and let him continue.
"As I was saying. I was washing up when I heard a lot of yelling and the sound of things hitting the floor. I had slowly left the room and looked around the corner to see mother holding his swords glaring at men I'd never seen before." He paused there and looked up at us.
"What happened then?" Hermione asked gently while trying to not cry.
Adam sighed and looked back to his hands. "Mother started talking to the two in the front that I could only guess were Crassus and Caesar. My parents told me tales of them, though not all their time at war was spoken of. Even when mother showed me his memories, they held little detail just enough to know what the enemies look like." He said and even the rebel leaders looked to Adam interested.
I guess they didn't know what had happened before they got to the house either.
"Do you know what they spoke of?" Laeta asked Adam.
"It was not clear." Adam said as his brow tightened in obvious confusion. "Crassus mentioned something quietly to mother, which made him look angrier than he already was, before trying to take a step to him." Adam looked back to us then.
"Father always told me it was our job to watch over mother, so I had stepped out of the shadows to challenge the Romans."
"What?!" the rebel leaders yelled not liking what they had just heard.
Adam flinched then looked down once more. "It was my mother what was I supposed to do?!"
"Your mother is more powerful than he lets show child." Naevia said.
Adam sighed. "We can speak later of the matter, but I must finish my tale if we are to get the aid we seek." The rebel leaders didn't look happy but agreed anyways and let the boy continue.
"Mother attacked then, even killed three of them, but two had snuck behind him and managed to get him to his knees while I found myself within the arms of both Crassus and Caesar." Adam sighed once more and quickly wiped at his eyes trying to not cry.
"Mother began to beg for my release. All they did was laugh and mentioned something about keeping promises made."
"What promise?" Crixus asked.
"I do not know. Though, mother and father rarely spoke of the war. I believe they were speaking of a time when it was only my parents and the men holding me, but I am not certain." Adam looked to Crixus then. "All I know is that once those words were spoken mother had tensed and dropped his swords as he smiled at me and promised everything would be fine. That's when you guys appeared."
"And Crassus and Caesar suddenly released their hold upon you and we pulled you to us." Nasir finished and Adam nodded.
"Harry told us to remain safe and there was a loud pop and the last thing I saw before I fell to my dreams was Harry's arm being forced behind him and then forced to stand while Romans ran to try and halt our escape." Agron said then looked to us. "When we all awoke we were still at the farm."
"Only in this time." Remus said and they all nodded.
"What makes you certain your parents are alive?" Minerva asked.
"Because of this," Adam said and pulled out a beautiful locket. It was silver and tear shaped with a matching silver chain that had the locket hanging at his upper stomach if he wasn't holding it. "Mother put a tracker on it, as well as their wedding rings. This way no matter how far the three of us are from each other, we can feel each other through them. Mother's is a gentler warmth while father's is a strong warmth. I can still feel them both."
"What if you can't feel them anymore?" Neville asked and all the rebel leaders tensed.
"Hopefully it only means the rings were taken off." Adam mumbled.
Everyone paled then understanding what he meant.
"Some things still don't make since to me," Remus said causing everyone to look at him, "Well for one thing all those paintings we found. You guys never gave a name to the artist." Adam smirked then and shrugged.
"I like to paint." My mouth hit the floor then, as did Remus'
"You?!" we asked together.
"What? I like to draw and mother said it was amazing how I could draw when he couldn't." he was smiling as he spoke but it slowly left as he looked to the table. "I just wish he was here to see them hanging up in this time with me. It's weird to see ones work that they made hundreds of years ago hanging up on a modernized wall, but it's still cool and I wish mother and father were here to see it."
I gave the boy a sad smile before looking back to my mate as he spoke.
"So then, if you just said you don't really know the whole story of the war, how'd they get so detailed? Most look as if someone was painting them as they happened." Adam blushed deeply then and looked to his aunts and uncles.
"The rest of us felt the child should know in greater detail just how his parents impacted history. While our brothers went to town to gather supplies together we allowed the child to see a little more detail within our thoughts. When they arrived back later that night Adam was drawing what he had witnessed." Crixus said then suddenly flinched and held onto his left shoulder.
