I open my eyes to see Harry staring at me.
"What happened, Harry? What place is this? ", I ask.
Harry bites his lip and says, "It's heaven, Fred".
"I died?", I ask.
"Afraid so", he says.
"George", I think.
"You died too? What happened to you-know-who? ", I ask.
"Actually, I'm not Harry, I'm James Potter, Harry's father ", he says.
"Oh, I'm sorry Mr. Potter ", I say.
"You can call me James. I think you know me better as prongs", he says.
"You are prongs? The 'prongs'? Marauder's map 'prongs'? ", I ask.
"Yes", he says.
"Wow. Me and George always thought you were a genius ", I say.
He smiles and says, "You gonna lie down forever? ".
I smile and get up.
"You look exactly like Harry", I say.
"I know", he says.
"My family? ", I ask.
"Mourning you", he says.
I don't speak for a long time and James doesn't speak either.
"My wife, Lily Potter ", he says.
"Pleased to meet you, Mrs. Potter", I say.
"Likewise", she says "And by the way call me Lily".
"Prongs, come here", a long haired man calls.
"Hi, Fred", he says.
"Hello, Sirius", I say.
"You want to see your family? ", he asks.
I nod and follow him.
I see all of them, at Hogwarts, sitting at a table. All of them look like they haven't slept a wink, most of their eyes red from crying.
James and Lily put a hand on my shoulder. I must have been crying.
"It's okay, Fred", Lily whispers reassuringly.
I nod.
"What happened yesterday? Who all died? ", I ask.
"Harry defeated Voldemort. Remus and his wife, Colin Creevey, Lavender Brown, Vincent Crabbe and many death eaters", he says .
I nod slowly. Sirius says," Don't worry, Fred. Your death would be difficult for your parents to cope with. But they'll manage".
"Ok", I say.
