The Blacks cautiously moved towards the pensive before diving in. The Potter children looked towards their mother who nodded at them before they to joined the Black family with Rose and Sakura helping little Lily and Sylvia get into the pensive. Lily was feeling hesitant before looking at Harry who was staring at her with a small hint of sadness. Finally she moved towards the pensive as well and dived in.

Chapter 15: The Truth Will Set You Free

When Harry saw all of them enter the Pensive, he let himself relax before summoning his trunk of equipment and taking out his battle gear. Though he usually wore his dragon hide armor, today he would go with a new set he crafted before being brought to this dimension.

The black undershirt and pants were weave from the skin of the Nemean lion that he found in the lands of Greece, in an old temple dedicated to the greek hero Heracles or Hercules. The skin had been soaked with the blood of the Basilisk that he killed in his second year and finely grinned Horned Tailed scales thanks to Charlie Weasley.

This made for clothes that were almost indestructible and highly magic resistant.

The black boots had diamond dust mixed into its surface and goblin steel.

The emerald green coat that run to his thighs was made using the essence of a dead Dementor, ashes of a phoenix that had gone through its burning day, and the skin of a dying Dire Wolf he ran across during his travels through Russia. It had the same properties as his pants and shirt though what made it unique was that since the essence of darkness and the pureness of a phoenix were present, it allowed him to be better attune to darkness and white magic with the essence of the wolf acting as a balancer.

This gave him the edge to be able to expand his mind more during battle without losing focus and control of his magic.

Next he took out the Sword of Gryffindor and laid it next to Nyx. He was glad to have practiced dual wielding or else he'll have a hard time using two unique swords like these.

Then he removed his gun holster belt with Eve and Lilith, two desert eagles crafted from mithril and the essence of two of the closes women to him besides Ginny. The essence had to be willing given in order to use mithril as a foci source since the essence would in a way give life to the non living material.

Ollivander had been tight lipped about this secret before Harry convinced him to tell him. This had allowed him to keep the two women in a sense by his side. They could communicate but only through his mindscape, but that was enough to have these two as support when things had gotten rather hard for him to bare.

Though they were still in a state of sleep after his final battle with Voldemort we're there essence was almost exhausted completely, now he could feel them beginning to stir from their slumber.

With everything laid out, he started to take off his current attire and put on his battle armor.

A few minutes later after putting his gear on and running diagnostic spells and activating some hidden charms on his attire, he hooked the scarabs for his swords on his back and clipped his holster belt back on.

Then he activated his contacts special features like thermal and night vision with magnification for long and short range sight enhancement. God did he love his contacts and his aunty Perenelle who made them for him.

She had done so after witnessing a few practice sessions were either his uncle Nicolas would find a way to summon his glasses and leave him almost blind or just destroy them causing Harry have to transfigure or find some way to replace them.

His aunty had lectured him that his glasses were a disadvantage that anyone could exploit and cause him his life in battle and he knew she was right. The number of times he had had to stop to clean or even repair his glasses was time given to the enemy to strike him, so after some talking his aunty made his contacts that were self maintained using his magic and unsummonable.

With his gear checking out ready for use, he equipped his swords into their scarabs. Then he summoned some cleaning tools for his pistols and started to clean them since the group of his family and friends were still in the Pensive.

He also didn't want his lady friends to rip into him for not maintaining their vessels while they slept. They might not be able to hurt him physically but mentally those two were a force of destruction that knew exactly how to get under his skin.

He took his time cleaning every single piece until they were shining like new. This took him a good half hour to do before from the corner of his eye, he saw ripples start to form on the surface of the Pensive. Finishing assembling his pistols back together, he returned them to their holster and prepared himself to face whatever fate the Potters deemed appropriate for having fooled them for the last year and a half by pretending to be there Harry.

The first to come out was Sirius who was greeted with the sight of a blanked faced Harry. He was about to say something when he saw Harry shift his sight to the Pensive again. He turned to meet with his wife who was looking at Harry sadly before they looked at each other and waited for the rest to gather. Soon the Black children left the Pensive and formed around Sirius and Amy with them looking at Harry from time to time.

Yuna herself was fidgeting as she tried to look at him when she thought he wasn't looking though Amy saw this and put her hand on her shoulder while smiling at her daughter.

Then the moment of truth had come as the Potters were leaving the pensive as well.

The first to arrive were Rose and Sakura who had Leon in between them. Then finally came the person Harry was most nervous and scared to face carrying little Lily and Sylvia who looked like they had been crying; Lily looking almost dead.

She slowly put down little Lily and Sylvia while sweeping her gaze around her children before turning to face Harry. When she saw him, her tears suddenly started falling before she charged at him.

Harry seeing her dashing at him did nothing and prepared to take whatever she unleashed on him as he was tackled to the floor with Lily now straddling his waist.

However what happened next he wasn't expecting as she buried her face in his neck sobbing and thanking him over and over again.

Harry was frozen stiff at this, wasn't she supposed to be angry at him. He had been masquerading as her son. When he couldn't seem to answer his own question, he decided to voice it to the person in question.

"Why are you thanking me? You should be angry with me, you should hate me. For the last year and a half I've been parading around as your son. I even killed your husband more than an hour ago. I don't deserve thanks, I deserve your anger, your hate. I should be the last person you'll ever want to s…" He was cut off by a finger being placed on his lips by Lily who had straighten herself upright looking down at Harry with tears still running down her eyes and a smile on her face.

