Special thank you to: Slytherin_vs_Gryffindor yahoo group, Lien: I like to call the limo scene �a tender moment of weakness�.

HPTwin: OMG! I can�t believe I haven�t updated since August. No wonder readers believe that I have abandoned this fic. But not to worry, I haven�t given up on my crown jewel. It�s just taking me a long time to agree on anything with my muses and they have been quite difficult of late.

spedwouthermedz: I just come an ear full about so many cliff-hangers and I apologize for them but I don�t see any other way of continuing on to the next chapter and besides if I end it with everything resolved then my a/n should actually say, �The end� and I know everyone don�t want me to end the story too soon, right? Right. Please enjoy the next chapter. 

Kat9jr: Thank you so very much for being able to read & review. Talk about a reunion? I had a lot of fun with Lucius when he found James. But what do you think is going to happen when Sirius turns up on Severus� doorstep? Enjoy. 

Anonymous Sister of the Author: Ah, but it turned out that it was James. Remember, Lucius and Severus are in the Muggle world and need to get back to the wizarding world pronto. 

rainbow: Thank you! Enjoy the next chapter.

chelzi: I�m impressed�you reviewed twice! Most readers just go once and leave it until the next chapter. Thank you for the complement. I had to figure out a way that everyone would believe that Lily and James were together. Not a lot of people knew that James was involved with Lucius and as you saw, Lucien made sure of that. I�m thrilled that you�re enjoying the fic so far. Narcissa shouldn�t have done that to Draco. Now if Lucien nearly tried to kill her, what do you think Lucius is going to do? Don�t know? Well, read on to find out, and for those who read and didn�t review thank you for even taking the time read up to this chapter.
```
Enjoy!

OOoOoOo

Anguished moaning could be heard
distantly up ahead, as Harry and Hermione cautiously ventured through the
secret passage under the Whomping Willow.

Coming up out of a trap door, the
two found themselves in the most unlikely of places.�

�We�re in the Shrieking Shack,
aren�t we?� Hermione asked.

Harry said nothing as he helped
her out of the narrow hole. The moaning became louder and clearer once they
reached the top landing of the constantly swaying decrepit old house.

A door was wide open.

Harry ran into room, grabbing the
red head in there by the shoulders. �Where�s the dog, Ron?�

Said person was trembling with
fright and clutching his pet rat. With a quivering finger, Ron pointed behind
them.

�He�s the dog! He�s an Animagus!�

Looking down� at the dust covered wood floor, large
footprints trailed to the broken creaking door as it swung closed to reveal a
thin haggardly man with long oily black hair and raggedy beard. He stood
motionless in front of the Gryffindors.

Blinded by rage, Harry attacked
the man, wrestling him to the floor, drawing his wand.

A hacking laugh echoed throughout
the shack. �Are you going to kill me, Harry?� the man asked, smiling and
showing black rotting teeth.

The teen was at a crossroad. Here
was the man responsible for his mother�s death and also that of his
godmother�s. He was the one who had
caused him to be taken from his father. He
was the one who had caused him to be abused by people who were not his family.

Professor McGonagall and Minister
Fudge�s conversation with Madam Rosmerta instantly
sprung into Harry�s head from that day he (under his invisibility cloak),
Draco, and Hermione were in Hogsmead...

�Remember when James realized that he was
marked for death, he went into hiding. Few knew where he was. One who did was
Sirius Black, and he told You-Know-Who,� Minerva rushed out, fluttered just
remembering that awful night.

�And he also killed one of their friends�.
Peter Pettigrew,� Fudge added, pouring himself and the professor a drink to
calm their nerves, as well as to warm their bodies from the inside from the
biting cold outside.

�Peter Pettigrew?� Rosmerta
repeated. The name sounded familiar to her but she could put a face to it yet.

�Yes, Peter Pettigrew� A lump of boy, always
trailing after James and Sirius,� Minerva explained.

�Oh, yes, now I remember him. What happened?�

�Well, he tried to warn James that night, and
might have managed had he not run into an old friend, Sirius Black.�

�Black was vicious.� He didn�t kill Pettigrew, he destroyed him! A
finger! The only thing that we were able to find left of him.�

�I don�t believe it,� Rosmerta
exclaimed. Sirius would never do something as betray his best friend in such a
cruel way. �What about Lily?�

