Story 2: Mysteries Revealed
Chapter 1: Welcome Home
Harry looked out the window as the ministry car slowed down. They all got out and Harry saw a small, white, one-story house before them. He saw his parents and Sirius smiling as the ministry worker unloaded their things from the car.
"I'll tell the Minister you got here all right."
"Thank you for everything." James told him.
"Looks a mite small, doesn't it?" Sirius looked at Harry.
"Yeah."
"Wait until you see the inside." They all walked inside and Harry was taken aback in surprise.
It may look small on the outside, but it was huge on the inside. It was a mansion. There was a big front foyer that led to a massive kitchen, and the living area was on the other side of the kitchen. A big winding staircase led up to six massive bedrooms and two bathrooms.
"Welcome to Potter Manor, Harry." James told him. "Come see the best part."
Harry followed Sirius and his dad to a door beyond the kitchen and opened it to see what was a smaller version of a quidditch pitch. And off in the distance, a small wooden structure.
"We couldn't have an actual-sized quidditch field, but this is perfect for practicing on." James said.
"What's that building?" Harry pointed.
"That's a tree house that my grandfather built for my dad. Then I used it. Now you can use it."
"This is cool."
"I know you want to explore." Lily came in. "But we all need to get situated before we do anything."
"That's fine. I don't have much anyway." Harry went up the carpeted steps and put his things in the first room.
Later, Harry went downstairs because he could smell dinner cooking. He found Sirius sitting in a chair in the living room.
"I wouldn't go in there just now if I were you."
"Because they're fighting?"
"We're not fighting." James came out.
"Then how come I could hear you guys all the way upstairs?"
"Maybe Harry can settle it for us." Lily came out.
"Run." Sirius mumbled.
"Do you think we should have muggle objects along with wizard objects?"
"Yes." Harry said firmly.
"Why?" James asked.
"You want my brother and sisters to be comfortable when they get here, don't you?"
"Yeah."
"They probably grew up in muggle orphanages. They're probably used to that stuff."
"Ok. We can have muggle things." James told them. "But no TV."
"Deal." Lily said. "Now come on into the kitchen. Supper is ready. And yes, it's muggle food."
"Macaroni and cheese." Harry smiled as he sat down.
"Huh?" Sirius looked at him.
"Noodles with cheese sauce." Lily said as she exchanged an amused look with Harry.
"This is going to take awhile." Harry mumbled.
"Hey. Give us time." James told them. "We're only used to Wizard ways of life."
"Do you guys know anything about my brother and sisters?" Harry looked at them all.
"I don't." Sirius told him. "I was in Azkaban."
"We don't know much about them either." James told him. "We had to give them up right after they were born."
"We know how old they are." Lily said. "Your brother will be turning eleven in a few weeks. And your twin sisters will be turning eight."
"So my brother will start Hogwarts next term?"
"Yes. Hopefully he'll be found in time."
"Me, too." Harry smiled.
That night, Harry went up to his room and fell right to sleep. James smiled at him from the doorway and closed the door as he saw Lily come up the stairs.
"He's sound asleep." He told her.
"I told him that he could invite Ron and his family over tomorrow."
"Good. He'll get to spend more time with his friends this summer. But we'll have to watch him and Ginny closely."
"He won't do anything that he shouldn't. Besides, Bill and Charlie are home for the summer. Six brothers to watch out for her."
"And to threaten our son."
"They won't threaten him." She led him down to their room. "He's like family to them."
"Speaking of family," James looked at her as they climbed into bed. "Did you see how Harry was when he was asking about his siblings? He's really anxious to find them."
"As am I. He just wants some company. And I think he's excited about having his brother at school with him."
"Hopefully, we'll hear from the Minister about them soon. I want to make sure they're ok."
"Yeah. Me, too." She turned out the light and they lay down to get some sleep.
AN: So there's the first chapter of the sequel. Hope you liked it. Small note: I'm not sure if they have a dish called macaroni and cheese over in England, or if they have a different name for it. But I'm from America, so I'm using food that I know. I just didn't want anyone to write something about it and make me feel stupid. Anyway, please R&R.
