First of all I'd like to say OMG I'M SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO SORRY I HAVEN'T POSTED IN FOREVER! I was just waiting to get the right amount of chapter before posting. Also I'd like to add that how much I realize Chapters Six and Seven are seriously screwed up. I'll have to fix them. SOOO SORRY!
Chapter 30: Revenge of the Marauders
As Harry and Hermione sat innoccence and unaware of three men behind them. Soon they fell asleep cuddled with each other. At first James, Sirius, and Remus felt gulity for listening on their date, but they agreed that if anything too personal was said or happened they'd leave. Now they sat in the middle of the night behind the trees watching the two sleep. Hermione had her head laying on Harry's chest sleeping peacefully as they began their work.
Next morning...
"DAD! SIRIUS! REMUS!" Harry shouted, laughing. The group woke up and ran to the top of the cliff. Harry and Hermione were tied together with rope, a goop over their hands to were no magic could be issued. Their wands taken as well and their skin dyed mult-colours. They also saw the two laughing.
"You know this means war!" Hermione said.
"Uh oh." Ron said.
"Why uh oh, uh oh's are never good." Draco said.
"Hermione and Harry is a team you do not want against you." Ron said.
"Looks like we got them though." James said.
"How long should we leave them?" Sirius asked.
"You will not leave my baby boy here!" Lily said.
"Chill Lils." James said. "He's in no danger what-so-ever, photo time!" He said, pulling out a camera. Harry and Hermione just smiled wide and big with matching evil grins.
"Good luck to you both." Ginny said. "I've seen both of your work and I'm at a loss at who will win. This school year will be very interesting." She added.
"Well, it's Thursday the 21st of August at 8:00 a.m. as the war begins." Luna said, looking at her watch. Everyone laughed.
"Can we get a little help here?" Harry asked, the goop dripping from his hands.
"No!" The Marauders said. Unfortuantly Lily went forward, but walked into some type of bubble or force field. Harry tried to shake off the goop best he could and tried to heat it with magic, but it wasn't working. Hermione was trying to do the same. Harry tried to rub it off and used a bit of spit. It was working. They needed water.
"Hermione, I've got an idea. What if we moved over the cliff and into the water? The goop would come off our hands I bet." Harry whispered to her. She nodded her head and they worked together to move closer to the edge. It seemed the shield moved with them as they move towards the edge. James, Sirius, and Remus were talking to Lily. Telling her that they'd be okay. The adults weren't facing them luckily. The rest of the group however watched in amazement as these two constructed their plan and quickly and quietly fulfilled it. They moved toward the edge and braced themselves. After taking a deep breath and a quick look to their friends. Harry and Hermione tipped themselves off the edge. The couple tumbled through the air and splashed into the water with a sting.
"HARRY! HERMIONE!" The adults shouted. Bubbles came to the top of the water but stopped. The whole group rushed down to the water and watched from shore. Harry and Hermione surfaced and swam to shore.
"Clever." James said. Harry and Hermione bowed. Harry waved his hand and both were dressed in shorts and t-shirts, hair dried as well.
"Now to figure out how this multi-colour jinx comes off...hmm." Harry said, sarcastically. "Ah, yes." He ran into the tent and came back out with a orange potion. He took a sip and handed it to Hermione with a grimace on his face. She took a sip and almost dropped it.
"That's almost as bad as the Polyjuice!" Hermione said. Everyone laughed except Draco.
"Wait a second...polyjuice potion?" Draco asked. Harry, Ron, and Hermione stopped laughing. Their faces had guilty looks now.
"Well you see..." Harry said.
"No, I understand. I mean it wasn't that hard to tell the difference first of all you two were too smart to be Crabbe and Goyle. It's okay. I thought it was you anyways." Draco said.
"As long as you don't hate us." Harry said.
"Nah." Draco said. "But, where were you during that?" Draco asked Hermione.
"I accidently put cat hair instead of human hair in the potion for me. I ended up in the hospital wing." Hermione said, looking down at her feet.
