CHAPTER 17

It wasn't early and seeing that they, Sirius, Remus and James had spent the day at the edge of their seat, all three of them were exhausted. James gave a rang to Marcus and Richard to tell them that he is fine and then to Amy to tell her of his staying over at a friends house.

That night, lying on the couch and floor, Remus and Sirius told James of the magical world, their past and Voldemort while carefully avoiding talking about Harry.

Excited that their friend has been found, both Remus and Sirius forgot about informing Professor Dumbledore of their find. Coincidentally, that morning, Professor Dumbledore decided to drop by and see how they were doing.

Lighting the fire in his office, Albus Dumbledore called upon Remus's house and popped his head into the fire. As it was still early morning, everyone in Remus's house was still asleep. As the fire cackle and Albus's head appeared in the house's fireplace, James, who was nearest to the fireplace opened his eyes, stretched and yawned.

Upon seeing Dumbledore, he waved an arm and greeted him.

'Morning, Professor.'

'Morning James. Is Remus here?'

'Remus… Oh Remus, it was real!' Sitting up in shock, James knocked the side table and the glasses on it dropped and broke.'

A groggy Remus sighed.

'Sirius, not again, that's like the third glass this month.'

'Huh?'

'Moony… Padfoot… they are really here.' James mumbled to himself.

Albus looked back and forth. He blinked his eyes once… then twice… and still, his vision stayed the same. Taking off his glasses, wiping it with his robe, he put them on and looked again. Still, the scene in front of him was the same.

Shocked, he pulled his head out of the fireplace and stepped into it. Shouting out' Lupin's Lair' he tumbled out of the fireplace and stared in surprise.

'Remus… Remus… this… this… how…?'

Remus coming to his senses, exclaimed

'Professor…'

Seeing James, he cursed.

'Damn! I forgot telling him.'

In a calm, pleasant and partially monotonous voice, Remus replied.

'Umm… hello Professor, we found James.'

Two brilliant blue eyes stared back at him, not blinking.

Sirius, who had woken up and found James sitting on the couch opposite him, barely registered what was going on around him. Only when James gave an awkward cough did both Sirius and Professor Dumbledore snapped out of their daze.

Finally noticing Professor Dumbledore, Sirius called out casually,

'Hello, Professor. Nice of you to stop by.'

It was then; Professor Dumbledore shocked all three of them. He walked over to James and pulled him into a hug. Sirius and Remus stood and stare while James gave him an awkward hug back.

The hug didn't last as Professor Dumbledore realized where he stood. Letting James go, he went back to his headmaster role.

'Any of you care to explain this?'

With that, Remus and Sirius told about their little adventure.

Time passed quickly as the story was told. Towards the end, Dumbledore asked James how he had lived for the pass fourteen to fifteen years. James then told of how he was found, how he was healed, what he studied, what he did now and at the later part about his being newly wed.

'I met a girl sometime ago named Amy and seeing that we had a lot in common, we got married. Speaking of that…'

Sirius, remembering his earlier anger, turned to James and asked him curtly,

'How can you break your promise, your promise to both Lily and I?'

This was when Remus realized what Sirius's anger yesterday was about.

'He doesn't remember, Sirius.'

'But…'

Albus looked at them thoughtfully and that was when a thought occurred to him.

'JAMES!!! Tell me, how long ago were you married? Exactly how long?'

Thinking of his wife, James got all dreamy,

'Not that long. We just came back from our honeymoon. That.'

'JAMES!!! EXACTLY HOW LONG?'

Shocked, James replied him quickly.

'Exactly eight… no, nine days counting today.'

Dumbledore stood up abruptly.

'What time? James, What time?'

'The wedding started at ten.'

'We have to go, GO now.'

Remus and Sirius were shocked to see Albus's frantic. He was never one to panic.

'Professor… what … where?'

'James and Lily signed a wizard wedding oath.'

Remus and Sirius stood up instantly.

'You mean…'

'Yes.'

'What's that?'

In their distress, everyone ignored James.

'But we'll never make it. We don't even know who witnessed the pact.' Remus mentioned.

'I did.'

'But professor, the artifacts, they will be in Harry's vault in Gringotts. It'll take forever for clearance.'

'What is happening?'

Nobody heard him.

For once, among all of them there, Sirius was the calm one. He wasn't overly fond of James's new wife seeing that she made him forget Lily but for his best friend's sake, he knew they had to calm down to get things done.

'Okay calm down… I said calm down. It is ten minutes to ten, so we will have to apparate there. The artifacts… they are the most important, yet hardest to get…'

Albus cut in quickly.

'I'll get them.'

'Okay, we'll bring James here to his wife.'

