Chapter 1
Longbottom Estates
Summer Eight Years later...
Lily smiled, as she watched three rambunctious ten going on 11 year olds running around under Nippy, as well as hers and Augusta's eyes.
Beside them and romping around on his day off researching in dog form was Sirius Black, as Remus and James were in the immense "Longbottom library". When in actuality since Sirius was better at distracting the boys, they as well as Nippy were setting up for a party.
It was after all the day before the twins' birthday and two days after Neville's. Since all three had at the age of six refused to have parties without the others. It has been a tradition to pick one of the days between them to hold it.
And it helped that in the end why have two when one works just as well...
So as they played with Padfoot, Lily began to think about the people in her life and all that has happened. Sirius Black...Godfather to Harry, Uncle to Alex, and within two months of coming into his life. An unofficial uncle to Neville... in fact Augusta was thankful that because of his natural exuberance, along with the Potter twins energy had brought Neville out of his shyness for the most part.
He was still nervous around people he did not know. But he was willing to talk more once addressed and once he had done so. He would not be quiet and would always approach if he knew you were a friend. He was the one who never forgot a name or a place unlike her boys.
Her boys...
Harry and Alex, given time a year to adjust to one another. By the time they were five, the brothers were as thick as thieves. Even to the point that along with Neville, the three of them were fast following in the footsteps of Moony, Padfoot and Prongs.
Neville was the Moony of the group. Calm and quiet and mindful of his surroundings much like the shifter, it was he who helped gather what they needed among the gardens to prank each other. And of curse James and their Uncles...
Alex was more like Padfoot. He would come up with ideas and react to those who crossed him or his brothers with something other then kindness, but being tempered a bit by Neville and Harry. He was a hyper and happy young boy.
And last but certainly not least, despite having more of his mother's calm personality, Harry had much to her irritation inherited his father's warped sense of humor. Most of the pranks, the three came up with?
Were his ideas...
Oh well, who cares. She would not trade him or Alex for anyone in the world. She loved them both to much too ever let anyone try to take them away from her again. After the incident that had happened at the Hollow. They had appeared without Alex at the request of papers to reassure that they and their son was all right.
It was then that they had announced that they were with their sons Harry and Alex both in safety. That they would not say where and that they were with good wizard friends under protection that was absolute.
Accepting of it, they still got their story as Albus had come at that moment to find out where. His concern for their safety was evident, that Lily had to help her husband and Remus restrain Sirius who had decked him hard. Crashing to the ground, before he could even attempt to read their minds, to find out where it had started a whole new scandal.
One that to this day troubled Albus because of the sheer force Sirius had hit him with.
Remus had calmly in that gentle nature of his had helped the elderly man up, and said nothing. The calm one of the Marauders, the shifter was also the teacher and helped the boys learn basic spells and get a head start on training once all three started exhibiting magic.
One was never too young to learn control and in Harry's case it was best that he did. The Pensieve memories had helped them to understand, along with books. Because of the Horcrux, Voldemort had literally transferred some of his skills and abilities into Harry. At first it was only a theory, but it became official when at the age of 8 a snake had slithered in and almost bit Augusta.
Harry without realizing had approached and started speaking Parceltongue.
This was something that had freaked everyone out and for a while had made the young boy think his family had hated him. But they had shown later with Remus's aide and advice, that Harry was innocent and did not know what he was doing. It was not the soul of that Vile monster trying to take over Harry.
A smile at the party that they had the night to cheer up her oldest son, she got lost in more memories for which she savored with all her heart.
That moment though was when James and Remus had arrived at the moment with Nippy. At the sight of the two men, the three boys and dog looked at one another with impishness. Moments later a free for all as another Uncle and father was dragged into the impromptu wrestling match with the youngsters.
So it went on, Nippy shaking her head as she had bullied and harassed the other two men into hurrying with what must be done.
For the elf had been busy with the baking and knowing the stall tactics of Master James at times. Well, she could get vexed quite easily. It seems James had a talent to annoy the house elf with his procrastination. And Lily would never forget the first time, when he was running late for a meal.
When he attempted to get something out of the kitchens, later that night he got bounced out like a rubber ball by the elf who was insulted. "Yous stay out! Yous want food! Yous come on time!"
Nippy was a stickler for punctuality and James since he had come to stay with the Longbottoms had made it his ambition to loosen up the house elf on it. Needless to say after eight years, he had gotten nowhere. Nippy was more stubborn then he was. Much to Lily's amusement as well as Remus and Augusta, for even Sirius had tried to help and realized the futility.
But like he pursued her even though she though him a right big git... James wasn't going to give up.
Deciding to save those she adored, Lily spoke loud and clear. "James darling, I do believe there are three certain boys whose birthdays need to be celebrated. Wouldn't want all that food to go to waste that nippy prepared..."
Four blurs of various colors and height flew by the red headed woman as she knew they would. Sirius never one to turn down food period had in his nature given his appetite to the twins and Neville. Nippy was pleased as punch for the appetites of Sirius along with three growing boys had made her a busy elf over the years.
As noises clamored around in the distant dining room, Remus offered his arm to old Augusta as James did the same with Lily.
"Happy dear Lily blossom?"
"Yes..."
Going into the room, all was peaceful as all her boys enjoyed themselves in wishing the Twins and Neville a happy eleventh birthday.
On the horizon and approaching distantly, was an owl, with three simple envelops...
Each one baring the seal of Hogwarts
