A/N: I know this chapter isn't very long, and I'm sorry! But I had to end it where I did, this one is not so much of a cliffhanger, but I have come to my decision for the vote! Lol! Here are the aprox. Results…
People for slash of S/H: 22
People not for slash: 75
People who didn't care: 14
Lol! So I guess its not slash. And for all of you who wanted slash, I may write another different story with Drool worthy harry and Sirius! But this story will just be Sirius/harry godfather godson bonding, and don't forget James! And Remus… and lily…. and I think you get the jest! Lol! So keep reading my friends and I hope you're happy with this decision. I'm glad I got so many opinions on the matter and I'm not at all offended that some of you didn't want slash. So thank you for telling me you're wonderful ideas, opinions, and what you think about this story! It drives me to update! So don't fear, and updates here! And without further ado…
Disclaimer: I do not own anything, which sucks immensely
Chapter 13: Possessed
Pain,
Surreal pain, is what James felt as he saw his own son, convulsing on the floor, with his eyes to the back of his head, and words coming out of his mouth that were not of his own…
"Kill me now Dumbledore…"Coldness, it seemed to flood James like a river…
"If death is nothing Dumbledore, kill the boy…"Harry continued to convulse and shiver on the floor, his eyes were still, as far as James could see, rolled to the back of his head…the image made the group sick.
"Harry…Hang in there…" James cast a look at the sad Sirius, and felt a pang in his heart as well. Frank was looking rather put out as well, but nothing was compared surprisingly to Dumbledore, His usually twinkling eyes, were dimmed to the point of dead; the intense look giving off an air of power. A newfound respect was found for him right that instant, as James saw how much Dumbledore actually seemed to care for his child.
Harry finally seemed to stop convulsing to their relief. His eyes rolled back, and James was glad to see the brilliant green shining back at him instead of the possessive red…
"Are you alright, Harry?"
Harry looked up at the aparation Dumbledore hesitantly as if he had other things on his mind (James was sure he did) "…professor?"
"Yes?"
Harry looked around apprehensively "is. Is he gone?"
The group looked around as if on cue, and noticed disdainfully that Bellatrix had managed to get away in the process as well.
Dumbledore was about to answer when a group of aparation aurors and Fudge had appeared in the hall.
"My Lord…" Fudge muttered. "Is…was…was it really him?"
"Yes!" squeaked the house elf (who James assumed warned him of the whole incident, ironically) which was tugging on his sleeve "me is seeing him with me own eyes!" as if to emphasize the point the elf pointed to her eyes.
Fudge looked disconcerted for a moment "right…" The aurors around him had their wands raised, and another auror was jumping frantically up and down.
" I saw him too Fudge!" he shrieked, "He was over there! And he grabbed that Bellatrix lady when he left!"
"I know I know!" Fudge huffed "I saw him too!" as if weary his rubbed his balding head.
Dumbledore seemed to make this the right time to be recognized from the shadows. "If you proceed down to the department of mysteries Cornelius" the minister to James amusement jumped so high off the ground his slippers left his feet "you will be glad to find a group of suppressed death eaters, bound by an anti-aparation jinx, waiting for you're approval as what to do with them"
"Dumbledore!" he gasped finally. James wasn't sure if it was healthy to have you're eyes that far out of you're head. "You-here-I-I," he seemed to almost want to shout 'seize him!' to their amusement.
"Cornelius, I'm willing to fight you're men and win again!" he said in a thunderous voice. Fudge flinched, and so did James. "You have seen with you're very eyes, that what I have been telling you for the past year was true, and Voldemort really is back" he took another threatening step forward. Both groups visibly cringed at his name, and James had to resist rolling his eyes. A quick glance at Harry, who was still hidden in the shadows, told him the same annoyance was present. "but you have insisted on chasing after the wrong man for 12 months! Its about time you listened to sense!"
Fudge was standing looking like a totally blubbering idiot in James eyes now, and Sirius to by the looks of it.
"I-don't-well," he blustered, a slight pink crept up on the whitish face. "Very well!" he yelped, as soon as he saw nobody coming to his rescue "Dawlish! Williamson! Go down and see, …Dumbledore, you-you will need to tell me- the fountain of Magical Brethan-what happened?" he whimpered all this as he looked at the wreck the once magnificent fountain was in.