"It wasn't your fault. It was a common mistake." Harry said.
"I know, but I mean it was so stupid of me." Hermione said.
"No it wasn't." Ron said. Hermione nodded her head.
'Harry! HELP!' A voice in his mind yelled. Harry's head snapped around.
"Harry are you alright?" Hermione said.
'Godric?' Harry asked.
'Yeah, help Rosie and I fell into this ditch thing. We can't get out and there's people coming." Godric said.
'Oh no! Where are you guys?' Harry thought, his face showing panic. Everyone was looking at him like he was mental. He ignored them.
'About a mile away from camp. We followed the path.' Godric thought to him.
"Godric and Rosie are in trouble. I'll be back in a little bit." Harry said, then started to run down the path. James followed him along with Sirius and Remus. The others started to follow, but Lily held them back. They all looked at her confused.
"It's alright they can handle it." Lily said. Meanwhile, the Marauders were trying very hard to keep up with Harry. He stopped after a few minutes of running.
"GODRIC! ROSIE!" Harry yelled. A rustle came behind him and the marauders came out of the bushes. Harry had whipped around hand pointed at them.
"Chill." James said, panting. Harry nodded and called out again. Nothing.
"Come on...people were coming when Godric called me. If they find them, they'll be shipped off somewhere. Lions aren't common around here." Harry said, then began to run again. James, Sirius, and Remus all sighed and began to run after him. It's not that they were in bad shape, they weren't used to running a lot like Harry was. They stayed closer this time until Harry disappeared.
"Harry?" James said.
"I'm down here." Harry said. He had fallen into some type of hole. James put an arm down and helped him out.
"Thanks." Harry said. "GODRIC! ROSIE!" Harry called.
'Is that you!' A voice inside his head said.
'Yeah, are we close?' Harry thought to him.
'I hear you, but you're far away sounding. The people are close they're talking, they can't see us.' Godric said. Harry started going in the direction of the path. The adults following.
'I'll be right there, try to stay out of sight.' Harry thought to him.
'Will do.' Godric said. Harry ran and heard people talking and noticed them standing over a hole in the ground.
"Excuse me, are you lost?" A man asked.
"No, I was looking for my pet and my girlfriend's pet. See they like to wonder off. Have you seen them, they are two what look like minature lions, but they are a rare breed of cat." Harry asked, as James, Sirius, and Remus came in behind him.
"They might be in there, but we can see anything and they won't come out." A teenage girl said.
"Thank you. Godric. Rosie." Harry said, into the hole.
'Thank merlin!' Godric thought to him.
"There you are." Harry said, jumping into the hole. He picked up Godric and then Rosie. They sat looking at the people around the hole. This time Sirius helped him out.
"Awe, can I pet him?" The teenage girl said.
"Sure." Harry said. He picked up Godric and handed him to her. Then he picked up Rosie.
"He's so cute." The girl said.
"Thanks." Harry said.
"Sorry, that we caused you panic. We set these traps for boar." The man said.
"It's alright." Harry said, stratching Rosie behind the ears. She purred at his show of affection towards her.
"Thank you. We must go now." The man said. The girl handed back Godric and Harry turned as they began their journey back.
'Sorry.' Godric thought.
"It's alright. Just don't wander off so far." Harry said aloud to both of the two lions.
"You know, Harry, since we are in war and all. At school I won't deduct points for if and when you do prank me." James said randomly.
"That was random." Remus said. He seemed to have been in his own little world thinking.
"Yeah, it was. How often will you two be around?" Harry asked.
"Dunno. At least once a week." Sirius said. "Remus what has your mind so enthralled you can't focus?" Sirius added.
"Nothing important." Remus muttered, still lost in his mind.
"You sure?" Harry asked.
"Yeah, so can't wait to get back to Hogwarts hmm?" Remus asked.
"Something I can wait for; yet something I dread." Harry said.
"Why's that?" James asked.
