Wow! I haven't written for this for a long time! Sorry bout that! So be happy rejoice it's a new year and a new chapter!
Harry and his wife sat in the hospital room. It was now the middle of September and Teddy was still out cold, and now with nothing to distract him, Harry was getting very edgy. Both of the elder Potters were on the verge to sleep, when the healer in charge of their godson's recovery came into the room.
"Ah, Harry, Ginny, you're here." He stated blankly. "Where are James, Lily, and Al?"
"Hogwarts." Ginny said groggily. They were there so often, with their children causing so much trouble that the hospital staff now new them by name.
"Did you find anything new?" Harry asked anxiously.
"Well," Leathers started. "There have been some developments –" But before he could say anything else, they became captivated by Teddy Lupin. His hair began to change colors rapidly. First it was pure white, then yellow. Next sandy brown, then bubblegum pink. Now gold, and finally purple. The boy laying on the bed, took a deep shaky breath and opened his eyes.
"Teddy!" Ginny screamed, practically pouncing on him. Hugging the hell out of him, Teddy started to speak.
"Ow. Gin—Ginny stop! Gin—" He said his voice muffled until finally he yelled "MUM!" Ginny let him go.
"Teddy Remus Lupin. Don't you ever do anything like that ever again. You ha us scared sense—" Ginny scolded, only to be interrupted by her husband.
"Oh come off Gin. You're not actually going to tell him he can't play quidditch, are you? You played for the Harpies, and I never told you you couldn't now did I?" Harry teased her. She back-handed him the in the chest. While harry rubbed the spot jokingly, she addressed him
"You never had any control over me anyway Potter."
"What's that supposed to mean?" Harry asked her, wide-eyed. Ginny chuckled.
"I love you." She said kissing him.
"Good." Harry told her, kissing her back, and puffing his chest out proudly.
"Ew. Guys. Get a room. Please." Teddy said throwing his arms up to shield his eyes. Harry laughed.
"Come off Teddy. Don't tell me you never-." Harry started to tease.
"LALALALALALA. I can't hear you!" Teddy said in a sing-song voice, covering his ears.
"Baby." Ginny whispered. Finally Doctor-Healer Leathers voiced his opinion.
"Why don't you get your children from school Mr. Potter?" Leathers suggested "I'm sure they would love to see their brother."
"Yeah. I'll go do that." Harry announced, then apperated away.
"So you don't want to over exert Teddy?" Ginny asked the Healer.
"That's right." He said smugly, As though his plan was the most brilliant idea ever.
"You have met my children right, my loud, rambunctious, ADHD children."
The healer groaned. That's right he had just invited the Potter children back to the hospital. The rest of the staff was going to hate him. Oh well Teddy Lupin was their family.
Harry was just outside the Hogwarts gates. The walked quickly to the castle and went to get James first. He walked right into the middle of a Defense Against the dark Arts class. Aha! The fourth years! This was James' class, Harry could see the Potter hair, in one of the seats in the middle of the room.
"The man himself, as I live and breathe Harry Potter!" The teacher bellowed spying Harry in the back of his classroom.
"Oh Hi." Harry said quickly. "Professor…"
"Gillows." The teacher supplied.
"Right." Harry said. "Can I have my son, James, please?"
"Of course." The balding wizard said motioning to the boy. "Tell us Mr. Potter, what is it like fighting the Dark Arts."
"Now's not the best time." Harry said slightly annoyed as James grabbed his stuff. "Can't you ask anyone else?"
"Like whom?" the teacher snorted. James at his side. He stared the teacher directly in the eye.
"Try Neville Longbottom." Harry suggested, and then left with his oldest son in tow.
Next Harry went to get Albus. James said he was in potions, so they both descended the long staircases into the dungeon.
"Harry m'boy!" Slughorn yelled happily, as harry and James walked through the door. "And James! To what do we owe this pleasure?"
"I need Al, professor." Harry and James told him at the same time. Al started to pack his things up.
"Alright then. Could you tell us Harry, what is it like being a brilliant potion-master?" the older wizard asked. Harry had to bite his lip to keep from screaming in frustration. WHY COULDN'T ANYONE LEAVE HIM ALONE? Oh that's right. Because he's Harry-Freakin'-Potter, they don't understand 'because he's a legend man.
"Ask someone else, I'm in a bit of a time crunch right now, sir." Harry explained, Al now beside him.
"Who should I ask?" Slughorn, said interested.
"Hermione." Harry shrugged as he and his sons walked out and apperated to Lilies primary school. Now Harry had to go through proper channels to withdraw his children. He went and signed Lily out, luckily they got no odd looks as James, and Al had changed out of their robes before leaving Hogwarts.
"Dad? Al? James? What are you doing here?" Lily asked, right in the middle of her teachers lecture. All eyes turned to the three Potters. The teacher stood up.
"May I help you?" She asked coldly.
"Yeah Actually. I'm Harry, Harry Potter and I need Lily. As in now." Harry explained.
"Have you signed her out?" the teacher asked.
"Yes." Harry said exasperated as Lily gathered her things.
"Tell us, Mr. Potter, what is it like working in the Law Enforcement?" Harry threw a look at his daughter who shrugged and mouthed, had to say something.
"Can you ask someone else?" Harry almost pleaded.
"Like Whom?" She challenged, as James and AL, greeted their sister.
"Hell if I knew." He responded as he walked out the door children in tow.
"Why did you pull us out dad?" Lily asked once they were outside the school. Harry turned to face them all.
"Kids." He said, the three of them look wide-eyed and scarred. Had their brother died? Harry's face split into a grin. "Teddy's up."
