Lily and James Potter rode down the abandoned back roads of London. They had left the old warehouse for a couple days after they dismissed of Laura, said they needed some fresh supplies. But that was a lie, they wanted some alone time, everyone knew it. But of course they would stop by a shop in Knockturn or steal some stock from a stop warehouse.
The day before was the full moon, they rode off to a backwoods miles and miles away from any form of civilization and transformed. Woke up almost a mile away from their bike, had a heck of a time getting back.
"James stop here." Lily said and he pulled the bike over. "See this little shop? It's a shop for werewolves, some of the guys back home told me about it. Run by a werewolf for werewolves apparently. Let's take a look inside, can we? I kinda want to see what's it all about." She said.
"'Course, luv." James said and stopped the bike in front of the run down shop.
Inside the same shop Harry, Hermione and Ron were lying on the floor or sitting at the table reading through the books trying to find the answer on how to get them back home. So far they were having no such luck; they found writings about time travel but none on alternate universes yet. But they still had a lot of book to cover.
Remus was not getting any better, Hermione tried all the spells she knew but nothing was helping and Remus was getting tired of sitting around the shop doing nothing. Dan offered to get a hold of a wheel chair for him but Remus sad he'd rather die then ride around in one of those things. Alice, however remained optimistic that he would recover in due time. Remus wouldn't admit it, but he was terrified it was going to get worse and he wouldn't be able to move at all when he woke up one of these days.
There was still a lot of book to go through; Hermione promised Remus that she would find a cure before she left and she wouldn't leave until she found one. He was grateful for that but still doubtful, and he said that if they found a way home she should forget about him and just go.
There was the familiar jungle at the door signalizing that it was being opened and everyone looked up, they were all edgy since their break in at Laura's estate. It was all over the news that she was killed by vampires and they all knew who did it, that part was no secret. They were afraid that her followers or her guards could come by and send them to Azkaban or kill them all on the spot.
"I'll go see who it is." Dan said and walked out of the room, the group held their breath, waiting for the gun shot or a man reading Dan his rights. But it never came. Instead they saw Dan walking into the room with a small smile on. "It's just a few customers, looks like since her death people are starting to come back."
In the 'old days' before Laura's death werewolves would come from all over and shop at Dan's store, it was like a safe house. They knew it was safe, but as Laura's power grew and her laws became worse less went out and more went into hiding like Remus, James Potter, the twins, and many more. But now that she was dead all the rules she enforced were fading, things were getting a little better. But it would be years before a known werewolf could walk in the streets without any prejudice they were doing better.
Lucius smiled, "Great! You know them?"
"I dunno, I think but I haven't seen them in years."
"Lets hear a description." Alice said, "Maybe we know them."
"Um, red head girl and guy with black hair, guy tall girl kinda medium..."
"Oh God." Lucius said and ran out to the front.
Everyone exchanged glances and ran out to see what Lucius was to do, well all except for Remus. He was stuck on the chair.
"Come on, guys!" He yelled and before everyone left, Ron and Draco came back and helped him up placing his arms around their shoulders. His legs couldn't support his own weight in the slightest but he could still move them slightly so it looked like he wasn't leaning totally on the teenagers and lucky for the teens Remus was real light.
Harry stood in the doorway staring with his mouth wide open at Lucius and the people he was talking to.
"James!?" Lucius cried as he walked over to the black haired man.
"Lucius! Jeez, man wot are ya doin' 'ere!?" He said with a big crooked smile.
"I'm a werewolf you know that... but what are you doing here?" He asked after a pause. "You two aren't..." He asked frowning.
"Oh no," James said laughing and Lucius let out a sigh of relief and they both laughed for a moment until James stopped suddenly making Lucius stop too. "Its jus' me."
"Oh, mate, I'm sorry." Lucius said.
"No, it's no problem, really! I lost me house, job, pretty much everythin' I own but I still got me love of my loife righ' 'ere besides me." James said pulling Lily along side him and she smiled as well.
"Yeah, and we're back. Now that Laura's dead James is going to try and get back our old house. You know we never sold it, just abandoned it. BY the way, how's the family?"
"Great!" Came the voice of Draco Malfoy, he was still standing over by the chair where he and Ron had set Remus down.
"Hello Draco!" Lily said. "How's your mother?"
"She's fine, but she's gonna kill dad when we see her."
"Why is that." Lilly asked and that set off the entire explanation of everything. With no help of Harry too, he was still speechless by the door at the sight of his parents.
