Hey everyone, I hope you're all well out there. Just a relatively short chapter here, but kinda wanted to just wrap up this part as this will be the last chapter of loopy Harry. He has been a lot of fun to write, but alas he will start feeling better next chapter. I hope you enjoy.

As always, I do not own Harry Potter.

Chapter 5

The room erupted into chaos. 1996!

"1996, Harry it's not 1996 it's 1977" Sirius cried from beside him.

Harry blinked at that, trying to focus.

"He's a time traveller" Lord Potter gasped.

"If he was under attack at Grimmauld Place and really is the black heir it's a possibility that the magic of the house did what it could to save him." Orion explained, pacing up and down the room in agitation.

"Is that even possible?" Regulus asked.

"I wouldn't have thought so, but I guess anything is possible."

"We need to contact Gringotts, see if we can get a goblin here to do a ancestry test to prove who young Harry is" Lady Potter exclaimed.

James just stared in shock. Could it be true? Could the boy on the bed actually be his son? He thought it was just crazy ramblings from the combination of potions he was on, but what if it's actually the truth. He felt a wave of nausea wash over him.

"Harry," James spoke up, over the other voices around him.

Harry who had been staring out the window again, turned to look as his name was called.

"When's your birthday?" James knew he probably shouldn't ask, if Harry really was from the future it might be better not to know, but he just couldn't help himself.

"Ah… it's 31st July 1980."

"1980!" yelped James. He ran his hands through his hair, "three years and I'm a father. Who's your mother?"

"Lily of course. People always say, 'you look so much like your father, but you have your mother's eyes'" Harry's voice became high pitched and squeaky like he was trying to mimic someone, probably a lot of someone's.

James just stood there in shock, he and Lily would have a baby in three years! He was mad about Lily, but it was still quite a surprise.

"That's enough now" Orion interrupted before James could ask anymore questions. "If what he says is true and he really is from the future we need to think carefully about how we go about this."

Lord and Lady Potter nodded in agreement.

"We will contact Gringotts now, may I suggest that until we get a better idea of what to do that everyone stay here at Grimmauld Place. I will have Kreature prepare rooms."

Everybody nodded in agreement.

"If what Harry is saying is true, the future does not go well for any of us, this could be an opportunity for change, but we need to be very careful." Lord Potter said, he looked shaken that the boy on the bed could be his grandchild.

"James, perhaps you should go and get Remus, Harry seems to know him, and it might help him feel more comfortable, especially when all the potions wear off."

James nodded but looked loathed to leave.

"It's alright Prongsy, I'll stay here and make sure Harry is safe until you get back." Sirius said from his place beside Harry.

"Feel free to go with James, Sirius, I can stay here with Harry" Regulus offered.

Both Sirius and James turned to frown at the younger Slytherin.

"Yeah, that's not going to happen. Sirius stay with Harry; I'll go and get Moony."

Regulus rolled his eyes but knew better than to try to argue.

The other adults filed out, Orion leading the way to the room they would be staying in.

Harry seemed quite content laying in between Regulus and Sirius. All three were quiet, so quiet that Sirius was beginning to wonder if Harry had fallen asleep. He rolled over to check and found himself face to face with bright green eyes. They do look like Lily's eyes he thought absently.

"Your very handsome Sirius" Harry said quietly, eyes tracing over the features of his face. Sirius grinned at that; he knew he was good looking.

"I think Regulus may be better looking though" Harry finished thoughtfully, rolling over to look at Regulus, causing both Black teens to splutter in indignation.

"What!?" Regulus croaked.

"He is not!" Sirius squawked at the same time.

"Oh yes, he has this dark brooding intensity going for him, it's quite… intoxicating" Harry murmured, green eyes now focused on Regulus.

Regulus couldn't help but grin at the look of indignation on his brothers face.

Harry twisted his head to look at Sirius, "don't worry, you're still cute" he said as he patted Sirius' cheek gently.

By now Regulus had his hand over his mouth trying to hold back his laughter. Sirius was always number one, the most handsome, the most popular, great grades, everyone just loved him. While Regulus got shunted to the side, it was nice to be someone's first pick for once. Even if it was a potential time traveller off his head on potions.

Before Sirius could say anything else the door opened again and in walked James, followed closely by Remus.

Harry's eyes lit up at the sight of the werewolf.

"Remy!" He cried excitedly, jumping up off the bed, before immediately loosing his balance and stumbling to the floor.

"Easy Harry" James said, gently helping a swaying Harry to his feet.

"But Remy's here!" he cried as if that explained everything, and maybe for him it did.

Harry threw himself into the werewolf's arms, wrapping his arms around his neck, before doing a little jump and wrapping his legs around his waist.

Remus spluttered in embarrassment, stumbling back a few steps as he struggled to keep himself on his feet after the enthusiastic greeting. James had filled Remus in before bringing him into the room, but still it was rather different hearing something to experiencing it.

If what James said was true, this skinny teen was his son from the future, and knew Remus very well. It was a disconcerting thought.

"How are you Moony?" Harry said happily, leaning back slightly so he could see the other teens face. "Isn't it wonderful we can all be together again."

"Err" Moony said, rather intelligently.

