Chapter 10: It's in your blood pt 2


"Wengudrium Leviosa."

They watched the thread go higher and higher. When they decided it was high enough not to be noticed, Harry then flew it across the Great hall and then lowered it

carefully into Snape's seat. They then quickly went off to join the other Gryffindors before the feast begun.


As the rest of the students made their way into the Great hall, Harry and Andrew waited patiently for their prank to be executed. They watched as the teachers walked in through the door and made their way over to the large table up in front. Harry kept waiting for Snape and was getting rather anxious as their potions professor was yet to arrive. He leaned over to his brother.

"Where is he?" he whispered curiously.

"Oh, I made sure I'd get him late for the feast that way all the attention could be set on him." Andrew whispered back with a small grin.

"And how did you get that right?"

"Well, remembered when I disappeared for a few minutes before everyone started arriving?" When Harry nodded he continued. "Well I stole a chair from one of the classes and barricaded Snape's classroom door with it. I know it's not going to hold for long but it should be long enough until all the students are settled in and quiet enough for the cushion to be heard."

Harry nodded his head and noticed Dumbledore standing to give his welcome back speech.

"Good evening everyone. I trust you all had a lovely Christmas vacation. Just a few announcements before we continue with the feast…"

Andrew toned Dumbledore out as he stared up and the majestic looking ceiling; it was beautiful, it was charmed to be a clear starry night, he occasionally tried looking for constellations and was happy when he found Orion's belt. He turned and looked down the table and noticed Hermione staring up at the ceiling just as he had before, he smiled to himself a little before looking down and noticing Ron staring at the silverware in front of him. 'God can he think of anything other than food?' Andrew thought to himself. Then he looked out at the other tables. The Ravenclaw's seemed to be paying attention to every word the old wizard had to say while the Hufflepuff's seemed less interested. He was about to turn and look at the Slytherin's who's table was located behind his seat before a loud bang came from the Great hall's huge doors. There stood a red faced Professor Snape, his oily hair hanging loosely around his face as he scanned the entire hall.

"Ah Severus, what a pleasure for you to join us." came Dumbledore's cheery voice.

"I apologize for my late arrival, Headmaster. But apparently some moronic child thought it funny to barricade me in my classroom." The satanic man said lazily but Andrew was happy to detect some distain in his voice.

"Kids will be kids, eh Severus?" Dumbledore chuckled. This got a few students snickering. Snape simply scowled at the white heard man before making his way over to his seat.

Harry and Andrew shared a small look before turning their attention back to Snape.

Snape had finally made it to his seat, he grabbed his chair and pulled it out a little more; everything seemed to move much slower for Harry and Andrew as they watched the potions professor move in front of his seat and made a move to sit down. Time almost froze as the two boys held their breath waiting for the inevitable.

PFFRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRT!

Everything in the room froze at that moment. Nobody moved an inch, even the portraits and ghosts stood stock still as they slowly registered what had just happened. Andrew shot Harry a grin as they watched the teacher's reactions. Snape's face had turned a bright red, Dumbledore stared wide eyed at his employer and all the other teachers simply gaped stupidly at him.

"Severus!" Professor McGonagall scolded loudly. That seemed to break everyone out of their stupor as snickers slowly broke out around the room. Snickers turned to giggles which turned to loud gales of laughter which could even be heard on the seventh floor of the magnificent castle.

Dumbledore was simply shocked and couldn't even bring himself to finish his speech as he clapped his hands and food appeared in front of the students. The laughter had only barely stopped though as one child would giggle from the memory and that caused a chain reaction to begin and before anyone knew it the entire student body could be heard giggling at the expense of their potions professor.

Andrew wiped a tear away from his eye and reached for a piece of chicken before he noticed Hermione plop down next to him.

"I cannot believe you just did that!" she whispered severely in his ear.

Andrew turned to her grinning like the Cheshire cat. "Oh don't go acting all piffy I saw you giggling as well." He teased.

Hermione blushed at his words. "Was not!"

"Were too." He retorted still grinning.

Hermione couldn't help it, no matter how hard she tried Andrew just knew how to make her smile. She shook her head and grabbed a plate before she also started setting up her supper.

Andrew watched Harry and smiled at how happy his brother was. That was until he looked up at the staff table and saw not only Professor Dumbledore but McGonagall as well raising their eyebrows at him.

