After what felt like hours, Draco opened his eyes, to see two boys staring at him. Only then did he remember everything. The dying, meeting Salazar and Godric, given a chance to change the Future and to his utter humiliation, the fainting. Both boys were looking at him with worry. Both with traditional Black family brownish black hair and grey eyes.
Draco quickly went through the Black Family tree, that was etched in his mind. His mother has two sisters, which meant that these two boys were his mother's cousins. "What's with you two?" he said roughly, as he decided to play along.
The older, whose name he just remembered as Sirius, said, "Come on Drake, did you forget that we are going to Diagon Alley to buy our first year books. Reg is coming with us. Mother said that Cissa will take us."
Draco rubbed his eyes and said, "Uh, alright. Give me half an hour, I'll join you"
Sirius nodded and said, " Hurry. Reg and I shall wait in the sitting room."
Draco nodded as he saw the boys leave the room. Sighing, he walked toward the wardrobe and opened it. He should have known that when Salazar said that he would have to sacrifice his identity, but he was not paying that much of attention. So now, not only was he in the past, but he was like thirty years into the past. Great.
Quickly recollecting the Black family tree again, he gathered that the two boys were Sirius Black and Regulus Black. Wait. Did Sirius said they were going to buy their first year books? Wonderful.
After grabbing a set of Wizarding robes, Draco went toward what he believed to be the bathroom. Quickly donning the robes, he went downstairs and entered the room near the stairs. And soon found that the Black family tapestry was there. Draco walked toward the tapestry and looked. The first thing that caught his eyes was his mother's name. Narcissa Black. A smile tugged at his lips as he trailed his fingers across her name. Next to her name were her sisters' names. Andromeda Black and Bellatrix Black.
His eyes inched a little higher toward the names of his maternal grandparents names. Cygnus and Druella Black. And just near their names were Orion and Walburga Black. His mother's uncle and deranged aunt. And just below their names were the names that made his eyes widen. Sirius Black and Draco Black. Born 3rd November 1959. And next to it was Regulus Black. Born 5th April 1961. Draco blinked rapidly at the information. So he was twin brother of Sirius Black, elder brother of Regulus Black and cousin to his mother. Draco felt flabbergasted by this new information.
Before he could even process it, Sirius came running telling him to hurry since it was time for them go to Diagon Alley. Years of cooped up in the Grimmauld Place made it easier for him to find the Floo Room. His mother- No, she was no longer his mother. Now she was his cousin, Narcissa Black was waiting there with her elder sister Andromeda Black. Sirius and Regulus were waiting there as well. One by one they flooed to Diagon Alley.
While Narcissa was entertaining Regulus, Andromeda took him and Sirius to Madam Malkin's for their school robes. The boys were asked to stand in the aisle so they could be fitted, while Andromeda sat silently waiting for them to finish.
Draco felt a ridiculously annoying sense of deja vu. Last time he was standing here, we met the insufferable prat that went by the name, Harry Potter. Draco rolled his eyes as he recalled that distinct situation in which Potter humiliated him in front of his peers. As he was lost in his thoughts of how he got back to Potter and his ginger sidekick. It was a pity that Hermione always ended up in the crossfire.
As if on queue the bells chimed, alerting them of the newcomers. Draco turned around to see a boy who looked like Harry Potter entered the shop. But if it wasn't for his hazel eyes, he would have thought it was Harry Potter himself. Oh let's not forget the arrogant way he carried himself.
His doubts were further confirmed when he introduced himself as James Potter. And two minutes later, he heard a very familiar voice that he a most forgot in his extremely confused mind.
"James Potter, I told you to wait for me" she shouted with the oh so familiar foot stomping. The only response she hot was the laughter from said Potter.
Draco swollen hard as he slowly turned around to face her. But she was rather busy glaring at Potter. He just stood there, unsure if he was supposed to make his presence known. Fortunately for him, her gaze met his. A short look of recognition flashed in her violet eyes. Wait, violet eyes? He was more than certain that she had hazel eyes. Intrigued, his gaze slid up to her head to see her bushy brown hair was no longer so. Instead it was exotic raven black curls. An involuntary smile tugged at his lips. But his internal monologue was subdued by the voice of the woman who came near his aisle after done measuring his brother, who was now having a very animated talk about something with the Potter boy.
He turned around to get measured for the school robes. After the measuring was over, he slowly made his way toward Andromeda, where Hermione was currently sulking. He cleared his throat to get the attention of both girls. "Andromeda, do you mind if I step out for some time.?"
Andromeda just shook her head and told him to try to be near the shop.
Draco grinned and nodded at her.
Andromeda chuckled and said, "Off you go" and bent down to drown again in the magazine.
Draco's eyes shifted to Hermione's and nodded at her. Draco then proceeded to step out. Moments later the girl came out of the shop. He turned around and released a loud sigh. "Please tell me you remember" he almost pleaded.
Hermione sighed, "Thank Godric. I thought I was going mad."
Draco grimaced and nodded. "Me too"
And just like that they broke out into giggles.
Moments later Draco smirked and asked, "So, you are a Potter?"
Hermione nodded, "Apparently James and I are twins"
Draco raised his eyebrows, " Well that's strange"
Hermione frowned, " Why?"
"It seems that Sirius and I are twins as well" Draco said.
