October 31st 1981 - Godric's Hollow

Sirius Black couldn't believe his eyes. Godric's Hollow was in ruins. He could see James and Lily's bodies. They were dead. Worst of all everyone would think he did it. Harry started crying. Sirius' head snapped up. He started digging through the remains of his best friend's house, till he found his godson. He gasped softly when he saw the bleeding lightning bolt on the 1-year-old's head.

"Sirius," said a voice behind him as a large hand was placed on his shoulder. Sirius turned around to see Hagrid. The half-giant had tears streaking down his face. Sirius knew he was crying too, but couldn't remember when he started.

"Sirius," said Hagrid, after calming down a bit, "Dumbledore wants th' boy ta go ta his aunt an' uncle's house. He'll be safe there."

"Let me spend a few more hours with him please," begged Sirius, loosing hope quickly

"Alrigh' Sirius," said Hagrid, taking pity on the younger man," but only a few." Sirius sighed in relief and realized that Hagrid didn't know about the Fidilius Charm. He needed a plan. "Thanks," he said," Uh…Hagrid…do you think you could do me a favor?"

"O' course, Sirius. Anything," said the over emotional half-giant.

"Could you go to Gringotts (Sp?) and clean out my vault?"

"Sure, Sirius. But tha's a lot o' money."

"I know. Here's the key. Thanks again."

"No problem, Sirius," said Hagrid as he took the key.

"Take my bike," said Sirius, "I'll apparate to my place."

"Okay," said Hagrid as he hopped on the bike and took off.

3 hours later

Sirius was writing a note to Hagrid. He didn't like lying to the half-giant, but no way in hell was his godson going to live with magic hating muggles. He could hear the half-giant coming up the stairs. He left the note on his desk, then quickly grabbed a sleeping Harry and got under his invisibility cloak. James wasn't the only one with a cloak, and having to seemed to help a lot with pranks. Hagrid came in and set down two bags half his size on the floor with a 'thump'.

"Sirius," called Hagrid, "We're are ya?" He started to walk to the kitchen, when he spotted the note.

Hagrid,

Wanted to spend more time with Harry, so I took him to Hogwarts. Maybe I can convince Dumbledore to let me take care of him. Thanks for getting my money for me.

Sirius

"Guess I better go then," said Hagrid, before writing "no problem" on the note and apparating back to Hogwarts. Sirius quickly packed everything he could fit into his bag (AN: Which is just about everything since he's a wizard. : D) He levitated the moneybags to the sidecar in his bake and put his bag on top. He ran back inside and grabbed Harry, who was just now beginning to wake up.

"Pa-foot," said Harry looking into Sirius' eyes.

"I'm right here, kiddo," said Sirius.

"Mama…Dada," said Harry, twisting around in Sirius grip, looking for Lily and James. Sirius just kept quite as he got on the bike with Harry and sped off into the night.

With Hagrid

Hagrid apparated to the outskirts of Hogwarts. He met Dumbledore half way across the lawn.

"Where's Harry," asked Dumbledore.

"Sirius said 'e was bringin' 'em," said Hagrid. He color drained from Dumbledore's face. "Wa's wrong professor?"

"Sirius Black is the reason the Potters are dead," said Dumbledore in a shaky voce. It was Hagrid's turn to go pale. He ran out of the apparation barrier, and apparated back to Sirius' flat. Everything was gone except the note he had read earlier. Dumbledore apparated in.

"'Es gone professor. His money too.," said Hagrid, before bursting into tears. Just then they heard the roar of a motorcycle. They ran to the window and saw Sirius speeding away. Dumbledore took out his wand and shot a stoping spell. The bike shut down in mid air, and started falling towards the ground.

"Shit," cursed Sirius, "Hang on, Harry." He started the bike back up and presed the red button. (AN: Think of the red button in Men in Black that Agent Jay just had to press). The bike sped off into the night faster than Dumbledore could shoot another spell.