If he was confused before, now he was even more so. Before he continued his rant, Lily beat him to it first.

"Please listen and don't interrupt me until I'm done ok." Lily asked Harry who answered with a nod. "Yes I should be angry and I am, but not at you. You are a victim just as the rest of us. You were brought here to fight a battle that isn't yours to fight and be used like some tool. The one to blame for my child's death is fate, the bitch who feels like intervening at her convenience, who cares nothing for those that she hurts."

"As for why I'm thanking you, well how could I not. If you hadn't decided to stay and fight then the fate originally planned for us would have happened. I would have lost one of my children to be tormented inside those monsters of Dementors and the rest of my children wouldn't have even lived to become young adults. It burns me on the inside that I was so weak, so powerless to save my own children. To allow such a fate to befall them, it makes me hate myself, that I don't des…" Now it was Harry who sat up while Lily slid from his waist to his thighs.

He then hugged her as he said, "Don't talk like that. Your a wonderful mother who her children love dearly. I know you would have done everything in your power so protect them but how could anyone expect you to fight at your best when you had been just told that one of your children was damned for eternity while coming out of a marriage of 14 years with the man you considered your soul mate."

"A person can only handle so much and you had already had your mind plagued by the deaths of the Blacks. You were lucky to have been able to put up a fight at all. So don't fall into that spiral of self doubt and hate, because now you have a second chance to protect your friends and family."

"And I'll be here by your side to protect you all and make sure that you all live long and fulfilling lives, this I swear on my very soul." Harry said as he gently cupped Lily's chin to stare directly into her eyes.

Lily was having a hard time taking in everything that she learned from Harry's memory with the Time Guardian. She blamed herself for the fate of her children. She was their mother who was suppose to protect them yet she had failed.

If it wasn't for the alternate Harry deciding to stay, then her family would have been killed off within the next two years.

Harry, now that was what had her conflicted the most. She had at first been angry that this alternate of her son had little regard for impersonating a dead person. But as she listened on to the conversation between Harry and the Guardian, she came to realize that he really had no fault in the situation.

He was brought here against his will and without any explanation to play a role that by what she gather he had no idea how to handle. He was forced to adapt and learn what he could little by little because he obviously couldn't just tell anyone that he was in an alternate dimension with no idea on the fate of the original Harry. No, Harry had done more than was expected when he could have let things be.

Even when he was given the option to return, he stayed to protect them. As far as she was concerned, Harry had won her eternal gratitude and though two mere words aren't enough to convey it, she would spend the rest of her life repaying him.

So when he lifted her face and made that daring vow, it was hard not to feel her heart beating as it wanted to jump in her hands to be presented to what she perceived as her knight. As she stared at his eyes that were like an endless sea of green that reflected her own green eyes, she was snapped out of her thoughts when coughing was heard.

In synch, both Harry and Lily turned to the source only to see a grinning Sirius and smiling Amy though Lily recognized that smile as mischievous. Before she could halt whatever her friend was planning Amy spoke up first with a grin now forming on her face, "Now that we have cleared up this rather strange situation how about we try to deal with whats going on the outside of this place and leave the kissing and making up for later in the privacy of own bedrooms."

Lily was looking at her strangely when she heard Harry chuckling . When she turned to face him with a raised eyebrow, he merely looked down. Lily following his gaze finally realized what they were referring to. During the time that they were talking, their moving around had put them in quite the intimate position with Lily sitting on Harry's lap with her legs wrapped around him and her core right on top of his member.

It took a bit before Lily's face was as red as her hair. When she tried to sit up, she ended up running her hands across his chest and almost let out a small moan. God how she wanted to run her hands on his hard chest but she withstood.

When Harry saw Lily trying to get up, he decided to help her since she still had her beautiful ivory colored, mile long legs around his waist. It was taking every ounce of self control to keep himself from running his hands over those sinfully delicious works of art and kissing this goddess on top of him. So with a bit of magic he floated them to their feet and looked at Lily who had yet to release him.

"Not that I mind, and really I don't. If it was up to me, I would rather keep you like this but I think we should listen to Amy for now, don't you think my Fiery Goddess." Harry teasingly stated.

Lily could only blush harder as she had yet to untangle herself from Harry. As he grabbed her from her back so she could loosen herself, she maneuvered her feet to the ground before stepping back a bit from Harry.

Amy not wanting to miss the chance to mess with Lily said with amusement, "Took you long enough, I was afraid I'll had to ask Sirius here for a crowbar just to pry you off Harry."

Lily was now resembling a tomato at Amy's comment before she pulled herself together and sent her a look that said payback was going to be a bitch. Amy could only smirk at this before they heard barking laughter from both Sirius and Harry. Amy could do nothing more then join them as well as the kids who had watched silently until now.

Lily however was the only one not amused and needed to vent her anger which luckily, she could do since the cause of all this was standing besides her. So with years of experience and a bit of magic, she slapped Harry behind the head while he was still laughing.

"Hey, what was that for." He pouted like a child.

Lily taken her legendary stance of hands on hips spoke sternly with a bit of amusement, "Because of your antics everyone is laughing at me, even my own children. I have half a mind to curse you from here until you're nothing but an old man playing bingo in a retirement home."

Harry was sweating a bit now. If there was one thing he knew about Lily, it was that she could deliver threats like that one and mean it. However he was not about to show his fear so he decided to flip the tables on her.

