"Your mother wants to see your memories"

——————————————————————————————————

Harry sighed, He knew that this request was going to come eventually, but now, ugh, he would have to suck it up and show them.

Harry finally decided to get out of bed and go downstairs. When he went downstairs he was met by a round of applause

"We are blessed, The Boy Who Lived finally decided to wake up," Sirius said clearing the mystery in Harry's hand.

Harry decided to embrace the moment and he came down with victory signs.

(This actually happens in my family)

Lily and James laughed along with Remus and Sirius who were roaring their heads out.

"I like to thank my bed for getting me to this amazing moment," Harry said making his victory speech

"Bloody hell mate" Harry heard Ron say

"What the hell Ron" Harry exclaimed as he flushed when he realized that Ron heard him make his victory speech "Where did you come from?"

"The Burrow" Hermione answered

"you too!!" Harry shouted and then ran over to both of them and hugged them forgetting about his injuries. He winced as he hugged them but ignored it. When they pulled apart Ron and Hermione both noticed Lily and James and made puzzled looks

"These are my parents," Harry told them

"Harry, your parents are well, dead" Hermione said softly

"I know, but remember how I told you about the incident that happened last year?" Harry asked choosing his words carefully so that his parents don't figure anything out.

"yea?" Ron answered

"Well, when I was 'seeing people' a charm was activated which enabled them to come back to life," Harry explained

Hermione made an oh sound and then said "but that's a really rare charm"

Harry shrugged

"Hello, is anyone going to introduce them to us?" James said trying to embarrass his son, which worked because Harry turned Weasley red

"sorry dad" Harry apologized "This is Hermione Granger, and Ron Weasley," he said pointing to both of them

"Hi Mrs. and Mr. Potter," Hermione said shaking hands followed by Ron

"What are we 50? Nah kid, call us Lily and James" James said

Hermione blushed and mumbled ok.

"Why are you here?" Harry asked

"Sirius and Remus invited us over" Ron explained. Harry turned around and gave a grateful smile to both of them

"I was about to show my parents our memories of our first year, you wanna see?" Harry asked

"sure" answered Hermione

"whenever you're ready then," Harry said

"minidium memoris" James said performing the charm which would enable them to see all of Harry's memories inside his head

Suddenly all 6 of them felt a whoosh as they saw Harry sag into the couch, Then they found themselves in a place which looked like a cupboard.

"Harry? Why are we inside a small cupboard" Lily asked not noticing the tiny raven headed boy lying down. Suddenly there was a sharp knock on the 'door' and a sharp voice that said "BOY, WAKE UP RIGHT NOW, YOUR UNCLE WILL BE RIGHT HERE"

All of them were startled except for Harry who knew what would happen

"is this your room Harry?" Asked James

Harry just gave a sad smile and nodded as all the adult's face's turned red.

Then they saw young Harry get up with a sigh rubbing his eyes. When young Harry stood up everyone could see all the injuries that he had. Bruises, burns, lacerations and the list went on and on.

Older Harry refused to make eye contact with anyone else since he knew that there were tears in their eyes and he was in no mood to be pitied.

(a/n I am pretty sure u don't want to read the whole book here so I'm only showing the most important parts)

After a few hours a memory came in when young Harry was washing the dishes and he accidentally dropped one and it broke, Older Harry who knew what was going to happen buried his face into his mum who comforted him.

Suddenly Uncle Vernon came in as soon as he heard the crash. Young Harry's eyes filled with fear as his uncle dragged him into an old deserted room.

"We took care of you even with your freakiness and this is how you repay us!!!" Uncle Vernon shouted

"n-no s-sir" Young Harry stuttered

"I don't believe that you are sorry, Look's like I have to teach you a lesson," Vernon said evil as he pulled out his belt and began hitting Harry with it.

Everyone in the room closes their eyes as they could already hear Harrys' screams and they didn't want to see it.

Year after year passed and Harry's face was solemn, but, Harry stood up abruptly and smiled when they came into his Dudleys 12th Birthday. The others noticed his face and wondered what could have happened.

A few hours passed and they were at the point where Vernon was tapping the glass to wake the snake up.

