Harry Potter & the Order of the Phoenix

Chapter 8

The Four Potters

Harry didn't pay attention to the Sorting Hat's song, but instead looked around for any sign of Phebis Malfoy.  Harry noticed that again there were empty chairs at the High Table.  He knew that Madame Hooch was looking for Pan, but there were still two empty chairs.  Harry guessed they must be some professors he usually didn't notice.

About halfway through the Sorting Ceremony, the door to the Great Hall burst open.  Two people stood there.  One was a boy with back shinny hair and he was wearing old-fashioned clothes.  He was holding…

"My firebolt!" Harry said at once.  Then he noticed the other person.  She also had old-fashioned clothes, but she had red hair and was holding…

"PAN!" Harry shouted.  The two people stepped forward and then the boy spoke.

"Harry, come with us.  You'd better bring your Headprofessor, too."  Harry and Professor McGonagall followed the two people down the hall where Professor Dumbledore was waiting for them with Madame Pomfrey, Ron, and Hermione. 

"Come inside my office, all of you," Dumbledore said calmly.  When they were safe inside the tiny office Dumbledore said, "Now Madame Pomfrey, take that girl to the hospital and clean her up.  When she's healthy, bring her back inside.  The password is 'Butterbeer' by the way."  As soon as Madame Pomfrey was gone, Dumbledore spoke, "Now you two," he pointed to the two wizards who had saved Pan, "Tell us who you are."

"Well, Lord Voldemort created us from tiny hairs that he cut from our heads before he killed us.  That's right, I am James Potter and this is Lily.  Voldemort created us to kill you, Harry.  We are clones of the real Lily and James Potter.  And because Peter, who is dead, forgot to cut the memory circuits off the hairs, we remembered everything from the day we were born to the day we died.  We turned against him and ran all the way to King's Cross so we could get on the Hogwarts Express and warn you.  But then that Malfoy guy came along and threw Pan out the window.  We jumped out after her and then this broom came out of nowhere.  We grabbed Pan and the broom and headed for Hogwarts."

"But how do you know Pan's name?" Harry asked, confused by all that James was saying.

"Well, Harry, Pan's real name is Pan Potter.  No one knew that when you were born, Pan was born too.  She is your twin, Harry.  Knowing that Voldemort would come after us, we gave Pan to Sirius's sister, Dena Jester.  We tried to find a safe place for Harry, but that night Voldemort came and killed us."

"You thought Pan was safe, but Miss Jester really kills Muggle-borns for fun and kept Pan locked away.  Then they stole Hermione and I followed them on my firebolt.  Then I met Pan.  Did you know she has psychic powers?"

"Yes, because I have them," Lily answered.  "But you, Harry, and James don't."

At that moment Pan came in.

"Pan!" Lily shrieked as she flung her arms around her daughter.  Harry was quiet as his parents told his sister everything.  He wondered what the Dursleys would say when they found out that he had a sister.

After everything had been sorted out, Dumbledore told Lily and James to rename themselves so that they could be Madame Pomfrey's assistants and protect Harry.

 "I think I'll call myself Jim Peters and you can be Lyra Peters, my sister, okay?" James said.

"Okay."

"Pan, we shall sort you with the rest of the students," said Professor McGonagall.

"Okay," replied Pan.
