Danny blinked open his eyes. He looked around in amazement. Strangely enough, he was standing in the middle of a paved square. Several people, especially old people, stood around him and also looked around in amazement. Houses were lined up around the square, it looked as if it were in a town. Danny spotted a few people who appeared to be part of the city council. They bustled around talking to people and reassuring those who couldn't accept the fact that they had died. The boy went to one of them and tugged on his leg. The man looked down at him. He asked: "Well, kid? You just died, huh?" Danny nodded.
“Can you tell me where I am?” “Of course, kid,” said the man. “You are in the realm of the dead.” “Aha. And where exactly?” The man smiled. "At the arrival point. Or rather, on the new place." "Hm."
"Are your parents dead too?" Asked the man. "No, they are not. But they will be soon." "Why? Are you sick?" "No," said Danny and left. The man called something after him, but the boy did not hear him. It snaked through the dead legs and reached the edge of the square.
The boy chose a street he found interesting and started walking down it. It was a nice street. There were pretty buildings and villas everywhere and he couldn't get enough of the variety of colors. Everything was so peaceful here. He saw muggles and wizards and wondered if they would all live here as the living would wish on their side. Of course, he thought. What you did wrong in life you wouldn't want to do wrong again in death.
And then he wondered how puzzled a Muggle would look if he died and then suddenly found out that there were wizards, witches and magical beings and things like that.
He smiled. Could the magical beings also be drawn into the friendship between the two communities? Maybe.
Suddenly he hit something. He hadn't paid any attention to his way. Danny plopped on his bottom.
"Oh! Sorry little man," said the something he had bumped into. The voice was that of a man. “Did you hurt yourself?” Danny shook his head. “Where are your parents?” “They're not dead yet,” Danny said, looking up at the man's face.
"You look almost like Bella!" "Bella? Do you mean Bellatrix? How do you know my cousin?" The man asked in surprise. "Your cousin? Then you are Sirius Black!" "Yes, I am, but who are you?", The man asked now. "I'm Danny," Danny said, holding out his little hand.
Sirius took it and picked him up. "Uh? Stop that! Put me back down immediately! I can stand alone!" Danny protested as he was pressed against Siri's chest.
"Nothing there! So how do you know Bellatrix from?"" Well, uh ... uh ... yeah ... "Danny stammered." She ... uh ... she's my mom ... "he mumbled." I beg your pardon? I didn't understand the last part of your pampering. "" You ... I don't want to say that. "" Okay.
Where are you from? Did you just die? " "Yes I am. "" Well, then you probably don't have anyone to take you in either. Right? "Danny nodded.
"I'm going to Lily and James now. Are you coming with me?" Danny nodded again. "They're the Potters, aren't they?"
"Tell me, how do you all know us from?" "Well, I don't know all of them. But almost all of the Order of the Phoenix and all Death Eaters." "So, so?" Sirius smirked. "That amazes me. Who are you, kid? "" I'm Danny. And I've already said that, "Danny said defiantly now. Sirius smiled and continued on his way, still with Danny in his arms.
"Well? Do you like being carried now?" "Yes. I like it when you carry me. Just the way I like you." "So?" Sirius raised an eyebrow. "Yes." "You just said that I should let you down and that you can go alone." "Right. But now I'm glad that you are carrying me." Danny snuggled up against his carrier. "Why?" Danny replied depressed: "Nobody else does it."
"Tell me, how old are you Danny?" Sirius asked now. "Me?" Asked Danny "1 1/2."
"1 1/2? And you won't be carried by anyone anymore? And why are you talking so grown up? That's strange. At least for a child." Sirius frowned.
"I'm not a normal kid, Siri ..." Danny said quietly. Sirius stopped and looked at him. "So?" "No ... you know what? I think I have something to tell you," Danny said. "Well then, go ahead and shoot." Sirius grinned. The boy sighed fearfully.
"My father is Lord Voldemort and my mother is Bellatrix." Danny looked at Sirius with wide eyes. Would he drop it now? Would he hurt him? But Sirius did neither. He held him in his arms, stared at him and then said: "You want to be Voldi's son. Well, he was unlucky. After all, you are not like him. You are nice.
But now we should go further, otherwise I'll be too late. " "OK. Oh, by the way, you can always go on. I'll sit on your arm in case you've forgotten. " "Right. "Sirius grinned sheepishly.

