AN-this is my rewrite of siblings by choice. I've changed a lot but, i like it. Please forgive my obvious mistakes as i don't have a beta reader.
Please enjoy, all reviews welcome.
In order to protect the truth of Arthur Penndragon, the true king of Camelot and his family, the lie most muggles know was created.
The truth is that young Arthur with Excalibur at hand was very boastful for a short time after he drew the sword from the stone, as such
a traveling witch Greyya took the opportunity and challenged him to a sword fight for all his land as king. Over confident he lost badly.
Yet, young Greyya took pity upon Arthur and promised that if he proved himself a honorable leader she would stay silent and return the land.
neither expected that they would fall in love and give birth to twins, one boy and one girl. As known during the time the boy was heir to the throne
but, so was the girl. To protect the girl, her and Greyya went into hiding. Sadly the separation killed valiant Arthur and greyya years later.
To protect the girl and her future children from falling prey to the same fate as Camelot as it fell into disarray, Merlin wove the tale of legend to protect the
surviving family. Over time the family changed their name to protect them from past enemies. The now last surviving member of this family is 13 year old
witch, who's namesake is the very young witch who challenged Arthur that day, Greyya Penndragon. Now, the penndragon line have reappeared and have a tradition of marrying for love no matter the race or the species and is one of the most varied lines known.
Greyya Penndragon, half human, half amur nundu and full pure-blooded witch. Lives more or less alone in her family's huge
mansion on a hidden island just a few miles from wales and hidden by extensive magical wards. A large luxurious yet, traditional house, Greyya was raised by three house elves. Finn, Parsley and Marzipan. Raised from a tender age when her parents were victims of Voldemort's rise and fall to power. Unknown by many her godparents were Lily Evans and Severus snape.
In return her parents, Kendra and Lance Penndragen were the original godparents for their son, Serpens Sima Snape later known
as Harry James Potter, the boy who lived.
An old arthurian legand depicts a verse that prohpasises the return of camelot, it goes like this;
When the king dies and his queen will fall,
their child will grow alone,
until the age where fate intervenes,
the chosen one and young girl,
shall be siblings by choice,
then with sword in hand,
they will rise up,
against their foe,
and Camelot will thrive once more.
This is their story.
Greyya Penndragon or Grey as she preferred to be known, was sat in her study waiting for her guest to arrive. If anyone looked in they would be shocke to find that the head of the house hold was a mere 13 year old girl with long black hair and large yellow eyes. Her eyes were her most distingushing feature when you could see them behind her dark curtain of hair. They looked almost feline and were the colour of molten amber. She sat calmly her eyes fixed upon the fire. A pop was heard echoing through the quite room, grey turned to face the small house-elf between two to three feet tall, with spindly arms and legs and over-sized head and eyes. He spoke in a high pitch voice and looked an awful like a butler in black trousers and white shirt, his shirt had his name embrodered
on the front. Finn.
"Miss Grey be wanting to see nows? He's be waiting in the hall, does Miss grey be wanting finn to get anything?' Finn asked polietly. Grey turned and nodded before elaborating. "Yes, thank you Finn. Please show Snape to the study and could you bring some refreshments, if thats not too much trouble?' She inquired, standing and moving over to an
old armchair. "Oh, noes Miss Grey, it no trouble, none at all. And Finn be bringing 's for yous ' Finn told her before popping out with a snap of his fingers.
A few moments later Professor Severus Tobias Snape, potions master of hogwarts billowed into the room, worry ethched onto his face. Grey gestured for him to sit.
'Hello Sev, Lets get down to business. Why did you send a letter practically begging to talk to me at god-knows-when this morning? Has it anything to do with the will reading?' Grey asked, getting straight down to the point. Snape nodded and passed a peice of parchment over for her to read.
The Last Will and Testament Of Lily Potter nee Evans and James Potter Closed reading.
To my beloved Severus Tobias Snape I leave the knowledge that the boy known as Harry James Potter Is in fact our son. Serpens Sima Snape. I also

Grey stopped reading when Finn popped back into the room holding a tea tray. 'Miss Grey, here be yous teas and refreshmenst. Can Finn be getting yous
anything else?' Finn said floating the tray over the the coffee table. 'No, thankyou Finn but, please tell Parsly and Marzipan to come here as well.' grey informed him before focusing her attention on severus snape.
'So sev, Congratulations your the real farther of the boy who lived and the very boy you've hated with a passion. What are you going to do now?' She asked him gently. Severus shook his head. 'That's just it , I don't know I mean I want to have that last connection to lily but, well. he hates me.' Snape moaned, hanging his head.
