Chapter 5: Meet the family

AU James POV

1980 August 7th

James was sitting in the kitchen of his house, at Godric's Hollow with his wife, Dumbledore. Ms Pomfery was checking on her two patients upstairs. It had been two days since the two stranger had landed in their time and none of them had wake up, or even move. The fact that both of them was breathing was the only thing that allowed them to know they were alive. The little had no major injuries and Poppy had said that she was magically drained and was going to wake up when her magic level would be back to normal. For the man, it was another story, he almost didn't survived. He had injuries, deep cuts on his very thin body, and had serious loss of blood. He had survived thanks to his Lily and Poppy, and after his situation stabilized, he and Lily had accepted to let them rest in their house. He knew that Lily had accept to give them a room because she was feeling guilty. The spell hadn't worked the way it should have. It was supposed to bring them a hero. James had imagined someone who would be a mix of Dumbledore and Moody…someone who inspired fear. Instead, they got two children from god know when. He sighed. He had no right to be mad at them, they had done nothing wrong. Truth is James was feeling guilty too, they had kidnapped two innocent children and put them in the middle of a war, which was not them to fight for. He should had been stronger and he should have refused to follow the easy path. But now, it was too late to regret and he was just hoping that the girl and the man would wake up soon so he could try to earn their forgiveness.

As he heard voices coming from the staircase, he turned his head and was very shocked to see that Poppy was not coming back alone. The little had wake up and was now holding Poppy's hand while looking at them with wide eyes.

"She was up when I went to check on them, but I had a hard time convince her to leave the man side" said Poppy with a tired voice. Lily nodded and got up, "Are you hungry little one? Do you want me to cook you something?" The little girl still hadn't said a word and again she just nodded. Lily smiled and told the girl to go sat near James. "He won't bite" she said grinning as the girl was walking and sitting slowly in the chair next to James. "Is eggs and bacon okay for you sweety? James pour the lady a glass of orange juice!" Dumbledore and Poppy had to return to Hogwarts, so they were only the three of them on the kitchen. James looked carefully to the little girl as she was eating her breakfast. She was at most six year old but you could already say she was going to grow up in a beauty. She had light blue eyes and long blond hair. He cheek was high and if she still had the plumpness of childhood but he could say that she was spending a lot of time outside.

Once the girl had finished her plate, she stayed there, looking by the window.

"Hummmm…..Can you tell me your name little one? I won't hurt you." He said hesitantly. The girl looked at him and it was like if she was seeing deep inside his heart and soul.

"My name is Hope. What your name?" she answered with a little voice.

"Hi Hope, My name is James, and this is my wife, Lily." He said pointing at Lily, Hope was now looking at his wife with the same strange and deep look. Then she get back to looking at her hand, on the table.

"You are in our house now, how are you feeling?" he continued. "I am okay, just a little tired."

"How old are you?" "I am five year old". Still the same little voice and short answer.

"How are you related to the man upstairs?" "It's my Daddy." She stopped. "Is he going to be okay?" James looked at her not sure about what to say. 'Daddy', but the boys looked like he was 18 year old!

"He is going to okay sweetie! I promise." This time it was Lily who answered. Hope nodded and stay silent for a minute.

"Are we here because of magic?" Once again Hope was looking straight into his eyes. "Yes. Yes, magic brings you here."

"I hate magic" was her answer. James exchanged a worrying look with his wife. That was not good news.

"Hey little one!" Hope's face lightened as she runs to her dad. James looked at the man standing to the door, as he was hogging his daughter in his arm. He really looked young, more like Hope's brother than her father. The man had shoulder length, dark hair who was coming to his face, and he was shorter than James. And very thin. But the part of the man which caught James attention was the man's eye. They were green and they could have like Lily's but they were a few shade darker. He didn't exactly why but this made him really sad. The man get his attention back to the kitchen and saw James and Lily. As soon as he saw them, his face paled and he looked shocked.

Harry POV

He could not believe his eyes. Right there in front of him was standing his father and his mother. Alive. But something was wrong. They looked too young to be true. The two of them seemed to be the same age they were in the pictures Hagrid gave him when he was a first year….but even if his parents were alive they would be older.

"Who are you?" he asked the man.