"Well, the newspaper we all know and just love to death, reported everything that has happened also traving by word-of-mouth was what I did to those reporters. Not to mention, I have to get the D.A. started and train all my classmates for a battle they may all die in. Otherwise, I can't wait." Harry said."That's the way to keep optimistic!" Sirius said, patting him on the back. The group of boys made their way back to the campsite where everyone was hanging out getting ready packing up for the hike back home. After they packed up they went back to the cabin that is after the boys had a nap. Everyone spent the majority of the evening packing and after that was done everyone hung out in the family room while Harry and Lily made dinner. Lily almost grounded him if not been the fact he had argued the point how would she be able to keep him contained in his room.
"Harry hand me the-" Lily said, but Harry gave her the garlic before she could finish. He turned and smiled at her.
"You little twirp no Occumency." Lily said.
"I swear I didn't. I figured that you needed it for some reason. Jeeze." Harry said, dodging his mother's glare. "Go ahead how about you break into my mind." Harry added. She whipped out her wand and put it to his head. She whispered the incataion. Then she doubled over laughing. James came into the room wondering what was so funny.
"Go into his mind. He is surely your son." Lily said. James went into Harry's mind but was bouced back as a wall came up saying "Intruder Alert! Unathourized Personal!" James came out laughing so hard. His son had a good sense of humour. He had to admit that his son took after him.
"That's good." James said, patting his son on the back.
"Thanks. Mum, your dish towel is catching fire." Harry said, pointing to the towel setting next to a burner. He and James started to laugh.
"Well, put it out!" Lily said, getting up from the floor. Harry carelessly waved his hand and it was repaired and no harm done. Eventually everyone ate dinner and headed off to bed. Harry tossed and turned in bed not being able to sleep. He got up and went out onto the balcony. The light breeze embraced him. He sat on the railing looking out onto the wilderness. Random movements could be seen as birds flew up from some distrubance from a larger animal. Harry sighed as he thought of his life up to this point. He couldn't wait until the war was over to where he could live in peaceful and relaxful world. Suddenly he felt a hand on his shoulder. At first he almost fell off, but he caught himself. He turned around and saw Sirius looking at him with a smile.
"Sorry." Sirius said.
"It's alright. What'ca doing up?" Harry asked.
"Shouldn't I be asking you that question?" Sirius said. He joined Harry on a spot next to him on the rail made of wood.
"You should, but I asked first." Harry said. Sirius smiled and looked out into the woods.
"I couldn't sleep and I heard someone making a racket when I went to the bathroom for a drink of water. Sounded like someone tossing and turning in bed at first I thought you were having a nightmare. But I realized you were up and couldn't sleep either. So I went into the bathroom and got my drink and went back into your room. I figured I could get you to come downstairs or something and hang out a bit until we get tired enough to sleep. Then I walk into your room and see only two beds full. Therefore, I noticed the sliding door open and I saw you sitting out here sighing to yourself." Sirius said.
"Oh," Harry said. "Why couldn't you sleep?"
"Dunno, who ever does?" Sirius said, laughing quietly.
"Good point." Harry said.
"So, Pronglet, how are you and Hermy doing?" Sirius asked, elbowing him in a playful manner. Harry smiled at him.
"Good, although, you three decided to ruin a perfectly good date." Harry said.
"We didn't ruin anything, the only thing we did was ruin a perfectly good morning." Sirius said, laughing. Harry shook his head at his godfather. The two talked aimlessly as the hour passed. Eventually, Sirius became tired and went off to bed and Harry still sat on the railing looking out into the wilderness. It had a calming effect on him for some reason. He didn't know why the trees, water, and solitude gave him tranquility. Harry realized something, he had dreamless sleep potion in his dufflebag.
"Nah, I'll just stay up and sleep on the plane." He muttered to himself. Harry watched as the moonlight passed over his face as it began to decend and the sun took it's place in the sky. At dawn he went back into his room and packed up his belongings and ran all over the house grabbing all his loose items. After returning to his room he packed them and checked on everyone and noticed all asleep. His mother's clock was set for 8:00 a.m. He checked his watch and saw it was around 6:30 a.m. He peered into the girl's room and then turned to leave to go downstairs to prepare breakfast.
