Chapter thirteen: Thabit

Harry snuggled into something warm next to him. Then it hit him. Someone was in his bed. He opened one eye and saw bushy, brown hairs. 'It's just Hermione' he thought and came back to sleep.

Few hours later he heard someone opening the door to his room and he heard Sirius voice.

"Harry I brought you fresh clothes"

There was a second of silence followed by a strange cry "Arghh...! Oh my God! Sweet Merlin!"

Harry bolted up wide awake, as well as Hermione and they saw Sirius bent down leaning on the doorframe. Quick footsteps were heard from the distance.

"What the hell is going on Sirius? You found a Boggart in your wardrobe?" asked Mirzam entering the room.

"Worse" Sirius managed to moan.

Mirzam gaped at Harry and Hermione. Then she giggled quietly. Harry stared at her and it made her giggle louder.

"What it's so funny?" asked Harry from the bed.

Mirzam burst in laugh.

"Nothing" she choked after she calmed a little.

Harry raised eyebrow.

"You managed to scare the shit out from Sirius. I didn't think that someone could do this lately" Mirzam giggled again.

Sirius threw her dirty look "You didn't saw them before"

"I did" she said.

"When?"

"Around 5am in the morning. I checked all bedrooms if everything was all right and Hermione's bed was empty so I checked Harry's bedroom. I saw them sleeping together so sweetly that I didn't want to wake them so I left" Mirzam answered.

Sirius stared at her and muttered something about being to old for some things.

Hermione sniggered "You thought that we did something?"

"You better didn't. I don't want to become godgrandfather, at least in near future" Sirius mumbled.

That sent other three into fits of giggles.

"Well I would inform you about this if we did something" said Harry.

"That reminds me that there is something what Sirius should know about" said Hermione poking Harry in his ribs.

Sirius looked like he was going to faint which sent Mirzam into another fit of laugh.

"Well, it's not what you think, so don't faint, please" said Harry.

"So what it is?" asked Sirius.

"Hermione and I are together, but not the way you think we are, not yet" said Harry.

Sirius calmed down a bit "I think that we should talk today"

"We are talking know" said Harry.

"I mean another kind of talk" Sirius said and left the room.

Mirzam stopped laughing "I will better find him, he is not in good state now. See you at breakfast" she said and left the room.

Hermione and Harry gapped at themselves and burst in laugh.

"We have new game 'Shock Sirius" Hermione giggled.

Breakfast passed in good atmosphere. Mirzam come to the kitchen in the middle of this and was giggling constantly. Sirius didn't appeared at all.

After breakfast Mirzam told Harry "Sirius is in his room. He wants to speak with you, go now, he is so nervous that he can do something stupid" she grabbed Hermione and both girls left the kitchen.

"What was that about?" asked Lupin.

"Nothing, yet" replied Harry and went to Sirius' room.

Hermione gaped at Harry when he managed to enter her room laughing maniacally.

"What happened?" she asked after Harry fall on her bed.

"Sirius. He wanted to talk about birds and bees" Harry giggled again.

"I don't see anything funny in this" said Hermione sitting next to Harry.

"I do. Sirius looked like someone poisoned his breakfast. He was rambling about various potions and spells that much, that I didn't understand at least half of these" answered Harry leaning against headboard.

"I did"

"You did? But how?" asked Harry

"Mirzam, remember? I think, that Sirius asked her to have this talk with me. And we talked, after she calmed down a bit. So I can explain to you what you didn't understand from Sirius' rambling" said Hermione leaning against the headboard next to Harry.

"You asked her about her magus abilities?" asked Harry.

"Not yet. She is your godmother. You should ask her"

"I will. But later"

"I wonder"

"Hmm?"

"Did you saw change in Sirius behaviour? Last year he acted a bit like a spoiled kid. And this year he seems more responsible, more mature. I think it has something to do with Mirzam's presence here"

"It has. After he came back here she gave him a brain concussion"

Hermione gaped at Harry.

"She did. She was more shirty than me about his behaviour in Department of Mysteries. He managed to duck from few hits with 'Great Encyclopaedia of Difficult Spells' but not from all. Maybe it changed his behaviour"

"You mean she knocked some sense into his mind?"

