Hey there I'm Harry Smith

"Hu Dumbledore?" finished Harry "Yes Harry?" asked Dumbledore "To be honest I thought you were bringing the marauders and Lilly" Harry said with a confused face, this just made Dumbledore chuckle "Am I really that predictable with my actions? Well the marauders are just outside as is Lilly Evans but first, I wanted to tell you a few precautions and rules while you're here" "How long will I be here sir anyway I need to get back! The war-" "Harry please calm down, I will figure out a way to get you back to your normal time but, as of this moment I can't think of any way to do so understand?" Harry replayed with a small nod Man this times Dumbledore seems a bit odd, maybe it's just me. "As I was saying, I have explained to your father, James, as well as the other marauders and Lilly that you are Harry Smith and that you are an exchange student from Rumble's Wizarding School for Half-Bloods and Muggle-borns in America, and that the reason you called James 'dad' is because he does look like your dad, as for Remus that you call Prefects Professors in your 'old' school. They are under the impression that you have just moved here because of 'family problems' to live with your aunt and uncle, they will also be helping you in finding your way about the school and make you feel welcome, can you keep to that story?" finished Dumbledore with a stern, serious voice okay ether Dumbledore is having a bad day or he just softened up in the future "Yes Professor" answered Harry "Good" Dumbledore replayed "I take the liberty to make you a timetable here it is as well there are robes along your other necessary items they are by your bed in the Gryffindor tower now run along I have a lot of work ahead of me" as Harry was walking off to the door he heard Dumbledore say "Enjoy the past as long as you can Harry Potter" in a strange tone so Harry acted like he didn't hear it, but it stayed stuck in his mind what did Dumbledore mean? He thought a bit about it until he saw his parents and the rest of the marauders.

"Hey Smith!" called out James "Over here come on!" at the sound of James voice Harry gave a light jog over to him, once over there he was immediately pounced on by Sirius who shouted in his ear "WELCOME TO HOGWARTS!" "No need to make him deaf Black!" said a stern voice which belonged to one Lilly Evans "Sorry about Black here, he's acts like a hyper-active puppy most of the time" at that comment the Marauders gave a little funny smile of man she is so right, literally "I'm Lilly Evans by the way, nice to meet you" she said while holding out her hand to shake it, Harry took it and said "Nice to meet you Lilly I'm Harry Po-Smith" man close call. "Potter introduce yourselves" "Okay Lilly-Flower" that earned him a whack across the head, but with an unmistakable blush "Ow, alright Hey I'm James Potter, this hyper-active pup (in a sarcastic voice) is Sirius Black the prefect here is Remus Lupin and the guy with the rat face is Peter Pettigrew". It took all of Harry's will power just not to strangle the guy and he had to remind himself this is the past and he's James's friend don't kill him "Hey it's nice to meet you all" said Harry shaking everyone's hand in hello. "Well we better show you around Hogwarts" said James "come o-hu" around the corner came a pasty faced 17yr old he looks like Neville "James, Lilly Professor McGonagall is looking for you head dutys" "oh yeah we forgot thanks Frank we'll be right there" said Lilly, Harry felt a pang of guilt and sorrow, he knew what is going to happen to him. "Okay Lilly you might want to hurry you're 15 minutes late, she's having a fit" "Damn, think you can take Harry on a tour of Hogwarts guys?" asked James "You got it James, let's go Harry we'll show you the most important room first" "What's that the dinner hall" everyone looked at him in surprise "You are so right, but how did you guess?" asked a stunned Sirius "Well um, you just had a look of delight in your eye like you're thinking about food it looked a little like my godfather… Shall we go?" everyone noticed Harry's discomfort when he talked about his godfather so decided to leave it alone, but the marauders would investigate about it later. "Yeah lets go this way Harry" announced Sirius and then everyone went off in their respected directions. Still they were all wondering, what was up about his godfather?

