Sorry, got to add the disclaimer, I feel bad about forgetting it. You all know the deal, I don't own these characters, except for Jimmy, Wallace and Pondex. So, with that said - ENJOY!

Sirius' second memory was of Dumbledore. A long conversation between himself and the Headmaster of Hogwarts, about Lily and James

"Sirius, it's time we discuss them." Dumbledore said slowly.

They were in a large room, filled with pictures and small tables with many objects scattered all over them. Dumbledore was sitting behind a desk, and Sirius sat across from him, looking him directly in the eye. Presumably, this was Dumbledore's office.

Sirius stared at the Headmaster blankly. "They" didn't mean a whole lot to him. There was many more than one "They" in his life. "Who, Dumbledore, who do you mean?"

"Lily and James, my boy."

"Are they really in that much danger, Dumbledore?"

"Yes, Sirius. Voldemort... Well, he has reason to believe their son is a danger to him."

"Harry? My Godson? He's only a baby, only a year old! What reason does he have to think that Harry's a danger to him?"

"Do you know what lays in the bowels of Department of Mysteries?" Dumbledore answered Sirius's question with one of his own.

"Not really, I know there's lots of things going on there though."

"There is a section, Sirius, that holds only Prophecies."

Sirius stared at Dumbledore, dumfounded. "...You mean like... A glimpse into the future?"

"Something like that, yes. There is one prophecy that... Could pertain to young Harry."

Again, all Sirius could do was stare. "Could? That doesn't mean that it will."

"Ah, Sirius no, but it's the risk. Lily and James, well... The prophecy isn't very clear, but it's clear enough that Harry could be the one it's about." Dumbledore explained.

"But it's not about him for sure? It could be about someone else, right?"

"Of course it could be, but, Sirius, listen to me. You know what Voldemort is like. Don't you think it would be best if they tried to protect their son?"

Sirius stood up, angrily, but he wasn't sure why. Dumbledore only had the best interest of the Potter's in his heart. "James if my best friend, Albus!" He finally roared.

"I know, Sirius! Which is why I thought you would understand most of all! But you obviously don't get what I'm trying to ask you! Sit down and listen to me." Dumbledore refuted.

Sirius did as he was told, but he did so grudgingly. 'Fine." He snapped at the Headmaster.

Some of the portraits on the wall looked rather appalled at Sirius' anger, but none of them said anything. They merely looked around at each other, some frantically trying to catch Dumbledore's eyes. But Dumbledore's eyes were staring straight into Sirius, and weren't noticing the portraits on the wall.

"Sirius, they came to me, asking me what to do. I told them to go into hiding, to pick a Secret Keeper." Dumbledore finally said.

"No! James won't back down from Him! James isn't afraid! He... won't... go... into... hiding." Sirius stammered through gritted teeth.

"Yes, he will. They're making preparations already. He's not the same as he was in school, Sirius. Not as reckless, and not near as uncaring. He has Harry now. He wants to live, and Lily, and Harry. He's going to take them into hiding. There's nothing you can say which will change his mind."

Sirius stared blankly at the wall behind Dumbledore's head, reflecting what he heard just heard. Wasn't the same person he was in school? Not as reckless, not as uncaring? James had always been caring.

Finally, Sirius looked into Dumbledore's eyes. "Who, then, is going to be their Secret Keeper?"

"Well, I thought that was obvious."

"...Me?" Sirius muttered.

"You said it yourself; he's your best friend. Would you not die to protect him? Would you not stop time to see young Harry, your Godson, safe? Would you not take on this simple task so long as it meant that they would be alive at the end of it all?" Dumbledore questioned harshly.

Sirius though, before answering. "I would." He said quietly.

"Therefore Sirius, you must be their Secret Keeper.

Sirius looked around his cell, reflecting on his most recent memory, calculating what he now knew. James Potter and his wife Lily had gone to Dumbledore for help. Dumbledore suggested using Sirius as their Secret Keeper.

Sirius didn't remember what a Secret Keeper was, but he only hoped he quickly would. It might explain so much more.

Then, the Potters had been going into hiding from, who had Dumbledore said? ...Voldemort? Yes that was the name. Sirius muttered to himself. As soon as he said Voldemort, his body gave an involuntary shiver, and he wasn't sure why.

What else had he learned? That he had a Godson, and a best friend. He would have done everything to ensure their safety. But... Did I? Or did I let something happen to them? I just want to remember!

Hmm, I like how it's going. Sorry for such a stint without updates, I've been busy with school. Now, on to my readers...
AMG: Alright, you can be a faithful reader, it does sound better. Thanks for pointing out the spelling/grammer mistakes, I'll get around to fixing them eventually. Very good job on guessing who it was corerctly :) And yes, we do actually see another Maraurder flashback, but it's not for a while. Thanks again!
Sword and Magic: Don't worry, he'll remember... Eventually. Thanks for saying I'm doing really well, I always love a fan.
mmelbear: I haven't read yours yet, but I do plan to! Oh, way into, very nice! And no, not everyone says to update soon, but it does give me more incentive to do so when people do!

And, before I go, I'd like to ask a question for you readers to answer: How long do you think I should make this?