'Well… this isn't going to end well.' He thought as he stared back at the two Professors. But a small grin cracked across his face when he heard Snape yelling:

"For the last time Hagrid, I did not pass any wind!"

Desert had rolled around and Andrew had just thought of a way to loosen Hermione up more before telling her about the whole Norbert thing.

"Hey Mio, why don't you have some desert?" he asked her innocently.

"Remember I told you my parents are dentists. I don't eat anything that isn't sugar free." She told him as she looked around at the other students.

"Well, your parents aren't here now are they? Indulge a little. Let your wild side out." He whispered with a small smile.

Hermione gave a small gasp. Before she could deny however, Andrew cut off a huge piece of chocolate cake and placed it on her plate. She turned to glare at the boy before she saw him giving her the puppy dog look. Hermione averted her eyes quickly, but it was futile; every time she turned to check if he stopped she saw the look and felt herself being influenced by it. With a defeated groan she finally gave in and picked up a fork. She broke a small piece of the cake off and held the fork near her mouth, she looked back to Andrew as if hoping he would change his mind but she noticed he still that blasted look. It would've been easy to shake off if his hazel eyes didn't shine perfectly in the light making him look even more innocent. She took a small breath and bit the piece of sugary substance before her eyes widened slightly and she began eating the rest of the cake more ferociously.

Andrew watched Hermione wide eyed as she destroyed the cake in front of her with a sort of animalistic hunger and watched as she reached for another piece of desert. 'Maybe this wasn't the best idea after all…' he thought regrettably.

After a few minutes Hermione was on her third piece of chocolate cake when Harry leaned in close to Andrew.

"What did you do?" he whispered in a frightened tone.

"I thought it would be a good idea." Andrew whispered back just as frightened.

They stared as Hermione dug into the cake and ate it with such speed it seemed as though her arm was nothing but a blur.

"H-Hey Mio?" Andrew asked timidly as he reached out towards her.

Hermione paused for a second; she turned to face to two boys, her eyes were wild and as she saw Andrew's hand etching towards her, she gripped her plate with the cake still on it and gave a protective growl.

Andrew quickly drew his hand back and watched on as his friend continued on her sugar rage. A short while later the deserts had disappeared and both Potter boys breathed a sigh of relief while Hermione moaned sadly. Before they could stand however they heard Dumbledore's voice.

"Prefects could you please escort the students back to their common rooms, but Professor's McGonagall and I would like to have a word with Harry and Andrew Potter in my office before they head out to their dorms please."

Harry looked at Andrew with shock in his eyes.

"Oh I didn't tell you? I think they figured out it was us." Andrew said in a small voice. Harry stared at his brother unable to speak. He didn't even move when Andrew quickly stood up and went after Hermione before she could leave.

"Hermione, wait!" the bushy haired brunette stopped at turned towards Andrew.

"HeyAndrew!Wow!Whoknewsugarcouldbethisamazing!?ImeanI'veneverhaditbeforebut,wowitisawesome!" she spoke so fast that Andrew just stared at her wide eyed before face palming and shaking his head slightly. He grabbed her by the shoulders and forced her to look at him.

"Hermione listen to me; when you get to the common room, don't go to bed, tell Ron the same thing. We've got to talk about something alright?"

"Okaycool!" she said quickly before skipping off to join the rest of the Gryffs.

"Oh dear God, I've created a monster." Andrew muttered as he watched Hermione skip away merrily. He turned to see a red faced Harry glaring at him.

Andrew nodded his head as if Harry had said something he agreed with before turning to a portrait and asking for directions to the Headmasters office. He turned back to Harry shot him his signature grin and ran away from him, heading towards the Dumbledore's office. Harry was close behind him.

"Yeah, you'd better run!"

When the two boys made it to the Gargoyle they noticed the two Professors waiting patiently for them.

"Ah, Masters Potter. Glad you could make it." Dumbledore said happily as he turned to face the stone statue against the wall.

"Pepper mint." Dumbledore said clearly. Andrew raised an eyebrow at the old man while Harry just watched curiously. Before they could react the statue moved to the side and revealed a long stairway leading towards the upper parts of the castle.

Dumbledore nodded towards Professor McGonagall and watched as she made her way up the stairs. He motioned for Harry and Andrew to follow and walked in after them.

Finally making it into the office Dumbledore closed the door behind him and made his way over towards his desk. Harry and Andrew were too busy noticing all the books and assorted objects which were lying around.