"Harry was not pleased to see his child's work. He demanded to know where he had gained such knowledge and ran after us. Most got new scars that night." He finished causing Agron to rub his right forearm and Gannicus rubbed his right shoulder.
I blinked a few times before laughing hard.
The rebel leaders, and Adam, laughed right along with me then.
"A full month had passed before they were allowed to return to our home." Adam said looking to the rebel leaders fondly. "Even father got in trouble that night. He made the mistake at laughing and trying to calm mother down and he sided with all them. Father slept in the living area for that whole month as well." I laughed harder then at the mental image of Spartacus actually being made to sleep on the couch rather than in his bed.
The others laughed then too, only for everyone to become sober at the sound of someone coming into the house through floo.
"Apologies for being so later Headmaster. I was making a potion and I needed to stir it very slowly for a half hour in order for it to properly mix we-." Snivellus paused midsentence when he saw the new people around the table.
"Headmaster what are all these Muggles doing here?"
"You must be Professor Snape." Adam said drawing said man's attention.
"What of it boy?" Adam smirked then.
"Mother spoke of you, although his stories do not give your nose justice. It's much bigger than he described." As soon as he spoke everyone around the table burst into fits of laughter while Snivellus turned red from anger and glared at Adam.
If anyone needed more proof that this boy was Harry's son, they now had it.
"And just who do you think you are to speak to me like that?" Snivellus growled.
Adam's smirk grew as he straightened himself.
"I'm Adam Alexander Potter, son of Harry and Spartacus, nice to meet you." If it was possible, Snivellus got even paler at hearing the boy's name.
"Not possible." Was all he said and looked to Albus for answers.
Albus just smiled and motioned to the empty seat beside him. "Have a seat my boy, I shall get you caught up on all you missed." Snivellus walked to the open seat and Albus told him everything he missed.
A few minutes later Snivellus looked to the rebel leaders. "So, instead of properly killing himself, Potter went back in time and fought in that war leaving us to rot then went and spread his legs and popped out a kid?" wrong choice of words.
Before anyone from our time could react, Snivellus was pulled from his seat and pinned to the wall so high that his feet weren't touching the ground.
"Speak poorly of my brother once more, and you will find my sword in your belly." Crixus growled deeply.
Looking around even I couldn't fight the slight fear I felt at seeing all the rebel leaders standing with their weapons ready and glaring at Snivellus.
Snivellus even hesitated before opening his mouth. "Potter left this time behind to deal with a war he was supposed to help in. Instead of staying here he selfishly through himself at the Veil then helped out in another war when he failed to kill himself like he obviously wanted. I will not apologize for being angry." Crixus growled and reached for his own sword then.
"Uncle." Crixus paused then and looked to Adam who looked like he was both angry and upset. "He's not worthy enough to taste your sword." Was all he said. Crixus actually visibly calmed and slowly lowered Snivellus.
When the man tried to move however, Crixus grabbed his arm and forced the sleeves up.
"The Dark Mark," Crixus said looking from it to Snivellus, "You are the man who was the spy for the Light side. Harry spoke of you, of all of you, as well as this Voldemort who causes such troubles. He also spoke of a prophecy tying Harry to Voldemort making all who knew of it believe he was the only one who could end the war." Crixus pulled Snivellus closer then.
"The difference in the wars he was involved in is that Harry joined ours willingly to aid in our freedom of slavery. Your war was forced upon a mere child because of some words and a scar placed upon head. He tried to end his life to be released from the stress you placed upon him and instead found all of us." Crixus pointed to the other rebels then.
"Every single member of this family would not be drawing breath right now had Harry not found his way to us." He turned to all of us then while still holding a struggling Snivellus. "Harry belongs to our family now, and we need your aid and bringing him, and Spartacus, back to us." He released Snivellus then who stomped back to his chair while the rebel leaders sat down as well.
"And they shall be brought back to us." He said emphasizing 'us'.
The silence that followed after that incident was an awkward one before Albus spoke up.
"I apologize on Severus' behalf for his behavior. He spoke from the stress our own war has placed on all of us."
"And from a childish rivalry." I mumbled so all Remus could hear me. Remus did hear me and gently nudged me and sent me a small glare and I shut up then.
"And I apologize for my uncle's behavior. When it comes to any of us he gets very protective. They all get that way actually." Adam said and Albus nodded at him.
