Meeting the Parents and Ministry time
Hogwarts Infirmary
Harry was sitting on the hospital bed in shock. Madame’s pomphrey, Bones, and Mckinnon were sitting off to the side of the infirmary to give Harry some space after the recent shock and to speak with who they hope are the Potters.
The infirmary door opened drawing the occupants attention to the Headmaster who walked in. but who Harry focused his attention on was the two adults behind the headmaster. There was a tall man with hazel brown eyes and glasses with messy black hair. And a mischievous if not protective glin in his eyes. Harry looked away and towards the woman, she was slightly shorter than the man and had vibrant red hair that looked like fire, she had bright Emerald eyes that held a loving light and were full of righteous fury. It took Harry a minute or two before he realized who they were.
Without warning Harry jumped off the bed and ran towards the two people, who stopped and had tears forming in their eyes as he ran to them. When Harry reached them he was crying.
“MUM, DAD” yelled Harry as he jumped at them hugging them as if they were a lifeline.
The two were only glad to be holding their son after all this time. The three family members broke down holding each other. Lily whispered sweet nothings to a sobbing Harry as he held on for dear life.
Lily took a second look at Harry and started crying as she looked at her son.
“Harry, darling what happened to you, are you ok? Who do I need to hurt?”
Harry looked up and saw how worried his mother looked and shook his head and looked down.
“Don’t, Madame Bones is taking care of them, if you do something you’ll be arrested.” Harry started crying again “I can’t lose you again mum. I just can’t”
Lily Sighed and nodded looking at James, then back at harry.
“Harry?” She whispered.
Harry looked up and waited for the rest of the question
“Dumbledore told us you signed a contract for a diet plan?” whispered lily
Harry nodded and looked down as if they were disappointed in him.
“Yes, I chose the contract with the lower amount of calories I need to have daily so the changes my body goes through won’t be as extreme as it would be if I chose the higher one.”
Harry looked up and panicked and said “I don’t have to go through with it if you don’t want me to look like that! I’ll change it to something you and Dad’ll like better if you want!”
Lily and James looked heartbroken and shook their heads. “You don’t have to change it at all Harry, are you going to be happy with that though?” Said Lily softly.
Harry smiled and nodded “Anything is better than being able to count all of my ribs and feel my spine.”
James smiled as he ruffled Harry’s Hair “Ok prongslet. also it doesn’t matter to us what you look like. You could be skinny as a rail, or big as a house and we wouldn't care either way just as long as you're happy and healthy.”
James smiled softly at Harry before smirking mischievously. “And if you're happy with swelling up like an overfill puff pastry, then I say that that’s the perfect you.”
Lily glared lightly at James before turning her attention back to Harry who was giggling at his father’s goofy attitude before looking up at them through his bangs.
“So you’re ok with me getting fat from this?” asked Harry shyly
Lilly smiled at the innocent look Harry gave them and nodded. “Yeah luv, if it’s what you want then your father and I will be with you one hundred percent of the way.”
Harry smiled and hugged them closing his eyes and before falling asleep whispered “I love you”
James and Lily’s eyes watered at that before standing up and looking at the others who were smiling softly at the trio. Lily and James went over to them and started to discuss what would happen to the Dursley’s and how to help Harry with the medical problem he faces. After Amelia and Madame Mckinnon left Lilly and James went to speak to Poppy.
“Poppy, What are Harry’s medical issues and what can we do to help him?” Lily asked, full of worry.
Poppy sighed “Young Harry has at least three issues. The other ones he should have were healed by his magic so they are of no use to discuss. The first two go hand in hand with treatment. The first one is his malnutrition which is going to be fixed by the contract when school starts. The second one I was given information by the Goblin on how to fix.”
Lily saw the concerned look and Poppy’s face “Poppy what is it.”
Poppy sighed “It’s something called a horcrux,” Albus stiffened
“The Goblins have a ritual to remove it but it has some strange requirements for it to bea safe as possible and not hurt him.”
Lily and James looked at each other in worry and asked poppy two questions
“One what is a horcrux” asked Lily
“And two, what are the requirements for Harry to survive the ritual?”
Poppy smiled dimly at the two worried parent’s “A horcrux is a foul piece of magic, it's a soul shard embedded into a person or object.”
The two elder potters looked horrified that that was inside harry.
Poppy continued “For Harry to have the best chance to make it through the horcrux fighting to not be removed, Harry must be able to hold a large amount of magic in his body to force it out and heal him once it is over.”