"Please, have a seat boys'." Dumbledore told them as he gestured to two chairs located in front of his desk. The brothers shared a quick glance before slowly making their way over to the chairs; they didn't fail to notice McGonagall's silence which only made them fear that the punishment was going to be severe.

"Now, do you know why we called you two in here?" Dumbledore asked, his answer was two blank stares from Harry and Andrew.

"That prank that you pulled on Professor Snape…" Dumbledore started.

"You have no proof that was us." Andrew interrupted calmly.

"Please, there's no way the Weasley boy's could've pulled that prank." McGonagall retorted.

"And you know this because…?"

"They're purebloods." She answered.

'Dammit forgot about that.' Andrew thought angrily.

"Yes, Professor we did it." Harry confessed looking downward towards his shoes.

Andrew sighed knowing that they were busted. He looked back at the two professors and couldn't help wondering why they were smiling at them fondly.

"Well since it is your first offense and seeing as it is in your blood, we won't give out any detentions. But I will deduct twenty points from each of you." McGonagall told them.

The two boys hadn't heard anything after 'it is in your blood'. Their curiosity was peeked and Dumbledore saw it immediately.

"Your fathers," Dumbledore told them before they were able to voice their questions. "They were quite the pranksters back in the day."

"Wait you mean…" Harry started.

"Our fathers went to Hogwarts?" Andrew finished.

"Well, Harry both your parents did, but not your biological parents Andrew. James Potter was part of an infamous group known as the Marauders. He and three of his friends were quite known for their antics and shenanigans. While your father Andrew; Raymond met Harry's father when they both attended the Auror academy. They became quite close friends and pulled some of the biggest pranks the academy had ever seen. If it weren't for their outstanding achievements and dedication to their work, they would have been thrown out in their first year of training." Dumbledore told the two boys.

"What of our mothers? What were their names? What did they do?" Andrew asked desperately. He noticed Dumbledore's usual twinkling eyes dim slightly.

"Well Lilly; who is Harry's mother attended the school and met her father here. Whereas Lisa; Andrew's mother, met Raymond when they were out on a Auror scout mission." Dumbledore told them again.

"What's my father's last name?" Andrew asked quietly.

"I'm afraid that is all we have time for. Come now Harry, Andrew. I'll escort you back to the common room." McGonagall said in a chipped tone. Andrew looked desperately between the two Professors but when they didn't show any sign of telling him what he wanted to know he stood up nodded to both of them respectively and walked out of the Headmasters office.

"Thank you Professor. I'd better go check on him." Harry said as he quickly followed his brother out the office.

"Oh Albus, what should we do? Harry and Andrew is still too young to handle the truth of what happened?" McGonagall asked the Headmaster.

"I do not know Minerva. They are both too young to have endured the burdens they have already faced. I just hope they will be strong enough for the road ahead of them. Andrew's cold and mysterious behavior is definitely a trait developed by his father. Why I shiver just thinking how he would've turned out if the Potters hadn't done what they did. He has a short fuse yet hides his emotions well when need be. But he does smile and that is something we must thank Harry for. He may look like James but certainly has his mother's heart. The two of them will lead the wizarding world into a new era. I just hope they don't lose track of what is important." Dumbledore said gravely.

McGonagall nodded her head slightly. But little did she know that Dumbledore had another reason for keeping a secret from the boys. She had no idea what Dumbledore knew about the Potter boys and just how much of an effect they will have on the Wizarding community as a whole.

0-oo-0-oo-0-oo-0

The two boys accompanied by their head of house made their way to the Gryffindor common room without a word uttered the entire way. Professor McGonagall watched the boys closely and noticed how close they truly were. Harry would occasionally bump Andrew with his shoulder whenever he noticed his brother getting too lost in his thoughts.

When they finally arrived the two boys went in and thanked their professor for the lack of harsh punishment they would've endured if Snape had found.

"Harry, Andrew! Blimey where were you two?" Ron asked when he spotted the two students.

"We got a… history lesson." Andrew replied in a bored tone before turning and headed towards the couches by the fire place.

Harry nodded towards Ron and motioned for him to sit down before himself. He then turned to Andrew.

"Where's Hermione?"

Andrew sat staring into the naked flames for a few seconds before his mind had fully grasped his brother's question.

"Ron, where's Hermione?" Andrew repeated to the youngest Weasley when he too noticed her absence.

