"I am sure this is the place, I have got to go now Lucas", Jose embraces his godson one last time before disapparating. Lucas stared at the building for a while and look down at the small square paper that had "12 Grimmauld place" written on it. Placing his suitcase beside him, he sat on it, looking a little confused. The streets were dimly lighted up by the street lights. As well as what it seems to be an easy address to figure out, somehow the number twelve is missing.

"Lucas", a gruff voice called out to him. The building opened up into two and Professor Moody came out from it, he summoned Lucas over.

"I knew you will get lost", he said in a vile way, paying no attention to Lucas greeting.

"Well do you blame me?" he grumbled pulling out a badly drawn map and shoved it into Moody's hand.

"Fair enough", Moody crumpled the map and threw it into the air. Halfway through the air, the paper caught on fire burning it into ashes, "you know he can't draw".

Lucas snorted at Moody, "he?" he chuckled, while Moody hobbled alongside him frowning at his silly grin on his face, "you mean I?" Moody smashed his walking stick onto the ground and the wall behind him started to close up.

"You better learn some respect boy", he slammed the door opened and Lucas shrugged walking in as Moody held the door open with his walking stick. A tall and long, matted, black hair man stood at the long hallway which was lit up by a large chandelier and gas lamps. He bares his yellow teeth as he grinned at Lucas, he looked somewhat like his godfather, but he was taller and had broad shoulders.

"Lucas Wright?" he grin widens as Lucas lips curved a little and he kept looking back at Moody.

"Don't look at me boy, look at him! I am not Lucas Wright am I?" Moody said and squeezed pass Lucas and the man.

"Sorry, but do I know you?" Lucas asked.

"No, but I know Jose", he smiled and held his hand out, "I am Sirius Black".

Lucas took his hand and shook it; he smiled meekly, "it is an honor having an invitation from you sir".

"Jose told me all about you and that good lad was right", he said while Lucas chuckled lightly. A cat purred and rubbed against his leg. Lucas bends over and strokes the ginger cat while it purred loudly while Sirius looked at him fondly.

"Cat person are you?" Sirius said softly.

"No sir, but I treat cats with respect due to a certain person", he replied thinking about Professor McGonagall. Sirius nodded and pointed up the stairwell, "I am sure they are waiting for you".

"Thank you for having me again sir"

"Lose the formality Lucas, just call me Sirius"

Lucas smiled and walked up the stairs which was decorated by head of house-elves mounted on plagues. The stairs creaks at every step he took, reaching the first floor he stopped as he saw one of red headed young girl appearing from the second room.

"Ginny?" he looked at her, he knew her well enough to call her base on first name basis. He chatted with her a few times when he bumped into her, knowing well that Hermione was her best friend since Hermione was always seen around her.

"Lucas, when did you get here?" she smiled beautifully, Lucas just stood there awkwardly not knowing whether to embrace her because his hands were full with all the baggage, so he just stood there smiling.

"Just then, it is good to see you", he said and before he knew it Ginny wrapped her arms around his neck tightly. Somehow his neck hurts at the way she held it, he had to bend down a little and stood in an awkward position as he couldn't return the hug. The slight but loud warning cough saved his neck from cramping; he turned around to meet another red head.

"What the hell do you think you are doing?" Ron muttered angrily and squeezed his way between Lucas and Ginny.

"I was just giving him a friendly hug", Ginny replied back sharply but Ron wasn't convinced.

"Doesn't look like that to me", he snapped, pushing Ginny further away from Lucas.

"Not like I was snogging him!" Ginny snapped back and smack the back of Ron's head hard. Ron whimpered at the painful smacked and frowned at Ginny. Lucas placed his baggage down gently before pulling Ron close to him and gave him a bear hug.

"Ron!" he held him tight and Ron was gasping for air. Lucas let him go and held his face, looking at him straight in the eye, "so? Does that mean that I am in love with you?"

"Fine, you prove your point", Ron gasped and Ginny laughed at him. Ron glared at Ginny who just grinned at him and mock his intelligence. Standing there watching the two of them yelling at each other seems to enlighten Lucas a little, he never felt closer to home before. Actually, he never felt this feeling before, "reunion" he whispered softly and smiled to himself. Most of the time he had him family close by his side. Every night they would all gather together after a long day of work and school, he would play some boring board games with Jose and his mum or learn his spells with Minerva, Maurice and Jose. He never thought they would leave his side, until the day his mum died, that was when his heart shattered to pieces and although it was piece back slowly, somehow a part of him has died along with her. Lost and sad, he swore he would never be close to someone again. Remembering what he swore, he shook his head softly; he mustn't be too close to them.

