Disclaimer:Well, none of these characters are mine. Just the situations that I put them into….

Enjoy and please don't hesitate to give me your opinions I'd really appreciate knowing anything that you think could help!

All throughout the story Albus just sat there listening still a bit shocked about seeing them. Then came their questions, "Why was Sirius put in Azkaban he's not a Death Eater and he's the one who saved us and would have saved Harry too if he could find him, but it seems that after James was taken someone else took him then Sirius came back and found Lily. It's the only solution I could think of; in fact it seems to be the only thing that fits. Why didn't he get a trial? Also what happened to Voldermort we haven't heard a word of him in about 800 different newspapers?" Albus sighed and collected his thoughts before replying, "I thought that Mr Black was the secret keeper and a Death Eater due to the fact that there were no injuries on his body which seemed to indicate that he was wiling in giving the information to Voldermort so did everyone else like Remus. Hagrid rescued Harry from your house after the fighting had ended so I think it is quite likely that you are correct in that. He didn't get a trial because it was assumed that there couldn't be anyone else who could have betrayed you, especially with the knowledge that he was the secret keeper. Mr Lupin may have known but even then the Ministry of Magic was strongly against Werewolves and wouldn't hear any testimony especially with Mr Black being such a close friend to Mr Lupin. The Ministry has gotten even worse about them now, they want everyone to register themselves and then where this badge in full sight wherever they go. The badge has something like 'I'm a werewolf (MOM).' It is ridiculous that they think that they can just label the werewolves as nonhumans but they haven't tried to touch Mr Lupin yet because he is under my wing. Voldermort lost his body that night and hasn't been heard of until two years ago when he tried to use the Philosophers Stone to regain his full body and then again when he tried to use a Horcrux to get himself back to his body which if he had succeeded would have been a 17 year old body."

Lily had tears threatening to come out of her eyes; while James looked like he could punch a wall and not even feel it. He glanced at her and his face and eyes softened, then he drew her into his arms. "You wouldn't happen to know where Remus is would you Albus? I think we need to talk to him." James asked and Lily nodded. Albus was watching and had smiled when he saw James put his emotions away to comfort his wife. Although they were young when they had gotten married he couldn't help wondering how still after all of this time without memories, Lily always brought out the best in him; The softer side that wasn't often shown to anyone other than those who needed it.

Albus realised they were just staring at him and smiled remembering their question. He thoughtfully responded, "I know where he is and think that perhaps it would be best if you went to see him after dinner. You see he is our new Defence Against the Dark Arts teacher and he is busy trying to get all of the students up to where they should be after Gilderoy Lockheart's terrible teaching last year. He had a fantastic reputation but all he was really good at was memory charms to make people think he had discovered something rather than the real person. It should only be..." Albus paused looking at the sun and saw that it had set long ago and that the snacks that they had eaten had been replaced with dinner which they had eaten too; "well… now we've been talking for longer than I realised, you do know where his rooms are don't you? Time passes so quickly. Could you do me a favour and keep your cloaks over your faces I don't really want anyone fainting or anything." They nodded stood up and were about to leave when he said, "Come back here before you leave so that I know where you are and by then I may have a few ideas like I can find you somewhere to stay the night the password to get into my office is 'Danish Tart'." They smiled realising it was one thing that they hadn't tried in their guessing. "Thanks you don't know how long we spent guessing what it was." Albus laughed as they left.

