The Headmaster's office was unfamiliar to me. Contrary to popular belief, I had never been here before.

"So, can someone please explain the meaning of this?" the Headmaster asked as we all took our seats.

His eyes lingered on me, so I felt obliged to start first, "Potter stole a picture, either from me or my father, and he claims that it's his parents. Which it's obviously not. Unless my mother had a Mudbl-" I grimaced, seeing the raised eyebrow of the Headmaster. "Muggleborn twin. So I'm asking Potter to give the picture back so I can unruin it and-"

"I see," the Headmaster interrupted, his eyes lingering on my father for a second before turning to Potter. "And you?"

"Professor Snape and her have kidnapped my mother," he insisted.

I snorted, "That's ridiculous! I'd never kidnap your Mud-"

"Enough," the Headmaster interrupted me, and I could see the annoyance on his face. I shut up. "Harry."

"You saw her Howler, sir," Potter started. "They've kidnapped her and brainwashed her and-"

"Harry, please, calm down," the Headmaster stated calmly.

"We wouldn't go through the trouble, Potter," I assured him. "Maybe your father kidnapped my mother?"

"Don't you dare talk about my father!" Potter cried, standing.

"Then don't insinuate such things about my father and I," I returned coldly.

"Then don't say such things-"

"Enough!" Dumbledore interrupted Potter. At least he wasn't picking favorites.

My father grabbed my shoulder and shoved me down into my chair. I shot him a look, but saw the amusement on his face. "Sir, tell Potter how he's wrong so I can go back to my breakfast."

"Headmaster, tell her how she's wrong so I can go to the Owlery."

"I'm afraid you're both wrong," the Headmaster stated simply.

I shot a smug look at Potter the same moment he shot a smug look at me. I scowled at him then, and glanced at the Headmaster.

"You see," he continued. "Lily wasn't kidnapped."

I scowled, "Exactly. My mother's name is Evangeline."

"No, it's not," my father told me. "Her name is Lily. Lily Evans-Potter-Snape."

I blinked at my father, "But she's a Ravenclaw. Her name is Evangeline Orchid Lyles. She's a Halfblood... She's in hiding because the Dark Lord said so... right?"

"I'm afraid, Miss Snape, that we all decided it was best to stick with that story."

"Best?" I asked. "Best for who? You've all made me look like a fool out there. I have a - a-" I couldn't finish. "She's not even my mother?"

"She is your mother," Dumbledore told me gently. "She's also Harry's mother."

I glanced at my father, "What, are you not my father? Is that what we're getting to?"

"No... I'm your father. Potter's Potter's," my father said.

"So... Mum cheated on you?" I asked, glancing at Potter. "You've been married since your seventh year."

"That's what they told you!" Potter cried. "My mother and father have been together since their seventh year. They got married a few years later."

"No, my parents got married a year out of Hogwarts," I told him.

"Professor!" we said at the same time. Only I was referring to my father, and Potter to the headmaster.

"Lily Evans married James Potter," Dumbledore said quietly. "In 1979. Harry James Potter was born July 31st, 1981..."

I sat back down, "So Mum cheated on Potter."

"I came to warn them that it wasn't safe, that they should move. Potter didn't believe me," my father said. "He went to an Order meeting... I tried to convince your mother to move."

"Convince her," I snorted.

"You were born nine months later," my father stated, not ashamed.

I glanced at the three men in the room before grinning wickedly at my father, "Nice. I take it that's why I'm in Slytherin? Deception and all that are the core of my being."

"How dare you-" Harry started to say to Snape.

I interrupted, "So, wait... what happened? Why... why is Potter the Boy-Who-Lived?"

"Potter didn't listen to me. He insisted that I was Sirius Black, using polyjuice potion. I left before he arrived back at Godric's Hallow, hoping they would heed my advice. Halloween that year... I got the news. I went there immediately and... Lily was lying on the ground in front of Potter's crib. Potter was gone, so I thought the Dark Lord had suceeded. I ..." My father stopped, "I checked Lily's pulse and by some miracle, she was alive. She had been knocked out."

I bit my lip, "So Potter... Potter was gone? The Dark Lord was gone..?"

"Yes."

"When we checked the house, no one was alive," Dumbledore said. "We took Harry to his Aunt and Uncles... Lily Potter wasn't alive, and neither was James when we removed Harry."

I noticed something about this story, "Wait, where was I? You mention Potter, Potter Sr, my mother, but not me."

"You were in the other room... The Dark Lord overlooked your presence as a request of mine," Snape said quietly. "I asked for him to spare your mother... and if Lily's memory is accurate, which it is, he did follow my request. She refused to move. He didn't feel the need to check the other rooms. Potter was all the Dark Lord was after. When Lily was roused..."

"She noticed Potter gone and went to check for me," I said quietly, finishing the story. He nodded. "And when she found me, she went to check on Potter's dad... and found him dead."

My father nodded once more.

"I got a patronus from Severus and was quite surprised," Dumbledore stated. "But I knew the Dark Lord would return... So we decided what was best."

"Was best? For who?" Potter asked. "You sent me to my aunt and uncle who hate magic! I didn't even know I was a wizard until Hagrid showed up!"

I glanced at my father, before looking at the Headmaster, "I'd like to be dismissed, sir. I... I need to get some air."

"Yes, I do believe we're done here. I ask, Orpha, that you don't repeat this to anyone. It is of upmost importance that the Dark Lord doesn't find out, nor any of the other Death Eaters."

"I won't tell anyone, sir," I promised. He nodded at me and I took that as my leave to go. I rose and nearly bolted out of the office.

Merlin's beard, I was related to Potter...
