I am so sorry for all the people who liked this story when I first wrote this I know I haven't updated in over a year I've been very busy put it this way I'm getting a metal rod stuck in my back very soon. I think you can understand.
I'm not sure if anyone who first read this is still going to be reading this but I always find it polite to reply to reviewers because they take the time to review.
Ago Spero- I'm glad you liked the idea I was worried about posting it since so much of the first chapter was from the book but I wanted to do a time travel story for ages and reading that chapter again in the book just opened the opportunity for me.
Naomi-Jayne- I really hope you enjoy this chapter.
Jake- Aww thank you my grammar is my worst bit and say I don't have any grammatical errors is really good to hear for me. I didn't mean to sound like one of the authors who holds chapters for ransom I really hate it when people do that as well. I'm not sure how far through the year he was but it was after Christmas I know that much I'm just not sure how far. I'm assuming he knows enough to get him through the exams with at least a pass. And about the mission I have no idea I've completely forgotten it.
Pandas rule the world- Thank you for saying I'm a good writer that really means a lot to me I'm quite conscious about my writing and for people to say I'm good means a lot to me. You will get to find out what happens to Jess.
Hazel Maraa- I'm so sorry for not updating and I'm glad you enjoyed it.
ShaZazL- I'm glad you loved it so sorry for not updating.
DDwelling- So sorry for not updating.
Sirius black and remy- So, so, so, so, so sorry for not updating I'm really glad you liked it.

As they approached the great hall Harry saw James shoot a smile at Lily who scowled back she apparently hadn't forgiven him for the incident with Snape earlier. James looked at her a bit disappointed as she turned back to her conversation with a girl Harry hadn't met yet.
Remus made a beeline for the unknown girl and pulled her out of the conversation with Lily. They talked in whispers for a few seconds and the girl seemed annoyed with Remus, Harry was very curious to know what they were talking about.
Sirius looked over to see what Harry was doing and walked over, "They've been like that for a few days you know won't tell us whats going on we think it must be pretty serious Moony seems pretty worried about something."
Harry looked at him, "Moony?" He asked pretending not to know about the nicknames.
"Just a little nickname we gave him to fit in with his "furry little problem" as James would call it."
Harry almost burst out laughing at this description but decided not to as he figured it would pretty much give the game away. Instead he asked, "Who is she?"
Sirius replied, "Alison Bell, or Ali as everyone knows her as. She's in Gryffindor too her and Moony have been dating for a year or so now. Never seen them fight like this before though." He said frowning.
"How long have you and Jess been together?" Asked Harry curious for information about the aunt he never knew.
"About three months." Answered Sirius after thinking for a few seconds.
Harry nodded, "Does James fancy Lily?"
Sirius let out his bark like laugh, "Asking if James fancies Lily is like asking does a stag have antlers, James has fancied Lily since the moment he met her she just won't give him a chance seems to think he's arrogant and immature for some reason."
Harry had to refrain himself from laughing at the stag reference knowing that Sirius would get suspicious. He was about to ask another question just as Professor McGonagall's voice called out, "iris Black."
Sirius shot him a quick smile "Better go then." He said "Good luck with yours."
Harry shot him a nervous smile back now extremely worried if he was going under the surname Dursley here surely his name would be called very soon.
He saw Lily heading over to him and tried to hide his excitement at speaking to his mother for the first time ever, When she reached him Lily stuck out her hand in a very professional manner, "You must be Harry." She said.
Harry nodded in response, "Yeah, how did you know?"
Lily jerked her head towards Jess who now seemed to be in a heated argument with James, "She told me, you look an awful lot like Potter you know." She said more as a statement.
Harry nodded, "I noticed."
Lily frowned, "Its actually quite remarkable," She noted moving around the back of him to look at him from behind "Your hair even sticks up like his at the back, although not as much but I suppose you don't ruffle it up every five seconds because you think it looks cool." She said rolling her eyes.
Harry laughed, "No I actually wish it would stay flat just once."
Lily smiled at him, "You know for looking so like him you seem so little like him in personality. You seem… nicer." She said for lack of a better word.
