Author's Note: I'm sorry I haven't updated recently. We've been painting my room, shopping for furniture, and totally redoing my room and I haven't had time to even type anything before now, because my computer was disconnected because of the paint on the wall. Here's another chapter!

Chapter Queries: (Compliments of athenakitty) are they going to help Sirius? Will there be more children? If so, will there be twins? Triplets? Why were the Dementors after Fudgie?

Review Responses:

Tropic: Thanks. I don't think he's able to make a Patronus either. I'm probably going to get him kicked out of office soon... Thanks. I like my cliffies.

Kangaroo: Why thank you! Thanks, I'm glad I'm an exception! I'll update as much as I can! He's okay... or will be at least...Lol. Agreed. Happiness forever! Thanks. I like my evilness. It's unique. I know exactly what bad things are in Fudge's mind....*evil laugh* Thanks. I'm updating now.

Mikee: Thank you so very much for every comment and compliment! Dursely's.... visit... I think those two words are next to each other in another chapter in the future. And I see Sirius along with Lily and Severus and Remus.

Arch-Nemesis: Thank you! You're on my list now! Sirius will eventually get better.

Lilinfields: Thank you! Hali will get her in time and out time! Mother/daughter bondings will be in here, as well as father/son and godfather/son bonding. Father/daughter and mother/son are in here too. Bondings, that is.

Athenakitty: Thanks. I love you're queries! I changed them just a little bit. I'm not sure if there should be more children... but they WILL help Sirius. As for the Dementors after Fudge, That was just because he tried to be brave but had bad memories. He was being stupid, to out it simply.

Princess Pearliest: Thank you x a bunches! Again, there will be enough time between each character and Harry! Thank you for the insights! I love it when people tell me what I'm doing right and wrong! Thanks again and I'm updating now!

MarsMoonStar: Thanks!

)()()()()()()()()(LAST TIME)(()()()()()()()()( They got outside and apparated to the gates to Hogwarts.

They had Sirius back, Harry, Lily, and Hali. Things were going great!

Or so they thought. ()()()()()()(NOW()))()()()()()()

Severus ran to the Hospital Wing with Sirius in his arms as fast as he could. Albus had Fudge floating behind him as he tried to stay beside Severus and Sirius.

#I'll run ahead and get Pomfrey. # Moony offered as he ran ahead.

#All right. Thank you. # Severus thought back.

#No need to thank me. I'm as worried as you. #

#Okay. Tell her to get two beds ready and get Dreamless Sleep, Pepper Up, Chocolate, and Skele-Mend ready beside one, Pepper Up, Dreamless Sleep, and Chocolate beside the other.# Severus thought, making a list of possible injuries and other things Sirius would have or need.

#Okay. # Moony assured. #He'll be all right, Sev. I know it. Sirius won't let anything get him down. #

#I hope so...# Severus thought, taking a better look at Sirius than he did before. The man looked pretty bad. His whole body was pale, almost grey. His head lolled around as Severus ran. His hair was really long, down to his lower back and he was muddy and his body was caked with blood here and there. His body was skin and bone, as if he hadn't gotten a good meal in years. #which is probably true# Severus mused. Sirius' hair was greasy and matted. His robes were torn and could barely be called robes. More like rags. Sirius reeked and really needed a good bath or shower.

Severus reached the door and saw Madam Pomfrey just finishing putting vials of potions on tables beside beds. She rushed over and pushed Severus to one of the beds and told him to put Sirius on the bed.

"You need to get in a bed yourself. Honestly, going to Azkaban? Why on Earth did you go there!?" she fussed. She pressed a bar of chocolate in Severus' hand and pushed him lightly to the side and started to wave her wand over Sirius' unconscious body. "Enervate" she whispered.

Sirius' eyes fluttered open and Severus said a spell to make the lights dim a little and Sirius looked around.

"Felaw? Moony?" He croaked.

"Yes, Padfoot. You're going to be O.K. We've gotten Peter." Severus said.

