Well this is the last chapter for at least the next two weeks sorry! Going on a cruise! Any way please review! Thank you!

"Do you mind if I stay here the night then?" Hayden asked Hermione after Ginny left.

"Stay here. You can use Harry's room. I'm sure no one will mind."

"Thank you Hermione. If you may tell Sirius Black and James Potter to come speak to me upon their return I would be very appreciated,"

"Of course," Hermione said as she left the room.


"I wish I would of gotten my hands on him before Tonks did," James said as they made their way to Gryffindors house.

"I would of been right behind you mate," Sirius said, as they talked about Jarvis Jay.

"Godric's sword," Sirius said as they entered the common room.

"Hey Hermione! Ron! Every one else," Sirius said.

"Da Hayden is in Harry's room. He wants to talk to James and you,"

"Bloody hell," Sirius said as James and he went into Griff's room.

"Hayden," Sirius said as he closed the door.

"This is Ona's husband right?" James asked.

"Yes I am," Hayden said as he walked into the common area of the room.

"Hello," Sirius said.

"How is Ginny?" James asked.

"Safe and at Harry's home as is Harry and his children,"

"Thank Godric," James said going to one of the cabinet in the room and pulling out a bottle of firewhisky he had stored in there.

"You wished to speak with us?" Sirius asked.

"Yes. I want to leave Harry here. Ona will kill me for this. But I think he needs to remain among his family. He's afraid to be with you all,"

"Do you know what that sick bastard did to him...," James started but Hayden interrupted him.

"Harry is a brother to me as well as a comrade in arms. Do not ask me to divulge anything he has shared with me for I will not."

"Sorry," James said.

"Firewhisky?" Sirius said offering some to Hayden.

"No thanks," Hayden replied as James took another shot.


Harry stirred first, to find it wasn't all a dream. He had his daughter and son sound asleep on his chest. And Ginny, his Ginny who didn't hate him or fear him for how he looked laying next to him.

"Gin," Harry whispered as she started to stir.

"Harry you alright," she said in between yawns.

"Yeah. Lift Jason will you," he asked as he laid Anne down next to him. Ginny lifting Jason and laying him down next to his sister.

"Come on. Help me get down to the kitchen and I'll make us breakfast," Harry said hesitantly.

"Alright but then let me move the kids into a crib,"

"I got it," Harry said waving his hand and the couch turning into one, the children still fast asleep.

"Your magic never stops to amaze me," Ginny said as she helped pull Harry up off the couch. He wrapped on of his arms around her waist to balance himself. Ginny had come to a conclusion. She had to try and not baby Harry. She needed to treat him as an adult. But she'd be careful to watch and make sure he did not push himself so far.

"Alright to the kitchen then," Ginny said as they slowly started to walk.

"Sorry I am going so slow Ginny,"

"No big deal Harry. Is the leg gonna heal eventually?"

"Yeah, well it should any way,"

"What they do to it," Ginny asked, wondering if he would answer.

"It was the first thing to break. Then throwing the curcio curse on it didn't help. The nerves are damaged so it's just taking longer," Harry said carefully.

"Well here we are. So my dear Harry what are we to eat?" Ginny said even though inside she was screaming.

"How about pancakes. I could use some good pancakes," Harry said as he gave Ginny simple orders of what to collect. She laid it all out for him and then stepped back to sit.

"Aren't you going to help?" Harry asked.

"You saw my grill cheese yesterday. I think it'll be safest if I stand back here,"

"No fun in that. If I'm not aloud to run away from you then you are not aloud to run away from learning how to cook,"

"Your funeral Harry," she said as she cracked an egg on the side of the bowl, part of the shell falling in.


"So who should go to Harry?" Hayden asked scanning a room full of people who would want to go, directing his question to Ron.

"James, Sirius, Hermione, Neville, and the heirs except Scarlet,"

"WHY NOT ME!" Scarlet protested.

"Because your to young," Ron countered.

"I grew up a Malfoy, Ronald Weasely! I get to come," Scarlet announced.

"She has a point," Luna said to Ron who relented.

"Dumbledore as well. Blaise will you help watch over things here," Ron asked.

"Not a problem Weasley," Blaise said with a salute.

"Alright then Hermione get Dumbledore, James and your da. And then I guess we wait till Harry sends Hedwig."


"Now was that so bad?" Harry asked as the finished their breakfast in semi silence. Every now and then Harry asking questions of what had been going on since he had been taken.