Sirius had crossed the new place. So Danny would have gone in the wrong direction if he had wanted to go to the Potters from the start. But he hadn't wanted to. And he couldn't explain why he had let Siri persuade him to come with him. He wanted to be friends with them, but it was his father who killed Lilly and James.
"You, Siri ... I think I don't want to go with you." Sirius looked down at him, puzzled. "Why not, little one?" He asked. The boy didn't look at him. He played a little anxiously on the adult's sweater."Oh!" Came this now the enlightenment. "It's because of your father! You think that they don't like you because you are the son of their killer. But I don't think it is. Lilly is tolerant. She just smiled when I told her that I'm gay. But with Krone, so with James, that should be difficult. "The Black frowned.
He was only torn from his thoughts when Danny asked him with wide eyes: "You are gay?" Siri grinned. "Yep! And I'm proud of it." He ruffled the little one's hair. "Since when?" He asked again and got a barking laugh in response. "It has always been like that. But I only became aware of it in fifth grade. I fell in love with a house mate from our year, but unfortunately hopelessly. He dumped me as ice." "Who was it? Did he have you." turned off for being straight? ”Siri nodded, then smiled. "I don't think you know him. It was Jonathan Merrol. He looked really cute with his snub nose. Well, I'm over him. There are other men too."
"Why do you think that they take me well?" Danny came back to her main topic of conversation. There was another barking laugh. "Because they know that I usually have a very good understanding of people and because they don't look at someone's relatives and then say what kind of person you are. They look at you first and then they tell you. I am too from a family with black magic, but they didn't care who my parents were. "
Danny smiled. Yes, that was a good reason. He snuggled closer to Sirius' chest and closed his eyes. "I'm coming with you," he said and Siri smiled slowly.

Ding Dong.
"Lilly! Open up! I'm still on the toilet!" James called through the locked bathroom door. Lilly rolled her eyes. "Yes, yes, of course," she said and went to the door. She opened it and Sirius grinned at her. "Hello, Siri!", She was happy and hugged him first.
"Hello, Lilly! You, I brought a little friend for you and Krone." "Who?" Lilly looked around the doorstep. “I don't see anyone.” “You have to look down, Lilly.” She looked down and that's when she spotted him.
"Oh, you are cute! What's your name?" "My name is Danny. And could you please stop with the toddler stuff? I don't like it when I am treated like that.", Said the little one and looked at her firmly Eyes. "Oh, yes, of course. But tell me how old are you?" "1 1/2. But I'm different from the other children." Lilly was confused. "So ... I am ..." "Lilly Potter. I know." Lilly stared at the little one. "How does he know me from?" She asked, turning to Sirius. This one smiled. "You have to find out yourself, Lilly. But could we come in first?" "Uh, of course!" Lilly blushed. "Naturally."All three went into the living room. Lilly sat on an armchair and Sirius sat on the comfortable couch. Danny crawled into his lap. "Where's the crown?" Sirius asked, looking around the living room. "Oh, he's still in the toilet," said Lilly. "No, I'm not," said Krone and came into the room. "You are really too early, Padfoot," he grumbled now. "Krone, I almost always come too early and you're always late." "Pfö!"
Lilly tried to calm her husband down. "James, you and Siri are best friends. You can't be angry with him at all." "Exactly, you can't be angry with me at all," Sirius agreed and to make it clear he gave Krone his cutest puppy look. He knew that he would melt Krone with it. And this time too he was right. James stared at him defiantly at first, unwilling to give in to the gaze, but then he rolled his eyes. He sat down on the arm of his chair next to his wife. "You won. Again. But say who is the boy on your lap?" Asked Krone, still grumpy.
Danny spoke now. "If I could introduce myself?" He hopped off Sirius' lap and bowed, not realizing that he was looking sweet as sugar. "My name is Daniel Thomas Riddle. I am the Dark Lord's son." He straightened up and looked at the terrified two adults. The Riddle put on his brightest smile. "I ran into Sirius."
And he waited. Just like his great cousin. They didn't want to disturb the shocked silence, the married couple should do that alone.
Lilly was horrified. That super cute boy was the son of the man who killed James and her? Fortunately, the cruel man hadn't managed to murder her little Harry too. But now Lilly had his heir in the living room.
She looked scared at her husband. James looked at the little one very skeptically.
"You are the lord's son? He's a cold-blooded monster." "I know. But that my father is like that doesn't have to mean that I am like that too," Danny replied.
"You know, Krone, maybe you could just overlook who his father is and treat him like me too? He's really nice!", Sirius jumped into the breach for Daniel. "Well, of course I realize that
