Authors note: Hello, this is my first fan fiction! I have read many but never actually written one before. I hope you enjoy it. Please review. I would like to explain a little about why I wrote this. To be truthful I do not disserve full credit for this story. This story was written with a lot of help from my friends Nicky, Andres, Vicky, Jorge and Gabi. Each of my OC character is based on one of them well the ones you have here anyway. Now I would like some background story on my characters.
Liz: Liz is partially based on me. She is eight years old at this time and is the twin sister of Gabriella. She is Sirius' and Nicky's daughter.
Arneb: He is the ten year old son of Sirius and Nicky. He is the best friend of Harry who grew up with him. Arneb is a metamorphmagus just like his mother but almost always wears shoulder length black hair and blue eyes. He is based on my friend Andres
Gabriella: Partially based on Gabi. She is eight years old at this time and is the twin sister of Liz. She is Sirius' and Nicky's daughter
Nicky: She is Sirius' wife. She is 31 years old just as Sirius. She is also a metamorphmagus. She is an auror, one of the best.
Victoire: She is 29 years old. She is a werewolf who was bitten by Greyback at the age of eight, married to Remus since five years ago. She is an activist in favor for better werewolf rights.

At the sound of a high- pitched scream Sirius Black woke up. Noticing that it was already light outside Sirius got up from bed, got dressed and made his way downstairs. As he entered the living room, he saw Nicky trying to hold up Liz and Gabriella, his eight year old twins, from opening their Christmas presents.
"Pretty, pretty please mommy, let me open my presents now"- Gabriella was pleading with her mother.
"Sorry, honey, but we have to wait for your brother and Harry to wake up."- Nicky responded ignoring the 'puppy look' on her daughter's face.
"But mom, they won't get up for at least another hour. You know they both sleep like rocks."- Liz tried to explain to her mother as though this was the most obvious thing in the world.
"Then why don't we do something about that?"- Sirius asked grinning from the doorway.
"What are you planning Sirius Orion Black?"- Nicky said in a stern voice but ruining the effect by smiling at her husband.
"Me? I am not planning anything. I would never do such a thing"- Sirius responded in the same voice as a child who has just been cut in the middle of doing something wrong. But never less grinning from ear to ear as he walked over to his wife and giving her a kiss. - "Merry Christmas"- He told her and his daughters.
"Merry Christmas dad."-The girls responded- "So what are you planning?"
"Oh well come here and I'll let you in into my ultimately secret plan"- Sirius said laughing.
Ten minutes later the three of them, Sirius, Liz and Gabriella were to be seen walking up the stairs with their hands full of snowballs. With a wave of his wand, Sirius opened the door to the boys' dormitory.
"At the count of three ok?"- Sirius asked the girls. When they noted Sirius started counting. - "One. Two. Three!"- At the end of the word three the boys were already covered in snow from head to foot.
"Ahh!"- Harry screamed at the top of his voice.
"What was that for?"- Arneb asked in a voice that left no doubt that he was furious with his dad and sisters.
"It's Christmas, nine in the morning and you are still in bed! Get up!"- Gabriella informed them in an inpatient voice.
"Alright, alright, I'm up"- Harry said grinning.
"Yeah, me too"- Arneb said also grinning- "But please could you get out so we can change?"
After this both girls and Sirius left the room and made their way back to the living room. Sirius sat in an armchair while Nicky called Xia, their house-elf, over to make breakfast. All of a sudden Sirius heard as trough elephants where making their way down the stairs, but in reality it was just Harry and Arneb.
"What do you want for breakfast?"- Nicky asked Sirius, Arneb and Harry.
"Nothing, we are not hungry"- Arneb answered at once.
"Can we open our presents?"- Harry asked as he slowly made his way over to the Christmas tree.
"Sure. Why not?"- Nicky said with a laugh.
Sirius saw four blurry figures running over to the tree.
