"I will not be joining you." Lauren told her second in command. |
"What? Why?" Haley asked confused. |
"Natasha has asked me to stay and help with the children’s education. I’ve agreed to it." |
Lauren waved a dismissive hand. "No Haley. That time has passed. There is another who holds my affections now, and he is a wonderful man. We have discussed marriage. Actually it’s perfect timing, because he is away on business. I will be gone for only three weeks." Lauren put her hand on her friend’s shoulder. "I’ll be... |
"Oh all right." Haley huffed. "Just be careful sis." Haley hugged her friend. |
"Always." Lauren hugged her back. |
TIME SKIP. FIRST WEEK IN THE TIME BUBBLE |
Fred was now wholeheartedly convinced. Leo was a fucking sadist. |
It started the moment that the ladies of The Coven departed. Fred and George exchanged contact information. George was curious as to what a cellphone was, but made a mental note to ask Aditi. |
Fred was going to miss Shakina. She was a kindred spirit, and they had decided to become something that she called a pen pal. |
But now. At this point in time, Fred wanted to kill Leo. |
Leo himself was having to rethink his plans. He was actually astonished at the lack of physical training that these wizards had. He tried to follow the schedule that was agreed upon, however the twins were quickly exhausted after fifteen minutes. Leo decided to tweak things a bit. How the hell were you supposed to figh... |
Leo looked at the twins panting on the ground and smirked. "Alright boys, that was beyond pathetic. I see now the schedule will have to be tweaked. We will work on endurance first, and then we will switch to combat. Fred and George, pick yourselves up from the lawn and follow me." Leo commanded. |
"He hates us." George panted. |
"Oh yeah." Fred agreed. |
And so it began, that Leo slowly introduced them into cardio exercise. After about a month, they were ready to start on the previously agreed upon schedule. It was slow going, but the twins were getting better. They actually started to make a competition out of it. |
You could tell that they were both pleased with the subtle changes in their physique. |
The school work that they had to endure was refreshing. They both learned so much about magical history around the world. They were more than shocked at how the rest of the world saw magical Britain. |
"What do you mean many countries mock us." Fred asked. |
"You need to understand little one. Britain is held up as an example of what could happen if corruption were to take hold. Your government didn’t handle the Voldemort problem properly the first time around. His followers bought their way out of prison, and they still hold prominent positions in your governing body." La... |
"Your version of law enforcement is not allowed to outright kill someone, even if they are being attacked with what you consider to be dark curses. The VAST majority of the wizarding world think that the British are misguided for that reason alone." Lauren looked to Natasha. |
"How much do you love Harry?" Natasha asked Fred. |
Fred narrowed his eyes. "With everything that I am." |
"Me as well." George answered. |
"Would you kill for him?" Natasha asked. |
And for the first time that he could remember, Fred hesitated for a fraction of a second. |
"Kill?" Fred murmured while looking in the distance. He had been taught that all life was sacred. To kill someone, would that make him a monster? He shook his head to clear it and gave an answer from his heart. "To save him, I would." |
"Are you sure? Because that is what you are going to learn here. How to protect your kin, and your lover. You have to understand something. Both of you do. Your little merry band of Death Eaters don’t give a shit. They will cast the mind curse on you, and watch while you rape your sister and they will enjoy themselves ... |
Fred and George looked at each other in the silent conversation that most twins had. |
"We agree." George said. |
"Absolutely." Fred concurred. |
"Goody! We will ramp up training, starting tomorrow!" Leo clapped with a smile on his face like a child in a candy store. |
"Oh no." Both Weasley males groaned. |
"Oh I’m not that bad am I?" |
George was about to say something, but was nudged in the ribs by his brother. |
"Thought so. See you two in the morning!" Leo chimed in happily. |
"You know brother mine. I think it’s time for a prank war." George said as he watched everyone leave their room. |
"Right you are brother of mine. We will show them British ingenuity." |
Little did they know how wrong they were in starting a prank war with a potions mistress and a charms mistress. Not to mention a Healer. |

Hermione was not faring much better than Fred and George. Her father was not pulling any punches with her exercise routine. It had only been a few days, but she thought she was going to die. |
"Dad." Hermione panted while bent over holding her knees. "Please. I’ve never been particularly athletic." |
"You were the one who wanted to do this Peanut. From what Remus tells me, most witches and wizards are useless when it comes to physical altercations. You will learn to defend yourself." Her father said sternly. |
Hermione sighed and sat up. "Yes daddy." |
"Again. Dodge!" Her father yelled. |
Hermione was dodging rubber balls that her parents were throwing at her. She had started the day stretching, then a run, then sit ups. Her body was screaming at her to stop. Now however, her parents were simulating spells being thrown at her, and she realized how out of shape she was. She knew she wouldn’t last two min... |
Ron wasn’t fairing much better. Currently he was doing squats without weights. He did the same stretching, run, and sit ups that Hermione did. It was determined that Ron wasn’t as bad at dodging, mainly from wrestling with his older brothers. He would still practice dodging, but Remus wanted him to work on his overall ... |
"Remus please. You’re killing me here mate!" |
