Death's Life Debt Keeperoliver Chapter 20

A/N: This is a very special Author's Note for me, as somewhere during it, I will have posted my 1,000,000 word. I didn't think I knew that many words. LoL. Yeah me. I would never have thought that I would write that much, but it is because of you great people who follow my stories that I have continued. I don't know if I will continue on to 2,000,000, but I will at least try for it. Now, since it has been written, and my anxiety attack has passed, perhaps I should continue on with the story. But, before I do, I would like to thank all who read and reviewed my last chapter. It has been my most read chapter ever. Over 6,000 hits It beat Angel's record of 5,500. As always, Ollie the Keeper.

03/10/2014- I am now up to 1,822,000 words. And you are still the greatest friends ever. As always, Ollie the Keeper.

When Harry and his ladies returned to the Burrow, he called for Kreacher. When Kreacher responded, Harry was amazed by how much younger Kreacher looked yet again. "Kreacher, you look great. How much younger are you going to get?"

Kreacher smiled at Harry, "I think this is it master Harry sir. But It is more than I can hope for. I have never felt like this before, and I am loving it. Thank you sir."

Harry shook his head at his friend. "Kreacher, please just call me Harry. We are family after all. Now, would you do me a favor?"

"No sir. Kreacher will do as he is told. He is honored to be doing it for such a good master."

"Kreacher, would you please contact Remus, Tonks, Minerva, Filius and Severus, and have them join us for dinner at the burrow this evening. Tell them I have something important for them to see."

"Yes Master Harry sir."

"And Kreacher, I think you should be joining us as well."

Another tear formed in Kreachers eye. He nodded his acceptance, and flashed away.

Five minutes later saw Remus and Tonks approaching the Burrow. Remus was carrying a bundle in his arms, talking to it as he entered the wards. Tonks just smiling at her husband as she walked with him. She always knew her wolf was capable of love, and it grew ten fold when Harry found that elixir that cured him of his problem. What surprised them both was the fact that his senses remained when he was cured.

They entered the Burrow to be greeted by a hugging Molly Weasley She was easy on Remus since he was carrying Teddy, but Tonks was hit with a full Weasley hug. She glared at Remus when she realized why he was carrying Teddy, and he chuckled at her while she was turning purple from the squeeze that was put on her by Molly. She sighed and returned Molly's hug.

Then the rest of the crowd started to show up, to include Kingsley, who had been with Minerva. He apologized for his unexpected visit, but was hushed by Molly saying, "You are always accepted here Kingsley, never forget that. Now find a place to sit, while I greet my other guests."

Severus entered the Burrow, wondering why he was asked to join. He tried to mention this, when he was pulled into a hug by Molly. He was shocked at first, then he relaxed into her hug, liking the way it felt. He was not use to the feeling, being hugged only a few other times in his life, and those from another red head.

The group was then asked to join in the kitchen for dinner, which was early at the request of Harry, so that he could talk to everyone after dinner. Arthur had to extend the table magically, as there were more people at the table than usual. It was a very noisy meal as every one saw the rings the girls were wearing, and asked about them. Remus looked at his pup, as he glowed with pride at the way his ladies were being attended to. Remus knew Harry would make a good mate to all these ladies, and they would never lack for love. He laughed at what Luna had done to Vernon Dursley. The group passed on the conversation with Petunia for the time being, and he wondered about this.

After dinner, and cleanup which Kreacher took care of instantly, they adjourned to the den once more to find seats. Harry allowed the adults to sit on the seats, and he and his ladies took a seat on the floor. Harry began his explanation for the summons. "I wish to thank you all for coming on such short notice. I can assure you it will be well worth you trouble. I know there are some of you who are wondering why I didn't mention our talk with Petunia when we mentioned the visit. The reason for this was because Petunia was put in her place by some one special who just entered my life. She was not kind to her either. Professor Snape, I am sure you are wondering why I asked you here, correct?"

"Yes Mr. Potter, the thought had crossed my mind."

"Well the reason I asked you here is because there is someone I would like you to meet. Remus, the same goes for you. Professor McGonagall, and Flitwick, you were personally requested to be here. Kingsley, you will also be happy to see who it is. And Molly and Arthur, you are the honored hosts and the main reason for this reunion. Fred and George, prepare to be shocked."

Harry stood up, and pulled out the portraits, and used a charm to stick them to the wall. He had them blurred as to hide who they were, however Remus was already tearing up, as he knew who they were of. Tonks saw this, and took him into her arms for comfort.

Harry began once more, "Lily Potter, James Potter, Sirius Black, would you please join us for a little talk?"