When someone knocked on the door a few minutes later, Albus immediately knew who it was. If Minerva had been waiting outside in the corridor until they left just to make sure he was alive or something then this would her coming to see what was happening. He calmly called out, "Come in Minerva!" When the door opened and Minerva walked in he looked amused at the shock in her face that he knew it was her. She walked forward to take the seat that Albus gestured to in front of him. "Who were they Albus? Not Death Eaters I hope? Are you alright?" She seemed genuinely concerned and worried about the fact that Death Eaters could have gotten into Hogwarts without anyone realising it. Albus chuckled softly as he looked at her the twinkle in his eyes brighter than it had been in years. "My dear Minerva you really think that there is a chance that not one but Two Death Eaters could have gotten into Hogwarts without me realising it more so that they could spend around two hours trying to guess my password with of course candy names don't you? Of course they didn't guess the password but they were close had they not decided to give up and just look for me in the Great Hall at the end or start of a meal they would have gotten it." She stared at him in horror and shock, "if they know that you only use candy and deserts for your passwords you are going to have to change your topic because Death Eaters are one day going to find their way into the castle and therefore try to take you down to stop you interfering with You-know-who." He seemed amused "Minerva you really should get used to calling him Voldermort, you know fear of the name only increases fear of the thing its self. Also they weren't Death Eaters. I'm surprised you didn't recognise them but of course they had their cloaks covering their faces. This may have given you the impression that they were Death Eaters. I really cannot imagine Lily and James Potter as Death Eaters can you?" she just stared looking shocked and almost a little frightened because they had been seen by both of them and the Weasly twins and they weren't ghosts so how were they alive?

"But Albus you must know that it is impossible that they are alive for Lily Potter died to protect and place the blood protection on Harry. Perhaps you could explain." She frowned at him almost daring him to not tell her. He sighed and started to speak, "they said Peter Pettigrew, their Secret keeper went out after saying he would get supplies for them. When he didn't come back quickly James went out and got the supplies they needed on his way back he saw two of their friends who they discovered were Lily's Aunt and Uncle. When Voldermort arrived James and Lily realised that Peter was the traitor not Remus like they had thought because of the rumours of the werewolves joining Voldermort. Lily's uncle Henry threw himself in front of the killing curse meant for James at the same time knocking James out. Voldermort went upstairs Sophia Lily's aunt Blocked the killing curse meant for Harry and Lily. Lily was thrown somewhere else in the room and also knocked out. Voldermort tried to kill Harry; and his body was destroyed instead of killing Harry, and it left the scar on Harry's forehead. James and Lily were rescued by Sirius and Sirius went after Peter. 10 years later they came out of comas without any memories because their subconscious blocked them. They didn't even know their names. They got back to Britain from New Zealand paid off their hospital bills. Then they saw Sirius on the front of a muggle newspaper and memories started to come back. Well that's everything well a lot shorter than the way they told me but anyway. Does that help Minerva?" She didn't do anything but stare at him in shock at what had happened and how lucky they'd been. "One more question, where are they now?" Albus was proud at how quickly she'd gotten over the shock about what had happened and knew he'd taken longer. "They went to go talk to Remus actually why?" she didn't seem surprised but not much could have really surprised her after that, "Oh I just wanted to say welcome back and ask if they wanted to talk about Harry. I am his Head Of House after all. Don't worry I'll be gentle and not go into too much detail about the dangerous stuff Albus." She added hastily after she saw a flash of worry in his eyes probably about what Harry had gone through at such a young age she thought. He smiled and nodded replying "I'll direct them to you if they have any but maybe I'll get them a room for the night first let them sleep. It all depends on how long it takes them to talk to Remus. I'll send Fawkes to warn you when they are coming so why don't you go sleep or rest until then." She smiled thanked him and quietly left the room, closing the door behind her.

Back to James and Lily

"Well I have to say he took it better than I was imagining it. I was worried the guy was going to faint or something," I murmured to Lily as we walked down the corridor that Remus's classroom office and bedroom were on. Lily nodded in agreement, "the story wasn't as bad as we thought it would be to tell either." That comment I agreed completely with. We arrived outside and walked into the empty classroom, up the stairs and knocked on the office door. When there was no response I pulled out my wand and alohomored the door. Inside the office was neat and tidy like moony always was. I was pleased that he obviously hadn't changed that much. We walked through the office towards where his room was and knocked on that door. From within there was a call of, "be there in a moment." So we stood and waited.