"Harry?" A girl whispered. Harry turned back around and saw a sleepy Hermione looking up at him from her curled up position.
"Yes?" He whispered back, leaning back into the room.
"What are you doing?" She said, getting up with her blanket curled around her. He put an arm around her as they walked downstairs.
"I was seeing if anyone was up." Harry said.
"I'm up. You on the other hand don't look like you slept well." Hermione said.
"That's because I didn't sleep at all." Harry said, as they crossed the family room floor.
"Why not?" Hermione asked. Her eyes had gone wide.
"I just couldn't fall asleep. I didn't have any nightmares if that is what you're worried about." Harry said.
"Oh, good." Hermione said.
"How'd you sleep." Harry said, stopping and looking down at her.
"Terrific. I had the most wonderful dream too." Hermione said.
"What did you dream about?" Harry asked.
"I was at this house and you came rushing down the stairs and scooped me up. Then took me outside where you had this beautiful garden set up. There were all these rose bushes, lily bushes, and everything but pansies and petunias. It was so wonderful." Hermione said, remembering the moment in her sleep.
"Maybe I'll do that one day, but for now," Harry said, lowering his head and gave her a light kiss. "That will have to do." Hermione smiled up at him and then he hugged her but sat her on the breakfast bar counter. She giggled as he did this then hopped back off.
"Do it again." Hermione said. Harry came back over to her and lowered his head and kissed her again. "No, not that I minded that, but put me back up there again." Hermione said. Harry smiled and picked her up spun her around and sat her back on the counter. She giggled and watched him start breakfast. From her seat on the counter she helped out.
"What do you want to do when we get back home?" Harry asked.
"I need to stop at home first. Tell Mum and Dad about the trip. You can come if you want. I also want to pick a few things up from home; books, a few clothes, and some other things." Hermione said.
"Sounds fun." Harry said. "I think everyone is staying at my house the rest of holidays." Harry said, getting out paper plates. Ron came down the stairs rubbing his eyes.
"Ron, watch the-" Hermione said, but Ron stubbed his toe on the couch.
"Ouch!" He said, loudly, but not loud enough to wake everyone up.
"Morning, mate." Harry said.
"G'morning." Ron said, sitting next to Hermione on the counter.
"Morning." Hermione said.
"How'd you two sleep?" Ron asked.
"Fine." Hermione said.
"I didn't." Harry said. Ron had a look of sadness on his face. "I didn't have a nightmare or anything. I dunno, just couldn't sleep. At least I'll be able to sleep on the plane." Harry added.
"Oh. Why don't we just apparate?" Ron asked.
"Because my Mum thought it would be fun to fly." Harry said. "Breakfast?" He asked, holding out two plates of eggs, bacon, sausage, and toast.
"Now, when have I ever refused a meal?" Ron asked, taking the plate.
"Thank you, Harry." Hermione said, taking another plate. Ron nodded in thanks. The famous trio talked a while about the new school year and what it was going to be like having James as a teacher. Least to say, they couldn't wait. They sat around eating their breakfast talking as a few of their friends came down. Ginny came almost tumbling down the steps if it hadn't been the fact Draco caught her, making both blush uncontrollably. Luna had come down right before them. It reached 8 o'clock in the morning when the teenagers were talking, but were interuptted by an alarm going off upstairs. Lily and James came down stairs into the family room and saw the teens sitting in the kitchen.
"Morning." All the teens greeted.
"Morning." The two 19-year-olds replied.
"There's food over there for you." Harry said. The two went over and joined their son and friends at the table. Remus came down the stairs and came into the kitchen greeting everyone. He grabbed his plate and sat next to James.
"What time does the plane leave?" Harry asked his mother.
"Nine-thirty." Lily said, clearing her plate. Harry just waved his hand and everyone's dirty plate, those who were done of course, cleaned itself and flew into the cabniet. Lily sat back down smiling at her boy. James was trying not to laugh.