'WAIT A MINUTE!!! WHAT'S GOING ON?'

'Professor, go! I'll explain it to him.'

With that, Albus Dumbledore apparated away.

James, having heard that all this commotion bears relations to his wife was in frenzy.

'Guys, what's happening? Why are you all panicking? What does this have to do with Amy?'

'It's called the Wizard Wedding Oath, James. I didn't even know you guys did it. No ones done it for ages. At the very least three hundred years, James. Until now that is.' Remus replied.

'So, what's wrong with that?'

'That oath is sacred. You've broken it by marrying another woman and I don't know how to say it but…but…'

Sirius cut in quietly,

'If we don't get the artifact soon and get to her, Amy will suffer.'

'Why Amy, not me?'

'Because it hurts more for a person to watch a loved one suffer.'

By now, James was walking on hot coal.

'What can we do? What? How soon will the pain start?'

'From now, we have five more minutes. You've got to bring us to your wife, James. We have to go now.'

'We can't get there in five. My place is at least thirty minutes from here. I don't even have my car.' James snapped frustratedly.

'Our mode of transportation is different, James.'

'Come on, James. Just trust us. Hold on to both our hands and imagine your wife. We don't know if she's home or not, so we'll have to go to wherever she is.'

'Yeah, remember, no background. Just her.'

James felt stupid doing something like that but he's witnessed enough weird things to trust these two friends of his.

With a crack, all three of them disappeared.

'AAAAHHHHHH!!!!!'

James, having imagined his pretty wife faces, ended up bringing his friends to land right in front of her.

'Henry, when did you come in? I didn't hear you. How did you appear right in front of me?'

Looking at him skeptically, she asked

'You're not up to one of your tricks, are you?

It seems James hasn't lost his hobby in pranking.

James, worrying for her, forgot about his two friends and launched himself to check on her thoroughly.

'Are you okay? Do you feel uncomfortable? Do you hurt anywhere? Let's go put you in bed.'

Amy, ever the polite one noticed Remus and Sirius standing behind James with an awkward and bemused expression.

'Umm… Henry, introductions.'

James turned around and stood beside Amy to make the introduction when he saw his friends expressions turned from awkwardness to surprise, shock, bewilderment and glee.

'Guys… this is my wife Amy, Amy this is Remus and Sirius and they've found me. They knew me before I lost my memory.'

'Oh Henry, I'm so glad for you'

'Yeah, I found out so many wonderful things but… but… you… you are going to get hurt Amy.'

Sirius seeing that James was still with Lily or as she is called now, Amy, decided to console his friend. He was glad he wasn't wrong to trust James with Lily.

'James, I wouldn't worry about that right now.'

'But she deserves to know the truth, there's barely a minute left and I'll be damn if she suffers without knowing why.'

'It won't happen, James.' Remus told him calmly.

'What's wrong?' Amy asked curiously.

'Come on James, sit down. Nothing will happen.'

'But back at your house, you said…'

'Forget what I said, James.'

'But…'

'That was before we met her James.'

'What do you mean?'

'Here, James. Look at this.' Sirius looked up, after spending the last minute rummaging into his pocket.

'This, is a picture of you and your wife before we lost you.'

Seeing the picture, both James and Amy drew a sharp breath.

James, seeing words at the corner of the picture, read it out loud.

'James and Lily, forever and ever.'

Amy, turning to Remus and Sirius asked quietly,

'You mean, we…we were married… before.'

Both Sirius and Remus nodded their head.

'Lily… Lily's my name?'

'Yes.'

'Henry… or James was my husband.'

'That will be correct.'

At that, Lily stood there with her mouth gaping.

Sirius, very amused that his best friends actually got married again, sighed and muttered.

'Who would have thought? All those times James claimed Lily was the only one for him actually came true.'

Just then, Albus popped into the house all flustered.

'Took me ages to get these. Is she all right? She shouldn't be in that much pain yet? It's just been a few minutes.'

Lily who was already gaping like a fish couldn't even scream when Albus popped in right in front of her again. Only this time, his back was facing her.

'Professor, the artifacts will not be needed it seems.'

'What?'

'Turn around, Professor.'

Turning around, Albus stumbled a few steps back, his eyes growing wide.

'Lily…'

Seeing James was enough of a shock in itself, but seeing that James had again married Lily Evans, that was unbelievable.

'Amazing… Unbelievable…'

NEXT TWO CHAPTERS: YEAH!!! James now knows that he has a family.

Lily knows too.

Finally… this is getting a little long to write.

I'm tired. But knowing you guys are reading, I won't let you down.

I hope to get a few reviews for this. GOOD or BAD.
