A random, short, silly fic. Got the idea when Pace is the Trick said she thinks that Aro has read the Harry Potter books. I agreed and thought that if anyone would be the big Potter fan, it would be Alec. A fic is born!

Disclaimer: Characters not mine. They belong to smeyer. And Harry Potter of course is JK Rowling.


"So we are agreed then brothers" the papery soft voice spoke from the centre throne. "This breed of newborns are bringing far too much attention"

"As you see fit, Aro. If I am no longer needed, I shall return to my chambers" answers Marcus, the most he was probably spoken in generations. He floats from the room silently as Caius speaks.

"I see no need for Jane. Alec's gift will suffice. Felix, Demetri and Afton also."

This time the stern voice is replaced with a soft smile. "You know you can't take it, Alec...what would people think if they saw you waving that about on the battlefield? You can have it back as soon as you return."

"Of course, Master...you won't let Jane break it though, while I am gone?" he adds hopefully as he looks into Aro's face.

"Of course not"

Alec smiles and turns to follow Afton, Felix and Demetri out of the book filled room.

After the large double doors are closed and some minutes have past Aro turns to Renata "I do worry about that boy, sometimes..."