"Why Lily, you offend me?" He said dramatically with a hand on his chest. When all he got was silence and a raised brow from Lily he forged on. "When I'm an old man, I plan to retire to France and live the rest of my years within the heavenly graces of the veela who have already prepared for the day when I join them. After all who can say no to the pleadings of such fine, sophisticated, and gorgeous group of women." Finished Harry as he glanced at a blushing Yuna and amused Amy.

Red was all Lily could see as she imaged all those French huskies all over her Harry. Preparing to rip into Harry she was however stopped when he had embraced her.

"However I guess now I'll have to send them a notice of my declinement. After all how can I pass up the opportunity to spend the rest of my time with my Goddess, even if it's a life of being cursed." Harry gently proclaim to her.

That was all it took to shut Lily down and turned her cheeks red before puffing them out at Harry.

This Harry, she finally noticed after a year and a half always knew what to say to her. She could never stay mad at him because he always found some way to get back under her good side. He was also the only one who could stop any argument she might have or shut it down when she got rolling which other people found impossible.

Lily used all her willpower not to look at Amy's direction as she could feel her amusement from even were she was but she knew that she would be cornered later by the veela just the same.

Though for now she was enjoying the calming effect of Harry's embrace. Too much had happened today and there was still more to do before the day was over. Her body was filled with stress and she was going to take any relaxation she could get though her children had a different idea.

Little Lily had been patiently waiting but no more. Her mum was hogging Harry all to herself and she was not letting her have her Harry time, so with a bit of wiggling to free herself from Rose who had been holding her, she ran to Harry. Harry who had been dealing with Lily, forgot the rest of his family which is why he wasn't surprised at the charging little redhead who had his left leg within her grasps and trying to put an angry face but failing or the black haired girl that took his right leg in her grip. Soon the rest of the Potters followed their younger siblings example.

Now Lily was the one amused as her children had trapped Harry. Harry saw the look on her face and said mocking angry, "You find something hilarious my Fiery Goddess."

Lily only giggled as she looked at Harry. "You have nowhere to go so you might as well face them now my Black Knight."

Harry raised an eyebrow at that. "Black Knight huh? I like it actually. Besides I'm not the only one trapped here you know." Harry emphasized by giving her a small squeeze.

Lily about to retort was cut off by little Lily who was puffing her cheeks and making cute little angry noises. Harry seeing this let Lily go before asking the two youngest Potters to free his legs. Said Potters were staring at Harry before letting go but ready to give chase. Smiling, Harry knelt, coming face to face with his siblings. When he saw that he had all his siblings attention he spoke loud and clear to them.

"Before anything else can be said, let me apologize for having kept you all in the dark about who I really was. It was not my intention to trick you but buy myself time to figure out what had happened to me. Now just in case you didn't understand what was going on in the memory you saw earlier I'll explain."

"Think of life as a tree. Now a tree when it grows starts to make branches and those branches have even smaller branches. Well in this situation think of my world as one branch while your world is another branch. We both started out the same but soon we split up just like a tree has branches going in different directions ok." Harry checked to make sure his siblings understood. When he saw that they did as well as the Black children who were listening along with their parents and Lily continued.

"Now as we came to a certain point in time or like how a tree reaches a certain height before it starts to split away so did are worlds. In your case it was when Voldemort had attacked the Longbottoms. In my case it was when he attacked my family. As you can guess, here Neville was herald as the 'Boy Who Lived' after surviving the now known residue of death magic. I, in my dimension survived only because of my mother who used old magic powered by the opposite emotion of the killing curse, love."

"My salvation however came at the price of my parents death. From then until now, the events that took place varied in some cases greatly like for example the Sirius of this dimension actually got himself a wife and kids living the family man life which really surprised me because well, his Sirius." Harry joked as a cry of indignation was heard behind him and the laughter of the rest.

After they had their laughs, Sirius now wanted to know about the life of his counter part. "So how did the me of your dimension live his life... without such a wonderful woman by his side." Sirius asked though he had to amend his question when he saw the look his wife was given him.

Harry too saw the look Amy sent Sirius way before he answered his question though he looked pained in doing so.

"Unfortunately not so good. I never learned much about your time before my birth or after it because after the mess with Voldemort attacking and having the killing curse rebounded on him, the one to find me was Sirius who was quite clearly affected by his friends deaths. So when Hagrid on Dumbledore's orders came to take me, Sirius didn't put much of a fight and left to find the traitorous rat Pettigrew which he did. They had a small altercation before Pettigrew caused an accident that resulted in twelve dead mundanes and cut off his own finger before escaping. When the aurors arrived, they found Sirius in the middle of the mess laughing."

"That was all they need in order to bring him in and charge him with the mundane deaths and betraying the Potters since it was made to believe that he was the secret keeper to the Potters and was incarcerated in Azkaban for the next twelve years before he escaped. Through working around false information and clearing up misunderstandings by the end of my third year I had gained a godfather though I couldn't spend much time with him since he was still wanted by the Ministry."

"By the end of my fifth year though he lost his life trying to protect me. I had barely gotten to know the man I came to see as a father before he was taken from me. Sirius, a word of advice, there are times to be brave and then there are times when one must retreat. They may call you a coward but at least your wife will still have her husband and your kids will have their father." Harry stated at Sirius who was looking, well serious.

