Chapter 6
Due to some last-minute changes, the article didn't come out till the morning during breakfast. Luna made sure that everyone in the school had a copy.
Harry potter: the truth in her own words
I was lucky enough to have sat down late last night with the boy who lived, which is now the girl who lived where she told me everything. The following is the interview.
Ll is Luna Lovegood HP is Harry potter.
Ll: thank you for having me, Harry
HP: thank
you for coming, Luna
Ll: you said you want to tell people the truth about you and the past.
HP: yes, but first, I want to clarify one thing. (at this time, Harry took her wand and held it up) I swear on my life and magic that everything I say during this interview is the truth as I know it. So let it be mot. (if that wasn't clear, Ms. Harry potter just did a magic oath, to tell the truth as she knew it)
Ll: Impressive
HP: Thanks. I wanted that out of the way so no one could say I am lying. I have had enough of that this year.
Ll: let's start at the beginning. We can come back this year later. You and your parents were hiding under Fidelius.
HP: yes, I am not sure who cast the spell, but my parents hope it could keep us safe.
Ll: since you are here without your parents, I would say it partly work.
HP: It would have if Peter Pettigrew didn't betray my parents. He was their secret keeper.
Ll: Like the rest of the wizarding world, I thought Sirius Black was the secret keeper.
HP: that is incorrect. Sirius was their decoy and my godfather by magical oath.
Ll: So if he did the godparents oath and betrayed your family, ,,,
HP: he would be dead, and since he is alive and kicking, he didn't break faith with my family.
Ll: after your parents passed, shouldn't he have raised you
HP: that is correct. As my godfather, he would be the one to parent me in case something happened to my parents
Li: but you weren't?
HP: that is correct. I was placed with my mother's muggle sister and her family.
I noticed a look of hatred on harry face when she said this
Ll: was there something wrong with your aunt and her family?
HP: just they hated anything to do with magic. They would beat me for the first three years of living with them to stop the magic.
Ll: I want to make sure I hear you right; they beat you?
Harry removed her shirt to reveal hundreds of old scars and wounds. I had to turn away from her. Mrs. Potter allowed me to take a photo for the article.
HP: after the age of 4, I only got verbal abuse. I was called a freak, a waste of space, etc.
Ll: what happened at the age of 4? I can't see physical abuse just stopping after three years without reason.
Harry took a deep breath, and Charlie, more on him later, put an arm around her.
HP: that day, Vernon, my uncle, had come home in a bad mood, no idea why, and started drinking. This was my first actual red flag that something wasn't right. I'll explain in a bit. He called me to the living room. My aunt took my cousin to the movies; she always took Dudley away when my uncle drank. Anyway, I thought he wanted me to cook something or get another drink, something like that. Nope, he just stared at me. The next thing I know, I am thrown around the room like a rag doll. I can still feel his punches and kicks from time to time. Once he was done, he threw me into the cupboard under the stairs, my bedroom.
Harry took a moment to collect herself. Even I could see she struggled to talk as the memories returned.
HP: I knew I had at least a black eye and a creak rib, but then I struggled to breathe. It was getting hard and hard. I started to think I was going to die. Am I going to go to heaven where my mom and dad are? Then a bright light came to my room. A figure with long hair and pure white wings appeared. she spoke softly, and I asked if she was here to take me away. She said it wasn't my time. She waved her hand over me, healing me, and told me she would make sure the Dursleys couldn't physically harm me again, but she couldn't stop the verbal abuse. After that, every time I thought I was going to be hit, nothing came, just a verbal lashing. This went on until I got my Hogwarts letter.
Ll: you talk about a red flag with your uncle drinking. What did you mean?
HP: before getting my Hogwarts letter, my aunt would say my mother was a whore who did drugs, and my father was a layabout drunk. Both could care less about me. She told me they had died in a drunken car wreck where I got my scar, which I am famous for. I have talked to other people who lost loved ones to drugs and alcohol. They would not let other people around them use drugs and drink. If my parents died from drugs and alcohol, why would my aunt allow her husband to drink excessively?
