Chapter 26
Finally they confronted the man who had done all that to them.
"Hello Peter" said James. He had longed for this moment, the day he would get his revenge.
Peter had never been so scared in his entire life and really well who could blame him. A father was facing him and that father that was fuming. Peter had tried to kill James his wife and children. James was needless to say not a happy bunny.
"James it's a miracle, you're alive!" he tried to fool hid frienbd fear alive in his water eyes.
"Don't you DARE!" James roared slamming him against the wall. "You tried to kill us!"
"I never meant to!" the pathetic man whimpered.
"How can you not mean to kill an entire family?" James roared in his face.
"You valued your flesh over a family, a good family who were loyal to you!" Sirius boomed out un able to control his anger.
"You sold me out!" James said.
"I can not believe we were going to ask our kids to call you "Uncle Peter"!" Lily said crying her whole body shaking. "My babies Peter! My babies. They were innocent!"
"I'm sorry!" he whimpered. But now it was Remus's turn to have a go at Peter.
"Sorry, I'm sorry. What good is sorry?" said Remus. "Sorry won't bring back the magic memory's we should of been there for, Ellouise's first words, The first time she walked, the first time Harry rode a broom! We have missed so many things we that we should have had! Things that we owed to the kids!"
"I had to he would have killed me!" Peter told his former friends.
"Good, for what you did you don't deserve life!" Lily said.
"Did you honestly think if we did get to you after what you did, we honestly wouldn't kill you?" said James in anger. "As lily said they are my babies, you will not get away with this!"
"What do you think? We do it together lads!" James grinned.
"Yeah!" said Sirius. "Ready Remus?"
"More than my old friend!"
"Please Ron, wasn't I a good pet a good rat?" Peter begged, pleaded for his life.
"If you make better pet than a rat that is nothing to be proud of!" said Ron with a hate filled voice.
"Please kind sweet girl!" said Peter. "Help me!"
"NO, not after what you did," said Hermione. Then Peter made the ultimate mistake.
"Ellouise, help me!"
"DON'T YOU DARE ASK HER FOR HELP!" James roared hitting him to the floor. "YOU ARE THE REASON SHE NEVER KNEW HER PARENT'S! YOU'RE THE REASON SHE NEVER KNEW WHERE HER TRUE HOME WAS?" how dare he speak to his daughter.
"I had to I swear Elle please I'm you're uncle!"
"No you're the reason I fell in love with my uncle and now my father is the reason I have falling out of love with him. James showed me the truth," she said Vernon's face spinning in her mind. She would miss him but James he was her dad. "You don't deserve help!"
"ON three."
"One," counted Lily.
"Two," Sirius grinned.
"Thr-"
"NO!" said Harry his heart racing. Please don't hate me for saying this he thought.
"Why Harry? Why should I take pity on this man-this thing," asked James was this. "After what he did to you, your mother, your sister! MY FAMILY!"
"Because if we're caught here tonight you guys all four of you will be off to Azkaban and me and Elle back to the Dursleys and I know that now we are back together, and we all know the truth, I know we all just want one thing: to be together. Don't let him take you away from me again, please-please don't let him do it again, dad." Harry begged.
"The Dementors can have him!" Elle helped her brother. "If any one deserves the kiss it's him."
"NO!" whimpered Peter making James sure that his kids were wise beyond even his years.
"You're right. He's destroyed us once before. He wont do it again. Lets go home kids," he said smiling at his kids while there god fathers beamed and there mother cried.
"Ok!" said Harry enthusiastic about finally beginning able to let him self think about lily and James tucking him in at night.
"A little help if were leaving?" asked Ron.
"Sure me and Harry will carry you!" said Sirius. "If you will accept a mass murderers help."
"Well," said Ron smiling, making the marauders laugh.
Elle was smiling in his company and it brought joy to his heart he once believed he might never feel again.
"I'm sorry for not visiting you lately, I've missed you sir," she said honestly.
"Call me uncle moony child," he said opening his arms ready to embrace his child. His god child. "Lord I've missed you darling!"
She walk freely in to his arms and a warm feeling flooded her heart not quite as strong as it had been with James but it was there.
Soon they were making there way down the passage. Sirius told them how much he liked being a dog but he hated the fleas but James still suggested he make the change permanent.
Remus walked proudly by his god child and on her other side her mother who slung her arm around Elle's shoulder.
"I can feel it; we are going to be fine from now on. All we need is each other darling, the four of us. And of course a few friends," she said proudly.
"I hope so," said Elle happily. Lily, her idol had come back to her. They were going to be mum and daughter. They would have the relationship her and Petunia never achieved. They were going to do all the normal things like hang out and go swimming and shopping. She was getting her dream.
"It's beautiful," she heard Sirius comment as the six of them stood in front of Hogwarts. It shone more wonderfully than ever before; life seemed better with her true family surrounding her.
"Yeah it is," she agreed.
Hermione had Pettigrew and wand point and Ron lay on a rock hurt but they didn't matter now. The marauders back together again.
"I remember the first time I walked through those doors. It'll be nice to do it again as a free man with my family by my side," he declared.
"Yeah then we'll go back to the den!" said James.
"The Den?" asked Ellouise.
"The Marauders Den," said Sirius, "if only things had been different sweetheart you would have been raised there."
"Are you serious?"
"Yes, and he's James and he's Remus," he laughed softly. "But yes sweetheart you would have been raised at the den. We had all planned."
"You can move in to your rooms when we get back if you like." said Lily. "I did yours Elle and James did Harry's."
"It's a Quidditch themed room," James told his son proudly.
"Cool!" Harry beamed.
"Come on lets get going, enough talking!" said Sirius. "The stars there beautiful!" he added afterwards. He didn't know why but that were especially tonight
"Just like Lily!" said James.
"Oh god!" said Remus turning round. "Not now!"
Elle looked to see the full moon shining down on them.
A/N: mahwa hahahahahahaha. :) You know what I'm like with my cliffys. Sorry this chapters a little short. The next should be a bit longer hopefully.
Amy: following her heart I think. Fred and her felt something as soon as they clasped eyes on each other and Ellouise isn't one to not following something through just because other people think it might be wrong for her we know that from her going to Hogwarts. Thanks for reviewing!
DrunkenBuddie: not to well I don't think. They should re enter the story with in three chapters.
TabbyMinerva: I think what happened was when they spoke (Lily and James) her heart gave her a t5hud. She always knew she was there kid since the funeral and if Harry trusts them why shouldn't she. I guess she's just a bit reckless sometimes isn't she? She follows her heart.
Dursley vs Potter at the latest chapter 29 I just want Elle to bond with the guys before we see her with the people who raised her again.
Yes more Remus is ahead I assure you!
Dante Lewis: when I thought of "Kind of like lily" I had to put it in! It's a classic line or moment that would make James's entry remembered. I do want comedy in there in the right doses.
Do much is going through Elle's head. She is confused her self. She is just twelve and maybe for that moment when she told them Vernon and petunia were her mum and dad she just wanted them to come and get her, but they didn't and she found her self and she finally did what the sorting hat told her to do. She was her self. But we have to remember deep down she is just a little girl trying to grow up and god know's we all find that a challenge and a half!
Yeah Remus held her. Sorry was that moment to chessy or not, I think that was a key moment reviewers I hope I got it right!
I didn't want Snape there, making him faint was the best thing all round me is thinking! (Throw him a sock) please!
I hope you have a good time with everyone and I'll try and get a special chapter out on the twentieth as a present for you!
Taeniaea: thank you!
Thanks you for reviewing people! As ever please do it again!