Harry didn't seem to notice the lack of response, burying his face back in Remus' neck.

Remus looked helplessly at the other teens in the room, who just shrugged back. No one knew quite what to do.

Regulus came up behind Harry and tried to gently pull him from Remus.

Harry twisted his head to see Regulus behind him, "the pretty one" he murmured before clutching on to Regulus instead. Arms and legs going tight around the tall Slytherin.

"I have a feeling that Harry is going to be very embarrassed by all this when he is a little more in his right mind" James said levelling a glare at Regulus.

The Slytherin just smirked back, holding Harry in his arms as he went back to sit on the bed.

"So, this is your supposed son?" Remus asked, raising an eyebrow at James.

James just nodded, still frowning at Harry curled up in Regulus' arms on the bed.

"I'm so glad you're here Moony" Harry said quietly, eyes growing heavy. "Well, I'm not glad you're dead, but I'm glad we're together again."

Regulus started rubbing soothing circles into Harry's back, lulling the small teen to sleep.

"He's asleep now, you can put him back on the bed" James whispered.

Regulus ignored him, continuing to sooth Harry as he slept.

James, Sirius and Remus had a whispered conversation, but Regulus ignored them, preferring to concentrate on the teen sleeping in his arms.

They weren't waiting long before Orion, Lord Potter and Lady Potter returned to the room, this time with a goblin in tow.

James shushed them as soon as they entered, indicating to the sleeping Harry on the bed. Orion's eyebrows rose nearly up to his hairline when he saw his youngest son cradling the teen in his arms. Regulus was not usually known as an overly affectionate person.

"This is Lous" Orion said quietly, indicating to the goblin at his side. "He is here to run the ancestry test to see if Harry is really telling the truth."

James didn't know if he wanted Harry to be telling the truth or not.

"Does he need to be awake for this?" Regulus asked.

The goblin shook his head no. "It won't be necessary, I will just make a small cut on his finger, the blood will drip on to this parchment and tell us everything we wish to know about the young man."

Without further ado Lous moved forward as he pulled out a small blade. Harry flinched and let out a small whine in his sleep as his finger was cut and blood started to drip onto the parchment. Regulus healed the wound as soon as he could, pulling Harry closer as he glared at the goblin.

Lous walked to the end of the bed and laid the parchment flat, waiting.

The blood laid flat on the page doing nothing, and Orion was worried that it hadn't worked. Just as he was about to ask what the problem was the blood soaked into the page and words began to appear. Everyone but Regulus, who was still holding Harry, crowded closer to see.

Harry James Potter

Born: 31st July 1980

Mother: Lily Evans

Father: James Potter

Godfather: Sirius Black

Godmother: Alice Selwyn

"So, it's true" Lord Potter whispered, "he's my grandson." Lady Potter started crying beside him.

"That means that there is the possibility that everything Harry told us is true." Orion said, a calculating look gleaming in his eyes.

"Word cannot leave here about who he is, he would have a target painted on him from every witch or wizard wishing an insight into their future." Lord Potter said.

"He will also need to be questioned further once he is awake and feeling better" Orion said.

Lord Potter approached Harry, running his hand through the unruly locks, his eyes glistening, "my grandson." He turned to look at James a large grin on his face, but James was still to shocked to really process anything beside the fact that he had a son.

"Thank you for your service Lous, please deduct the fee from my vault" Orion said formally, effectively dismissing the goblin, who left with a short bow.

"We should retire to the study and discuss this" Orion said indicating for Lord and Lady Potter to follow.

The adults left again, leaving the teenagers alone and in shock.

"My son" James whispered. He sat down on the bed beside Regulus and pulled the slight teen into his own arms. They were a similar age, but Harry was so much smaller.

"Do you think it's true? That in his time we're all dead" Remus asked quietly.

"I do" James said, Sirius and Regulus nodded in agreement.

"Just what the hell have you been through?" James muttered, running his hand through his son's dark locks.

He was completely flabbergasted thinking of the teen in his arms as his son from the future but, right now he would just focus on being there for the younger teen; that's what matters.

"What's going to happen now?" Sirius asked.

"I would say that father is currently in a very serious discussion with Lord and Lady Potter, on exactly how they can prevent the future Harry has come from, from happening" Regulus said. "I'd say when he is feeling better there will be talks about exactly what happens in the future."

"Wait, should we maybe be looking at ways to send Harry back to future? He might not want to stay in this time after all" Sirius said logically.

James frowned and pulled Harry closer, but Regulus just shook his head.

"That's not how time travel works."

"Like you're the expert in time travel" Sirius snarked back.

Regulus just rolled his eyes, "not an expert, no, but I do occasionally pick up a book. There have been few instances of people travelling back in time but none of people going forward. The Ministry believes that when someone goes back in time it creates an alternate timeline. This alternate timeline branches away from the original, so even if we did somehow find a way to send Harry back to the future, it wouldn't be the same future that he had left behind."

James, Sirius and Remus all looked shocked at the announcement.

"So, he's stuck here?" Remus asked.

"Yes" Regulus said bluntly.

"We will have to make sure we're there for him, help him to adjust. We're all he has now" James said with a sad little smile.

Everyone nodded solemnly, even Regulus.
