Chapter Two: The Dreadful Meeting

Author's Note: I can't tell you all how sorry I am for not writing this chapter sooner. I had writer's block for a while and then school interfered. It's no excuse for not writing, I know; but here's the next chapter.

A Few Notes: There will be some timeline manipulation. It was brought to my attention that Daniel would be 16 and in college at the time Harry was born. Instead, this will start after Gamekeeper. All will be explained in the story!

Disclaimer: Nope, still don't own 'em!

Remus and Sirius quickly made their way back to the Headmaster's office. A crib was conjured for Harry, who was fast asleep, and he was put into it. Before Remus or Sirius could say anything, Albus spoke up.

"I made a portkey that will take you two to Dr. Jackson's residence. If at all possible please bring him back here; but do not force him."

Remus and Sirius took the portkey and landed in the middle of a room. The room had all grey walls and as they turned around they saw a giant circle with strange markings on it and a ramp leading up to it. They turned back around, and instead of finding an empty room they found men pointing guns at them. All of a sudden, they saw lights flashing from the claxons and heard a voice over the intercom.

"Unsceduled off-world activation" and then "General Hammond and SG-1 please report to the control room. General Hammond and SG-1 please report to the control room."

Sirius and Remus looked at each other, and then to the men still pointing guns and them and thought, what now?

Daniel Jackson, of SG1 was in his office when heard SG1 being called to the control room. He sighed to himself and made his way there. He walked into the control room, and saw that the rest of SG1 was already there. This was normal as his office was the farthest away from the gate, out of all of them. Once he was there, General Hammond spoke up.

"Who are they, and how did they get into the base?"

Walter, who had been running a gate diagnostic, replied. "They came through the gate, from a wormhole the computer didn't recognize. The Iris didn't shut. I'm doing a gate diagnostic to find out why."

"Who are they?" Hammond answered.

At this point, they all turned their attention to the gate room. Daniel gasped and his face went pale. Jack looked over at him.

"Daniel?"

"I know them. I don't know how they got here, though."

"Who are these people, Dr. Jackson?" Hammond interjected before Jack could respond.

"They're friends of mine, from before I joined the Stargate program."

"How did they get through the gate?"

"I don't know. Please General, I know them. They won't hurt anybody." Daniel gave a pleading look to Hammond. Hammond then, picked up the microphone and told the security personnel to stand down. "Thank-you General."

Daniel then walked out of the control room and towards the gate room, without a word to anyone. Jack just gave Hammond a frustrated look and followed after him. Once in the Gate room, they heard Daniel talking.

"What are you two doing here? Is everyone okay? Where's James?"

The two men looked overwhelmed by this, but recovered quickly.

Remus spoke up, "Dumbledore sent us."

Daniel frowned when Remus didn't answer his last two questions. "Is James okay?"

This time Sirius answered in a serious tone. "That's actually why we're here."

All of a sudden a man behind Daniel spoke up. "Daniel."

Daniel turned around and saw the rest of SG1 in the gate room.

"Um. Why don't we go into the briefing room?" Daniel said this looking at both SG1 and Remus and Sirius. Both agreed and Daniel led everyone to the briefing room; General Hammond was already there waiting for them; everyone sat down and no one spoke.

"General Hammond, this is Remus Lupin and Sirius Black. Guys, this is General Hammond, Colonel Jack O'Neill, Major Samantha Carter, and Teal'c. General Hammond is the commander of the base."

At this point Jack spoke up. "Daniel, what are they doing here?"

"I don't actually know." He looked at Remus and Sirius.

After a moment Sirius spoke up.

"Daniel there is something that I've got to tell you, that you're not going to like." Sirius paused, took a sip of water that had been passed around and then continued speaking. "There's really no other way for me to say this, but James and Lily are dead."

Sirius made an attempt to continue, but was too choked up. Daniel looked shocked. He opened his mouth several times, attempting to speak, but in the end closed it.

Remus eyed Sirius and said, "Voldemort got to them. Apparantly Peterworked for him and told him where to find them. Luckily though Harry survived. He's with Albus right now.

Jack confused said, "Hold on! Who's James and Peter? And what does this have to do with Daniel?"

Daniel sighed and with practiced ease pushed his feelings away. "James is, no was my brother. Peter was a friend of ours."

"You never mentioned them before? And why do they sound British?"

At Jack's last question, Remus and Sirius looked at Daniel with an incredulous expression.

"That's because they are British. I guess I better explain everything." He took a sip of water and continued. "I know you won't believe some things that I'm going to tell you, but please let me finish before you ask questions." Everybody nodded. "Okay. You see, the Jackson's weren't my real parents. I was adopted when I was born. My biological parents couldn't afford to look after both me and my brother. So I was put up for adoption. Then when the Jackson's died I was sent to foster families until I was eleven. At that point, I was offered a place at the Hogwarts school of Witchcraft and Wizardry. The headmaster of the school, Albus Dumbledore, picked me up from my foster family and I was able to go to Hogwarts early. I fell in love with it, from the very moment I saw it. It was like heaven to me. When we finally got to his office, he explained to me that I was adopted, and he offered to introduce me to my real parents. I immediately accepted. The Potter's then took me in, and I met James; my brother. James and I became really close, and spent every waking moment with each other. Over that summer, before I went to Hogwarts I learned that not only was James my brother, but my twin also. Needless to say, I was ecstatic to finally have a family and a brother. Once we got on the train, James introduced me to Sirius, who he had known for years. Then we met Remus and Peter. We all became fast friends and were sorted into the same house, when we reached Hogwarts. I went through school, and realized that I wanted to travel. James and Lily, who at the time was his girlfriend; got married and then moved into one of the Potter houses. He would have moved in with his parents, but they died, leaving everything with James and I. The Potter's are an old family and therefore, had many houses so James and Lily took one and I went traveling knowing that I had a home to go to when I came back. Well, eventually I came to America, got my Bachelors, then my masters, and finally several PHD's. I then got a job at a University. When Catherine offered me a job here, I was in the process of thinking about what I wanted to do. At the time, I was about to go and move into one of the Potter estate's. That obviously didn't happen, and then I came here and solved the puzzle and here I am."

Everyone was silent, processing the information. Daniel drank some water, trying to stop his hands from shaking. It had been hard talking about all of that. He still mourned both the Jackson's and The Potter's deaths. It was almost too much for him to handle, to find out that James was now dead too. A question from Jack brought Daniel out of his thoughts.

"So magic is real?"

Daniel smiled and nodded, knowing that Jack was having a hard time understanding that. He looked at Sam, who seemed to be having the same problem. Teal'c, on the other hand didn't look confused at all. He sent a questioning glance at him and Teal'c said, "Jaffa's too have magical powers; those who do are highly looked upon."

Daniel then remembered that Sirius and Remus had said that Harry had survived. He brought everyone out of their thoughts when he voiced his question. "So if Harry survived where is he?"

Author's Note: I know that this chapter is not very exciting, but explanations were needed. I hope that everyone enjoyed it. I will not wait so long to update again. Next time we find out what is going to happen with Harry, and the Gamekeeper will be brought in. This chapter may not be very long, but I felt that this was a good stopping point. There will hopefully be more action in the next chapter, along with more Remus and Sirius. Any suggestions or feedback is welcome. Thanks. Please review! SpellMasters Out.