"Severus, Remus, go on to the beds over there. Let me tend to this patient. Why did you ask for me to get two beds ready?" Poppy said, pouring the potions for Sirius down his throat.

"Fudge." Remus muttered.

The doors to the Hospital Wing burst open and Dumbledore walked in with Fudge floating behind him. He looked happy as he floated the Minister to the bed beside Sirius and walked over to Severus, taking the chocolate Poppy offered to him with a smile.

"I see." Poppy said. She took Fudge's vitals and poured Dreamless Sleep, Pepper-Up, and hot chocolate down his throat and decided he was O.K. for now.

"Who is this?" Poppy asked with a weary look at Sirius.

"Sirius Black convicted wrongly of murdering Peter Pettigrew and 13 muggles as well as betraying Lily Snape and James Potter. We've gotten the real murderer here." Albus said, pulling a rat out of his pocket.

"That's a rat, Albus. Come here." Poppy said, pulling on Albus' arm and putting a hand on his forehead.

"Poppy, I'm fine. Peter's an Animagus." Albus said, chuckling.

"Oh, really?" Poppy said with a stern look at Severus and Remus.

"Yes. Not by himself, though." Albus said with a thoughtful look.

The rat started to move slightly in Albus' strong clasp.

"Why doesn't he stay still?" Severus asked, going to Poppy's cabinet and taking a jar out.

"Stupefy." Remus said, pointing his wand at Peter and making the rat still.

"Put him in here." Severus suggested, putting the jar under Pettigrew.

Albus dropped the rat with a **thunk** in the jar and Severus twisted the lid on the it.

"That should keep him in there for now. If he tries any funny stuff then he'll be squished." Severus said with a smirk.

"Severus, have you told Lily about our luck?" Albus asked.

"No... I don't think I have, sir." Severus said. "I'll just tell her right now, shall I?"

"I think you should. Don't worry; I think Sirius will be asleep for a while yet." Remus said.

"Agreed." Albus said with his eyes twinkling.

"I'll be back later." Severus said.

"Of course. Bye." Albus said.

"Bye." Severus said, walking out the Hospital doors and turning into Felaw before running down the halls with glee. He had his family, his best friends, and was happier than anytime in his life. He remembered the day he and Lily married.

**Flashback**

"It's so hot. Are you sure it's supposed to be this hot?" Severus asked his three best men, James Potter, Sirius Black and Remus Lupin. He couldn't pick who would be the 'Best' man, so he had all three be his best men.

"Sev, it's your nerves. Yes, it's supposed to be hot... at least I think so." Remus said.

"Okay... I'm not nervous... I'm not nervous... I'm not nervous. I'm not nervous, okay?" Severus babbled.

"Okay, bud. You're not nervous." Sirius laughed, hitting Severus on the back.

James laughed. "Okay. If you say so, Sev."

"One more run through, Felaw..." Remus said.

"I think that may be good... yes... that will be good." Severus said. He was sweating by now.

"Yes. I do not think his brain has filed all this important information. I do think that another run through would help those other ten or so run throughs stay in there." Sirius commented, patting Severus' head. He was standing on a chair, trying to touch the high ceiling.

"You'll take a drink of Polyjuice Potion and go out as James Potter. Since Albus is the priest, then he'll know it's you but he'll say you're James. When they ask you to sign the papers, you'll sign Severus Snape on one of the papers, James Potter on the other. They want to make it as if Lily is marrying James, but she's actually marrying you. I've had Lily charm it to work longer than one hour. Sound like a good plan?" Remus asked.

Severus swallowed and nodded.

Remus pulled one of James' hairs and put it in a cup of goop. It turned blue and he gave it to Severus. "Drink up." he said.

Severus drank the whole cup without tasting it and handed it back to Remus. His body started to bubble and he slowly turned into an image of James.

Remus then pulled one of Severus' hairs and put it in another cup of goop which turned pink and he gave it to James. "Ewe!" James exclaimed. "Smells like you, Sev!"

