Chapter 3

Learning of Emily &

The Rest is History

James Ian Potter walked down the hallway towards a bedroom. It was 3:00 in the afternoon but he didn't care really.

James made sure not to make any sound as he walked toward the door. Quietly he opened it and walked into the room.

He wondered over to a baby crib in the far corner of the room, laying in the crib laied a 6 month year old baby boy.

James looked fondly at his son, (well the little boy wasn't really his son because he was adopted the moment he was born), Harry.

Him and his wife Lily called him Harry James Potter and using a 'cambie apperance' spell on baby Harry the moment they got home so that he would look more like him and Lily.



All of a sudden James felt a hand on his shoulder, he spun around, wand in hand, and came face to face with.... Remus Lupin.

" Remus you jerk," wisperd James " you nearly gave me a heart attack."

Remus got a smerk on his face.

" Oh and no one would want that to happen now, would they?"

"Shhhhhh.... or you'll wake Harry up, if Lily even found out I was in here she would kill me." said James as he and Remus walked out of the room and shut the door behind them.

"Why would she kill you?" asked Remus

" Because Harry hasn't been getting very much sleep since we brought him home." James and Lily never told any of there friends that Harry was adopted, and they intended to keep it that way.



Mr. and Mrs. James Potter had figured out a story with Harry. Of course they both knew the reason that Harry was up at night was because he knew (that was what they couldn't figure out was how he knew.), that the two people that were caring for him were not his real parents.



"Welll.....When me and Lily brought him back from the hospital we moved into the manor, and he got so used to there, now that we are here in the cottage he has new surroundings."

Remus looked at James for a moment, then crossed his arms.

"I don't belive you, James." James turned to look at his friend.

"Wh....what do you mean Remus?"

"You think I'm stupid. James, Harry isent your son."

"What are you talking about?" Said James acting like he had no idea what Remus saying. "Of course he's my son."

Remus just shook his head.

"No he isn't. You adopted him. He doesn't have your or Lily's sent on him that would indacte that he was you son."

James looked at Remus then hung his shoulders in defet.

"Yes Remus your right. Mine and Lily's *real* child was girl her name was Emily* Lynn** Potter. She was a still-born, I don't know who Harry's real parents are but me and Lily intend to give him a loving family. Please Remus you are the only one who knows this so please don't tell anyone."

Remus looked into his friends eyes. "Ok James," He said. "I promise."

10 MONTHS LATER



Lily Ann Potter was standing at the sink washing that evenings dishes.

It was 7:00 on Hallowe'en night just a coulple of mounthes after Harry's first birthday. Her husband James Ian Potter was playing on the floor with said son.

The Dark Lord was getting more and more powerful each day and with Lily and James being his top targets they had to go into hiding when Harry was only 6 months old.

These days James was getting more and more nervuse, like he was waiting for the Dark Lord to barge in at any moment, and the only thing Lily could do to calm him down was to play with Harry.

Just then the door burst open and there stood Lord Voldamort himselfJames jumped up and pulled out his wand.

"Lily take Harry and run. I'll hold him off."



The rest is all history. The only thing that no one saw ( or knew), about that night was the fact that....a dark figure holding a bundle, had jumped out of the nesurey window of the Potters cottage.

* Emily is my little sisters name and she likes Harry Potter as much as I do and shes only 5.

** Lynn is my.....the authors.....middle name.
