AN: It's Sunday Update time! I hope you all had a wonderful week, because mine was really hetic (in a good way)! But I was able to write another chapter in the midst of my chaotic week and here it is!

Disclaimer: I don't own Harry Potter, J.K. Rowling does. But I do own Willow. (My OC, by the way. Some of you seemed confused when I introduced her in the last chapter...). Oh and Violet. Almost forgot about her.

The Revelation

Albus stared blankly at him.

"James Potter?"

"Yeah." Harry took another deep breath. "This might be hard to believe but-"

"Harry no!"

Harry turned to give Hermione a reproachful look. She was rigid, her fists were clutched at her sides, and the look she was giving him could've killed. "Harry don't you dare-"

"Don't I dare what?" Harry said, his voice rising. "I have a right to ask-"

"No you don't!"

"I'll tell him if I want to!" Harry yelled. "You can't stop me!"

"I will if I have to!" Hermione said, her cheeks flushing. "Harry we mustn't tell them anything, we could change…"

Her voice trailed off as the girl in the bed moaned. Everybody was still as Rose sat up, yawned, and looked tiredly around. Then her eyes widen.

"Where the-"

"Room of Requirement." Willow interrupted.

Her gaze fixed on Harry, Ron, and Hermione. Her eyes got wider, her face paled.

"Albus…" She whispered.

"I know." He said, his voice shaking. "He was asking about James-"

"So you do know him?" Harry said suddenly, not able to hide the excitement in his voice. "Are you related to him? Is he your cousin or something?"

Albus said nothing. Rose sighed.

"Does anybody know where my wand is?"

"Yes." Willow said. "I have it-"

"Don't change the subject!" Harry said, frustrated. "Look, I'm his-"

"Harry!"

"Hermione knock it off!" Ron said. "Let Harry say what he has to say!"

"Don't you yell at me Ronald!" Hermione snapped at once. "We could do some serious damage if we're not careful!"

"We've already stunned and dragged them here Hermione, there isn't much more damage we can do."

"So the Map was right?"

Everybody turned to look at Scorpious. He was sitting up, looking at the three of them with a weary expression. "It wasn't wrong?"

"Of course it wasn't Scorpious." Rose said. "How thick are you? The Map is never wrong. I just didn't know they were going to be this young…"

She looked out the window and for a while nobody said anything. Then she turned around abruptly.

"How old are you?"

"None of your business." Hermione said quickly, as Ron opened his mouth to speak. "We'll ask the questions here."

"Is James-"

"Not that one!" Hermione barked at Harry. She turned to Rose. "You said something earlier about the 'Prisoner's Charm'. We want to know how to break it."

Her brow furrowed. "So that was you, in the corridor, right next to the stairs? I thought I heard someone…"

"Yes that was us." Hermione said briskly. "So how do we break it?"

"I don't know."

Hermione narrowed her eyes at her. "You seemed to know a lot more back there. What, you were just acting smart to impress him?"

She jerked her head towards Scorpious, who was looking at Rose, a little bemused. Rose blushed, looking furious.

"I wasn't 'acting smart'!" She growled. "And if you were effectively eavesdropping, you would have realized I never claimed to know how to get past it! All I said was you need a lot of talented wizards to even make a dent in it!"

"Hmmm… so you don't know anything useful about it at all?" Hermione said slowly. Harry noticed an odd glint in her eye. "What was that other girl's name? Violet right? Looks like she was right about you…"

Hermione seemed to have touched a nerve. Rose was beyond furious. "Give me my wand Willow!"

Willow took a step back. "Now Rose, remember who she is-"

"I don't care who she is." Rose snapped. "Give me my wand!"

"Don't be so melodramatic Rose." Scorpious yawned. "Can't you see she's trying to get a rise out of you?"

Rose gave him a murderous look. But then she sighed.

"Fine. So I don't know anything, okay? So why don't you leave and find out on your own, so I can get a few hours of sleep. I have an exam, you see…"

She got up to leave, but Harry, Ron, and Hermione all drew there wands.

"Nobody's leaving!" Hermione said, her voice shrill. "Not until we're done with you!"

"What do you want from us?" Albus said. "We don't know anything!"