"Now then," Albus said officially changing the subject, "What else should we know about all of you?"
"Nothing that is deemed important at the present time." Adam said looking right at Albus as if daring him to make him tell anything else.
Albus sighed but nodded and turned to the rest of us. "It appears that is all we will be getting from them today. With that said, what opinions are running through everyone's head?"
Silence followed his question for a few minutes before Remus broke it.
"I've already planned on helping them."
"As have I." I added.
"But to actually get back in time is the difficult part. We'll need to figure out how to do that." Remus continued and smiled at Adam when he received a bright smile from the boy.
Molly sighed causing us to look at her.
"It doesn't sound possible you two." I could only stare at the woman in shock.
"What's that supposed to mean exactly?" I asked in a calm voice that I could tell scared many around the table.
"She means that it might not even be possible for us to get back in time you mutt. And even if we figured out how there is no guarantee that we'll end up in the time period we need. Plus, we have our own war to finish. One that Mr. Potter so clearly left us to handle ourselves." Snivellus said and I growled at him.
"Severus is right." That stopped me from actually leaving my seat as I turned to Albus. "There is no guarantee that we will end up back in their time period like we need too. Also with this war still going on, and seeming to only be getting worse, it would probably not be wise to have many of us leave right now."
I looked around at the others and saw that most were looking down in guilt or just looking around the room. Regardless, it was obvious they all agreed.
"You're joking, right Albus? Please, tell me you're bloody joking!"
"Sirius it's just too big of a risk. Plus, we don't even know for sure they're alive." Arthur tried to reason.
"I can still feel their trackers through mine as I just said!" Adam yelled causing everyone to look to him. "I may be a child and I know you are known to not take them seriously, if how you treated mother and me just now proves anything, but if you were truly listening you would have heard my words! My mother wasn't in your world for long, but I know he risked everything to keep the ones he loved safe. Even if he felt like nothing but a mere weapon most of the time. Now he is in the hands of those who wish him as much harm as the man you now face once did and in need of your aid yet you would sit by and let harm fall upon him and father!"
Everyone around the table could do nothing but stare at the boy in shock before slowly lowering their heads one by one as Adam's words sunk in as well as the guilt that came with them.
Albus sighed for what felt like the umpteenth time that day and looked to the rebels and Adam.
"Let us all discuss it further. I cannot promise anything, but regardless if you let us have some time to talk about it you will have an answer by morning."
Adam looked to his aunts and uncles who just nodded at him and Crixus spoke up. "An answer now would be appreciated, yet you have agreed to let thought into mind and discuss it further. For that we shall accept the answer in the morning." With that they all stood and went to leave.
"Know this however," Adam said and turned to us, "time passes differently between the time periods. The ending of a single day within this time is the ending of a week within the past. We have been from that time a week now. My parents have been within the clutches of Romans for nearly a month to a little over a month. So an answer as fast as possible would be even better than tomorrow morning."
Most paled, including myself and Remus, at those words and looked around at each other clearly thinking harder on the matter.
"Well then, let us begin deciding if Mr. Potter is worth going back in time for during a war." Snivellus said causing both me and my mate to growl at him.
ABOUT TWO HOURS LATER
Adam's POV:
"I gave voice to not giving trust to these people, yet they went unheard and now we may never free our brothers!" Naevia growled as she paced in front of the lit fireplace in the living area.
"What choice did we have aunt Naevia? Mother, I'm more than sure, didn't mean to send us so far in time. I'm willingly to bet all he was thinking was 'I must protect them and get them far from Roman grasp' and that's how we ended up here. Mother is just too protective sometimes and his magic sending us to here proves it."
My aunt stopped to look at me. "Dear nephew I am aware your mother did not mean to send us to the future. Yet it is done and we are now unable to aid either of them without the aid of the people who did not appreciate him while he was in their arms. The mere thought sends chills up back." She said and I just sighed knowing I wasn't going to get through to her and looked to my uncle.
"Uncle Crixus you try and reason with her."
"My thoughts mirror her own." I groaned then and slumped back onto the couch giving up.
"This is the perfect example of how and why mother suffered from headaches almost all the time." I mumbled but uncle heard me causing him to turn a glare on me and for uncle Gannicus, who I am certain heard my words as well, to laugh loudly.
