A/N: a little bit of awkwardness in here so fair warning and disclaimer:
I own nothing except for some original characters I put in here, and I don't own anything you may recognize from the book.
When Sirius comes in I recomend you play the chorus of Starstruck by 3OH!3 cause i kinda think it goes along with it :)
James
When I walked out of my room Harry was sitting there looking into the fire. It seemed early for him to be up, but I knew why.
"You guys going today?" I asked. He turned around to see who had spoke.
"Yeah." He answered.
"We could come with you. Me, Sirius, Remus-"
"You can't." He cut in.
"We want to help you, Harry. You can't just shut us out forever you know. Besides my life will be affected by this too you know."
That got his attention. He stood up. I noticed that we were around the same hight.
"You're right. I just keep forgetting about that. You can come if you must."
"Good. Hey Evans! He said we could come!" I smirked when she stepped out of her room fumming a few seconds later. Apparently she was not a morning person.
"Some people are still trying to sleep you know!" She shouted at me.
"It seems you're waking up few." I pointed upstairs where two redhead boys were looking at us all.
"For second we thought it was mum." One said. I'm pretty sure his name is George.
"That would've been a cruddy start to the day." said Fred, rubbing his eyes.
"Anyway we were coming even if you said no." Harry rolled his eyes.
"I guess it will be the 10 of us. You, me, Evans, Sirius, Remus, Neville, Ginny, Luna, Ron and Hermione."
"What about the others?" Evans asked.
"They'll be staying here working on how to get into Malfoy Manor to get the diary. Malfoy, Zabini, Parkinson, and his father know that place like the back of their hand."
I nodded. "So what time are we leaving?" I asked.
"In about a half hour. We'll want to get out of here before anyone else sees."
"I think I'll head up and wake Padfoot. It'll take a while, but it's not impossible."
"I'll go get Ron and Ginny, then we'll head over to get Hermione and Remus. Neville and Luna plan to meet us in the entrance hall."
"Alright we'll meet you there." He nodded and left the room.
Lily rolled her eyes at me. "What I do?"
"Know this, Potter. Wake me up again and you'll be speaking jibberish for the rest of the day."
"Well aren't you cheery this morning." I turned around and walked upstairs to wake Padfoot.
Sure enough after the 5 minutes I spent knocking on his door there was no sound from the other side. I just opened the door and walked in on a rather interesting view. Some girl was lying there next him with a few clothes scattered here and there.
'Looks like he had a busy night' I thought. 'Might as well have a little fun' A smirk crept up onto my mouth.
"OY! Sirius wake up!" The lights flew on and they both woke up. The girl-who I recognized from Hufflepuff in our year-let out a small shierk and covered herself quickly. He looked over at me and smirked.
"So enjoying the view, you perv?" He gave a lazy grin.
"Potter look away god damnit!" The girl shouted at me. "Black you too!"
"Not like I'm going to see anything I didn't last night." He smirked.
"Anyway we're leaving soon so get ready. Nice meeting you." I gave a small salute to the girl who just scowled and threw a pillow at my head.
I left the room laughing silently. The look on her face was priceless. Once I got back into the common room Lily looked at me curiously.
"What was that shouting about?"
"Oh nothing." She raised an eyebrow at me. A few seconds later the girl-who was now dressed- and Sirius-who for some reason can never seem to find a shirt and only pants-came down.
"Hi Emmy." Lily greeted. I looked between them.
"You know each other?" Sirius asked clearly gobsmacked.
"Yes we do Black. Because I, unlike you, actually get to know a person." Emmy just walked out not giving a second glance at us.
"Just get ready you git. Harry will meet us in the entrance hall in 10 minutes to leave." She walked out.
Teddy
I woke up and heard people talking outside my door. It seems pretty dark to me in the room. I miss my room. It had pictures that moved! I started to call out as best as I could. A few seconds later that blond person came in and he picked me up.
He seemed a tiny bit annoyed to do so. 'Well hi to you too' I thought. I think I have way to many thoughts for a 6th month old. I rub my eyes and cluchted my blankie closer. Mia was there along with dada. I held my arms out to him.