"It was delicious actually. I don't even my mum makes eggs like you,"

"Now I take that as a compliment," Harry said as he grabbed his dish and started towards the sink, Ginny doing the same. "Don't offer to help Ginny. You will just annoy him," Ginny told herself.

"I'm sure Jason and Anne are going to be up soon. Why don't we go get them. I can feed them breakfast and meanwhile you can go shower and change. Then we can send Hedwig to get every one."

"They gonna have so many questions," Harry said being thankful that Ginny had not hounded him yet.

"And if gets to be to much you just let me know Harry. I'll have them out of here quicker then you can say Godric Gryffindor,"

"Alright Ginny," Harry said and they walked back towards Jason and Anne, both whom were wide awake and happy to see their da.

"Alright I take care of them. Go get yourself clean," Ginny said.

"Do you mind if I feed them. You can go to Hogwarts. Get every one ready to come. Be back in say an hour and a half,"

"What about when you shower,"

"I'll call Winky,"

"Harry,"

"Please Ginny,"

"Alright Harry but if you need me call me back alright?" Ginny asked.

"Promise," Harry said as he lifted Anne in one arm and pulled Jason into the other and headed back to the kitchen, leaving Ginny behind him. She called for Winky and gave the elf strict orders to watch Harry from afar and not to intervene unless she had to. She then called Hedwig and disappeared.

"Alright my little ones," Harry said as he settled them in their highchairs. "Let's get you some food. It's amazing how much you've both grown," Harry said as he pulled out to cans of baby food from the cabinet and sat in front of them both and started feeding them.

"I'm not the father either of you deserve. And I'm really sorry about that. Hope Ron filled in good enough. He'd make a good da, better then me. That's good isn't it. Any way let's finish up and go get cleaned. This is going to be a hard day but we are together again right?" Harry said as he whipped the mashed carrots off of his face that Jason threw at him, in an attempt it seemed to make him laugh, which it did.


"Ginny!" Ron said excitedly as his sister arrive in the middle of Griff's room.

"Hey Ron," Ginny said hugging her brother again.

"How is Harry and the kids?"

"He'll be okay. He's hurt bad Ron. Not just his body but his soul,"

"We will heal it," Ron said.

"I know. Where is every one?"

"Waiting in the common room. Listen Professor Snape asked to come. I was against it but Hermione and James thinks it is a good idea."

"I don't think it could hurt. If it does we send him packing," Ginny said as she and her brother walked into the common room.

"Ms. Weasley," Professor Dumbledore said , "I am glad to see you safe."

"Thank you sir," Ginny said scanning those who would be coming. James, Sirius, Hermione, Neville, Luna, Trey, Scarlet, Hayden, Professore Dumbledore, McGonagall, and Snape.

"Alright you lot just don't piss Harry off. Any of you do and I don't care who you are I'll curse you into oblivion," Ginny said fiercely, a deep fire in her eyes that Hayden saw. A sign that he knew that Harry would be okay. He had seen that fire once before in Ona's eyes when she had saved him long ago.

"Alright now we wait till Hedwig get's back," Ginny said.


"Alright you two how does your da look?" Harry asked facing his kids who were sitting on his bed. He had showered, put on a pair of clean jeans and a red shirt, he also made sure his charms were in place.

At Harry's question both of the twins giggled.

"I'll take that as a compliment," Harry said as he called Winky who first hugged Harry and then was given Jason and Anne to look after as Harry went down to the muggle room in which he would be re-united with his friends and family in a mer fifteen minutes.


"Alright Hedwig is here," Ginny said as the bird landed on her shoulder. She took Ron's hand who took Hermione's and so on until everyone was connected and in a burst of flames was gone to arrive in Griffin Manor a few minutes later.

"Hey every one! Over here," Harry said timidly as the group turned around to find Harry sitting in a large leather chair. Ginny and Hayden both knowing because of his leg.

"HARRY!" Hermione yelled not able to contain herself and ran right across the room and grabbed her cousin in a hug, at first Harry tensed but forced himself to relax.

"Harry are you alright. I was so worried,"

"I'm alright Hermione. Really it's okay," Harry said to his cousin as she stepped back.

"Hey mate," Ron said being the next one to walk over to him and took him in a manly hug.

"Hey mate," Harry responded. "Keep everything running like I said."

"Did my best," Ron said.

"Son!" James said approaching Harry next and hugging him.

"Your safe now,"

"I know da," Harry said pulling away and looking at every one, Sirius who had moved closer had ruffled his hair.

