Chapter 3

Sirius Black was sitting in his cell at Azkaban planning his escape. He still could not get over the fact that Jasmine kept his son secret from him. He would have to get to Surrey and find his son. Once he had his son he could go to the safe house they had set up while working for the Department of Mysteries. He couldn't believe that she actually named him what he wanted if he ever had a son.

"Get up!" Shrieked Petunia, knocking on the door. Harry jerked awake after having a pleasant dream about a laughing man with steel gray eyes.

"Coming" he mumbled. He hurriedly dressed and went down to the kitchen. He immediately got eggs, bacon, hash browns and tomatoes to frying. Just as he finished placing the food he cooked on plates, he heard the thundering footsteps of his uncle and cousin.

While they were eating, Harry cleaned up the dishes. He was getting ready to go back to his room when his Uncle Vernon spoke "Your Aunt Marge is coming, boy, in a few days. She will be here for one week. If there is any hint of your freakishness I will not let you go back to that school is that clear? You will treat her with respect."

"Yes Uncle Vernon, I understand." Harry replied before leaving the room.

As soon as his uncle and cousin left Harry took the locket downstairs to the kitchen and asked his aunt if they could talk.

"About what?" Replied Petunia.

"Do you recognize the people in this locket?" asked Harry as he handed her the locket.

Petunia was shocked. She had not seen that photo for years. The photo of her sister Jasmine.

"Where did you get this?" She asked.

"I received it last night with a letter from my mother."

"What do you mean your mother? This picture is not of Lily, it is of your Aunt Jasmine."

"I was told in the letter that Jasmine is my mother and Aunt Lily and Uncle James adopted me."

Petunia slumped down in a chair. She could not believe what she heard. Jasmine's son? Not Lily's?

"Can I see the letter?" She asked.

"I'll go get it. Did you want to see the one from Aunt Lily too?" Harry asked.

"Only if you want to show it to me" was the reply.

Jennifer Edwards just finished unpacking the last box of her belongings in her new house on Magnolia Crescent. Jennifer just moved to Little Whinging from Washington DC with her ward Sabrina Jefferson. Sabrina has been with her for8 years now. Since her mother died when she was three. She just retired from the military and got a job working as a consultant for a company that has a branch in London.

Another reason for her move to England was the fact that she was originally from England. At least that is what she assumed because of her British accent. She has no memories of life before 12 years ago.

Sirius was finally free of Azkaban. He finally made it to shore where he collapsed from exhaustion still in his animangus form. He woke up to the sounds of people coming. He shook himself and took off into the woods. He watched the men pass then staying in the woods headed south. South to Surrey. To his son.
July 29, 1993

Albus Dumbledore is pacing his office. He just received a fire call from Cornelius Fudge. Sirius Black has escaped from Azkaban. Albus keeps pacing muttering under his breath how Sirius was going to ruin everything if he got to Harry Potter. He thought he had removed Sirius from his godson's life just like he got rid of Harry's godmother Jasmine Evans.

While Harry was getting the letters he received from his parents when Hedwig got back from delivering letters to Ron and Hermione, he made sure she had some water and gave her a few treats. He had another letter to send out. Once she was done drinking and eating her treats he asked "Hedwig do you feel up to taking another letter for me?" She bobbed her head and stuck out her leg. Raven chuckled and tied the letter to her leg and told her "This goes to Griphook girl. There is no rush. You can take itlater if you want." Hedwig decided she would rather take it now and flew out the window.
While Harry was getting the letters Petunia was doing a lot of soul searching. She felt horrible about she had been treating him. She hated Lily for the way she treated Petunia when she would come back from that school. Jasmine on the other hand was always as kind as she was before she found out she was a witch.
When Harry returned to the kitchen with the letters, he handed them to his Aunt Petunia and sat down. She motioned him to sit beside her. She took the locket and pointed to the picture of his father and said "This is Sirius Black. He is accused of killing 13 people. He is in the wizard prison. Thank you for letting me read the letters."

Harry was shocked, this was the first time Aunt Petunia ever told him anything about his family, his world.

"Aunt Petunia, I need to leave tomorrow at 10am for a while. I need to go to Gringotts to listen to Mum, Aunt Lily and Uncle James wills." Said Harry.

"How will you get there?" She asked.

"The locket Mum gave me is a portkey. When I want to go to the bank I say the name of it while holding it." Harry replied.

"Alright. I will tell Vernon that Mrs. Figg has asked you to come over there to help her. Here are your letters. Now go weed the garden."