"My name is James Potter and this is my wife, Lily. Would you like something to eat?" James, was tensed as he glared at him. But Harry didn't notice a lie in the man words. So he shook his head and asked: "How did I get here? And where are we?" "We are at my place, in Godric's Hollow. As for your first question, we should wait until Dumbledore gets here, he should be the one to explain." Harry gaped at the man standing in front of him. "Dumbledore?" he asked? Who was the man talking about? Certainly not Albus Dumbledore as the man was dead since more than five years. Maybe he was talking about Aberforth Dumbledore, but Harry doubted that. But again, James and Lily was here, well people looking exactly like them was there. He shook his head.

James was still staring at him curiously. "You…You don't know who Albus Dumbledore is? He finally asked, looking skeptical, as if no one in his right mind would not know Dumbledore.

Harry didn't answered. It was useless. He just sat down, with Hope on his laps, as the little girl was climbing on him as if she was never gone let him go again. He thanked Lily with a smile and started eating breakfast.

James sat down across him and Lily started doing the dishes, magical way! Hope had fallen asleep, with her head on his shoulder. Harry was thinking. At first, he thought that the people in the kitchen was maybe Death Eater in disguise, but it just didn't seemed right. He couldn't feel dark magic from any of them and both of them were wearing short sleeves, showing their forearms. The Dark mark was a very dark and very powerful magic. After the war, he had study the mark with Ron and Hermione. Drago has turned against his master and help them during the war, but the fact that he bore the mark had cause him trouble after the war, nobody wanting to hire an ex-death eater. Drago had always refuse Harry's help to find a job, saying that he had to pay for his mistakes. Anyways, the dark mark was impossible to hide. It showed under the polyjuice potion, under the most advanced charms and even metamophmagus was not able to conceal it. Or the fake James and Lily had bare forearm. It brought even more question now.

The fire place in the kitchen went green and Dumbledore elegantly stepped outside, followed by Sirius, Remus and Minerva McGonagall. Harry looked around the kitchen. Except for Hope and Minerva, all the people here were dead, well supposed to be dead. He couldn't see himself right now but he supposed he had gone deadly pale when Dumbledore asked him if he was ok. He nodded and watched the dead taking place around the table. No one was speaking. They all share looks, while Dumbledore was looking outside. He didn't want to make them the pleasure to speak first so he remained quiet, running a hand through Hope's blonde hair.

Albus Dumbledore spoke first. "Hello, my name is Albus Dumbledore" he said calmly. "Can I ask who are you? I know you must have load of questions and I will answer them in time."

He sighed, that was so Dumbledore-ish. But he didn't really had a choice.

"My name is Hugo Granger. I was walking when my daughter then a magic-kind of tornado took us, me and my daughter here. And I am still not sure of where [here] is"

He stared at Dumbledore. If someone had the answers, that would be him. And in a matter of fact, Dumbledore was looking a little unsettled. But to his surprise, it was Lily Potter who answered his untold question.

"We called you here." She said with tears in her eyes. "We made a spell to call a Savior, but something must have gone wrong and you got there instead. I am very sorry."

Harry let the words sink in. They 'called him' 'a savior'? He must had heard wrong. "And what were you hoping to be save from? He asked.

"I don't know where you are from or what the situation in your world is but here, we are having a hard time because of a dark wizard, who called himself Voldemort." Dumbledore said.

"….. HAHAHAHAHA"

James POV

"…..HAHAHAHAHAHAHA" at the name Voldemort, the man, Hugo who was sitting in front of him started laughing like crazy, even waking up his daughter who looked strangely at her dad. The man, Hugo if this was his real name. Somehow it didn't fit him. Hugo suddenly stopped laughing and his face became cold, almost like a mask.

"And how do I get home. I am not staying here." The voice was as cold as the face, and even if the man hadn't screamed, James felt scared.

"There is no way for you to get home. The spell we used, it was more like a ritual, and it was supposed to bring a Savior. Someone who could kill Voldemort. We didn't expect it to bring a child. But the spell linked you to us. The only way for you to go home is the death of Voldemort." Albus explained the situation calmly. But the more he was talking, the more Hugo face was becoming darker. I could see Lily, shrugging as she was looking at Hugo and I could see everyone in the room feeling the same. What had we done?
