6 months later-

Harry was lying on his bed staring at the wall. Everything just happened so quickly. Right after everyone found out that his parents were alive and Sirius was free, they all found a house and moved in. Yet, everything went downhill from there. His lessons continued and everything seemed to be going okay but everything just clicked at the end. Why did Dumbledore have to die? Why did Snape have to be his executioner? The funeral was the week before and everyone came. His mother was now eight months pregnant and was having a girl at the end of June. He and his father were helping to make the room nice and presentable. It was great having his parents back but still, he could just as easily lose them again. Remus explained to them what had happened to keep them alive to him. Just one wave of the wand and he was an orphan again. They were going to sort things out with the Dursley's in a week so everyone couldn't wait to go. More or less, they wanted to yell their brains out for how Harry was treated for the 15 years that he lived there. There was still no word on whether or not Hogwarts was going to open the following year. Then there was the beginning of the Horcrux hunt. That would take the year in itself. Harry sighed and rolled over. Too much had happened to him in his life and for once he wanted peace. Someone knocked on the door.

"Come in."

His mother was standing there.

"Harry, lunch is ready downstairs."

"Thanks Mum, I'll be right down."

She nodded and left again. Harry got up and left.


Downstairs in the kitchen were James, Sirius and Remus (who were staying for the week to help with the baby's room). Lily walked into the room just as they were talking about something.

"How was he," James asked.

"He was just lying on his bed thinking again."

The three men sighed.

"This isn't fair. First he has to be the boy-who-lived and now he has to almost completely work alone to find these horcruxes," Sirius said.

"Yeah, he never got the chance to be a regular kid at Hogwarts. It was always fight Voldemort here and fight a basilisk there and save the prisoner and save yourself. Now find the horcruxes, which are bits of a person's soul mind you, that can be anywhere in the world. Sure he might've been given some clues as to what they are, but they can be anywhere in Great Britain. They can be in Indonesia for Pete's sake," Remus said.

"Don't use the name Pete," James said.

"We should try and get as many people as we can to help out," Sirius said.

"No."

They all turned to see Harry in the doorway, pale as a ghost.

"But Harry," his father started.

"Don't but Harry me. This is something I have to do if I want to..."

"If you want to what honey," Lily asked going over to him.

"If I want to stop losing people," he said very quietly.

"Honey, you aren't going to lose anyone else," she said hugging him.

"That's right son. We're here and we aren't going anywhere anymore," James said.

Harry looked up and from the table, both Sirius and Remus nodded. No one spoke for a few minutes.

"Now why don't we get back to our lengthy discussion about naming this girl," Sirius said. Harry sat down and munched on his sandwich in thought.

"This is going to be a long year," he thought to himself.