Harry smiled at her sheepishly, "You really don't like him do you?" He asked.
Lily sighed, "Not really, no. I suppose you saw the incident down by the lake earlier?" She questioned and Harry nodded in response. "Well, its just that they really seem to hate Sniv… Snape, she corrected herself. I mean I don't like him much either but they always seem to pick on him and quite frankly I have no idea why. James tells me its because he is so sick of the word "mudblood" being thrown around like it is used casually in everyday conversation but every other Slytherin uses it as well and he doesn't attack them every time he sees them." She finished frowning in James direction.
Harry nodded, "Why do you stick up for him though? He insulted you."
"Quite frankly I have no idea." Lily replied, " The way James and Sirius treat him is atrocious and Remus just sits back and lets it happen I feel bad for him I suppose."
Harry nodded absorbing the information.
"Wasn't that your name they called?" Asked Lily.
"What? No they called Harry D… That's me isn't it?" He asked.
Lily laughed, "Bit forgetful aren't you?"
"Harry smiled sheepishly at her, "I better go good luck."
Lily smiled back at him, "You too."

When Harry emerged from the exam and made his way back to the common room he found Sirius sitting there muttering to himself. Harry decided to not alert Sirius to his presence and sneaked up to the dorm.
Harry smiled upon entering. One bed, James', he assumed had quidditch gear slung over it and was just generally untidy. One had dungbombs and other assorted pranking gear all over it, this he assumed was Sirius'. One was really neat and tidy everything was really organised and had a few books lying on the cover, this he assumed was Remus'. The next one he spotted had its covers flung on the floor and the sheets were all messy Harry assumed the person who owned this bed had been searching for something, he knew this must have been Peter's. Then he spotted one which had a trunk at the bottom and nothing else he hurried over knowing it must be his and opened the trunk.
He dug down into the bottom until he pulled out a small package wrapped messily in brown paper. It was the package Sirius had given him last time they met saying that if Harry ever needed to contact him he should use this. Harry guessed this was as good a time as any.
Harry unwrapped the package and found a mirror, confused for a moment he found the note that also came with it, which said.
This is a two-way mirror. I've got the other one of the pair. If you need to speak to me, just say my name into it; and you'll appear in my mirror and I'll be able to talk in yours. James and I used to use them when we were in separate detentions.
Harry smiled at the thought of Sirius and his dad getting around the teachers by using the mirrors. The teachers wouldn't think anything of them, it was so simple, the teachers would probably just think they were vain.
Harry held the mirror up to his face and whispered "Sirius." Not wanting anyone downstairs to hear him.
A face appeared on the mirror it was Sirius but it was the 15 year old Sirius who was sitting downstairs right at this moment. Harry set the mirror face down not really sure of how to turn it of. He didn't want Sirius to get suspicious.
He heard Sirius say, "Prongs?" A couple of times before giving up figuring he was imagining things.
Harry breathed a sigh of relief. He was hoping he could contact the Sirius from his time who could give him advice and tell him what to do but apparently the mirror didn't work if the two people were in different times.
Harry heard footsteps on the stairs and hastily hid the mirror in the trunk. Sirius popped his head around the door.
"I didn't see you come in." He stated.
"You were muttering to yourself I didn't want to disturb you." Harry grinned at him.
Sirius looked shocked, "I do not! Mutter to myself." He said pretending to look offended.
Harry laughed and Sirius remarked, "You are so like James I swear you two could be brothers."
Harry smiled nervously every time someone mentioned how alike he was to James it made him nervous. "You're about the tenth person to say that to me today."
Sirius nodded, "I'm surprised it hasn't been more, though everyone's revising for exams I suppose they haven't really noticed you. They probably just think you're James." Sirius looked into Harry's eyes for a moment. "I swear you look exactly like James with Lily's eyes its uncanny."
Butterflies appeared in Harry's stomach as he started to worry about Sirius guessing the truth.
Sirius shook his head as though to clear it, "Come on the rest will be back soon."
Harry nodded and followed his godfather downstairs.