"Mr. Potter I am glad to see you safe," Mivera McGonagall said, a tear coming down her face.

"Alright every one before this turns into some emotional feast let us move on to happier topic. Harry's back now so let us just put this behind us shall we. Now come I had Dobby prepare a welcome home meal so let's go eat," Ginny said giving everyone the look that said, 'do as I say or else.' Harry sent her a grateful look as she started pushing every one out of the room, except Hayden who stayed behind, even as Ginny left.

"Need a hand?" Hayden asked as he pulled Harry up off the chair.

"This is going to be harder then I thought,"

"They love you Harry. All of them. Don't push them away. You need people like this you know."

"Hayden,"

"Harry there is stuff about my past you don't know. You think you can push every one away. You think this will keep them safe, and yourself safe. But all it does is hurt all of you. Now we are going to go into the dinning hall and eat a feast meant for a king. You are going to smile, be happy and merry or else."

"What are you going to do if I say no?"

"Well then I will have to tell Ona then it's your own funeral mate," Hayden said as he started walking out of the room. After a moment of hesitation Harry followed.


Every one sat around Harry's large dinner table and waited until Harry came limping in to the table and sat at the head till they started eating. Ginny was to his right and Hayden to his left.

"So how has the D.A been?" Harry asked to Ron, trying to make conversation.

"Alright mate. Having trouble teaching the third years some spells but other wise running peacefully," Ron replied.

"That's good. How about classes?" Harry asked towards Hermione.

"Just some new spells. Don't worry I took very good notes for you. I even have a copy of them in my bag if you want them tonight. Actually I did it for all your classes Harry so you'd be able to get caught up when ever your ready to come back,"

"Um thanks Hermione. That was a brilliant idea," Harry said.

"Yeah mate. This one would lock herself up in the library for hours. Bloody insane she is,"

"I am not insane Ronald! Do you think perhaps I was doing valuable research,"

"On what Hermione? You are already the smartest witch in our year,"

"That doesn't matter Ronald! Really maybe it would pay if you'd open a book once and a while and read. Perhaps you'd be passing then?!"

"I am passing all of my classes thank you!" Ron yelled back.

Harry watched their exchanged, fascinated by it. Part of him was grateful for it, grateful for the familiarity of it.

"Alright Harry?" Ginny asked as he had dazed out.

"Oh yes fine. Have they been doing that a lot lately?"

"No actually. Must of been building up," Ginny replied.

"You know what Ronald Weasley you are an insufferable prat!"

"And you are...are um an insufferable know it all!" Ron raged back.

"Aright you both cool it!" James said watching as Sirius was getting annoyed at Ron for being a prat to his daughter.

"Let's just finish our chicken!" Professor Dumbledore said lightly as Ron uttered something under his breath that Sirius may or may not of heard but decided what ever it was wasn't a goo thing and launched himself across the table at Ron.

"DAD! SIRIUS! MR. BLACK!" came shouts all across the table.

"DAD STOP THIS!" Hermione yelled going to pull her father off of Ron.

Ginny watched Harry mean while, they had taken it to far. He was getting angry, she could tell as the vein popped out of the side of his head.

"Harry," she said tensely.

"I going outside," Harry said moving from the table and walking away, breathing hard. Ginny got up to go after him but stopped when Hayden grabbed her arm.

"Give him a few moments Ginny,"

"But,"

"Just a few moments. I'll take care of this crew," Hayden said. Ginny nodded as she walked towards were Harry had excited.

Hayden let out a long, high whistle, that stopped the fight, everyone facing him. Except Hayden relized, one of the guest, had slipped out as well.

"Alright you lot listen up. You all may want to bicker and kill each other another day and not in front of Harry. His emotions aren't stable. He puts up a good front but it's a front. You need to relax. Don't walk on egg shells other wise this will happen again. Right now Harry needs love. Other wise he is going to run away from all that he loves. So do yourselves a favor and settle this," Hayden said re taking his seat and serving himself some corn.


"Mr. Potter!" Severus Snape said as he walked up to his former student and cell mate who was outside by the gardens.

"Professor," Harry replied.

"It's nice out," Snape said to Harry.

