Chapter Two:
Harry stood in front of his Godfather grinning. He really couldn't help it. He was standing in front of Sirius and not in a room of old broken down junk. It was almost as if a dream really had come true. It was a dream come true.
Sirius had awoke to his mother's screaming, which Harry had hoped to get by her so he could face Sirius in the morning. It seemed okay. Sirius was grinning as wide as he was. Harry took that as a good sign. Chances was good Sirius wouldn't try to send him back.
"What are you doing here in the middle of the night?" Sirius asked.
"I hate it there." Harry answered. That was the truth. They hated him as much as he hated to be there.
"Did they hurt you?" Sirius asked concerned.
"I don't want to talk about them," Harry stated. He was to afraid what Sirius would do. "I just don't to go back, And I'm not going to go back, even if it means that I can't stay with you."
"We'll work something out." Sirius said pulling him into a hug. "We'll worry about that later. I'd run from old tuna too."
"You would?" Harry said pulling back to look at him. Surprised that he wasn't hearing that he should be there for his safety.
"Enough of that." Sirius grinned. "Now tell why you have come. I'm guessing there is another reason that you are here."
"There is something, I wanted to ask you too." Harry murmured.
"Oh?" Sirius asked.
Harry nodded unsure of how to ask.
"About time-travel." He answered.
"Is this something for school?" Sirius asked.
"Not really," Harry answered. "Its a little more personal than that."
"Your parents." Sirius guessed.
Harry nodded. He just hoped Sirius missed them as much as he did. It would be easier to get him to help him.
"There are rules to time-travel." Sirius said slowly."Rules that I can't even break."
"I know, but couldn't there be away to go back in that time and get them to come into this time, without changing history?" Harry asked.
"Without changing history?" Sirius questioned walking over to the fireplace. "For that to happen they would have to be removed right before they got killed, and I do mean right before. But you would have to stay so that doesn't change. Meaning, we need to find out how you could survive the killing curse. Otherwise, you'll save them only to die yourself. Which would change history. You wouldn't be here to go back in time."
Harry saw a big problem in that. "So it can't be done?"
"I didn't say that." Sirius pointed out. "Harry, if you got them out right before death, they would be gone. History wouldn't change because they would come through time. Everyone would think that they was dead. That wouldn't change none. I would still go to prison, that doesn't need changed."
"I just need to figure how to survive the killing curse." Harry muttered.
"There has to be away Harry." Sirius said. "It did happen once before."
"Dumbledore said it was love." Harry said.
Sirius shook his head. "I never believed that. I know she loved you. I know she even died for you, but that wasn't what saved you. Harry, I have saw people die for someone they love, only for that person to die after."
Harry slowly nodded. That made sense if one thought like that. "What do you think it was? A charm of some kind?"
"She was gifted in charms." Sirius said thoughtfully. "She was gifted in a lot of areas."
"What kind do you think it was?" Harry asked,
"Honestly?" Sirius asked
Harry nodded. It wasn't like he wanted him to lie to him.
"Dark magic." Sirius answered.
"Are you serious?" Harry asked.
"Yes, I am." Sirius answered for once very serious.
Harry rolled his eyes. He should had knew better than to ask that.
"Harry, I grew up in a dark household." Sirius said with a smile.
"So you know dark spells?" Harry asked.
"Sense I could talk." Sirius agreed.
"Like Draco." Harry said thinking about the blond.
"Ah, yes my cousin." Sirius said. "I spend a great deal of time with him as Padfoot."
"With Draco?" Harry croaked out.
"Draco and James are somewhat alike and I know you don't want to hear that, but its the truth." Sirius said looking over his Godson.
"My dad and Draco?" Harry asked.
"Draco is a lot like him really." Sirius said glancing around. "He has what it takes to be dark, but the kid isn't. I never thought Luc was either."
"What?" Harry shouted. Was he crazy? He'd have to be. "They are evil."
"No they are not." Sirius remarked. "You need to learn to read between the lines. See things for yourself."
"So you wouldn't care if I became friends with Draco?" Harry asked.
"Not at all." Sirius answered. "Draco would never betray you. Not once he got to know you. Just like I would never betray James. And as for Luc, he did what he had to do. I believe that. His father pushed him in once your in, well your in for life."
"He tried to curse me." Harry pointed out.
"He wouldn't had hit you with it." Sirius said. "The wall yes, but not you."
"You seem sure of this." Harry said.
"I am." Sirius said heading to the library. "Tell me something. Have you heard of him killing anyone?"
"No." Harry answered. He hadn't heard of him killing anyone at all.