"Where's Sirius at?" James asked.
"Sleeping." Remus said.
"Really, that's unsual for him." Lily said. Harry looked up from the magizine he was reading. Luna had let him borrow the Quibbler. He found it slightly interesting.
"Harry?" Remus asked, seeing him look up at the mention of Sirius.
"Yes?" Harry asked.
"Why's Sirius sleeping late?" James asked.
"Me and him were up talking this morning...or last night, depends how you look at it I suppose." Harry said.
"Why were you up?" Remus asked, a bit alarm in his voice.
"I couldn't sleep. Is it everytime I can't sleep I have to be having a nightmare or have and infultration in my head?" Harry asked.
"No, just usually, Harry, it's the only time you stay up." Hermione said to him gently, squeezing his hand under the table.
"You, Ron, and Remus all had the same reaction is all." Harry said.
"I know. It's just because we love you." Hermione said.
"I feel so special." Harry said with a laugh. The group talked for a few minutes before Harry volenteered to wake Sirius up. Harry wandered into the room and saw his godfather sleeping in bed curled up and his face buried in his pillow. He approached the bed in which this man occupied and sat on the edge. He rubbed his shoulder.
"Sirius, wake up." Harry said. Sirius groaned and rolled over. "Sirius, don't make me do something to you. That was a great comback. Now I'm talking to myself." Harry muttered. "Sirius, wake up." Harry said, pushing his shoulder and Sirius rolled over face down in his pillow. "Last chance." Harry said. "One..." Harry counted, walking over to Remus's bed. "Two..." He grabbed the pillow and walked back over to Sirius. "Two and a half..." Harry said. "Two and three quarters..." Harry sighed a loud fake sigh. "You give me no choice." Harry said, and started to hit Sirius with the pillow. Sirius was surprised and rolled off the bed. He grabbed his pillow and threw it at Harry. Then he transformed into a dog. He jumped over the bed and grabbed Harry's pillow with his teeth. Harry pulled on one end while Sirius pulled on the other. Harry smiled and let go and Sirius flew backwards onto the other bed.
"I told you I'd do something." Harry smirked. Sirius smiled, if possible, and jumped at Harry who dove out of the way. "Come on...I doubt you can catch me." Harry said. Sirius growled as if saying he was up to the challenge. Harry dove again out of the way of Sirius and into the hallway. He ran into his room and Sirius was running after him. Harry ran out onto the balcony into the girl's room back into Sirius's room. Then he hopped over the beds then ran back into the hallway and into his parent's room. Harry dove and tumble rolled over the bed and back around it and out the door with Sirius still following. Harry ran back into the hallway and towards the stairs. He slid down the banister and flew off onto a couch and Sirius came running down the steps in dog form still. Harry was laying on the couch as Sirius jumped towards him and Harry rolled off onto the floor and got up and ran into the kitchen. Sirius close behind.
"I got Sirius up." Harry said, running through the kitchen with Sirius still chasing him. The group laughed as the two ran in circles through the family room then to the kitchen. Harry then changed the pattern by jumping up onto the counter and hopped over to the other one. Sirius in dog form couldn't reach, but transformed back and grabbed almost around the ankles but missed by centimeters.
"HA!" Sirius shouted.
"HA!" Harry shouted back. Then he transformed into a pheniox and flew up and into the family room. James and Remus were laughing and thought Sirius needed some back up. Even though Remus didn't have a animagus form he could still help in human form. James transformed into a stag and Sirius back into a dog. Harry laughed at them but it came out in a pheniox song. The group watched in amusement as they tried to get a flying pheniox while all of them were on the groud. Sirius ran up the stairs and came back with a broomstick in his mouth. James transformed back and flew into the air and tried to get Harry. Harry had something up his sleeve like usual. Harry transformed back and fell onto the sofa from 6 feet in the air as Remus and Sirius ran towards him. Harry flipped backwards over the couch and sat next to Lily. He put a hand on her shoulder.
"HAHA! I'm on base! You can't get me." Harry said.
