The fact that the twins had not slept in their beds did not go unnoticed by Ron or Hermione, when the twins entered the common room both of their friends were looking expectantly for an answer. Ginny unknowingly saved them from answering coming down from the girls staircase and telling them all she was hungry.
The twins seeing a perfect excuse followed Ginny to the great hall. Hermione would not be stopped that easily and as they walked down she whispered into Harry's Ear.
"We will be discussing this later"
In the great hall McGonagall was walking up and down the table handing out timetables for the year as she handed the twins theirs they smiled and silently thanked her. McGonagall returned their smile and wandered off.
The twins had Herbology first in greenhouse two, the twins groaned greenhouse two was pretty far away they would have to eat quickly to get there one time. As the four friends arrived at the greenhouse they saw Professor Lockhart telling Professor Sprout that she had been growing her plants wrong and was suggesting alternative methods that would work better.
To say Professor Sprout was angry was an understatement, when she saw the students she snapped at Lockhart to leave causing a few students to laugh. As Lockhart passed the twins and gave them a cheeky smile this smile unnerved the twins a little and they hurried into the green house.
The twins had learnt first year that neither was particularly skilled in herbology. In this lesson they had been re potting Mandrakes. They had been taught the uses of the Mandrake and been told that their screams could knock out or even kill someone.
After a hot shower in their private bathroom the twins headed to Transfiguration, both of the twins were looking forward to their Guardians lesson and as such were some of the first to arrive.
In the lesson they were to turn beetles into buttons by the end of class Hermione had transfigured many beetles, Harry had managed to transfigure nearly as many. Heather had been struggling with this piece of transfiguration, in her frustration she had jabbed her at the beetle and squashed it. After seeing this Harry took her hand under the table and tried to help her along. With his help she had two buttons and she was feeling much happier.
After Transfiguration was lunch the four friends ate fast so they could hang out in the courtyard, this turned out to be fortuitous for Hermione. No sooner had they sat down she turned to them.
"So where are you two sleeping? I noticed you're trunk wasn't in the room Heather"
Harry and Heather looked at each other they shared the same thought and sighed..
"No point in denying it she won't back off until she knows"
"No my things are in our private room" Heather said calmly to their bushy haired friend who looked at them stunned.
"How? I've read only married couples get private rooms" This caused Harry and Heather to blush a little.
"McGonagall knows we don't sleep well alone and get cold sweats" Harry told her quietly so they would not be overheard. Before she could question them more a young first year with blond hair and a camera came running over.
"YOUR THE POTTER'S" He shouted very excitedly causing others in the courtyard to listen in.
"Can I please get one of your friends to take a picture of me with you both? I just have to get proof i have met you. Maybe you could also sign it"
Things went even further downhill from there. Malfoy had heard and shouted for people to line up and get signed photos. This caused Lockhart to swoop in and "save'' them. He had insisted on being in the photo so that the Potters would be less of the attention.
To Harry and Heather's annoyance they then had been led up to the castle by Lockhart since they had his class next. Ron would not stop laughing at how uncomfortable the twins had been.
Hermione took pity on them and hit Ron lightly.
"Harry and Heather are our friends you really shouldn't laugh when they are not feeling comfortable" Ron looked apologetic and mumbled an apology. This caused Heather to hug Hermione and Harry to silently thank her for which she smiled and led them into the Defence room.
The lesson itself had been a complete shambles. The new Defence Professor started with a quiz that was entirely about himself. Only Hermione got all correct and only the other girls, except Heather did well at all.
After his quiz he showed the class several caged Cornish Pixies, they were small Blue creatures with wings and very Mischievous smiles. Without a care in the world he opened the cage. What happened next could only be described as chaos the Pixies immediately started terrorising the students. Lockhart realised he messed up and cast a spell "Peskipiksi Pesternomi" Which did absolutely nothing. Shortly after this he fled from the room leaving Harry, Heather, Hermione and Ron to stop the pests.
After seeing Hermione mobilise two of the Pixies with the Petrification charm Harry and Heather copied her and they managed to round up the pixies. The room however they could do nothing for so they left with only Hermione still claiming that Lockhart was not a fraud.
Ron and the Twins spent the next few days completely avoiding their defence professor, Hermione thought this was ridiculous and did not follow them whenever they hid.
Much to their annoyance that night Colin had come over to them in the common room and asked again for a photo when the twins politely refused he looked put out. Ginny pulled Collin away and gave him a talking to and Collin was much easier to talk to after that.
That night Minerva received a very odd request. It was this request that found Minerva headed up to Dumbledore's office rather late. As she walked up to the office she could only suspect this had something to do with her allowing the Potter's access to the Head girl room.
Before entering Minerva made sure her Occlumency shields were up, She than sat opposite Dumbledore. "How can I help you Albus? It must be important if your calling me so late.
Dumbledore did not miss the hostility in Minerva's voice even so when he responded he sounded calm.
"I wish to talk about making the Potter's wards of Hogwarts i feel they will be much safer here in my care" Minerva did not try to hide her look of frustration.
"I am doing a fine job of looking after the Potter's and might i add i have Lily and James' Blessing to raise their children" Dumbledore remained calm, this slightly annoyed Minerva.
"I am not denying your ability to care for the children but having them here at Hogwarts is the best option. After Private drive i owe it to them to make it right"
"DON'T YOU DARE TALK ABOUT WHAT HAPPENED IN PRIVATE DRIVE. In eleven years you didn't try to visit them once. It was bad enough when I plead with you not to leave them there I begged you not to allow it but your path always has to be right. Let me make this clear Albus I will look after the Potter's until my last breath and i will not be letting you meddle in their lives"
As Minerva got up to leave Dumbledore let out a loud sigh.
