Past, Present, and Future Part 4
Dumbledore held onto both Lily and James's arms and they somehow appeared into his office again.
"Please, sit down." Dumbledore said as he gestured the two seats in front of his desk. James and Lily did what they were told and sat down.
"I see you have met young Harry Potter and his friend, Ronald Weasley."
"Professor, we're sorry that we entered into the water without permission." said James. Dumbledore waved the appology aside and said, "No harm done. Curiosity isn't a sin, but you must be careful of it. For as you know, curiosity killed the cat."
"Sir, while we were in the water, James and I were wondering," said Lily, "That boy who looked like James, is he his son?"
"Yes, he is." Dumbledore said nodding, "And he is also your's too."
"Beg parden?"
"Harry Potter is both your's and James's son. You might be able to see the resemblance seeing as how young Harry has your eyes."
Lily and James looked at eachother for a moment and James said, "Sir, Lily and I had a nightmare during summer, it was like a vision."
"Go on."
"The nightmare was that Lily was older and she was playing with a baby boy named Harry but then I came into the room and sarted to say, 'Lily, it's Him. Take Harry and run!' and other stuff like that. And another man came into the room, but he didn't exactly look human. He was white as a skull, had spidery hands, and he was thin as a skeleton. I told Lily I'd hold him off and we dueled."
"James was killed," said Lily, "And the other man wanted to kill the baby and I was pleading him to kill me instead, and he did. We had this nightmare again last night, what does it mean?" Dumbledore stayed silent for a moment and said, "I'm afraid, that you, indeed, had a vision. That event will soon happen when you are in your twenties." Lily gasped and James looked horror-strucked.
"But, who takes care of Harry?" asked James
"You're second born's whereabouts, I don't know, but your first and third born children will stay with your sister, Mia."
"Why haven't we seen the first or third born in these visions, sir?" asked Lily
"They have been staying over at Mia's home during the event. That is all I know. Don't ask me anything else." James looked at the water of time and asked, "Where can we find the water of time?"
"You won't need to find it anywhere, for you see, I left it out for you two to keep." Lily and James looked at eachother again, "To keep, sir?"
"It will only be temporarily. I think it's wise for you to learn more about the future, but afterwards, if you can't bare to keep all these thoughts in your ead, I will have to erase them. But if you can, I will let you keep your memories. How long would you like to keep this?" James and Lily caught eachother's eye, as if they could read eachother's minds, Lily said, "Until graduation." Dumbledore nodded and allowed them to leave with the water of time. James took it into the Boys Dormitory and they hurried into the Great Hall for lunch