The kids looked really to burst into tears though the adults were deep in thought. They could hear the pain and suffering in Harry's voice as he told them of the other Sirius's fate. Lily was even more concerned. She wondered just what type of life Harry lived and what his story was until arriving in this dimension.

"Anyway enough about that. Don't worry about me because now I have all of you, right?" Harry said sensing the mood falling.

They looked at him before smiling. Yes they were going to do everything possible to make sure he had all the happiness they could give, though Lily was going to make sure that he would enjoy himself more with them and give him the family he deserved.

Little Lily though just hugged Harry and kissed him on the nose as he was embraced. The rest of the Potters did the same with Leon only patting him on the back. Harry was graceful but he had a doubt that he wished to bring up.

"Thank you but aren't you mad at me?" He asked.

Little Lily and Sylvia just tightened their hold on him and shook their heads. The twins answered with a no and Leon waved it away. God was he ever graceful that he had such mature and amazing siblings.

"Big brother has been nice and always played with us. We still like you so don't leave." Little Lily said.

"Yeah you're awesome and you like taking care of us." Sylvia added happily before she frowned as Harry messed with her hair.

I prefer the you who wants to hang out with us and is cool to be with." Leon coolly put in.

"You may not be our Harry but you're still the big brother we love." Rose said.

"We like the you who cares and loves us better than the one who ignored us." Sakura finished.

Harry was glad they still saw him as family though there was one thing to clear up. "I want you all to know that everything I have ever told you is true. I care and cherish you all deeply. But I would like to make one thing clear and that's that even though he acted like he did, your Harry did love you all. He just acted like he did because of the pressure James put on him to be a better heir and representative of the Potter family. And yes being an heir is a lot of pressure and especially for families like the Potters and the Blacks though Sirius is more laid back about such things. Everything you do is reflected back at your family and that is viewed by the rest of the wizardry populace as the state of one's house. Now there's one last thing I would like to clear up, and that's that I am the one who killed James your father. Are you all ok with me even knowing this?"

"He was going to kill us wasn't he?" Surprisingly Leon asked.

Harry could only nod sadly at such a question.

"Then he deserved what you did for that type of betrayal." Leon said with the others only nodding along.

Harry took a second to study them closely before turning to Lily who agreed with them. When he looked at Sirius all he said was that they were good.

Smiling he took each of his sisters and kissed them on the cheek while shaken hands with Leon.

"Thank you for welcoming me to your family. Now then time for business." Harry stated shifting his face to a blank one. The rest were surprised but understood that they still had a situation on hand.

"I know you have questions for me but we'll save that for tomorrow. Right now we still have death eaters and a dark lord to deal with. The stasis bubble is about ready to pop since i made it on the fly with little amounts of magic. So when it does the children will remain here while the rest of us deal with the mess outside. Lily, you along with Amy and Sirius will take the wands I retook from Voldemort and return them to the guests and don't worry, I'll create the opening for you to do so. When they are armed take down any death eater you see with lethal means. I know you're not comfortable taking lives but it's either your or theirs. Lily please make sure to keep Bellatrix distracted while I deal with Voldemort and before you say anything, yes I am the only one who can deal with this abomination. Right now he can easily kill Dumbledore or Amelia and these are two people who are essential in the future struggle against Voldemort and his cronies in the Ministry."

"One more thing, I will put a special spell of mine on you all that will prevent anyone from reading your mind or using any mind altering means on you. It will also stop the effects of the truth serum. For now, the rest of the world will think that I am two different people, the current me and the Harry of this dimension. When you see them, you can tell them about the stasis bubble we were in and how we had only been introduced and you managed to explain the situation to me and convinced me to help. And before you ask why I don't tell them the truth, it's because them knowing about possible future events could change them and we would lose our advantage so that's why we will go through this whole charade." Harry clarified.

The others nodded. They knew that Harry knew what he was doing so they would follow his plan.

"So is that why you're armed to the teeth." Sirius asked though his eyes were on the pair of pistols.

"Yeah, I'm going to show the world why you don't mess with me and live to tell about it." He answered.

Soon the adults were each carrying the taken wands while preparing to jump into the mess outside when Lily asked an important question.

"How are going to explain our Harry's disappearance?" She asked.

Harry while pulling out his pistols answered, "I will tell them only that I am an alternate Harry Potter who is currently fused with the Harry Potter of this dimension and I am using my own soul and life force to keep myself alive. The cause was an space alteration spell gone wrong on my end that brought me here. This way I can be seen openly with all of you without getting the Ministry and others to bother us too much. And the Guardians gift should help when I want to be your Harry or be the current me." He said.

The adults were looking at him in awe. This plan would in essence allow for both Harry's to move around in social circles that carried limitations like being able to attend Hogwarts longer in his younger version and free reign within the wizarding world of politics in his older version. All this and the only ones to know that know Harry is one in the same person will be them.

"Ok people it's show time so let's put those acting skills to use. And sorry in advance but you kids won't be able to see what's happening outside since this is an adults show only. But don't worry you'll soon be joined by the other kids out there and the non combatants." Harry explained.

With that he aimed his pistol ahead as the stasis bubble finally popped and he disappeared from his spot in a burst of speed only to appear in front of the death eaters before firing two Bombarda Maximums into the gathered death eaters. This created the opening needed for Lily and her two friends to dash to the guests who were staring at Harry in awe and a bit of fear.

