The Marauders Ride Again

Prologue:

"Albus, something has to be done about those three. The last one just got here and they are driving us all insane!" An elderly witch told the late great Albus Dumbledore.

"They arrived many years before their natural time, what do expect Esmeralda? They are restless, it is only natural." Albus defended the young men chasing each other around the white empty room. "Their lives were cut short and what little time they did have was full of injustices and war torn times. They deserve to be young again, even if it is here."

"If you really feel that way Albus, that they were treated unfairly then maybe something could be done. I am sure the counsel would listen to your plea."

"Do you really think so Esmeralda?"

"Yes, the sooner they leave the better."

Meanwhile in Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry three couples stood mourning their loses.

"Harry, so many people" Hermione said shell shocked as they witnessed the survivors attempt to pick back up their lives. At this point of time that involved gathering the dead and searching for loved ones. The Weasley's had lost two children: Ron and Ginny. Molly sat in between their lifeless body's trying to comprehend what had happened. The rest of her family gathered around her.

"I know, hopefully things will be better soon. Should we go over to them?" Harry was torn, he had just lost the only brother he had. The last time he spoke to Ron they fought. It all seemed silly now. Ron just couldn't get over the fact that after he stormed out Harry and Hermione turned towards each other and two days after their muggle marriage ceremony Ron had come back. He went ballistic and once more stormed out of the tent and left the couple alone. Now he is dead, as was his sister. Ron and Ginny were not the only loved ones lost in the fight, only a few feet down from the Weasley's laid Remus and Tonks. Both died by the others side, leaving a small son alone in the world with only as grieving grandmother left. The pain would fade for Harry and Hermione but would never truly leave.

Bill has never felt so torn in his life, he had just lost his two youngest siblings. He remembered when they were born, how his mother had sobbed over her long awaited daughter. Now she was gone, how would their family ever be the same again? His mother would never recover, she would has less cooking to do and hardly any laundry. There will no longer be nine hands on the special Weasley clock. The burrow would be miserable for everyone. In the back of his mind, behind all the grief and suffering he was so thankful that Fluer had made it out alive. He couldn't have survived this heart break without her, his flower in a time of darkness.

Neville held Luna close as they watched numerous people scurrying here and there. Sorting through the ruble that once had been Hogwarts. He could not believe that the castle that had stood for over a thousand years was now this. He had witnessed the fight, even killed Voldemort's snake. His Gran would never believe him when he told her about this. He had lost so many friends due to the battle but he hadn't lost his Luna. He loves her so much, pulling her even closer as they limped out of the ruble.

Albus and Esmeralda watched as the three couples dealt with the aftermath of the battle.

"They will do Albus."

"But they have all gone through so much tragedy in such a short amount of time."

"Yes, that is why they would be the perfect couples for this project. They will be loving but protective and cautious." Esmeralda said with a smile.

"If you think that this is the best course of action." Albus said stiffly. He knows that the counsel has already decided to use them.

" Oh and Albus you are to be their adviser."

"Oh bugger it."