Ll: who put you with such horrible people
HP: I am not entirely sure, but I have been told by a trusted source it was Albus Percival Wulfric Brian Dumbledore.
Ll: I didn't think he had the authority to handle a case like yours. I know his power of control is vast, but there was no case worker, follows up meetings, or things like that.
HP: not that I can remember. Once I started Primary school, I remember several teachers committing to my action and reaction due to child abuse. Still, my aunt and uncle claimed that I was accident-prone and a criminal child. They had everyone believe if I was left alone, I could cause problems.
Ll: these are good questions. Let's move on to just before Hogwarts. Who took you shopping for your school things the first year?
HP: Rubeus Hagrid. He couldn't answer all my questions but just being with someone who didn't look at me like a bug on their shoe made it worth it.
Ll: you didn't receive the wizardry pamphlet for new witches and wizards?
HP: I didn't even know there was a thing until I met Hermione.
Ll: that is Hermione granger, 4th year Gryffindor, is that right?
HP: yes, however, we, Hermione and I, recently found something interesting
Ll: and what was that?
HP: The Yule ball had just been announced, and I was practicing dancing with Neville Longbottom, one of the few people I still trust at this time. Hermione was talking to the other girls in our house and discovered that Neville is my Godbrother. This was because his mother was my godmother, and my mother was his. This made us wonder if I had other family members, so we did a heritage potion which showed your parents, grandparent, godparents, and god siblings. I have two God siblings, Neville Longbottom and Rebecca Black, daughter of my godfather Sirius black. Now it also showed you their death year if they had died, by Rebecca name was missing 1979.
Ll; what does that have to do with Hermione?
Harry motioned for Hermione to join our interview
HG is Hermione granger
HG: I decided to do a heritage potion for kicks and found out that the Grangers adopted me, and my real name is Rebecca black.
HP: we had a trusted mentor check her for glamor and found one.
At this point, Ms. Granger removed the glamor to show her true self. Please see the photo.
Ll: so someone kidnapped Ms. Black and put her up for adoption,
HP: that is correct. Who is still being investigated. We can't say more than that.
Ll: Understood. Anyway, you were saying Hagrid took you shopping
HP: yes, a good man. He gave me the first taste of freedom.
Ll: what happened next
HP: he told me what happened to my parents and who killed them.
Ll: anything else
HP: he put me on the Hogwarts express, and I met Hermione and Ron Weasley, my first real friends, or so I thought. I'll explain later.
HG: although we weren't friends at first, we will explain later
Ll: what was your first thought of Hogwarts
HP: breathtaking. I was beyond impressed. I am still surprised each year I return. It's like returning home.
Ll: let's talk about your first year. What happened the first couple of days
HP: well, I had my first glimpse of the next seven years, starting with potions. I actually read the whole first-year textbook, so I was prepared. It seemed just like cooking, the only chore I had that I genuinely enjoyed. I was looking forward to it.
Ll: what happened?
HP: professor Snape walked in and did his opening speech about what he could teach us, which I was writing down, and taking notes. He accused me of not paying attention and gave me a short quiz. He asked me questions not found in the first-year textbook. I learned later they were in the year 4-5 textbooks. How was I supposed to know that? He took points when I pointed out Hermione knew, and it would be a shame not to ask her. Looking back, I guess I was a little cheeky, but still. He has turned me off potions. I try to self-study when I can. All the man does is throw instructions on the board and tell us to get to work. He doesn't explain why two ingredients can or can not work together. You must find out your self which can result in dangerous consequences.
Ll: what happens if you ask a question
HP: he calls you stupid or dunderhead. However, suppose a Slytherin asked the same question. In that case, he explains and helps him. one time, poor Neville forgot to turn off the heat before adding the following ingredients and caused himself to get injured. He called him pathetic and yelled at me for not stopping him. Keep in mind that I was working on my potion, and he told us not to talk.
Ll: let's skip to Halloween. This is where you two became friends, yes.
HP: that is correct. Another student had bullied Hermione, and she ended up in the girl's lavatory. She didn't know there was a troll in the school, which leads to a question. A teacher comes running screaming about a troll and then collapses. I didn't see anyone check him, but the poor guy could have been trampled by the thousands of students trying to get to safety. Which another thing. He said a troll was in the dungeon, where are the Slytherin dorms, in the dungeon. Why would headmaster Dumbledore, at the time, order us to return to our dorm when they would walk right into the troll? Something fishy if you ask me.
Ll: that doesn't explain how you two became friends
HG: as Harry said, I didn't know about the troll, and when I came out of the lavatory, I saw the troll standing right over me. I would like to say to professor McGonagall that I am sorry, but I did lie about where I was. I told her I went looking for the troll, but it wasn't the truth. Harry and Ron came looking for me, and Harry jumped onto his back, distracting it. At the same time, Ron used the levitating charm to hit the troll with his fat stick, knocking it out. After that we became friends.
Ll: wow, that was just the first part of your first year. Was the rest quiet?
HP: nope, I become the first first-year to make the house quidditch team in over a century. We were in our flying close where poor Neville got hurt and was taken to the hospital wing by the teacher. Draco Malfoy had picked up Neville's remember ball and started to make fun of Neville. I wasn't about to stand for that, so I told him to give it to me, and he responded by saying he would leave it on the roof for Neville to find and took off. Looking back, it was a bonehead idea to chase after him when I never flow on the broom before that. But he threw the ball, and I took off to catch it. I caught it before it went through McGonagall's office. A bit later, she came and got me, I thought for sure I was going home, but she introduced me to Oliver Wood and told him I was the new Gryffindor seeker.
Ll: anything else, I don't know how much more my reader can handle, and this was just 1st year.
HP: at the end of the year, we learned of an item hidden in the school and felt someone was going to steal it. I won't say what it was for security issues. We brought our fears to a teacher, and sadly we were turned away. So we went after it ourselves. Face a three-headed dog, flying attacking keys, a potion riddle, and a giant chess game in which Ron had to sacrifice himself so I could check the king. He was lucky he wasn't seriously hurt.
Ll: did you stop whoever was after whatever it was?
HG: I got Ron to Madam Pomfrey, and Harry went on ahead.
Hp: the person I thought was after the item turned out to be wrong. The dark wizard tries to get me to join him, even offering to bring back my parents, which I wish was true. But as I was once told, no spell can awaken the dead except a higher power, God, or whoever you want to pray to. I declined, and we fought turns out my mother had left me a gift, protection that anyone with evil intentions toward me couldn't touch me. Now that I think about it, I wonder if that was really my mother's magic or the angel's. I guess ill never know. The man started to burn and turn to dusk. Somehow, I was knocked unconscious and woke up in the hospital two days later.
Ll: wow. And that was the first year.
HP: that is correct. If free to talk to the teacher for more details.
Ll: what happens in the Second year
HP: Well, before school even started, I was visited by a house elf who told me that something terrible was going to happen that year but couldn't tell me what. I found later who the house elf was and who he served. Dobby and the Malfoy family. Dobby now helped my family and me, which is much better. That little guy is impressively powerful and loyal if you are good to him. I think they all house-elves are. You treat them right, and you might be surprised what they might do.
Ll: did you tell someone?
HP yeah, but no one believed me, and since I didn't know who the house elf was at the time, I couldn't just summon him and have him tell the adult what I was told. However, that didn't stop my uncle from trying to stop me from returning to school. He put bars on my window that the Weasley family had to go and recuse me. I discovered that Dobby was blocking my letter to make me think my friends had forgotten about me. So I forgot about the threat. That is until I got to school and miss Norris was found by us, petrified that is when I first heard a voice which we later found out it was a snake and since I can speak parseltongue I could listen to it talk. Four more students ended up petrified before the school reacted with the threat of shutting down. Even Hermione was petrified. I can't tell you what a shock that was to see my best friend frozen. At the time, I thought she was dead.
Harry took a minute to collect herself. Hermione gave her a hug which was returned.
HP: I think that was when I realized how special Hermione's friendship was to me. Anyway, Ron and I tried to tell the defense teacher what we knew after we learned that Ron's sister, Ginny, had been taken into the chamber of secrets. Still, he turned out to be a fraud. Anyway, we knew where the entrance was and went after her. Yes, we should have gotten a teacher, but there was no time. I don't want to remember much, but I fought the basilisk with the sword of Gryffindor, killing it and saving Ginny. After that, I learned who Dobby was and who he belonged to.
Ll: please tell me that your third year was quieter
HP: I wish we could, but I can't. That was the year I learned about Sirius black. Now at the time, I thought the same as everyone else. He betrayed my parents, but we met him in the shrieking shack and found out Pettigrew was alive. We tried to bring them back, but a werewolf attacked us, and he got away. I will capture him to clear my godfather's name if I get another chance. I want to see the natural person who betrayed my family get punished.
Ll: that brings us to this year, right?
Hp: yes, now most of this year is alright known. So ill just gloss over things. I was really hoping for a quiet year for once. But I am not that lucky. I told everyone who knew me I did not want to be in the tournament, yet on Halloween night, my name came out of the goblet of fire. Even though I told the teacher, I didn't enter or ask one of the older students to do it for me. I was told I had to compete. Then I was called a cheat and a liar. What some people don't know, there were times I was spelled in the halls. Mile jinks and things. I almost fell the stair because someone had used a tripping jinx on me. I don't know who did what, but still.
At this time, Hermione and Charlie looked at Harry in shock so was I.
Ll: did the teachers do anything?
HP: once again, they didn't believe me, not even when I had sprained my ankle in the courtyard or when it happened right in front of them. I felt alone again, like before I got my Hogwarts letter.
Harry had started to cry a bit and had to stop. After a bit, we started again.
HP: sorry, I still have problems from time to time. In my first year, I was told your house was like your family, and my family turned their back on me without asking or talking to me about it. I looked for a safe place to sleep because I didn't feel safe in the dorms. Thank God for Dobby. He found me a safe place. The place we are now in, I found Godric the following day.
Ll: and who is Godric?
HP: Godric is my son. Don't ask me how but I knew he was my son, and I promised to protect him with my life.
Please see the photo of Godric. He looks like a mini-Harry. He is so cute.
Ll: what happened during the first task?
HP: While waiting for my turn, my thoughts turned dark; why was I there? Who do I think I am to go up against three much older students, more advanced students? I wanted to give up. So, I made a choice. I went out to greet the horntail. I was initially going to summon my firebolt and out fly the dragon; I don't even know if that could work. I started to think over my life, and I was done. I was going to step out and let the dragon kill me. Even with Godric, I thought my life was worthless.
Ll: what happened? What stopped you?
By now, even I had tears in my eyes.
Hp: the angel, she came back. She told me she could free me from my bonds; all I had to do was trust her, and I took her hand. A colossal power flew through me, and I felt like my body was on fire. I could literally feel each bind I had on my body, which I didn't know I had, breaking until I was truly free in the body you now see. Free and pissed. The angel had informed me that the adults I trusted had lied and showed me how. I can't go into detail because I need to check on a few things. Anyway, I use my newly free magic to bind the dragon and talk in parseltongue to it. I showed I meant no harm and only was after the fake egg; once I was out of the arena, I freed the dragon.
Ll: and where did you come in, Charlie?
For the record, this was Charlie Weasley, now Potter, the second eldest child of Arthur and Molly Weasley. Now soul bond to Harry, which will be covered later.
Charlie Potter is CP
CP: my supervisor wants to know what Harry did, and since I knew her a bit through my siblings, I offered to talk to her. Even then, I sense this pull to her. Keep in mind she was cold even to me, and I didn't do anything.
HP: I have trouble trusting people. Right now, I only trust Charlie, Hermione, Viktor, my Godfather Sirius black, and McGonagall. There are some I am starting to trust again, but I am not there yet.
CP: Harry told me to have my boss hire more people with parseltongue ability to better handle and understand the dragons, which we did. I have to say I wish we had done it sooner. We have learned so much. I told her if she ever needed anything just to write me.
