************************************************************************ **

Rain poured down from the heavy, grey clouds as a dark haired man ran into the grocery store from his truck. A shiver ran down his back
when he encountered the store AC.


The man signed as he looked at his shopping list and headed down the closest row of shelves. He sighed as he studied his options of two different
brands of peanut butter.


"What is the difference? Both are made from peanuts. It can't be this hard!" He grumbled in frustration.


"Sirius! When did you get back!? Are the guys back as well?" An excited female voice asked.


Sirius turned tired, sad eyes to the woman. The woman was older, just over 50 years old. She had always been around when they would visit.


"Hey, Gracie. No, they'll be flying back tonight. I came home early to get the house ready."


Gracie frowned, "But you can Floo into your house. Why didn't they just Floo back with you?" she asked in confusion then she seemed to realize
something, "Does this have anything to do with why y'all had to leave so suddenly?"


Sirius nodded," Harry was taken. We had to go." He replied, his throat thick as he remembered the Floo call they got in the middle of the night six weeks ago.


Gracie gasped, "Your Godson? Was it You-Know-Who?"


Sirius nodded, "For the most part." He took a deep breath then went on, "Harry has lost a lot in these last six weeks. Lily is dead. Her husband betrayed them.
Harry tried to save her, but couldn't."


"I'm so sorry Sirius! How--How is he?" Gracie asked softly with tears in her eyes.


"Only time will tell. He is still healing."Sirius said sadly then his eyes lit up, "Harry is going to be living with us. He can't Floo, Port, or Apparate because his leg was
severely shattered. He is flying over with Severus, Lucius and Remus."


Gracie smiled softly through her tears, "Is there anything you need help with? I have the day free and can help with anything."


Sirius smiled, "That would be great. Remus and Severus usually do the shopping, can you help me get these groceries?"


Gracie nodded and took the list, "No problem."

Sirius stood in the check out line as his items were rung up going over things that needed to be completed before Harry arrived.


"What else do you need to get done?" Gracie asked from where she stood next to him."I can get him enrolled at Forks High unless you've already done it."


Sirius looked relieved, "That would help more than you know!"


Gracie laughed, "I'll just need you to fax me his papers. I'll send you a list of what I'll need."


Sirius smiled, "Thanks"


Gracie nodded and Sirius was on the way out when he paused in the doorway.


"Gracie," He waited til she looked up then finished with a sad smile, "He won."


Gracie gaped as he ran through the rain to his truck.


'Looks like I've got a few people to call.' She thought as she went back through the aisles to get her own groceries.

Sirius drove the long ride home deep in thought.


Wizards had thought them odd when three Purebloods had moved to live in a Muggle town in America to live with Remus after graduation. It was a
small town that was full of mostly Muggles, but there were several squibs as well and Magical Creatures and a few Wizards or Witches


They had visited Remus in Forks regularly, along with James and Lily, while they were on break for the summer. People knew easily who they were
and loved talking with the newbies. James and Lily had wanted to move to American as well but had things that needed completed back in England.
James and Lily had Remus, Severus, Lucius and Sirius go ahead and move to Forks, Washington and they visited often.


It was the night Voldemort attacked that changed everything. James died that night protecting Lily and Harry. Ever since Lily pulled away from them.
She allowed Harry to visit and he knew everything he needed to for war. He acted like a kid, carefree and fun loving until Lily started dating an old classmate,
Gibson Brown.


Lily started neglecting Harry. She barely spent time with him or even talked to him unless with was to critic Harry's skill. Harry spent a lot of time with his
Godfathers until a few months ago. He was rarely seen except for training. They only just found out that Lily had been allowing Gibson to "Punish" Harry
when he felt Harry had done wrong. When Harry had refused to break Gibson had killed Lily then given Harry to Voldemort.


They talked with Harry and had informed him that they were going to move back to England. He refused. he told them he wanted to start fresh, there were too
many memories there that hurt. He loved Forks when he would visit and had planned to move there when the war was over. Now was his chance.


Sirius signed heavily when he came to a stop outside his house and just stared at it. It was set back into the woods away from the road. It was an old fashioned,
Gothic style house Remus's grandfather had designed after several different castles he liked. It was huge on the outside and even bigger on the inside. You couldn't
see it from outside, but there was a 'Safe Room' for Remus when he turned every month. Pass the house was a huge garage that housed most of the cars and all of
their motorcycles, even the one they just bought for Harry.


Quickly as he could, Sirius made a few trips to bring the groceries into the kitchen. He quickly put everything away as he left ingredients out for a good meal Harry
would need to eat once they got home.


He was about to start dinner when a knock sounded at the door. He ran to the door and opened it when he saw Gracie.


She held out a casserole dish with a grin, "I had Brian get it started . The rest is in the car if you'll grab it."


Sirius smiled and stepped outside, "Thanks Gracie."


She smiled and hurried to the kitchen. Placing the dish in the oven she looked around. Shaking her head she put up the items Sirius was going to use.


"Thank you again, Gracie. This helps alot." Sirius smiled as he placed the last three dished on the counter.


"It was the least I could do. Not only will he be a resident of our town, but he also saved my nephew. He just doesn't know it." Gracie said as she grabbed
cleaners out of the cabinet under the sink.


"I'll clean up in here and the bathrooms. You just straighten up. It's almost time for you to run anyways. I'll finish up and lock up for you." Gracie said with a smile.


Sirius nodded an ddid as he was told. He had grown up with Gracie's mothering and was use to her ordering him around.

Sirius grabbed his jacket and a set of keys.


"I'm out Gracie."


"Alright hon! I'll finish this up and let myself out." She called back and he ran back out into the rain to the garage.


Sirius open the door of a huge SUV and climbed in.

A group of seven beautiful people sat in the living room of their large mansion. They were just sitting around, talking when the littlest girl stopped mid-sentence.


Everyone turned to look at her only to see a small smile grace her beautiful face.


"Alice? What is it?" A beautiful woman called Esme asked curiously.


The pixie sized vampire smiled, "The residence of Lupin Manor are back, and they brought someone with them."


The only other girl of the group frowned, "What does that have to do with us?"


Alice's grin grew, "He will have a large effect on our future."


The group sat back as the news sunk in.

Sirius walked into the slightly crowded airport. He looked around and headed to the correct terminal.


"Padfoot." A raspy voice called out to him.


Sirius looked up and smiled as he saw Harry walking down the terminal. Severus and Remus on either side with Lucius behind him. Upon
seeing him, Severus and Remus headed over to baggage.


Sirius walked the rest of the way to Harry and picked him up gently into a hug, "'How do you feel, Pup?" he asked softly.


Harry tensed then hugged back, "I'm fine." he rasped with his head on Sirius's shoulder.


Remus walked back over with Severus and the luggage, "Lets go home." he said gently and led the way to the car.
