Author's Notes: I don't own any of the Harry Potter characters. If I did, I would have Remus tied up to my bed and Sirius cooking in the kitchen while James plays with my daughter. Peter would be running from my cat. I don't own any of the Marvel Comic book Characters either. If I did, Logan would be out in the yard hurting my husband while Scott and Alex are arguing about how to hurt my husband. I don't own any of the Inu-Yasha characters. If I did, Sesshomaru would be joining Remus in my bed. Inu-Yasha would be with James playing with my daughter and Kagome and Sango would be helping Lily and Ororo beat the tar out of Miroku. I don't own any of the Star Wars characters. If I did then Qui-Gon would still be alive, Obi-Wan would not have had to train Anakin, and Anakin would not have gone to the Dark Side. I don't own the Mystic Force Power Rangers. If I did, do you really think Leanbow would have become Korag? I don't own Charmed or anyone from them. If I did, do you really think I would have them fight all those stupid demons that seem to think that they can take them out? I was just laughing at the thought of owning Lord of the Rings, Fantastic Four, or even Pirates of the Caribbean. It's just so flipping funny! Enjoy!
I know it's been a while since I last updated but we've had a few family crisis. One: my father-in-law passed away just before Thanksgiving from liver cancer. Two: My husband's uncle passed away right before Halloween. We've been dealing with all the stuff that you have to take care of when this kind of thing happens. Three: I got a new job and have been working a lot. It started as part-time and moved to full-time about three months ago. Between work, teaching my daughter, adn the funerals, I've barely had time to think much less type. I hope you enjoy this chapter as it has taken me quite a while to even come up with it. Enjoy!
November 15, 1996
Harry was sitting on the rug in the Gryffindor common room watching Ginny and Regina played with Leo. Leo had climbed onto his hands and knees and was rocking back and forth. Regina held his toy panther just out of reach as an incentive for him to try to crawl toward her. Meanwhile, Ginny was encouraging him to go to Regina. Harry looked toward the common room door as it swung open. Piper, Paige, and Phoebe came through the door followed be Remus, Sirius, and Veronica.
"Hey, guys. What's up?" Harry scrambled to his feet as Phoebe watched Leo slowly move forward.
"We've been thinking, Harry, now that we've destroyed the last of the Horcruxes, Voldemort might try to hide and make even more." Paige perched on the arm of the chair that Piper had sat in when Phoebe had joined the girls on the floor. "Not that he has much of a soul left."
"They have a point Harry. I think we need to take the battle to him." Regina looked up from Leo, who had moved a little closer. "So what's the plan?"
"We had Leo…" Piper pointed toward the ceiling. "…Go and talk to the elders. We wanted to know if we could do something that would most likely help you in battle. And they sent word that we could do it. In fact, they said that we could take as long as we wanted as long as it wasn't any longer than a week. The question now is if you want us to do it?"
"Do what?" Harry leaned forward slightly.
Paige opened the Book of Shadows and flipped through it to a particular page. She turned the Book and handed it to Harry. "'To Summon the Dead'. We thought that we could summon your parents and they could help with the battle."
Harry read through the spell before looking up at the three sisters. "I'd be able to meet my parents?"
Piper slipped out of the chair and onto the floor next to Harry. She quickly pulled him into a tight hug. "I think it would be good for you to meet them."
Harry looked up at Regina who had tears in her eyes. "What do you think, Aunt Vee?"
"First, I think you need to call me Veronica. Second, I think that it's an excellent idea. We need all the help we can get. James and Lily were two of the best fighters of our age." Veronica patted her ever-expanding stomach. "Besides, I think I would like see them again myself."
Harry looked over at Piper, Paige, and Phoebe before nodding his head vigorously. "Can we do the spell tonight?"
"We've already got the ritual room set so that we can do the spell." Piper climbed to her feet. "We just need to draw the idiot out of hiding."
"And I think I know how to do it." Veronica cracked her knuckles as she smiled wickedly.
Remus looked worriedly at his wife. "And just how are we going to do that?"
"Peter Pettigrew owes a life debt to Harry, doesn't he?" Veronica looked around at the gathered people. Harry and Remus were nodding slightly. "Since Harry is the only male heir of the Gryffindor line, there are certain things that Godric must teach him, including how to summon the heirs of the Founders. Once Harry has learned it, we 'allow' Pettigrew to escape after 'overhearing' a plan to attack Riddle Manor."
"So he'll take that information to Voldemort and Voldemort figures that he can ambush Harry and the Order." Regina leaned forward slightly. "So he attacks Hogwarts but we're waiting for him here."
"Exactly." Veronica smirked slightly as her daughter caught on to her plan. "And since the learning could take a month, we make sure to plan it around the holidays."
"The question is how do we get the information to Pettigrew? I mean we can't exactly walk into Azkaban and give it to him." Harry looked over at the two Marauders and saw them smirking slightly. "What do you two have planned?"
Sirius raised his eyebrow slightly. "What makes you think that we have something planned?"
"How about the way that you two are smirking?" Regina started to wag her finger in the direction of her father and 'uncle'. "Besides, Mom has told me all about how you would look when you had a plan for something."
"Geez, Vee. Are you trying to give away all our secrets?" Sirius ducked the fist headed for his head. "I don't think Moony should get you pregnant again. You're too easily riled."
"You know that it's just the hormones." Veronica huffed slightly as she leaned back in the couch.
"Back to the plan, please." Regina snuck her way between her mother and Sirius. "What do you and Daddy have in mind to get the information to the rat?"
"I was thinking that we 'allow' Malfoy to be captured and put in the cell next to the rat and he lets it slip that he had heard about the school being empty at Christmas except for Harry and Dumbledore." Sirius started to laugh.
"Meanwhile we get everyone together to fight and Harry and Regina take out old snake face when he shows up." Remus smiled as he leaned back into the comfortable sofa.
"But how do we catch the rat when the job is done?" Veronica's eyes narrowed slightly as she thought of the traitor. "And what kind of charges are we going to pin on Malfoy?"
"That we hadn't gotten to just yet." Sirius rubbed his neck slightly.
Veronica struggled to her feet. "Then I guess you have some thinking to do." She started toward the door. "Just know that whatever you do had better not put Malfoy in any danger or I'll hurt you." She pushed her way out the portrait hole.
"Well, she seemed to take that better than I thought she would." Remus scrambled to his feet and hurried after his wife.
"He is so whipped." Sirius slowly climbed to his feet and gave Regina and Harry each a hug. "We'll let you know when this is all going down."
Regina watched Sirius walk out of the common room before turning to look at the three sisters. "So how exactly does this ritual work?"
Harry and Ginny played with Leo as Piper explained exactly what would be done when the time came.
