At an early age, Keane Pettigrew learned his father died, fighting for a noble cause, killed by a madman and former friend, Sirius Black. Keane is left in the care of his grandmother after his mother dies tragically during childbirth. However, after a rough start, Keane lives a rather charmed life, growing up in the town of Fowey, where he spends his summers sailing, fishing, and of course, helping his grandmother tend to her garden. When Keane starts his first year at Hogwarts, he becomes friends with Harry Potter, Hermione Granger, and Ron Weasley after being sorted into the Gryffindor house. Just like his father. Over the course of a couple of school years, Keane finds himself tagging along on a rather wild adventure. However, the party comes to an end when Keane learns that Sirius Black has escaped Azkaban. Not only is Sirius responsible for the death of his father, but for the death of Harry's parents as well. Hogwarts is on high alert, an old friend of his father arrives to teach, dementors surround the castle on a daily basis, and Keane believes that Sirius is coming for him to finish what he started twelve years ago. And it's only his third year.

It has been over a year since the murder of his wife, Lily, and James Potter wishes every day that it is simply a nightmare that he will wake up from. Unfortunately, it isn't and in the wake of her death, James finds himself as a single parent to their son, Harry. The Boy-Who-Lived is known all around the wizarding world as the one to defeat Lord Voldemort on the same night that Lily was killed as the proclaimed "Dark Lord" attempted to rid of the child as well, yet failed. However, James is just trying to do his best in raising Harry in the most normal fashion as he can possibly muster but it's not easy. With one of his former best friends in Azkaban for the betrayal to the Order and his two remaining best friends not on speaking terms, James finds himself drowning in stress. Yet, relief comes in the form of a young woman, named Renata, and their first encounter is nothing short of a chaotic mess. But at the same time, it's the first thing that's made James laugh in months.

"When all this is over, we'll be a proper family, you'll see." Sirius Black had given a Marauder's promise to Harry Potter, his one and only godson, and he was desperate to stand by his word... but fate played against them. All it took was one stunning curse and a veil of death, to not only have this promise broken, but also have hearts shattered into shreds. Even before death took him as its own, Sirius was left to suffer everyday more than the one before. He had lost himself a long time ago and carried on from monotonous days and nights with zero will to pull himself back to the land of the living. [Speechless pain and haunting memories possess the ability to take down even the most powerful of all, those who were desperate to keep themselves standing upright.] What could have happened in an alternative universe (AU) -different ending scenario to- the Order of the Phoenix, and what would follow after turning points of events are what brought this story into existence. Will death be cruel enough to seperate godfather from his godson, without giving them the chance to live as a true family, at least for once as promised? Is the threat of death something to be endured only once?
