Sorry for the re-upload but someone pointed out that apparently some parts were copy-pasted and thus probably annoying to read, I couldn't find any errors though, so maybe a re-upload will help. For me everything looks fine. Anyways, on with the story! Enjoy! 

Dumbledore was having a blast. He successfully managed to get Daniel to accept his invitation! Though, some parts of their conversation had him confused.

Why would he need this special medicine to stay away from his hometown for longer than just a week? He never heard of a disease like that before and he just hoped that it wasn't anything serious. Well, in the worst case scenario they had Poppy who would heal his disease. Couldn't have him die on him now.

The old wizard glanced at Severus who was following his own train of thoughts "Have you used Legilimency on him?"
"Huh? Eh, yes but he has a very strong wall protecting his mind. Or rather a shield, it was as though his mind subconsciously provided this shield. I don't think that he's an Occlumence though. Maybe the fact that he was so close to ectoplasm over such a long period of time has something to do with it. Magic doesn't really work around that stuff, right?"

Dumbledore nodded in agreement "As interesting as that is we ought to tell the others that they should be expecting a guest in two days time."
With that the wizard grabbed the potions master and apparated them to number 12 Grimmauld place. He entered and Snape followed behind him, trying to ignore the curious children who openly stared at him with annoyance and hatred in their eyes. He knew that he wasn't loved and he honestly didn't care whatsoever but he still felt as though he was disrupting the peace by just showing up. Why was he even here today? Albus could tell the Order about Daniel by himself.

They entered the meeting room (kitchen) and Severus ignored both Sirius and Remus. Mostly Sirius though. That dog was grinning at him menacingly.
Everyone quieted down as soon as Dumbledore took a deep breath "Everyone, I have joyous news for you. Today I learned that someone we thought was dead is actually alive and well and he will be joining us in Hogwarts and live here until the term starts."

The Headmaster smiled at the round as if he expected them to be just as excited as him but the people just looked very confused and Dumbledore reminded himself that he didn't tell them the name of the person. He really was getting old.
"He goes by Daniel Fenton now after he was adopted but his birth name is Daniel Potter."

That got him the reaction he wanted. The Weasley parents gasped and Remus and Sirius could only stare, tears of joy silently rolling down their faces.
Remus was Daniel's godfather, a role he had accepted albeit begrudgingly. He didn't want to put the kids in danger with his other half.
Now his godson whom he believed to be dead was actually alive? Why didn't he know until now? He did hear that his body wasn't found so maybe it was his fault for not looking into it more?

The werewolf gaped at the Headmaster and noticed how stiff Sirius had gotten. His poor friend saw the death of the Potters still as his own fault and hearing that another Potter survived that night must have shaken up a lot of different feelings inside him.
Remus also didn't know what to think or feel but he did realize that he felt excited, he would be meeting his godson soon. He could apologize to him, what was the job of a godfather anyways? He only saw the twins a couple of times, not as often as Sirius did and he always felt completely lost when he saw the two helpless and weak infants. He always hoped that he would grow into his role but fate had different ideas.

Before he could get anymore nervous Dumbledore continued "We have told him about the war and Harry and what happened to his biological parents. He seems to be very powerful and I intend to get him caught up on the past four schoolyears in the coming one and a half months. So please support him in any way.
I will pick him up the day after tomorrow and hope that one of you will bring him to Diagon Alley so that he can get everything he needs."