"She said something about headed to the bathroom." He replied with a shrug.

At that exact moment Hermione came out of the bathroom looking slightly paler than she had earlier that evening. She also had dark circles under her eyes and her forehead looked sweaty and clammy.

"God Hermione, you look like crap." Ron blurted out, which earned him three glares. He quickly shut his mouth stared into the flames.

"Oh who am I kidding?" Hermione said when Ron had looked away. "I look like a Garden Gnome's mid-wife!" Hermione complained as she plopped herself beside Andrew who suppressed a gag at the smell Hermione had been oozing.

Hermione noticed his strained face though and quickly stood up.

"Oh come on! I brushed my teeth three times already!" she wined as she threw her arms up towards the sky.

"It's no problem… truly. I-I can withstand it. Besides we don't have time to wait for you as you refresh your… err Gnome breath." Hermione gasped at Andrew's words, she was about to storm off until Andrew grabbed her hand and pulled her down next to him. She turned to say something until she noticed his expression; completely serious.

"It's about Norbert." He told his three housemates in a low whisper. "I've figured a way to get him out of the castle."

This grabbed their attention.

"Firstly, we're gonna need to write a letter…"

Gryffindor Common Room: 11: 30 pm

Harry, Andrew and Ron waited patiently for Hermione to show up.

"Are you sure this is going to work?" Ron asked nervously.

"Well not 100% but around 79%... yeah 79% sure it'll work." Andrew replied.

Harry stood with his father's invisibility cloak clutching it tightly while Andrew sub-consciously rubbing his father's ring while going over the plan in his mind.

"Hey guys." Hermione whispered as she entered the common room.

"Right, now that we're all here are you guys ready to get this plan in action?" Andrew asked with a small grin.

"I'm not entirely sure about this Andrew… I mean, if we get caught we'll be in some serious trouble. Besides what's with addition to the plan? We should be concentrating on Norbert, nothing else." Hermione said as she pulled on some of her bushy hair in a nervous gesture.

"We won't get caught if we do this according to the plan." He replied before nodding to Harry to get the cloak ready.

Harry nodded as they huddled together and got under the cloak and made their way out of the common room which woke the Fat Lady up slightly. "What, who's there?" she muttered before nodding off to sleep again.

They hadn't had time to see if they could all fit under the cloak; thankfully they could, though it was a tight squeeze.

They had made it down to the first floor until they saw something that Andrew hadn't thought of; Peeves the Poltergeist. The four students froze in their place and waited patiently for the terrible creature to pass, but with the combined powers of the Potter curse, Peeves had decided that he wanted to hover in that area for the rest of the night.

They all hung their heads in irritation. They tried moving but Ron had accidently stepped on Hermione's toe causing her to let out a tiny yelp. 'Bloody fantastic.' Harry thought irritably.

"Who's there?!" the ghoul squeaked out as he scanned the entire area.

'Now what?!' Andrew thought desperately.

"The Bloody Baron has his own reasons for being invisible, Peeves." A deep voice boomed from the ground.

Andrew looked to Ron who shrugged and then to Harry who shook his head, the three boys' eyes widened as they turned to look at Hermione who simply raised an eyebrow at the boys.

"Oh o-of course, Master Baron Sir!" Peeves stammered as he quickly floated away from his spot. The teens breathed a sigh of relief and quickly made their way to the castle doors. When they finally got out they pulled the cloak off so they could move freely and quickly.

"Hermione, that was a brilliant impersonation of the Baron!" Harry complimented with a huge smile.

"B-But it wasn't me." Hermione responded seriously.

That froze the four elven year olds again. They all stared at each other for a moment.

"W-W-Wait y-y-you mean…?" Ron's face paled.

"T-That that was the actual Bloody Baron?" Harry's eyes widened with fear.

"Holy crap…" Andrew muttered.

"L-Language Andrew." Hermione scolded meekly.

It took a few minutes before the group decided to let it go and proceed to Hagrid's hut. They knocked twice and the door was pulled open; there stood a red faced Hagrid whose eyes looked quite moist.

"Hey you lot." He greeted weakly.

"Hey Hagrid, you doing alright?" Andrew asked when he heard the large man sniff loudly.

"Yeah, just- just not too happy abou' Norbert leaving is all." He answered as he turned to head back into the hut.

When the four students followed him they noticed a huge wooden box with Norbert lying inside eating a rather large piece of meat. They looked back at Hagrid who picked up a teddy bear and placed it in the box with the large lizard.