"Wow!"- Both Harry and Arneb exclaimed at the same time. They had just opened the present holding their new Nimbus 950. - "Thank you, thanks you so much!"- They both exclaimed and hugged both Nicky and Sirius.
"Aww, he's so cute and adorable"- Gabriella exclaimed petting her new pink pigmy puff.
"Yes! Thanks, I have wanted this book for an eternity"- Liz said excitedly.
Nicky and Sirius were laughing at their children's reactions. They had pictured it exactly how it had been.
"Now, darling for your present"- Sirius said handling Nicky a large box
Nicky eagerly opened it, only to find that it was empty. - "Hey, there's nothing here"- She said accusingly.
"I know"- Sirius said grinning and with a kiss gave her a small box.
"It's beautiful". - She exclaimed putting on her color changing diamond necklace.
"Hey, where's mine?"- Sirius asked noticing that he was the only one without a gift.
"Your gift will be here in about fifteen minutes, so you better get dressed nicely."
"Why? What is it?"
"You'll see."- Nicky replied grinning
Fifteen minutes later Sirius was dressed nicely and waiting anxiously for his present. Suddenly the doorbell rang. Sirius eagerly opened the front door to see two hooded figures in front of him.
"Hello, who are you?"- He asked the figures
"We are the grim reapers"- the figure said in a voice Sirius would recognize anywhere.
"M...Moony?"- Sirius asked his voice shacking-"Moony!"
Remus lowered his hood and gave Sirius a big hug. - "Long time no see, padfoot"
"Hi Victoire"- Sirius said addressing the woman beside Remus
"Hi Sirius"- Victoire responded
"What on earth are you doing here?"- Sirius asked
"I'm just visiting, and I would like to ask you if I could stay over for a while, until we find a house?"- Remus responded
"Yes, of course, wait. YOU'RE STAYING?"- Sirius asked
"Yeah we decided to stop traveling for a while."- Victoire responded smiling.
"Uncle Moony, Aunt Vicky"- Came four surprised yells from the Christmas tree. Harry, Arneb, Liz and Gabriella went over to hug their aunt and uncle.
"Hi, wow you've grown since the last time I've seen you"- Remus said happy that he was home again. In the last couple of years he and Victoire had lived in France, Spain, Egypt and Germany. They hadn't had much time to visit. Last time was over two years ago.
"Merry Christmas guys"- Victoire said also hugging each one of the kids.
"Hey Vicky, hey Remus, nice to see you again"- Nicky told also giving her sister and brother in law a hug.
"Hey, Moony it's Christmas."- Harry said pointedly
"Oh yes it appears so"- Remus responded with a laugh.
"And..,"- Gabriella said with a smile on her face. Remus and Victoire always had the best gifts. Even though both Remus and Victoire where both werewolves and couldn't find work almost nowhere, each of them had inherited a small fortune from their parents.
"Well, here are you're presents"- Remus said taking four very small thing from his bag.
"No ways are you bringing neither a dragon nor a unicorn into this house"- Nicky said at once.
"Relax, Nicky, the dragon doesn't grow more than two feet long, its fire is cold and it doesn't fly more than four feet up into the air. The unicorn is a special kind that stays lower than two feet also and can stand to be around males"- Remus quickly explained, then- "Here's the deal guys, the dragon, dragon, lynx and phoenix decide each of their owners, you don't get to pick ok?"
"Yes"- The four of them answered at once.
"Ok, first the lynx"- Remus said picking up the smallest of the creatures; it was a baby female lynx with the most beautiful grey fur and a tuff of black hair on the tip of its ear. Immediately the lynx walked over to Liz and settled on her lap.
"Aww, thanks so much, I'll name her Limary"- Liz said.
"You're welcome"- Remus responded- "Ok, now for the phoenix"- the beautiful and magnificent red and gold bird no bigger than a Chihuahua immediately went over to Harry's shoulder.
"Wow, a phoenix awesome, thanks"- Harry said, his voice full of astonishment.
