Disclaimer: I don't anything to do with HP, but i do own this short story!
A/N remember, Serena thinks her father died a long time ago and that she never knew who he was.
"What!" The two children said in unison again.
"First the Prophecy and now this!" Harry yelled with rage.
"Harry, keep you voice down, we don't know who could be listening." Dumbledore whispered, then, turning to Serena asked, "Serena, why were you so late to get here?"
Stunned at how Dumbledore changed the subject so quickly she answered, "My window was closed when the owl came and I was down stairs. I didn't get the letter until 20 minuets ago when my cat found him and brought him in." then she sighed "Professor, I'm confused, will you please explain."
"You're not the only one who's confused!" Harry had gotten his nerve back after the last few minuets. "Yes, Professor, I would really like an explanation also. We both have the right to know!"
"Yes you do! But it isn't anything I can explain to you now. Wait until we're in the privacy of Hogwarts." At that, Dumbledore started to walk away, behind a building where he could disapparate safely without any nosey muggles looking out their windows to see what the shouting was about. With him behind the building it would give muggles the illusion of two teenagers breaking up.
"Petrificus Totalus!"
"Crap! I can't believe I just put a damper on my record!" Serena yelled right when Dumbledore hit the ground.
"Uh, Serena. I don't know if you noticed, but you just stunned the Headmaster!" Harry told her.
"CRAP! I really need to learn and control my temper! Mum says it's all from-" She stopped before she could finished her sentence.
"Form what?" Harry asked
"From my father." Serena answered and walked over to the nearest bench and began to cry.
"It's all too confusing!" Serena muttered after a little while. "I have no idea who my father is and now I'm getting mixed messages! Mum says that he died and Dumbledore is saying that some guy I don't know is the one thing I've wanted all my life" she wiped away a tear.
"Serena" Harry said with a sigh, "Have you heard of Sirius Black?"
"Who hasn't?" Serena chuckled at the question, which turned into a hic-up from the crying.
"Well, oh, first let's get the headmaster back to his normal state." Harry said, remembering that they had left the old wizard on the grass.
After trying numerous spells to un-stun Dumbledore (Serena un-fortunately forgot the counter curse), the headmaster came around.
"Which one of you was it?" He said with a smile.
Harry pointed at Serena, "All her!"
"Sorry Professor, I couldn't help it. Just a reflex, according to my mother. I've done it to many people. I-I was confused." Serena choked out, holding back tears.
"It's not the first time I've been stunned by a Black, or a Potter!"
Harry looked up after being very interested in an interestingly shaped rock. "What?"
"You haven't Harry but your father has."
"Why would he ever stun you?" He was starting to get aggravated. More then anything, He wanted an explanation to the relationship between Serena and his godfather.
"His and Sirius' reaction to the prophecy was intense, like yours." Harry went back to staring (and now kicking) at the rock. "He knew your mother was expecting you around the end of July and when I told your parents and Sirius, three stunning spells hit me at the same time. Now that was an adventure, Madam Pomfrey couldn't revive me until a week later."
"That was a nice story but please explain, as we have been asking, hat this is all about!" Harry could hear anger inside the girls voice.
"It all began at the Potters wedding." Dumbledore began "Sirius was the best man, as you well know Harry, and your mother, Serena, was the Head Bridesmaid. It was the first time Sirius and Amelia had seen each other since Hogwarts. We'll, of course they met up and a month later they were married. Then, two years later, after you two were born, bad things started happening. I had already warned your parents about the Prophecy."
"What Prophecy?" Serena interrupted
"One that Harry can tell you about later." Dumbledore glared at her "Now, where was I? Oh yes! I had warned them about the Prophecy and Sirius and Amelia decided to take into hiding. Every week, Sirius would visit your home, to keep up his secret keeper duties. Unfortunately, after handing over his position as Voldemorts helper to Pettigrew, Sirius went as soon as possible to tell your parents Harry, but you know the rest. After you were taken away from him, he went back to his home but when he arrived, Amelia had fled and taken you with her Serena."
"S-so my father is Sirius Black?" Serena was staring straight into the headmaster eyes.
"Yes. Well, I have some more business I need to attend to. I'll see you both at school. Oh, before I forget, both of you come in Friday to my office, I want to speak to you again. The password's Altoid. It's small mint that the owners of Hunnydukes invented that is curiously strong that they put out on the muggle market. Very enjoyable!" And with a loud CRACK, he disapparated.