Remus shrugged. "You’ll get used to it I promise. But I think we are done with the exercise portion of the day." Ron fell to the floor. |
Remus chuckled as he turned to the Grangers. "Ladies and Gentleman. That’s it for the day on exercise. Everyone get cleaned up. There is some ointment for muscle and joint pain. Head upstairs and get cleaned up for lunch." |
Ron fell in step with Hermione. "I think that Remus and your parents want us dead." |
Hermione nodded. "If I didn’t know better, I would have to agree. What the hell were we thinking? I can’t feel my legs." |
"You’ll get used to it." Remus snuck up behind them and whispered. |
Both teens jumped, then shook their heads. Right as they were opening the door that led to the first floor, Kreacher stood in front of them. |
"Filthy halfbreed bringing Muggle filth into the House of Black!" But before Kreatcher could attack, Dobby popped in and was on him wailing on his face. |
Dan was torn between amusement watching these two elves roll around on the ground, and anger over being called a filthy Muggle. |
"ENOUGH!" Remus roared as he pulled them apart. |
Dobby looked ready to resist, but eventually subsided. |
Remus rounded on Kreatcher. "You have been warned about your behavior. Shall I inform Lord Black of how much disrespect you have shown a guest in the House of Black?" |
Kreatcher wanted to rail against the werewolf, but he had given allegiance to the current Lord Black. |
"Kreatcher understands." Kreatcher bowed, gave another glare to Dobby and disappeared. |
Ron cleared his throat. "Well that was fun. I’m hungry." |
Hermione rolled her eyes and smacked his arm lightly. "You’re always hungry." |
"Hey! I’m a growing boy!" |
Go get washed up and we will all meet in the kitchen for lunch, then the demonstration begins at one o’clock." |
They made their way to the kitchen and opened the door. Mrs. Weasley was setting a huge plate of sandwiches on the table. She looked up and smiled at her guests. |
"Welcome to..." Mrs Weasley started to stay. |
Emma charged at her and was only stopped by her husband grabbing her arm and brought her body back to his chest. "Calm down sweetheart." he whispered. "Calm down. She’s safe." |
Emma was seething. This woman not only took her child from her, but was going to leave her and her husband to die. |
Hermione stood in front of her parents, while facing Mrs. Weasley. "Good afternoon Mrs. Weasley. As you can see my mother is still quite upset with you. I would suggest you give her a wide berth." |
Mrs. Weasley gave her a small smile and nodded. "I want to offer an unreserved apology. My actions were ill thought out. And as a mother, if someone did what I did to one of my children they would be facing my wand." |
"Time will tell Weasley. And I may not have a wand, but you would be surprised what Muggle weapons can do." Emma said curtly. She removed herself from her husbands embrace, and took a seat at the other end of the table. |
"Well everyone tuck in." Remus said cautiously. |
Everyone sat down to a meal of sandwiches, salad, pumpkin juice, soup, tea and cake. As the meal progressed, more people showed up. A tall bald black man named Shacklebolt. A man who was wearing an eye patch, had a staff, and walked with a limp named Moody. There was a young woman with pink hair that introduced herself... |
"Are you related to Andromeda and Ted?" Dan asked. |
"My parents. How do you know them? I haven’t been home in a while, and I’m sure mum is having a fit." Tonks took a sip of her tea. |
"Your mother is going to be my magical guardian, and sponsor me for the House of Black." |
Aside from the Grangers and Lupin, everyone froze. |
The political ramifications of a Muggleborn being sponsored by not just an Ancient and Noble House, but the House of Black...there would be an uproar. Unfortunately, Mrs. Weasley spoke first. |
"Hermione dear. I don’t think that’s wise. Professor Dumbledore is your magical guardian. There isn’t a need for a different one." |
Emma dropped her spoon into her soup loudly. Hermione and Dan both put a hand on her arm to stop her from standing. Dan gave a slight shake his head at both women. And turned his head to Mrs Weasley. |
"Tell me Madame. Were you aware that your son, Harry, and Hermione were attacked by a troll in their first year? And not one teacher was in sight. They had to defend themselves." |
The others at the table had their mouths wide open. |
"Mr. Granger I..." |
"Mrs. Weasley. Were you aware that your esteemed Headmaster sent an eleven year old boy home after he had killed someone? He was never given what you call mind healing." |
"Who was killed?" Tonks asked. |
Dan looked to Hermione, and she answered "Professor Quirrell." |
"But..." Mrs. Weasley tried to interrupt. |
"Mrs. Weasley. In my daughter’s second year she was petrified by a huge fucking snake!" Dan stood from his chair and leaned over the table." All of the Aurors in the room, were sitting dumbstruck. |
"What are you talking about?" Tonks asked again. |
Dan’s eyes bored into Molly. "Oh you didn’t know? Children were being petrified by a...?" Dan turned to Hermione. |
"A Basilisk." Hermione said around her bite of spice cake. |
"Thank you Hermione." Dan turned back to Molly. "A Basilisk. Where were the professors then hmm? It took my daughter to find the information. Then your son and Harry Potter went after it." |
"They killed it?" Moody asked. Clearly shocked. |
"Harry did." Ron said around his third turkey sandwich. "With the sword of Gryffindor." As he started to choke on his sandwich, Remus smacked him in the back and poured him a glass of water. |
"Don’t talk with your mouth full Ron." Remus admonished. |
Dan continued. "Killed a Basilisk. And what happened? He was sent back to the Muggle world with no help whatsoever to deal with his mental trauma." |
"In her third year, my THIRTEEN year old daughter was given a magical artifact that let her travel through time for the sole purpose of taking more classes!" |
Hermione blushed into her tea. |
"Not only that." Dan turned to Remus. "No offense Remus." |
