"Moony, would you just look at him?"
"Padfoot, lets just wake him and get going."
"I need a picture first." Sirius poofed a camera into his hand and started taking random pictures.
"You have your pictures now lets go," Lupin said shaking Harry.
Harry turned over onto his back, sat up and reached for his glasses. As soon as he out them on, Sirius snapped another picture which blinded Harry, "Go away, Padfoot."
Sirius smiled, "Come on lover boy. We have to get going before the kids start to wake up."
Harry put his arm around Ginny again and closed his eyes, "I'm tired. Can't we wait."
Sirius ripped back the blankets and Harry sat up, "Fine."
Sirius and Lupin left the room as Harry wrapped the blankets around Ginny, "Harry, where are you going?"
Harry froze, "I'm going to be gone for awhile with Sirius and Lupin. I'll be back though." Harry kissed Ginny on the check and got dressed and ready in record time. When he came out of the bathroom Ginny was sitting up waiting for him. "Ginny go back to sleep."
"Where are you going?" Ginny asked once again. "Please tell me."
Harry sighed and sat next to her, "I'm going to go do some private training with Sirius and Lupin and I'm trying to change something. I'll be back don't worry. Go have fun today."
Ginny looked him in the eyes and she kissed him, "Please come back to me alive."
"I will, I promise," Harry kissed her one last time, before grabbing his things and walking downstairs. "Sirius, Lupin lets go."
They stood outside the gate to the house and Harry looked up at his window and saw Ginny staring out looking at him.
Sirius took hold of his arm and disapparated with Harry. When Harry's feet found ground again, he stared up a house he never saw before.
"Prongslet, welcome to my house. The Sirius Estate," Sirius smiled.
Harry never saw a house a big as this. It was in the middle of green, green grass and that's all you could see. The first thing that caught Harry's attention was that it was made of nothing but stone. Everything on the castle was stone. It also had windows, lots and lots of windows. Harry thought that if you ever wanted to go and see a castle other then Hogwarts this would be the one. It looked like there was more than fifty tall pointy towers around the castle, that's how big it was. The house was overall a big house and Harry wonder what it looked like on the inside.
When Harry walked inside he noticed how big it was and how much more roomy it was. The was two sets of stairs going against the both sides of the walls going up to the second floor. He noticed that you could either go to the right, left or straight. Harry followed Sirius who went to the right.
That way led to the living room. In there, there was armchairs and couches that were circled around a fireplace all on wood floors. On the tables and hanging on the walls were other kinds of knickknacks. On the walls there were torches for light and tapestries. They then followed a hallway to another opening. It was the dining room.
The dining room had a long rectangular table big enough for at least twenty people. On top of the table was no tablecloth but candles and above the table on the walls were more torches and again wood floors.
Sirius sat at the head of the table and Harry took one next to him, across from Lupin. "This is your house, Padfoot?"
"Yep, the Sirius Estate," Sirius smiled.
"Why did you buy this big of a house?" Harry wondered.
"I didn't buy," Sirius smiled. "I built it. Well, I had people by the names of Prongs and Moony help me build it! Isn't it awesome?"
Harry smiled and looked around again, "It is!"
Sirius looked happy to be here again, "I'll show you the rest later. We should talk about the trip first."
"Okay so how are we going to do this?" Harry asked.
"Okay, first what is our main objective of this trip?" Lupin asked.
"To save my parents," Harry said. "I want to have them and I want as many people fighting this war. We are going to need help."
Lupin sighed, "Okay well saving your parents will be kind of a hard task."
"Also," Harry said. "I think that if we can destroy some of the Horcruxes back than is so I have less to worry about when we come back."
"Okay well, we have to make sure that what ever we do we don't mess with the future," Lupin said. would
Harry started, "Well, we only have to worry about five of them. Two are already destroyed, remember? The diary and the ring. We only to worry about the snake, the Hufflepuff Cup, the Necklace, then Ravenclaw's and Gryffindor's."
"Okay and when we do get these, how do we destroy them?" Sirius asked.
Harry sighed, "Either with venom for a snake or the sword of Gryffindor."
"I think the sword be the easiest," Sirius said.
"And how do you expect us to get it?" Lupin asked.
"Well," Sirius smiled. "It's in Dumbledore's office, so all we have to do is walk in and take it and walk back out. It isn't hard."
"Padfoot, Hogwarts is closed for the summer," Lupin said.
"So? They don't leave!" Sirius replied.
"And how do you possible know that?" Harry asked.
"Prongs and I visited once," Sirius smiled. "We got a couple of detentions from it but still."
"That's actually sounds fun," Harry smiled. "So now we have to figure out what which Horcruxes we can find and destroy without messing up this future. The diary can't because I destroy that in second year, the ring is destroyed in sixth year because that's how I learn about them. We can't do the necklace because Dumbledore and I also do that during sixth year. And we can't kill the snake because of Arthur and what happens in fifth year. So that leaves the cup, and then Ravenclaw's and Gryffindor's."
"What does Ravenclaw and Gryffindor have that is a Horcruxe?" Lupin asked.