"He likes to talk big." Sirius said pulling out a book. "But, I've watched him fight. He doesn't fight to kill. A true dark wizard doesn't care to kill."
"Why is he called a dark wizard?" Harry asked.
"He is a Death Eater Harry. His father was dark. If you had been born in that family you would been considered dark." Sirius answered flipping out the book.
"Thats hardly fair." Harry said eyeing the book.
Sirius looked up at him with a knowing look. "Believe me I know. I lived it."
Harry nodded. "What are you looking for?"
"A spell." Sirius answered.
"Wouldn't mum already know the spell?' Harry asked. "I mean she was the one that used it."
Sirius nodded. "Yes, she would. That wasn't what I was looking for."
"What are you looking for?" Harry asked.
"Its a spell for a port key. Only it is made special for time-traveling." Sirius answered.
"Why is it so special?" Harry asked watching him flip pages.
"It will bring you home in seconds instead of the time it takes for spells." Sirius answered. "That is what they will need. If they agree to come. You will have to leave it with them."
"Why wouldn't they?" Harry asked.
"They would have to leave you." Sirius answered. "I know them Harry. If they come, it will be at the last minute. You'll have to leave them the port key. They will have to decide."
Harry hadn't thought about them staying. He had wanted them to come back when he did.
"Found it." Sirius said happily.
"Port keys in time-travel." Harry read over his shoulder. "Has to be made at the new moon. Can only be worn by the wearer once."
Sirius nodded. "Dark Magic comes at a price. It will take some of their magic. Not enough to where they can tell, but still it does."
"Does all dark magic take from peoples magic?" Harry asked.
"No, if that was the case we'd have no dark wizards." Sirius answered heading to his mothers picture. Who was for once not yelling, but listening.
"Time-travel?" She asked looking at the book in his hands.
"What is the best way for him to get there?" Sirius asked. "A time-turner wouldn't work would it?" "Not if he plans to go back to the Potter's murders." She answered.
"Could Dumbledore be right?" Harry asked. "About it being love?"
"Parents love their children and love can do many great things. Love can not however save you from a killing curse." She replied.
"So it was a charm?" Sirius asked.
"A spell really." She answered. "Nobody even knows for sure that he was given the killing curse. There was some talk about that. Only one was in room other than Harry. He knows the truth. Now for his scar. That is a dark scar caused by dark magic."
"Could it be from the spell Lily placed on him." Sirius asked.
She smiled at this. "No. That spell was placed on him here, in this very house. It was placed on him the same night Lucius cast it on Draco. James Potter was the caster not Lily Evans."
"James?" Sirius called out.
"It took one of pureblood magic." She explained. "It was placed here on that very Halloween."
"Was my dad friends with the Malfoys?" Harry asked.
"Cousins." She explained.
"I didn't know that." Harry said looking at Sirius.
Sirius nodded.
"But I thought her family was all I had left." Harry said wondering what else he didn't know.
"Harry," She said surprising gentle. "That man has kept many things from you. All I promise in his mind is for the greater good. I don't think he does it out of evil."
"How is the best way to get him there?" Sirius asked.
"He cannot be seen by nobody, but them. That is important. Use the last spell in that book. It will keep him there twenty-four hours. That is enough time."
"Then we have to wait until Halloween." Harry said trying not to pout.
"No you won't. Time doesn't work that way. You can go in two days before the murder in their time Harry. When they come here, it will be in your time." She answered with a smirk.
Harry smiled at Sirius. "When is the new moon?"
Sirius laughed. "Tomorrow, which means they can be home in three days."
"If they will come." Harry pointed out.
"They will come. Now if you close my curtin, I'd like to get some rest." She instructed.
Harry glanced over at Sirius. "Was she just nice to me?"
Sirius closed the curtin. "Scary was it? It was for me. I really thought I was going to have to find away to get to Lucius. I never dreamed she'd be nice about it. She takes those spells."
"Why would my dad cast that spell here?" Harry asked. "Wasn't everyone against each other then? Even if they were cousins."
"Lucius was Jame's contact like Severus was Lily's." Sirius whispered.
Harry grinned wondering just who Sirius was afraid would over hear him.
"That is something else that Dumbledore has kept to himself," Sirius explained.,"He never would give Lucius the benefit of doubt. He did Severus."
"Why?" Harry asked.
"I don't know," Sirius answered, "He didn't do anything when I went to prison. I think it is because Malfoys like the Blacks are dark."
"That is wrong." Harry said wondering
"Wrong or not," Sirius smiled, "That is how things are."
