I don't own any of the characters. All credit goes to the Epic J.K. Rowling of course and always.

Harry

Ginny instructed everyone to settle in the kitchen and waved her wand, setting up beef pie, and onion soup with bread. While they sat in front of us in a row, we sat opposite them.

"What did you do that brought this upon?" I asked Albus.

"I was driven." He sniffed, "I blamed you for being famous. For being the boy who lived. I blamed you for Cedric Diggory's death."

I stiffened and instinctively, Ginny's fingers came around my hand.

"I went back in time to save his life. But that failed of course." He chuckled sadly. I watched Lily hold his shoulder, "With me was my best friend and this woman who called herself Delphi."

"Oh, who's your best friend?" Ginny asked excited. I looked over at her and she rolled her eyes.

"Scorpius. Malfoy."

"What?" I gasped.

"Funny. That was your reaction the first time I told you he's my best friend." He pursed his lips, "Should I tell him the other thing too?" He looked at Lily. Lily smacked his shoulder and James chuckled, shaking his head.

"He's also in Slytherin."

I gasped at them and Ginny burst out laughing.

"I'm proud of you." She beamed and I just stared between the laughing four. I smacked the table and all went quiet.

"Finish your story."

"Oh, erm, right. Delphi, claimed to be Amos Diggory's niece until we realized too late that no such person existed. She was actually Bellatrix's daughter. With Voldemort."

"Oh, my God. That's disgusting." Ginny shook her head.

"Hey, that was me too." Lily nodded, "I mean that pasty white man, who would want to have... well a relationship with that."

"Merlin, you're your mother." I muttered to myself.

"Thank you." Lily fixed her glasses and flipped her hair off her shoulder.

"Erm, anyway, Delphi tricked us and tried to take us back to Godric's Hollow on the night Grandpa James and Grandma Lily passed. She tried to stop Voldemort from killing them so as to save his life by killing Dad herself. We ended up stopping them and thought it was over until Saphire showed." Albus inhaled a staggering breath.

"That is one stretched plan." Ginny huffed.

"I know." Albus nodded, "But dad, it turned out that while we had these few attempts of time turning in the early years, Delphi managed into a time somewhere in the last few years and hid Saphire in the Lestrange Hut. Its offside to Piercing's mountain. About sixty miles past north of London."

"What?"

"Yeah." James straightened now, "After your murder, I attended Saphire's trial and she mentioned that she'd been waiting down there for ninteen years to come out and finish her family's job. Saphire was thirty-one when she gave this statement."

"Delphi and Rodolphus managed to pick Saphire up from the Wool's Orphanage and put her down there, filling her up with the idea that she must rise to help when Delphi comes for her. I think after the news of Delphi's arrest and then trial reached Saphire, she made sure to come finish you." James rubbed his jaw.

"Wait, Wool's? Isn't that the orphanage Voldemort was in?"

"Yeah." I nodded.

"We cant kill Saphire." Ginny turned to them, "She's merely sixteen."
