After reading the headline, Sirius dropped the newspaper to the floor in complete and utter shock. He was free!

He did not stop the tears from cascading down his cheeks, he did not care who saw him this emotional at this moment. It had taken fifteen years. FIFTEEN YEARS but he was finally free.

Sirius grabbed James and Lily in a hug and sobbed. His tears were of Happiness and overall shock. He could finally step outside his front door freely; it meant the world to him.

It seemed that everyone had those happy tears strolling there faces, at this moment.

"so how did you do it?" Sirius asked when his tears had subsided and were replaced by long-since-been-seen twinkling eyes and a grin that had been missing in action for too long.

As James launched into his story of what he had done, Harry moved towards the fallen, forgotten newspaper. He stepped away from the scene momentarily and sat in the corner by himself. He turned to the front page and read.

SIRIUS BLACK INNOCENT, POTTERS ALIVE!

Yesterday afternoon, the minister of magic was visited by Albus Dumbledore (current headmaster of Hogwarts). Accompanying the Headmaster was none other than James Potter.

Lily and James Potter were not at Godric's Hollow when there son, Harry Potter defeated You-Know-Who for the first time. They had in fact been kidnapped earlier that day, and held in You-know-who's lair, until they were able to escape.

When they had returned to their previous home of godrics hollow nothing was left the house was gone. It then would seem that misconception and the misinterpretation of neighbor-ladies words had the Potter's believing that their son was dead.

The left the wizarding world that night and resumed their lives elsewhere. In the time span of fifteen years they have raised two more children, twins: Isabelle and Brandon.

They recently returned to our world, and discovered the truth about their first son, Harry.

Along with the lie of James and lily being dead, came another lie. This being the false charges brought against Sirius Black. It was presumed fifteen years ago that Sirius Black was in fact the secret keeper of the potters, and therefore also their betrayer.

But through recent word of James Potter, and the confirmation of veriteserum it has come to the ministry's attention that Sirius black was in fact not the secret keeper, but Peter Pettigrew ( James' other school friend) was.

Peter betrayed the Potters that tragic night fifteen years ago, readers should be warned that Pettigrew is a death eater, and is currently being hunted for by the ministry.

Black has been dropped of all charges, and will be given full compensation for his innocent years spent in Azkaban Prison.

Unfortunately James Potter was unable to comment any further on the events, but we hope to receive more news soon.

Harry could not believe it, not the newspaper bit, just the fact that for once everything was going the way he wanted it to. His parents were back, Sirius was free, now all he needed was to defeat the dark lord, couldn't be to difficult could it?

"Hard to believe isn't it?" Brandon said as he walked up to Harry with Isabelle at his side.

Harry just nodded, still completely amazed by his new revelation, and he also just did not know what to say to his brother and sister.

"To think we have known each other for about a week but it still is so unreal" Isabelle said, trying to get the awkward silence put down and keep up the conversation with her brothers.

"It maybe unreal but I am glad that I found my family again," Harry said looking meaningfully at his siblings.

They both smiled glad to hear that their brother did not hate them, and that he was glad that he had found them and his parents once again.

James and lily scoped the kitchen, looking for their children there was something that they needed to tell them. Something that would hopefully bring them closer; well that was the plan at least.

It was then that they saw them standing in the corner, all three of them. They were talking and smiling, it was something that they had hoped to see happen. They looked at each other and grinned, they were finally becoming a family once again.

They took each other's hand and walked over to their children.

Brandon, Isabelle, and Harry were just discussing quidditch like they were old mates, when they spotted their parents walking over to them.

They quickly turned their attention to their parents.

"Hey guys, listen we wanted to discuss something with you," James started.

The three nodded their heads, using such body language to tell them to continue.

"Well your father and I thought that we need some time as a family to well… get reconnected, and get to know each other," Lily spoke.

The three were on the edge of their seats now, 'what were they talking about'.

"So we thought it would be cool if we went to the beach for the week, just us potter," James finished.

They waited for a response from their children.

"YES!" Isabelle and Brandon cried, as they jumped from their seats to hug their parents. The two always loved going to the beach.

Harry sat in his seat and spoke, "Is it safe to go?"

He did not want to endanger his family. He knew that Voldemort was after him, he knew the prophecy. While he knew his parents knew of the prophecy he had a feeling that they had either forgotten or chosen not to think of it. But he was not sure if his brother and sister knew it, and he was not about to ask them.

His parents seemed to understand that he was scared for his family's safety more then his own.

"We have spoken with Dumbledore and he eventually agreed that we all need this. He assured us that he would have the area well protected and that it would be as safe as possible." James said, hoping that the answer was enough to satisfy Harry.

It seemed it was as he to went to go hug his parents. He was overjoyed he had never been to the beach before or seen any other body of water other than the black lake. Not to mention that he would get to spend the entire week with his parents and siblings, something he had yet to do. He could not wait.

"So when do we leave?" Isabelle asked, she to could not wait for another potter vacation, they were always so much fun and carefree.

"Well we will be leaving tomorrow, but we have to make a pit stop I have somebody who I have had yet to visit and have been intending to…" Lily said darkly, yet she had a smile plastered on her face.

Whether it was one of mischief, happiness, wickedness or all three, they could not tell but all they knew was that tomorrow would probably prove to be quite an interesting day.

A.N. so it was a bit short but the next chapter we shall meet the visitors and the potters will start their vacation. Depending on what I feel like the vacation will probably last three chapters, unless I get bored of it or something.

I know it seems that the story is dragging too slowly, but I have just got a beta, pontas metallika (probably spelt wrong) and when some of the chapters are proof read I plan on joining the short ones together so that there are more to each chapter. Because I just kind of realized that I am at chapter thirty one now and they still have not gotten to school yet.

Just to let you know this chapter has not yet been beta'd as I just wanted to get it out since I promised it would be out last week, sorry I had a portrait to draw that was due, sooner then I thought and me being a procrastinator of the worse kind had yet to get it done, but I did so I am back to writing my guts off at every possible moment.

So just tell me what you think, who do you think the visitors are?

Cheers