"…Why?" Andrew asked curiously.

"It's his teddy, he loves that toy." Hagrid said in broken sobs.

"Alright then, err Harry get the top of the box. Now then his too big to carry by hand so here's the tricky part of the plan; Hermione you're going to cast the levitation spell on the box and you and Norbert are going to be the ones under the cloak. The rest of us are just going to have to be careful." Andrew instructed.

Harry, Ron and Hermione nodded, Hermione then cast the spell and Harry threw the cloak over the two of them. They turned back to Hagrid and smiled at him before walking out the hut.

"Don't worry Hagrid." Ron told him. "Charlie will take good care of Norbert."

When the gentle giant smiled at Ron and nodded, the red head then closed the door and briskly walked up to the others. When they made it back to the large doors they all took a deep breath and made their way inside the castle.

"Now then we're going have to be quiet, and when I say quiet I mean don't even sniff." Andrew told them in a low whisper. They all nodded even though the boys couldn't see Hermione they knew she agreed with them.

"Harry, take right wing, Ron left and Hermione behind me, if you hear something behind us lightly tap my back using Norbert." When they all got into position they then made their way up towards the Astronomy tower.

The walk wasn't as bad as Andrew had first thought, whenever they saw a light headed their way the three boys would quickly get into a class room while Hermione moved to the side and the prefect would pass them by undetected. Andrew had spent the second last day of their holiday finding all the ways to the Astronomy tower and picking the route with the most classrooms was in his opinion the best option as it meant a quick escape and hiding spots.

When they arrived at the base of the tower (only having to hide twice) Hermione took the cloak off and gently put Norbert down.

"Now what?" she asked as she turned to Andrew.

"Ron, you and Harry take Hermione and head up the tower I'll stay down here." Andrew answered.

"What why?" Harry asked confused.

"Because I said so, now go!" he answered quickly.

With a sigh Harry turned to look at Hermione before reaching for his wand.

"No, Hermione is the only one who has enough practice and the concentration to carry an object as heavy and restless as Nor… Wait a minute, why hasn't he made a noise this entire time?" Andrew asked as he watched the crate.

This grabbed the other three's attention.

"True, he has been rather quiet hasn't he?" Hermione noted.

"Should we open it?" Ron asked.

"No, if his just sleeping and the sound of the lid woke him up it'll be a much harder job to put him back. I say we carry him up, Charlie and the others can check on him." Harry replied as he nodded at Hermione to proceed.

"Wengudrium Leviosa." The bushy haired witch whispered.

With a final nod Andrew watched as his brother and two friends walked up the steps headed to the top of the large tower. He checked his watch which he 'borrowed' from Dudley; 12:00 am on the dot. He smiled and quickly hid himself before he was discovered by someone.

0-oo-0-oo-0-oo-0

When Harry and the others made it to the roof they quietly set the dragon down and waited for Ron's brother.

"Why didn't Andrew come up with us?" Hermione whispered to Harry curiously.

"I have an idea that it has something to do with Charlie." Harry replied as he turned to face her. Ron was sitting on the large crate and looking around for his brother.

"I still don't understand-"

"Look, here they come." Ron stated excitedly as he pointed to five figures in the distance.

Hermione didn't get to finish her sentence as she saw the figures headed towards them as well. She glanced at Harry quickly before turning her attention back to Charlie and his friends.

When they finally arrived Charlie hopped off his broom and smiled at his brother before giving him a small hug.

"Hey there Ronny, got my dragon?" he asked happily.

"Yeah he's right here," Ron said waving his hand over to the large crate. "Oh and this is Hermione Granger and my friend Harry Potter." Ron stated with a small emphasis on 'my friend'.

Hermione blinked a bit before smiling at Charlie and shaking his hand.

"Great Merlin it really is Harry Potter." Charlie said excitedly after glancing at Harry's scarred hand. "The name's Charlie Weasley, second eldest of the Weasley children. I've got to say Mr. Potter meeting you is definitely an amazing feet."

"Nice to meet you too Charlie, I'm sorry my brother Andrew couldn't be here to meet you as well, his down stairs keeping an eye out for us." Harry told him with a smile.

"Wait you mean Andrew Potter is also attending Hogwarts?!" Charlie asked in disbelief.

"Yeah, didn't Ron tell you that?" Hermione asked innocently.

