A/N: First off I am so so so so so sorry for not updating in so long! I know you don't want to hear my excuses but I am warning you, I won't be able to update for at least three weeks after this. (I'll be away and without a computer.) But I plan on finishing the first book right now. So you'll have that. I was thinking about taking a little break from the story (like a small intermission) and typing up some of the one-shots that I've written. But After that I'll start on Chamber of Secrets. Oh and a question that I'll ask at the end too...do you guys like how its just James and Lily watching Harry and dictating everything that he's doing? If not, now should I change it? Thanks! And all the reviews mean so much to me! Without further ado I present...

The Disclaimer!: I own nothing. :( ok ok here's the chapter...

Chapter 10: V-Voldemort?

No sooner than the kids had frozen Neville, they had reached Fluffy. They noticed a harp gently playing a lullaby, they reasoned that someone had already passed through and was ahead of them. Harry played the flute he brought when the harp mysteriously stopped playing and Fluffy went straight back to sleep. The three kids quietly slipped by the huge dog and went through the trap door.

But they weren't safe yet. They landed in a tentacle like plant. It quickly started to wrap around the kids.

"What the bloody hell is that?" I asked Lily.

"It's Devil's Snare." she explained, and just like when we were back in school she gave me a nice dictionary definition. "Devil's Snare is a plant with magical properties. Its power is the ability to constrict or strangle its surrounding environment. Struggling or resistance to Devil's Snare will cause the plant to exert a greater force of constriction."

I just sighed and looked at Lily. "You haven't changed."

She smiled at me. "If they'd just use fire they'd be right out of there."

But it seems they were trying to riddle it out.

"Devil's Snare, Devil's Snare...what did Professor Sprout say? - it likes the dark and damp." Hermione explained to Harry. The two had gotten free of the plant but Ron was still struggling and he was getting suffocated slowly.

"So light a fire!" Harry said exasperatedly .

"Yes - of course – but there's no wood!" she cried.

"HAVE YOU GONE MAD? ARE YOU A WITCH OR NOT?" a voice from above called.

Hermione quickly burned the plant that was holding Ron and he fell in a heap onto the floor next to them.

"Merlin, that Hermione reminds me so much of you." I told Lily.

She laughed. "And our son reminds me of you."

"Well there's nothing wrong with that!"

"Never said there was," she joked.

The kids walked down the dark hallway until they came across a large locked door in a room full of – were those keys with wings?

There was a broom in the room. Harry quickly jumped on, and several of the keys started flying around his head and attacking him. While swatting them away with one arm, Harry chased after one particular key with a broken wing. Of course being the youngest Seeker in a century had its advantages. He quickly, and easily, caught the key and gave it to Hermione. She unlocked the door and the kids quickly shut the keys back in the room they belonged in.

The next room looked like a chess board. In fact it was a chess board. They were going to have to play their way across the board. And it was wizards chess, so naturally, it was violent.

Much to Lily's dismay, Ron led his side masterfully through the game. But he had to give himself up, so that Harry could checkmate the king. Although Harry and Hermione tried to protest, he wouldn't hear it. He was captured and severely beaten down by the opposing queen. It was disgusting to watch. He was only eleven. Lily and I cringed as he was flung off to the side of the board where he was writhing in pain. Harry won the game and he and Hermione left Ron to continue to the Stone.

The next thing they came upon was a logic puzzle. Next to me, Lily riddled it out and was sitting on the edge of her seat to see if she was right. Hermione picked up two potions ("I was right!" Lily exclaimed.) She drank one to allow herself to go back to help Ron. And Harry drank the other to move forward to find the Stone.

He was all alone now.

"He's really brave," I mused out loud.

"Yes, he certainly is."

"I wouldn't have been able to do this in my first year!"

"I'd be nervous doing it now," Lily exclaimed.

But silence fell over us as Harry walked into a room with the Mirror of Erised, and Quirrell. Quirrell explained to Harry that it was him and not Snape as everyone thought. A strange but familiar voice told Quirrell to use Harry. So Quirrell grabbed Harry and threw him in front of the mirror.