"This is boring," Dudley moaned. He shuffled away.

Harry moved in front of the tank and looked intently at the snake. He wouldn't have been surprised if it had died of boredom itself -- no company except stupid people drumming their fingers on the glass trying to disturb it all day long.

The snake suddenly opened its beady eyes. Slowly, very slowly, it raised its head until its eyes were on a level with Harry's.

It winked.

Harry stared. Then he looked quickly around to see if anyone was watching. They weren't. He looked back at the snake and winked, too.

The snake jerked its head toward Uncle Vernon and Dudley, then raised its eyes to the ceiling. It gave Harry a look that said quite plainly:

"I get that all the time.

"I know," Harry murmured through the glass, though he wasn't sure the snake could hear him. "It must be really annoying."

The snake nodded vigorously.
"Where do you come from, anyway?" Harry asked.

The snake jabbed its tail at a little sign next to the glass. Harry peered at it.

Boa Constrictor, Brazil. "Was it nice there?"

The boa constrictor jabbed its tail at the sign again and Harry read on: This specimen was bred in the zoo. "Oh, I see -- so you've never been to Brazil?"

As the snake shook its head, a deafening shout behind Harry made both of them jump.

"DUDLEY! MR. DURSLEY! COME AND LOOK AT THIS SNAKE! YOU WON'T BELIEVE
WHAT IT'S DOING!"

Dudley came waddling toward them as fast as he could.

"Out of the way, you," he said, punching Harry in the ribs. Caught by surprise, Harry fell hard on the concrete floor. What came next happened so fast no one saw how it happened -- one second, Piers and Dudley were leaning right up close to the glass, the next, they had leapt back with howls of horror.

Harry sat up and gasped; the glass front of the boa constrictor's tank had vanished. The great snake was uncoiling itself rapidly, slithering out onto the floor. People throughout the reptile house screamed and started running for the exits.

As the snake slid swiftly past him, Harry could have sworn a low, hissing voice said, "Brazil, here I come... Thanksss, amigo."

The keeper of the reptile house was in shock.
"But the glass," he kept saying, "where did the glass go?"

The others were in tears after this. They all laughed until their sides hurt.

Memory after memory, Their house filling up with letters, Hagrid tell him that he is a wizard, Him at his first quidditch match ("good old Minnie" James exclaimed). Them figuring out about the sorcerers stone, Harry going in alone after Hermione solved the potions puzzle.

Quirrell smiled. His face wasn't twitching at all.

"Me," he said calmly. "I wondered whether I'd be meeting you here, Potter."

"But I thought -- Snape --"

"Severus?" Quirrell laughed, and it wasn't his usual quivering treble, either, but cold and sharp. "Yes, Severus does seem the type, doesn't
he? So useful to have him swooping around like an overgrown bat. Next to him, who would suspect p-p-poor, st-stuttering P-Professor Quirrell?"

Harry couldn't take it in. This couldn't be true, it couldn't. "But Snape tried to kill me!"

"No, no, no. I tried to kill you. Your friend Miss Granger accidentally knocked me over as she rushed to set fire to Snape at that Quidditch match. She broke my eye contact with you. Another few seconds and I'd have got you off that broom. I'd have managed it before then if Snape hadn't been muttering a countercurse, trying to save you."

"Snape was trying to save me?"

"Of course," said Quirrell coolly. "\Why do you think he wanted to referee your next match? He was trying to make sure I didn't do it
again. Funny, really... he needn't have bothered. I couldn't do anything with Dumbledore watching. All the other teachers thought Snape was trying to stop Gryffindor from winning, he did make himself unpopular... and what a waste of time, when after all that, I'm going to kill you tonight."

James was surprised when he found out that Snape was trying to help Harry but he kept quiet. They watched as Harry burned Quirrell's face off and how he fell unconscious.

The next memory they watched was Dumbledore talking to Harry about how he escaped Voldemort because of his mother's LOVE. The last memory they saw from that year was Gryffindor winning the house cup and Hagrid giving him the album.

Then they were all transported out of Harry's memories when Harry said: "Year 1, The least dangerous one" as everyone groaned.
