Chapter 6 Godric Hollow And the Secret To Dumbledore's Ring
Harry woke up the next day, he saw Rane was sitting on the chair curled up, her black hair all over her arms. He stood up and placed a blanket around her shoulders. She pulled her head up and stared at him, her eyes red, she had felt bad for what happened to the guy.
"Are you okay?" He asked softly.
"Yes, can we go see mums and dads grave? She whispered sadly, "I've never gotten to see it before."
"I was going to ask you the same thing." And he really was.
They didn't tell anyone where they were going, they just wrote a note to the Weasley's and to Hermione, saying there thanks and one time again they'll see them. If not, maybe sooner then they think. Rane felt bad for leaving with out saying goodbye to Ginny or Hermione. She really like them, but knew that they would just want to come, she could tell that about them.
Harry felt that he shouldn't say goodbye, it would be harder for him, and he knew it, so he and Rane both sighed the note and took off. Hedwig was flying around and Harry called her, he said goodbye to her and Rane said goodbye to Hedwig too. Hedwig seemed to be saying I'll miss you as they left. She flew to the sky and vanished from sight.
The two of them had there brooms out and jumped onto them, they flew high in the sky as well, looking down and glimpsing one last time at the Burrow as it was all still peaceful.
"Will it ever be the same and normal again?" Rane had asked him.
"Probably not, know that Voldemort is back, who knows what is going to happen." He whispered.
Rane nodded, "You're right."

Ginny had wanted to talk to Harry for some time now, she felt bad for what he and Rane saw, she got out of her bed and found some fresh cloths to wear. She threw her p.j's into the washing machine and headed up the stairs to where Harry was sleeping. When she saw he wasn't there she was confused, she ran down the stairs thinking he got a bite too eat when she saw the note she started to cry.
"No…Harry, Rane, why are you doing this." She then remembered the dead man, and the look on both there faces. "There going to…to… fight Voldemort…they have to be." She sobbed, holding onto herself. Nothing will be the same anymore.
Hermione caught Ginny reading the note, "Let me see it." She whispered, and Ginny handed it over, when Hermione read it she sighed, "Harry…" She frowned.
There was a silence as the Weasley family and Hermione sat down around the table, they all looked at one another and stared at the note that lie in the middle of the table. Everything seemed worthless, there wouldn't be a reason to go get them, when there minds were up; it seemed to stay there.
"We should go find them at least, or call the Aurors to get them." Mrs. Weasley said in a motherly voice.
"No, we can't, we have to stay here, or if we go, Harry will get mad at us, and when he gets mad lately, he seems to grow more hatred for us; I don't want that to happen." Hermione whispered.
"Hermione…Harry and Rane are doing this for a reason, they have to go for them, and for everyone they care for." Ginny said softly, everyone turned to look at her.
"Are you okay Ginny?" Ron asked, concerned.
"No, I'm not okay, Ron I love Harry, and I know he's you're best friend, but I don't know what I'd do if I lost him." She whispered, as tears fell from her eyes. Mrs. Weasley ran to her daughter and hugged her tight.
Everyone sat there in silence. For all the things Harry had done, they would leave him alone, he helped them in so many ways he didn't even know he did. That's why they all loved Harry, he was part of there family, and they were apart of his small one that became two.

Harry and Rane looked below them, it took an hour to get to Godric Hollow, Rane kept on staring at Harry, wondering if he did the right thing back there, but knew nothing could change time now. As they landed in the Godric Hollow Street, they looked around. Everything seemed quiet, Harry had gotten the address of where his parents lived from Dumbledore before, he had asked him when he wanted to go one time before this, but Dumbledore told him he would give the address to him on one condition, for him to wait until the year at Hogwarts was over. So he waited, and because he waited, he met his only living relative, his sister.
