Chapter four

Just as Harry was thinking about meeting his parents the door opened and James and Lily rushed in.

"What happened Albus is there something wrong with Emily?" Lily said. At the sound of Lily's voice Harry turned his head to look at her.

That was when Lily noticed Harry.

"What's going on" James said also noticing Harry.

"WHO IS THIS IMPOSTER?" Lily shouted after staring at him for ten seconds.

"This is no imposter y..." Dumbledore was cut off.

"THEN WHY DOES HE LOOK LIKE HARRY WOULD? WHAT IS GOING ON?"

She turned to look at Harry again and shouted "WHY ARE YOU DOING THIS?" That was when Lily burst into tears and James went to comfort her.

James turned to glare at Harry and said coldly "What kind of sick joke is this? You think it funny don't you? You Death Eaters make me sick don't you think it's enough what you did to us and now this, I hope they give you the dementor's kiss"

Harry just kept his head down and stared at his feet, he understood that they were upset about him being there as their Harry had died years ago but it still hurt him to hear his father say that to him.

James then turned to Dumbledore and said "What are you going to do with him?"

"Nothing" Dumbledore said

"What? You're going to stand there and do nothing? Can't you see Dumbledore? This is a Death Eater, you have to do something" James said

"Please just sit down and I shall explain everything" Dumbledore said

James and Lily sat across from Harry giving him cold stares. Harry just stayed where he was looking at his feet.

"The reason I brought you here is because of the war" James and Lily turned to face Dumbledore

"As you know we are not doing well in this war so I have found a solution" Dumbledore paused "But it concerns Harry"

"What do you mean? Harry's dead" James said giving Harry a look

"In this universe yes but in another he is alive. I'm sure you must have heard about Alternative universes" Dumbledore said

"You mean in another universe Harry lived but our Harry had to die" Lily said with tears coming to her eyes again

"No, Harry did not have to die but yes he is alive in another universe"

"But what does the war have to do with Harry?" James asked forgeting that Harry was still in the room.

"Well in his universe he is the Boy Who Lived and he has already fulfilled his purpose and killed Voldermort, but like Frank and Alice you died instead." Dumbledore stopped giving time the information to sink in.

While they talked Harry decided to take his chance and study his father. People were right, he did look like his father except for his eyes, they were Hazel. His hair was also messy like his and he was about two inches Taller than Harry. Even though he has pictures of his parents it wasn't the same as seeing them in the flesh. While he was looking at James he saw Lily staring at him. Harry looked back down at his feet again.

He thought this was going to be great, finally meeting his parents but they hated him and now he wished this never happened.

Lily noticed the Death Eater was looking at James and was about to unleash her anger to him, but when she looked into his eyes she could see they were sad and had some longing in them. She had also noticed they were green like hers. That got her thinking, what if Voldermort never killed him but kept him hostage all these years. The boy realised she was looking at him and he looked down again. What if it really was her baby boy who had come back? She had to find out.

"I'm going to go and get some fresh air, you can call me when you want me back" Harry said getting up ready to leave.

James was about to say something but Lily stopped him and stood up.

When Harry was about to reach the door someone said "Harry?" it was Lily, she spoke in a shaky voice looking at him

Harry was about to turn around but stopped himself. They were probably just talking about their Harry but then he heard Lily's voice again only close "Harry" she said again more confident than before.

Harry turned around to see Lily standing near him. James looked like he wanted to get Lily away from the boy but something inside him stopped him.

Harry looked at Dumbledore as if asking for his approval, he nodded so Harry turned to look at Lily and finding his voice he said "Yeah?"

"Is it really you?" she asked taking a step closer to him, he nodded

"Oh Harry" she cried, hugging him

James got up to and walked over to the two of them realising it really was their son.

"Harry" He said almost in disbelief

After a few seconds of staring at Harry he pulled Harry into a hug.

"You've grown so much, almost as tall as James" Lily said

"Yeah" James laughed standing next to him.

Lily gasped and, suddenly looking guilty, said "Oh I'm so sorry for shouting at you like that"

"It's ok, I understand you would be angry"

"Yes I'm sorry too, I shouldn't have said those things to you" James said

"Its fine" Harry said smiling at his parents, even though what his father had said hurt him it was good to know he was sorry and they had accepted him even though he is not their Harry.

Dumbledore watched as they had their reunion, Family is an important thing he thought especially in these dark times.

When they sat back down Lily said "how come Harry is here?"

"Ah yes, well you see as I said I had found a solution to our problem" Dumbledore said

"I had been doing some research and I found a spell. This spell would bring us a hero to help us with the war, and that hero is Harry"

"So you brought him here to help with the war?" James said

Dumbledore nodded "But he's only 17, he can't fight in the war plus we just got him back and I don't want to lose him again" Lily said holding Harry close to her

"I know, so I suppose it is now up to you whether he fights or not" Dumbledore said

"I've already said yes"

"Well we are saying no" Lily told him

"Well you said he has already killed Voldermort in his universe so I suppose he can help but no fighting" James said

"Yeah it's better than doing nothing" Harry said even though he wanted to fight.

"Ok that's settled now you can go home and get to know each other" Dumbledore said smiling

They all got up said their goodbyes to Dumbledore and left the room.
