Sparkely gem: you will never see St. Ursula's again so no Eugene!
A/N sigh this is the last time that Eleanor will be a magical person sob.
Eleanor woke up her head pounding. She opened her eyes to find that she was staring at some polished mahogany, the banging carried on. She realised that her head wasn't banging on the contrary the door at the other end of the room was.
She got up and opened the door. "Professor Dumbledore!" the boy sighed "I've been banging on the door for ages."
I stared at him, but he was all fuzzy. "Wait one second young man I need to find my glasses. Accio glasses."
A pair of glasses came into her hands, which she quickly put on. The view was still fuzzy. "Professor? You're wearing my glasses do you want me to find your ones?"
"Why of course!" said Eleanor handing back the glasses to the un-none boy.
"Here they are professor." Said the boy handing her some glasses. Eleanor quickly put them on and found Harry Potter staring at her.
"Now what can I do for you?"
"Well it's just that I haven't heard from-"
Suddenly the door opened wide and a little red head was standing in the doorframe. "Ah Mister Potter and Miss Evans I assume." Said the girl.
"Professor Dumbledore I'm so glad some one could find a way to get me home. I've been going crazy."
"What's going on?" asked Harry
"That's a very good question." Said Eleanor.
"I have the answer but first Freo Solebro."
Eleanor suddenly found her self in her own body. "Yes, I'm so happy. I'm finally me again!"
"I believe you should take a seat Eleanor."
"Who are you?" asked Harry
"That's a question you're both about to answer."
"What?" asked both Eleanor and Harry.
"Harry do you by any chance know what your mothers maiden name was?"
"Well…no."
"It's Evans." Answered Eleanor quickly.
"How do you know that?" asked Harry
"J K Rowling told us."
"Who?"
"A muggle author who writes a series of books there will be seven eventually we're still waiting for the fifth at the moment. The books they're about… well… Harry Potter"
Harry chocked. "J K Rowling?" asked Dumbledore
"Joanne Kathleen Rowling."
"I know who you mean!" smiled Dumbledore "Just the type of witch to do something like hat as well. But going back your mother's maiden name was Evans. She had a father called Henry who had a twin brother called Harry." Started Dumbledore.
"You're not saying what I think you mean? Grandfather Harry?"
"I believe you do."
"So I'm Harry's third cousin? Lily's second. There's my dad the son of Harry Lily's cousin and then me the second cousin."
"That's right."
Suddenly Eleanor was in a tight hug."
"I have a family that doesn't hate me?"
"More than you know." Muttered Eleanor
"Now Eleanor you need to explain to me what happened
***
"…Then I woke up and I was you. But I don't know how you got here."
Dumbledore smiled. "Well I was doing some Admin and the clock struck twelve and I was suddenly somewhere else. I got out of bed and found I was in a muggle house. So I left the house and found I was on the street that Remus Lupin used to live on."
"I knew it was him and his little dog to! Actually it was quite a big dog quite like the grim."
"So I apparated to Hogsmead and walked the rest of the way."
"How did you apparate with no wand."
"I'm a wandless magi Eleanor."
"So, you were in MY body as a muggle."
"Eleanor when you change bodies you keep your magical powers. You are a witch."
"But…"
"You are what we call a late bloomer. Now I believe you need to go get Sirius and explain the predicament."
Eleanor grinned "I believe I do. Is the floo network connected to this office?"
"Yes it is. The floo number is home."
"Leave it up to them." Muttered Eleanor, taking some floo from Dumbledore and stepping into the flames.
She appeared in a grate that she recognised from the day previously. The room was empty apart from a black dog that was looking at her peculiarly. "So Sirius are you going to stay like that all day?" she asked
The dog stared at her. "You know who I am don't you Sirius. You were me yesterday. Dumbledore is really going to get annoyed if you don't change back."
The dog popped into Sirius. "But you're a muggle."
"That's what I thought but Dumbledore has told me differently. PRONGS." She yelled.
Sirius looked at her surprised. "You know?"
"Well if you were in my body where do you think I was?"
"Well I don't know."
Just then James walked in.
"Oh shit."
He turned and walked out again. "James Potter what the hell do you think you are doing?"
