DarkPriestess66 says: Grams Halliwell is a little OOC in this, because she accepts Harry as her grandson, because he isn't a witch like she's used too, only a wizard and I hate the Dursleys. They shouldn't have treated Harry like a House-Elf.

It's been two weeks since the end of second term, Alexis Halliwell and Harry Potter still couldn't believe that Lily Potter nee Evans was really adopted by the Evans' family, and that Penelope 'Penny' Halliwell was her biological mother.

Harry and Alexis stood in the attic of the manor, looking at the one spell that could set everything right, the spell to summon the dead, Alexis figured something out over the last two years, she realized that you had to summon the person who died in the same country and not in the school.

"Ready?" Alexis asked as she set one finger on one of the candles willing them to light.

"As I'll ever be," Harry replied.

Hear these words

hear my cry

Spirit from the

other side

Come to me

I summon thee

Cross now the Great Divide

Alexis chanted, she and Harry decided that they would question Grams about Lily, a spirit formed in the circle of candles, it was Penny Halliwell.

"Hello, Grams." greeted Alexis as little coldly, "Mind telling us a few secrets."

"Secrets?" repeated Penny, feeling a cold dread in her heart.

"Yes, about your youngest daughter, the one you gave up for adoption." Alexis stated.

Penny walked out of the circle and became solid, she sat down on the sofa that was in the attic, "I never thought one of my secrets would come out, as you know as well as your sisters, I had many romantic interests,"

"Married four times, engaged six, and at least dated two more before you died," Alexis quoted.

Harry's jaw dropped when he heard that. Alexis' giggled despite herself and gently shut Harry's mouth.

"Its a hardship of being a Halliwell, relationships are doomed to fail at some point, unless the person is of the supernatural or doesn't care." Alexis explained,

"Yes, I did have another child with my first husband and yes, I did give her up, I thought I was doing the right thing because she wasn't showing signs of having magic, I couldn't let her be killed by demons, so after I found a loving couple who had already had a one daughter, I left her with them. Last thing I knew she and her new family moved to England." Penny explained,

"They named her Lily," Harry stated, "My mother."

Penny glanced at Harry, "Why didn't I see it before, you have her eyes,"

With having everything explained, that indeed Lily Potter was indeed a Halliwell, without having the wiccan side of magic or at least for all they knew. She could have controlled the magic and didn't let anyone see. Everything was the same, except having Harry live in the manor. Whenever Demons showed up Alexis protected Harry with her shield because they couldn't use underage magic. Two weeks later, Carmela came to take them back to England where they would collected the rest of Harry's things. Stuff he didn't take with him to school. Like drawings past letters from their friends and used a lot of memory dust on the Dursleys, so they wouldn't remember who Harry Potter is or Lily Potter was. Oh and a little incident of Marge Dursley, who decided to bad mouth Lily and James, Harry used Accidental magic on her, and she swelled like a balloon.

They were waiting for Carmela to orb back from 'Up There' when they heard something in the bushes. A huge black dog stared at them, with glowing yellow eyes.

Harry raised his wand then fell backwards, next thing they knew there was a huge triple decker bus in front of them.

"Welcome to the Knight Bus emergency transport for the stranded witch or wizard. My name is Stan Shunpike, and I will be your conductor for this evening," the conductor greeted before looked around only to see Harry down on the ground, "What you doing down there?"

"I fell over." Harry answered

"What you fell over for?" Stan asked.

"I didn't do it on purpose." Harry replied as Alexis helped him stand

"Well, come on, then." Stan ushered. "Let's not wait for the grass to grow."

Harry and Alexis step around the bus to look at the bushes where that huge dog was. There wasn't anything there.

"What you looking at?" Stan asked as he too looked around

"Nothing." answered Alexis

"Well come on, then. in." Stan stated.

Harry was about to get his trunk. When Stan stopped him

"No, No, no. I'll get this. You get in." Stan stated.

Stan ushered them to the front where the driver was waiting, Stan tapped on the glass. "Take her away, Ern."

"Yeah, take it away, Ernie." a shrunken head repeated. "It's going to be bumpy ride."