The floor board creaks and somehow he heard a loud gasped. Turning around he saw Harry smiling at him and Hermione with her mouth hung wide open. Harry walked right up the Lucas and gave him the quick warm hug, "where have you been and when did you get here?"

Lucas watched Harry's emerald eyes sparkled. Lucas's eyes were much darker than his.

"I just got here and I have been living with Jose", he scrunched his eyebrow, "I did write to you".

"Yeah you did, just that Ron was quite worried about you", Harry said looking sideways and saw Ron giving him a glare.

"Ron? Being caring?" Lucas said sarcastically, "sorry, Ron didn't write to you, never thought you know how to write".

"I do know how to write", he snapped and then dropped his tone lower, "you never reply…" he pouted his mouth and mumbled.

"I didn't get any letters from you", Lucas narrowed his eyes, "are sure you sent one?"

"Yes I did…" he cut off and started mumbling angrily, "that bloody bird!"

"Did you use Errol again?" Ginny raised her eyebrows. Ron shifted his gaze elsewhere, he knows fairly well he wasn't supposed to use that retired owl. Ginny smacked Ron at the back of his head again which make him glare at her again. Lucas turned his attention to Hermione who has seems to froze in her spot.

"Are you okay?" Harry looked at her quizzically, he stepped aside waiting for Hermione to greet Lucas.

Hermione stood there still shocked at his presence, she shifted uncomfortably at Lucas gaze. Her heart pounded hard against her chest as Lucas inched closer to her. Pulling her closer to him, he wrapped his arms around her neck pressing her head against his muscular chest. A steady and strong heartbeat, Hermione could hear his heartbeat as she return the embrace.

"Is there something going on between you two?" Ron interrupted them.

"What?" Harry look at Ron, "Is there something all of you know that I don't?"

"Does every hug that Lucas give to a girl means he is in a relationship with them?" Ginny asked sarcastically.

"What?" Hermione snapped, "I am not dating Lucas!"

Harry glance at Hermione watching her blushed, he knows how she felt. It doesn't take one to ask, it take one to observe. Harry knew Hermione well enough to know that she has a crush on him, the way she look at him, the way she reacted when she see him, it all tells.

"Ron, should I turn gay for your sake?" he smiled cheekily and grabbed Ron's face giving him a sloppy wet kiss on the cheek.

"No…what…" Ron stuttered and went bright red while Ginny smirked at him.

"Maybe Ron is gay, you never know", Ginny scoffed making Ron snapped again. The two red head started fussing over the littlest thing that could find about each other. They fell silent immediately as soon as they saw Sirius appearing out of nowhere. Sirius smiled at Harry and gave him an assuring smile before turning to face Lucas.

"Lucas", he paused and smiled, "can I have a word with you?" Lucas nodded and went with him.

Arriving at the desolated room, Sirius shut the door behind him close. Lucas paced around the small, dark room stopping as a man emerges from the dark.

"Jose?" Lucas moved closer towards the man. Jose was clean shaven, he certainly did look unusual to Lucas but indeed it shows his wide and handsome smile more. His brown eyes twinkled when Lucas mouth curved into a smile.

"Since when do you care about your appearance?" Lucas teased as he slapped Jose shoulders hard.

"Ever since I got a bratty godson", he laughed and squeezed Lucas's cheeks together, "by the way more ladies are charmed by my clean shaven looks". Jose expected answer made Lucas roll his eyes.

"Jose", Sirius said. Jose nodded and walks to stand beside Sirius. Jose had his hands in the pocket, head bow and a serious look on his face, Lucas knew that this matter was serious and somehow it requires his full attention. He knew his godfather really well, well enough to read his emotions.

"Lucas, you should know that he has return", Jose said with his back facing Lucas. Lucas nodded slightly while Sirius arched his head in a suspicious way.

"So you believe what Harry saw?" Sirius asked, moving closer towards Lucas.

"It is not the matter of believing", Lucas replied calmly and Jose looked over his shoulder and his body tense a little. Lucas knew that Jose knows what he meant.