When I opened the door I really wasn't expecting to see James and Lily on the other side. As a matter of fact I was wondering who would come to see me at this time of night. I moved out of the way gesturing for them to come in. They did of course and I said disbelievingly "James? Lily?" after receiving their nods in unison I asked would you like a drink of anything?" this time they shook their heads. Finally the silence from then was broken, "you look older Moony last time we saw you, you didn't have the lines on your face or at least they weren't as noticeable. So how are you?" I still just stared then said softly, "I'm good. What happened to you two you, I don't mean to be rude or anything but I thought that you were dead." I smiled to take the sting out of the words. They smiled back and started to tell me the story but first James came and gave me a hug, and said, "I'm so sorry moony we both are. When I think back now I wonder how I could have even thought that you were the one who was giving our secrets to Voldermort. It just seemed to make sense especially when I knew it was one of us five, me, Lily, You, Sirius or Peter. I knew it wasn't me or Lily so it was down to you three. I bluntly asked Sirius and he said it wasn't him so that left you or Peter. Also you seemed to be disappearing a lot then and quite frankly I didn't believe Peter had it in him or that Voldermort would actually go after him I mean let's face it he was pretty much a squib. Guess I was wrong about who the traitor was huh. I guess we thought having everyone think that Sirius was the secret keeper when it was really Peter who was the secret keeper didn't work out so well either. So old Friend will you forgive my doubts about you?" I sat staring at James's serious face and turned to look at Lily's which was equally serious but a little bit of worry was in hers too.

There was a very long silence which I guessed Moony was using to digest everything I'd said. Then he softly said, "How could I blame you James, Lily? We all heard the rumours of the werewolves joining Voldermort. There is nothing that you forgiveness for." I was happy and relieved and when I glanced at Lily she was too. I smiled and finally let moony go. I moved back and pulled Lily up say down and pulled her onto my lap and then after gesturing to Moony to take the other seat; together we told him about the terrible night of which we will never forget again. At the end he frowned thinking and we sat patiently allowing him to fully absorb what we had said.

Then he spoke startling us with his question, "so have you met your son yet? He is in third year. I teach him in Defence Against The Dark Arts. He's a good student although from what I've heard he is not so good at potions." I laughed while Lily looked slightly disappointed that he hadn't inherited that ability from her. She didn't seem disappointed for long. "You know Harry seems…" there was a knock at the door interrupting his sentence. "Professor? Professor Lupin?" We frowned and we stood moving out of the way quickly casting a disillusionment charm over the both of us and so that Remus's visitor could sit down and we moved unobtrusively to the corner of the room. Remus let the boy in and I gasped it had to be Harry he looked exactly like I would have at his age except for his eyes which were the same colour as Lily's.

I welcomed Harry into my room hoping that James and Lily could be quiet while I gave Harry the lesson. "Come on in Harry. I've been thinking, Do you still want to learn the charm?" at his nod I continued; "Very well then just know that it is a very difficult charm that is well beyond ordinary wizarding levels. Even some fully grown witches and wizards cannot achieve it, but we can try if you are sure?" Harry watched me for a second before nodding. "Alright the charm I'm going to try to teach you is called the patronus charm, This creates a barrier between the wizard and Dementor with the dementor feeding off the barrier instead of the wizard. To cast this charm you need to think of a very strong, happy emotion" when after a minute Harry nodded I continued. "With your fear being a dementor we can use a boggart for practice. The incantation is 'Expecto Patronum' If it doesn't work you may have to choose another memory alright?" when I finished speaking I walked over to the chest that contained the boggart. When Harry said somewhat nervously "I'm ready" I opened it and released the boggart which immediately formed into the shape of a dementor. Harry had his wand drawn and He said "Expecto Patronum" quickly when nothing came out of him wand except a silver wisp I yelled at him, "not strong enough choose another memory and try again." There was a pause of about a second before he yelled the incantation this time a patronus came out of his want forcing the boggart back into the chest I quickly slammed the top on and locked it using Alohomora before the patronus had fully disappeared. "Well done Harry. Here take this Madame Pomfrey would be angry with me if I didn't and you should be getting back to your house. I didn't think that you would pick it up as quickly as you did remember it's a real accomplishment that you achieved tonight. Goodnight Harry." I said as I gave him a block of chocolate and walked him to the door I smiled as he said, "Good night and thank you professor!" He quietly left, closing the door behind him.

