To see what teenage Lee looks like check out 'Colin Firth in 'Another Country' and as for teenage Diana...check out Alicia Vikander. She played Taron Egerton's sister in 'Testament of Youth', and if you look at her she totally looks like she could be Taron and Colin's kid.

The Best of Choices

It was common knowledge that a dragon in its human form was a hundred times more vulnerable, physically, than if he or she were in their true form. Scales weren't just pretty to look at after all. Which wasn't to say that dragons in human form were as weak as true humans, because they weren't. Dragons, regardless of form, were still magical beings and their bodies could take considerably more damage while also healing significantly faster. Provided of course that the damage wasn't so catastrophic that the wounded individual had no chance to heal.

Unless she literally lost her head or her heart and other organs were shredded Roxy's chances of surviving and recovering completely from the damage she would have sustained if she'd remained on the bus were pretty high. Lee, being a grand high dominant, wouldn't have suffered so much as a scratch.

It also went without saying that the two Canadians who'd got off the bus to return 'Bun Bun' to Oliver would have left the site in body bags. Ambulances if they were very, very lucky.

Olly, which Harry assumed was short for Oliver, would have had only limited magic to draw on given his young age and any injuries he received would have done far more damage to his little body than to an ordinary human adult's. Roxy would have used her body to shield him, there was no question of that, but the odds of her brother receiving life threatening injuries would have still remained high, particularly when the crushed up like a soda tin lorry exploded, the flames leaping over to the bus in seconds.

Having grabbed both her brother and Lee, pulling them in and sheltering them against her chest in an automatic response to the danger before them, Roxy now let them go and told them to stand up against the nearest building wall, out of the way as she retrieved her phone to call the accident in.

Oliver looked stunned and scared, but Lee tugged and pulled him over to the building as ordered and then letting go wrapped his arms around his little friend in a big bear hug that Oliver immediately returned.

"It's okay, Olly. I won't let nothin hurt you."

Wearing a happy smile now Olly nodded in agreement, the slightly smaller boy cuddling right in as the two presented a picture of calm within the wild storm of activity around them.

How bad things got went unanswered though as the scene shifted into one that was again very different from the previous futures they'd been shown.

There be dragons.

Even though he'd never had cause to use it Harry recognize the manmade underground cave that members of the Kingsman Guild used when it came to the birthing, incubation, and hatching of dragon eggs. The large space was only lit by the torches that encircled the space and rather than 'cushy' accommodations the only thing beside the torches and the prospective parents was a heck of a lot of rocks encircling the 'nest'.

In his dragon form Harry body was covered in bronze scales that were streaked cinnamon red on his chest and belly. His folded up wings were a mixture of copper and bronze, and currently he was lying on his stomach with his massive head down and eyes closed as if asleep. Standing guard over him was Eggsy in all his dragon glory, his back to him at the moment as he kept watch. Eggsy's dragon scales were ebony black with gold tips, his wings black and slightly small for his size. His golden claws were on full display though as Eggsy watched and waited, all his attention focused on the only entrance/exit the cavern offered. Between them was a Hufflepuff shirt wearing Lee, the boy looking to be about four as he used one of the rocks as a table while he colored away happily in a coloring book.

And last, but certainly not least, was the dragon egg that lay between Lee and Harry's slumbering form.

A dragon egg's color or colors foretold the scales of the dragon growing within it, the egg itself looking like it was covered in scales. This egg looked black until the flickering light from the torches hit it just right, revealing that the dragon inside was actually one of the rare black rainbow dragons. Meaning that the scales were actually a mixture of midnight sapphire, blood dark ruby, night green emerald, and other dark gemstone shades that made that seeming darkness come alight with hidden color. Gorgeous.

Setting aside his crayon Lee got to his feet and walked over to the egg, announcing as he did that 'She's coming out now'.

Immediately Harry's dragon eyes popped open and up came his head, Eggsy's head swerving around as well as all their attention focused on the egg in question.

Most eggs cracked slowly as the dragon inside kicked and clawed his or her way out, but this egg just exploded in a burst of shards as out pounced a little black rainbow dragon. And she jumped right onto her brother who went tumbling to the ground on his back, Lee laughing as he hugged the chortling with amusement baby dragon.

"Diana!"

While their son giggled out his sister's name Harry and Eggsy's heads came down to bookend their two children between them, nuzzling at them as they all celebrated the newest addition to their family.

She was, without question, the most gorgeous baby girl dragon Harry had ever seen. And he had a moment to appreciate that fact before the scene shifted and he got to appreciate how his daughter was also the most gorgeous little girl he'd ever seen.

After he finished mentally freaking out over the fact that everyone was now seeing him and Eggsy making out on a couch together like a couple of hormone driven teenagers.

