Chapter 1: McGonagall is Strange
"Run, run, run as fast as you can. You can't catch me I'm the Gingerbread Man," the young boy read as his siblings sat round him.
They had been placed in a room on the top most floor of Grimmuald Place while their parents were at an Order meeting.
"Yawn, yawn, yawn as wide as can be because Camp's voice makes me sleepy," his sister teased. Her twin laughed as they both stood and unlocked the door.
"Caty, Ian come back here! Where do you think you're going!?" the elder sister hissed.
"We are going to get some answers and cause trouble. Five galleons say we can get the Weasley and Potter children in trouble with Miss Molly," the boy grinned.
"You're on…but it's your heads if you get caught I'm supposed to be in charge," the boy stated closing his book.
"Whatever," the twins said rolling their eyes as they transformed into two kittens and raced out of the room.
The other three followed and stopped at the stairs as they looked down on the teenagers trying to listen in on the order meeting.
"I can't hear anything," Ron complained.
"Someone must be standing on it or something," Fred stated.
"I still can't believe we're doing this," Hermione shook her head.
"Lighten up will ya?" George snapped.
"I'm going to my room," Hermione said annoyed as she stepped back and the loudest yowling you ever heard made the teens jump in fright.
Under Hermione's foot laid the prettiest little black kitten anyone had ever seen. It was howling as though it was knocking on death's door and the grey kitten by it was hopping around hissing and swiping it's claws at all the children.
George heard footsteps and quickly pulled up the extendable ears just as Minerva and Molly rushed through the kitchen door.
"What on earth is going on!?" Molly snapped looking at the children that were jumping around on the landing.
"This cat is insane!"
"Hermione's killed the other."
"I didn't mean to!"
"Bloody Hell!" were just some of the responses given.
"What kittens?" Molly asked.
"These!" the twins shouted as the caught the two kittens and held them up.
Minerva gasped and raced up the stairs snatching the kittens from the boys and throwing them a glare that would have surely killed them if looks could in fact kill.
"Oh my poor babies. Did the mean teenagers hurt you? Shush, shush now mama will make it better come on," Minerva cooed softly as she headed back down stairs and into the kitchen.
"Honestly don't you have anything better to do than badger baby animals?" Molly huffed in annoyance and followed the professor.
"Okay that was odd to say the least," Harry stated.
"I think McGonagall's finally lost it. Why else would she call herself their mother," Ron blinked.
"She is a cat animagus. Maybe she has an attachment to the animal?" Ginny suggested.
It was then they heard giggling from over head. The group looked up and saw three children pull away from the banister and into the dark.
"You see that?" Harry asked.
The others nodded and followed him as they ran up the stairs. They reached the fourth floor landing and found all the doors locked but one. Inside were two full size beds and a small child's size cot. A few toys and books were strewn here and there.
"Okay something is definitely going on here. What's with all this little kids' stuff?" Ron asked looking around.
"I don't know…you think they belong to someone downstairs?" Hermione suggested as she picked up a book titled Mr. Brown can Moo, can You?
"This is a muggle book," she stated.
"Well they obviously aren't here…and that bat is creeping me out. We better go," Harry suggested as they faintly heard Molly call for dinner.
"Yeah maybe we'll see 'em later," Fred nodded.
As soon as the door shut the bat flew onto the smallest bad and transformed into the youngest sister.
"Too close brudder," she said shaking her head.
"Too close is right Sheena," the boy stated as he and the other girl materialized from nowhere.
"I suggest next time we leave the cats to the lions," the elder girl said snobbishly.
"I most certainly agree…but dang it I owe them five galleons now," the boy groaned kicked his bed and then swearing loudly as he cradled his sore foot. The two girls laughed at his predicament.
"I can't believe Hermione stepped on her. Is she all right?" Molly asked after dinner. She, Minerva, Albus, Remus, Alastor, and Sirius were having coffee in the kitchen.
Minerva was holding the black kitten as one would a baby as she rocked it gently and petted it softly. The grey kitten was perched on Albus' shoulder playing with his flowing white hair as though it were string.
"She'll be fine. It's just her paw," Albus stated, "I suspect the two were trying to get by unnoticed and Hermione accidentally back up on her."
"All the same Albus I want to take her to the doctor," Minerva stated, "I think she has a fever."
"From getting stepped on?" Sirius asked.
"No they've both been fighting a cold for a few days now," Albus sighed as he took the grey kitten off his shoulder. "He feels rather warm as well."
"You want me to tuck the others in and you can take them before it gets too late?" Molly suggested.
"That would be a great help thank you Molly," Minerva nodded as she took both kittens in her arms and flooed to St. Mungo's.
"You know they'll think she's crazy if she calls herself mama in front of the kids again," Remus stated.
"Seeing the twins dangling her babies over the stairs I don't think she cared a bit," Alastor stated as the two left the house.