He stopped in his tracks. "What didn't think I knew you?"
He turned at stared. "Sirius why have you let a muggle into our house with pyjamas on?"
Eleanor looked down she was wearing pyjamas. "First off I'm not a muggle. Second he didn't let me in I came via the floo network. Third I know who you are because I spent the day with you yesterday unawares. But moving swiftly on Dumbledore wants Sirius, so I'm thinking that you should come as well."
"I couldn't face them all, no it's been 15 years they'll all hate me. I've got nothing to live for any way with Lily and Harry gone."
Eleanor grimaced. "First off say that to me again and you will be dead second Sirius why didn't you tell him."
"Well, I erm never got round to it."
"What do you mean you never got round to it? You haven't told him one of the most important things in his life ever."
"Well he didn't seem ready."
"Sirius, James sit down now." They obliged. "James first off why aren't you dead?"
"Well, when Avada Kedavra came it missed me but hit something else which fell on top of me I blacked out. When I woke up the whole house was in ruins I looked around and saw Lily and Harry on the floor dead. So I ran and carried on running I came to a forest that was about 5 miles from our house turned into a stag and stayed there. A week ago Sirius was travelling through the forest as a dog he saw me and followed, he wouldn't leave me alone and eventually I changed back and have been living here since then."
"But Sirius still hasn't told you?"
"Told me what?"
"You can't tell him." Said and annoyed Sirius
"Tough luck. James, Harry is alive."
Could leave it there but I'm not going to.
"How?" he asked meekly
"When Lily died she put a protection thing on Harry. Voldemort hadn't encountered Love before it rebounded the curse straight back on to him. So Harry is alive at Hogwarts in sixth year as a prefect getting into a lot of trouble that he doesn't want to get into which he can tell you all about once we get to Hogwarts."
"But, I can't he'll hate me think I'm a failure he won't like me. He'd prefer to stay with Sirius or Remus that means I'll have to go for the summer but I won't mind."
"Another thing that you don't know. Sirius isn't allowed to look after Harry as he is on the run from the ministry as they think he gave you up to Voldemort so at the moment Harry is living at the Dursleys."
"If you don't go and tell him I will."
"You can't you have no right to." Interrupted Sirius
"Why's that?"
"Because first of all I don't know who the hell you are and someone that isn't realeted to him or in custody should tell him."
"Well my name's Eleanor Evans. Daughter of Lily Evans cousin. So I'm Lily's second cousin, Harry's third I'm the only family he has a t the moment that is not escaping from the ministry and that actually likes him. So James if you want me to break Harry's heart by telling him that you're alive but don't want to see him I'll tell him but Sirius will unfortunately not be there to pick up the pieces will he?"
"But, I've never met you." Said Sirius "why is he living with the Dursleys instead of you?"
"I'm a late bloomer only found out today."
"So you don't know anything about him!"
"Quite the opposite. In 1st year Harry went after the Philosophers stone as he thought that Snape was after it and that he was going to give it to Voldemort. But instead Quirrel was after it and he stopped that from happening after getting through a series of obstacles.
In his 2nd year the chamber of secrets was open. Every one was against him as he was a parselmouth and accidentally revealed that to every one in duelling club. At the end of the year Ginny Weasley was taken into the Chamber. Ron and Harry worked out where it was and went after her and got her back. It was really Tom Riddle in the form of a diary.
In his 3rd year-"
"You can stop now." Interrupted Sirius
"Thank you. Now will you tell Harry?"
"I can't."
"The Dursleys locked him in a cupboard until he was eleven."
"How dare they."
"See you still care. You're coming with me. It also gives us the chance to free Sirius. Lets see James pass me your wand." She was given a wand. "Reducio." She said pointing at James. "You're staying in my pocket until the right moment. Sirius you go first."
Sirius left leaving Eleanor in the room. "I guess that's the last time I see this place."
She got into the grate and left. When she got out of the fire place she found the minister of magic pointing his wand at Sirius heart.
So that's where I'm going to leave you. So she's a witch big surprise not. So Harry and James are going to be reunited. Lily will not be coming back so don't ask after all there's only 2 chapter and an epilogue left.
So as ever read & Review