"That's cheating." Sirius said, transforming back.
"How so?" Harry said.
"Because we're not playing tag. We're playing "Catch-Harry-Because-He-Pummbled-Me-With-Pillows" that's why." Sirius said. Everyone laughed at Harry's choice to wake Sirius up.
"HEY! I resent that because I told you to get up twice, quite nicely then I counted to three after warning you of what I would do. Then I then hit you with a pillow once. After that you began to chase me throughout the house. Then we ended up in this converstation." Harry said, smiling.
"You or your mother will have to move eventually. At one point you'll have to become sperate." Remus said.
"No, black magic." Hermione said, standing up.
"Who said we were going to use magic?" James asked.
"No, it's part of the muggle version of tag. See no black magic means you can't babysit base which is stand around and wait for people to get off the base. It can also mean you can't set a time limit for being on the base and off of it as well." Lily explained.
"Oh!" James, Sirius, and Remus all said at the same time.
"Well, I call a time-out until we get back home." Harry said.
"Can he do that?" James asked. Hermione and Lily looked at each other and nodded.
"Yes, I believe he can." Hermione said.
"Are you just saying that because he's your boyfriend?" Remus asked.
"No, and neither am I because he's my son. He can do that." Lily said. James and Sirius eyed the two muggleborns.
"Alright..." James said. Harry took a hand off his mother and then ran into the bathroom. He came out a moment later.
"Thank Merlin, I really had to pee." Harry said. Everyone laughed at him. Sirius sat down to eat as the rest of the group packed up all of their items. As the group were in Harry's car, seeing how they had just dropped off the dune buggies, they made their way to the airport. There were a few complaints of why can't they just apparate. Other than that, it was a peaceful ride to the airport. While in the airport Harry was pulled aside because they noticed his pocket knife Sirius had given him. He had put it in his pocket on the way out the door.
"Excuse me, sir, we have to pull you aside." The guard asked him. Everyone's eyes had widened because of the fact that Harry has his wand on him.
"I'm sorry, sir, but that pocket knife was a gift from my godfather and on our way out of our cabin I had put it in my pocket. I had no intention of pulling it out of my pocket to harm anyone." Harry said. Then thoguht isn't it funny the-boy-who-lived the one again evil was being questioned about a simple pocket knife.
"Sir, we'll have to ask you to put this is your suit case and for that suitcase not to be carried on. We will send that suitcase to be stored in cargo." The man said.
"Yes sir." Harry said. He went over to his suit case and tucked the knife in between some clothes and closed it and handed it to the man. Harry had to remove his glasses, belt, order neckalace, and shoes. The he walked through the metal detector. Thank Merlin it didn't go off.
"Why do you all have this neckalace?" A girl asked, handing him his things in the little plastic box. Harry immediatly put on his neckalace and put on his shoes. Then put everything in his pockets.
"Club we're in." Harry said.
"Cool." The girl said. Harry joined the rest.
"Did he find your wand?" James whispered. Harry shook his head.
"That's good. Are you alright?" Lily asked.
"Yeah, I'm fine." Harry said. The group made their way to their terminal. After boarding the plane and finding their correct seats, they situated themselves and prepared for a long flight to Philadelphia. At first they were suprised that they didn't have a lay over in Las Vegas this time, but they were going into Philadelphia instead. That plane ride was uneventful except meeting with Kathy again for a moment. The group watched the inflight movie and soon enough they were in Philly (People around where I live call it Philly instead of Philadelphia.) Harry still hadn't slept yet.
"Harry, aren't you tired?" James asked.
"No, not yet really." Harry said, as they stepped into the terminal. The large group made their way down towards the British Airway section of the airport. Harry dropped his bookbag in the chair next to him as he sat down. Everyone took a seat in the terminal to wait for their next plane.
"I'm thirsty, can I go buy a drink?" Harry asked James.
"Sure." James said.
