Chapter 6-The House on Karris Lane

Last Time:

"Yes, Miss. Evans, I do," Dumbledore said when he thought he should intervene. The six teens turned around sheepishly and looked at their aging headmaster.

Onto the story:

As the six turned around, they spotted two beautiful girls standing behind Albus. One had mousy brown hair with mahogany and blonde highlight and blue-grey eyes that seemed more blue than anything. They sparkled with suppressed laughter. The other was the exact opposite. She had blonde hair with strawberry streaks and blue-grey eyes that seemed to be more grey. Her eyes also sparkled with laughter but they had an undertone of seriousness while the other seemed more carefree.

"Miss Evans, Mr. Potter, I would like you both to meet your first assignment-" Albus was cute off by the brunette as soon as he said assignment.

"We are not to be treated like frivolous papers that one looses after being graded," she said with a Greek accent.

"Speak for yourself," the other said with a thicker Greek accent, "I find they come in handy later." Lily's eyes seemed to go from disapproval at the brunette's word to happiness at the blondes in an instant.

"I do not lose them, I was talking about the guys and how they would most likely lose us if they considered us assignments" replied the brunette with a smirk that could rival any Malfoy any day. The blonde chuckled at the brunette's antics while all four boys took offense to what was going on. Replies like 'we don't' and 'I never lose them' and 'well she does have a point but still' came up in a jumble.

Albus Dumbledore took in the scene before him and smiled. Those two girls would be the death of him. It seemed that Hermione got a lot of influence from her Aunt Eris, just like Eris got a lot from her mother. Before anything got too out of hand he decided to step in and start talking.

"Yes, what I meant was, that these two mischievous ladies will be your wards for the remainder of the summer. They were home schooled before this and have decided to attend Hogwarts for their final year of schooling so when they are out in the real world they will know people other than me."

"Oh, Unc Al, you wound me so" replied the brunette, eyes sparkling with planned mischief. Albus didn't like it but decided that there was nothing he could do about it.

"My dearest God Daughters, the people that you will follow around at ALL times and obey at ALL times are the head students, Lily Evans (he pointed to a petite red haired young woman with deep emerald eyes) and James Potter (he pointed to a young man with raven hair that stuck up at odd ends that had hazel eyes covered by glasses) they will be the head students at Hogwarts whom you both will go to if you have a problem. If it is out of their hands then go to a professor or me."

Both girls nodded and looked at each other with sly smiles, like they were planning something. The Marauders looked hesitant to be around them; for fear that they would take away their title of Hogwarts' Greatest Pranksters.

"Now Mister Potter's friends are Sirius Black (he pointed to a tall young man with ebony locks that fell into his grey eyes), Remus Lupin (he pointed to a young man with a scar across his cheek and sandy locks that fell into his amber eyes), and Peter Pettigrew (he pointed to a small young man with mousy brown hair and watery blue eyes that darted around looking for any sign of trouble). Miss Evan's friend is Amber-Mirage, usually called Mirage or Mira, Huntington (he pointed to another petite young woman who had amber colored hair falling across her face and into her deep blue eyes that had flecks of Irish green in them). I hope you two enjoy your time before school. Today is Saturday July 22. That mean that there is a little over a month before you all go back to school. Now be good and do not let me hear about any mischief the two of you will be or have caused."

"Yes Unc Al" the two replied in unison.

"My students," Albus said turning to face the other six, "These two young women are my God Daughters, Hermione (he pointed to the brunette) and Eris (he pointed to the blonde) Argyris. They are transfer students and war refugees so I expect you all to treat them as you would treat each other. Now, I will leave you all, my professors are returning from their vacation today." With that Albus Dumbledore gave them a portkey and an address and a key, and walked over to the fireplace. Before he left he called out, "The portkey will leave at 1:25, that is in five minutes." He left with a swirl of green flames as the eight teens gathered around the portkey as five minutes later they appeared outside a small white cottage with ocean blue shutters in the middle of an all Wizarding village called Winglet, in the middle of Scotland, 10,00 kilometers away from Hogsmeade.

The small cottage had a stone stepping path that led up to the white front door. There were two windows with baby blue drapes on the inside that looked out over the front yard.

The eight made their way inside 137 Karris Lane. The interior was beautiful. The front sitting room was painted white with blue drapes, a large fireplace, and navy blue furniture with an oak desk. There was a hall that had moving pictures of animals that led to three different doors; the door directly to the right was the kitchen.

The kitchen was painted lemon yellow and had black tiles. There was a black marble counter top and an oak and black marble center island. The counter top had a sink and below it were drawers. Above it there were six sets of oak cabinets all filled with food, dishes, cups, and different soaps (for washing hands, scrubbing dishes, and doing laundry). Next to the cabinets and above the sink there was a large window. In the drawers, there was platinum wear (Werewolves can't be around silver thought Hermione), spices and mixes. There was a round oak table that seated ten pushed up against the wall and off to the left of the room there was a magical washing machine. Next to the door, there was a fridge and a freezer that was already full of food. Before the guys could eat any of it, the girls, Lily and Mirage, pulled the boys out to look at what was behind the door across from the kitchen.

That room was a den/ library. The walls were a dark maple and the furnishings were dark red/maroon. Two walls had cook shelves filled with books while the other had a couch up against it. There was a bay window on the last wall, which was the only source of light on the room. Next to the window, there was a smaller fireplace for cold summer nights. Overall, this seemed to be a room all eight would spend time in.

