Author Notes:
Hello readers, and welcome to Twins of destiny, the Sorcerers stone! This is my first time writing something like this so please bear with me!
Just to make sure there are no confusions, the 'twins' are not actual twins. It is used in a mostly metaphoric way; The story is going to mostly be written in the characters P.O.V, so 'twins' are how they view each other because tecinally speaking, they were born at the same day and they think each other as a real family to the point they cast off the title of 'cousin' and started calling each other sister/brother/twin
Reviews are welcome!

Prologue: The Twins who Lived
An old man appeared from thin air just as the clock struck midnight. He was tall thin, and very old judging by his white beard and hair. He was wearing long robes, and a brown cloak that swept the ground, and had bright blue eyes that once twinkled with kindness and mischief were now filled with sadness. This mysterious man's name was Albus Dumbledore.
Walking down the streets toward his destination, he saw a cat looking at him over a fence, shaking his head, he walked up towards the cat.
"Fancy seeing you here Professor McGonagall," he told the cat, before it jumped off the fence, and turned into a very stern middle-aged women also wearing long robes and a brown cloak.
"How do you always recognize me?" she asked, "When not even the most observant person I know couldn't?"
"Just a feeling I guess," Dumbledore said before the two walked down the road. "Why are you here when you could have been cele...?"
"I've been looking for you all day, and Hagrid told me I'd find you here. And from the looks of it, he was correct. " Professor McGonagall answered before Albus could finish. "I came to ask about the Rumors I've heard about the Dark Lord. About why he's gone? And What actually stopped him?"
The look on Dumbledore's face turned sorrowful as he bowed his head. "I'm afraid so... last night Voldemort turned up in Godric's Hollow where both the Nova's and the Potters were... And... And... Killed them all..."
Professor McGonagall gasped as the truth was told. "Lilly... Luna... James... Severus... Oh Albus please tell me this is a nightmare... I don't want to believe it..."
Albus placed a comforting hand on her shoulder as the usually stern professor tried to prevent tears from falling. "I wish it was... Even I don't wish to believe it..."
"So...So..." Professor McGonagall's started to tremble, but continued: "So it's all true then? Voldemort also tried to kill their children, they're children who just happened to be born on the same day and time: Harry Potter, and Willow Nova? And how he failed, and due to it, Voldemort's power somehow broke-and that's why he's gone?"
Dumbledore nodded.
"H-How?" Professor McGonagall asked "After all the people he's killed, he couldn't kill 2 children? Even when it was the Avada Kedavra curse? How did they even survive?"
Dumbledore just shrugged. "I believe it had something to do with their mother's, but we could only guess now."
Tears started streaming down Professor McGonagall's face as they arrived at Number 4 Privet Street. Albus gave her a handkerchief to dry her tears as he took out a watch and checked the time. "Hagrid is late."
"Why are you here anyway?" McGonagall asked as she managed to calm down a bit. "Of all the places I've never expected you here."
"I'm here to bring Harry, and Willow to his aunt and uncle, I've placed blood wards to protect them from harm." Dumbledore told her.
"Dumbledore-you can't. Petunia hated Luna and Lilly for their magic. She hated Luna especially, since she was adopted, and for her heritage. And they have this son. I've watched them all day. Their son extremely rude, and don't respect his parents at all. This isn't the best choice for them, and if the reason is because of the blood wards, it wouldn't work on Willow, since Luna was..."
"Remember how Lilly and Luna were once found unconscious?" Albus asked, before Professor McGonagall nodded remembering that day like it was yesterday(1) " Luna found a spell in a book on how to make them her and the Evans a real family: votum familias (2). The side effect was that it'll make them exhausted."
"But still... There must be a better place for them..."
"It's the best place," Dumbledore said "They can explain everything when they are older. I've written them a letter."
"I'm not going to win this argument am I?" sighed Professor McGonagall " However do you really think you can explain it all with a letter? The twins will be famous, and every child in our world will know their names."
"I understand, Minerva, but this will be the best place for him," Dumbledore repeated. "I mean, as famous they may be, they can't bear this much fame. They'll be away from all that until they are ready to take it."
McGonagall sighed again. " I can understand about the fame part, but leaving the twins it to Hagrid? Is it really ok?"
"I'd trust him with my life Minerva."
Just as Albus finished saying that, a loud "Boom!" Echoed and a large bike appeared with an huge man. He turned off the engine and got off, and carried 2 bundles in his arms.
"Thanks for helping Hagrid," Dumbledore said.
"No problem," Hagrid answered. "The twins fell asleep while we were flying over Bristol. Of course the house where the Novas and Potter lived in together is totally destroyed."
"I see..." Dumbledore said. "But speaking of which, where did you get that bike from?'
"Borrowed it from Remus" Hagrid said. "Took Sirius to convince him. "
"I...see..." Dumbledore said. "Well then, lets get this over with."
Dumbledore and the others looked into 2 bundles. Baby Harry had untidy jet-black hair and on his forehead was a curious cut, shaped like a bolt of lightening. Willow also had the same cut, only she had long, smooth snowy-white hair, and had bandages covering her left eye.
"Is that scar what I think it is? And why is Willow..?"
"Yes, they'll have that scar forever, and as to Willow; There were 2 death eaters that waited outside for their master, and when Voldemort was killed, they tried to kill them with a fire spell. Luna was the closest to the fire, and it burned her left eye. I managed to get there and put it out just in time,so at least her left eye isn't blind, however, it's going to leave a nasty scar. Anyways, let's get this over with."
Albus then walked over to the front door of number four and placed the bundles down. He then took out a letter and placed it with the bundle.
"Well then, we have no business here now," Dumbledore said. "I have a meeting to attend and then I'll be seeing you tomorrow."
McGonagall dried her tears and gave the twins a kiss on their foreheads. She then turned back into a cat and was gone.
"I'll be returning Remus his bike back," Hagrid told Dumbledore.
Dumbledore nodded before Hagrid disappeared into the night sky. Dumbledore looked at the bundle of blankets that contained Harry Potter and Willow Nova and gave a sad smile. He really wished him all the luck in the world. After a final glance at the two, he disappeared into the night with a whisk of his cloak
A/N:
That's all for now! Hope you liked it!
And Please Review! It'll really help if I know if my process is going along ok!
Notes:
1: The incident will be explained in the future maybe
2: votum familias is a latin translation of the word "Vow of a Family"I know this is not a very good name, but I'm not really good with names.
The spell itself is almost like a blood adoption spell that other fanfictions use. I'm not exactly too sure how it works, but in this case, the caster must first cut out blood from their finger tips along with the person in which the bond is to be formed, and they place the finger tips together. Then the caster utters the chant of votum familas and the ritual forces the caster and bounders blood through each other, mixing the bloods, and at the same time transfering each other a portion of each other's magic before completing the ritual, making them almost like real sisters.
