A/N: Well… this is the sequel to James Potter and the mischievous Sirius Black. Please read that one first or some of this defiantly won't make sense!
Ch 1 Reunited
James was sitting on his bed awaiting his friend's arrival. He could hardly believe it's been only a month since those horrible events he went through. He was sad when he found out Sirius had to go home but was happy when he found out he was coming back for the last month of summer.
"James, Sirius is here." Vallery Potter said.
James stood up and followed his mother down stairs. James was feeling a little nervous about seeing his friend, since Sirius was there throughout most of the torture he went through but as soon as he saw his mate his face broke into a smile.
"Sirius!" James said. Sure he and Sirius had been keeping in touch with the mirrors but it wasn't the same as seeing each other in person.
"James my good friend, why don't you be a good git and carry my stuff upstairs."
"I'm the git eh, well if I'm a git then that makes you a git as well."
"How do you figure?"
"Well, I've been told that we are two of a kind, therefore what I am you are as well."
"Touché." Sirius said laughing.
"Boys, why don't you both carry the trunk up?" Vallery suggested with a smile on her face.
"Mom you ruin all the fun," James joked and he and Sirius picked up the trunk and dragged it up to Sirius's guest room.
"So James, when are old Remus and Peter coming?"
"They won't be here for two weeks. Remus has to visit some relatives or something and Peter is grounded for some reason, I think it has something to do with us." James joked.
The boys left the trunk in the room and ran downstairs.
"Boys, no running in the house." Vallery said.
"Sorry mom," James said.
"Yea, sorry Mrs. Potter." Sirius replied.
"So what are you two going to do?" asked Vallery.
"Well I was thinking we could go down to the park and scare some of the kids there." James said.
"James, you know I don't like it when you scare kids." Vallery said.
"It's my idea Mrs. Potter."
Vallery sat in thought for a second.
"Well, I suppose you could go down to the park but if I hear from any of the neighbours that you did anything, there will be trouble."
"Thanks." James and Sirius yelled at the same time and ran out of the kitchen and out the door.
"How far is the park from here?" asked Sirius.
"Around the corner and down the street."
The boys ran all the way to the park.
"Are there usually a lot of kids around here?"
"Yea, it's a park."
"Did you bring the cloak?"
"Are we going to get in trouble for using the cloak? I mean we aren't aloud to use magic outside school."
"James, I wouldn't really consider the cloak magic. Do we use a wand, no. therefore we can't get in trouble."
"You got a point." James said.
He took the cloak out of his bag and put it over him and Sirius.
"Ok, we will spin the merry-go-round and scare the kids." James suggested.
"What's a merry-go-round?" asked Sirius. James had been coming to this park for years with his dad. He knew all the rides and everything, but by the sounds of it Sirius had never been to a muggle park.
"The round thing that those kids are on."
"Are you sure it'll scare them?"
"If we push it when nobody's there," Sirius looked at him. "Yes, now let's go. While the kids are still playing." They ran over to it and started to push it.
There were four kids on it at the time. The one boy stopped laughing and stared at the ground moving faster and faster. A girl who could be his sister looked at the boy. "Stop it Jeremy." She said.
"I'm not doing anything, Paula is it you?" he asked.
Another girl looked at them. "Does it look like I'm doing anything?" She asked with a trace of worry in her voice.
"Well it's not me either." The last boy said.
The young girl started to cry. The girl named Paula picked her up.
"I don't know what's going on here but I'm getting off."
"How do you expect to do that? Jump?"
"If I have to," she replied.
James and Sirius stopped pushing and ran towards the slide.
"Over here, we can take the cloak off." James whispered. They ran over behind a wall which Sirius guessed was for a game and took the cloak off.
"That was great mate." Sirius said.
"Did she jump?" James asked.
"Let's go see," Sirius said excitedly. They walked out from behind the wall and looked over at the merry-go-round.
"Jeremy, is he hurt?" Paula asked.
"I don't know, check him out."
James and Sirius looked at what the kids were looking at. It seemed the little boy actually jumped off after they left.
"Hey you two," Jeremy called. James and Sirius stopped where they were.
"Us?" asked James.
"Yea, can you help me bring this boy home. He's only eight and I think he may have sprained his ankle when he landed."
"What happened?" Sirius asked innocently.
"Well, you're not going to believe this but the merry-go-round was spinning on its own, faster then ever and this little boy jumped off."
"I heard this park was haunted," Sirius said.
"Yea, I've been coming here for year but never once had I encountered anything like that." James replied.
"Well are you going to help or not. My sister needs to hold my baby sister and I need help carrying this boy. I'm only ten."
James and Sirius walked up to him.
"We'll carry, you lead." James said.
"This isn't part of our plan," Sirius whispered to James.
"But it's our fault." James replied.
It was obvious Sirius didn't want to carry the boy home.
"Do you know the kid?" James asked.
"I've seen him around. He lives just over there," Jeremy pointed towards the town houses.
James knew of that area. There were tons of muggle families over there. The other side, where he lived, was where most of the Wizarding families resided.