"I shall explain all this" Dumbledore said "When Harry is back at Hogwarts"
James didn't know it was possible, but obviously it was, as Fudge's eyes went even further out of his head at the mention of Harry. He reeled around to Face the shadowed Harry.
"Harry-Harry Potter?"
His eyes goggled "he-here?" he said in disbelief "why-what's all this about?"
"I shall explain everything," Dumbledore repeated, "When Harry is back at school"
Sirius snorted. "Ha-ha, stupid fudge, probably couldn't navigate his hand up his arse if he tried, not to mention staying calm, I mean, did you see how much his eyes bulged?"
Moody cast him a critical eye " Should I even bother?"
James shook his head "its useless, I've tried"
Sirius frowned suspiciously "what are you too gibbering about?"
James smiled innocently and Sirius' frown deepened "you're not trying to figure out how my brain works again are you?"
Moody rolled his eyes "of course not, that would be a waste of precious time."
"Good" Sirius suddenly looked a little confused as if trying to figure something out "because I've tried… but its pointless"
"So we've heard," Frank said rubbing his tired temple in annoyance. James laughed.
"Now –shut up!" moody suddenly roared. "This could be important. He turned his back on them to continue watching the scene, and missed Sirius tongue sticking out.
Dumbledore, ignoring Fudge's insistent blubbering, turned his back on him and towards the exhausted looking Harry who was leaning against the wall still.
"Here, Harry, take this" he picked up a piece of one of the broken statues off the floor and handed it to Harry. "Portus" the portkey glowed blue for a moment before slowly turning back to normal. Harry didn't really seem to be with it as he placed his hand on the portkey, three seconds later with a tired blink, he was off to who knows where.
The scene slowly whirled and disappeared before them. Everything seemed to soon resolve too normal as the space before them held no more visions.
"Well…that was certainly interesting" Frank inquired wirily.
Moody quirked a brow "interesting would be and understatement Longbottom"
"Ahem"
The group turned to face a very grave looking Dumbledore "I believe we have some things to do right at the moment gentlemen"
Shame faced aurors and order members cast there eyes downwards. "Sorry"
"That's quite alright, but arguing right now is not going to get us anywhere" he looked pointedly at Longbottom "I think a report to the minister is in order, as well as the department of Magical reversal squad"
A look at their confused faces was all Frank and the rest of the order members needed before the rest of the group was obliviated.
"Obliviate"
Flashes of white soared this way and that as the order resumed correcting the others memories.
When they were done, they were left with a group of confused looking aurors, which Dumbledore directed on their way
"I believe there was an immediate call to Fudges office, something about an attack in muggle London"
The aurors still held confused faces, but went their own ways non-the less as if nothing happened.
James had to stuff his hand in his mouth to stop himself from laughing. Dumbledore always knew how to keep something secret, even if it had to be accomplished by obliviating people.
"I believe that was the best way to deal with that situation" he declared to the amused faces of the order "Alas, I did not think it good if everyone found out about this, non-the-less the future"
Nods of agreement met these words, but Sirius held a pensieve face all the same. James couldn't manage to catch his eyes.
"I think some things are in order" he looked directly at Moody, Frank, and shacklebolt. "I would like you too report to Fudge's office and wipe his memory of this incident, I would also like you to pull code blue I believe it is, and make sure anybody who was in this premises around the aparations has been wiped."
The 3 nodded and proceeded on their way as Dumbledore rounded on the other 2.
"I believe we will be having a chat in my office very soon" he cast the forlorn Sirius a apologetic look "I shall be there in about half-hour, and James" he looked pointedly at James. "Please make sure Lily can be present as well, this may concern her too"
James nodded his understanding and watched the stressed Dumbledore head towards the lift. Sirius made no comment that he had heard what Dumbledore said but turned around and left towards the floo.
James sighed heavily and rubbed his eyes. This was beginning to look like a very long day indeed. After reupholstering his wand he also took some floo.
"Hogwarts, Headmasters Office!"