"Anyone else want a drink?" Harry asked. No one else wanted one so he went off to one of the little shops. He stood in line behind a group of people. He got to the front and ordered a soda and turned around and walked back towards his terminal. Harry really wasn't paying attention to someone walking backwards talking to two other people, and the girl tried to avoid him but he moved and still bumped into her. The two fell onto the floor. His eyes met with a pair of very fimilar blue eyes.
"HARRY! What on earth are you doing here?" Tori shouted. Harry stood up and held out a hand to help her up.
"Hello, Tori, nice to see you too." Harry said, sarcastically.
"Well, of course it's nice to see you, but why are you in a muggle airport." She said.
"We are coming back from Hawaii. Hey Chris, hello Kate." Harry said.
"Hey." Kate said.
"Hi." Chris replied. Tori picked up her backpack and put it back on.
"Why are you three here?" Harry asked.
"We're flying accross the pond. I guess we're on the same plane." Kate said, shrugging.
"What terminal?" Harry asked.
"Termial E5." Tori said, checking the ticket.
"I just realized something. But that doesn't matter right now. We're going to be on the same plane." Harry said. "Oh, and why were you walking backwards?" He added.
"I like walking backwards." Tori said, checking her watch. "The plane leaves in twenty minutes." She added. The four made their way to terminal E5 and found the rest of the group. Everyone exchanged greetings and got onto the plane.
"Ron. Hermione. Did you two realize what terminal this is?" Harry asked.
"E5?" Hermione said looking at her ticket. It dawned on her what he was talking about as it did with Ron. "That's scary." She said.
"What are the chances of that?" Ron asked.
"Chances of what?" Draco asked.
"We ended up in terminal E5, see in first year we had to get to the stone first. But see we had to win this giant chess game first. The last move was E5 where we won." Ron explained.
"Wow." Draco said. The group boarded the plane. Eventually they had taken off and were flying for only an hour when Harry finally fell asleep. It was seven o'clock at night when he drifted off into a deep sleep. Sirius and James were whispering to each other.
"I just don't get it." James said.
"Get what?" Sirius asked.
"Well, it's just why couldn't he sleep? He wasnt' tired all day. He's been up for almost 24 hours. If he had gone another three hours he would have been up for 24 hours, but he showed no sign of being tired at all today." James said.
"Good point. We were talking last night for a bit. He seemed fine. Harry just may have a lot on his mind that is finally catching up with him or something." Sirius said.
"Yeah, or something. Hermione told me when we were flying out there that he went to that hide-away thing Albus gave him. He went to it and was re-generated sort to speak. I don't think he used it today but he's already processed everything." James said.
"Don't worry, James, he's been through worse. Believe me his sleeping patterns isn't the worst thing that has happened to him. Maybe it has to do with his magic ablity that gives him some energy. He probably isn't use to not using his magic so often everyday. This whole trip had an effect on him that's all. Just pent up energy." Sirius said.
"Maybe you're right..." James said. He began to watch one of the many movies they were to play on this trip. Harry started to fidgit in his sleep a bit. James noticed his sudden jerk. Hermione, who was sitting next to him noticed too. James got up and went over to them.
"Is he okay?" He asked Hermione.
"Yeah, I think so." Hermione said.
"Let me check." James said. He was going to go into Harry's mind. James went in and found nothing wrong and the warning that he found funny came up. He came back out.
"He's fine, no one is in there. Maybe there was, and the jerk was him throwing them off or something." James said.
"Good." Hermione replied. James went and sat back down.
"He made one move and you panicked." Sirius said.
"I don't know, I just had a weird dream so...I guess it has put me on the edge of my seat." James said.
"What happened?" Sirius asked.
"Well..." James started.
Yes, I finished and I know people are a little mad at me not posting for over cough 20 cough days. So...yeah...I'm gonna work on the other one and get it out quicker than before. Also I was going to post yesterday cuz it being Fred and George's Birthday. But I had to go to the airport to pick up my grandparents. So yeah...anywho...hoped you like the chapter. Now all you have to do is click that little button on the left and leave me a nice little reply so I can be fueled for another chapter...