"That is very special Harry; I didn't know if she would really choose someone, what would you name her?"- Remus asked
"I think I'll name her Elsmere. Do you like that name?"- He asked the phoenix. The phoenix gave a soft musical note that everyone took as if to mean 'yes'.
"Ok, now for the dragon."- Remus said hiding a laugh. A beautiful blue dragon with silver claws made its way over to Arneb.
"Yes!"- Arneb said triumphantly- "Thank you so much, I'll name him Alterf, do you like it?"- The dragon gave a low roar which everyone took to mean yes.
"And finally, but not least the unicorn."- The golden small unicorn with its three inch horn made its way over to Gabriella's side.
"You're so pretty, I'll name you Paulina"- Gabriella informed everyone stocking he new unicorn, ever since she had been five, she had always wanted a unicorn.
"Wow, Vicky, where did you get them?"- Nicky asked her sister
"Well one of the good things you get from traveling a lot is you see new and interesting things. The unicorn comes from Spain, very hard to get and even harder to get one to trust you enough to become yours as is the case with each one of this animals. We weren't a hundred percent sure that they would pick someone you see. The dragon is from Romania, it is one of the few kinds of dragon that are legal in Britain. The lynx is from France and of course the phoenix if from Egypt."- Victoire responded.
"Thank you both you so much!"- All four kids told Vicky and Remus at once.
"Hey, where are dad and uncle Moony?"- Liz asked looking around.
"Oh. Oh, that can't be good."- Nicky said trying to hide a smile- "they are definitely planning something."
What they where planning became apparent as they walked into the kitchen. As soon as they entered all kids plus Nicky and Victoire bombarded with water balloons filled with water that as soon as it made contact with each of their skin, their skin started changing into a different color.
"Hey, this color is definitely not pretty."- Harry said when he looked t himself and noticed that his skin was a very shocking pink.
"I am the amazing Hulk"- Arneb whose skin had turned green said imitating the guy from the movie they had seen the other day on the T.V.
"It's hilarious, Remus our best idea in a very long time"- Sirius said rolling with laughter.
"I don't like mine"- Gabriella, who was completely red exclaimed
"Mine's freaky"- Liz said. She was a pale blue color.
"Sorry honey but it won't wear off till after sundown"- Sirius informed his kids, his wife and his sister in law who where orange and yellow respectably.
"Sorry, honey, couldn't resist"- Remus said to his wife apologetically.
"Its ok, I forgive you"- Victoire responded giving her husband a kiss. Remus and Victoire had been married for five years now. They made such a good couple, probably, because they were so similar to each other, but at the same time had their differences. In what one of them wasn't good at, the other exited. Remus and Victoire were both werewolves. Chance had it that they had been bitten by the same werewolf when they where kids. Victoire had been bitten at the age of eight, she was now twenty nine, and Remus when he was no older than six.
"Can I go play with my unicorn?"- Gabriella asked all of a sudden.
"Can I go play with my lynx?"- Liz asked
Although Gabriella and Liz where twins, they where nothing alike. Gabriella had green eyes which she had inherited from her grandmother from mother's side of the family. Liz had dark brown hair and the same blue-gray eyes as her dad. Their full names where Elizabeth, who preferred to be known as Liz, Veronique Black and Gabriella Sofia Black. They were both small in size but really intelligent. Not only in appearance were they opposites but also in their personalities. Gabriella was absolutely in love with the color pink, while Liz could not stand that color, she preferred blue. Gabriella wasn't a big fan of either Quidditch or books, while Liz absolutely adored both. Even with all their differences they were the closest sisters you could find.
"Sure, you can both go out and play."- Nicky told he girls.
The rest of the day passed with them playing a game of Quidditch, Arneb and Harry against Remus and Sirius. The kids won because although Sirius was a great player Remus was absolutely dreadful. Each one played with their new companions and friends for a couple of hours.