There was a big blanket over their lower halves at least, though it was hard to be grateful for that when it was still obvious that he was not just laying on top of his mate, but also laying between Eggsy's legs with said legs obviously spread and drawn up while they grinded under the blanket together.

And all the while their youngest child peeked into the room before strolling in like seeing her parents making out was an everyday occurrence that was easy to ignore. She was far more interested in the bowl of forgotten popcorn on the coffee table.

Looking to be about four years old Diana was dressed in blue onsie pajamas with white snowflakes all over them, her hair in two adorable little braids. And as Harry watched she used her telekinesis to bring the bowl of popcorn into her hands, the little girl beaming with pleasure as she looked over her stolen treat.

Thankfully this somehow alerted his future self to her presence, because future Harry lifted his head up and both he and his rumpled looking mate twisted to look in her direction.

"Diana Colleen. Why aren't you asleep like your brother and Oliver?"

His daughter almost did angelic innocence well. There was a slightly demonic glee to Diana's smile as she answered.

"They aren't asleep either, Papa. They're hiding at the top of the stairs cause they're big babies."

"Wot?" Running a hand through his hair, and were those some hints of silver Harry was seeing mixed in the light brown strands, Eggsy shimmed up to a more seated position against the couch's armrest as he asked what they were upset about. They'd seemed fine earlier.

"At their stupid friend's house they watched a movie bout a clown who lives in the sewer and bites little kids' arms off." The little girl snorted in derision. "They're scared the clown is gonna get em."

"That sounds familiar. Where do I know-"

"IT?" Eggsy interrupted with a both shocked and angry look on his face, cutting Harry off. "They were allowed ta watch 'IT'?"

"Oh dear Lord." Throwing off the blanket Harry got off of Eggsy with practiced ease and went running to get their 'poor little boys' while Eggsy turned his attention to Diana, confirming that they were correct in thinking she wasn't scared.

Diana scoffed, her dragon nature in her eyes. "If some stupid clown tried to bite me I'd bite HIS arm off."

Oh boy. His little girl was going to be one hell of a ballbuster in the future.

"That's me girl. And there ain't a chance in hell you're goin ta sleep any time soon, is there?"

Her braids flew up as she shook her head.

"All right then, come ere. We'll watch somethin funny till the lot of ya pass out."

Hurrying over Diana was scooped up into her father's arms and settled comfortably into his lap, Eggsy then turning his attention to grabbing the remote to end the movie they hadn't been watching to find something more age appropriate while Diana began digging into the popcorn with obvious relish. The scene faded away just as Harry came back into the room with two very freaked out looking eight year old boys clinging to his hands.

The next scene showed Diana looking to be about seven or eight and dressed in the classic costume of a ballerina from her perfect bun to the pink body suit and frothy tutu. Classic if one ignored the fact that she wore a miniature motorcycle jacket and was also wearing little trainers with wings that looked exactly like Eggsy's beloved pair.

Walking beside her and holding her hand was Michelle, Eggsy's mother, who had certainly aged with the times but looked softer and more at peace with the world and her place in it than she did in present day. Michelle had a bright pink gym bag in her other hand, which Harry assumed carried Diana's gear. Holding his daughter's other hand was a gangly looking teenage girl who Harry realized must be Daisy after a moment of confusion. Oh dear, she was going to need braces. She was not going to be happy about that.

Though she looked happy enough as the three female members of his family strolled around a building towards a parking lot, chatting away about the girls' night they were planning to have.

Their smiles and laughter were cut off in a flash though as six men in dark suits seemed to come out of nowhere, Michelle immediately trying to push both girls behind her as the men moved to encircle them. Dimly Harry noted that on the back of Diana's jacket were a fake set of white wings and the words 'Daddy's Angel' written out in elegant script.

"Hello, Mrs. Unwin." The man who was apparently in charge spoke softly while wearing the sort of smile dentists often wore when they knew they were going to have to do something that was going to hurt like a bitch and wanted to reassure you even as they got a sick thrill out of it at the same time. "Please hand over your granddaughter to us now."

"Over my dead, fuckin body!" Michelle hissed back, though there was definitely fear written all over her face as her head twisted back and forth, aware that they were being trapped in. That for some reason there was no one around to offer help.

"If we must that is an option, but we'd rather not. And don't try anything, Miss. Unwin-Hart. We have snipers set up around the perimeter. We realize the bullets won't hurt you, but the same cannot be said for your grandmother or aunt." Another one of those smiles. "Just come with us willingly, and we promise they'll be spared. Though you should know that they will continued to be shadowed so that if you misbehave at another time they will be punished for it."

"Diana, stay where ya are."

"Will you sacrifice your daughter for her, Mrs. Unwin? We aren't going to hurt Diana. Far from it in fact. She'll be treated like the goddess that she is and-" A choking noise, the leader's hand coming up to cup his throat.