"You broke your promise?" Jose said softly, Lucas looked up to face Jose.

"I did not promise you anything", Lucas responded and force himself to look straight into Jose angry eyes. He doesn't need Jose consent to do everything and he certainly doesn't need to consult Jose on seeing his father.

"You are too young for Merlin sake!" Jose yelled furiously, his loud voice boomed around the tiny room.

"I am fifteen I can make my own choices", Lucas answered, trying his best to hide his frustration.

"You were fourteen"

"Does that make any difference?"

"A big difference", Jose answered angrily; his face was red with anger.

Lucas swallowed angrily as Jose went out of the room and slammed the door shut. Sirius stood there in the corner silently; he knows well enough not to intrude into other people's business. Lucas clenched his jaw and looked at the door; his eyes were filled with anger and frustration.

"He is after what he doesn't have the last time", Sirius said, watching every step that Lucas made, "we do not know whether it is you or Harry".

"He is after Harry, he wants me…" Lucas muttered and shoved his hand in his pocket, "alive", he continued after a long paused. Sirius widens his eyes, unsure what Lucas meant.

"He knows I am just like him..." Lucas walked towards the door and Sirius fidgeted uncomfortably.

"Lucas", Sirius stopped him in his tracks, before he could open the door, "he cares".

"I know", Lucas replied softly and he swung the door opened just to meet an ear in front of him. He tugged at the ear and snapped the line connected to it into half. He sighed and shoved the ear into his pocket.

It was close to midnight; Lucas has spent his whole day in the room that he shared with Ron and Harry. He threw the ear on the Ron's bed and watched Ron's eyes widen. But Lucas let it slide, not that he discusses anything that important. Harry still got his eyes fixed on him from time to time; Lucas ignored him as he continued to unpacked.

"I thought you were being expelled", Lucas said after he finished unpacking.

"No, not quite", Harry shook his head gently.

"Not quite?" Lucas raised his eyebrows.

"Dumbledore somehow came to his defense", Ron replied for him and Harry nodded. Lucas smiled at him and sat on his bed.

"I suppose the ministries are somehow corrupted", Lucas uttered and Harry widens his eyes in wonder, "I mean, the ministry is in charge of the dementors".

"Lucas is right", Hermione added in, straight after she bolted into the door. Look who has been eavesdropping, the Golden Trio just wants to know everything.

"But that is just completely bonkers!" Ron exclaimed jumping up to his feet.

"Well, is it foolish to think that the darkest wizard is after Harry?" Lucas remarked, forcing Ron to quietly sit back down on his bed. Harry eyes darted around the room before it finally rested on Ron then facing the two on the opposite side. He picked up his wand and held it in his palms.

"Whatever happens, I am ready", he said with a stern look on his face. Hermione smiled weakly, placing her hand on Harry's hand, she looked up at him, "and I will always be by your side". Harry nod at her and Ron patted Harry's back muttering a "me too" softly. Lucas shifted uncomfortably, looks like the golden trio is having their moments, so he stood up and quickly excused himself.

Walking into the dining area, a long and majestic table sat in the middle of the dining room. At the far end of it seems to be Jose sitting alone having a mug in his hand. Lucas walked towards him and calmly pulled out a chair beside him. It was their first fight; most of the time was just senseless bickering that they would just end up laughing and teasing each other.

"I care about you, I might not act like I do but I really do", Jose said without looking at Lucas. He just sat there gazing down at the mug, "I made a promise to your mother and I plan to keep it. I have already lost one person whom I care and love so much and I just can't bear to lose another one".

"I did this…"

"For yourself", Jose cuts in, he looked at Lucas and continued, "anger, revenge that is all you. You are killing yourself".

"I saw it", he muttered, keeping his gaze down unable to face Jose.

"See what?" Jose asked, placing his hand on Lucas shoulder, forcing his to look up.

"Me…I killed my mum didn't I?" Lucas stammered, tears welled up in his eyes while Jose gaped his mouth open wide.

"What?" Jose exclaimed trying his best to put on a shocking face.

"Don't play with me Jose! You knew!" Lucas yelled slamming his hands on the table he stood up immediately, upsetting the chair.

"Lucas, calm down, how did you find out anyway?" Jose said weakly, trying his best to keep his composure.

