Chapter One: They're Alive?!

"CEDRIC! NO...no..." Harry screamed as he wrenched up gasping for air. He glanced at the door. Heavy footsteps sounded from behind the door. Harry Jumped out of bed, simultaneously wincing in pain as he aggitated some wounds.

The Door rattled as the locks were unlocked. The door burst open, Harry could do nothing but stare in horror.

"YOU!" Vernon yelled as he grabbed Harry by his shirt. "You wake me up one more time...and...you will be begging to die!" He said tersely before punching him and kicking him a couple of times in the stomach. "No food for a week, you FREAK!" He added before he slammed the door shut after leaving.

Harry was left on the floor gasping for air and coughing up blood there and there.

~At The Graveyard~

Lily Potter gasped for breath as she tried to sit up banging her head on something hard. She looked around and saw complete darkness. She tried to reach around, on one side she hit a wall and on the other she felt something suspiciously like a body.

Through all her heavy breathing she hadn't realised someone was also gasping for air.

The fogginess left Lily and she remembered everything. James... Harry... Voldemort. Involuntary she let out a strangled cry and instinctly reached for her wand. "Lumos" she gasped. "L-Lily?" James croaked when he saw her face being lit up by her wand light. James grabbed his wand and shouted or atleast tried to shout "Bombarda!"

"James! Harry... he...*sob* Voldemort *sob* killed him *sob* " Lily sobbed. James gazed at Lily, his eyes glazed before muttering "He...No...I'm sorry...Couldn't... Peter." They stared at eachother for awhile.

James shook his head and lit his wand before climbing out of the hole he had created. Lily followed behind, her sobs still echoing in the now still air.

James pointed his wand around, scouting out for any sign of danger. Satistfied, he looked back at the box thing they came out of. His heart dropped as he realised what it was. His mouth ran dry as he read the words engraved on the tombstone.

"J-James?" Lily hesitated, not believing her eyes.

"Where's H-Harry's name?" She continued

"I don't know."

James and Lily walked on, holding onto the last drop of hope left. They soon reached the statue of them and with a teary eyed glance they continued onwards towards their cottage.

~At The Dursleys~

Harry coughed up some more blood before wearily getting up and sitting cross-legged down on his so called 'bed'. He tugged up his shirt sleeves to reveal a series of scars and fresh cuts littering his pale arms.

He examined them before he slid his hand underneath the pillow and grabbed his razor blade. Harry watched as the gleaming moon light reflected off the surface of the metal. He found it fascinating when his razor shined against the moonlight with fresh blood. His tainted blood on the knife.

Harry glanced at his wrists then back to the razor before slowly slicing the metal against his gaunt skin. Harry slightly eased up as his demons slowly bubbled out. Harry cut twice more before finally putting it down and getting lost in his thoughts once more.

~At The Graveyard~

James and Lily both gasped as they saw the blown apart house. They neared closer and saw a plaque on it and in gold letters, was written,

On this spot, on the night of 31 October 1981,

Lily and James Potter lost their lives.

Their son, Harry, remains the only wizard

ever to have survived the Killing Curse.

This house, invisible to Muggles, has been left

in its ruined state as a monument to the Potters

and as a reminder of the violence that tore apart their family.

"HE'S ALIVE!" Lily thundered with joy. James couldn't help but grin. "Lily, we need to get to Dumbeldore and well...You know tell him we are alive and get to Harry as soon as possible." James said and they held hands while they apparated to a side street in Hogsmeade.

"James, wouldn't it be weird if we just showed up out of nowhere and just walked down the street, I know it's dark but..."Lily asked and James only smilled. He pulled up his hood and motioned for Lily to follow, shortly Lily did the same. James led them to Honeydukes and when the cashier wasn't looking went down the stairs and then into a secret passage.

They walked on for a while until they reached the end of the passage. James and Lily halted as they listened for any sign of anyone. "Must be summer as sweet old Filchy was always roaming around this hallway. I think he got suspicious of us." James whispered before walking towards Dumbeldore's office, with Lily following.

They reached the gargoyle and James started guessing,

"Chocolate Frogs"

"Pumpkin Pasties"

"Berttie Botts Every Flavour Beans"

"Twix" Lily added.