They both stared at the house that was rebuilt, it was there parents house, there house, the one they were suppose to be living in. Rane felt tense, she wanted to just run into the house, she didn't though, just looking at it made her want to cry, she had never got to see her parents before, but entering the house would give her the sight to see everything that happened, and yes that did mean the death and lives of her mom and dad. Harry stared at her, he knew what she was thinking, and felt a sudden sadness for her, she had no idea who they were, who they really where, and he didn't either, he just knew bits and pieces. They both nodded and took a step up towards there house. As they got to the door, they both took a big sigh in and opened it.
Harry peered around the inside, it was large, and had a living room to one side, with a fire place and cozy furniture. On the other side held the kitchen and attached was the dining room. Rane's eyes went wide, it was beautiful, she wanted to touch everything, to feel her mom and dad, but Harry would think she was a freak, so she waited to feel her parents presence. Harry walked up the stairs, while Rane started to go into the kitchen.
Harry kept on walking up the stairs, his head was pounding hard, and his palms were full with sweat. He kept on urging himself up the stairs, as he looked around he found the door that said Harry and to the other side he saw a door that said Rose Marie. Harry felt that was his sisters name, he frowned, she had not known what her real name was, she must of thought mom and dad had given her that name, but she was wrong. He didn't open any of the doors, the memories would rush back to him, and that might hurt a lot, so he waited for Rane, as he sat down on the last top stair, waiting for her.

Rane touched the counter and saw her mom chopping up some onions, but she wasn't crying, she saw Harry in his high chair smiling happily, and her father sitting besides him, feeding him some baby food. There was another high chair, but it was put in the corner, she smiled at it. At least they knew she might have been born. Her mom had turned and there was a frown on her face, but the look on Harry made her smile as she walked over to them. She kissed Harry on the forehead, the door bell ran and her father ran to the door, she followed him and saw a man walk in. He was tall as her dad, with longer black hair, and a smirk that looked like her dads, were they brothers? No, they couldn't be, she felt it. They both sat down in the kitchen and they were all laughing about something. Rane looked away and she was brought back to reality. She felt as though her mom was holding her, she knew she wasn't and she ran out of the kitchen and looked up to see Harry standing there.
"Are you okay?" Harry asked, as she nodded quickly and ran up the stairs, she passed Harry and gave him her hand. "Want a hand?" She smirked just like her dad.
Harry nodded slowly and grabbed her hand, she pulled him up and they looked down the hall way, "Do you want to see you're room first Rose Marie?" Harry asked.
"Rose Marie?" She said confused, and then she saw Harry's name on a door and then another name, except…, "Wait, is that my name?" She asked confused.
Harry nodded, and put a hand on her shoulder, "I thought my name was Rane.." She whispered, as she turned to stare at Harry.
"Are you okay? Do you want to go inside, or no?" He asked, making sure she was alright with everything.
She bit her lip and turned towards her room and opened it, Harry followed. Rane turned on the light and peered around, there was a pink crib in the far end of the room, a lot of teddy bears and cards sitting on the drawers. Harry stared at everything, and smiled, it was beautiful. Rane ran to the bigger bed they had put in there, as if they were waiting for her to come back when she was older. She sat on it and closed her eyes as she lay backwards. Harry laughed softly and walked over to her.
"Thanks Harry," Rane whispered, "For brining me here."
"No problem sis." Harry said, smiling, he had always wanted to say that.
"We should go see you're room and then to the graveyard, we need to get more information." Rane said.
Harry nodded, "You're right, lets go."
The two of them walked out of Rane's room and right into his room, Harry saw his crib and his bed as well, there were many toy trucks and many toy wands laying on the floor, Harry smiled and walked over to his bed and looked around his room. Rane smiled at this, his was just as wonderful as hers. They both gave each other a small smile and Harry stood up, he couldn't stay in here any longer, as he walked out, Rane frowned, hoping he was okay and followed him. When they were finally outside Harry turned away from Rane, Rane placed her hands on his shoulders, "It's okay bro."
Harry laughed softly, "Thanks sis." They both turned and hugged one another as they went down to the grave yard, it had seemed forever for them to reach it, everything was pounding around them, and when they reached it there was two tomb stones sitting there besides one another. They both nodded to one another, but they didn't look at each other, they just stood tall and proud as they sat down in front of the graves.