"Please ignore him for now and take your wand. He will deal with Voldemort while we deal with the rest. He also said that we should use lethal means against the death eaters though you may choose not too. However if a death eater that you chose not to kill should end up killing another of the guests then he will kill that death eater and you. Now hurry and move the kids to the protective dome he made along with all those who can't fight." Lily said.

Most of the guest paled at the threat of the stranger though some understood that it needed to be done. Dumbledore being one against such actions voiced his thoughts aloud.

"And who might he be to say such things or to make those types of threats my dear."

Lily who laid out the wands she was carrying turned to her former headmaster and answered his and the others curiosity.

"Making a magical vow on his magic and life, he claimed to be Harry James Potter, the 'Boy Who Lived' from where he's from and currently the strongest mage alive." Lily said while adding in the last part to emphasize Harry's current standing among them.

Wide eyes soon followed this declaration. To make an magical vow of that magnitude was considered foolish but the stranger was alive and considering who Lily was, they had no reason not to believe her.

What surprised them more was why he had made such a vow. How can he be Harry Potter when Harry Potter was twelve and was killed just a while ago. Even more preposterous was that he claimed to be the 'Boy Who Lived', when the one to hold that title was next to them fuming about someone trying to steal his title. When they looked towards him as he was now firing his muggle weaponry while in the middle of the group of death eaters, they saw just above his right green eye a lighting bolt scar. The one to find a reasonable conclusion was Dumbledore as he gained a twinkle in his eyes and the future of the wizarding world now looked hopeful.

"His from an alternate reality. That's the only explanation to him being who he says to be." Dumbledore explained.

"But if that's true how did he get here Albus?" Amelia Bones asked as she watched the stranger now named Harry Potter kill off more death eaters.

Dumbledore only looked to Lily who needed to get them moving so she just said, "Look, we didn't have much time to talk because his stasis field had a time limit. All we got was who he was. Afterwards he told us that he was working with a new method of travel that involved bending space when suddenly he was pulled by an invisible force until he felt like something smashed into his body before arriving here. When he had checked, it turned out to be our Harry who was in suspended animation but dying so the other Harry used his limited knowledge on soul magic and fused himself with our Harry. Right now our Harry is recovering inside the other Harry by borrowing from his life force and taken small amounts of the other Harry's soul which is small enough to regenerate later by itself. After learning that our Harry was safe, we managed to convince him to help which he gladly agreed to though he said that he was doing it his way."

Dumbledore's twinkle increased ever so. To have that type of knowledge and power to pull off dimensional travel even if accidental on top of saving someone who had been dealt the killing curse at such a young age, it was incredible! He even claimed to be a mage. He finally caught a break. He knew he needed to play his cards right to get this Harry to stay and fight against Voldemort and his raising forces.

Amelia, too had the same thoughts as Dumbledore but she planned on asking for assistance. She knew something like this would soon happened and here they were with the dark lord temporarily alive again until he found a permanent solution and his death eaters who have started to grow in numbers again. Hopefully by being witness to all the chaos of today, Fudge would increase the funding to her department and help get more future aurors on the force and trained.

Lucius Malfoy was quietly listening to everything been said. He needed to gather as much information as possible for his dark lord. He was originally suppose to stay with the guests in case something went wrong and to retain his place within the Ministry. Though at first he was upset about being denied the opportunity to serve along side his master, now his was graceful his luck had saved him from joining the rest of his comrades who were dropping dead around this other Harry Potter. As Lucius continued his inner monologue, he failed to notice his wife who was staring at Harry hopefully.

The rest of the guests were having thoughts around the same line as Dumbledore and Amelia though some of the females who saw Harry as more than a friend were relieved that he was alive though they couldn't keep their eyes off of the other older Harry. If this is what he would look like in a few years then they knew they had their work cut out for them.

Lily mostly ignored the guests except for the females who were eyeing her Harry like a piece of meat. They can look all they want but they will never have what she shares with Harry and she'll be damned if one of these huskies thinks they can sink their claws into her Harry. As his Goddess, it's her job to look after him and that's what she'll do.

When everybody finally had their wand, Lily whistled loudly to get Harry's attention while everyone else were appalled by her unlady like action. When Harry heard her, he took aim at the ground and fire an Aguamenti bullet spell filling the floor around him with water before jumping in the air and firing a lightning spell bullet that spread to the death eaters in the water killing some and paralyzing others. With a burst of speed he disappeared from the air and appeared besides Lily.

"So you're done passing back their sticks. Good because it looks like Moldyshorts over there is eyeing me like a piece of candy and it's freaking me out. I feel like my innocence is in danger the longer he's around, so i'll like to deal with him while you lot play with his death munchers." Harry proclaimed.

Most of the gathered guests were snickering at the nicknames while Lucius looked ready to blow his top. Others like Sirius, Amy, Amelia and Lily are laughing out loud though Sirius was more vocal about it.

Dumbledore could only shake his head. He was disappointed in the way alternate Harry was treating the situation that was a serious matter.

Perenelle only had a small smile on her face. She wanted to laugh but she had to keep face in front of these people but once she got home she couldn't wait to share this with Nicolas. God only knew he could use some entertainment in his fading moments.

"Good you're finally out of your depressive state. Now listen, you don't know me and I only know some of you from my dimension like the lovely Madame Bones which reminds me, are you still head of the DMLE?" Harry asked.