"I will be speaking to the Wizengamot tomorrow about this i'm sorry Minerva but i have to do what's best for Harry and Heather"
Minerva didn't even look back at Dumbledore as she left, if she had she would have seen Fawkes give Dumbledore a very cold look.
Minerva walked briskly to her Private Quarters, the second she arrived she wiped a stray tear from her face and knelt by the fire.
"Bones Residence" She said into the flames, Venom clear in her in the fire Amelia Bones could tell Minerva was more mad than she had ever seen before.
"Minerva whats wrong?" If Minerva was calling this late it must be serious and most certainly concerning the Potters.
After Minerva told Amelia everything that Albus had said Amelia looked a little concerned.
"While we have Lily and James' will, Albus is revered by many, if he tries to claim guardianship people may side with him just because he is Dumbledore"
Minerva who had already considered this was looking very upset.
"I will not let Albus take control of their lives just because some Prophecy says they will be the ones to end Voldemort"
"I will do everything I can to make sure you remain their guardians, they looked much better last time I saw them and I can see how good you are for them"
Minerva could not hide her tears any longer ended the call and got ready for bed. Amelia however was too angry to sleep she started to prepare a defence immediately.
The next morning Harry and Heather were woken by Rosie, they had not expected their house elf to be in Hogwarts and were definitely confused.
"Harry and Heather must be waking up, Mistress McGonagall is wanting a word with you in private before breakfast, she asks you bring your dads cloak"
Hearing Rosie's words both twins dressed fast and after thanking Rosie made their way down to see their Guardian. Harry was particularly angry when he hear what the Headmaster was planning.
"We will just refuse" He had said defiantly. Causing McGonagall to laugh a little and hug the two children she considered as good as her own. They decided to eat breakfast together none of them wanting to leave.
After breakfast the twins had potions this was Harry's least favourite lesson even with Heather helping. He did not understand what Snape's problem was. He always treated Harry especially bad he had thought it was because he was a Potter at first but he didn't act the same way with Heater in fact Harry was sure that whenever he looked at Heater he saw sadness in Snape's eyes.
When they arrived Snape moved harry and Seamus so that Harry was now working with Neville and Seamus with Heather. Malfoy looked like he had just won the lottery at the look of sadness on the potter's faces.
"Let's see you cheat now Potter i don't know how you were doing it but i intend to stop it"
Harry bit back his retort, he knows Snape would like nothing more than to dock him twenty points in the first five minutes. The only reason he could keep his cool was because Heather was smirking through their bond.
"He is going to be so shocked when you ace this potion"
At the end of potions Snape looked like he was going to kill Harry. In his fury he grabbed Harry's shoulder roughly and dragged him out of the room, Heather had to run to keep up. Snape did not stop dragging Harry until they were at the entrance to Dumbledore's office.
Snape muttered the password and then continued to drag Harry much to Heather's annoyance.
As soon as they entered the office Snape as good as through Harry into the room. Heather noticed Dumbledore did not look happy, he however did not reprimand Snape. Something Mcgonagall would hear about.
"I do not know how but these two student are cheating in my class i'm sure of it. Since they first entered my class they have produced the exact same work even skipped the same steps while brewing"
Dumbledore gave the twins a look of deep concentration, Harry immediately broke eye contact and told Heather to do the same.
"I can't believe he just tried that" Heather could sense Harry's anger but did not understand.
"Tried to do what Harry?"
"I'm almost sure that he tried to use Legilimency on us. I read about it during our time in the Library. If only I could prove it it's very illegal to use it without asking and even worse on a minor"
Dumbledore sensed he had been caught trying to pry what he did not understand, however, was what he saw in their minds. A bright golden dome seemed to be baring access to the twins minds. This was not something he had ever come across.
"We cannot prove they are cheating Severus, they live together its is plausible they read the same books"
"Headmaster we both know that there are no shortcuts to potion making they did not read that in a book"
Dumbledore looked like he agreed with Severus but he could do nothing without proof he sent the twins away without so much as an apology and turned to snape.
"Have you tried to use Legilimency on the Potters since they arrived?"
"Naturally i was trying to find out how they were cheating" Snape spat venomously.
"What was it you saw?"
"Golden Light" He almost spat.
Nothing more needed to be said in Dumbledore's opinion and so he sent Snape on his way.
Once again Dumbledore could feel the Phoenix's disapproving glare on him. "I'm right about this i can protect them better than anyone and train them to win the war" he snapped silently to his bird. Fawkes let out an angry trill and disappeared in a flash of light.
Professor Flitwick was not at all amused when Harry and Heather arrived late. After scolding them and docking them ten points each he continued with his class. This made Harry and Heather's mood drop even lower and they sat in silence for the rest of the day.
When they arrived at the great hall for dinner McGonagall knew something was up right away. The twins did not look at her once and did not greet her like they would normally. McGonagall got up and left to her room and called Rosie, she knew the potters were rather friendly with the youngest of her house elves.
As the twins left the great hall wanting to be along they heard the familiar crack and looked around. Rosie smiled at them and took their hands.
"Mistress McGonagall is worried about yous' both please don't fight the pulling feeling"
Before they could ask what Rosie meant they were in McGonagall's office. The small elf gave them a smile, let their hands go and disappeared.
Minerva hugged the children and then sat them down on a couch.
"What happened today?"
They told McGonagall everything including Harry's suspicion about Dumbledore. She looked furious and spent the night comforting the twins. The twin's did not sleep well despite sleeping together they both hoped the next day would be better.
An: I'm not a Dumbledore fan at all he is big headed and believes things can only be done his way.