"Personally, yes"

"I don't think so Harry, I can see that Sirius is acting more mature around her. I think that it took more than brain concussion to change Sirius' behaviour"

"You are suggesting that he is in love with her?" Harry asked.

"Yes"

"Their seems comfortable around each other, but did they are in love? I don't think so. I mean, it's clear that Sirius is acting like adult he is supposed to be. But it is love? I don't think so. They are friends"

"We are friends too" Hermione smiled at Harry.

"But it's not a rule that friends with opposite sex suppose to be with each other, right?"

"Since when you became Mr. I-know-it-all, Harry?"

"Since I spent too much time with you, Mrs. I-know-it-all" Harry kissed the tip of her nose.

They spent the rest of the day with Kyle and Tonks. Tonks looked very nervous. She was opening and closing her mouth like she wished to tell something, but couldn't.

"I will let Remus deal with this" she said and left Hermione's room.

"I swear she is getting weirder with each day" Kyle commented.

"Is there a reason?" Hermione asked.

"Dunno. Should ask dad about this. Checkmate Harry"

They cornered Lupin in the kitchen.

"Daddy!" Kyle exclaimed and jumped on Lupin's knees.

"What brings you here?" Lupin asked.

"Question, daddy dear" said Kyle.

"Shoot"

"Tonks seems weird lately. She said that you, professor, know what's going on" said Hermione.

"Call me Remus. I'm not your professor anymore and I doubt I will be with Kyle going to Hogwarts this year and as for Dora's behaviour..." Lupin stopped not knowing what to say.

That moment Sirius chose to enter the kitchen.

"Sirius my dear old friend..." Remus started.

Sirius glared at him "No way in hell Remus. You're not going to leave it like that. And I have enough of talks about birds and bees for next fifty years" said Sirius and left the kitchen.

Remus yelled after Sirius "Thanks you helped me very much, Sirius!"

"And?" asked Kyle.

"Dora and I are getting married" Remus said quickly.

"Why?" asked Kyle.

"Because um... ask Regulus Kyle, he will know" answered Remus.

"I know about what?" asked Regulus entering the kitchen.

"About you-know-what" answered Remus.

"No way. It is your son Remus and you will tell him this. I can be your mental support but you will tell this" said Regulus leaning against the counter.

"Okay traitors, you are supposed to be my friends" said Remus.

Regulus smiled.

"Dora and I will have a baby" said Remus quickly and closed his eyes.

"It's a wonderful thing" exclaimed Hermione and hugged her guardian.

"Seconded" said Harry and hugged Remus.

"When the kid is going born?" asked Kyle tiling his head to look at his father.

"According to Andie, somewhere in March" answered Remus.

"Boy or girl?" asked Kyle.

"Too early to tell, yet" said Remus.

Regulus grinned.

"Envious Regie?" asked Remus.

"A bit" Regulus answered.

"I think you could manage raising a child on your own Reg. From what I heard about you and kids from Andie you would make a wonderful father" said Remus.

"Sorry Remy. But to have a kid I should have a woman first and I vowed lifelong celibacy"

Remus snorted "It's going to change you know. I vowed lifelong celibacy too. See where I ended. I'm raising two kids now and third is on the way, and I'm getting married at the end of August"

"Let the guy dwell on dreams for a little time" answered Regulus.

The rest of the day passed in nice atmosphere. Hermione had a talk with Remus about guardianship and Remus explained her few things. Harry spent more time with his godparents talking about many things, but still couldn't bring himself to ask Mirzam about her possible magus abilities. He knew for sure that she was Metamorphomagus because she changed her appearance at last three times during their talk.

They ate dinner in nice atmosphere. Andromeda was still scolding at Sirius and Mirzam about not eating much but they acted like they didn't hear her. Rest of the evening Harry, Hermione and Kyle spent in Harry's bedroom playing Exploding Snap. They stayed up very long until all three fall asleep on Harry's bed.

Quick footsteps on the stairs woke them up. Harry bolted from the bed, opened the door and run down the corridor until he bumped at Sirius.

"What happened?" he asked Sirius.