Lily spoke “What can we do to ensure that Harry is able to hold that much magic?”
Poppy stared at Lily in dry amusement “That Lily is the funny part. To hold magic inside of the body for a ritual like this the body must be large enough to hold it. Since Harry won't be going through a growth spurt relating to height soon, it will mean he has to… well…”
Poppy stumbled over her words trying to figure out what to say
James was getting impatient; this was his son’s health they were talking about. ‘Spit it out Poppy!”
Poppy sighed, “Your son has to get extremely fat.”
Lily and James were stunned silent. They looked at each other and chuckled
Poppy looked at the two as if they were crazy. Seeing the look Lily decided to explain.
“Poppy, Harry was telling us about why he chose to go through with the contract diet plan before he fell asleep. He told us that he chose the contract plan because He didn’t want to see his ribs or feel his spine anymore. And wanted to know what it was like to be heavier.”
James smiled “Yeah little guy, knows what he wants. And if he ever wants to change how he looks after then we're going to support him.” James' smile turns bitter “Like we should have been doing this the whole time.”
Albus held a hand on James' shoulder “James it wasn't your fault. If any one is to be blamed it’s your secret keeper for giving your location to Voldemort.”
James scowls at the mention of the secret keeper and looks down “Yeah lousy good for nothing pettigrew. Should go to Azkaban and kill him myself for ratting us out.”
Albus froze at the mention of pettigrew. Looking worried he looked at James “You mean Sirius right?”
James looked angry at the thought “No Sirius was never our secret Keeper hw was the decoy to keep Peter safe from being a target! Why what happened to Sirius!”
Albus paled as he spoke “After you and Lily were killed sirius went after peter due to none of us knowing he wasn’t the secret keeper he was sent to Azkaban with the minister at the time stating that a trial was not nessecary due to it being well known that he was your secret keeper.”
James' face turned a bright red in anger before taking a deep breath calming himself down. “Lily take Harry to potter manor. Albus, we're going to the ministry. We’re going to fix this.”
Timeskip
Albus and James made their way to the DMLE on their way there many wizards and witches stared at James as if he was a ghost. When they reached Amelia’s office they heard arguing coming from the inside. As the two walked in they saw Amelia arguing with a stout man with a green bowler hat. This was the minister for magic Cornelius Fudge. The topic they two seemed to be arguing about was Harry's home life. Amelia was pushing for the removal of Harry from the dursley’s while Fudge wanted to let everything be.
James fury grew ten fold at the mention of forcing his son to stay with the people who abused him. Along with the information that Sirius was in Azkaban he marched over to Fudge and grabbed him by the collar.
“You listen here you overgrown Leprechaun reject. If you even think about forcing my son back to those monsters you will have to full might of potter and gryffindor fall on you. Do I make myself clear!”
Fudge turned a shade of puce and spoke “and who do you think are threatening me, I am the minister of magic I command you to release me!”
James glowered at the horrid man infront of him. “I AM THE LORD OF HOUSE POTTER AND GRYFFINDOR JAMESON FLEAMONT POTTER GRYFFINDOR HOW DARE YOU PRESUME TO ORDER ME CORNELIUS FUDGE.”
Fudge turned white and started stuttering. “Y-y-you c-c-can’t be h-h-him h-he’s d-d-dead!”
Albus showed himself while Amelia watched amused “Now Cornelius I have already confirmed that James is who he says he is. I made him swear an oath.”
Fudge if possible paled further. Before he could reply james spoke. “Now Fudge, I am going to say this once and if it is not followed you will pay.”
Fudge nodded james continued “You will set Sirius free seeing as how you didn’t give him a trial to begin with. And before you say he’s a traitor he was not my secret keeper that was pettigrew. So I expect my friend to be released and a statement made to the prophet stating that Sirius is innocent and that me and Lily are now among the living. Do we have an understanding?”
Fudge nodded rapidly and scurried out of the office. James turned to Amelia and spoke
“Its great to see you again Amelia how are you?”
“I am finr James now I believe you just went about freeing your friend. Is there something else you wanted to discuss with me?”
James nodded “Yes, can we have the guardianship of my son transferred to myself and Lily again?”
Amelia nodded “yes, that is easily done I’ll have it done as soon as possible.
Timeskip (Pretend Sirius is taken out and fudge give the press conference. James goes to Gringotts and takes his Lorship rings and returns to potter manon. where Sirius will meet harry next chapter.) - Sry I just don’t want to write all of the dialouge for the conference or the reunion of James and Sirius. Just imagine it was tearful and sappy.