Remus
Teddy was slowly waking up. His eyes landed on me and he stretched his little arms out to me. I took him from Draco without hesitation. Over these past few weeks I've gotten used to having him around.
Hermione had told me that he had been spared from my 'furry problem' so that had lifted a weight off my shoulders. He seemed to fit perfectly into my arms. I held him close to me.
Draco had agreed-probably Hermione's doing-to watch over him while we were out. I couldn't help but notice a change between them. The entrance swung open and Harry, Ron, and Ginny walked in.
"It's time." Ginny said. Hermione nodded.
"I put a list of when he will have to eat. You can feed him some baby food, but make sure he also has his bottle. Also make sure that he takes a nap."
"Mothering much?" Ron asked earning him a slap in the arm.
"I'll be back later, and behave with Draco here." I told Teddy. He gave me a toothless grin. I smiled back.
"We have to go." Ginny said after a few moments.
"Right, right. Almost forgot. Bye Teddy." I handed him back to Draco.
"Take good care of him."
"I will Profess-I mean Lupin." We both exchanged nods then the 5 of us-not including Draco- left the common room.
When we got there James, Sirius, Lily, Neville and Luna were waiting for us. James had sent them the owl that they could come along.
"Where's Peter?" Hermione asked.
"He didn't want to come. He's more of a non-danger person." James said.
"And he was afraid of how Harry would react." Lily finished. It was silent for a few moments.
"Lets hit the road!" Sirius pumped his fist in the air and ran out the door. Figures he'd break the tension.
Our P.O.V. (like we're watching a movie)
They all followed him out into the cool November air. The grass was dewy, because it had rained the previous night. The sun was slowly rising making the sky a light pink with scattered clouds. The stars had started to fade away and the moon was leaving. Remus looked up at it. Tonight would be the full moon meaning they'd have to be back before it's too late.
They got to the gates and opened them up. They let out a creak as if they hadn't been opened in years. Everyone started to walk out. It was a silent walk for them. The school's boundaires were just a few feet away, then they could apparate to Little Hangleton.
Once they got outside the protective spells Harry turned to face them.
"Start to pair up. We can't go together all at once so side-along apparition it is."
James quickly picked Lily who rolled her eyes and walked over to Harry's side. Ginny went with Ron, Hermione went with Remus, Neville went with Luna, and Sirius and James were the last two.
"Come on Prongs. You're dying to hold my hand." Sirius smirked.
"Shut up, Padfoot." He muttered and grabbed his upper arm.
"Now concentrate on the site we're going to. It's surrounded by large over grown bushes and it has a wooden stick dug into the ground right in between the fork in the lane. There's 2 signs attached to it. one say 'Great Hangleton' and the other says 'Little Hangleton'. Just keep focusing on it."
They shut their eyes and began to focus. After a few seconds the first 'pop' was heard. Harry and Lily had gone. Soon they were all disapparating.
Once they opened their eyes Harry grinned. It looked exactly as it had in Tom's memory.
It was the same country lane that had high tangled hedgerows, but it seemed as thought they had gotten taller than the last time he saw it. The valley looked as green as ever and the big house at the top of the hill looked vast and alone. The graveyard he had been in 4 years ago was nestled in between the 2 hills. The sun was coming up making the sky turn a brighter blue color.
"Are we in the right place Harry?" Lily asked looking at him. He nodded. They began to walk in the direction of the Gaunt's house.
He saw the lane where Ogden had gone in the memory in the gap of the hedge.
"This way." He started to walk with the others behind him. The path had many potholes and was very crooked and rocky. It was bordered by taller and wilder hedges.
"Never told us we'd nearly trip when you said we could come along." Neville said after he almost tripped once again when he stepped into one of the potholes.
"We're almost there." Harry said. Soon the trees got more thicker as they exited the path. Harry looked up and he could barley see the sky
"So I'm guessing they weren't into daylight?" James joked.
