Chapter two.
Claudia smiled. She waved her hand in the air and they were suddenly away from the inn. They were in a colourful street with pumpkins and Halloween decorations. Harry looked at the smiling Claudia and found that they were dim and in black and white.
Children ran over the road and knocked on the door. Claudia's attention was directed to the door. Harry looked that way and saw the man opening the door. James Potter!
"Oh yes, one thing, Harry. They can't see you or feel you; you can walk through walls and practically anything because you actually aren't anything." Darien informed him. Claudia stepped to the door and the older guys followed her.
James gave the children come candy and waved them off. Harry stood right in front of his father before the door closed again.
"We'll have to get more candy, James. There are more children in this street than we had anticipated" Lilly Potter could be heard from inside. Harry glanced at Claudia once before entering the room. It was warm, with a fire burning and dinner ready to be eaten. Lilly had just come from the kitchen with baby Harry on her hip.
"Yeah but it's getting late I don't think anymore will come. Is dinner ready?" James asked.
"Yes, come on through!"
They sat down for dinner and Harry couldn't tear his eyes away from his parents. He watched the whole night. After dinner they painted faces and took picture. Harry couldn't help but laugh at the cute picture.
Lilly and baby Harry was painted as mice and James was the cat. Harry remembered the picture from his album. After that Lilly bathed the baby while James did the dishes.
Lilly was putting the baby to bed when Claudia drew Harry's attention to the outside. The lord Voldamort was climbing off his broom and readying himself to enter the Potter's residence.
"What if Voldamort never killed my parents?" Harry quickly asked. Claudia looked at Darien and shook her head. Darien nodded sternly and Claudia gave in. she swayed her left hand and mumbled some words. Nothing spectacular happened so Harry wondered if any thing had changed. Claudia looked angry but she motioned to the door and Harry went downstairs. Claudia and Darien followed.
When there was a knock at the door, James obediently opened it.
"My Lord!" James exclaimed and opened the door wider.
Voldamort walked in and shook James's hand.
"Oh, we don't have to be so formal. We are friends, aren't we?" Voldamort asked.
"Of course" James replied and hugged the man. Harry couldn't believe what he was hearing or seeing.
Harry's heart began to pound and he thought it was audible. He glanced around as the two men started to talk about evil plans. The discussion turned to Lilly and baby Harry, when James decided to take Voldamort up to the baby's room. Voldamort walked right through Harry as they went up the stairs. When they entered the hallway, Harry followed them. he was angry and wanted to kill Voldamort. Lilly elegantly greeted the dark lord and invited him and her husband into the baby's room. Harry tried to hit Voldamort but his hand went right through.
"Harry…" Claudia started but Harry interrupted.
"They wouldn't! Why are you doing this?"
"It is what you asked!" she said gently with a bit of sadness in her voice and eyes.
"No, I asked what would happen if he didn't kill them. This isn't it. I just wanted them to live!"
"This IS what would have happened Harry, watch and learn!" Claudia pointed to the Potters and Voldamort.
"What a beautiful baby you have!" Voldamort exclaimed.
"Thank you master." Lilly replied.
"A beautiful baby who would work wonders for me in the future!"
"We'd be glad to offer him to you, my lord!" James said.
"Good, that is exactly what I want to hear. I do believe our arrangement will be one of the very best." Voldamort said.
"I am glad." Lilly said as she escorted the gentlemen out of the baby's room.
"No! Stop it!" Harry cried and looked at Claudia and Darien. Claudia was looking toward Darien for guidance and he nodded in agreement.
With another wave of her hand, the whole place disappeared like smoke. They where back in the Inn and it seemed like no time had passed at all. Harry felt sick and fell into a chair behind him. Claudia watched him intently with a look of regret in her eyes.
Darien talked silently to Claudia as Harry got back to his senses. A moment later, Darien walked to the front door and left.
"Where did Darien go?" Harry asked the girl.
"He has other business at the present. He will possibly return in a while." She said and sat down beside him.
"You don't have to worry so much," she giggled and took Harry's hand in hers. Her skin was soft to the touch and she was very gentle like – almost fragile.
"Is there another time you would like to go to?" she asked. Harry thought for a moment…
"The day after…I mean, the first of November. The early hours – when Dumbledor, McGonigal and Hagrid took me to the Dursleys."
"At the house you where left at, right?"
"Yes, the Dursley's home, in street." Harry confirmed.
"Okay, lets go!" and with a wave of her hand the smoke rose again and they switched scenery.
A/N: That's all I have for now! Sorry if it's short, sorry if it's long. But I do hope you enjoyed it. It seems kind of a good conspiracy – I hope – and to those who read it, please review on it. So anyway, TTFN(Ta Ta For Now) and till next week. Have a great time!