The blurred visions cleared, and the three figures in the portraits began to stir. Severus jumped up and went to Lily's portrait crying as he stared into her beautiful eyes. Lily awoke and looked out at the gathered people and smiled, then looked down and saw Severus crying at her vision. Her first words were for him, "Hello Sev. It has been awhile. How have you been?"

"Lost, lonely, hurt, angered, upset, miserable. You name a bad feeling, and that would be how I feel. Lily, I am so sorry for the stupid way I treated you that day by the lake. I can't tell you how many times I kicked myself for those words."

Their talk continued while James and Sirius talked with a smiling Remus, with Tonks at his side and Teddy in his arms. Sirius was howling with laughter at his dear friend and his cousin being together and with child. Harry and his ladies stood back and watched as the others paid visit to his family. They all laughed when Fred and George found out who they were . They dropped to their knees honoring them as if they were gods, which in their eyes they were. Marauders, gods of Mischief and Mayhem. Lily asked Severus if they could continue their talk later, as she saw something she hadn't noticed before, and it posed many questions. "Harry, my son, don't you wish to talk to your mother and father?"

Harry smile up at his mother, "I wanted every one to have a chance to talk to you. We will have all the time in the world to talk later."

Lily smiled, but it was an evil grin, "I believe we will talk now young man. I have a dozen questions that need answered. So, do you still wish to wait?"

"No, we will talk. I think I know what it is you wish to talk about, and we should clear the air now."

"Thank you Harry. It will ease my mind knowing the answer to what I have to ask. Are you engaged to all the woman sitting around you?"

"Yes."

Lily smiled even brighter, "Can you please tell me who they are so that I can meet them properly?"

"Of course mother, Ginny you have already met. By the way, can you please tell us where you learned that language you used on Aunt Petunia. You sounded like an American truck driver."

"You can blame that on your God father. He didn't teach me them, he caused me to use them. He was so infuriating. He was brash, bold, insulting and childish. I think that is why I loved him so much, as I did my dear friend Moony." Tears were forming in Lily's eyes. "I missed you so much Remus. I never got to say thank you for being the best friend I had at school, and I am so happy for you finding some one to love you in spite of your problem."

The twinkle in Remus' eye spoke of joy, "What problem is that My flower."

Lily laughed at his nickname he had for Lily. She always loved it. "You know what I'm talking about MOONY."

He was laughing now, "No, I'm afraid I have no idea what you are talking about. Do you know what she is talking about my love?" He asked to Tonks.

"Haven't the foggiest my love. How about you Harry? Do you have any idea what Your mother is talking about?"

Lily, James and Sirius were shocked that no one knew of Remus' condition. Had he hid it that well?

Harry continued on with the prank, "I seem to remember him having a bit of a vomiting episode during my third year. No wait, I believe that was the twins doing, after they slipped him a puking pastel. Other than that I have no idea what she may be talking about?"

Sirius blew up at this. "He's a freaking Werewolf for cock's sake. How have you managed to hide it from everyone Moony?"

The three watched as every one in the room broke out in laughter, including Severus. Lily looked down at him and loved this Severus she never saw before. He was always so serious. She thanked the ones above she thought this as it would have only been ammunition for the prat Sirius jokes.

Remus then took the time to explain, "Forgive us my flower. We were just pulling you leg. Pads, Prongs, Lily, Harry found a cure for my condition not three months ago. You can no longer call me Moony. Officially that is. To you, I will always be Moony."

Now, all three portraits had tears of joy in their eyes.

The evening progressed with all of them having tales to tell, making it a most wonderful evening. They hated for it to end, but the Professors and Kingsley had to leave as did the twins, as they all had work to do the next day.

The following morning, Harry and his ladies got up and got dressed for the day. When they arrived down stairs for breakfast, Molly handed Harry a letter that arrived earlier by an unknown Owl. Harry took it, and opened it to find a letter from someone he least expected.

Cousin Harry

Surprised to hear from me? I expect you would be, especially by the way this was delivered.

Mum told me of your visit yesterday. She was not happy to say the least. Hostile would be more like it. She told me what your friend did to dad. All I have to say is, It served him right. Too bad it couldn't have been permanent. This young lady must be quite the charmer. And then she tells me you have five ladies. WHAT THE FUCK. How the hell do you do it. I knew I should have been nicer to you when we were growing up.

And what was that mum was going on about concerning Aunt Lily calling her what she did? I thought she died? Can you bring back the dead as well?

I have a lot of questions to ask you Harry, and was wondering if you could visit us today. Our address is on the envelope. I really would like to see you, and tell you how sorry I am. There is also some one here who would like to see you. Says you have met before. Can't see how her being older.