"Yes you do." Harry said. "You all do. I can see it in your eyes. You know something we don't." He pointed his wand at Willow. "You said we wouldn't believe you if you told us!"

The four of them exchanged looks. Rose shrugged.

"She's right, you won't."

"Try me."

They exchanged looks again.

"What do you think?" Albus asked.

"I think we should have a vote." Willow said quietly. "That way, it's fair."

"Wait, so all we all get to vote?" Rose said. "That's not fair!"

"How is that not fair?" Scorpious asked. "That's democracy Rose!"

"But you two have nothing to do with this. I mean, it's really just Al and I that are affected by the decision. So you two don't get a vote."

Willow smiled and Scorpious rolled his eyes. "Fine." He said.

"Okay," Albus said. "I vote we tell them."

"And I vote we don't."

"So we need a third vote." Albus sighed. "This is why more than two people need to vote."

"Well, my vote counts twice as much as your vote." Rose said.

"What! Why?"

"Because this affects me more than it affects you. You can even say it affects me doubly more than you."

She gave a shifty glance in Harry, Ron, and Hermione's direction. Albus shook his head.

"Now that's not fair! Just because… fine whatever." Albus sighed. "I'm done arguing with you. Have it your way."

"So you're not going to tell us anything?" Harry said. His voice was calm, but he could feel the heat rise in his face. "We're supposed to wander around and try and find are way back?"

"Well, it's your own bloody fault." Rose said. "Honestly, why did you come here in the first place? Didn't your Headmaster tell you to stay put?"

"What if we tell you something?" Hermione said, as Harry opened his mouth to retort. "Something you four don't know?"

"I highly doubt you know something we don't know." Rose said, smirking.

"Did you know James Potter is my father?"

Albus and Rose looked stunned. Then Albus shook his head.

"I see, so that's what you thought when you saw his name on the Map? You thought it was your father?"

"He is." Harry insisted. "I'm from the future. We all are." He said, indicating Hermione and Ron.

"Your Hogwarts must have traveled to the future somehow." Hermione said, her voice tentative. "We didn't know where it came from, but after seeing Harry's mum and dad, we knew. I know it's hard to believe… I didn't even believe it at first, but there's no other explanation… stop smirking!? This is serious!"

Rose covered her mouth. "I know, I know!" She said between her fingers. "I'm sorry! But it's the other way around."

"Other way around?" Hermione frowned. "What do you mean-"

She stopped. Then looked out the window. Then at Rose and Albus. Then, quite suddenly, she grabbed Harry by the arm.

"Where's the Map?"

Harry pulled it out of his pocket, and without another word she shook it out and buried herself in it.

Ron and Harry exchanged confused looks. "Hermione…"

"Lily Potter." she whispered. "Oh Harry, of course! That's why her last name isn't Evans!" She gave Albus an astounded look. "Is she your sister?"

Albus nodded.

"Then James…"

"Brother, yeah."

Hermione looked ready to cry. She turned to Harry. "Oh, Harry!"

She hugged him. Harry, bewildered, looked over her shoulder to see Albus shrugging at a furious-looking Rose.

"I thought we voted on not telling them!" She said.

"You voted on that!" Albus retorted. "And I'm not the one who gave her the hint. 'Other way around', honestly!"

"I didn't think she would get it right off the bat." She mumbled. "It just sort of slipped out…"

Harry was extremely confused. "Hermione, what-"

"Oh Harry, don't you see?" She said, letting go of him, and giving him a watery smile.

"No."

"Harry, Albus is your son."

AN: Yeah I know, another cliffhanger, I'm sorry. But when I only have a week to write each chapter, this is how it usually ends up. I'm thinking of updating every other week instead of every week, so that the chapters are longer and have a less frustrating ending. Let me know what you guys think of this plan by either leaving a review or PMing me. The next chapter will be better, and I REALLY don't want to leave you guys hanging every single chapter. I've read stories like that, and that is super annoying. I'm hoping if I have more time to write, than that'll solve the problem. I don't know, we'll see...

Anyways, as always please leave a review if you liked it (or didn't) and feel free to give me some constructive criticism! I love reading your reviews. And thanks for reading!