They all exited the den area and went to the middle door. It held two staircases, one going up, and the other going down. They went down first. Downstairs was a wine cellar that held elf made wine, Meade, ale, Ogden's Finest Firewhiskey, muggle brandy, and Vodka. There would be many nights spent putting that alcohol to good use. Walking back up the stairs, they took the other staircase to the upstairs area of the cottage.

The upstairs was much lighter than downstairs. A whole wall was full of windows and the ceiling seemed to reach at least 15 meters. The walls were a bright tan color and the drapes were a pale green. The hallway floor was maple and there was a long rug that was the same pale green color as the drapes but had designs in black. This hallway seemed to go on for 20 meters. AH, the wonders of magic thought Eris with a grin. The first door on the left read BOYS in bold letters. Opening the door they were greeted with a very male sight.

The room was full of Quidditch posters, so much so that one couldn't tell if that was the wallpaper or not. There was a chandelier hanging down from a space where there was no poster and a big floor to ceiling window with maroon drapes. The room was the same height as the hallway and was about 15 meters long. There were four four-poster beds and four walking in closets to the left that already held their clothing. On the right there was a large white marble bathroom with a Wizarding tub and a shower and four sinks with a long mirror and a private area for a toilet.

They all exited the boys' room and headed halfway down the hall to the girls room. There were fancy script letters that announced that this was the girls' room. Inside, the walls were painted a light lilac color with light pink accents and baby blue drapes. There was a golden chandelier hanging down from the ceiling. Also, there were four four-poster beds in a circle with the heads facing in (good for gossiping) and four walking in closets to the left that held their clothing already. To the right there was a bathroom identical to the boys' only there was a full body mirror attached to the door.

As they left that room, the walked down the hall some more and found that the hallway turned left. There were two more doors spaced the same distance apart as the girls and boys' rooms. The first door they came to proudly proclaimed it to be the green room. The room was the same size as girls and boys' rooms and had a green theme that was made up of sea foam green, light green, dark green and emerald green. There were two four-poster beds in the center of the room and a chandelier hung down from the ceiling. Off to the right there was a bathroom identical to the girls' and there was a Wizarding window (A/N: Like the ones in St. Mungo's-- shows day and night and gives off light). "Hey, me and Lily-Flower can stay here when I am kicked out," said James.

Ugh, why Potter of all people thought Lily with an eye roll. James saw this and replied.

" Awe, you know you love me." Replied James with a big smile.

"And that is where you are wrong." Lily replied with her eyes narrowing. She left the room and everyone followed, laughing at what they had witnessed. James looked hurt and Sirius patted him on the back before leading him out of the room and into the next.

The next room had a sign that said blue room and was the same size as the last. It also had a chandelier. This room had a blue theme and was made up light blue, baby blue, and dark blue. There were two beds in the center of the room and off to the right there was a bathroom identical to the girls'. Exiting that room the walked to the end of the hallway. James stared at Lily as she walked.

Hermione decided to say something about James and Lily, so she did. "Aw, you two make such a cute couple!"

Cricket Cricket Cricket was all that was heard before Remus and Mirage broke out into laughter followed by Sirius. Lily looked indifferent and James looked ecstatic. Eris looked a little weirded out by all the emotions while Hermione pretended to be confused. Sirius patted her on the back and explained what was funny. Hermione made an 'oh' sound but in her head she was already forming a plan to get the two together.

Little did she know that Eris had the same plan running through her head.

At the end of the hall way there was a broom cupboard that held eight brooms, two cleaning brooms, a mob, and a bucket, a well as Wizarding cleaning supplies. They closed that door and looked around. They found a niche in the wall and pulled. The wall opened and there was a staircase behind it.

The teens mounted the stairs and slowly made their way up the creaking stairs. As they reached the top, both Eris and Hermione giggled, feeling the magic of their relatives all around them.

"Why are you two annoying witches giggling like first years?" whispered Sirius in an annoyed fashion. The girls just giggled and said that the magical signature tickled leaving four very confused teens and two who knew what they were talking about, being able to sense the magical signature (Two guess who).

A door appeared at the top and the teens opened it and held their breath as the room was revealed.

The room was all wood, and there was a fireplace on the fat left wall. The wall directly in front of then held a small window and a dusty tan couch. The right wall seemed to extend higher than the other three by at least 3 meters and it held a large bookcase with old and lost tomes. Lily and Mirage gasped while Eris and Hermione silently thanked their relatives at the sight of all of the tomes. The boys however, found interest in the potions set that was in the middle of the floor. The cabinet with extra ingredients and small bottles of truth serums was next to the fireplace. The boys seemed to think that they could make pranks better by making them in the form of something unsuspecting, like a charm or sweet or even in a taste-less powder sprinkled over a dinner. The girls feared that they would be the ones to test the products.

The eight teens spent some time hanging out in the small room that they dubbed the 'study' getting to know one another better. At five thirty they left the room to start making dinner.

Dinner was a boisterous affair and it was very calming to Hermione whom missed these types of meals after the death of Mrs. Weasley. At eleven thirty, they all went to their rooms where they got ready for bed and gossiped (the girls) about Hogwarts and talked about pranks (the boys) to pull on unsuspecting Slytherins.

Today was fun thought Hermione catching Eris' eye.

Yeah it was Eris replied back. Their eyes widened at what they had just done but decided not to do anything about it for the time being, and promptly fell asleep with possible conclusions swirling in their heads, until Hera visited Hermione and she forgot about it for the time being.

Well, there is chapter 6. Long-ish and slightly boring but in order for me to continue, I have to explain the cottage that they will live in for the next month or so. Review please! Ideas are also welcomed!
