Hermione woke Ron and Harry before dawn. They hadn't told the rest of the Weasley's what they were doing, so they wanted to be gone and back before the rest of the household awoke.

"I can't believe you woke us so early," Ron muttered.

"Shut up, Ron," was all Hermione said.

Ron was about to say something else but caught Harry's glare and fell in meekly with Hermione's wishes.

They stopped in front of the fireplace and Hermione pulled out a small sack of floo powder from a duffel bag she carried. "Okay, floo to the Ministry. We'll do the ceremony at the veil. Any questions?" the final statement was sent toward Ron.

Never known to back down from annoying Hermione, Ron grinned. "Exactly how are we going to do this?"

Hermione rolled her eyes. "Just go."

In what felt like instantly, they were in the Department of Mysteries before the veil.

Hermione dropped her duffel bag and began to sort through it. "Stop looking at my behind, Ron."

Ron whistled innocently, but his ears were violently red.

"Aha!" Hermione stood back up with a small vial with an actual white potion in it. She handed it Ron. "As I'm saying the spell, pour this along the edge of the veil." She turned to Harry. "You are to sit cross-legged at a 62 degree angle to the veil."

Harry frowned and stared at the ground. Hermione groaned in frustration before setting Harry where he was supposed to be.

"Clear your mind of all thoughts but Sirius," Hermione said when Harry was placed.

Harry nodded. "Okay."

"No, not 'okay'," Hermione snapped. "If something else pops into your head you can bring back the wrong person or worse. We don't have enough resources for you to muck this up!"

Harry nodded. "Okay!"

Hermione nodded. "Good."

She set herself exactly five steps behind Harry. "Deseamos Sirius. Traer detrás Sirius. Ahora. Deseamos Sirius. Traer detrás Sirius. Ahora."

Hermione swayed and actually fainted. Harry wanted to get up to help her but was rooted to the ground. A strong wind went through the room and Harry could see that Ron was having trouble staying upright.

A minute later, he heard a tear in the veil and out walked Sirius, dressed in completely white.

"Sirius!" Harry shouted.

Ron's eyes glanced back and forth between Sirius and the still unconscious Hermione. Finally, his legs seemed to move and he went and scooped Hermione up.

Hermione stirred. Her eyes opened and Ron nearly swooned with relief. "What?" Hermione asked. "Did it work?"

Ron set Hermione down. "See for yourself," he pointed at Harry who was hugging Sirius.

Hermione lit up. "This is wonderful!"

She ran to Sirius and laughed when he picked her up. "Welcome back!"

He looked completely different from when they last saw him. They saw no remain of the haunting in his eyes after he came out of Azkaban. They now saw a tall man with black hair and startling dark blue eyes. His hair flopped into his face gracefully instead of hanging limp like it use to. Sirius grinned. "It's nice to be back," Sirius assured them. "Come over here, Weasley."

Ron grinned and hugged Sirius as well.

Hermione stood away and smiled at Harry shyly.

He hugged her tightly. "Thank you so much," he whispered in her ear.

She stepped out of his embrace. "I have another surprise for you," she said.

"I don't think anything can top this, but I'll bite," Harry said.

Hermione smiled slyly. "I think this might."

She blindfolded Harry and Sirius and had Ron help her lead them to their next destination: the Godric's Hollow cemetery.

Ron removed the blindfold from Sirius while Hermione did the same for Harry.

Harry's eyes settled on the headstones of his parents and went rigid. "Why did you bring us here?" he asked tonelessly.

"I figured you'd want your parents back too," Hermione offered.

Harry looked at her in amazement. "You're not joking?"

Hermione shook her head. "I'm not joking," she smiled.

"This is great!" Harry exclaimed. "I mean, what do we have to do?"

Hermione set Harry at a 62 degree angle to the headstones and handed Ron another vial of pure white potion. She pushed Sirius next to Harry and took five steps back from them and began to repeat the spell.

Hermione knew the spell worked when a white glow engulfed the headstones and two people seemed to float out of the grave. The man was lanky with messy black hair was glasses covering hazel eyes. The woman was petite and slim. Red hair cascaded down her back and her eyes were the most vivid shade of green Hermione had ever seen except for on Harry. The two were wearing white and didn't look a day over 21. Neither did Sirius for that matter.

Lily hugged her son to her while James greeted his old friend.

"We are so proud of you," Lily whispered to Harry who couldn't seem to form a sentence.

Lily then hugged Hermione and Ron, whose ears went pink. "Thank you," she said sincerely.

"It was my pleasure," Hermione said truthfully.

"I believe that," Lily smiled.

James hugged the still frozen Harry. "It's no wonder you don't have a girlfriend. You get frozen talking to your parents who are supposed to be dead," James joked.

After a heartfelt reunion back at Grimmauld Place, that included scolding from Mrs. Weasley on their irresponsibility and Sirius, James, and the twins mocking her, everyone went to bed while James, Lily, Remus and Sirius sat in the drawing room.

"I can't believe they brought us back," Lily murmured.

"I can," Sirius beamed. "Death isn't for me. I like it on good 'ol earth."

Lily rolled her eyes. "You know, you never-."

"Can we get through a day before you two chew each other out?" James asked, exasperated.

Remus nodded. "It looks like nothing changed," he commented idly.

"Actually, mate," James began apologetically.

"It doesn't matter, James," Remus said.

"No, it does. I'm sorry, Moony. I should've known better than to believe you would betray us," James said. "We were just-. No, there's no excuse. I'm sorry, man."

Remus nodded. "It doesn't even matter anymore, but thanks, James."

Lily smiled. "Let this be known that I never doubted you for a second, Remus."

"You wouldn't," Remus smiled.

"Ah, I'm glad to see you all together," Dumbledore said, sweeping into the room. "I have a proposition for you."

James looked at Remus, who shrugged.

"I'm in the need for a Defense teacher, and I wouldn't suppose that either of you would be interested?" Dumbledore asked.

James snorted. "Moony is the sellout, not us."

Remus stuck his tongue out childishly.

Sirius frowned. "Teach? At Hogwarts? Kids? I don't know Dumbly."

"I would be much obliged," Dumbledore insisted. "In fact, why don't all three of you do it?"

"Three teachers? That's a bit much, don't you think?" Lily asked.

"Not at all," Dumbledore said. "In fact, it's perfect. Mr. Lupin will be out once a month and that leaves Mr. Potter and Mr. Black. The two of them together would be better than just one."

"So you say," Lily muttered.

"Hmm," Sirius said, rubbing his chin.

"We'll do it," the three Marauders said together.

FYI:

What changed about this chapter?
Hmm. Better grammar and word choise. Better description, I think. Better characterization. Less stupidness, I know that for sure. However, I know that one day, I will edit this ALL OVER AGAIN. Yippee. I can't wait.

What are the pairings?
 For those who have not read this story before I deleted it, well, you'll just have to wait and see.

How often will I update?
I don't know yet. I'll update as often as possible, but editing this is a lot harder than it was for The Marauder's Jacket. I practically rewrote that. Actually, I've done almost the same for this one too.

Why am I doing a FYI/FAQ section?
I've noticed that lately, when I update a chapter, I don't remember to answer the reviews, and I really love doing that. So I figured that this way, all questions will be answered if I forget.

Thank you for all the reviews! I really appreciate them.