"Her words were spoken in reason young one. These people are not to be trusted." I just sighed once more at his words then looked around at the rest of my family to see that their own thoughts too mirrored my aunt's and uncle's
"Alright fine how about this," I began gaining their attention, "we get them to help us but only help us. Once we've saved my parents we send them on their way. They're going to have to figure out how to get us back in time right? Which means they're also going to know how to get back to their time period. Once my parents are back with us we force them to leave our time."
I could see my family thinking over my words before I gained nods from them all.
"Good, glad we can agree on something for once these whole week." At that they all laughed.
Uncle Nasir went to speak his mind when the door leading to the dining area opened. We all turned and stood when Sirius and Remus appeared.
Sirius sighed before looking at us. "Well, I can't really say what the final decision is really. It's still going back and forth, but I'm thinking it'll end in your favor. Albus just gave us a ten minute break to think on it some more on our own so we figured we'd get you all caught up."
I smiled at them and nodded my thanks.
"Gratitude, for bringing such news to our attention." Uncle Agron said and they both nodded.
"Harry is our Godson, our pup in all but blood, and if he needs us then we'll do anything in our power to help."
"Even if it is without the rest of your people?" aunt Laeta asked.
Sirius and Remus just looked to her. "I know you lot don't trust us because of what Harry's told you all. I can't say I blame you. I've felt nothing but guilt and sorrow the whole time Harry's been gone. I just keep wishing I'd seen the signs earlier. Maybe then he wouldn't've tried to kill himself." Sirius said leaning on the other man for support.
I turned and saw all of my family relaxing their tense bodies and I sighed in relief.
Trust had been given to the men before us.
Uncle Crixus suddenly moved and placed hand upon Sirius' shoulder causing all to feel shock enter them.
"I can see you two care greatly for Harry and feel true guilt for what has happened. For that, you have our trust." I could see both Sirius and Remus relax then as well and I smiled at them.
"Though, I cannot allow myself to form false thoughts that I do not wish Harry to have done what he did." Both men blinked and looked to me which I just shrugged.
"He's saying that he won't lie and say that he wishes mother hadn't killed himself." Both nodded then and looked to the others.
"You know, you lot are hard to understand at times." That got my family laughing.
"As are you and your people. Were it not for our brother we would not be able to speak to one another. For we have grown accustom to his weird speech. Same with our nephew." Uncle Crixus said and the men before us laughed then.
"Sirius, Remus, Albus wants the meeting to start again!" Molly called from the dining area.
"We'll let you know what's been decided as soon as we learn anything." With that they rushed back down the steps.
I turned to my family then and sat back down only to curl up on aunt Naevia's lap and fell into my dreams.
"Young one," I jumped some at suddenly being awoken and looked over to uncle Crixus as he shook me, "they are coming." He said.
I sat up and looked to the door as it opened and saw Albus, Remus, Sirius, and Severus all walking to us.
"Where are the others?" I asked.
"I had them stay in the kitchen for the time being." Albus said.
"Why?" I asked.
"Because we have decided on the answer." Severus sneered and I just glared at him.
"Do not pester Severus." Albus calmly warned before looking back to us.
"What say you then?" Uncle Agron asked stepping forward some.
The four men before us just stared before Albus sighed.
"Though I do not know how we will do this, the Order has agreed to help you save your parents." Relief entered me and I returned aunt Laeta's hug when she rushed to squeeze between me and aunt Naevia in happiness. "However," we all stopped celebrating then and looked to Albus, "we cannot agree to this without putting our own war into play as well."
"What is your meaning?" uncle Nasir asked.
Albus looked to him then but it was Severus who answered.
"He means the only way we will help you save Potter and his husband is if you agree to return to this time and help win our war."
PLEASE READ: So what did you think? Not the best opening to a sequel I know but it'll get better I promise! I'll also be answering unanswered questions from the first story throughout this one. Wouldn't be exciting if I answered them all in one chapter now would it?:p I do want at least four reviews before I put the second chapter up just so I know what people are thinking. Hopefully some of you like this one and sorry once more for taking so long in getting it up. There was more I wanted to say but I can't remember them right now. So look for them at the beginning of the next chapter. Until then!:)