"What are those?"James asked

"Muggle sweets"She replied

"Oh yea, Dumbeldore loved that certain muggle sweet.I remember making our own version of those and swapping it out with his so when he ate one his hair changed a diffrent colour. But what were they called?...Ah yes, Lemon Drops."

With that the Gargoyle jumped aside letting them enter. James victoriously grinned before following Lily up the stairs. Hazel and Emerald eyes gazed at eachother before Lily nodded and James knocked. "Enter" was the curt reply.James wearily opened the door.

Curses were fired their way. They both dodged the first but were unlucky with the others. Both stood frozen.

Albus Dumbeldore strode towards the frozen figures and examined them both while casting various charms on them to figure out if they were imposters. They all came out negative. The old wizard shook his head before walking back to his desk and pulling out a vial with clear liquid.

He poured three drips onto James's tongue and revived him."Name?" Albus asked.

"James Fleamont Potter"

Albus blinked, there isn't much that can surprise the headmaster.

"Best Friends?"

"Sirius Black, Remus Lupin, P-P-Peter, no." James answered in his trance like state.

"What form does your animagus take?"

"A stag." Dumbeldore stared at him in shock before pouring three drops on Lily's tongue and reving her.

"Name?" he asked again.

"Lily Potter nee Evans"

"What form does your potronus take?"

"A doe" Lily answered.

"What year is it?"

"1981"Lily said.

Dumbeldore poured the antidote on their tongues.

"W-What?" James asked.

"Welcome back...Lily and James."

"What day is it and where is Harry?"Lily demanded.

"Harry is safe. Today is July 20th...1996"

"W-what" Lily and James asked gobsmacked.

"f-fifteen years?"Lily muttered.

"but how?" James asked.

"I was hoping you would tell me." Dumbeldore replied. With that they said what happened from when Voldemort attacked and when they woke up. Dumbeldore gave them a brief over look on the last fourteen years leaving out certain areas to let Harry tell them himself.

At The Dursley's

Harry sat there staring at the wall for ages, not really thinking about anything until he heard soft taps on the window. Harry glanced at the window and saw a Barn Owl.

He slowy rose up with a slight wince and walked over to the window. He opened it and slipped off the lettter and gave the owl an owl treat.

It read,

To Harry,

I hope you are well. I can't wait till you are able to come here. I can't say much but I thought I would write you a letter as I haven't written you a letter all summer. I apologize for that. I also hope you aren't falling back into old habits. It wasn't your fault that Cedric got killed. See you soon.

-Snuffles.

'See you soon',How long is see you soon? Well apparently long as it's been nearly 4 weeks and they are still using it but Harry couldn't help but hope it really is soon. He placed the letter down and opened his drawer to find all of his failed attempts to write down what was going on with him to only fall deeper into himself. Harry took out the last empty piece of parrchment before dotting down.

To Snuffles,

I'm fine.I also hope you are well. I'm not falling into old habits. See you soon,

-Harry

Short and simple, just the way Harry liked it. He rolled the paper up and tied it to the owl's leg before sending it off into the sun rise. Harry glanced at the clock, 4:53. July 20th, nine days to Harry's birthday.

~At The Headmaster's Office~

"So...Harry witnessed Voldemort's return and got away unharmed?" Asked a worried Lily.

"Yes, all the injuries were healed." was the simple reply of Albus Dumbeldore.

"I don't believe that...Physically yes but emotionally, like, he witnessed a classmate die!" James exclaimed.

"James, he is emotionally well and has lots of friends, a loving godfather and is generally happy all the time." Albus replied. Both Lily and James seemed to take the answer.

"And when can we meet him?" Lily asked.

"The earliest, tommorow. But for the time being you should reunite with your friends and reintroduce you to the Order." They both nodded. James opened his mouth to say something but was cut off by Dumbeldore. "You will be staying at Number 12 Grimauld Place. Sirius's family house and Order of The Phoenix Headquarters."

"Sirius's? But wait doesn't he hate that place?"James asked.

"Yes he does indeed but it was the only option. Alright, now let's get you to the headquarters." They both nodded and took the floo behind Dumbeldore.