"I've been coming to this park since I was a little boy and I never heard anything about it being haunted." Jeremy said.
"Well, my dad always told me stories about it," James replied.
"Oh, well did you see it happen?"
"What, the thing moving? No, we were coming around the corner and saw you huddled around a kid, so we were coming to see what happened." James replied. Sirius was keeping quiet. He didn't want to talk to muggles right now, he wanted to scare them.
James looked at Sirius, he knew why he was being quiet but they caused the boy to hurt himself so they should do something to help him.
"Sirius, lighten up, we can do our thing after we drop this kid off at home."
"Serious is an odd name," Paula replied.
"You're odd looking lady!" Sirius snapped back.
"Sirius, calm down. When we get back to my place we can contact Remus and Peter and everything will be fine."
"James, I thought we were going to have some fun, not carry a kid home."
"If you don't want to-."
"I don't!"
"Then set him down. Carefully," James replied. Sirius set the boy down. "Good, now you can go back to my place." Sirius walked away.
"I'm sorry, he's cranky."
"No problem, we're almost there." Jeremy said grabbing the boy's legs. They got to the house and Paula rang the door bell.
"Why hasn't the boy said anything?"
"I think he's shy that's all. He doesn't know you."
"I see," James said. He didn't really understand it, but muggles were interesting characters.
"Kyle!" a voice said from the house. The door was opened and a woman in an apron stood there.
"Mom," the boy said.
"What happened Jeremy?"
"Well Miss. Gaunter, the merry-go-round was spinning on its own and Kyle decided to jump off because he was scared. I think he fell and sprained his ankle."
"Thank you for brining him home Jeremy and, I'm sorry I don't know who you are."
"James Potter."
There was a look on the women's face as if she knew something but a second later it was gone.
"Well James, thank you as well."
"His friend Serious was helping too, but then he got mean and walked away."
"Well, since he helped thank Sirius for me will you dear?"
"Yes ma'am." James said and walked away.
"Where are you going?"
"Home, Sirius is waiting for me." And he walked away.
When James walked into the house he found Sirius sitting on the couch reading the daily prophet.
"Anything new in there?" he asked.
"Well, Voldemort is still trying to find you. He's attacked a lot of different muggle cities trying to get to you. I'm worried on what he'll do once we get back to Hogwarts."
"He's afraid of Dumbledore remember."
"Yes, but it's not Hogwarts I'm worried about." Sirius paused before continuing, "its kings cross. That's where he got you last time and well," he stopped there.
"You're worried he'll try again."
"A little. It's just; I can't stop thinking about it." Sirius suddenly went quiet, which wasn't like him.
"I've moved on mate, now you have to too." James said. Sirius nodded but James knew he was still thinking about it. James couldn't blame him; the truth was he hadn't moved one. He had nightmares about it all the time. It's not all bad, he has funny dreams about his friends once a week, but the rest of the time he dreams about it.
"What can we do to get your mind off it?" James asked.
Sirius grinned. "Just one thing, let's think of a welcome back prank for Snivellus."
James agreed with a smile on his face.
"My room, where we won't be disturbed." James said and they went up to his room and started planning.
The two weeks past and the boys were waiting for Victor and Vallery to get the floo powder.
"So Remus and Peter are coming back with us, that's what was agreed?"
"Yes mom, they are meeting us in the Leaky Cauldron and we will send their stuff here and then go shop."
"Alright, just making sure."
"I love the feeling you get when you go through this don't you?"
"Are you referring to the dizziness?" James asked.
"Yea," Sirius replied.
"Well Sirius, why don't you go first? Be sure to wait for us." Vallery said.
"Thank you," Sirius said as he grabbed some powder.
"Leaky Cauldron." Sirius replied and in a flash of green he was standing in the leaky cauldron.
"Alright James, your turn. Please don't go running off. I know how you and Sirius are." Vallery replied.
"Yes mom, I'll stay and we will wait like good boys," James replied. He took some powder and called out, "Leaky Cauldron." And in a flash James was also gone. He went flying past other grates and ended up in the leaky cauldron, lying flat on his face.
"I take it you don't do this as often as you'd like." Sirius replied with a smirk on his face.
"Like you land perfectly," James retorted.
"As a matter of fact I do. We use floo for everything. My parents do everything by magic, no matter how simple it is."
"Hmm," James said to himself. "I guess I see your point about your family. They really do hate muggles don't they?"
"Yea and my mother was screaming at me before I arrived here because I hang out with you at school, and because I'm in Gryffindor. In my parent's eyes, I've betrayed the family."
"Isn't your brother coming to Hogwarts this year?" asked James as Vallery Potter entered the room.
"Yea and dear old mother says he'll regain the family name by going to Slytherin and the fact is he will be put into Slytherin. The little…" he started to mumble curses and insults about is brother under his breath.
Not a second after did Victor Potter come through the chimney and into the room.
"Well, shall we?" he asked. The four of them walked into the Leaky Cauldron's main room when they heard a shout.
"James! Sirius!" there was Peter and Remus.
