Harry Pov
Harry just said goodnight to Hermione he was shattered but read his 2nd 1st Hogwarts letter. He couldn't believe he was being adopted by his grandparents a chance for a real happy childhood.
Despite being shattered he didn't sleep he slipped out of bed at 3am he crawled across the hallway feeling bad because he eavesdropping Mipsy when she took Hermione to her room but glad her knew where it was he open her door and crawled into bed "Harry what are you doing here?"
Mumbled Hermione "couldn't sleep strange place" replied Harry. Hermione looked at Harry "It will be ok" they then snuggled close and went to sleep.
4th August 1971
They were woken up to something dipping on the middle of the bed. Hermione opened her eyes first and saw a figure on the end of the bed he looked like harry black messy hair but with Hazel eyes she nudged Harry to get up "Oi Harry get up" Harry stirred and got up only to see someone looking like him. Hermione asked "who are you?"
The young boy looked smug "I'm James mum told me I gained a sister and a new brother always wanted siblings now I have two I do have one very important question what are your names?"
Hermione and Harry's mouth dropped open James seemed incredibly arrogant Hermione said "you don't know our names your mum said you had new siblings and you didn't know are names" James grinned "well all I heard was new siblings I was excited"
"I'm Hermione" as they introduced themselves "and I'm Harry" replied Harry James took this as an invitation to get in the middle of the bed.
"Nah think I'm going to change it to Maya as its easier". Hermione glared at him "I hate nicknames tell him harry" Harry grinned "Yeah she doesn't even let me call her mione she has a temper if you piss her off" some how it already feels like home.
James sighed "Mum will love you as she a black and blacks have bad tempers but I'm not calling you Hermione"
Hermione still glaring at James and Harry "fine Jamie" Harry chuckled "Don't like Jamie but think i'll get used to it, I just had a birthday recently" James then poked Harry and Hermione. As Harry said "my birthday is 31st of July and Hermione is 19th of September"
James replied " No mum said were triplets and have the birthday of 30th March."
Harry asked "how's that going to were we don't look anything a like" James smirked "mum and dad want to do the blood adoption makes you officially Potters and will share are looks but she wants to go Diagon ally in a couple of days to get our books and stuff come on mum said to get up and downstairs"
They all got off the bed they grabbed there dressing gowns laid out by Mispy and followed James into the dining room. Mr and Mrs potter were already seated. "Morning dears did you sleep well I hope James didn't wake you up to abruptly"
Harry smiled "No Mrs Potter it was fine" Mr Potter looked up "Might as well call as mum and dad as you soon will be"
Dorea looked at them as she smiled "We will be doing the blood adoption tomorrow to give you chance to recover, then the following day me and Charles will sign your Adoption papers to make it legal"
Hermione grinned she looked at James I think I would like a fresh start a new name Maya Dorea Potter" James replies "Yes I knew I would win mum says I have a face you can't say no to" Hermione Glared at James "Fine Jamie but I will take you down a peg get you back at Hogwarts"
Dorea smiled "I think Maya is a lovey name I also think I should name your godmother my cousin Andromeda she will love you and the only one who will know your adopted she has a baby daughter Nymphadora what about you Harry?"
Harry was shocked over Hermione eagerness to forget the past "I still like Harry but maybe change my middle name to Charles" he grinned at Hermione they smiled at each other.
Dorea pleased with the children Right like Maya your godmother will be Andromeda not sure about godfather yet"
Charles smirked "right today I will be teaching Harry about House Potter also who are enemies are James you be coming with us as you need reminding. Maya you will be with Dorea who will teach you about being a pureblood witch, Courtships and what the lady of the manor does any question" they said no.
After breakfast Mipsy cleared away the table when Hermione went to help Mipsy growled and Hermione quickly released the plate Mipsy grinned "young miss learns now go with Mistress for education"
Charles took James and Harry to the study while Dorea took Hermione to the Library
Harry point of view
Charles sat both boys down "Right do you know anything about Pureblood traditions" he asked harry who said no "I will fix that now the number one rule is do not turn your back on someone it's considered an Insult one of the worst things you can do unless you know there an enemy, always shake a someone's hand unless like I said before there an enemy you never go in to business with Dark affinity family unless there grey because it can turn around and bite you. Next always be civil to Grey affinity unless you have proof there dark. House Potters words are apud courage and vincere voluntās succedunt by courage and conquer we will succeed
Harry eyes went wide he never considered that ignoring some people like he had was rude he had a lot to learn he hoped that this time around he could be a better man then he was before this would be a fresh start for them.
Hermione pov
Dorea sat Hermione down in the library "Now my dear what do you know about being a pureblood witch?"
Hermione frowned "nothing apart from that there usually arranged into a marriage contract" suddenly feeling embarrassed" Dorea smiled "Not to worry now when a a someone is wanting to get involved in a romantic relationship there required to send a letter of intent to head of the famliy as long as they have asked the witch first. Once it has been accepted by the Head of House there a couple not allowed to see anyone else romantically now when a person asks the witch what there answer is to a letter of intent there are to options the witch could burn the letter and if that happens they can never be romantically involved again. Or the could accept it and send a letter to the head of house who will start a marriage contract. The next most important thing is always dress appropriately when in public places. When a witch marries and if they get a manor they become lady of the manor..." so the talk went on
Hermione wondered why they stopped teaching this at Hogwarts it seems like a stupid idea for muggleborns not to know.
Normal point of view
When it was about 6pm in the evening Mipsy called them in for dinner meals were served in the dinning room, when it was 10pm Charles and Dorea sent the children to bed.
Harry and Hermione we nervous that night they would take the blood adoption potion tomorrow and become a family a chance to leave the past behind or in Hermione case leave the baggage with Hermione Granger and start a new as Maya Potter forever linking her to Harry.
Harry and Maya woke up at 4am in the morning unsure about the days events rather then worry they crept down the hallway into James bedroom Harry went on one side and Maya went on the other James woke up "What are you doing here?" Maya grinned "we have years to catch up we were worried your really okay with us becoming your siblings" James put both arms around Harry and Maya "Yes your my siblings my job is to protect you two I want you in my family" Harry and Maya snuggled close "it's our job to protect each other were a pack now" they all snuggled close and fell asleep.
5th August 1971
When Dorea went to wake the children she check James bedroom and smiled she whispered "Charles come here and look at this" Charles came over he grinned at the sight of his children "we made the right choice my love". They went downstairs to the dining room to wait for the kids the blood adoption potion was finished yesterday so they can take it after breakfast.
When the siblings woke up they got dressed to they went downstairs to have breakfast.
Dorea spoke up "Harry, Maya after breakfast I would like you to take the blood adoption potion it will make you sleep till tomorrow while the changes take place it won't be to painful dears" a chorus of "Yes mum" as they ate the breakfast.
When breakfast was finished Harry and Maya went to Maya room so they could stay together.
Charles spoke up "Right then we need a strand of hair from you both once you have added your hair to your potion you will use our family ritual knife to prick the tip of your finger you need to allow 4 drops of blood to the potion and wait 2 minutes when it's done you can drink it" Dorea handed Maya the ritual knife and both of them a phial each
Maya took a strand of the hair and put it in the phial she then took the ritual knife she pricked the tip of her finger she squeeze her finger to allow 4 drops in to the phial she handed the ritual knife to Harry who copied the process after 2 minutes they were told to take the potion which they took. It wasn't long before they were fast asleep.