"Very. Not like Pyrexia though. Everything there always smells sweet. And even when it rains it still feels like the sun is out,"

"Sounds like a wonderful haven from this,"

"It is. I wish I could stay there. Live among them till I passed on,"

"But,"

"But you and I both know it isn't possible. I'm sorry your cover got blown because you tried to save me,"

"Think nothing of it. You freed me. I am no longer that monsters slave. It's the first time in many years I've been able to breath freely. It is I who should be thanking you for saving my life. If you hadn't I would be dead. I know in the past I've been a bastard to you. And I came tonight hoping to have the chance to finally apologize,"

"Thank you," Harry replied as he started breathing heavy.

"Mr. Potter,"

"Harry,"

"Harry then. Are you alright. It looks like you are breaking into a sweat,"

"Don't let any one near me," Harry replied as he sank to his knees, his hand going to his head.

"Harry! It's the dark lord! Fight him. You've come to far," Snape said as Harry sank even further to the ground, choking back a sob.

"Harry! Professor!" Ginny said coming upon the pair when she noticed Snape yelling at Harry.

"HARRY! STAY WITH ME! DO YOU HEAR ME! FIGHT HIM! FIGHT THE BASTARD!"


"Hello Harry Potter"

"Tom Riddle. Good to see you chap. Can't stay long I'm afraid. Places to go. People to save," Harry said trying to make this a game, something that Hayden had taught him.

"DO NOT CALL ME BY THAT NAME!"

"Sorry. Was always taught to call people by their given name. Do you prefer Voldy Worts then?" Harry asked calmly.

"You think you can anger me with simple name calling Harry. My for all this power you see to have you are missing the brains to wield it,"

"What do you want Tom. Because if you don't mind I would like to get back to lunch,"

"Well I've come to give you a warning actually. Turn over Severus Snape to me. He is a traitor that I wish to deal with,"

"Never!"

"I will come after him and kill him and any who stand in my way,"

"Severus Snape is under the protection of the true heirs of Hogwarts. If you or any of your cronies come after him I will kill them,"

"I WANT SNAPE BOY! DO NOT TRY MY PATIENCE!"

"Do you think yelling will scare me Tom? Do you really? You best be careful Tom Riddle. Come after him and you will regret it!"

"What is it to you boy! He is your enemy as he is mine!"

"No! You see I have only one enemy. One monster to fight and that is you! NOW GET OUT OF MY HEAD!" Harry screamed as he fought back to reality.


"Help me up," Harry said as she helped pull him up. Snape supporting one side, Ginny the other.

"Who taught potions while you were gone Professor?"

"The Longbottoms and Percy Weasley. Why Harry?"

"Send an owl. They will be needed again. Until further notice Professor you will be staying at Griffin Manor,"

"What! Why?" Snape said confused.

"Voldemort is after you. He wants you dead. If you stay at Hogwarts you'd be putting yourself and the school at risk. And I am sorry Professor but the school is not ready to be defended. Griffin Manor is one of the safest places in England. I'm sorry Professor. I want you to go with my father, Sirius and a man named Hayden. Go to Hogwarts and collect your things. I will have a room prepared for you when you arrive,"

"I can find someplace else to stay," Snape said, not believing after all of this he was at the mercy of Harry Potter, his childhood enemies son.

"You will stay here. You are an important person in this war Professor. You can no longer serve as a spy but your potion skills will be needed. I believe I even have a lab here that you can use,"

"Professor do as he says," Ginny said as Snape finally nodded.

"But let's get you back first," Snape said supporting one side of Harry and the three trekked back into the dinning hall. Where upon their arrival they were questioned.


"Harry what's wrong?" James asked worried as he saw Snape and Ginny bring him in.

"Harry should I call Ona?" Hayden asked.

"Relax both of you! Hayden I am fine do not call Ona. I swear if you worry her I will hex you. Da I am fine as well. Just a bit tired. Actually Da, Sirius, Hayden I need a favor,"

"Yes Harry?"

"I need you to escort Professor Snape back to Hogwarts. Help him collect his things and bring him back here. Am I clear?" Harry asked.

"Why?"

"Voldemort is out for his blood. It will be his main focus for a while. I can't have Hogwarts attacked yet. I am in no condition to go head to head with Voldemort. Professor Dumbledore some one will need to fill in for Professor Snape again,"

"I can put that into motion," Dumbledore said looking at both former students with a twinkle in his eye.

"Da, Sirius, Hayden please bring Snape back in one piece. Hayden make sure they behave," Harry said as he called Hedwig and in a flash they were gone.

"I think we will wait for dessert," Harry said re taking his seat.

Please review! I know you are all saying what the Bloody hell! Well it will be explained soon enough! Thank you all!
