A/N WOW! So many reviews. Thanks everyone! Sry it took so long! I had a CPT test (passed it!) college here I come! And now to the story. . .
Chapter 5
The Interrogation
Two figures crept into the dark room. Not stopping to let their hearts swell at the sight of their son holding the blond in such a protective way, they gently pried the smalls arms from each other and Sirius lifted the smaller blond one. Before following his lover out, James sat on the bed and reached out, brushing his sons hair out of his eyes. The scar, that was a constant reminder of how he failed to protect his angel, shown bright red. Like it never healed, after all these years. James sighed and said aloud "I may not have been able to protect Lilly, but ill do everything in my power to keep you safe son." Tucking his son in and kissing him on the cheek, like he had done when the boy was 7, and left the room.
Down in the basement they had a training room, this is where they would question Draco. James didn't want to do it, he knew it would hurt the boy, and if he really couldn't remember anything then they would have to keeping giving him the potion every month in the hope that he would. Veritaserum was a strange potion. Just a few drops could make anyone spill anything, if asked the right questions. Fighting the potion could damage ones brain even more. James didn't want to hurt the boy, who he was starting to believe.
Harry could always see the good in people, it was one of his many talents. James smiled remembering when he figured out that him and Sirius were more then "friends".
flashback
"Daddy!!!" yelled a 5 year old Harry. "Daddy we cant!"
James picked up the crying Harry. "Harry what's wrong? I thought you wanted to go? You've always wanted to go to Disney Land."
Harry hiccupped. "Y-yeah but, we cant go without Siri."
Sirius piped up from the back of the flying car, he was putting bags in the trunk. "Ah thank you Harry but this is a father-son thing. I have no place." He smiled and ruffled his Hair.
Harry sniffed. "But. . . You're my daddy to. . ."
Sirius and James stopped and looked at each other. Hearts beating faster and breaths coming quicker James managed to stutter out "W-what are you talking about Harry?"
Harry looked up at him and said "There was a boy in class the other day he said he had two Daddy's. That they lived together and did everything that a mommy and daddy do. But I don't have a mommy. So Sirius is my mommy, and you guys love each other right?" He looked back and forth between the two adults and jumped slightly when James started laughing loudly/
Sirius was standing there opened mouthed. "M-mommy? Ill have you know Harry I am not a women!" He said sticking his tongue out at him. Harry giggled and James just laughed harder.
Sirius broke out in a huge grin and leaned over and kissed James on the mouth then kissed Harry on the head then hugged them both tight. Leaning in to James's ear he whispered "Ill show you how much of a man I am later." The he pulled back and satisfied with his lovers blush he said loudly "Looks like I'm going to Disney land!!!"
Harry giggled and cheered with Sirius. James inwardly groaned and thought 'Great, now I have to watch after two kids'
end flashback
Smiling softly to himself he was torn out of the memory when Sirius placed a gentle hand on his shoulder. "Prongs? Are you okay?"
James nodded. "Just fine Padfoot." He put a hand on top of Sirius's and held is tightly.
"We don't have to do this you know." Sirius said in a lowered voice.
James sighed. "No. . .we do unfortunately." James then squeezed his lovers hand once more then continued into the training room. James was startled when he realized that Dumbledore was already there and Draco was awake and sitting in the plush chair the old man provided. Walking up to the two he knelt down on one knee and spoke. "Have they explained to you what we are doing down here Draco?" Draco nodded shyly. "Now Draco it is very important that you do not resist. We will start with small things just to be sure its working, if you are scared or start to feel uncomfortable in any way all you have to do is say so okay?" Draco nodded again.
Dumbledore the conjured up 3 more chairs and a table. They all situated in and James conjured up some tea. Pouring a glass for Draco he took out a vile of veritaserum and put exactly three drops in the glass handing it to Draco. "Here son, drink this."
Draco looked at the glass nervously but took it none the less. Then taking a deep gulp he downed it in a few gulps.
"Is it working?" The boy asked.
"We will have to wait a few minutes for it to settle in." James poured three more glasses and sipped his own tea quietly. After a few minutes he turned back to Draco.
"How are you feeling?"
"Hungry." Draco answered with no emotion.
Waving his wand, Dumbledore conjured up some biscuits. Draco took one thankfully.
"Better?" James asked.
"Yes."
"Alright, we will start with easy things. What is your name?" James said.
"Draco."
"How old are you?"
"11."
"And who are your parents?"
Draco was quiet for a minute. "I-I don't know."
James raised an eyebrow and pulled out some old news paper clippings of Lucius and Narcissa. "Do you recognize these people, Draco?"
Draco took a look and shook his head. "No."
James's brow furrowed. "Do you know where you are?"
"Godrics hallow."
"Do you remember how you got here?"
"Yes."
Sirius piped up. "Tell us what you remember about how you got here."
Draco looked at him and nodded. "I remember falling and running. Then a pressure, then I was walking. I found a stable with horses in it and I was playing with one when you came in sir. You took me back to the house after the horse nicked my side."
James nodded. "And do you remember anything from before you found your way through the wards?"
Draco's brow furrowed. "I-I remember. . . Very little. I remember being cold and hungry and scared. There was a bad person, a man I think. He didn't like me, I don't think. But then there was another person. She was nice. I also remember eyes."
"Eyes?" James asked.
"Yes."
"Whose eyes?" Draco was quiet. He wrapped his lips around his teethe and sat on his hands. Once he started shaking James said. "You cant fight it Draco. Don't fight it. Its okay you can tell us. Whose eyes Draco?"
Draco took a deep breath and said in a whisper. "Harry's."
James and Sirius gasped slightly. Dumbledore just kept quiet folding his hands in front of his twinkling eyes. James spoke up. "As in my son's eyes?"
"Yes."
"Were you sent here to harm him?"
"I don't remember. All I know is that I don't want to harm him now. . . He's my only friend." A tear slipped from Draco's eyes.
"Okay okay Draco. Shhh. Now lets go back to the women. Do you remember what she looked like?"
"No."
"How did you know her?"
"Im not sure. But she was nice. Not like everyone else."
James sighed. They had already gotten enough information and he could tell he was scaring the small boy. "Okay Draco, we are done."
The boy sighed happy to know that he didn't have to answer any more questions for now. He didn't want to remember. He liked it here, he like Harry and his family. They were nice, warm, and safe. He was afraid that if he remembered they would send him back to that bad place. But then he had a thought. "M-Mr. Potter?"
James head snapped up from the quiet conversation with Dumbledore and Sirius. "Yes, Draco?"
Draco took a deep breath. "Your questioning me because you think I'm going to hurt Harry right?
James tilted his head. "Yes why?"
"Why? Why do you think I'm going to hurt him?"
James sighed. He figured he would have to tell him the truth. "Well Draco, its slightly complicated."
"James don't you think we should wake up your son so he can here this as well?" Dumbledore said.
"No offence professor, but I would rather my son not be subjected to this talk."
"No I want Harry here." Said Draco. "Ill end up telling him anyways."
James sighed. "Fine, lets take this to the kitchen. Sirius will you go wake up Harry?"
They all stood and Sirius hugged James tightly and whispered. "You know you couldn't keep him from the past forever."
"I can try." James whispered defiantly. "But yes. . . I know." James kissed his lover on the cheek and hugged him tighter. He never wanted Harry to know the reason behind him not being home, the reason why he couldn't go out very much and when he did James and Sirius were with him at all times. He didn't want his son to have to love knowing that someone would always be after him, and he really didn't want his little cub to know that one of those possible people would be living with them.