"Villains and their stupid monologuing. No one wants to hear that."

Every one of the assailants dropped to the ground like puppets with their strings cut. They just lay there on the concrete without twitching, their limbs at odd angles and their eyes all closed.

Michelle's eyes were all but bugging out of her head as she twisted around to confirm that they were all down and out before turning completely around to join her daughter in staring down at Diana, who had her hands on her hips and was looking quite pleased with herself.

"Luv...what did ya do ta them?"

"I broke all the bones in their limbs. But I knocked em unconscious first. Cause Papa said that's more humane."

"That's over a hundred and twenty bones." Daisy breathed out.

"Yup. And I didn't miss a one." Was Diana's proud statement.

"I thought Harry had some sort of leash on your powers, yours and Lee's so you couldn't..." Michelle's voice died away, either from shock or just not wanting to think about just how much damage her dragon grandchildren could cause.

"He does. Mummies of grand high dominants can leash their kids' most dangerous abilities till we're adults. He does that so we don't hurt people if we get really mad or sad and don't think things through. That's why I told Papa what was happening in my head and he took off the leash so I could save you." Diana looked down at the closest assailant with distaste before smiling back at her grandmother. "And Papa says we have to hurry home so he and Da can see we're okay before we have our girls' night. Otherwise they'll worry and worry."

Daisy, obviously aware that Michelle was even more freaked out than she was, gave her mother a few pats on the arm. "At least look at it this way, Mum. We won't ever have ta worry bout some gobshite steppin out of line with her when she's dating. She'll scare the piss out of em."

Michelle nodded in agreement with that while Diana reminded them that they should get going. She'd been promised pizza and a manicure.

The next scenes were all the quick clips type, brief images that denoted the passing of time while enforcing the idea that he, Eggsy, and their two children would have a wonderful life together if the bastards in the room and in other parts of the world left them the hell alone. Him brushing out Diana's hair for her, the lot of them playing in the park with J.B and then eating meals together. There was a scene of Colin dressing Diana up like she was Colin's personal doll to their mutual delight, and another showing members of both their families and Merlin's watching 'Monty Python and The Holy Grail' with both adults and children calling out together to a character that 'Your Mother was a hamster and your father smelt of Elderberries!'.

And there was Lee and Oliver in their mid-teens, the latter a mirror image of Colin at that age, and the way their arms were entwined and their closeness to each other as they walked down what Harry assumed was their school's hallway...well huh.

Though a little bit weird since Lee looked just like him and Harry could say with one hundred percent certainty that he'd never looked at Colin like that or vice versa.

Then an image of-Diana wearing the type of jacket commonly worn by athletes? With their country's name on the back that suggested she was somewhere representing said country. Holy Shit, was that an Olympic flag he'd just seen in the background?

Oh. Eggsy and him walking down a grand staircase arm in arm, Eggsy having aged very handsomely while he...he continued to look much as he did in the present. A result of him having carried two grand high dominants in his womb? Hadn't Rachel said something about that? But either way they looked right together and behind them, also in evening wear, was their beautiful son and daughter, though Diana's dress showed a little too much skin in Harry's opinion. Why had he let her wear that? Though she was so grown up and beautiful and perfect and...

And then an important scene started playing before them in a new setting. One that showed most of the Guild Masters in the room as well as others Harry knew from his time as consort, all talking at once at a long table while a twenty something Lee stood at the head of said table trying to get them to stop talking. A late teens Diana was standing at her much taller than her brother's side with her arms crossed and wearing a glare that did not bode well for the men in the room. Except for Edward Morton. And what was he doing at a table full of Guild Masters?

"QUIET!"

The fact that everyone shut up at the roared order said something about Diana's reputation in the dragon world at this point in time.

"All of you need to shut your bloody traps and listen to my brother. We aren't trying to take over your sodding guilds or countries or the god damn world. Why the hell would we want to take over the world? You lot have all fucked it up at this point. Not to mention being a dictator is a thankless, never-ending job. And we both have better things to do."

'That's not going to reassure them.' Lee said to Diana telepathically, though Harry could hear them regardless.

'I can't help your sex's innate stupidity.' Was Diana's unspoken response before she spoke outloud again.

"Look. We all know the Fae are coming. EVERYONE knows that at this point. And while my brother and I are more than capable of protecting the United Kingdom we are willing to help you all protect your people as well. If you'll let us. So shut up and listen, or we won't be returning your calls or scheduling meetings with you when you come begging us to save you."

"I'd advise you listening to my godchildren. Though no more threats of violence, Diana. Please."

A sigh. "Yes, Uncle Edward."

"Thank you. Both of you. So, Gentleman...if we could begin again?"