"I don't know," Harry said. "I just want to save my parents. How are we going to do this?"
Lupin folded his hands in front of him, "We have to get them to believe that it's us and not an imposter, first. Sirius you have your animagus, but Harry and I have nothing. They are going to have to believe us."
"How can we do that though?" Harry asked.
"Well, I know that nicknames," Lupin said, rubbing his temples. "I need to know something that only we know."
Sirius smiled, "I know something."
'Something else, Padfoot," Lupin said. "That's childish and immature."
"How many other people know about it though?" Sirius asked.
"Know what?" Harry asked. "Tell me."
Sirius looked at Harry and laughed, "Prongs' favorite thing to sing."
Harry just looked at Sirius, "And what would that be?"
"T-I-double G-ER. That's Tigger," Sirius laughed.
Harry looked like he just got slapped in the face, "Why?"
"Tigger was your favorite character when you were a baby," Sirius smiled. "Prongs would sing it and it would make you laugh. No one else knows."
"That's something I didn't need to know about my dad," Harry shook his head. "Is there anything else we could possibly do to get them to believe?"
"Well, we could wait till the full moon comes around," Lupin said.
Sirius stood up, "I had a thought."
"Wow, that's a surprise!" Harry smiled, jokingly. "You never have those!"
Sirius stuck his tongue out at Harry, "Veritaserum."
Lupin looked up at him, "Why didn't I think of that? That is smart."
Sirius folded his arms and smiled, "See I can be smartical also."
Harry shook his head in disappointment, "That isn't even a word, Padfoot."
"Neither was Uncy Padfoo', but you don't see me making fun of you," Sirius pointed out.
"Really, like really?" Harry asked.
"Don't argue with him, Harry," Lupin said before Sirius could say anything. "It's pointless. It really is."
"Idiot," Harry muttered.
Sirius was about to argue back but Lupin stood up, "Stop it. Both of you. Now Lily and James. We can't do anything until we've talked to them. And we can't just go in there and tell them everything at once. Okay?"
"Yes, sir," Harry and Sirius said after Lupin's strict tone had died.
Lupin took a deep breath again, "Harry, you are going to have to hid under a cloak. James and Lily and everyone else will flip if they see a grown up baby Harry. And you shouldn't talk either. You sound way to much like James. And if anyone talks to you, then use a different voice. But whatever you do, don't take the cloak or hood off. Do you understand?"
"Yes sir," Harry replied like he was talking to a military officer.
"I'm serious," Lupin's eyes shone with seriousness and strictness.
"Actually, he's Sirius," Harry said pointing at Sirius, who laughed.
"Well do you want to see the rest of the house, Prongslet?" Sirius asked, getting up.
"Yeah," Harry said jumping up and following Sirius out of the dining room.
They entered the kitchen next and it was beautiful. Again it had wood floors. Harry now decided that there were only wood floors in this house. They didn't even get a foot into the kitchen when a house elf appeared in their way, "Mrs. Potter has told Bippy that no one is allowed in this kitchen, even Mr. Black himself."
"Well thank you, Bippy. You may go," Sirius said and stood there. "You can leave anytime."
"Mrs. Potter has told Bippy not to leave until the guests do, to make sure that theys don't go into the kitchen," Bippy replied. "And if they do, to contact her."
Sirius sighed and turned around and Harry and Lupin followed him back into the dining room and living room where they stopped at the main entrance.
"Why can't anyone go into your kitchen?" Harry asked.
"Cause your mum got mad at Prongs and I once because we had a food fight and broke everything in there," Sirius said like it was no big deal. "Now, Prongslet about the house elves. You know how many there are at Hogwarts? Well double that and you have the Sirius Estate."
"Hermione would flip," Harry sighed.
"Now, to name a few: Tippy, Bippy, Zippy, Nippy, and Jeeves."
"Jeeves?" Harry asked. "That's random."
"Well, he's the elf everyone likes so I gave him that name," Sirius smiled. "There's more but I don't feel like naming them."
"So you named them?" Harry asked.
Sirius chuckled, "Well, your dad helped. Bippy just came to him, Nippy likes to nip pick at things, Zippy is always running around, and Tippy well, lets just say he can't carry anything that breaks. Jeeves just sounded awesome. There is one named Tipsy and she had one to many one night, so yeah."
Harry smiled, "Okay. Shall we get this tour on?"
Sirius walked to his left, "This is the den, Prongslet. We usually just stay in the living room, though."
The den had, again no surprise to Harry, wood floors. There was an enormous fireplace stationed at the furthest wall made of brick. There of course were torches that gave off light and tapestries. The couches and armchairs were pointed towards the fireplace. There was a small wooden table in the middle that held up candle holders and different kinds of knickknacks. At one end of the room there was a long bar that went across the room. Of course Sirius had one of those.
"Everything is so," Harry couldn't think of a word that best fit this house.
"Elegant?" Lupin asked.
"Yeah," Harry said looking around.
"And if you follow that hallway, Prongslet," Sirius pointed to an opening at the other end. "It will take you to a library bigger then you've ever seen."