Amelia seeing the attention was now on her answered, "I am, is that a problem?"

Harry let out a sigh of relief, "No just checking, needed to make sure I can still have an excuse to visit my charming Firecracker."

Amelia for the first time since her days in Hogwarts blushed. Now that was a surprise. Many suitors have asked for her hand and all have left with a rejection and low self esteem. Amelia was considered one of the top ice queens that few could match. Only family ever got to see any type of emotion on her and yet here was Harry cracking her ice like persona within a minute of meeting her. Sirius was sudden wiping away a tear of joy. His godson was making him so proud with already gaining so much female attention and especially from those considered impossible to woo.

Harry was confused about all the sudden fuzz and then the angry glare from Lily which was soon followed by Amelia. Red heads sure are scary when they start glaring and worse when it's more than one.

"Well don't know what's got your panties in a bundle but let's continue shall we. As I said I'll deal with Voldy since right now he's too strong for anyone else. If you all understand then get to work people. I want to be finished as soon as possible since I have other things to do then deal with a seventy something year old man with daddy issues." Harry exclaimed as he looked towards Voldemort who looked enraged.

'Right werewolf body means enhanced senses like hearing. Well whatever' Harry thought as the guests after getting over their sudden fit of laughter charged at the group of disoriented death eaters.

Bellatrix on seeing Harry walking towards her master tried to fire a curse only for it to be intercepted by another spell. When she looked at who intervened, Lily Potter was there with a smirk.

"You and I have a score to settle." Lily said.

Bellatrix had a small frown before she smiled. Her master could handle himself and like the mudblood bitch said, they had a score to settle. With this the two women started their own battle.

Harry who had seen to the exchange between Lily and Bellatrix from the corner of his eye continued forward until he was a few feet from Voldemort.

"Wonderful night we have don't you think Tom." Harry stated as he decide to use Voldemort's true name.

Voldemort or Tom only scolded at this. There shouldn't be any alive besides Dumbledore who knew that name yet this boy did and he doubted Dumbledore was the one to tell him. Another mystery to add to this stranger calling himself Harry Potter.

"Yes it is but tell me, how do you know that name? And are you really Harry Potter?" Voldemort asked.

"As to your first question, I know more than just your name and for your second question yes I am Harry James Potter just not the one from this dimension but that's not important. What's important is that you came here with the intention to hurt people that are in a sense family and if there's one thing I can't stand is when my family is threaten. So prepare yourself because you're about to learn what happens to my enemies." Harry said before he opened fire with his pistols.

Voldemort seeing the muggle weapons, used his werewolf body to dodge the incoming barrage. He had witnessed the damage those weapons could do and especially when infused with magic so for now he was going to avoid been pinned by them.

Harry used controlled burst as he fired on Voldemort. For now he needed to test his opponent's limits. He couldn't risk underestimating someone like him. He always had a tendency to slip away when he felt cornered or pulling some stunt when you let your guard relax. Soon enough Voldemort was gliding around the ballroom getting in between other groups that were fighting. When Harry saw him about to move were Lily and Bellatrix were fighting, he put his pistols away and drew his swords.

Adding magic to his feet in rapid succession, soon Harry was swinging his blades down in an x pattern in front of Voldemort who dropped on his back to avoid the attack and rolled to the side with his claws sticking out together like a drill. Harry quickly swung his katana up diagonally stopping the claws while lunging his Gryffindor sword aiming towards Voldemort's chest only to catch the blade with his other clawed hand. It looked like Voldemort could smell the Basilisk venom as he tried not to touch the sword with his bare hand. They were in a deadlock as they kept adding pressure to break into each others guard before Voldemort jumped back, trying to disrupt Harry's balance, however Harry had seen through this and had jumped back at the same time.

There was a brief moment of stillness before they rushed at each other again. They were trading attack after attack trying in vain to slip each other's guard only to be countered by the other. Voldemort was surprised that someone could keep up with his werewolf body. Fenrir was known as the greatest werewolf in the last hundred years with his physical prowess being second to none. It was the one thing that had always caused Voldemort trouble when he fought Fenrir. It took him using his most dangerous spells like Fiendfyre just to pin down the mut. But now this body had the added benefit of Voldemort's magic to enhance the werewolf body to new heights. Yet in front of him was a young man, human by his smell, that could keep up with him.

This 'Harry Potter' had to be eliminated now before he lost his superior wolf body. With that thought in mind he looked to the groups still fighting and decided to use his earlier trick again. Harry was good with blades so he needed to take away this advantage and fighting in of crowd full of allies that could be caught in the path of his swords is something Harry would want to avoid if his earlier actions with the muggle weapons was any clue. And so Voldemort once again disengaged himself from Harry and glided into the fighting of the guests and death eaters.

Harry who had up until now even in deadlock with Voldemort, wasn't surprised at Voldemort's sudden retreat into the mix of fights going on around them. With a sigh he put away his swords and made them disappear into his pocket space. It was time to show Voldemort just what made him the strongest wizard to date. Cracking his knuckles, Harry too speed off after Voldemort.

As the guest and death eaters were fighting, they would occasionally feel a gust of wind or feel the area around them vibrate as they fought. Some guest were even seeing their death eater opponents drop out of the blue with odd injuries like holes through their chests or heads snapped to their sides. The guest were baffled as the knew the spells they were using couldn't do that level of damage but they shrugged it off for now and went to help their fellow guests with their opponents.