Any way, if you could be here at 10AM I would love to see you and your ladies.

Cousin Dudley

Well it looked like Harry and his ladies had to pay another visit to family. Hopefully this one will turn out better.

They stepped out of the wards around the Burrow to apparate to the location Dudley said was safe. Daphne asked, "Harry, can you apparate with someone being carried Bridal style?"

Harry cocked his eye brow. "Do you really want to take the chance to find out?"

She smiled at Harry, "Only with you would I feel safe doing it."

Harry broke down with his own smile, "Shall we try then?" and he picked her up.

Ginny growled, "Damn, I should have thought of that."

Hearing this Luna said "You may wish to reconsider that thought."

When they landed, the girls laughed as they saw Daphne had lost half her hair in a splinch. Daphne just laughed with them as it was just a little hair.

Ginny just ran her fingers through her hair, glad it wasn't her. She wasn't a vain person, but, she did love her hair.

As they approached Dudley's home, the door opened up and Dudley came out to greet them. He stopped when he saw the lovely women surrounding him, He took Harry's hand and whispered in his ear. "I definitely ran with the wrong group growing up. I should have become friends with the love machine."

Harry laughed at Dudley's remark. "You might have stood a chance if you had, but, I may have stolen her also?"

"Then maybe I shouldn't introduce you to my love. Although she did say you know her, she never said how?"

"Well no time like the present to find out. Shall we?"

Harry took Ginny and Luna's hands and the rest followed suit and they walked into Dudley's home.

When Hermione saw the woman standing at the kitchen door, she broke loose from her loves and ran to the lady.

"Penelope, oh it's so good to see you."

Penelope Clearwater pulled Hermione into a hug, "It's good to see you also Hermione."

Penelope looked over to Harry and started to say hi, when he came to her and pulled her into a hug as well. Penelope broke into a laugh as he swung her around in his arms.

Luna just stood there saying, "OH SHIT, NOT ANOTHER ONE HE SAVED!"

Every one but Dudley broke out into laughter. Hermione explained to Dudley how they knew her, and Dudley turned green at the thought of the woman he loved had been petrified by a giant snake, and would have been killed if Hermione had not been there with her. As it was she was petrified right along with Penelope. Once again he had another reason to thank magic, or Harry and his magic.

Dudley explained how he and Penelope had met at the safe house he had been moved to briefly. They were moved around so as not to be in any one spot too long. He met her again in another safe house, prior to her leaving to join in the battle for Hogwarts. She returned before the families left the safe house, and Dudley asked if he could continue to see her, and she agreed. His mum and dad were furious that he could fall for a freak, and Vernon cast him from the family. Petunia did not feel the same towards her only son, and tried to stay in contact with him. She may not have liked his choice in mates, but, she would never give up on her son.

Dudley then asked Harry about his Aunt Lily. Harry reached into his pocket and pulled out the portraits, and put Sirius back in, and awakened his mum and dad. Dudley almost passed out when the pictures came to life in front of him.

They talked until it was time for the group to head back to the Burrow, but Harry promised he would return. Before he left he asked Penelope if her being older than Dudley bothered her, and she said "Why should it bother me, Harry, It's only a few years, and I do think I love him. And tell Percy I'm Happy he found some one to love,and that he got over his blindness. That was why we broke up. Him taking his work over his family was more than I could bear. Family always comes first with me."

"I will, the next time I see him. Take care Penny. And don't mind Dudders, he can be a pain at times."

"Not with me he isn't, I put him in his place."

Harry hugged Penny, then he hugged Dudley, and the ladies did as well, then left.

Dudley pulled Penny into a hug, and sat on the couch, pulling her with him. "Please don't take this wrong sweet, I love you very much, but Harry has to be the luckiest son of a bitch I know. Those women where the most beautiful I have ever seen. Are all witches as beautiful as you and them. I mean look at Aunt Lily, and then look at my mum. I love mum, don't get me wrong. but shit Aunt Lily was simply gorgeous."

Penny kissed Dudley's nose, "No love they are all not as good looking as Hermione, Ginny, Susan, Daphne, Luna, Lily or I. I do have to say that they are the exceptions though. We are a very beautiful, us witches."

Dudley just wrapped his arms around her tighter, "I believe you are my pet, and just wished I was a wizard so that I could enjoy the sights like I saw today. Six beautiful women sitting in my house is every mans dream come true."

"Well, dream on lover boy. It will probably never happen again."

Dudley kissed her and carried her to the bedroom.
