Harry apparated into Ron and Hermione's living room couch. He hasn't apparated in a long time, he normally would take floo powder or go by car the normal way but this was important to him and he didn't want to waste any time.
"Ron, Hermione!" Harry yelled.
They both came running down the stairs. "Harry!" Ron came around the couch hugging his best friend. "Harry, what are you doing here? And how'd you get here?" Hermione said astonished. There was no car outside or any sign of floo powder.
"I apparated here from home. Now listen I nee-" Hermione cut him off.
"Apparated? You haven't apparated since..well even I can't remember." Ron chuckled.
"I know, I only apparate when it's important." Harry didn't know how to tell them about his son's dreams. Or if they would even be as worried as he was about it.
Ron looked worried "What is it mate?"
"My son's been having these dreams and I'm worried they mean something. I'm on a search to find answers and I have no idea where to start." Harry leaned back against their couch running his hands through his hair.
"Harry, I'm sure they're just dreams. Nothing to worry about. Rose has nightmares all the time but they don't mean anything."
"James's dreams aren't about evil Barbie dolls and bunnies Hermione they are much worse." Harry wasn't sure how to tell them.
Ron laughed at Harry's choice of words. "Are they about evil pancakes again? Does he need uncle Ron to teach those pancakes a lesson?"
Harry breathed trying not to laugh. "It's more than that…it's about a certain someone." He walked toward the window and looked out at the sight.
"I've been having memories and thoughts about the battle and before it. I shut them out for so long they all just came rushing back inside my mind and consumed me at one point. Ginny had to calm me down once while I was dreaming about everyone I lost. I would see his face and him smirk and kill everyone I loved most. I learned how to control it and hid the pain and hurt from my children." Harry kept looking out the window not looking at Ron or Hermione.
"Harry" Hermione started.
"But I don't think I was fooling James. He would give me this worried look every morning leading up to his current dream that he's having. Never anything new just the same one." Harry closed his eyes. "Now what I'm about to tell you, may make you want to come on the search with me. But that is no conversation we will talk about. I'm going alone. You both have Rose and Hugo to worry about and I don't want to bring trouble. I just came for a couple questions and locations."
"What's going on Harry?" Ron walked up to Harry.
"James has been getting dreams about Voldemort."
Hermione put her hand over her mouth and Ron looked shocked.
"That shouldn't mean anything though mate. Could just be scared for your sake."
Harry shook his head "No it means something. James told me exactly what Voldemort looked like. He's never seen what he looks like and I've never described Voldemort to him. He specifically said slits for a nose, red eyes, black robes, and Nagini the snake."
"And where do you plan on going to find answers Harry? Voldemort is dead; it's not possible for him to be back." Hermione said.
"I know that Hermione, but I have to do something. I'm going to visit all the sites we stayed when we searched for the horcruxes and Hogwarts itself. Also my hometown where he killed my parents and just different places."
"I'm going with you, you're not going alone in this."
"No, I already told you I'm going alone."
"Mate, we stayed with you until the end and if it starts back up I'm still here with you by your side. You're not alone in this." Ron put his hand on Harry's shoulder.
He looked at Hermione to Ron and back again. "Please, I can't risk your life again when you have a family to be with. I'm going alone; I just need a few locations from you Hermione."
Hermione wrote them down on a piece of paper slowly handing it back to Harry. "Harry I really think that Ron shou-"
"No. What you two can do is keep Ginny company for me. I don't know how long I will be gone and she was really upset when I left. But she understands that I need to do whatever I can to protect our son."
"You can't do this alone and I won't let you."
"I was once prepared to have both of you with me, but as I watched so many people get killed because of me letting them help me I vowed to not let that happen again. I have to do this one on my own for my own sake. I can't let you put your life on hold for me. I won't let another loved one get killed because of me." And he apparated out before they got another word in edge wise.
That was the last time they saw and heard from Harry for a long time.