~At 12 Grimmauld Place~

Sirius was sitting at the kitchen table sipping coffee next to Remus. It was only around 6am but the Weasley Twins were raining their experiments out on everyone last night and to say they wouldn't do it the following morning was an understatement.

The fire roared and Sirius jumped while Remus ramained sitting only looking up from his newspaper.

"Hello Sirius and Remus, Mind if I reintroduce you to someone?." Dumbeldore inquired.

"Ehh... Sure." They both replied. A bit of confusion clouding their features.

"Brilliant, Mind if I take your wands for this?"

"My wand?... Umm, Alright." Sirius said before handing his wand over and Remus following with aprehension. At that exact moment the fire roared again and out stepped James and Lily Potter.

Remus Jumped and went for his wand pocket till he realised he didn't have it.

Sirius mouth made the shape of an 'O' before he ragained composure.

"Hi?"James said and Lily smilled. "You aren't J-James and Evans."Sirius whispered.

"Yes we are"James stated.

"Actually we aren't because I'm Potter now."Lily added.

"But your suppose to be DEAD!" Sirius roared.

"Yes we are supposed to... but we aren't" James said.

"I DON'T BELIEVE YOU!" Sirius thundered.

"Turn into Prongs." Remuse said in a quiet desperate voice behind Sirius.

James smilled and turned into Prongs. Sirius dead fainted and Remus gaped disbelievingly. James turned back and Lily said, "Mishief Managed." That was the last straw for Remus before he too joined Sirius on the floor.

"Enervate" was the simple reply of Dumbeldore before he quietly whisked off. Both men on the floor flicked their eyes open and looked around before they set their eyes on James.

"It really is true." Remus said before Sirius lunged on James and gave him a bear hug while Remus politely hugged Lily before enveloping James in the same hug Sirius had let go off moments ago.

Sirius and Remus weren't ashamed of letting tears shed.After some time they took the converstation to Sirius's room where they continued talking in more of a private setting. They weren't after all alowed to let the Weasley's know just yet.

After about an hour of conversation an owl flew in and landed on Sirius's knee with a talon out with a small letter attached to it.

Sirius read it quickly and gave an exasperated sigh. "What's wrong Padfoot?"James asked.

"Nothing, just Harry." He replied.

"Oh, Can I see?" James and Lily asked at the same time. Sirius threw the letter over and Lily and James read it.

"His writing is astrocious" James commented.

"Not like you can say much." Remus replied. Lily looked up skeptically.

"Old Habits? What Old Habits can sound so bad?" Lily asked while James nodded vigorously. "At the momment I wo-can't tell you." Sirius replied.

"Mooney?" James asked.

"No idea what 'old habits' mean."

"He doesn't d-drink does he?" Lily asked quietly.

"Don't worry he definitely doesn't but I wouldn't say he hasn't tried it yet while hanging around the Weasley twins." Sirius said. Remus chuckled lightly while James and Lily looked at eachother confused.

"So, who's staying here in Gr-your family home?" Lily asked.

"There's the Weasleys which consist of Molly and Arthur, then the twins, Fred and George, Ron, Ginny and occasionally Bill and Charlie." Sirius said.

"And there's Draco Malfoy." Remus added.

"Malfoy?! Like Luscius Malfoy's son?"James exclaimed outraged to which Sirius and Remus nodded.

"Why is he here?" James asked a few moments later with outrage still clinging on his words.

"He refused to follow his father's footsteps...and was -deep sigh- badly abused when he showed up at Dumbeldore." Remus said.

"Abused? No wonder, his father was a git."


A/N: I wrote this Fanfic and the next seven chapters a little under a year ago but I have only now published the first chapter . I'm currently editing the chapters to see why I never actually finished it but I think it was due to it dwindling off the line of the plot I had originally planned, which I currently can't remember so...yea. I will try and figure it out and see what happend and possibly rewrite the chapters to better aim for my objectives. I have also ommited the ship Wolfstar from this Fanfic which was originally here as I don't want to overload the story with gay characters. *Wink* There's more Lgbt characters.

Thanks for reading,