Severus just looked at James and turned back to the door, looking out.

Remus, James, Sirius, and he walked out into the quickly filling chapel. That day, Lily Evans would be, to the four men, Lily Snape. To the rest of the world, she would be Lily Potter.

Lily came out of the door on the end of the isle, and she took Severus' breath away.

She was in a beautiful white dress that clung to her upper body, but at the hips it swayed out into a ball gown type of dress. Her hair was down to her waist in waves and a green vine wreathe was in her hair. She held a bouquet of lilies and roses and she had light makeup on.

Severus couldn't hear Albus when he was speaking, but he just looked at Lily.

"James Potter, do you take Lily Evans, to be your lawfully wedded wife, to have and to hold, to cherish and love, till Death do you part?" Albus asked, shaking Severus out of his reverie.

"I do." Severus said.

Albus asked the same question to Lily (Changing Lily Evans, wife, and James Potter part. To Lily, Albus whispered Severus Snape after he said James Potter, faking a breath).

"I do." Lily said, with tears in her eyes.

!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!??!?!?!?!End Flashback!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!

Felaw turned back into Severus at the portrait hole and opened it and heard laughter.

When he looked in, he saw no one and he walked to the laughter and he leaned against the doorway with a smile silently when he saw the sight before him.

Lily was on the floor, on her back to be precise, and Hali and Harry had Lily pinned down (They were sitting on her stomach), tickling her sides and neck.

"Please-Stop-Harry-and-Hali-Mummy-Is-Out-Of-Breath!" Lily said in between laughs.

Severus quietly sidled up behind Hali and Harry and picked them up, one child under each arm.

"Now, Now. Mummy isn't supposed to be the one being tickled, kids!" Severus scolded lightly. "It's supposed to be Daddy and Mummy tickling Hali and Harry." Severus said, putting Hali and Harry on the bed and letting Lily start to tickle Hali while Severus tickled Harry.

Both kids started to laugh and kick their legs at their parents, trying to ward them off. After a few moments, Severus swooped Harry into his arms and sat on the bed. Harry tried to catch his breath and leaned against his dad.

"So, Sev, how did it go?" Lily asked, holding Hali in her arms and sitting beside Severus.

"We got Peter, of course. We also went and got Sirius from Azkaban." Severus informed his wife.

"Dad?" Harry asked, tugging gently on Severus' robes.

"Yes, son?" Severus asked, looking down at his son.

"What's Akabamy?" Harry asked.

"It's a prisom." Hali said quickly.

Harry pouted.

"What's wrong, Harry?" Lily asked softly.

"I don't know what a prisom is either." Harry said, crossing his arms.

"It's a place that the Ministry of Magic puts bad people. We had to take Papa Paddy out of it because he wasn't bad." Severus explained.

"Oh. Okay." Harry said, smiling.

Severus sighed. Today was really tiring.

Hali yawned, and Harry followed with one of his own.

Lily looked sleepily at Severus and Severus nodded.

"Looks like time for bed. Bath Time." Lily said, picking up Hali.

"Don't think these two should be in the same time. They may splash each other. I've got a bathtub in my bathroom. A bathroom is right next door." Severus said, picking up a half asleep Harry and quickly kissing Lily before walking out of the room.

Severus stripped Harry down and put him in a magically filled bathtub and washed him as he sat up sleepily.

Severus looked at the scars on his back and scowled. The Dursely's will get a visit from Sirius, Remus, and himself soon. Very soon.

When Severus was done, he dressed Harry in a pair of green pajama pants and a silver pajama top and picked up Harry and walked back into Harry's bedroom to find Lily tucking in a sleeping Hali in the bed.

"He's asleep." Lily observed.

"He is?" Severus asked, looking at Harry. Sure enough, Harry was breathing deeply and his eyes were closed.

Severus smiled and tucked Harry in. He kissed his and Hali's foreheads before standing beside Lily, putting his arms around her, and leading her to his room.
