As always thanks for the reviews. I love it all. You all make me for so special. However there is one particular reviewer who is extra special to this story. Without her this story probably wouldn't have gone past chapter one. I was so afraid that nobody would story and than she reviewed and gave me some confidence in my abilities. So as a special thank you I would like to dedicate this chapter to mylove24.

Brothers

The Krums and future Krum walked in silence as they headed toward the nearest Floo gate, all were lost in thought. Hermione was thinking about what had just happened to her in the last few minuets. Her life had changed so quickly in the past hour that her mind was trying to keep up with it. Viktor was thinking about how his brothers might react to his bride. Ognyan was thinking about how he was going to keep his wife from killing his future daughter in-law with love. Mira, of course, was thinking about grandchildren. Lots of grandchildren.

"Alright ve vill to go Krum Manor, and you vill meet Viktor's brothers. Over lunch ve can start planning the vedding." Mira said Hermione one more bone crushing hug before following her husband home.

The young people stood in silence not making any move follow the adults. "You know. I'm wondering if we should just elope." Hermione said breaking the silence. She was half serious about that after meeting Mira Krum. Together with Molly and Ginny Hermione knew the wedding was going to be a lot bigger than she really wanted. Viktor thought about it for a moment than shook his head.

"More trouble then it is vorth. My brothers vould beat me senseless if I denied them a chance vhere they could tease me. Of course that is if they could get to me before my mother. She vould kill me." He said that with such seriousness on his face that Hermione could not help laughing.

He chuckled a little as well, but stopped as Hermione was about to Floo. "Vait!" and he pulled her back. "Before ve go I must warn you about my brothers." Viktor once again looked very serious and once again Hermione smiled.

"I am serious Hermione! You must be varned!" He took her hands in his as if to reinforce his point. Viktor felt that she should be warned as much as possible. "I have four older brothers. My oldest brother is Boyko. He is the new charms teacher at Durmstrang. He is nice and quiet, but once he gets to know you he vill probably become very protective of you. Maybe even overly protective." This didn't bother the girl one bit; all you had to do was look at the family she came from to see why. "My second brother is…vell it vill take him a vhile to varm up to you. Until he does he may seem cold. Don't take it personally. It is just his nature."

"Viktor some of my brother's are the most infamous pranksters in all of Europe. Another is the savior of the wizarding world. My two oldest were once tried to beat up Neville because he had to kiss me under the mistletoe last Christmas. I highly doubt that any way your brothers may act will shock me. You really don't worry." Hermione said trying one more tine to get though the Floo, but Viktor pulled her back.

"I'm serious about Kamen, my second brother. He goes to Phoenix University and thinks that makes better than anyone. Plus he has that…pureblood mentality." He told her. "Than there is Miroslav and Valko. They are…vhat is the term? Irish twins, born vithin eleven months of each other. They are both in their last years of Dumstrang. They are very close to one another and do not usually get close to people outside of the family. I'm not sure how they will react to you, but if they like you half as much as I do than you should get along vell." Hermione blushed at this comment and smiled. "Last there is my baby brother Radko. He is only five years old, but very sweet. He vill probably vant to talk to you a lot and ask you many questions. He is very smart and loves learning new things." He sighed looked at the Floo gate. "I think that is it. Time for lunch." The look on his made Hermione think that they were about to duel Death Eaters rather than go to a simple family lunch. He gave Hermione's hand a squeeze and together they went to Krum Manor.

It wasn't long before Hermione landed on something that went "umph" from underneath her. The young witch opened her eyes and for the second time that day looked down to see she had landed someone. Only this time it was her betrothed she had used as a pillow. "Sorry! I've never been good at Floo travel." She said getting up quickly. Viktor just smiled and stood up. They had landed in a huge living room. On the walls hung paintings of Krums past and present. The hardwood floor was covered in huge intricate rugs to protect the floor from the five chairs, couch, and coffee table. All were carved from rosewood and looked absolutely beautiful. The colors in the room were various reds, black, and other dark colors yet it felt warm and inviting. Hermione could easily see a family sitting around the coffee table after dinner talking and enjoying each other's company.

"As long as you're not hurt. Vhere is everyone…" He started to say before spotting two little feet behind one of the chairs. "I see you Radko. Come out and say hello." Viktor told the pair of feet with a little laugh in his voice. Hermione look over at said pair of feet and got a little nervous when they didn't move. She had not been around young children a lot in her life, so she did not know how to approach the youngest Krum boy. Viktor solved the problem by walking over and scooping up the child into his arms.

Radko looked like the kind of kid you just wanted to hug. He had thick dark locks, dark eyes, and dimpled smile. Hermione walked over to the brothers with a smile and held out her hand. "Hello my name's Hermione. I'm going to marrying your brother soon."

The little boy looked at her for a few moments before saying anything. "You can't marry Viktor. Your too pretty." He said jumping out of the Seekers arms and hugging her legs. "You should marry me instead." The couple was a bit shocked by these statements. Viktor had not anticipated his brother to warm up to Hermione just like that. Hermione just wasn't expecting that kind of reaction. She smiled and kneeled down on the floor, so she could be eye to eye with him.

"I have to marry your brother. The people who make laws told me to." She told him. When the boy's lip began to tremble she quickly took his hands in hers. "But I can be your big sister. Whenever you want get tired of your brothers you just come to me and we can play or read or do whatever you want." At these words the Radko's face brightened and he hugged her around the neck.

"Yay!"

"Hermione you vill make a vonderful mother to my grandchildren." Mari said with what looked like tears in her eyes. Behind here were three young men. The tallest hand a small beard and a dragon fang earring. He was taller than Viktor by a good four inches, but he had the same muscle build. He had inherited his father's dark eyes. His hair was a lighter brown, and long enough he had to tie it back to keep it out of his face. The second tallest was different. He was Viktor's twin in body build, but his hair was blond and his eyes were deep blue. The third young man was a mixture of the two. Tall, strongly built, blue eyes, brown hair. Hermione looked at them curiously. She knew they had to be Viktor's brothers, but didn't know who was who. Mari smiled and took charge of the introductions.

"Hermione these are three of my six boys." She said with obvious pride that all mothers seemed to posses. "The tallest is my oldest boy, Boyko." He smiled and walked over to her. "I'm glad that my little brother got paired with someone beautiful." He said charmingly. Another unexpected reaction that caused Hermione to blush every so slightly.

"And next to him is my fourth son, Valko."

Valko walked up to her and took her hand. Giving it a light kiss he looked up at her with a smile. "It is a pleasure to meet you. I am, as my mother said, Valko. Vhat she failed to mention is that I am the best looking of the Krum brothers." He said with a glint of mischief in his eyes. It was easy to tell the two would get alone almost as well as she did with Radko.

"And the blond is my second son Kamen." Maria introduced. Hermione held out her hand to shake his, but he just stood there with his arms folded across his chest.

All the boys looked at her in different ways. Boyko regarded her with a mixture of amusement and pity. Kamen was giving her glare that could make Snape shake in his boots. Valko just looked like the twins did when they were handed an opportunity to prank someone without being caught.

"Now that you have met most the Krum men let's all go and have some lunch." Mari turned around and headed to the dinning room. The older boys followed their mother, but new young couple stood where they were. The both opened their mouth to say something to the other, but Radko started to pull on his new sister's hand.

"Come on! This vay! You can sit next to me! " He told her leaving her no choice to follow. Viktor was just a few silent steps behind them. Though neither of them expressed their feelings out loud, but both were praying that lunch would go by quick and painless. When everyone was seated lunch began. Little did anyone at that table know that this lunch would be told in the Krum family for years to come.