James nodded and rocked on his heals for a few seconds. "Okay, then, you three are from an alternate universe an' ya 'ad t' steal from the richest most powerful woman in England t' go back 'ome, okay, yes that makes perfect sense."
"I know it sounds crazy but after what you went through all we have you believe some crazy things." Alice said.
"But it's all over now, right?" Lilly asked and they nodded. "Okay, good, that's all I need to hear."
"So, 'oo are all ya little friends?" James asked looking out at the rest of the group.
"Well I think you've met them at one point," he said pointing to the group of werewolves behind him. "Remus, Alice and Dan, all werewolves part of my old group at the camp."
"I've 'eard of them." James said smirking.
"Over here is Hermione, Ron and Harry; are you okay?" Lucius said, Harry was still immobile standing there staring.
"Um... y – yeah, I'm... Yeah, Lucius, I'm just fine." He said stuttering.
"Ya sure ya look loike yer ready t' keel over." James said laughing.
Harry had no idea what to say, he was meeting his parents! Or at least a part of them, he learned that everyone had a little bit of their other selves here but mostly they were very different people. But still, it was his parents, he had to say something. Then a thought dawned upon him, what if they had a son, what if here he was alive somewhere. And alternate reality version of himself.
"Hey, ya know what." Remus said from his seat and the chair breaking the silence and causing Harry to be relieved. "You two look a lot a like." He said pointing to James and Harry." Maybe he shouldn't be so relieved.
"Coincidence, I'm sure." Harry said with a shaky voice.
"Wait a minute." Remus said sitting up in the chair. "You're James Potter."
"Yeah." James said. "I know I am."
"No, your Harry's dad." Remus said smiling. "He told me, when we first met, to get me to believe him. Harry, get the picture out."
He nodded and dug into his pocket, after a couple seconds he pulled out a crumpled, folded picture. He carefully unfolded it, the creases in it had caused the edges to tear slightly. He looked at it for s moment before handing it off to James and Lily.
"It's true," he said. "In my world you guys are my parents, but you're, um, you're dead. You died when I was a little baby and I lived with you're sister and her family." Harry said pointing to Lily.
"Petunia? Oh she would have loved that! Well not the fact I was dead, but she adores babies and kids and all that mushy stuff."
"Not in my world, she's a bit of a bitch, pardon my French." Harry said bluntly. "But you both were very good friends with Remus over there, Sirius Black, he's not a vampire in our world and Peter Pettigrew."
"Peter?" Alice asked.
"You know him?" Hermione asked her.
"Well, no not really but Franks worked as a nurse at an institute for the longest time, he quite after we were together for a bit, but Peter Pettigrew was one of the patients, sweet boy witnessed his parents deaths, afterward was never a bit right in the head." She explained.
"Yeah, and you four were the best of friends, The Marauders, you called yourselves. But you were both killed by Voldemort and now I go to school I live with Sirius and Remus and this is all just really, really weird because I want to met my parents I've always wanted to and now that I am I learn that you may look like my parents but you aren't them. My father was not a werewolf, he did not have a cockney accent. My mother was not a stone cold biker chick." He said referring to the leather that Lily wore.
"Look, Harry, we might not be your parents, we may just be people who happen to look and sound like them. But from what we've seen of you, from what we've learned from talking with you. You seem like a wonderful boy, I would be honored above all else to be your mother and maybe someday I will be your mother, maybe in a few years I'll have a son and I'll name him Harry and I could only pray that he would be as courageous, hardworking, loving and caring as you." Lily said walking over to him and cupping his face.
Harry smiled. "Thanks." He said.
"Don't mention it," she smirked. "And I:m sure James feels the exact same. Don't you, James?"
"Hm? Oh yeah, yeah, defiantly." He said making Lily and Harry smile and laugh at him.
The couple stayed at the place for a few more good hours, the trio went back to their work in the books while Lucius caught up with Lily and James. Heather came by only once, claiming that she forgot something, but she did something that surprised everyone. She gave Ron his watch back, she claimed she stole a better one from a drunken man at the bar but no one saw the replacement one on her wrist.
After another couple hours Hermione screamed causing everyone to look up in shock. Draco came running in from another room where he was with Remus, unfortunately once again Remus got left behind.
"What!? What it is!?" Harry cried standing up and running over to her.
"I found it! I found it!" She exclaimed.
"You found a way back home!?" Ron asked smiling broadly.
"No!" She yelled still ecstatic. "A way to fix Remus!"
"Praise the Lord!" They heard from the other room.