Dumbledore was together with his Hogwarts staff when he started to notice the strange deaths as well. He knew it wasn't his staff as he had been paying attention to their spell work. He had allowed them to use their more dangerous spells but asked to avoid killing if possible and that's what they were doing. He looked around and noticed it wasn't just his group either until he saw a small distortion of the place were Amelia and her aurors were at. As the battle field became less crowded, he started to notice more distortions and sudden bouts of gusts. Then he saw them just barely. He activated the magic in his glasses and even focuses his magic on his eyes but he saw them. Well more like blurs but the grey furred like shape and black and green colored blur were enough to tell him what or who they were. He watched as the guests had finally taken care of the death eaters thanks to their sudden drop in numbers and turned to the source of disturbances that had been running around the field. Only Amy looked a bit before turning to head to Lily's direction to help her.

Amelia who had until a while ago been surrounded by death eaters was confused as they dropped around with nobody else present until she felt the area to her side tingle before she fell to her side as the image of Harry and werewolf Voldemort were where she had been standing, trading punches and slashes.

Soon Harry managed to land a clean hit on Voldemort and sent him alway before turning to her. She wondered what he wanted until he offered her his hand. She looked at him before taken the offered appendage and Harry pulling her into his chest. As she used her hands to cushion herself, she ended up getting a feel of his chest instead. When she realized she could almost feel every inch of his chest as if she was touching his naked chest she blushed an atomic red.

God how she was cursing this man for causing her such reactions but it had been a long time since he felt a man, the last time being her fiancee who was killed during the attack on the Bones manor and the death of her family except for baby Susan. Before her thoughts could wander off more she heard Harry speak.

"Don't worry you and Susan aren't alone anymore. Know that I'll always be there when you need help or just an ear to listen." Harry gently stated.

Amelia looked at him wide eyes only to find a reassuring smile as a tear ran down her cheek only to be cleaned off by Harry's thumb.

"Let's hurry and end this so you can check on Susan." Harry said as he turned her around and sent her to her aurors but not before slapping her rear.

Amelia who had been feeling emotional could feel a wave of anger about to befall the man who not a minute ago was soothing one of her biggest insecurities when he spoke again, "Now there's my beautiful Firecracker. Show them what happens when they mess with family."

And with that he was gone after seeing Voldemort charging at there location. Amelia still a bit outraged had a small smile and blushing enough to tell that she at least appreciated his words though she wasn't going to tell him that and promised to get him back for the way he was making her feel.

Harry and Voldemort continue trading blows as Voldemort managed to trap Harry between a wall and himself. He took this opportunity and unleashed a barrage of strikes at Harry who was managing to dodge and block barely before he uppercutted Voldemort into the air only to grab his leg mid air and slam him down hard.

Voldemort vomited out blood from being slammed before he used his position on the ground to add more power to his double kick that buried Harry into the wall behind him. Quickly standing up, Voldemort started slashing at a trapped Harry who could only defend. Harry magically hardened his body as Voldemort slashed away at him when he saw an opening and grabbed Voldemort by the claws. Then he kicked him in the chin sending him into the air and away long enough to pull himself out of the wall.

When he set his feet to the ground again he looked around to see that the death eaters had been finally put down and everyone was watching his fight. Deciding to end his fight as well, he turned to Voldemort who was also up on his feet again.

"As fun as it was playing with you Tom, it's time to end this little fight of ours don't you think?" Harry said as he rolled his arms.

Voldemort could only glare at the use of his name before responding. "Eager to die so soon. Fine, let's end this pathetic struggle of yours. I was hoping to save the rest of my power for that foolish old man but getting rid of you is now more imperative. Lets see you deal with this." Voldemort then produced his wand out of his fur before unleashing one of his deadliest spells, Fiendfyre.

The rest of the guests stared in horror as the spell took the shape of a snake made of fire that was growing size until in was bigger then a three story house. Lily who had finally managed to corner Bellatrix thanks to Amy's help saw the fire snake and knew they were in trouble. The spell could not be extinguished until the caster made it so or until it burned away its target. The target in question was Harry who was looking at the spell with a bored look. The guests were running to the dome and putting up the best defensive spells as fire sprung from the snake and burning everything around it. Lily was about to head to Harry's side when she saw his hand was raised above him and his finger writing in the empty air as strange writing appeared as he chanted out loud.

"It all began in water. It all returns to the water. In other words, water is life, and yet death. The mother that bears us, and a devouring serpent. All things are in flux, and not even time can go against the current. Like a boat tossed about on a great river, in the end it too is merely devoured. Ahh, cruel uncertain providence. But that cruelty and uncertainty have already forgotten. The face of their most beloved mother. I will become a serpent, open my mouth, and devour billions of lands. An eternal void, never filling. An eternal pleasure, never satiated. You must change, all things, and return to my maw."

"Step Thirteen Dark Art: Ouroboros" Harry finished as the ballroom suddenly had tendrils of water popping out of the ground as Harry tapped the floor. The tendrils wrapped themselves onto the Fiendfyre until it was completely enveloped. The wizards around Harry could only stare as the ever burning spell was then being dragged into a large poodle until it was completely gone. They had just witnessed one of the most powerful spells in wizarding history being countered easily like swatting a fly.

