Chapter Two
Previously...........
Harry gasped as the gargoyle moved showing a magnificently decorated..
Continuing...Room. Well, it was more then a room. It was a tower complete with a library. It had an old hat on a stool and a magnificent red bird Harry had only seen in stories. There were more of those talking T.V. pictures and numerous objects surrounding the room. There was a bowl of silvery liquid (the pensisive), several small red balls, (remembral), a large cauldron, a magnificent mahogany desk with a chair fit for a king beside it, plus hundreds of other objects Harry could only think of as magical.
"That's stupid there's no such thing as magic." Harry thought sadly strongly wishing there was.
"Pretty neat huh?" the young women said startling Harry.
Harry nodded. He was still so overwhelmed by everything. Just then an old man with a long white beard, crystal blue eyes, long fingers, a crooked nose, half-moon spectacles, and a twinkle in his eyes came down the stairs of the tower and took a seat in the large chair. He was also wearing a strange robe but his was blue and had stars all over it. He motioned for them to sit down. The lady did but Harry didn't thinking it might be an advantage if he had to run.
"What can I do Ms. Evans," said the old man. "And you my boy" he continued.
"Evans..." thought Harry. "That's Aunt Petunia's maiden name" "O no I think I'm in trouble" He thought getting nervous.
"Well Professor Dumbledore, it seems as if this boy stumbled across Hogwarts this early morning." "At first I thought he was a first year until I realized how small he was" "He told me he found a tiny object on the street and picked up ending up here." The lady addressed as Ms. Evans answered.
"Hmm... pondered Professor Dumbledore. "What's your name my young man?" He asked.
"Harry Sir...Harry...Potter," Harry stammered wondering if it was a good idea to use his real name.
The young lady suddenly turned he head and stared at him. "Your not related to James Potter are you?" she asked.
"He was my dad" Harry said.
"What do you mean was?" she asked. "How could he be your father? He's only nineteen." She said slightly worried.
"Lilly..." said Professor Dumbledore soothingly. "There are many James Potter's in Britain."
"Yes, your right professor, but isn't a little strange how similar they look?" she asked
"Yes..indeed" He said, "I wonder...hmm... shiny object...father...looks like James...dead...No it couldn't be." He whispered.
"What couldn't be" Lilly asked. Harry wondered too but was getting more anxious by the minute trying to debate on running away or not.
"What did you say you found again....Harry...is it?" the professor asked.
"A shiny gold thing on a chain. It had sand in it too." Harry stated.
"A hourglass perhaps?" Professor Dumbledore said with great anticipation in his eyes.
"Yes sir, I think that's what you call them." Harry stated.
"I see." One more question Harry...What year is it?" he said leaning in over his desk.
"1987 Sir." Harry said extremely confused in whether to laugh or not. "How could this man not know what year it was?" He thought.
Glancing over at the lady next to him for advice he noticed she was very pale, and in a matter of milliseconds she her eyes rolled back and she fell to the ground.
"AHHH!" Harry screamed and ran as fast as his little legs could carry him to the large gargoyle, kicking it with all the strength he could muster. "Open Mr." He screamed. "Open open" Harry repeated again on the break of tears. "I didn't mean to make that lady faint. Now I'm going to be in huge trouble." Harry thought kicking the door again and again as the old man watched with a slight look of amusement on his face as he got out of his chair and walked toward him. Harry kicked harder now the old man approached when suddenly he heard an,
"SHIT!"
"What the bloody fuck was that for!"
Harry looked up from where he was kicking and saw a man's leg had replaced the gargoyles wing. Harry screamed once more and cried trying to go through the man's leg.
"Mr.Black..." Professor Dumbledore said warningly with the same twinkle in his eye.
"Right sorry Professor" the young man said picking Harry up difficulty since he was squirming.
"Hey lad. Calm down. I didn't mean to blow a gasket. Just surprised me that's all." The man said.
Harry continued struggling. "Ok....I will put you down if you promise to not leave," the man said.
Harry nodded and when was put down ran to a corner escaping the two adults.
He noticed the man was probably the lady called Lilly's age and he had long black hair that ended past his eyes with piecing black eyes that seemed filled with laughter and courage. He looked strong too and was enormous. (By Harry's view anyway)
"I didn't know you babysat Professor. No offense but your not very good at it." He said and gave a loud bark-like laugh.
Professor Dumbledore chuckled. "Actually Ms. Evans found him," he said pointing to a limp figure on the ground.
"My God! Lilly! What the bloody hell happened to her?" "James going to be seriously pissed" the young man said.
"Sirius...I'm warning you" Dumbledore said
"Right sorry won't happen again Professor....Well not for another hour anyway." Sirius said. "I mean...Oh my good golly gosh what has become of this fair maiden?" "Her lover will be very angry" Sirius stated trying not to laugh.
"Well Mr. Black, before you entered Ms. Evans and I had quite a shock." Professor Dumbledore said looking over at the corner where Harry was hiding.
"What's that got to do with the kid though?" Sirius said.
"I'm trying to explain but first will you please get Madam Pomfrey, Remus, James, Professor McGonagall, and several cups of tea with coffee cake." Professor Dumbledore asked. "Actually I have some tea and cookies left over."
"Yes sir," said Sirius saluting in a very siriusly-like manner and trudging outside.
"Now Harry, Would you like some tea and crumpets?" the Professor asked.
Okay. I actually kind liked that chapter. More action and finding out about stuff coming up so review! I posted this chapter up the same day as the first so the third should be up by Tuesday at the latest.
