The Imposter- Chapter Two: A new Beginning

"Flying Indoors, Destruction of school property, Disrespecting your Elders… I don't know which is Worse!" Lily ranted pacing back and forth in Front of the Headmasters desk. Headmaster Dumbledore sat at his desk, Severus and Minerva on either side of him. James, Jimmy, and Gia were sat in front of her like children waiting for their punishment.

"Mom," Gia began, hoping to quell her Mother's anger.

Lily shot her a warning glare, "Don't Georgia."

Gia sank down in her seat miserably.

James leaned forward nervously, "Lily love, I don't think-"

"I. Blame. YOU, James Anthony Potter!" Lily bellowed angrily, "You're too lenient always laughing at the trouble they cause, you're their Father James, Help me out here!"

Lily paused in her pacing pinching the bridge of her nose. "I need help James."

James winced guilty, sinking slightly in his seat. Severus, from his place next to the Headmaster, smirked smugly at the chastised man.

"Mom," Jimmy tried, only to be silenced with a stern look.

Lily rubbed her temples tiredly, "Professor McGonagall, If you would be so kind, as to show my children to the Dormitory they'll be staying in until their sorting?"

"Call me Minerva dear, and it would be my pleasure," McGonagall ushered the teens out of the room quietly closing the door behind them. Severus nodded stiffly at the Headmasters dismissive nodded and followed them out.

The Headmaster cleared his throat pinning the two former Gryffindors with a firm look. "I'm not usually one to interfere as you know, but I do hope that's not how these situations are normally handled."

Lily and James shifted uncomfortably, under the Headmasters stern look.

"If you recall the speech I use to give at the beginning of nearly every year when you were in school, 'strength in times of crises. Unity in times of strife-'

"That is the key to a happy life," James finished sighing, "Your right, I'm sorry Lily. I guess raising the twins on our own… I always thought we'd at least have our parents to go to if we ever needed advice, I was scared of making a mistake, of being a horrible father."

Lily sighed sitting next to him and taking his hand, "James, the twins love you, I love you. You could never be a terrible Father, but I need you to help me here. They take after their Father after all," She smiled weakly brushing raven strands out of his eyes.

James groaned burying his face in his hands, "We'll be gray haired and bedridden by forty-two."

"Love I don't think we'll last that long," Lily teased, smiling softly.

The Headmaster cleared his throat again, "For curiosities sake… is my school going to survive?"

James and Lily shared a nervous look as the Headmaster chuckled lightly.

Gia and Jimmy sat quietly in their temporary dormitory waiting for their parent's arrival.

"Do you think their yelling at each other again?" Gia asked quietly.

Jimmy shrugged, "Probably, I wouldn't doubt it."

Gia sniffled slightly, "How do you think the others are doing?"

"I don't know G," Jimmy snapped, rubbing his face in frustration. He sighed when he saw his sister's distressed expression. "They're tough… they'll survive."

Gia sighed slowly, "I don't think they plan on taking us home," she admitted after a moment.

"I don't either," Jimmy agreed standing from his spot on the recliner and joining his sister on the couch. "I'm worried about Isaac and Caleb."

Gia leaned heavily into her brother, "Me too, and the twins," she sighed.

"Allen will protect them," Jimmy murmured pulling her into his side tightly, protectively.

Gia laughed weakly, "How he can barely take care of himself?...Do you think we should tell Mom and Dad?"

"They won't listen, they're too busy ripping each other's heads off, besides they'll never believe us." Jimmy sighed. "We'd just be accused of lying. And what are we going to say, our friends are being abused?"

Gia sighed, "You're right, we'll just pray for them, and do what we can from here."

James and Lily were just finishing up with the Headmaster when Remus Lupin slipped in with a somber expression on his face.

"Rem, is everything alright? Is it the twins?" The two parents stood quickly looking worried.

Remus held up a placating hand, "Sort of, but more to do with some of their friends."

"Are they still complaining about their friends not being here?" Lily sighed in annoyance, "They have their own families. And-"

"Lily… you should hear this," Remus interrupted quietly, "Headmaster may I borrow your Pensive for a moment?"

The Headmaster nodded grimly, standing to fetch his pensive.

The four adults gathered around the desk as Remus extracted the memory, "I don't think they knew I was in the other room, Sirius and I had been cleaning it up for them. As your aware those dormitories hadn't been used in nearly a century. Well… we heard this."

Remus dropped the Memory in and soon the four were being whisked away.

~~(After a trip into the pensive)~~

"Poor Caleb and Isaac!" Lily gasped fighting tears.

James was leaning against the wall heavily, "They don't feel like they can talk to us. All that about Allen, and the girls, Lily they've practically been living at our house for the last eight years how could we have missed all this?"

"I want to file for guardianship James," Lily whispered staring at the wall, tears running down her cheeks.

James hesitated, "Can we really handle that Lil, seven teenagers?"

"James they need us," Lily pleaded, turning to look at her husband, "We can't turn our backs on them… not us too. Like you said they basically lived with us for eight years! They're our kids too James, we'd want someone to do it for our kids if they could wouldn't we?"

James stared helplessly into his wife's eyes before nodding once, "I'll hire the best lawyers I can, we'll bring our kids home."

Lily smiled happily before flinging herself into James' arms. "And this time I'm on your side Lily, we'll help them together, as a team." Lily gave a shuddering sigh, her smile both happy and sad as James stroked her hair. This was the man she missed all these years, it felt like she was finally starting to get him back, all it took was coming home.

Sorry for the delay but I wanted to put something up. More to come soon! Hopefully I can get another chapter up in the next week or so.