Minerva shied away from talking about Lily.
Things were still touchy with Fudge. She didn�t support his decision about
placing Harry with the Dursley�s either, but she
remained polite to him nonetheless.

�She and James were together�� And she left
her sentence hanging off, letting them take it however they wanted.

But Harry knew the truth there. Lily was his
godmother; so what could be so bad about Sirius Black that he didn�t know?

�Now, he wants to finish what he�s started,�
Fudge interjected, handing Minerva her tumbler.

�And that�s not the worse of it,� Fudge
continued, taking a sip of fire whiskey.

�What could be worse?� Rosmerta
asked exasperated.

�This: Sirius Black was� and remains to this
day� Harry Potter�s godfather.�

Harry ran out of the pub. It couldn�t be
true! No, Severus was his godfather. He heard so much about Sirius, what a
wonderful man he was. There was no way possible!

�Harry, no!� Hermione yelled,
which was followed by, �EXPELLIARMUS!�

Harry was slowly pulled off the
convict by Hermione and they cowered right alongside Ron, who was watching the
events unfold.

�Well, well. Looking kind of
ragged, Sirius. Finally, the flesh reflects the madness within.�

�Well, you�d know all about the
madness within, wouldn�t you, Remus?� the man on the floor replied, a smirk
playing at the edge of his lips.

The professor helped Sirius to his
feet and was instantly embraced.

Sirius prattled on about �I�ve
found him� and �let�s kill him�. But Hermione stepped up with disbelieving eyes
at the two men.

�No! I trusted you!� she shouted
to Lupin then turned to Harry. �He�s a werewolf! That�s why he�s been missing
classes.� She was nearly in tears.

Harry looked to his uncle. He just
couldn�t take any more lies. No one, not even Remus, bothered telling him about
this very important fact! What else were they not telling him?

Remus cursed the young girl�all he
could see now was the disappointment on Harry�s dirty face. His affliction was
never meant to have been found out in such an uncaring way.

Amazed at her finding out about
his condition, he asked, �How long have you known?�

�Since Professor Snape set the
essay.�

�Well, well, well, Hermione, you really
are the brightest witch of your age,� Remus complimented.

�Enough talk, Remus! Let�s kill
him!� Sirius roared, effectively cutting all cross talk.

�Wait!� Lupin demanded of his
friend.

�I did my waiting! Twelve years of
it, in Azkaban!�

Remus sighed. He was stalling. �One more minute, Sirius. Harry has the right to know why.�

�I know why. He�s the reason
they�re dead,� Harry stated, upset at Remus and Sirius and his father.

�No, Harry it wasn�t him, I
thought so too. It was someone until quite recently, I believed to be dead!
Until you told me about the map,� Lupin explained.

�The map� was lying then,� Harry
admitted not really buying into the story.

�The map never lies, Peter Pettigrew
is alive! And he�s right here in this room and one way or another I�m going to
kill that lying son-of-a-bitch!�

However, the escapee didn�t get
his wish as another, �Expelliarmus!� was cast. Lupin�s wand was gone as well.

The dark foreboding figure of
Professor Octavious Snape stood at the threshold.
Obsidian eyes a lit with fire at seeing his son-in-law.

�I knew I�d find you, Black.�

oOoOoOo

Dinner was just beginning when the
double doors were thrown open, causing a loud boom within the hall, and all
chattering abruptly halted. The Headmaster, along with Minvera
as well as the other professors, stood as three wizards walked briskly towards
them.

Nothing could prepare the students
or the school�s staff for what Draco Malfoy did, as he ran not to who everyone
thought his father, but instead straight to the man standing beside
Lucius.�

�Dragon? My precious Dragon, my how you have grown,� James said,
failing to keep his voice steady, falling to one knee and hugging Draco.

�Father always knew. Harry and I
always knew�� the young Slytherin replied trailing off. He sniffled, fighting
back his tears. �We never gave up hope of seeing you again.�

�Draco, where�s Harry?� James
asked looking about the Great Hall failing to locate his other son. �Where�s
your brother?�

Just then the Black twins ran to
their mother forgetting about where they were standing, speaking openly.

�MUM! MUM! Harry and Hermione are
at the Shrieking Shack,� Ori said drawing the adults�
attention to the old yellow parchment.

Moving dots with names Harry
Malfoy, Hermione Granger, Ronald Weasley, Sirius
Black, Remus Lupin, Octavious Snape, and Peter
Pettigrew were floating around the house shaped diagram of the Shrieking Shack.

Lucius, James, and Severus shared