They walked back out to the main entrance. This time Harry noticed how high the ceiling was.
"Shall we make out way up the stairs?" Sirius asked.
Without replying Harry followed Sirius up the stairs still memorized. As you walked up the stairs, you could see still pictures all over the walls.
"These pictures were taken all through out our lives," Sirius said stopping at one. It was of him, James and Lupin all laughing and having fun. As they made their way up more, James and Lily's wedding past them, then some more of the Marauders. Then at the top were some of baby Harry. There was one that Sirius stopped at and looked for a little bit. It was of him lying on the couch with a bundled up baby on his lap and next to that was a picture of him and James standing next to each other smiling. The last one was of Sirius and James again, but it looked like a school picture. It had both of them standing there and at the bottom read: Most Likely to Stay Friends Forever.
Harry smiled and Followed Sirius through a door, and on the front it said: Sirius Black. Sirius' room was big with a high ceiling. There was a fireplace on the West wall with a two couches facing it, and the floors, they were wooden, of course. Harry's attention went straight to the bed. It was fit for a king. There was a headboard and against that headboard must have been a hundred pillows all stacked against each other. The bed had four giant posts stretching up to the ceiling and just the bed itself looked like it could fit all of London plus more.
Beside the beds were some torches that gave off light but Harry noticed something weird. "There aren't any windows, Padfoot."
"I'm to cool for windows," Sirius laughed. "Well, we can also go to your mum's and dad's room, Moony's room, and all the other places there are to see. Or we can just go straight to the coolest room ever."
"And what room would that be?" Harry asked as he heard Lupin chuckle, "Yours, Harry."
Sirius walked over to a door and opened it, "Welcome to baby Harry's room."
"You have a door connecting them?" Lupin asked.
"Yep, how do you think that I got Harry so many more times than Lily?" Sirius asked.
Harry's room was nothing like he expected it to be. It was so much more than he needed. There was a massive crib too big for a baby. In one corner there was nothing but toys and more toys. There was also a fireplace with a couple of couches around it.
"My mum let me have a fireplace?" Harry asked.
"She didn't have a choice. It was either this, or you share a room with me," Sirius sighed. "I was hoping that you'd get to share a room with me but she said that I might be a bad influence on you. You know with my staying up late, experimenting, and pranking. She wished that you didn't grow up like Prongs or me, but we see how good that turned out."
"There are like a million rooms in this house though," Harry said. "Mum could have picked anyone."
Lupin stepped in, "Padfoot threw a fit for the longest time, suggesting that you get the one next to him. Finally your mum gave him. But there was a catch. She got to design your room the way she wanted to. It was only a little while after she designed it, that Padfoot here redesigned saying that it didn't fit your personality."
"Well I don't know about you two, but I'm hungry. Shall we head back and eat or stay here?" Sirius asked.
"Lets stay!" Harry said.
"Oh Jeeves!" Sirius called.
There was a pop and a house elf appeared at Sirius' feet, "Master Black called Jeeves."
"Can we get some food?" Sirius asked rubbing his stomach.
Jeeves looked up at Sirius, "The question is Master Black, do we have any food?"
Sirius laughed, "Your right. Uh, do you want to get us food?"
Jeeves sighed, "Not really. But uh-" Jeeves stopped at looked up at Harry. "Mister Potter?"
"Yes, I'm Harry Potter," Harry looked back at the elf. He'd never seen an elf act the way it did with Sirius.
Jeeves bowed, "I haven't seen you since you were a baby."
Harry just smiled.
"About that food, Jeeves," Sirius said as everyone heard his stomach rumble.
Jeeves sighed again, "I'll have another elf work on that, Master Black."
"Thank you," Sirius smiled yet again and the elf popped away.
"That's one strange elf," Harry commented. "But he sure is awesome."
"But he's awesome," Sirius laughed. "Lets us go eat in the dining room."
Lupin, Sirius, and Harry all walked back down to the dining room, not stopping at any more pictures. Once they got in there, there was already food at the table.
"They sure do work fast," Harry said, as he dug in.
"You Harry," Sirius said as he put several different things on his plate, "When I died, I left you everything I owned, even this house. I was hoping that Moony would show you it, but I guess he never did."
"Can I have this house?" Harry smiled.
Sirius smiled, and started eating his food ignoring this question. Dinner was ate in silence, everyone enjoying their last meal of this future. After they were done they sat there in silence all thinking about the same thing but no one brought it up.
"So," Sirius said breaking the silence. "We are just going to walk into Hogwarts and take the sword?"
"I don't know," Lupin looked up at the ceiling.
A smile came across Harry's face, "I say we have a little fun with this. No one will be there, well almost no one."
Just then Hedwig flew in and landed in front of Harry, "It's from Ginny. It says that the Order is holding an emergency meeting at Hogwarts in Dumbledore's office and not to tell me, Lupin, or Sirius. Its tomorrow in the morning around ten. I think that we should crash it. Don't you?"
Sirius and Lupin smiled. They were going to have a very fun day.
"About your idea, Harry. I think I have an idea also," Sirius smiled his smile and the planning started.