"No he did not. Why didn't you tell me both Potters were here?!" He asked with a look of betrayal.

"I must have forgotten to include it in the letter." Ron answered quietly as he looked down at his own feet.

"I've got to meet him!" Charlie stated quickly but before he could move a hand shot down from the air and grabbed his shoulder.

"Honestly Charlie, these kids have classes in the morning and we're wasting their time. Besides the fly back to Romania is long enough we've got to head back right now. Sorry Mr. Potter I wish we could meet your brother, but there really isn't any time left. The name's Mandy Blueflame. These are my partners Rock Longhall, Jason Rathfrog and Kellan McKnight. You've already met Charles who owes me big time for this by the way." Mandy said in a scary tone.

Charlie hung his head in defeat. He motioned for the others to come closer. They all attached hooks to the large crate and connected it to their brooms before mounting them and hoisting the large lizard into the air.

"Hey Ron, tell Hagrid not to worry, Norbert's going to be taken great care of." Charlie told his brother as he mounted his broom.

The five Dragon trainers then took off into the night sky with Norbert.

The three Gryffindors smiled slightly before heading down the stairs to meet up with Andrew.

"Hey, everything go according to plan?" Andrew asked when he spotted them.

"Yup now we can go." Harry told him as he gave a small yawn.

"Right, Nymmie come on out, doesn't look like we needed your help this time." Andrew called out behind him.

A figure stepped out of the shadows and Hermione took a sharp breath as she stared at their Head of House.

"P-Professor, We- we can explain." She said quickly.

"Relax Hermione it's just me." The professor's face quickly morphed at Hermione breathed a sigh of relief when she realized that it was just Tonks looking like the Professor.

"Just in case we needed a backup plan..." Andrew told her soothingly. He checked his watch and grabbed Harry's cloak. "Come on hurry up, it's almost time." He told them. When they got under the cloak, after Tonks had shrunk herself to help accommodate them more, they saw another figure quickly headed towards the Astronomy tower.

"If this letter's right that means Potter and his pets have a dragon they're about to send off to Weasley's brother. Oh this should be fun." Draco Malfoy said as he rubbed his hands together, little did he know another figure had appeared behind him.

"Well, well, well, Mr. Malfoy, I must admit I was a bit skeptical of this letter but figured I should check it out just in case. Out of bed at these hours? Honestly. Detention, and fifty house points from Slytherin house." She scolded.

It took all of their efforts not to laugh at Malfoy's shocked face. Andrew had planned for this entire thing to happen; he had sent Tonks a letter requesting her to meet him at the base of the tower at 12:00 am where he explained the reason for her being there, he had also told her to send Malfoy a letter from a 'Potter-hating Gryffindor' to get him to appear here when he did and to 'bust' the Potter's sending a dragon off with Charlie. But the icing on the cake was when he told her to write to Prof. McGonagall telling her a student planned to be out of bed because he heard a ridiculous rumor about the Potters. Andrew had planned the entire thing knowing Malfoy couldn't resist having some sort of dirt on the Potters and with his enormous ego he would have to be the one who could them; he wouldn't ever share a victory like this.

"B-but Professor I heard the Potters had a dragon they were going to pawn off to Weasley's elder brother!" Malfoy said desperately.

"Oh come now, Mr. Malfoy, just where on earth would the Potters get a dragon from any way? Even having a dragon's egg is highly illegal. Now come along to my office while I determine what your punishment shall be." The Professor told him sternly.

Deciding they'd seen enough the group quickly headed back to their common rooms. They made a quick detour to get Tonks to the Hufflepuff tower before headed back to their tower. When they entered the common room, Ron and Hermione quickly said their good nights before practically dragging their feet towards the rooms, which Harry and Andrew in the common room unable to sleep. They shared a glance and instantly knew what the other was thinking. They quickly got under the cloak again and headed out of the common room for the second time that night, and headed towards their secret place; The room with the mirror.

And that is where they were for a long period of time sitting on Harry's cloak staring at the ghostly reflections of their relatives who smiled at them lovingly.

"They look so happy, don't they?" Andrew asked quietly.

"Yeah, they do." Harry replied in a low tone.

"Ah, Harry, Andrew I was wondering when you two would show up again." Came a third voice. Both boys' eyes widened as they turned slowly and saw the smiling face of Albus Dumbledore.

"Oh…"

"…Crap."