Voldemort mindlessly gazed upon the spot where his spell has devourer before he turned with a look of rage at the person responsible for his plans being thwarted. Harry seeing Voldemort's attention now on him merely said, "To bad for you I learned both the true Darkness Arts and White Arts. As it stands, am the only wizard in history to be able to use both opposing forces. Let me show you a glimpse of the results of mixing this forces together."

Harry stretched his right hand were an orb of darkness started to gather. It gave the feeling of hopelessness and despair. Then he stretched his left hand and an orb of white light appeared. It filled them with hope and calmness. As the orbs stayed in place in his hands, Harry smashed them together as the tried to repel each other but Harry continued pushing them. Voldemort not wanting to waste a chance charged towards Harry. When he was barely about to slash Harry's throat, Harry flipped back while at the same time kicked Voldemort in the chin back a few feet. When Harry landed, there was a flash where the orbs were being smashed together. As Voldemort cleared his head, he looked at Harry and rushed him again. Harry sensing his attack turned around to face Voldemort as an orb of magic that had multiple colors like a rainbow was in his right palm. Voldemort had gained too much momentum and couldn't move out of the way when the orb was thrusted into his chest and absorded as he was pushed back. Then he felt like his soul was on fire and in unimaginable pain ripped through him before he was ejected from Fenrir's body. As he flew away from the scene, he looked once more at Harry and vowed to make him pay before his spirit left the area.

Harry saw Voldemort's spirit leave before he turned to the werewolf who was being disintegrating to nothing but sparkles of light that dimmed away. With that done, he turned to the gathered adult wizards and their children. It seemed like the dome had lost its power after the assault from the Fiendfyre. Seeing as no one was moving, he started to walk towards the Potter children. When little Lily saw him approaching, she launched herself at him as she was mesmerized by his last attack.

"Harry that was so scary but it was also so amazing especially when you used that rainbow looking ball. What was that anyways and can you teach it to me please, please pretty please." Little Lily said as she used her puppy eyes on him. Harry himself only smiled as he ruffled her hair to calm her down.

"Well to answer your first question, that rainbow like ball was my Soul Punisher technique. Unfortunately only those who have control over the Darkness and White Arts can use that technique as it requires the merging of said magical energies. But there are other things I can teach you that no one in the world knows. What do you say, want to learn them? Harry asked though he knew what her response was going to be.

Little Lily nodded excitedly as the rest of her siblings came forward asking to be taught as well. Harry could only chuckle as he agreed to their requests before he felt a hand on his shoulders. He turned only to find Lily giving him a hard stare.

"And when was my opinion going to be taken into consideration hm?" She asked with her hands on her hips. Harry sensing the impending danger quickly grabbed little Lily and Sylvia and lifted them to face Lily.

"How can you say no to such faces," Harry stated as little Lily and Sylvia put on their puppy eyes for their mother. Said mother received the full effect of it though she had grown immune to such acts by her daughters so Harry decided to close the deal himself, "And how could I possibly pass up the chance to get to spend more time with such angels and a heavenly goddess like yourself."

Whatever she had planned to say was lost as she tried to hide her reddening face behind her hair as Amy came up behind her and said, "Oh he's good."

Lily lightly glared at her before Dumbledore garnered their attention. "I hate to interrupt such a joyous occasion but I believe we have matters that require our immediate attention. For starters it looks like aside from a few death eaters, the rest are dead or in the case of Bellatrix have escaped."

Amy at hearing this grew agitated as Sirius came to comfort her. In the middle of trying to cuff her, Bellatrix had activated a portkey on her person and escaped. That left a sour taste on the veelas mouth as now a dangerous witch was on the loose with only a few people able to match her.

Dumbledore seeing Amy's state tried to appease the Lady Black, "Now dear don't beat yourself over it. It has been known to happen and luckily you weren't dragged with her like many other unfortunate souls." Amy could only nod as Dumbledore continued on, "Another matter that needs our attention is Voldemort," cue shudders of mostly the majority of the guests. When Dumbledore saw they were calm he forged on, "Today has shown us that he is still alive and will probably try to obtain a body as fast as he can now that we are aware of his presence. I suggest we build up our forces and prepare for his return along with the rest of his followers.

Fudge seeing were Dumbledore was going intervened. "But his dead, we saw him be killed by Mr Potter."

"Sorry to pop your bubble but snakehead is still alive and slithering around. That fool found a way to bind his soul to this plane but fortunately it's not foolproof so it's possible to take him down but it'll require time. I suggest you follow the old man's plan for now and prepare yourselfs for the coming war. If there's something I know about Voldy, it's that he doesn't make the same mistake twice. He'll probably try to gather all the forces he can and which include all the ones who have a bone to pick with the current Ministry that's done everything in its power to piss off all non pureblood wizards. If Fenrir is any indication then the werewolves are now on his side and soon other magical beings will be joining him. My advice is to stop pissing none humans and try to provide or create a better government that doesn't try to put them down for being different. Also give my Firecracker Amelia command of all the planning and building of our forces. She is better suited for battle commander then anyone else." Harry said as he avoided a Stinger from Amelia who was blushing once more.

Fudge could only nod in agreement before Dumbledore spoke up once more with a twinkle in his eyes, "There's also the matter of you, Harry my boy."

A/N: Thank you all for your patience. I've been busy with other things. Like I've said before, im not abandoning my story but for the next 4 to 6 months my updating schedule will be random. I hope to have your understanding and patience.
