A/N: I hope you are enjoying the story and are not upset by my non canon additions like Harry's job and Teddy's life. I decided to do something that a lot of people won't want done to the franchise but please don't hate me for it. Also I own nothing; this is J.K's playground I'm just playing in it.

Chapter Nine: An Unexpected Return

It was a week since the birth of Victorie and the Weasley's were ecstatic by her she was as beautiful as Fleur the same hair and eyes and whenever Teddy was near her he would kiss her cheeks implying she had the Veela touch.

In the Potter house a Ministry letter arrived for Harry.

Harry

We need to talk if I may I wish to visit you and Ginny at your home, if you accept simply touch your wand to the paper and reply 'yes' then I will apparate to you.

Regards

Kingsley Shacklebolt

Minister for Magic

"Yes!" Harry said holding his wand towards the paper and suddenly the minister appeared.

"Harry, Ginny I heard there's a wedding soon." He said in his booming voice

"Yes very soon Minister." Ginny said kissing him on the cheek.

"Please call me Kingsley."

"Sorry Kingsley, but your message sounded urgent, is something wrong?" Harry asked looking worried as if Kingsley had come to say Riddle was back.

"No for once I have good news. Harry the Ministry may be able to return your parents and Sirius back from the dead."

Harry had collapsed at the news it took him a few minutes to regain his senses. "WHAT DID YOU SAY?" He shouted thinking it was a trap. "What were Albus Dumbledore's last words to you and Remus?"

"Harry is the last hope we have, trust him."

"Good it is you." Harry said as he punched him in the face. "DO YOU KNOW HOW LONG IT HAS TAKEN ME TO FINALLY COME TO PEACE WITH THE FACT THEIR DEAD? AND NOW YOU COME HERE SAYING YOU CAN BRING THEM BACK I-I-I JUST W-W-W-WANT TO LIVE MY LIFE!" Harry shouted he was angry and just realized what he done. "Kingsley I-I'm sorry."

"Don't be, I expected a good stunning spell but the punch was better." He said chuckling and removing the blood with his wand.

"How can you bring someone back from the dead?" Ginny asked holding Teddy who was crying and scared.

"Teddy I'm sorry. Come here buddy." Harry said taking the baby who relaxed when Harry took him.

"It is rather simple Ginny; the veil in the Department of Mysteries is a two way connection and we just recently discovered the return spell." Kingsley explained to them.

"So can it bring Fred back?" Ginny asked looking very happy. "Harry, where are you going?"

"I am going to Hogwarts! Kingsley please, stay I will be back in a hour at the latest" Harry said using the Floo network and being transported to his office going directly to the Forbidden Forest and calling "Accio Resurrection Stone!" and a small black stone appeared in his hand. He returned to his house and turned it thrice in hand.

"Merlin's Beard, its Remus, Dora, Sirius, James and Lily!" Kingsley said looking mesmerised.

"We have a way for you all come back to this life if you want." Harry said looking at them all.

"We are fine Harry, Dora and I agree we made a good choice in you." Remus said looking healthy as a teenager. "Wotcher Harry! And Remus is right mate, were fine and besides Harry, Teddy loves you and Ginny, you are his parents now and we want that for him." And they disappeared.

"I'll come back if they do." Sirius said looking at his friends.

"Do you want us back Harry?" James asked looking at his son.

"Harry…" was all his mother could say with the tears in her eyes.

"Yes more than anything in the world." He said tears in his eyes as well.

"Then we will my son."

"Yes I can't wait I'm dying…well you know what I mean Harry I have missed you." Sirius said a tear going down his eye.

"Excellent we will have you back in an hour. And you will be aged by the spell so you can be a full family again." Kingsley said looking happy to see his old friends.

"Wait one more thing we have to go to the Burrow." Harry said taking Ginny's hand.

The two with Teddy had Floo'd to the Burrow and explained the situation to the Weasley's and Andromeda and then Harry thought of Fred and Teddy's parents and tuned the stone.

"Fred! Is it really you?" George asked looking gobsmacked at his brother. "No I'm really the Easter Bunny!" Fred said and hugged George. "Harry you can bring me back! George and I have a shop to run."

"Mom I already told Harry mine and Remus' answer, were happy with our son's life and don't want to change it." Tonks said to her mother. "I understand dear, but I love you and miss you and I know I can't force you to return." Andromeda said as Tonks hugged her and disappeared.

"Ok well that's everyone." Kingsley said explaining that all the students hurt in the attack had their families contacted and were waiting in the Ministry and that only violent deaths curses, hexes or being killed by an item hit by one could be brought back.

After going to the room Harry was surprised to see some familiar faces long gone; Mad-eye, Cedric, Colin, Lavender Brown, Fred Weasley and to his surprise Albus and Ariana Dumbledore. Then came Harry's turn he said the names and his parents appeared older than anytime he had seen them but still looking amazing and Sirius who instantly hugged Harry, James and Lily in one huge sweep of his arm.

The whole family and the Dumbledore's went to Harry's house where he explained to his parents his upbringing and adventures in and out of Hogwarts and his recent life leaving Ginny and Teddy and all of his work and new job in Hogwarts out of it. Harry then told Sirius of Kreacher's new ways and how the house was now clean and liveable then what really happen to Regulus and the events surrounding his death. "Thank you Harry, it gives me comfort knowing he died stopping Riddle." He said hugging Harry tightly.

"Harry, you neglected to mention you're engagement to Ms Weasley." Albus said smiling at him.

"Engagement, my baby is getting married!" Lily cried and hugged Ginny tightly. "Thank you for loving him when we couldn't."

"Have you got anymore news Harry?" James asked looking at his son he had his arm around Harry since he came through the veil.

"This is Teddy…my son." Harry said giving Teddy to Lily to hold. He then explained all about him and Ginny their relationship and break up, eventual rekindling and taking the positions of Teddy's parents under Remus' and Tonks request.

"My son you make the Potter name proud." James said hugging Harry tightly in his arms.

"I want to see Petunia Harry. Can you take me to her?" Lily asked her son who agreed and the two disapparated to Privet Drive. "She still lives here?" Lily asked smiling at her son.

The two knocked at expected the result; Petunia had fainted and they took her inside helped her get her bearings and she spoke. "Lily! Is it really you?" "Yes Tuni it's me." Lily said hugging her sister the two reconciled after Lily tore into her about Harry's treatment in his youth but forgave her and kissed her goodbye.

"Well Harry we will stay with Padfoot until we buy a house somewhere near Hogsmeade so we can see you when we want." James said kissing his son goodnight it was Harry's biggest dream realized; his parents were alive.

A/N: I know that it seems counterproductive returning all his loved ones back but I thought even Harry needed his family please review telling me your thoughts.
