Harry looked up at his Uncle. "How come you're not upset about this?"
Fabian was taken by surprise with the question. "Why would I be upset about the test results?"
Harry gaped at the man. "You just found out your husband has a son you never knew about. I would have thought you'd be angry with him and with..."
Fabian cut him off before he could continue. "With you? No. Harry there is a very good reason I'm not upset with your or my husband right now."
Harry was growing more confused by the moment. "What do you mean? What reason?"
Fabian took a deep breath and after looking at his belly, he found the words. "I'm not upset because you're my son."
Harry wasn't sure he had heard him right. He couldn't have. "Your son? How?"
Before he could answer though a voice came from the door. "What do you mean he is your son?"
Fabian turned to see his husband in the doorway. "Do you remember the last year before I was captured and you were thought dead?"
Regulus came to his side. "Of course I remember, it was the start of this nightmare. We barely got to see each other."
Fabian nodded. "I found out I was pregnant after we were forced to separate. I was already nearly four months gone and didn't know until the baby began to kick."
Harry shook his head. "I don't understand this."
Severus came to his side and sat down. "Be patient with them Harry. Let them talk and you'll have your answers."
Fabian started again. "Albus eventually found out but swore he would keep it a secret but I didn't trust him and Gideon took me to a safe house when I got too far along. Someone I thought I could trust showed up when I went into premature labour."
Regulus was surprised. Surely Gideon would have done anything to protect his twin and nephew. "Who? Gideon wouldn't have told anyone he didn't trust."
"Arthur." Fabian said. "We didn't know how in league with Albus he was. I was alone with Arthur as Gideon went off on a mission. A healer was brought and I passed out. When I woke I was told my son had died. I was barely eight months and for a male pregnancy, I knew there had been little chance. I believed Arthur."
Regulus took his husband to him. "I don't understand. I mean why didn't you ever tell me you lost or thought you lost a baby?"
Fabian shook his head. "We only saw each other one more time and I didn't want you to go after Albus or Arthur. I thought I was protecting you."
Harry spoke up again. "I don't understand. If you thought I was dead became of premature birth, why did you think Regulus would go after them?"
Fabian turned to Harry. "Gideon did. He thought it suspicious there was no body. Then he spotted Arthur with Albus more and more and became suspicious."
Regulus looked at Severus. "You were close to Lily, I mean is this possible?"
Severus sighed. "I wouldn't have thought she'd be a part of such a thing. She was pregnant, I know that. She must have lost her baby or Albus switched it."
Harry couldn't believe this. "Are you telling me that the real Harry Potter is either dead or out there some where living some one else's life all together?"
Fabian nodded. "It is more likely the baby died. James blood adopted you. If his son was switched, he'd never have done that. He'd never had to alter your genes."
Harry stared at his Uncles, his fathers, what ever they were. "So I was yours, then I was James and then Sirius kind of adopted me? Whose son am I actually?"
Regulus came over."You're ours by birth. Your genes though have been altered to be a Potter. I have a feeling my big brother might have known, why he did the blood rite to pass his title and power to you."
Harry was confused. "I need to know. I need to know about the Potters and about Sirius. I need to know the truth."
Fabian was aching for his son. "There are only two people alive since Gideon and Sirius died who might be able to tell you. Arthur and Albus."
Harry stood. "Fine. I'm going to find Arthur and find out what he knows."
Regulus stopped him. "We already lost you once Harry, we can't risk loosing you again. It's too dangerous."
Harry would not be stopped. "I need the truth. You can't throw this at me and expect me not to. I'm going."
Severus stood. "I will contact Moody and have it arranged for Arthur to be brought to a safe place. If you insist, the order will be with you."
Harry thanked him and turned back to his new fathers. "I don't want to hurt either of you but I need to know."
Fabian smiled. "You're my son and I love you as much as your little sister inside me. If you need the whole story, I understand."
Harry turned and left the room. He knew he was upsetting both the men he called his uncles and learned were likely his fathers but he couldn't believe it until he had the entire story. This was just so messed up with the blood adoptions and the tests. He had spent too much time as Harry Potter to just throw it aside.

