Previously:

"Harry…." He turned to face the two. "I…I know this may sound weird, but I don't think it was a big lost." Lupin and Black exchanged looks. "I mean…father and mother's deaths don't seem to affect me that much. At least not as much as the lost of Sirius." "Sirius scooped Harry up. "At least I got to see them. I mean I'm glad…." Sirius held him tighter. "Don't worry Harry. It'll be all right…" Harry nodded. "Let's go back…." Lupin interrupted. Sirius nodded. The tree headed back to #12 Grimmauld Place.

"…." Talk …. Parasltongue

Chapter 5

The first thing Harry felt, when he arrived was being lifted into a pair of arms. "Oh Harry…Harry dear…you're back…" "Umm…yeah….yeah, yeah I'm back." "Molly please, he's my boy…." Sirius said behind him. "Your boy. I'm afraid not, not with the James and Lily back…." She released Harry, who stood next to his godfather.

"I'm afraid so. Molly…" Lupin said solemnly behind them. "What do you mean Remus…" "I mean…" he showed the group the two dead bodies, clutched in his hands. "They're dead…" Mad-Eye said. "They what…what do you mean…dead…." "Please Minvera….why don't we all sit down and hear what they have got to say…." Dumbledore spoke up, his eyes kept on Harry. "Yes…yes…" Arthur added.

Harry sat down in between Sirius and Remus. The others sat on the other side of them. Remus told them all what happened. By the time he finished, all eyes were on Harry. "So you killed them…Harry. I was right. Voldemort had taken control of him." "Wern't you listening Alastor." Sirius slammed his fist down. "The point is he fought. Harry fought against him. You hear me. You got that!" "Sirius!" Albus cut it quite sharply. "We know that…Sirius. We know that…." He paused, and Snape took the chance to speak. "and this, Potter. You say this has no affect on you." "How can it have no affect on him Severus! They are his parents!" Minvera shouted. "Not a big affect. At least not as much as it would have been if it was either Padfoot or Moony." He answered softly. "That is because you never knew them at all Harry. They did die when you were one." "What does that have to do with it…and yes of course, Harry knows about his parents. Don't you Harry." "Actually no, he does not," Dumbledore began again. "and that is the reason, the deaths of Lily and James did not create a big impact on him, as it may have been to us." "What do you mean Albus…." Mad-Eye said, normal eye stared at the headmaster while the magical one at Harry. "I mean, he never really got a good impression on James." He paused. "I think we all keep forgetting that Harry never knew his parents, and so, it is easy for us to mislead him into thinking what we think." "Mislead?" "Yes. Mislead. I'm sure that before his third year at Hogwarts, he always thought highly of his parents. Did you not Harry?"" "Yes…" "But you still do right…." Sirius added. Harry did not reply.

"Harry, when did you find out Sirius was your godfather? As I recall, no one told you any of it…." "I um overheard…but what does that…." "Everything. You ease dropped on more then you bargained for….not to mentioned you weren't suppose to be in Hogsmade in your third year…." "He never went…I would've known…." "Ah, you don't know Potter. Like father like son. No I should say like godfather like godson…." "You went to Hogsmade illegally, that year when Sirius was on the lose." ""oh please Molly, he just broke a few school rules…." "More then a few…but it could be expected from Potter and Black…." Snape snapped. "Yup. I'll see to it that you won't mess with Harry afterwards…." Sirius snapped back Dumbledore coughed.

"Minvera that day when you were in the three Broomsticks, talking with Flitwick, Hagrid, Cornelius and Rosmerta…." "Yes…" "Well, Potter and his friends were there….they overheard." "You mean his sidekicks, just like Potter and Black, having their own…." Sirius glared at Snape. "they overheard everything." "Yeah…." "Well that was when he heard about Sirius being his godfather, about the Fidelius Charm and…about the part of Black and Potter being troublemakers….the point is it ruined his thoughts about James." "So what, probably we were a little rowdy back then, so…"

"Then on top of that Severus, you always talked poorly of James, just because of a grudge you had against them…. That James stunts around all day with his gang, that he's arrogant. Later on Harry finds that it was true, after a certain memory from you…." "Ah, yes, the one that Harry ask us about…well it severs you right." "I don't think so. I think what he did that day was arrogant. He did that just because you said you were bored." "Harry, we've talked about this already. Please. I mean we were just 15, come on, you can't just judge James like that…" "Well that is the point. Since no one told Harry, how his real father was like, he was forced to endure these silly lies." Dumbledore finished off. "and from now on Snape, I don't want you to hold your childhood grudge against him. Harry is not James…" Snape nodded. "and if you do Snape, and I hear about it, you will have to answer to me…." "to us…." Lupin corrected.

Dumbledore stood up. "This grudge between you three must end. We must move forward, and not backward. Otherwise, more server consequences shall occur. Dumbledore left the room, letting everyone reflect on what had happened.