a look with one another as they heard the unmistakable sound of a werewolf
howling. They, along with Albus and Minerva, glanced
up to the enchanted ceiling of the hall.

The students around them wondered
what was going on, as they too peered at the bewitched ceiling, which was now
revealing a bright luminous full moon.

oOoOoOo

Octavious was not happy at being bested by a snot-nosed thirteen
year old brat. He came thundering out of the secret passage grabbing Harry
roughly by the arm intending on making the boy show him respect.

�There you are, Potter!� he
snarled, but the boy was ignoring him, which pissed him off even further.

Only when he heard the ominous
growling from behind him, did Snape turn around to realize why Harry and the
other teens were not paying attention to him.

Shocked at seeing the large
werewolf, Octavious immediately placed himself in
front of the children, shielding them from harm. He and the teens were knocked
down by the powerful paws of the feral werewolf.

The beast crouched low advancing
toward them. Hermione was holding onto the Snape for dear life while Harry
attempted to pull him out of striking range, when a grim jumped between them
and the menacing grey werewolf.

The hackles were raised on the big
black dog, its enormous head titled up showing white sharp teeth from an
upturned lip.

Silva dripped from the sides of
both animals mouths. In a flurry of growls and snarls, both gigantic beasts
clashed, going for each others throats.

oOoOoOo

Running down the hill to the Whomping Willow, Lucius could see the small figures of
Hermione behind Octavious. But Harry and Sirius was
nowhere in sight.

The group of professors and
parents surrounded them.

�Father, where is Harry and
Sirius?� Severus franticly asked.

Coming to his senses, Octavious realized that his son was talking to him. �Harry
chased that damn Lupin and Black�toward the lake, I believe.�

Without another word Severus, with
James right on his heels, took off running once again, leaving the others to
tend to his father and kids.

oOoOoOo

A patranous,
in the form of a large buck, paraded around the ice covered lake, forcing the Dementors to flee from their prey.�

A messy haired boy collapsed
beside the convict with his vision fading as he tried to focus on the mop of
raven hair and hazel eyes.� �

oOoOoOo

When Harry woke next, he was in
the familiar bed of the hospital wing with Hermione standing over him. He
instantly sat up.

�I saw my mum,� Harry told his
friend with hope.

Hermione looked kind of worried.
�Harry...your mum is dead,� she whispered, not really wanted to make him feel
any worse.

�No, he isn�t!�

He? Hermione thought. Harry must�ve hit his head harder than
Madame Pomfrey had originally thought.

�Now, Harry, you must be confused.
Madame Pomfrey did say you suffered a blow to the
head, and that might be affecting you.�

Harry opened his mouth to argue
that he wasn�t seeing things. He paused as the towering figure of his father
came into view with the one person he missed growing up.

�Mum?� Tears ran down his bruised
and bandaged face. �Dad.�

Hermione turned to see Lucius with
another gentleman. �I�m sorry, Mr. Malfoy. The dementors
did something to him�they�ve been affecting him since the start of term,�
Hermione explained, embarrassed.

But Lucius held up his hand. �It�s
quite alright, Miss Granger. I know that there were some facts kept from you
about Harry�s parentage. But believe me and Harry; it was not of our making.�

The other young man sat on the
other side of Harry�s bed, grabbing one his hands.

Harry gazed into sparkling hazel
eyes. �Hermione�� he sniffed. �I�I would like to introduce you to my mum�James
Potter-Malfoy,� Harry announced with pride, before succumbing to sleep again.

oOo TBC oOo

A/N: How was that? Was it
everything that you hoped for? I hope so! I wrestled with my muses for some
time over this chapter.

So, now what? James is back! Does that mean that Harry is going to have
a happy ending? And what about Severus? There was no
mention of Sirius and him getting back together. Did Sirius get Kissed? Don�t know? Well, stay tuned for the next chapter.

Nemesis

oOoOo Teaser for Chapter 18 oOoOo

�Albus,
you are not condoning such misguided actions?�

�I did warn you, Cornelius, that
you were making a grave mistake by removing young Harry from his father�s care,
and I also warned you to allow Sirius to remain here at Hogswarts
under my supervision. It has been documented by Madame Pomfrey
that you were informed that by removing Sirius from his soulmate
it would result in Severus losing his child,�
Dumbledore said briefly pausing. �Need I go on, Cornelius?�
