Part 2

What is going on here? What the hell is going on here? My mother is supposed to be dead, not standing in front of me. Thoughts whirled through Harry's head.
"Harry? Are you all right?" Lily Potter asked worridly.
"What is going on?" Harry asked dazedly.
"Oh dear, you aren't still sick are you?" Lily asked, "Maybe you should lie down. If you're still sick, you shouldn't be up."
"Well, I really don't feel all that great." Harry said. Truthfully, he really didn't feel good. He felt like he was going to pass out at any moment.
"Bed, now." Lily said firmly, leading her son back to his bed.
"What is going on?" Harry repeated his earlier question as he lay down.
"You've been sick for quite awhile." Lily said, "Now, go back to sleep. If you need anything, just call." with that, she left.
"Why is my mum alive? She's dead...at least I think she's dead and so does everyone else." Harry started muttering to himself. "But if she's alive, that means Voldemort didn't try and kill us, or he did and someone stopped him...Pettigrew might've never told him where we live? Maybe that's what happened..." then he stopped abruptly, "Why am I talking to myself? Even worse, why am I talking to myself and answering myself?"
There was a knock on his door then, interupting his thoughts.
"Uhh...come in?" Harry said tentatively.
The door opened to reveal James Potter standing there. Along with three other familiar figures.
"Well, you're awake now." Sirius said, poking his head in.
Harry didn't acknowledge this. He was too busy staring at Peter Pettigrew with round eyes. Pettigrew...in my room? Uh-uh, no way.
"Harry, are you all right?" James asked, concerned, "You look like you're terrified of something."
"N-nothing, Dad." Harry swallowed, his eyes returning to normal size.
"So, you're feeling better now, Harry?" Remus asked.
"Uhh...yeah." Harry said, "Erm...what day is it?"
"July 29, two days before your birthday." Peter said helpfully.
Harry controlled his reaction when Peter spoke. He felt like shuddering or running from the room screaming.
"You were pretty sick there for a while." James said, "I'm glad you're all right now."
"Yeah, I'm fine...except I seem to be a little out of it." Harry said. Well, it is the truth...in a way.
"Dad? Is Harry all right?" a voice asked from outside the room. It sounded like a female voice.
"Yes, Rosie, Harry's awake." James called back, "You can come in."
"I'm so glad you're all right!" a girl, around seven, ran into the room and flung her arms around Harry's neck.
"Yeah...Hi...Rosie." Harry said, recalling the girl's name.
"You had me scared." Rosie raised her face to look at him. She let go of him and her expression became stern. She pointed a warning finger at him, "If you ever do that again, big brother, you will be very, very sorry."
Big brother? Oh Lord, I have a sister? Harry's mind reeled.
Rosie Potter had long dark red hair that was pulled back in a braid and warm blue eyes, much like James's.
"Now, now, Rosie. You're brother's been quite sick. Where's Aurora? Isn't she supposed to be looking after you?" Remus asked.
"Rosie? Where are you?" a voice floated up from downstairs.
"See?" Remus smiled.
"Are you giving my daughter trouble, little Miss Rosie Potter." Sirius said, mock-sternly.
Sirius has a daughter? Okay, now this is officially screwed-up. Harry thought, Do Lupin and Pettigrew also have kids?
"I'm not giving Aurora trouble, honest, Mr. Black." Rosie said, ther perfect image of innocence.
"Yeah, sure you're not." a girl, around Harry's age appeared in the doorway. SHe had long curly black hair and glittering brown eyes.
"Hi Aurora." Rosie smiled.
"Come on, you. You know you're not supposed to be bugging your brother. He's been sick." Aurora Black said.
"Okay." Rosie said reluctantly. She then allowed Aurora to lead her from the room.
"Glad you're feeling better, Harry." Aurora called.
"Harry needs rest, not four Aurors congregation in his room!" Lily appeared in the doorway, "Now, shoo, shoo!"
"Yes, Mrs. Potter." Sirius said in a school-child voice.
"Stop it." Lily said, "Now everyone, OUT!" she said sternly.
The four men sighed.
"There's just no use arguing with her." James said, "See you later, Harry."
"Get out of bed quickly so we can play Quidditch." Sirius said.
"See you tomorrow." Remus and Peter chorused and the five people left.
This place just keeps getting weirder and weirder. I have a sister and Sirius has a gdaughter. If this is how weird it is when I'm just at home. I don't want to know what it's liek at Hogwarts. Harry thought sleepily. Then a thought made him bolt upright.
"What if Voldemort is still in power?"
