"Hermione Jean Granger, do you take Blaise Merlinius Zabini to be your lawfully wedded husband?"
"I do. She answered with the biggest smile of her life, she had managed to track down her parents and reverse the memory charm she had placed upon them and so her Father was able to give her away at her wedding.
"Do you Blaise Merlinius Zabini, take Hermione Jean Granger to be your lawfully wedded wife?"
"I do."
"Dudley Vernon Black, do you take Nora Elora Zabini to be your lawfully wedded wife?"
"I do"
"Do you, Nora Elora Zabini, take Dudley Vernon Black to be your lawfully wedded husband?"
"I do."
"I now pronounce you husband and wife, you may kiss the bride." The priest finished, officially marrying the two couples together.
They partied for many hours, seeing the sun rise on a new day, before the two newly married couples left for their honeymoon.

Elias and Derek had decided to return to Hogwarts to finish their education, revelling in the fame of having fought in the last battle of the war.
They were joined by Harry, who had returned to take up Professor McGonagall's offer of employment, being able to officially establish Elemental training as part of the curriculum.
At the start of the next school year he would gain the title of Professor, working along Professors Gaunt and Lupin, though Professor Flitwick and Snape would occasionally join in, the latter pretending he would rather be anywhere but there whenever he attended.
Eventually when Harry and Daphne had children, they would study under their father at Hogwarts, though they would arrive with an unfair advantage as Harry planned to train them in using their Air Elemental powers.

The process of releasing the Malfoy family vault went smoother than expected and Draco was now able to access anything and everything associated with the Malfoy name.
He had been staying at his boyfriend Ron's house, as had his mother, but they would be able to construct a new Manor house for the future of the Malfoy line.
On the last day they were living at the Burrow, Draco took Ron and their parents to one side, offering Ron's parents a Dowry and asking for their blessing to marry each other.
Molly and Narcissa made eye contact for a moment before they let out a delighted shriek each, gushing over the ring Draco had purchased for Ron.
"So, Ron, will you marry me?" Draco asked, with Ron engulfing him in a hug that took Draco's breath away.
"Of course I will." He responded without breaking the hug.

"Could you give me a hand with this Gellert? Even with magic I cannot lift it."
"Yes Dr Black, of course I can help you." The old man responded, helping Nora levitate some of the new equipment they had received.
Their mind research center was nearly ready to begin working towards better understanding the minds of magical and non-magical folk, with the goal of working towards fixing Neville's parents.
After they finished setting the place up, the trio went next door to Harry's house, stopping to chat with Daphne for a while before the married Doctors left for their own house and Grindelwald headed for his room, he would be moving to live with his Aunt Bathilda in a few weeks but until then he was able to live with Harry and Daphne.

"He's perfect." Sirius whispered upon being handed his son, passing the infant to Petunia and sitting next to her so they could both examine their newborn, born on the eight of July, nineteen-ninety-eight.
"What should we name him?" Petunia asked him, knowing about the tradition within the black family of naming their children after star systems.
"I will let you choose, Regulus can always name a child after a star system if he so desires."
"I think I'll name him Damien, Damien Ryan Black. If that is okay with you." Petunia suggested, causing Sirius' dance to split into a pleased smile.
"Little Damy. I like that." He responded, leaving a kiss upon his new son's forehead.

Hermione and Blaise's son was a handful, so much so that Blaise didn't know how he would manage seventeen more years of being a father, longer if they decided to have another child, however every time he looked into his baby's eyes he was reminded what unconditional love was.
Hermione had begun training to become a magical researcher, as she loved transfiguration and charms enough to devote her life to furthering the understanding of the subject.
Her main priority was research into the fundamental magical forces of the universe, though she knew that she could spend her entire life searching and never find anything to do with them.
/_^_^/
As for Neville and Theo, they decided to tour the world, immersing themselves in all of the cultures of the world, though they were never out of the country for longer than four months at a time, primarily due to Neville's Grandmother's declining health.
They would often bump into Luna and her husband Rolf, who were content to spend the rest of their lives searching for Nargles. Luna wouldn't settle in a single place until she discovered a new species of fairy, which she promptly named after her late father.

Dudley Black thought it was difficult enough to handle two children, how Harry had managed to raise four Air Elementals without exploding from stress he would never know. Lily, Petunia, who were twins, and James, and Vernon were all good kids, with the last one being Dudley's godson.
When Harry had come to him to tell him that he had named his son Vernon, and to ask him to be the Godfather to him, Dudley had wept for an hour before accepting.
The next generation of Vipers departed for Hogwarts and Dudley knew they would be in good hands.
He watched as they waved out the window at him, with his Mother standing beside him, crying her eyes out. He comforted her as they headed home, seeing Frank and Alice waving off their Grandchildren.