I felt a familiar tug on my stomach.

Lily and I were behind the glass of the mirror again. But the Harry in between us was now moving. He reached into his pocket and pulled out the stone, then winked. Harry looked up at me and Lily and I nodded. You're is strong enough to do this. I thought.

When Quirrell asked Harry what he saw, he quickly lied saying that he saw himself winning toe house cup for Gryffindor. The voice spoke again as Lily and I returned to our house. We watched as Quirrell's turban was unwrapped to reveal...

"Is that V-Voldemort?" Lily asked shrieking at the sight.

"I'm afraid it is." I had expected this, I recalled the voice from so long ago.

Voldemort had been using Quirrell's body to sustain life. He tried to persuade Harry to give him the Stone, which he knew was in Harry's pocket, rather than resist and be killed like Lily and I.

Harry refused, and Voldemort instructed Quirrell to grab him.

But as soon as he touched Harry, his hand blistered as if he was being burned.

Harry grabbed Quirrell's face, putting him in tremendous pain.

As the struggle wore on, Harry lost hold of Quirrell and fell.

He lost consciousness and Lily and I watched as Quirrell was not able to touch Harry or the Stone. Dumbledore soon arrived, saving Harry from most likely would have been death, and lily and I decided not to watch anymore.

"Our son just battled Voldemort," I said slowly.

"And he...he won" Lily added.

"Again." I said in shock slightly still.

"Again?"

"At Godric's Hollow. Yes, you protected him. But no one knows that. Everyone thinks Harry destroyed Voldemort." I expalined.

"He's going to be a hero." Lily said.

"He already is."

Lily and I watched as Harry regained consciousness, usually parents would be there with their kids but we couldn't exactly do that, so we watched from above. Harry wasted no time before asking about the Stone. Dumbledore told him that he had arrived to save him just in time, and that he had spoken to Nicolas Flamel and the Sorcerer's Stone would be destroyed.

Dumbledore then began to explain why Professor Quirrell was not able touch Harry. And it was because darling Lily died for him out of love. (Lily smiled bashfully.) He also revealed to Harry that it was him who gave my Invisibility Cloak to him for Christmas. When Harry asks about Snape he gently explains how Snape and I hated each other during our school years (which was all too true) much like Harry and Draco Malfoy had a little rivalry themselves. And lastly, Dumbledore explains how Harry got the Stone in the first place. Only one who wanted to find the Stone but not use it, could obtain it.

Harry was dismissed to go to the end-of-year feast. The Great Hall was decked out in Slytherin colors.

I stuck up my nose at that and Lily just laughed at me.

Dumbledore told everyone that, in light of recent events there are a few last minute points to be given out.

Ron Weasley was given fifty points for the best played game of wizard's chess that Hogwarts has ever seen.

Hermione Granger was given fifty points for the use of calm intellect in a tough situation.

And Harry Potter was given sixty points for pure bravery.

Suddenly, Gryffindor was tied with Slytherin for the house cup.

And then, Neville Longbottom was awarded ten points for standing up to his friends.

And Gryffindor won the House Cup.

I jumped out of my seat and applauded, while Lily laughed at me but was grinning proudly herself.

Oh only if Alice and Frank knew...

The school year finally came to a close and the goodbyes were bittersweet.

But before boarding the train, Hagrid gives Harry a photo album. Inside there were pictures of me and Lily. And Harry too.

It was so thoughtful. Lily got tears in her eyes from the sight of Harry's face when he sat down and said, "So this is my mum and dad."

"Yes Harry, that's us." I whispered softly.

A/N: Slightly shorter chapter than usual, but let me know what you think of it! (The definition of Devil's Snare I got from harrypotter . wikia . Com /wiki / Devil's_Snare (minus the spaces).

Oh and again, do you guys like how its just James and Lily watching Harry and dictating everything that he's doing? If not, now should I change it? Thanks a million! And it probably will be a little while before I start on Chamber of Secrets, but keep your eyes out for any one-shots!