Before grey could reply three identical pops were heard and three house elves were waiting patiently. next to finn was a slightly taller house elf with a green shirt and brown trousers, he wore gardeners gloves and had grass stains on his knees. Parsly was sewn into his shirt. The other elf was female and wore a pale yellow dress with a white apron and had flour down her front. Her name was Marzipan. Grey smiled at the elves.
'Thank you for coming so quickly and I'm sorry to have interrupted your duties but, it seems that I require some assistance. Would that be alright?
You see it's very important and their aren't any others who i trust enough do this.' grey told them, truth evident in her tone. They elves smiles
widened and their chest puffed out honored to be trusted with such an important task. 'We's being very honored to be helping yous Miss Grey.
What is you be needing us to do?' Marzipan asked, her voice slightly softer than Finns. 'Well, Finn? I need you to go the ministry and could you
get a paternity potion, adoption papers and a file on Harry Potter please. make sure you aren't seen.' Finn nodded and popped out a determined look in his
small face. Grey turned to Marzipan.'Marzi? I need you to clean out two rooms in the east wing, one for and another for a boy. he's a Gryffindor
so please decorate accordingly. Also know that both will be staying for if it's not too much trouble can you get some calming droughts ?'
The little elf nodded and popped away. Grey then turned too Parsley, the tallest of the three elves.'Parsley? Please fetch my wand and my cloak then grab your shoes and jacket, i need your help so can you come with me?' the elf nodded and popped away proud to be asked to fetch a witches wand.
'Really grey? what are you planning? I...' Snape's rant was interrupted by the appearance of Parsley and Finn. 'Thank you Finn, well done. I couldn't have done this without you. please assist marzipan. Thank you again old friend' Grey thanked, Finn's eyes shone with pride as he popped away. Grey passed the file to snape and handed him the potion. ' You were given guardianship, he's your son. You need to take responsibility. Plus I don't trust Dumbledore.
Now read that file and Oh! disillusion yourself too. I won't be gone long.' Grey left snape gobsmacked as she donned her black traveling cloak.
' Parsley thank you. Can you take me to Number 4 privet drive?' Parsley nodded before aparating both of them away before snape could protest.
he mumbled about annoying girls and elves before taking a drought and disillusioning himself as he began to read 'Harry's' file.
As it was late at night no one noticed a young girl and a strange elf like creature walk up the drive to number 4. Just before grey knocked she wove a glamor so any muggles would believe her to be a social services employe around 20 with blue eyes and blonde hair. Parsly now looked like a 30 something man with greying hair. Grey knocked on the door.
She heard footsteps before a skinny boy with messy black hair and emerald greens eyes opened the door. Grey smiled gently at him. 'hello, you must be Harry. I would like to see you guardians, if that's all right?' She asked kindly. From the door harry ran inside and talking could be heard and when he returned he let them in.
'My aunt and uncle are in the living room. Miss?' He said quietly.
Grey nodded. 'Brown, and this is Jones. Now can you show us inside?' harry nodded and led the way through the house to the living room.
Sitting on the sofa were two people, the woman was a thin, blonde-haired with pale eyes. The man next to her however was a big, beefy man with a large purple face. He had thick, dark hair, a bushy black mustache and small, blue mean eyes. Both regarded the strangers with suspicions.
' hello, I'm from social services. I've been sent because a new relative to harry has been found and gaurdinship has been passed to him. I'm here to collect him.' grey informed them bluntly. Harry's face lit up.
the Dursleys however looked like they'd swallowed a lemon. petunia spoke first. 'You can't take him Dumbledore said we...' grey interrupted her tirade.
'I don't care what Dumbledore said. Obliviate.' A beam of light shot from her wand and covered the dursleys there eyes glazed over. then she cast stupefy and the Dursley's fainted. Grey turned to Harry.
'Please show us where your things are and we need to hurry.' harry didn't mess around he ran upstairs. grey then turned to the disguised parsly.
Please locate his wand and possessions and wrong them to the manor' Parsley nodded and apparated upstairs.
Harry came running back down with a snowy white owl in a cage with a lock on. strange. Grey went over to harry.
'Harry please don't be alarmed. I'm taking you somewhere safe and it's better if you don't know how you got there okay?' Harry nodded and with that grey shot a well aimed stupefy before cathing the boy and his owls cage.
'Marzipan!' Grey called, and within a second the petite elf appeared. 'Please take him to the room you prepared and feed his owl. Thank you.'
With that the little elf aparated harry potter away. Parsley reappered and told grey he had gathered harry's possesions. with that they apparated away into the night.
