269Return To Life » by
potter8668
Someone asked me to try my hand at doing a story about one of Harry's parents either remaining alive or in a coma or something. This is my result. James Potter returns to life thanks to his wife Lily but not when he was supposed to. Instead it was a few years later, only to find that nothing was correct. It was now time to live up to his heritage. Dumbledore bashing.
