(A/N) Thanks for all of the positive reviews, guys!

*Previously…*
"This is it," Dudley announced, "Number 12, Grimwald Place!"
The two Halfas looked around the square. 9, 10, 11, 13, 14… It seemed as if whomever had numbered the houses had done a crappy job, because they had completely skipped Number 12.
"Um," Danny said, "Dudley, there's no Number 12."
Dudley gave a chuckle. "That's what I said the first time Harry brought me here. The house is hidden with, what else, magic."
Danielle looked at the house in awe. "I've seen a lot since I left after Danny stabilized me –long story- but I've never seen anything like magic."
The trio got out of the car, and walked up to the small space in between Number's 10 and 11, and a house seemed to swell out of nothingness. The house looked nicer – and bigger- than the surrounding, and had a look of antiquity (I hope I used that word right.) about it.
Dudley knocked on the door, and Danny and Dani (with their super-enhanced hearing) could faintly hear a little boy's voice yell, "Mum! Get the door!"
The door opened revealing a comfortable looking interior, and a pretty woman, maybe in her early thirties-late twenties, with red hair opened the door. She looked from Dudley, to Danielle, to Danny. Her eyes widened slightly. "Dudley," she said, "Is it, is this-"
"I'm Daniel," Danny said simply, "but I like to be called Danny."
"Why didn't you or Harry tell me that you had another kid, Ginny?" Dudley said in a semi-joking tone of voice.
"I didn't even tell Harry until after the war was over…" Ginny said. "Danny, Harry's really going to want to finally meet you. So will James, Albus, and Lily."
"I have siblings?" Danny mused quietly.
Ginny nodded. "James is eight, Albus is seven, and Lily is five*."
"Well, I have to go. I need to get to work soon." Dudley said, and the others bore him farewell.
As they walked through the hall, Danny noticed that there were spaces that looked as if something had been removed from the wall. "What used to be there?" he asked his mother.
She looked over her shoulder to where he was pointing. "Oh, the Black family, from whom we inherited the house when your fathers godfather died, used to hang the heads of their house elves there."
"Uh, what's a house elf?" Dani asked uncertainly, but before Ginny could reply, a small, wrinkled creature came into the hallway from the kitchen.
"Mistress Ginevra has guests," the…thing…said, "I'll put more porridge on for them."
"Thank you, Kreacher." Ginny replied kindly. After he left, she said to the two, "That's a house elf. His name is Kreacher. He came with the house, and is almost as ancient. Used to be sort of nasty, but it didn't help that Sirius, that's Harry's godfather, wasn't very nice to him…" she trailed off as they entered the kitchen.
There were four people surrounding the table, where Kreacher was serving breakfast. Three of them, a man and two little boys, all had messy black hair. Danny assumed that these were Harry, James, and Albus. The fourth, a little girl, had long red hair and hazel eyes, like her mother.
"Ginny, darling," Harry said, "Who's this?"
"Harry, remember the night that we went back to the Burrow, after the Battle of Hogwarts, and what I told you?" Ginny said.
Harry nodded slowly. "Yes, you reminded me of the night before Bill and Fleur's wedding, how we, well… You said that you were pregnant while I was hunting Hocruxes, you were pregnant, but you gave him up to be safe…Oh!" he looked at Danny with sudden realization. "You, you're Daniel?" he all but whispered this.
The older of the two boys at the table –James- looked up in interest. "You're my bother?" he asked.
Danny nodded. "Yeah, I am, but I like to be called Danny. Only teachers and my arch-nemesis call me Daniel."
Ginny turned to Dani. "Who are you, sweetheart?" she asked kindly.
"I'm Danielle, some people call me Dani with an i, and I'm Danny's…" She trailed off, uncertain of what to say.
"She's my evil clone." Danny said with a shrug.
"Hey! I'm not evil!" Dani exclaimed.
"Really? Because if I remember correctly, you and Vlad tried to use me to make another, more 'perfect' clone of me."
"Fine," Danielle amended, "I'm not evil anymore."
"Why would someone clone you, and why would the clone end up being a girl?" Harry asked.
Danny and Dani shared a look.
"Um, we should probably explain some stuff…" Danny said awkwardly, rubbing the back of his neck.
(A/N) I'm sorry that it's a short chapter, but I need to finish some chemistry homework. After I'm done with that, I need to catch up on Once Upon a Time, Grimm, Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., Modern Family, Legend of Korra, and Studio C. Yeah, a lot. DO you guys watch Studio C? You should, it's awesome. I love Matt he's so funny. Anyway, bye!
Updated, Friday, November29, 2013: So I accidently did my math wrong (I'm not great at math) so I changed the ages of James, Albus, and Lily from six, five, and three to eight, seven, and five.