Ll: what happens after you return to the Gryffindor commons room?
HP: of course, there was a party for me, but as I said, I didn't trust anyone, and who were they to act like they didn't stab me in the back for weeks prior? Let's say my temper got the better of me. After that, Hermione and I went to the library. I told her everything I was told by the angel, my past, and gave her a necklace that helps her block people from reading her mind. I also gave her a book I got on occlumency also to help. I wanted to tell her things, but I knew people might read her mind and learn my secrets. At that time, I didn't want people to know about Godric. I was scared they would try to take him from me. I am still scared they will try.
CP: I won't let that happen, babe
HP: I know, I know. A couple of weeks later, I was informed of the Yule ball and needed a date. So I wrote to Charlie to ask if he wanted to be my date. He said yes and even sent me a necklace that I found was a protection charm necklace.
Please see the photo of the necklaces.
HP: of course, Dumbledore tries to take it from me, claiming it was dangerous. Thanks to my owl Hedwig, I got it back and haven't taken it off since.
Harry leaned into Charlie at this point.
HP: after that, we started writing back and forth. Each letter felt more and more like dating before we noticed we had fallen for each other.
Ll: what happened at the Yule ball?
CP: Harry looked absolutely stunning coming down the stairs. I thought I was looking at a goddess that I was unworthy to be with.
See the photo from the ball. Harry blushed at Charlie's commit
HP: you didn't look too bad yourself, hon
HG: what Harry didn't know was I was asked to the ball by Viktor, and in the weeks prior, I was getting to know him better.
HP: so we surprise each other. We didn't say who are dates were. At first, all four of us had a lot of fun, dancing and just being together. After a bit, we decided to take a break from dancing. The men went to get us some drinks, and Ron came over. He still didn't apologize for calling me name when my name came out of the goblet, so I didn't want to deal with him.
HG: he started calling us gold diggers and whores, which is incorrect. Hermione's adoptive family is very well off. I believe her father is Sirius Black, heir to the black fortune, the current head. I am the heir to the potter fortune, and it is so large that Godric's great-grandchildren might not have to work if they don't want to. To the whore commit. Both Hermione and I are virgins. I can't speak for Hermione, but I'm not sure when ill have sex, I got too much on my plate with Godric to worry about that.
Ll: Is that a problem for you, Charlie?
CP: nope, even though I am not a virgin. I will wait till we are paper married if she wants. No rush. I don't want to scare her off. She is too precious to me.
Harry kissed Charlie in thanks; see photo
Ll: you said paper married. What do you mean?
HP: my temper got the better of me again, and I went off on Ron and slapped him. I ran out of the castle to a spot near the lake that Professor McGonagall told me about after the first task, not wanting me to hold things in. There are these magic boulders that repair themselves once destroyed. The professor says they were part of the original classrooms when the founders first built the school when the students were taught wandless magic. They were learning how to harness the power behind their spell. I allow my anger to be taken out on the boulder. After I got all my rage out, Charlie came over and let me cry on his shoulder.
CP: I told her to ignore my brother; it was the first time I told her I loved her.
HP: which I returned. We didn't notice once we kissed. We became soul bonded.
Ll: Soul bonded? What is that?
HP: it's where you find the other half of your soul. You could travel worldwide and not find another person who will love you like your soulmate. It also married you by magic.
CP: once Harry is out of school, I'll make sure we have a real wedding so I can tell the universe that I love her and claim her as my wife, as I already do.
HP: and I claim him as my husband. But then I thought of Godric. I knew I couldn't keep him a secret from Charlie, so I introduced him and Viktor because Hermione trusted him.
CP: I told her ill claim him as my son if she will let me
HP, that made me cry a bit.
HG: that is when Viktor thanked me for Trusting him and kissed me
Viktor Krum came up behind Hermione and kissed her head
Viktor Krum is VK
VK: and we became soul bonded as well.
Ll: so two happily married couples, what would your parents say?