Harry stood on the doorstep of Grimmauld place the next day. Moody, Lucius and a few others had tracked down Arthur and some how convinced him to come speak. Harry didn't want to know what powers of coercion they had used.
Severus stopped him. "Are you sure you want to do this? You know the test was right, and you might find out more that you'll be hurt with."
Harry shook his head. "I need to know more then ever for our daughter's sake, the truth. I need to know who I am. My entire life seems to have been a lie."
Severus shook his head. "No matter how you cane by it you are Harry Potter. James blood adopted you. Like Sirius was able to make you Lord Slytherin, you are still Lord Potter and Gryffindor due to that adoption."
Harry didn't care about his titles right now. "I know that those are important for this war but right now I need to know who I am. I need to understand all of this."
Severus knew there was a chance Harry was going to be even more hurt but he knew Harry was not taking no for an answer. "Okay Harry. I'm with you on this."
Harry took his husband's hand as he walked into the house. "Thank you Sev."
They went into the kitchen where he found Lucius and Moody alone except for Arthur who he could tell was bound to the chair by some kind of magical binds, as he looked so irate Harry knew he'd have run if he was not bound.
Moody turned to Harry. "Your husband has explained and I must say I was bit surprised. We have given him veriserum moments ago. It should kick in soon."
Lucius came over to him. "You know no matter what we find out, that you're still the same young man we all care about. Nothing is going to change that"
"Nothing cub." Remus' voice came from behind.
Harry threw himself at his godfather who held him tight. "Do you know anything about this?"
Remus shook his head. "I was away a lot before you were born. I know Lily was pregnant but you were born at home. I don't believe they knew though."
Harry knew Remus would do anything to think the best of his friends. "I hope you're right. They might not be my parents but I hope I can still trust them.
Remus held tight to him one more moment. "Remember what ever you hear, they did love you and they were willing to die for you when Voldemort attacked."
Moody signalled that they were ready. "It seems the potion has taken affect Harry. You can ask the man anything and he'll answer."
Harry turned to look at the man he once considered a father figure. "Arthur, I want you to tell me the truth. Who am I really?"
Arthur laughed at the question. "Really? Legally Harry Potter. But before that you were my wife's nephew, Gideon Sirius Black if I recall correctly."
Harry was shocked to learn that he had been known as something else. "I want you to tell me the truth. How did I come to be Harry James Potter?"
Arthur sneered at him. "You want the truth do you? Do you really think you can handle what I'm about to tell you? It might make your perfect world crumble."
Harry was for a moment unsure but he knew he had to have the truth. "My world has already crumbled. I deserve the truth kept from me all of this time."

Fabian and Remus sat in the library back at the manor with a shocked Molly and her sons sitting across from them. He had owed his sister the truth about his child and had no idea how she would react.
Molly covered her mouth. "Arthur took your son from you and told you that he was dead? I never believed he'd do something like that."
Bill put a hand on his mother's shoulder and turned to his Uncle. "Are you sure? You said the baby was quite premature, he might have died."
Fabian shook his head. "I thought so but Gideon was suspicious of the missing body and when we ran the paternity test it proved Regulus was Harry's father."
Regulus nodded. "I have only ever been with one person in my life. That baby your Uncle lost was the only possible offspring I have. He is that missing baby."
Molly began to cry. "I was pregnant with Ron. Lily was in and out of the hospital, complications. I always thought it was odd she had given birth at home."
Fabian stopped her. "Don't blame yourself, none of us could have known. I should have believed Gideon when I had the chance and told someone else as well."
Charlie didn't understand. "But why? Why steal your son and pass him off as dead? I mean he was taking a huge risk to have the baby raised by the Potter family."
Regulus wished he had an answer. "We don't know. That is why Harry went to confront your father. Hopefully he comes back with some answers."
Molly reached out for her brother. "I'm so sorry your baby was taken from you. You know Harry will come back here and need you."
Fabian wasn't so sure. "I don't know no matter what Arthur says, if you're right. He's always thought himself James Potter's son, how will he handle being ours?'
Reguluus took his husband into his arms. He wished he could offer him more comfort but he had his doubts too. Harry had loved Sirius like a dad, it had been easier for him to think Sirius and Lily may have had an affair, but this? Harry was legally a Potter but he was also Gideon Black. Would he want them?