"Time turner", he answered, "I am going to become someone like him right?" Lucas stared at him, giving him a cold, hard look, forcing him to answer.

"No", Jose stood up immediately, though he did have quite a shifty gaze.

"How am I suppose to convince myself when my godfather knows that I am going to be like my father", he said angrily and stormed off. It was hard to accept the fact that he was going to be like his father. How? How could he even kill his mother cold bloodedly and not even upset about the fact that she is dead? He remembered those cold, green eyes he saw, an eye without any emotions. He walked across the narrow, hallway fast, he needed some air. Grabbing his jacket he turned to see a beautiful brown eye staring at him intensely.

"Where are you going at this hour?" Hermione asked. She wasn't going to leave is she? Damn, she is annoying at time, Lucas thought.

"This doesn't concern you"

"It does very much", Hermione said cocking her head in such a bossy way.

"Fine", Lucas hissed, his eyes darted everywhere making sure he haven't woken anybody up. He grabbed her by the hand and shoved her jacket into her arms. He darted out of the door and with the wave of his wand the building separated, he looked back to make sure Hermione was following. Seeing her standing there uncertainly, he grabbed her and dragged her along. It was raining cats and dogs outside. Staying in a well, hidden house with no windows, they would never be able to see the daylight or any activities that goes on outside.

"Have you got your wand?" he asked, pulling her to the middle of the street.

"Yes…" Hermione got cut off as they apparated to a deserted area, in the middle of nowhere.

"You are not allowed to apparate!"

"I have already got my license mind you", he muttered walking away from her and stopped in his tracks. The ground was muddy and they were soaking wet. Taking a quick looked around he whispered "perfect".

"What?" Hermione mistakenly thinks that he was saying something to her.

"Take out your wand", Lucas commanded.

"What?"

Lucas walk towards her pointing his wand at her, Hermione quickly whipped out her wand as soon as she saw his menacing smile.

"You are threatened by me aren't you?" he said, dropping his wand to the ground. A lightning flashes by lighting the sky up for a split second.

"No", she yelled back as the thunder roared.

"Kill me"

"What?"

"Kill me for Merlin sake!" Lucas yelled at her as Hermione shook her head furiously. Lucas moved towards her swiftly, grabbing her by the shoulders. His eyes showed signs of emptiness; nothing seems to matter to him anymore, "if you don't, I will be killing many other innocence people".

"No you won't!"

"I am becoming like him!" he snarled, squeezing her shoulders tightly, she flinched a little.

"No!" she yelled pushing Lucas back hard and he tripped over and landed hard onto the ground, "you…you are not like him" she stammered. She went to kneel beside Lucas who just lay there motionless.

"What do you know?" he said, covering his eyes with his arms.

"I know that you are caring…" she trailed off, knowing that when she starts, she would never stop.

He sat up; it was hard to tell whether he has been crying because of the rain.

"Listen carefully, because I am not going to mention this twice", he said, almost in a whisper, "Voldemort is my father". He turned towards her, expecting her to gulp and ran as far away as possible like Emma's family did. But instead of running away, she just sat there, beside him and gulped. She was shocked, but somehow not frightened.

"So?" was all she said, raising her brows, she wasn't sure how to react.

"So? I am the darkest wizard son!" he exclaimed, chuckling slightly quite relieved at the way she reacted.

"You have your own heart and he has his, that's what makes you two different", she smiled. Lucas laughed at her, she was right. Grabbing a handful of mud near him he rubbed it on her face.

"Lucas!" she was shocked at his reaction.

"Whose fault is it that I look so grubby?" he puts on a childish grin as Hermione chuckled. He watched her giggled and smiled. Watching her still quite clean, he tackled her onto the puddle of mud making her looks as grubby as him. She laughed and swatted his arm trying her best to push him away as he still lay on top of her pressing her down onto the mud.

"Thank you", he muttered then quickly pulls her up and gave her a tight hug. Under the cold wind and rain, it was indeed a great moment for Hermione. She leaned her head on his broad shoulder and felt the warm emits his body onto hers. Before she knew it, they were back at Grimmauld place, in the middle of the street. Laughing and giggling together as they enter the house, Ron stood there like an angry father waiting for his kids to come home after curfew.

"Where did you guys go?" he muttered angrily as he watched the two mucky teenagers standing by the doorway grinning from ear to ear.
