Chapter 5
The rest of the day went pretty much ok. By dinner, however, everyone had heard about the 6th years potions incident. Kris was starting to get a little annoyed by all the younger kids coming up to her and asking thinks like 'Did he really threaten to poison your pumpkin juice if you didn't shut up?' Snape just added fuel to the fire when he came up to her during dinner, telling her that she was serving her first detention at nine o'clock that night.
"We'll study tonight and tell you everything during breakfast tomorrow," Drake said after he left. "Hermione's even offered to help us." She nodded her thanks.
"Don't forget that Dumbledore wants to see us after dinner also," she reminded them. "Does anyone have any idea why?"
"Surely you know why Kris," someone said behind her. She turned around to see Draco and Blaise. "I thought you were psychic." The playful smile on his lips told her that he was just kidding.
"Of course I do, but it would be unfair to spoil the surprise for the others, wouldn't you think?" Draco shook his head and laughed. "Come on you guys, let's go see what Professor Dumbledore has to say." Harry, Kris, Drake, and Lin got up and went to Dumbledore's office. He was waiting outside for them.
"Come on in." They followed him up to the office and sat down waiting for him to start. "Drake, Kris, Lin, I've found your fathers." The trio looked at each other with complete surprise. They were not expecting this. "Hang on, that's not the most surprising part. Bear with me, for this is a long story. Drake, Kris, it is true that your mother died giving birth to you, and Lin, it is true that your mother died giving birth to your brother one year after you were born. We'll start with Lin. Lin, your father's name was Alan Shakefield. I knew him well. He was a spy for the light."
"A spy?" Lin asked.
"Yes a spy. He was a deatheater who gave us inside information on Voldemort's plans." Lin nodded. "One of the plans he found out was that Voldemort was going to go to the Potter residence to kill Harry. Problem was, you were staying with them at the time so Alan got very worried and went to the Potter's house forgetting to come to me with the information first. Early on, he and Harry's father had made four portkeys that would send you four to an orphanage with a note explaining everything if you were ever in danger. He was able to send you, Drake, and Kris, but was killed by a deatheater before he was able to reach Harry."
"Wait, Kris and I were there too?" Drake asked. Dumbledore nodded.
"How did we come to be there?" Kris asked. Then something suddenly dawned on her. "Are you telling us what I think you're telling us?"
"One year before Harry was born, James Potter had a 'summer fling' with your mother and as a result you two were born. When James found out that your mother had died, he and Lily took you two in to raise themselves. So that's it. James Potter is your father, making Harry your half- brother." Harry looked up at the sound of his name. All the time Dumbledore was talking, Harry was trying to take it all in. But he was confused about one thing. "I know what your thinking, Harry, and the answer is no. Your father did not cheat on your mother. The two broke up at the end of their 7th year, thinking it only to be a school romance. After summer ended, when they met up again when applying for jobs as aurors, they realized it wasn't just a juvenile thing and got back together. They got married a year later and I believe you wee the result of their honeymoon." Harry blushed deeply and looked from Drake to Kris.
"So they're my brother and sister?" he asked. Kris had a feeling he just wanted to change the subject.
"Yes they are. How do you feel about that?"
"I've never had a family before," he replied so quietly, the others hardly even heard him. Kris got up quickly and jumped in his lap, embracing him.
"Now you've got us," she said. Harry smiled widely and looked like he was about to cry. Kris got off of his lap and sat in the chair beside him. "I'm still confused about something."
"What's that, Miss Potter?"
"Why didn't anyone try to contact us to tell us we were magical?"
"Well, Alan was never authorized to use the portkeys so he ministry never knew he had them. Therefore when they couldn't find the three of you, they assumed you were dead."
"Oh, ok."
"Now, you four need to get back to your common room. I'm sure Mr. Weasley and Miss Granger are waiting up for you."
"You mean three," Kris said sourly. "I've got."
"Don't worry about detention, Kris," Dumbledore interrupted. "You have a lot to think about. I'll talk to Severus and you can start detention tomorrow." Kris smiled gratefully and left with the others to head to Gryffindor Tower. On the way back, they ran into (who else?) Draco and Blaise.
"Hey it's Potter and the new Gryffindor trio," Draco said.
"Hi Draco, hi Blaise," Kris said laughing.
"Hi Kris," they both replied.
"What are you doing out here, Malfoy?" Harry asked.
"Going on a walk. Is that a crime?"
"It is at this time of night." Draco couldn't think of a comeback, seeing as this was true, so he turned to Kris instead.
"Do you have a minute?" Drake, Lin, and Harry looked at Kris.
"You guys go on ahead, I'll meet you in the common room."
"Careful with Filch," Harry told her. She nodded. They walked past Draco, continuing to the tower. Kris turned to Draco to see what he wanted, but he was busy watching the other three walk away. But at a closer look, she saw that he wasn't really watching all three of them, he was watching Harry and he had a wistful look on his face. Suddenly she understood.
"You like him." Draco turned around so fast, you could literally hear his neck crack.
"I don't know what you're talking about," he said quickly, alarm showing on his face.
"Don't lie to me. I saw that look on your face as you watched him walk away. You like him. You like Harry." She could hear Blaise snickering behind his hand. "See, even Blaise could tell." Draco shot him a death glare and he shut up quickly.
"So, what if I do?"
"There's nothing wrong with that. Actually, I think it's quite sweet." Draco blushed, which made Kris giggle. "So, what is it that you wanted to talk to me about?" Draco looked relieved at the change of subject.
"Slytherin is having a party on Friday and we wanted you to come." Kris thought for a moment.
"What time does it end?"
"Whenever you leave," Blaise answered.
"OK, I can probably make it after detention."
"Great, well, we'll give you the password during Potions on Friday.
"Ok, see you tomorrow." Draco and Blaise turned and walked towards the dungeons while Kris walked towards the tower.
"What did they want?" Harry asked when she got in the common room.
"Oh Draco told me he was madly in love with you and wanted me to find out if you liked him back." Draco blanched at her words.
"Seriously?" he asked. Kris laughed wanting so badly to say yes but didn't.
"No they just invited me to a party." Harry let out a breath of relief.
"Come on Kris." Drake said. "We're gonna study with Harry, Ron, and Hermione." Kris walked over and sat beside Drake.
"OK," Hermione started. "We're going to play this year by year, starting with 1st year." They studied as much as they could in the next few hours. Around two o'clock in the morning, when they studied what seemed like the entire 1st year, in reality only being a fourth of it, they decided to call it quits and went to bed.
A/N: I hope you guys liked this chapter more than I did. Sorry it took so long to update. I'm having a little writer's block problem. I know where I want the story to go, I just don't know how to put it into words. Hopefully there will be more action in the later chapters now that I've gotten intros and explaining done. At least I think it's done.
