A/N: wow! bigger turn out! thanks all, keep the feedback comin! :)

and actually Sakura, I already have that covered, dont worry :) (she suggested Harry D having Harry P's name changed, he's just gonna call him Junior guys, so it'll get less confusing soon I promise!)

Harry awoke to a loud wailing in the early rays of light. Suddenly alert, he jumped to his feet. Immedietly he realised the baby Harry was not in his arms, and instead he was floating right near the window, wailing. A hooded figure stood in the window, arms outstretched to grab baby Harry.

"HARRY!"

Dresden lunged and grabbed th baby, holding him close to his chest and pulling him inside. The hooded person made a mad dash to escape. Dresden hurried outside, but it was too late. Somehow they'd just... vanished.

"Dammit..." Dresden rubbed his face and went back inside. He ran a diagnostic spell over Harry, who seemed to be doing fine.

Baby Harry babbled incoherently as his uncle made sure there were no spells, hexes, or curses on him.

"at least youre not hurt. Whoever that was is going to pay if they get back here..."

"Bwah!" his nephew squealed.

Harry pretended that he was agreeing.

"Alright alright. Hungry then? I guess we're awake for the day now."

Baby Harry watched as his uncle left the room to make his bottle. He squealed happily when he came back and reached out to him.

Dresden couldn't help but smile. Hey, atleast someone's excited to see me!

After feeding, burping, bathing, and dressing his nephew, Dresden decided it'd be a good idea to get the kiddo acquainted with the various friends in his life. Maybe they'd be able to give some insight or help or something.

He headed outside, preparing to go into the Blue Beetle, his beaten up old VW Bug that was more rainbow now than blue, but thought better of it.

"Yeah... taking you places in that piece would probably constitute as child endagerment. We can walk. Exercise is good!"

"Wah!" his nephew cheered in agreement.

Dresden grinned and walked down the street, deciding to head to Murphy's place. She had the day off and was probably relaxing at home. What's more relaxing than a recently orphaned baby?

Eventually they made it, though it took a lot longer than expected. Dresden knocked, and a moment later Murphy opened the door.

Her blonde curls were covered by a baseball cap. She wore a lose t-shirt and jean shorts. In one hand was a beer and the other a gun, just in case I guess.

"Hey Dresden what- What the hell is that?!"

"A baby, Murph. Can we come in? My dogs are barking!"

She moved aside and let them in.

"Harry, where on earth did you get a baby?"

"Long story. Wanna hear it? It's a good one!"

He sat on her couch comfortably, and his nephew snuggled up against his chest.

"Uh, I guess."

"Great. So this kid is my nephew. His name is Harry, too"

She snorted at that but kept quiet, listening to her friend with interest.

"Anyway, he's my brothers kid. Thing with my brother is a whole 'nother can of worms. Him and his wife lived in Britain, where a dangerous Sorcerer had been gaining power"

"This is sounding like a book."

"Yea, but it's true. So, evil guy is after my brother and nephew. My brother, James, was tough and openly against this evil dude. James' friend tells evil dude where he lives and dude shows up, kills James, his wife and tries to kill this kid here. Somehow the kiddo survived. This old chick calls me, tells me what happened, then comes over with a giant man, and an obscenely old guy and drop the kid with me. All this happened last night. The End!"

Karrin stared at him, gaping. Eventually she found her words.

"I'm so sorry Dresden.. about your brother and his wife."

"I'm coping. More worried about this munchkin here. I tend to live an unstable lifestyle..."

Harry made it a point to not tell Murphy about this morning.

"And I'll have to explain all this to him as soon as he's old enough to understand."

"It'll be hard. But I'm here for you, and I bet your Knight friend will be too."

Harry grinned and nodded.

"So anyways, it took forever to get here! Can we hang out for a little? Pleeeaaase?"

Both Harrys gave her big, pouty, puppy-dog eyes. Naturally she caved.

Groaning, she set her beer down.

"Fine. But let's do something out back. Kid's need fresh air."

Karrin led the way into her backyard. It was adorable. Neatly cut lawn, big wooden fence, and a little garden.

Since Harry likes living, he decided to keep quiet. Instead he sat on the ground and set his nephew in his lap. Murphy sat across from them, which the baby took to mean he could crawl over and snuggle on her lap.

She looked flustered when he did that. Baby Harry smiled a toothless smile at her and started babbling nonsense. Karrin relaxed eventually and listened. She gave occaisonal "oh?"'s and "mhm"'s, as if they were having a conversation. Baby Harry loved it.

The three stayed outside like that for ours, talking and playing. They went in for lunch, luckily Harry brought baby Harry's bag so he had his food too. After lunch Harry had his nap, so the adults took to talking.

"It's confusing having two Harry's"

"Yeah. I think im just gonna call him Junior."

"What do I call him then?"

"I 'unno. That's your thing" He grinned at her, which made her roll her eyes.

Eventually they had to leave. "Junior" was still asleep, so Harry held him gently. Before they left, Murphy made sure to remind him that she'd be there if they needed anything.

"There's a baby involved in your idiocy now. I'm Chicago PD, so I'll have both your backs covered now."

Harry grinned and thanked her before walking home. It had been a really good day.

Until a shadow jumped out of an alley and attacked.
