Chapter 2
Harry struggled back a gasp. 'OH MY GOD! This is so not real. I must be dreaming.' He picked up his hand and slapped himself to make sure it hurt. It did, he hit himself so hard he gave himself a bloody lip.
"Oh my God." Harry said. What he didn't see was Sirius smiling, proud of himself for doing a good job.
"Can I... Can I hold their hands?" he asked Sirius softly not looking at him, but still looking at the unconscious forms of his parents.
"Of course you can Harry do don't have to ask."
Harry stumbled forward and little by little reached his hand out to his mother. He hand was warm and full of life.
"Have they been awake yet?"
"No, no I don't think so."
Harry turned back to his mother and grasped her hand softly.
"Wake up for me mum. Please. Wake up." Harry whispered softly squeezing her hand harder. Not noticing the glow around their intertwined hands. Lily Marie Evens Potter shot up so fast she knocked Harry back onto Sirius' bed.
"Harry!" She screamed.
Harry groaned. "Ouch." He whispered trying to get his breath back.
"Lily?" Sirius asked shakily.
Lily whipped around and saw Sirius staring at her while a black haired boy clutched his stomach not noticing anything around him.
"Jesus bloody Christ. What in the Hell was that?" Harry moaned.
He pushed himself off the bed and straightened his clothes. And looked up.
"AHHHHHHHH!" he yelled.
"Harry! Harry calm down!" Sirius covered Harry's mouth.
"Harry?" Lily whispered.
"Mum?" Harry said. He grasped the bed for support and looked his mother in the eyes.
Harry flung himself at Lily and wrapped his arms around her waist and cried for the second time that day.
"Don't leave me again mum. Don't leave me again."
Lily made calming noises and stroked her sons' hair. Trying to hide the tears falling from her eyes. 'My baby all grown up!' She thought over and over again. Finally the tears stopped as a groan came from Lily's right. She looked over and saw her husband trying to sit up.
"James!" Lily and Sirius cried together.
Sirius had now gathered enough strength to stand up. He put a hand on Harry's shoulder and made his way in between Lily and James. He sat in a chair and looked at both of them and said,
"I missed you."
"We missed you too Padfoot" James said.
"I sorry to break up this very sentimental moment but we must get back to present matters." Said a voice from the door.
Everyone turned around and looked at Dumbledore. Except James who hadn't noticed his son before. James wrapped his arms around Harry and started to pet his head murmuring things like 'my baby boy is here' or 'he never died he's right here'. Harry gripped his father's arm in return of the hug since he couldn't turn around. At last James let go of Harry but Harry stayed where he was content of his sitting place.
They all turned back to Dumbledore and Harry's face hardened immediately. This did not go unnoticed by those surrounding them. But Dumbledore pretended not to notice and turned to Sirius.
"Sirius, my boy, good to have you back."
"Good to be back Professor."
"Lily, James. It's been a long time."
"It has professor. It has." Lily conquered.
"Ah young Mr. Potter." Said Dumbledore politely.
"Headmaster." Harry acknowledged.
"Now down to business," Dumbledore stated as Harry scoffed. "A lot has gone on since both of you died. And I need to tell you about Harry's life."
"Yes, well I have lived it so if you will excuse me I need to contact my people. I will be back say in 45 minutes? Good. Bye."
"I'm Sorry Harry I can't allow you to leave."
"I am so sick of you trying to control me. I am not at school Dumbledore. I am not your personal chess pawn that has to protect your sorry ass. Just because I am The-Boy-Who-Lived and the one who has to defeat Voldemort does NOT mean you can control me. Are we clear?"
What Harry had no idea of was that he was floating about 3 inches from the ground. The whites of his eyes were blood red, and his hair had grown down to his shoulders.
"Yes Harry we are clear" Dumbledore said in a calm, clear voice.
Harry calmed down and stopped glowing though his hair still remained at his shoulders. He conjured a bandana and out of thin air and put it on pirate style. He walked out and headed for the fireplace. Harry pulled out the bag of floo powder and threw some in. "Remus Lupin!" he shouted to the fireplace.
"Remus!" He yelled into the fireplace. Remus came into view and looked at Harry startled.
"Hello Harry what can I do for you? Nice look by the way it really becomes you"
"Thanks Remus. Anyways you need to get over here NOW!"
He didn't ask any questions. He just apparated behind Harry after closing the connection.
"Ok I just need to call one more person. The Burrow!"
Mrs. Weasley's head appeared in the fireplace.
"Hello Mrs. Weasley. Listen I need you to come to St. Mungos as fast as you can. Bring the children and Mr. Weasley please."
"Alright Harry dear we will be right there." Mrs. Weasley tried to say calmly, but Harry knew she thought someone was hurt.
"Mrs. Weasley no one is hurt. It's quite good actually." Harry could tell she was relived at the news and he closed the connection.
Ten Minutes Later the Weasleys and Remus were following Harry to room 394.
"Mrs. Weasley would it be alright if I borrowed Ron and Hermione for a second?"
"Of Course dear be back soon now."
Yes ma'am. Come on guys. Remus you ready?"
"Yea Harry why?"
"Just follow me"
Harry walked to the door and opened it. He walked in and stepped aside to let the others in. Remus was the last to walk in. After him he shut the door. All Remus saw though was Sirius.
"S-si-sirius?"
"Hey Remy!"
"Oh my god, but your dead!"
Sirius got up and Remus and he embraced like brothers. Remus J. Lupin looked to the side and saw Lily and James smiling.
"Oh Wow. Harry I think I see dead people."
Harry stifled a laugh and said "Me too Rem, me too."
Remus walked up to James and hugged him tighter than Sirius. Tears started to run down his face as he turned to Lily.
"There's my Lily-flower."
"And there's my Remy-bear."
Remus picked Lily up and twirled her around.
"So how is my favorite sister huh?"
"Good…great…fantastic."
