One day later James was sitting in his room at the Dursley's, when he found a book; it was called 'Quidditch through the Ages.' James wondered why the Dursley's had a book about quidditch; maybe a witch or a wizard lived here. He opened the cover to find a name written neatly in ink. Harry Potter.

"There's that name again, I bet he's my son." James wondered aloud

"What?" Remus asked

"Oh nothing." First there was the photo of him and Lilt, then this book. Why would James' son live with the Dursleys? That's when it hit him, he remembered the day before when they were in the alley, what Dudley had said. "The boy, your kid, you were blown up. How are you here?"

James hadn't really listened to that comment; he had been blown up? And his son was living with the Dursleys? That would mean that Lily had also been blown up. James felt like his whole world was crashing down. He had to see Dumbledore, he didn't understand.

Lily had been having a peaceful sleep until an unpleasant nightmare entered:

Lily cooed at the little baby, he was so cute; he had dark messy hair, it was almost black; and he had beautiful emerald eyes, just like Lily's. The child started to laugh. She heard a male voice yell frantically

"Lily, it's him, I'll hold him off; take Harry and run!"

She grabbed her baby and her wand but before she knew it, there was another man in the room, he had a dark cloak on and a hood covered his head.

"Please, leave my baby, kill me instead. Please!" she begged him,

He pulled out a wand and looked at her, he laughed a small, evil laugh and then hissed those two lethal words. " Avada Kedavra"

Lily saw a blinding green light and then screamed Harry's name before all she saw was darkness; Lily knew she was dead.

She sat up, her heart pounding, she was drenched in sweat, she didn't feel as good as she had earlier that morning, she didn't want to go to sleep, and she hated feeling all yucky and sweaty. She wanted a shower, but Jen wasn't there, and Sirius wasn't there. She looked at her alarm clock; it was 1:27am. She turned on the lights and tiptoed into the bathroom. She turned on the shower and stepped in.

Lily had just finished washing her hair, she got out of the shower, put her clothes on, she started having a coughing fit; she felt blood come up as she coughed. She felt very dizzy and faint. Lily collapsed, right there on the bathroom floor

"James, what brings you to my office today? Genika told me you were leaving tomorrow."

"I'm not. I need you to explain something to me."

"Yes, it depends what it is." Dumbledore said cautiously

"I have figured out that I have a son named Harry, and I think Lily is his mother. But Dudley Dursley said I had been blown up."

"Ah, yes. I was hoping this wouldn't happen. But I think you have the right to know. 17 years ago, you had a son named Harry. He was a very special boy, there was a prophecy, and basically it said that when Voldemort returned, Harry was the Chosen one, who was destined to kill him. Neither can live while the other survives. Voldemort thought that he could take the easy road out. So when Harry was one year old, he came to Godric's Hollow, and he." Dumbledore paused, James realised what he was about to say and he finished the sentence for him.

"He killed me and Lily." He was in shock. "What about Harry? He lived right?"

"Yes, he escaped, with nothing but a lightning bolt scar. He went to live with the Dursleys, and that is where he has been every year until he was eleven, then he came to Hogwarts and only went back there for the holidays. But James, I have had doubts about the way they have treated him over the years. Your son is a remarkable young man."

James sat in silence for a while, no one spoke, Dumbledores phoenix let out the occasional squawk.

"Can I see him?" he said weakly, Dumbledore nodded.

"Come with me."

They walked along a corridor, until they reached the long winding staircase that led down to the dungeons. "Wait here James." Dumbledore walked into the room and then came back out, with a familiar person.

"Snape." James hissed,

"Potter?" Snape asked in shock

"Yes, that's right. I'm back from the dead." James said

"James used a time turner to come here for special purposes Severus. He would like to speak to his son." Dumbledore explained

"Very well." Snape said coldly and walked back down into the dungeons.