The bus shot off, causing the thirteen year olds to fall backwards into the beds that were

there,

"What did you say your names were?" Stan asked as he looked at them.

"We didn't" Alexis answered as both her and Harry held on to a metal post for dear life.

"Whereabouts are you headed?" Stan asked.

"The Leaky Cauldron, that's in London." Harry replied.

"You hear that? 'The Leaky Cauldron, that's in London." Stan repeated.

"The Leaky Cauldron. If you have the pea soup make sure you eat it, before it eats you." the shrunken head suggested.

'This driver needs to retire!' Alexis thought as she felt like she was going to lose the contents of her stomach.

"But the Muggles. Can't they see us?" Harry asked.

"Muggles? They don't see nothing, do they?" Stan asked.

"No, but if you jab them with a fork, they feel." the Shrunken head added.

Around the street the bus flew.

"Ernie, little old lady at 12 o'clock!" the Shrunken head exclaimed.

After the bus started again, Harry and Alexis seen the front page of the Daily Prophet the headlines were Escape from Azkaban.

"Who is that man?" Harry asked

"Who is that? That's Sirius Black that is, Don't tell me you've never been hearing of Sirius Black." Stan repeated then leaned in closer, "He's a murderer. Got himself locked up in Azkaban for it."

"How did he escape?" Alexis asked. She looked at the man in the picture, he was filthy looking, skinny and above all dangerous looking.

"That's the question, isn't it?" Stan replied. "He's the first one that done it. He was a big supporter of You-Know-Who, I reckon you've heard of him."

"Yeah, him I heard of." Harry replied

Alexis nodded in agreement.

Finally after a heart stopping ride, they finally arrived alive at the Leaky Cauldron.

"Mr. Potter, Ms. Halliwell, at last." Greeted Tom

they walked in and was shown to where the Minister was waiting for them. Harry smiled at the sight of his owl.

"Hedwig." Harry greeted.

Alexis saw her Eagle-owl sitting right next to Hedwig. "Kuari." they went over and petted their owls who nibbled on their fingers affectionately.

"Right smart birds, you got there, Mr. Potter, Ms. Halliwell. They arrived here just five minutes before yourselves." the barkeeper stated.

A man cleared his throat, "As the Minister for Magic, it is my duty to inform, Mr. Potter and you, Ms. Halliwell that earlier this evening that Vernon Dursley's sister was located a little south of Sheffield, circling a chimney stack. The Accidental Magic Reversal Department was dispatched immediately. She has been properly punctured and her memory modified. She will have no recollection that you were ever there, so that's that and no harm done. Pea soup?"

"No thanks." Alexis stated.

"Minister?" Harry asked.

"Yes?" the Minister answered

"I don't understand." Harry replied

"Understand?" repeated the Minister

"I broke the law. Underage wizards can't use magic at home." Harry explained. "well my home is the Halliwell Manor now, but you understand."

The two showed up at the same time as Marge Dursley, she saw something about Lily and James Potter and Harry was pissed off and caused Marge to swell up like a balloon

"Come now. The Ministry doesn't send people to Azkaban for blowing up their adoptive aunts." the Minister replied. "On the other hand, not waiting for the Elder Carmela, given the state of things was very, very irresponsible."

"The state of things, sir?" Alexis and Harry asked.

"We have a killer on the loose." the Minister replied.

"Sirius Black, you mean?" Harry asked. "But what's he got to do with us?"

"Nothing, of course. You're both safe. And that's what matters." Minister Fudge replied. "And day after tomorrow you'll be your way back to Hogwarts. These are your new schoolbooks, I took the liberty of having them brought here. Now Tom will show you to your rooms."

Harry and Alexis both called their owls to them, and were about to leave when the Minister stopped them"Oh, by the way, Harry, Alexis. Whilst you're here it would be best if you didn't wander."

the next day, Alexis was sitting in Harry's room. She didn't even look at the books in her room, after one of them pretty much snarled at her, she used the crystals to form a cage around it.

"Harry don't even think about releasing that book. That thing in alive." Alexis warned. But Harry didn't listen and opened the book anyway. "What an idiot."

the book began to chase after Harry, who jump on the bed to get away from it. The Monster book of monsters lives up to it's name. Harry had to use his shoe to draw out the book, from underneath the bed and jump on it.