HG: I am waiting to explain things to my adopted parents this summer and My Father, Sirius Black; I am almost scared to think of his thoughts
HP: that makes two of us. Don't forget he is also my godfather
Ll: so what happens next
HP: we spend the next few weekends hangout, studying school and the egg. It wasn't until a friend gave us a hint about using water that we went to a large bath, submerged the egg, and got the clue.
Come seek us where our voices sound, we cannot sing above the ground, An hour long you'll have to look, To recover what we took.
HP: we knew that it meant a hostage but who? Hermione for Viktor and I thought they would take Charlie, but I was wrong. A portrait was overhead by Dumbledore and found out about Godric. He came and kidnapped my son and Put him in freezing cold water in the middle of Winter. He is lucky that my son didn't catch a cold or worst.
I could tell Harry was still extremely upset about this
HP: I told Charlie to get Madam Bone to the castle as fast as she could because if Godric was harmed in any way, I was going to kill Dumbledore, and that was a promise, not a threat.
Ll: so for the record. You were not asked if your four-year-old son could participate in the second task.
HP: Hell no, Luna, I would never put my son in harm's way.
VK: my Hermione wasn't asked either, nor was the Delacour family regarding little Gabriella. Dumbledore caused an international event. You see, I did inform my father of my soul-bonding to Hermione, which he was happy with. He gave her dual citizenship here and in Bulgaria, making it an international issue.
Hp: once we got everyone back, Dumbledore tried to retake my son, to which I told him no. I was afraid he would place him with an abusive family. I won't let that happen.
CP: that is when I announced that I had applied and was granted the right to adopt Godric as my own, and as soon as the approval gets here, ill blood adopt him as well. To truly make him my son in blood.
HP: that didn't stop Dumbledore. He tried to take Godric a third time only to stop by the souls of my parents and the founder of Hogwarts spirits. They revoke him as the school's headmaster and label him a dark wizard. I know he was kicked out of the school, but I am not sure if he was arrested and charged yet.
Ll: what about what happened in the great hall after?
HP: Ron again. he told her mother possible lies, which she didn't fact-check with her other children before writing me a howler. Luckily the other Weasley children stopped the howler before it went off. I really didn't want Godric exposed to that.
Ll: Okay, the last question, what now? What are your plans for the future
HP: to Survive this horrific tournament and try to figure out the rest of our lives.
CP: as Harry said, she is well off, and truth be told, I am as well. Many people don't realize how profitable dragon handling is. Yes, it is dangerous and not for the fate of the heart, but it is worth it. I hope to take her and our son away and live quietly together.
HP: I would love that, Charlie
HG: I just want to learn more about my adoption and who took me from my father. I also would like to meet my new in-laws.
VK: This is why I plan to bring all of them to Bulgaria sometime this summer. My father and mother want to meet Hermione and Harry.
That ended the interview with Harry potter, the girl who lived and loved.
We have at the Quibbler wish the two happy couples a happy future and will follow up with them later. stay tuned
"very good, well written. How long before we get bombarded with a letter from Sirius and others," Harry said, laughing. Hermione had decided after the article was released that she would drop the glamor, which caused a few problems. Boys would keep coming up to her and hitting on her because she was hot. Viktor told her he would stay close to her because it started to creep her out.
Several people would come up to her and Harry, asking if the article was accurate after the fifth person asked. Harry got annoyed. Charlie had to keep a hand on hers to keep her from going off. It got worse when the teachers were also the ones asking. The only one who really surprised Harry was Snape.
Snape came over almost at the end of breakfast. "Professor, everything in the article is the truth. If you don't like it, then kiss my ass." Harry said not care if she lost house points. Snape shook his head. "that's not what I wanted." He said as he kneeled in front of her. "Harry, I knew your mother when I was a child. When we came to Hogwarts, we drew apart, and one day I made a huge mistake. I will have to live with my error in judgment for the rest of my life because it cost me something I could have been pleased with. I took it out on you, and I shouldn't have. I wanted to apologize even though I don't deserve forgiveness from you or your mother. I do have some photos of her if you want them. Just come by my office. And again, I am sorry." He said as he walked away. Harry just watched him walk away, confused. "Do you think he meant it," Hermione said even though she was confused. Harry just shook her head. "I don't know. I think he did. I just could sense his pain and sorrow. I'll have to think about it." Harry said, taking a drink of her chocolate milk and eggs.