Lily Potter and James Potter is what it said on the two tombs. A mother, a father, a friend, and a wizard. Both of them smiled as they saw what else was written on them.
"I miss them." Rane whispered, she saw a lily flower in front of her moms, it looked like it was freshly put there, she picked it up and smelled it. "It's beautiful."
Harry nodded, he stared at his fathers grave, there in front of him was a ring, a gold little ring, it looked like the one Dumbledore wore, but it wasn't the same one. For it had a letter (P), on it, and Harry's heart was racing quickly. He picked it up and placed it on his right hand. A strange sensation swept through his body as he stood up. Rane looked at him, and was confused until she saw the ring.
"I have the same one." Rane said, standing up, "Except it was from an old lady who said she was my grandmother, I thought she was joking."
Harry spun towards her, "What was her name and last name?" He asked quickly.
"Jasmine Potter Dumbledore, why?" Rane asked, and then it hit her, Dumbledore…Oh no…
"Dumbledore!" Harry cried, "My grandfather…was Dumbledore?" Harry had never realized it, until now, it was real, this was real, he just got a sister, but lost a grandfather, he had two parents who were dead, he had his horrible Aunt Petunia and Uncle Vernon and you couldn't forget Dudley. Now everything was piling on him, this was too much, he couldn't believe his ears, she was lying, and she had to be.
"Harry I am not lying!" Rane roared, "Yes, I can read minds, but I didn't try to read your's it just blew up in my mind as you were thinking about mom and dad, and the rest of our small, but real family."
"I'm sorry!" Harry burst out, "It's just that I haven't thought about any of this, the rings I understand, but Dumbledore being my grandfather? That's impossible…"
"No it's not, when that old lady gave me the ring I had a flash back of Dumbledore, I didn't know it was him at the time, because I didn't know what he looked like, you just told me stories of him, not his appearance or how he talked, or how he did anything. The flash back was of our grandmother Jasmine and our grandfather Albus, first Albus was sitting in his office, and there was a great bird, that was the part that was beautiful. Anyways, he was sitting there when Jasmine walked inside, she didn't knock or anything, Dumbledore looked up at her and was confused at first but stood up and walked over to her. Here let me bring you into the flash back." She whispered, and touched Harry's hand, the one where the ring was placed. They both spun around until the where in Dumbledore's office. It was the part where there grandmother ran inside.
"I'm sorry I didn't tell you before Albus…" Jasmine cried.
"Didn't tell me what?" Albus asked, his eyes turning a slightly more grayish color, his half moon spectacles half way down his nose.
"That…that…you are my son's real father, I lied to you all those years to protect him, to protect our family, but it's no use, I can't lie to you anymore, Harry Potter is our grandson, and James Potter is…is you're son."
"You lied to me about that? For all these years! Jasmine, I thought you were serious when you said you had the child with that Albera man."
"No I kept my name as Jasmine Potter Dumbledore, only telling James his last name was Potter. No one knew this." She whispered to him.
Both of them stared at one another, and both of them looked at the rings they wore, Harry and Rane both looked at there's.
"After all these years, he is my son, and Harry is my grandson." There was a smile placed on Dumbledore's lips. "Has anyone else heard this information?"
"No, but you can't tell Harry until the time is right, or else it will ruin everything he is." She whispered.
He nodded, "Alright."
Harry's mind was spinning as he and his sister were now sitting in the present. He stared at Rane, who stared back at him, she wanted to tell him something, but Harry looked like he didn't want to talk, to just think.
"I'll leave you to you're thoughts then." She said, standing up.
"No, don't leave, please?" Harry asked, he stood up and stared at her, "Lets go for a walk and then we can decide where to go from there." Harry replied.
Rane nodded and they both slowly walked out of the grave yard, she stared at Harry, he had a stern look on his face, and he looked like he almost aged a few years from everything he saw, and since he was wearing the ring, his and her power felt stronger. Maybe they had power in them, power only for them two. She wondered…
