"The Dark Lord believes that Lily is having only one baby not two and we would like to keep it that way" Sirius said as the Marauders plus Sirius' sister and James' sister talked about a new plan WITHOUT James, Peter and Lily present.
"What are you saying Sirius that we should kill one of the babies you know we can't do that it would be worse than betraying them to the Dark Lord" Sirius' sister Annie said angrily glaring at her older brother. The two were very similar in many ways.
"Are you bonkers of course that's not what I'm saying I'm saying that we should at least take away one child that way if main plan were to fail we at least one of them would survive" Sirius said sending a glare right back at his sister.
"Sirius, if we really go through with this it would have to be that James and Lily have no idea where the baby is or who it's with" Lauren, James' sister said looking at the other's in the room for she knew how hard it would be on both Lily and James to know that one of their children were out there in the world without them.
"I know Lauren but think as much as it would hurt Lily and James and most of us it is most likely the best plan to keep this child alive" Sirius said looking at the other's sadly.
"What if we were to tell Lily and James the Baby didn't survive through birth that way yes they would feel horrible and so would we for lying to them but we would be able to get the child out of there without anyone trying to find us or ratting us out to the Dark Lord" Annie said a guilty look present on her face.
"That might work but the child would have to go with someone all of us trust so defiantly not Peter" Lauren said tears forming in her eyes at just the thought of lying to James and Lily.
"I say the child should go with Lauren and Annie they can protect it best and give it more love than anyone else I can think of" Remus said speaking for the first time.
"That is right but James and Lily would have to think that something had have happened to the both of you so they wouldn't know it was you that took the baby" Sirius said sadly.
"Your right we might have to fake our own death and then come back when the babies are born to take one. Merlin this is going to kill Lily and James" Annie said leaning into Sirius. Her brother wrapped his arm around her and smiled sadly down at her.
"How will we do that there is only at least one spell that I can recall that will make it look like it was impossible to find bodies and that one would take multiple wizards to complete" Lauren said.
"That is true but it's worth a try right" Remus said he felt horribly guilty for this.
"Well let's do it tomorrow so that you two can see Lily and James before you have to leave" Sirius said just as there was a knock at the door.
"Hey you guys in there" James said through the door. Lauren looked at the other's Sirius nodded and Annie and Lauren vanished from the room in a puff of smoke.
"Yeah, mate we're in here" Remus said opening the door and stepping out with Sirius.
"What are you two up to this time" Lily asked smiling next to James.
"Just talking about our years at Hogwarts" Sirius said laughing.
"Well would you like to see the new ultrasound picture" James asked as the four walked into the living room and sat down.
"Why don't we wait until Annie and Lauren get in here" Remus suggested.
"That's a good idea" Annie said walking in through the now open front door with Lauren.
"Look, we're going to have a little boy and girl" Lily said holding out the picture for the others to see. They could see two little bodies close together.
"Oh I can't wait for them to be born so we can hold them" Annie said happily the misery they were all about to cause forgotten for the moment.
"I know we've been thinking about names for the boy Harry James and for the girl Sophia Rose what do you think" James said smiling.
"I think we should name the boy Harry Sirius Remus yes it is long but I'm going to be his god father and I want him named after me and Remus would be mad if it was only my name" Sirius said pouting Annie laughed.
"Sirius we are not going to name the babies after you out of fear that they will act like you" Lily said giggling at the puppy dog face Sirius was attempting to pull off.
"Hey what about me I'm the one that got you together doesn't that count for anything" Annie asked giving a puppy dog face as well.
"All you did was lock us in a closet for two days plus you said that was an accident" James said.
"Well it was kind of an accident you were only supposed to be locked in the closet for twenty minutes but I kind of forgot which closet I locked you in so I just waited for the spell to wear off" Annie said rubbing the back of her neck she ducked out of the way just in time to avoid James' hand when he tried to playfully smack her head.
"Still you're too much like Sirius so the baby still might end up like the two of you" James said readjusting his glasses.
"Anyway I think those are lovely names" Lauren said smiling at the photo.
"I know I can't believe we're going to have a boy and girl" Lily said smiling down at the photo she was seven months pregnant.
(Next day)
"Ok, let's blow up our flat" Annie said Sirius Remus Lauren and Annie all had their wands pointed at Annie and Lauren's apartment building they whispered the spell and the building erupted into flames.
"Uh did anyone think of getting our stuff out of there" Lauren asked as they walked away. They looked at each eyes wide.
"We are so not smart" Annie grumbled as they reached the ministry entrance.
"Well better start acting like your panicked we'll see you when the babies are born" Lauren said tears forming.
Sirius pulled Annie out of range from the other two.
"Everything we is going to be okay you two will go to America and change you last names to Evans its common enough as to not arouse suspicion and the babies last name will be Evans Remus and I will take care of the birth certificate then come back when the twins are born take one then go back to America and when the war is over Remus and I will come find you and we will tell the truth and it will all be O.K. again I promise" Sirius said going over the plan Annie flung herself at him and hugged him tight.
"I know it will all be O.K. but it's so hard to believe that everything will be O.K." Annie said quietly.
"Well don't worry it will be. Don't ever forget that I love you Annie" Sirius said holding her tightly.
"I love you too Sirius. We better get back before they start to worry" Annie mumbled pulling back she wiped the tears from her as the duo walked back over Annie hugged Remus while Lauren hugged Sirius.
"Well, tell Lily and James that we love them and be careful we love you goodbye" Lauren said grabbing Annie's hand the two disappeared in a puff of smoke.
