Chapter 2- Reflections and explanations
Harry and Ginny's locked gazes dropped as they both spun around and caught sight of another figure approaching.
"Who are you?" the figure asked again stepping into the moonlight. Jaws dropped as a boy of about seventeen years old stepped forward. After a few moments Harry spoke in a shaky voice.
"Dad?" James Potter's eyes went wide, confusion clouding his face. This boy, whoever he was, seemed to be very mistaken. He didn't have a child, he was only seventeen and this boy must be fourteen or fifteen. James was about to point this out, when he saw the boy properly for the first time. `My God!' he thought, feeling slightly numb with shock. `He looks so like me!' Shaking himself out of a trance, James heard the girl speak.
"Harry, what's going on?" Ginny hadn't realised that she had edged closer to Harry, he didn't seem to either; his gaze was fixed on James.
"I don't know, Ginny. Really I don't know!" Harry shook his head. Just what was going on? Maybe it was a dream, but then why was Ginny in it?
"Well, someone's got to!" Ginny seemed to be panicking now. James, still in a state of confusion, suddenly had an idea.
"I think we'd better go see Dumbledore."
"Fizzing whizbee." The stone gargoyle swung open, revealing a winding staircase. James led the way, occasionally sneaking glances at Harry, then shaking his head. The three had been quiet since they left the Quidditch pitch; anymore conversation would probably confuse them even more. Ginny had taken in her surroundings as she stayed close to Harry. It was definitely Hogwarts, it looked exactly the same, but was yet different. Ginny was brought out of her thoughts by a loud knocking.
"Come in." James pushed open the large oak door, turning to let Harry and Ginny in first. As the students entered, Dumbledore raised his head. A noticeable younger Professor McGonagall gave them a bewildered look.
"Sorry to interrupt, Sir." James began, but was cut off by Dumbledore, who smiled warmly at him.
"Quite all right, James. So what is it you need to see me about?" Again Dumbledore looked pointedly at the two new arrivals. James took a deep breath, thinking that what he was about to say was crazy. But come to that, would anything at Hogwarts ever surprise Dumbledore?
"Well, you see Sir, I was getting in some extra practice on the Quidditch pitch." McGonagall gave her star player a small smile. "Anyway, I was out on the Quidditch pitch, when there was this flash of light and they appeared out of nowhere." He quickly gestured towards Harry and Ginny, who seemed to be staring at the teachers in awe. None of this seemed to faze Dumbledore, although he did look slightly puzzled.
"Thank you James. Would you might waiting outside?" Shaking his head, James left, giving Harry one last glance. There was silence for a few moments, before Dumbledore spoke.
"I think we'd better establish who you are, where you came from, and how you got here." He gestured for them to sit down, which they did. Both still looking very shocked. Harry was deep in thought, and only just heard Ginny meekly say her name.
"H-Harry Potter." He replied, when Dumbledore looked questioningly at him. Dumbledore raised his eyebrows at Harry's answer.
"May I ask what your parents are called?" Harry took a deep breath, what was going on. He felt incredibly dizzy and felt like he was going insane.
"Lily and James Potter." McGonagall let out a small gasp. Dumbledore rose from his seat and looked intently at Harry.
"What is the year?" The headmaster asked, giving a quick glance to Professor McGonagall, who seriously looked like she would faint any minute.
"1995. Professor Dumbledore, I really don't know what's going on here." Harry glanced at Ginny, who was deadly pale and seemed to be trembling. He didn't know what possessed him to do it, but he reached for her hand and squeezed it comfortingly. Ginny tensed slightly but then slowly began to stop trembling.
"That would make two of us Mr Potter," Dumbledore sighed slightly.
"Y-you don't th-think it was you-know-who d-do you Harry?" Ginny stuttered.
"You-know-who?" Professor McGonagall questioned, Harry let his concerned gaze drift from Ginny to Professor McGonagall and then to Dumbledore.
"Lord Voldemort." Harry spat out with venom and Ginny winced.
"Why Voldemort?" Dumbledore asked noticing Ginny wince at the mention of his name again.
"Because Sir, he is trying to kill me." Harry spoke simply and Professor McGonagall gave a short gasp.
There was silence for a few moments as Dumbledore thought intently, he then spoke.
"May I inquire to which school years the two of you are in? Until we establish how and why you have graced us with a visit, I think it best for you to continue with your studies." Harry nodded slightly before answering.
"Fifth year."
"Fourth," Ginny spoke quietly and shakily.
"Well, tomorrow I will inform the rest of the school of the arrival of our latest exchange students and you will begin your lessons Monday."
"Um, excuse me Sir?" Harry asked watching Ginny turn slightly green and felt protective over her. Dumbledore offered Harry his undivided attention. "It's just that I...well I feel that we should stay together."
"I understand Mr Potter, however-"
"I'm sorry to interrupt Professor but Ginny is extremely smart and I'll work hard to help her catch up, please?" Ginny stared at Harry in surprise and then at Dumbledore pleadingly. He smiled warmly as his bright eyes twinkled.
"I will give my consent if Miss Weasley is prepared to dedicate her time to complete the work." Ginny nodded vigorously. "Very well then. Minerva, please escort Miss Weasley to the hospital wing where she can get rested, Mr Potter will follow shortly and tell James that I will be with him in a few moments." Ginny was escorted out by Professor McGonagall and as the door shut Dumbledore turned to Harry.
"I think you better start from the beginning, Harry."