As soon as the door had closed and I heard Harry's footsteps fading away as he walked away I turned back to where Lily and James had come out of under the disillusionment charm. I smiled at their shocked faces waiting until they got over it and found their voices again I gestured for them to sit back down. "But Moony why does a third year need to learn the patronus charm?" I thought carefully about how much I should tell them. "Well James the dementors seem to really like to suck his memories out and when they did so the last two times he fainted after remembering all that he could about the night that you died or well you nearly died when he thought that you died anyway apparently all he remembers James is you yelling at Lily to take Harry and run then there is a bright green light all of this he has to suffer through just before he falls unconscious. This has happened twice this year so far. Because Sirius Black escaped from Azkaban and is assumed to be trying to kill Harry, there were two dementors searching the train for Sirius, and well I was on it too because I wanted to sleep it hadn't been long since the full moon you see. They were quiet and were in the same compartment because of course everywhere else was full. When I felt the dementors of course I used the patronus charm which is for me about as powerful as Harry's is now which could be interesting because if he really needs it quite soon it is likely it will be fully fledged, what form it will take I don't know. Anyway the reason he asked me to teach him was because during one of the quidditch matches Gryffindor verses Hufflepuff the dementors left their stations around the edges of the grounds, again Harry fainted but this time it was a lot more dangerous because he was thousands of feet above the pitch. Were it not for Albus he probably would have died. I have never seen him so angry as then with him sending the dementors back to their stations. I think all of the teachers hate having him here. The way that you have said it, it seems odd that Sirius is still trying to enter the castle but it makes sense because he got into the Gryffindor tower one night and Ronald Weasly woke up with him above his bed holding a knife but when Ron started to scream his pet rat scabbers ran and so did Sirius. What do you think? Could it be that the rat scabbers is actually Peter?" I could see James was thinking and trying to work out if it was possible to have occurred.

"If Sirius was a heartless killer he would have just killed Mr Weasly and been done with it. People may think that he had the wrong bed of course and was looking for Harry; instead of Peter. Although I do find it hard to believe that Peter would be at Hogwarts hiding despite how it is meant to be one of the safest places in the magical world I can't imagine how safe it is for a Death Eater." I said thoughtfully, "Maybe we should find him and prove that Sirius is innocent which would at the same time prove that we are still alive and then we can take Harry home for the holidays. That is if he doesn't want to stay with whoever has been looking after him." Lily turned and looked at me with tears in her eyes before turning back to face Remus and asking, "Who is Harry living with?" As I watched Remus became a bit uncomfortable probably trying to gage our reactions to whoever it is going to be, "Umm Lily, your sister Petunia and her husband Vernon." He didn't seem ready for the tears that immediately started pouring out of Lily's eyes she was so upset. I carefully lifted her up and turned her around so that although she was crying which made me want to cry it stopped me from walking out and apparating at their house and punching them and then putting a hex on them. Harry had seemed so thin almost underweight and that was after months of being at Hogwarts. I couldn't imagine what he would look like when he just arrived.

When Lily finally stopped crying half an hour later I drew my wand and conjured a handkerchief so that she could wipe her eyes and blow her nose. After she was done I glanced at my watch to see the time. In seeing that it was nearly midnight I excused us and we quietly walked back up to Albus's office this time knowing the Password.

When Albus heard a knock at the door he called out knowing who it was," come on in Lily and James." The door opened and in they walked. "Alright I have a set of guest quarters for you to use for tonight on the charms corridor just ask for breakfast in the morning the house elves will grant it to you and then after breakfast why don't you go talk to Minerva. After all she is the head of Harry's house. They nodded and then James responded, "Actually we were wondering If we could hang around for a while because after talking to Remus we realised that as well as Sirius being around here Peter must be as well. You know with Sirius trying to hunt him down and all. We thought that if we could find him we could clear Sirius's name and then although everyone will know we are alive it will mean that Death Eaters won't be able to attack us so easily because well we will be better known again rather than being thought dead already. That didn't make much sense did it, oh well it's after midnight so I think we will find those rooms and go sleep." They stood and quietly left the office after Albus nodded and said "You can stay as long as you like just try to stay under a disillusionment charm or under glamour spells to try to make yourselves less noticeable" they said, "alright" as they walked out the door towards their bed.

By the way there doesn't seem that much more to go but yay I updated another one today. Is it just me or do they seem to get longer with each update!

LOL!
