Epilogue:

Harry was excited from that day afterwards to go to Hogwarts. August seemed to go by so slowly for him that he could not stand it.

"Uncle Sirius is it September yet?" Harry would moan at the dinner table almost every night.

"Not yet Harry, now eat your supper." Sirius said every time afterwards.

Harry would eat then go to bed and mark the day off on his calendar till September 1st. He read his books every day and was most interested in his Defense Against the Dark Arts textbook. It was like an addiction to him I will master this subject. I don't want Mum and Dad to have died in vain I will get good at Defense Against the Dark Arts. Harry thought of his parents each time he read the books and was more concerned about that than the racing broom that Sirius promised for passing his first year exams.

The day before the trip to Hogwarts was the only day since Harry got his wand that he didn't ask if it was September yet. As they ate their dinner quietly that day Sirius looked up at him, "You packed yet Harry?"

"Oh gosh no!" Harry said smacking himself.

"Well follow me Harry! I'll help you pack!" Sirius smiled and waved his wand in every direction. "Where are your robes?"

"In the closet!" Harry said and Sirius would then summon them into Harry's trunk.

"Books?"

"On the desk!" Harry pointed to where he kept his books and they flew neatly into the trunk as well. "Gee Uncle Sirius that was awesome."

"You'll learn that too. I learned it in my 4th year, summoning charms. I think with study you may be able to pick up on them sooner than that. Your father and mother were both brilliant in their days at Hogwarts. You may just end up being as good as they were if not better if you keep up the studying Harry!" Sirius said putting his wand away. "Now it is time for bed. We have to rise up early to go to King's Cross tomorrow."

"Okay. Night Uncle Sirius." Harry said as Sirius left the room and sat down. Sirius went to his room and lay down and thought of all that he wished James was doing with him and Harry. It was like a part of them was missing and they both knew it. However he wouldn't trade it for the world. Sirius knew that this was what James wanted in the case of something happening to him and Sirius as James's friend to the grave and beyond would do it. The next day Harry woke up early. Sirius found him dressed and ready to go by 8 in the morning. Seeing as they lived in London, King's Cross was a walk away so Sirius conjured a cart for their trunk and Hedwig's cage and walked there. As they were in King's Cross they saw the Weasley family but Harry and Sirius just smiled and waved as they went on to Platform Nine and Three Quarters.

"Ready Harry?" Sirius asked as he started to run. "Come on! Can you keep up with me?

"Yes I can! Harry said running with him. Once on the platform he helped Harry pack his trunk and Hedwig onto the train into his compartment.

"See you at Christmas." Sirius said hugging Harry.

"See you at Christmas too Uncle Sirius." Harry said as he hugged back. Sirius left the train as it started to whistle to go. "Bye!" He yelled as the train started to leave.

"Bye! I'll miss you! Remember Hagrid's invited you for tea Friday!" Sirius yelled waving as he ran after the train.

"Bye! I'll miss you too! I know!" Harry yelled back to Sirius. Sirius kept running after the train as it left the station until it was well out of sight. He put his hands down and once Harry was long gone he smiled to himself and knew that this was a promise well kept.
