Trying to bring the ghosts of James and Lily so they could protect Harry from Snape's taunting, Sirius makes a mistake and actually brings them back to life.

Redo of my popular story. The Order of the Phoenix is sent a certain series which depict our heroes exploits. Reads like mysecretthought's 'Under a Watchful Eye' in which the characters respond to the books as they read without the actual book quotes being stated. Helps to have a copy or just be extremely familiar with the stories.