"Attack. Muggle family. Stay where you are" answered Sirius and disappeared with 'pop'.

Harry came back to his bedroom and tell the others what had happened. Hermione suggested that they should go to the kitchen and prepare a breakfast for the adults. Hour later everything was ready and Hermione placed Warming Charm on this.

"Andromeda told me that Sirius put similar charm like they have at Hogwart about underage wizards. Our magic is untraceable as long as we are in this house. Sirius just forget to tell us" answered Hermione when Harry gaped at her in shock.

They came into main hall and waited. After about fifteen minutes front door opened and adults get inside. Andromeda and Ted first, Mirzam and Dora after them, followed by Regulus with mysterious bundle in his arms, Sirius and Remus at end.

"Bring him upstairs Regulus. Last room, on the right, on third floor is free" said Sirius closing the front door.

Regulus got upstairs followed by Andromeda, Dora and Ted. Sirius showed kids into the kitchen. He was a bit surprised when he saw breakfast on the table. Mirzam and Remus got down with them. They ate breakfast in silence until Kyle asked "What happened?"

"Attack on muggle family. Death Eaters left before we could react. The boy is alive. His mother died" answered Mirzam.

"Did anyone contact Dumbledore?" Sirius asked.

"I did. His message should arrive any minute" answered Mirzam.

Harry, Hermione and Kyle stared at her questioningly.

"Dumbledore promised to check if that kid is school registry. If he is we will be able to find his fa..." Mirzam cut because phoenix feather along with piece of parchment appeared on the table.

She grabbed this and read it, first silently, second time aloud " Thabit Black. Hogwart this year"

"I think Regulus should take a glance at this" said Sirius standing up from the table.

They found themselves in room at the end of corridor on third floor. Regulus read the message from Dumbledore.

"It didn't tell too much" he said.

"It didn't? He is a Black" Sirius pointed at unconscious body on the bed.

Regulus shook his head "Black is also common name between muggle families Sirius"

Then he looked like he was thinking about something but after few seconds he shook his head.

"We know that he has a father, we should find him" said Sirius.

"It's not so simple Sirius and you know this. I could use Familious Potion on him. But I can't as long as he is in this state" said Regulus looking at the boy.

"Not to mention that we don't have that potion" said Andromeda.

"I can brew this" said Regulus.

"I will help you. Dora, Ted go to work we don't need you here. Mirzam, Sirius, Remus go to Dumbledore and try to find more. Harry, Hermione, Kyle could you stay here and report us if something changed. We will be in potions room on the ground floor" Andromeda ordered.

Harry, Hermione and Kyle nodded. Adults left the room and three young wizards sat down on the bed. Harry stared at young boy on the bed. He has long, jet-black hair. His face had something aristocratic, yet familiar. He was rather tiny and judging by place he occupied on bed he was rather tall for his age.

Minutes passed agonizingly slowly and changed to hour when the boy shifted a bit. Then he sat straight and shifted back against the headboard. He gaped wide eyes at three kids around him.

"Where am I? What happened?" he asked and Harry saw pure horror in his grey eyes. 'Wait a minute. Grey eyes?' Harry thought.

"You are in London" answered Hermione.

"Exactly where in London?" boy asked again.

Hermione glanced at Harry and Kyle silently asking for help.

"Grim Manor" answered Kyle.

"It didn't tell too much you know" said the boy.

"Grimmauld Place. You are safe here" said Harry trying to calm him.

"Do you remember what had happened?" asked Kyle.

The boy rubbed his temples "Yes, but it seems to me like some kind of horror"

Hermione put reassuring hand on boy's hand.

"I was in the garden then I heard my mother scream. I ran in the kitchen and I saw three people in black robes with masks on their faces. They have sticks in their hands and one of them pointed at my mother and she fainted" said the boy with breaking voice.

"Did he said something?" asked Harry.

"Yes. Something what sound like 'Abrakadabra'. I mean it's stupid, my mother always told me that magic don't exist"

"Did she tell you more about this?" asked Kyle.

"Sort of. I always believe that magic exist and she always told me that I'm just like my father always speaking about magic"

"What happened to him?" asked Hermione.