While on their way to the Great Hall

"So Harry, what was your old school like?" asked Remus "Well I was a little like this, an old castle not much else" Harry answered "What kind of sports did you play?" asked Sirius "Quidditch" Harry said oh too quickly "Awesome!" exclaimed Sirius "I love quidditch, best sport in the world do you want to go over to the field after we show you around the school?" "That would be great" replayed Harry with a small smile, but to the marauders it was something they didn't expect to see because when they looked into his eyes they saw a battle, a battle no-one could understand.

At the Quidditch field

"Here use this" said Peter "it's a cleensweep" "Thanks Peter" thanked Harry with a forced smile while still in his head he was still telling himself don't kill him this isn't the traitor wormtail this is Peter Pettigrew marauder friend. "Come on Harry lets fly!" shouted Sirius "Coming!" Harry shouted right back. Once Harry took off into the air he felt relieved and happy performing several difficult tricks like the 150ft dive and the loopscrew (looping around while turning to avoid the bludgers) "WOW! WHERE IN MERLINS BEARD DID YOU LEARN THAT!" exclaimed an excited (and somewhat scary) happy Sirius "In my old school, we use that move to avoid bludgers that got past the beaters and in what was my case to keep an eye on the snitch" "hey you know it could be your case again if you wanted it to" "How I can't be as good as your seeker?" "Well our seeker left last so, you can play the try-outs are next week, James is the captain, he plays chaser, and he really doesn't want to put this kid um what was his name? Oh yeah Sparks on please try-out we'll win for sure this year" "Sure I love Quidditch and I'll be proud to play here if I didn't my dad would…" said Harry suddenly stopping at the mentioned at his dad. "Harry are you alright? Is there something wrong with your dad?" asked a concerned Remus "You could say that" said Harry while looking to the sky "I'd rather not talk about it" Harry looked down as he said this "Okay Harry but if you ever need to talk about it you can always ask me" "Yeah thanks Remus" then there was an uncomfortable silence only to be broken by the dinner bell. "Let's go FOOD TIME! I'm famished!" exclaimed a excited Sirius while running to the hall like he really needed the toilet only to be followed by Peter shouting "Wait for me!" "Come on Harry" said Remus "before they eat the table out" a small chuckle came from Harry "Yeah lets go" said Harry lifting his head while rubbing his eyes only to reveal a tear ridden face. While Harry was walking off Remus was thinking What type of 'family problems' does he have? Then everyone was at the dinner hall all eating except Harry who was just picking at his food "I'm not really hungry I'm going up to the common room see you" said Harry "Do you remember where it is?" asked a concerned Lilly "Yeah bye" replayed Harry. As Harry walked off James asked "What's up with him?" "Well he was crying earlier" said Remus "And when did this happen? What did you do?" demanded Lilly and James they were both surprised and blushed "Well I'm only worrying because he has family problems and none of you should be mentioning or asking about it" Lilly said quickly, she wasn't going to admit she felt an immediate connection with him, she felt like a parent and didn't know why. "Yeah and I never forgive my friends making other Gryffindor upset it's not our way" said James also covering up that he feels for this boy as a son. "It wasn't us we were at the Quidditch field and he is impressive Prongs best I've ever seen, hell (everyone is surprised that Remus swore) I would say he rivals you, and he said that he would be proud to play for us as seeker, then he was talking about his dad and it just got him upset so don't go blaming us it was him and Prongs when he was crying I didn't hear any snuffles or see him try to catch his breath and I was standing right next to him" everyone is surprised (especially the marauders Remus had heightened senses since he was a werewolf and him not hearing or seeing anything made this very surprising) "Man this kid must have it bad IVT guys" said Sirius "IVT? What does that mean?" asked a suspicious Lilly "Not telling" said all the marauders in a sing-song voice "Fine" said a defeated and annoyed Lilly no point in arguing with them you'll never get it out of them. They ate the rest of the meal in silence until they had to go back to bed once Lilly left James announced "Its InVestigation Time" (IVT)