Suddenly the doors of the great hall opened, and a huge black grim came strolling in. it spotted Harry and raced over to her. Everyone thought it would attack, but it only jumped on her and licked her cheek. "Padfoot, get down." Harry cried, laughing. The dog back off only to jump on Hermione next, giving her the same treatment. "what the heck? What is with this dog?" Viktor said. Both Harry and Hermione just started giggling. Suddenly the dog transforms into a man. Both Viktor and Charlie got worried. It was Sirius black. "Guess what, girls, Daddy is free!" Sirius said, laughing. "that's great! When did that happen." Harry asked. "about two hours ago. Amile had me secretly arrive at the ministry and got me a trial this morning. I was questioned under veritaserum and found me innocent. The only I was guilty of was not registering my Animagus, which I did, and I was given 100 million gallons per year I was incarcerated. So now I am free and take care of my girls." He said with a smile. "that's awesome. Sirius." Hermione said. She wasn't sure if she was ready to call him dad or father, which Sirius understood but didn't stop him from getting to know his daughter. "Hermione, I did get in contact with the grangers. They were going to tell you about being adopted this summer. I didn't tell them much, just you found out and had questions, so…" He said, pointing to the door. A man with light brown hair and a mustache walks in with a woman with long brown curly hair, both looking around. "Dad, mum," Hermione said as she walked up to them. "Hermione, we have missed you." Her mom, Sheila, said, pulling her into a hug. "But how do you know it's me," Hermione asked. "Sirius, he explained that you had a glamor on you and showed us a picture of your true identity. Baby, you look beautiful." Her Father, Jason, said with a smile.
Hermione looked at Sirius, telling him to thank him before falling on Viktor. "mother, father, this is my boyfriend, Viktor." She said nervously. Viktor immediately came over and took her hand. "it's a pleasure to meet my love's parents." He said, holding out a hand for Jason to take. Of course, Jason eyes Viktor up and down before taking his hand. "it's good to meet you too. Do you attend Hogwarts?" he asked. "I will be. I have put in a transfer to be with your daughter. I feel like I need to be here." Viktor said, bringing Hermione's hand to his lips and kissing it. Jason and Sheila look at each other with a knowing smile. "why don't you four go to my room and talk? I need to check on Godric anyway." Harry said, getting up. "who, Godric? A pet," Jason asked. "he is my son." Harry said before she could think. "technically, Godric is her little brother, but since she has raised him since her parents died, he calls her mama." Hermione quickly said. Her parents seem to believe that.
They all went up to Harry's room. Godric came out of his playroom when he heard his mama. "mama, play, mama play." He said. "only for a bit, baby. Aunt Hermione needs to talk to her parents." Harry said. They could see Sheila and Jason were confused about seeing Godric. They knew Harry's parents died 13 years ago, and Godric looked like a four-year-old or younger. "are you sure he is your brother? I thought your parents died 13 years ago, and your son looks only 3-4." Jason said. "your right. It's hard to explain, and you might not want to understand without being magical." She said, picking up Godric. "Godric is my son. I didn't give birth to him. one morning after a night of feeling unsafe. He appeared sleeping next to me, and I just knew who he was." Harry said, kissing Godric's head as he looked at the grangers. "we understand. It's the same with Hermione. We might not be the one who gave her life, but we still love her." Shelia said. Harry smiled as they said this. They might be more open to the world of magic than she thought. "babe, we need to get going. We have an appointment at the bank." Charlie said, placing a hand on her shoulder. "oh did that application come through? Charlie hopes to open his business here at the school." Harry said. the granger nodded. "we must hurry, bankers." Charlie said. Harry and Godric wave good-by. They were leaving Hermione, Viktor, and Sirius alone with her parents.