"I don't know. He was with my mother about three days. That's when I was conceived. He just left one day and didn't appear again" answered the boy rubbing his temples again.

"How are you felling?" asked Hermione.

"My head hurts. I think I hit my head about something when another people entered the kitchen"

"I will get down" said Kyle and left the room.

"How do they look like?" asked Harry.

"They were dressed like this others but they didn't have masks. Then one of them pointed his stick at this people with masks and yelled something. I saw that light come from the stick I think it supposed to hit one of the masked people but they just disappeared and the light hit the window and shattered the glass. That's the last thing I remember" answered the boy rubbing his temples once again.

"What's your name?" asked Hermione.

"Thabit. Thabit Black"

"Black was your mother's name?" asked Harry.

"No, it was my father's name. Just like my father's first name, mother told me that he told her once that everyone in his family was named after star or constellation. It's a nice tradition, isn't it?" asked Thabit.

In Harry's head something exploded with the force of a bomb. 'Stars, constellations, Ancient and Noble Hose of Blacks'.

"By the way what's your names?" asked Thabit.

"Hermione Granger and this is Harry Potter, this one who left was Kyle..." Hermione glanced at Harry.

"Kyle something. We forget to ask him about this" answered Harry whishing that Kyle could came back quickly with someone.

His wish came true because Regulus entered the room with Kyle at his heels.

"How are you felling?" asked Regulus taking Thabit's face into his hands and looking straight into his eyes.

"My head hurts" answered Thabit.

"It should, you have a nasty bump on the back of your head and as I assume mild brain concussion" said Regulus taking glass from Kyle and handing this to Thabit "Drink, this it should help"

Thabit glanced at the glass suspiciously but he drunk everything "It's disgusting" he said.

"But it will help you" said Regulus.

Then three cracks were heard. One somewhere in the house and two in the bedroom. Thabit screamed and pulled the covers above his head.

"Brilliant you two, you scared him" Regulus growled towards Sirius and Mirzam "Did you found something?"

"Nothing" both answered.

"How is he?" asked Mirzam.

"Better. I think that I could give him the potion when Andromeda will end it, she should be here any minute" answered Regulus.

Thabit pulled back the covers just a bit to see new arrivals. Andromeda chose that moment to enter the room with the vial of potion in her hands, Remus after her with small knife and piece of parchment in his hands.

"Everything is ready Regulus. Do you know what to do?" asked Andromeda.

"Yes. I did this before few times. Thabit, I want you to drink this" said Regulus.

"Why?" asked Thabit.

"It will help us in finding your father" answered Regulus.

"Really?" asked Thabit his eyes lightened at the prospect of finding his father.

"Really" answered Regulus taking the vial from Andromeda, pouring it into a glass and giving it to Thabit.

Thabit drunk it eagerly "What now?" he asked.

"Now we will wait. It has to mix with your blood system" said Regulus and everybody sat down around the bed.

Five minutes passed and Regulus took the knife and parchment from Remus. He cut Thabit's hand, not too deep but deep enough to draw few droops of blood, he let it fall at parchment and covered the cut with handkerchief. He then took the parchment and leaned against the wall staring at parchment fascinated.

Suddenly Regulus gasped and slumped down on the wall. He put his face in his hands, he still clutched the parchment in one hand then he sobbed.

Sirius stand up from the bed and bent down gently taking the parchment from Regulus hands. He gaped at it, gasped in shock and very gently raised Regulus from the ground and he showed him out from the room marching behind him. The door was closed and, because they didn't hear anything Harry thought that they either went somewhere else or put silencing charm on the door. They came back after two minutes. Sirius first, still shocked, but he looked like he calmed down a bit. Regulus on the other hand has trace of tears on his face and desperation in his eyes.

He took one breath then another, and Harry knew.

"Thabit. We found your father" said Sirius and everybody around take a breath.

"Where he is? Who he is?" asked Thabit almost jumping at Sirius from happiness.

"It's me" said Regulus opening his arms tentatively.

Thabit looked at Regulus wide eyed then he jumped.

"Daddy!"

Regulus hugged him tightly.

"Son. My son"