They walked into the hallway to see an all to familiar rat being chased by a cat well two cats, one being Snowdrop, who didn't even look up at his charge.

"I'm warning you, Hermione. Keep that beast away from Scabbers, or I'll turn it into a tea cozy." Ron warned, "Isn't that Snowdrop?"

"it's a cat, Ronald. what do you expect? It's in his nature." Hermione replied.

"A cat? Is that what they told you?" Ron asked. "Looks like a pig with hair."

"That's rich coming from the owner of that smelly old shoe brush." Hermione retorted. Alexis saw Hermione cuddled the cat, "Crookshanks, just ignore the mean little boy."

"Harry." Ron greeted, "Lexi."

"Harry, Lexi." Hermione greeted,

Alexis and Harry were looking at a picture of a old Daily Prophet, where the Weasley family were on vacation,

"Egypt, What's it like?" Harry asked.

"Brilliant. Loads of old stuff like mummies, tombs, even Scabbers enjoyed himself." Ron replied.

"You know the Egyptians used to worship cats," Hermione pointed out,

"Along with the dung beetle," retorted Ron

"Not flashing that clipping again?" George asked.

"I haven't shown anyone." Ron answered.

Fred reached over and took it, "No, not soul. Not unless you count Tom."

"The day maid." George added

"Night maid." Fred seconded.

"Cook."

"The bloke who fixed the toilet,"

"In other words, He shown that clipping to everyone in the Leaky Cauldron," Alexis stated, before she saw Mrs. Weasley.

"Harry, Alexis." Mrs. Weasley greeted.

"Mrs. Weasley," both teens greeted before standing up and hugged the woman

"Good to see you, dears." Mrs. Weasley stated.

"Good to see you." Harry replied.

"Got everything, you need?" Mrs Weasley asked.

"Yes, everything is all upstairs." Harry replied.

"Me too." Alexis seconded,

"Harry Potter, Alexis Halliwell." Mr. Weasley greeted

"Must I remind you two, just to call me Lexi, I think I'm a member of your family too." Alexis complained

"Harry, Alexis, wonder if I might have a word?" Mr. Weasley asked.

"Yeah, Sure." replied both teens again.

They walked around the corner away from the rest,

"Looking forward to a new term?" Mr. Weasley asked.

"yeah. It should be great." Harry replied

"If we can have a nice year this time." Alexis muttered.

"Harry, Lexi, some within the Ministry would strongly discourage me from divulging what I'm about to reveal to you both," Arthur stated. "but I think that you need to know the facts. You are in danger. Grave danger."

"Personally, my life has been threatened since I regain my powers two years ago." Alexis replied.

"Had this anything to do with Sirius Black, sir?" Harry asked.

Alexis stared at the wanted poster of Sirius Black, she couldn't shake the feeling she knew him from somewhere deep within her own shady past.

"What do you know about Sirius Black, Harry, Lexi?" Arthur asked.

"Only that he's escaped from Azkaban." Alexis replied.

"Do you know why?" Arthur asked yet again.

Both teens shook their heads.

"Thirteen years ago when you both stopped.." Arthur began

"Voldemort." Harry stated.

"Don't say his name." Arthur stated.

"Sorry," Harry apologized,

"When you both stopped You-Know-Who Black lost everything, but to this day, he still remains a faithful servant and in his mind you are the only thing that stands in the way of You-Know-Who returning to power, and that is why he has escaped from Azkaban." Arthur explained. "To find you."

"and kill me." Harry finished.

"But what does that have to do with me?" Alexis asked.

Arthur looked at her, "You don't know the rumors that are going around about your past, everyone thinks you're the missing Morgana Black, his only daughter."

Alexis paled she knew that her real first name was Morgana but if she was truly the daughter of a mass murderer what would she do?

"Harry, Lexi. Swear to me that whatever you might hear you won't go looking for Black." Arthur requested

"Mr. Weasley, why would I go looking for someone who wants to kill me?" Harry asked.

"I don't know about my biological father, but I know that if he comes after Harry, Sirius Black will have one bloody fight on his hands." Alexis stated.
