Interlude 1: The mysterious case of Harry Potter
Hufflepuff Common Room

A week had passed since New Year and Hogwarts soon went back to its normal activity. The students still sharing some of their holiday tales, but it was clear that most of the holiday excitement had passed. The students of Hufflepuff house weren’t much different as they spent time inside their common room doing their everyday things, some were chatting, several of them were playing games, and others were catching up on their forgotten homework and so on.

Hermione Granger was no exception as she sat on one of the bigger armchairs next to the fireplace with a huge book grasped in front of her. That in itself was NOT a strange view. The brunette was a self and publicly proclaimed bookworm and she was darn proud of it, hence why no one was so much as giving her a second look.

For once, however, the 12 years old wasn’t able to concentrate on the book in front of her, something else was occupying her mind and refusing to let go. The words on the paper that would normally be imprinted on her brain the moment she read them had simply passed through with little, if any, that stayed.

For the umpteenth times, she released a sigh as she peeked over her book toward the source of her problem. The person that had occupied her mind was currently sitting on the center couch with Justin and Ernie as they played cards on the coffee table. The black haired boy that was also her best friend seemed to be in normal condition to untrained eyes, but Hermione had been around him long enough to know that he wasn’t.

It was several days ago that she noticed something wrong with her best friend. While he had been acting somewhat unusual since before the holiday, lately there seemed to be something terribly wrong with him. He would sigh and looked absent-minded as if he was carrying the weight of the world on his back, sometimes he would repeatedly yawn as if he had been lacking sleep, and most importantly his eyes would cloud over at times as if he was remembering something sorrowful.

She had tried asking him about his problem and offered to listen, probably even find a solution to it. However, the boy had refused and tried to convince her that he was fine although she knew otherwise. If there was one thing that Hermione Granger obsessed over above all else, it was unanswered questions and mysteries… and currently, the mystery of Harry Potter was really starting to get to her nerves. The girl silently swore that she would figure out what was eating into her best friend even if he would scorn her for it.

Potion Classroom

Holiday excitement had also passed from the mind of the Hogwarts resident potion master and professor that was Severus Snape. The man was sitting inside his adjoined office with a bottle filled with a familiar amber colored drink along with two glasses next to it, although only one of them contain the liquid.

The man spun the liquid inside the glass several times yet made no move to consume it, he knew he would need a clear mind for what was to come. Soon enough, a knock on his door signaled that someone was outside and asking for permission to enter. “enter” said snape, and the knob on the wooden door turned and it opened to admit Professor McGonagall inside.

Officially, both Hogwarts houses were embroiled in decades or even centuries long rivalry and both heads of house barely tolerate each other’s presence. In reality, at least the latter half, couldn’t be further from the truth as made apparent by the woman making her way straight toward the table and sat on the chair across her counterpart. She patiently waited as Snape took the bottle and poured the woman a drink in the empty glass before pushing it toward her.

Finally, Snape sat back down on his chair before Minerva McGonagall asked him, if Severus saw fit to call her for a private word, there were only one topic possible between them, “What’s wrong, Severus? Did something happen to Harry?”

The man in question leaned back on his chair before answering, “Yes… and no, Minerva.” He looked at the woman’s expression and immediately spotted the sign of worry on her beautiful visage, worry for the one student that both of them saw as family. That in itself caused a small smile to appear on his own.

Severus sipped his own drink to calm himself slightly before continuing, “Nothing dangerous, Minerva. I assure you that but there was… a little problem.” The woman that was Minerva McGonagall was publicly known as a formidable and a very strict woman with near perpetual edge on her look but like the man before her, nothing was as it seemed while she was in private.

Snape allowed the woman some calming breath before continuing once again, “As you no doubt already notice, Harry seems rather… distracted and distraught lately, the same could also be said about Ms. Granger thus I was of the mind that it might be related to both of them.”

McGonagall nodded silently, as her colleague said, she had notice the change in the attitude of her godson and his best friend. She too had notice that while they showed sign of coping with their issue once they were back with their missing friend, Harry seemed to be having a harder time than the girl in moving on. Wondering if Severus had managed to find any clue regarding the issue, she patiently waited for the man to continue.

Severus took a deep breath before speaking once again, “As you probably knew, I gave Harry detention today in my class. Today, he was so distracted that he actually messed up his potion without any external stimuli… well, long story short, I used the opportunity to ask him what was bothering him.”

The man let out a sigh before continuing, “I had to force him slightly to get him to confess… and a minor legiliment. Once I did, I couldn’t fault him for being so shaken… I would too and I was seeing it second-hand.” The man raised his eyes to meet the woman’s straight as he spoke, “He saw them, Minerva… He found and looked into the Mirror of Erised… and saw James and Lily as if they were alive.”

This time, Minerva McGonagall couldn’t hide her surprise as she let out a gasp, “But… how… how did Harry find the mirror? Unless… Severus, please tell me he didn’t go to the third floor corridor.”

Snape nodded his head once as he answered, “He did, Minerva. He told me it was an accident… but the problem lies deeper than that….”

The man paused for a moment before speaking morosely, “You know what his vision means, Minerva… Mirror of Erised showed your deepest desire, the one thing you want more than anything else…. He missed them, Minerva… more than we both realized he would."

Minerva McGonagall was a bright and age wizened woman despite her look. Moreover, she had lost family members during the two wizarding wars. She understood the feeling of loss from losing family members, better than the man in front of her. However, something about what her colleague told her disturbed her.

In order for one to feel the loss of something… they needed to have memory of possessing it in the first place. In Harry’s case, he needed to have memory of his parents in order to feel that loss. Sure, she knew that Hagrid had given the boy a memory album of them… but none of those photos had been taken after Harry’s birth.

Afterall, with the madman Voldemort aiming specifically for the baby, James and Lily had gone into hiding during the middle of the latter’s pregnancy. With risk of being found anytime, of course there would be little to no time for them to take leisure time like posing for a carefree picture.

Suddenly, a shudder went through the woman’s body as she realized the true horror of the revelation. Her eyes widened in horror as she looked at Snape, her fingers gripped the arms of her seat so tight that they turned white from the pressure.

The man obviously had been waiting for the older woman to reach the same conclusion as he nodded at her with expression of deep sorrow as he confirmed her thought, “Yes, Minerva… he remembered them… and he remembered how they lose their life right in front of him even in his tender age of barely over 1 years old. He remembered EVERYTHING.”

This time the Minerva McGonagall soundly gasped at the potion master’s word. The man’s emphasis on the word “Everything” wasn’t an accident and the implication of it had the woman finally reaching for the bottle of Firewhiskey.

Her shaking hand nearly caused her to spill the liquid but after a gulp of the beverage, she managed to calm herself enough to put it back on the table safely. That didn’t mean that she was calmed however, far from it in fact as she asked her colleague, “Everything?” Severus Snape answered, “Yes, Minerva... Everything.”
