Me: Merry Christmas, everyone! I hope you have a wonderful one!

Well, my right arm is sort of back to normal, but not as much. There's a limit on how long I can type and write now, so sorry. But I would like to thank all of you for supporting me and wishing me well. And don't worry, I'm virus free…minus my allergies as normal.

Well, shall we get going? I know you guys have been waiting for quite sometime for this update and I hope you all enjoy it.

The entire night, Lily was telling different stories about his brother, Draco and his half-sister, Eileen. As it was getting close to curfew, Lily was guiding Alex back to the Gryffindor tower when they heard two familiar voices.

Alex and Lily peeked at the edge of the hallway to see James talking to Harry.

'Why is dad/James here?' thought Alex and Lily.

"Harry, son, please understand," said James, softly. "I never meant to ignore you. Your brother needed the attention. He'll soon need to face Voldemort when he returns."

Alex could see Harry glaring at his father and his hands were glowing bright red. Lily whispered, "I hope Harry is controlling his emotions or this won't end well."

"If you and your mother come back, I promise everything will be different," said James. He grinned, "We could be a family again."

Harry gritted his teeth, "You really think your sorry excuse will make me forget! Fat chance, Potter! Once this blasted tournament ends, my family and I will be returning back to Salem – where we belong!"

"But son, Snivellus is dark! He's a bloody Death Eater!" argued James. Lily noticed Harry's furious expression looked like Severus.

"He was no follower! He was your freaking spy in the first war!" snapped Harry.

James smirked, "Sorry son, but he was. He was friends with Death Eater students during our time in Hogwarts. Not to mention, he called your mother that foul word in our fifth year."

Lily covered her mouth, 'James, are you trying to turn Harry against Sev?'

"I know about that," said Harry before snapping, "And it was because of you that dad called mom that 'M' word – so stop giving me bull of lies!"

James narrowed his eyes, "And who told you? It was Snivellus, wasn't it? Whatever he said, it was all lies!"

Lily had enough and walked out from her hiding spot. She marched over to James and pointed her finger in front of his face.

"If you like to know, it was me who told Harry about my downfall friendship with Sev," said Lily, seriously. "You even verbally attacked me because I was defending my best friend!"

Alex widened his eyes, 'Dad, how could you?!'

"Lily…Harry…" started James before being interrupted by Harry.

"Shut up, Potter! Enough of your bull crap! You're not my dad so stop calling me your son! I'm Harrison Severus Snape, the son of the youngest Potion Master Severus Tobias Snape and Charm Mistress Lily Rose Snape nee Evans! Leave me alone!"

Lily watched her son march away from them. She turned around to see James in complete shock.

"L-Lily?" said James.

"Save it, Potter. Enough is enough. Leave me and my family alone," said Lily.

Alex watched his mum leave and his father looked furious. He sighed sadly before heading back to the Gryffindor tower. When he entered, he saw his friends in the middle of the common room. Hermione was sitting on an armchair and reading a textbook while Ron and Neville were playing chess.

Alex collapsed next to Ginny who was finishing up her Herbology essay.

"How was your meeting with your mum, Alex?" asked Hermione.

"Alright…" started Alex before sighing, "But I don't think there's a chance I can rebuild my connection with my brother."

Hermione frowned, "What do you mean, Alex?"

The auburn teen told them what he and his mum overheard between Harry and his father before they headed off to bed.

In the morning, Alex and his friends were walking to the Salem Academy table. Sally took notice and tapped Harry's shoulder to get his attention.

"Wha – great. Now what," said Harry, seeing his half-brother heading towards him. He got up and walked to Alex, "What do you want, Potter?"

Alex took a deep breath, "I…um…I want to apologize for my behavior. I…I know this wouldn't fix our brother bond or undo anything what dad did to you…I just hope there's a chance we can be friends at least."

"…How do I know this apology is genuine?" asked Harry, crossing his arms. "Your father tried last night but failed as I can sense his bull crap of lies!"

Just before Alex could respond, a girl with short brown hair and dark brown eyes tackled Draco. Lizzie gritted her teeth and her eyes turned crimson while the girl was hugging Draco.

"Um, there's a pig-nose girl hugging you Draco," said Dan.

"I could see that, Dan!" said Draco and trying to push the girl away from him. "And you – whoever you are – release me!"

"How dare you use that tone with me, Draco Lucius Malfoy! And how dare you forget about me! Why did you stop owling me, nine years ago?!"

"Wha? Who – Who are you? And that's not my name anymore!" said Draco.

While the Snape twins and their friends were confused, Alex and his friends went pale. Without thinking, Alex pulled Harry away from Draco.

"I'm alright being related to Wilson, but you," said Alex, pointing his wand to Draco, "You're Lucius Malfoy's son – he's a bloody Death Eater!"

Harry widened his eyes, feeling a slight protective aura forming around Alex and a powerful one in Draco. He grabbed Alex's arm, "Stop Potter! So, what if Draco's birth father is a Death Eater? That man didn't raise him! Draco will not suddenly turn to him and follow in his footsteps!"

"He can't be trusted! Let go!" argued Alex.

"No!" snapped Harry. "If you're truly sorry, then stop this! Or you're just like your father!"

Alex widened his eyes, recalling last night and slowly lowered his wand. At the same time, Lizzie was able to pull Pansy from Draco.

"Back off, pig-nose brat!" snapped Lizzie.

"How dare you?! I'm the future Lady Malfoy and I demand respect from you, you…you – ahh! You're a bloody vampire! Get away from me!"

The very little students and staff stopped eating to see what was going on.

Roxanne gritted her teeth, "Respect?! Why should we respect the likes of you?!"

"You can't marry Dray. He's already taken," said Sora, softly.

"What?! Who dares take my title and future?!"

"He's my soulmate, brat! So, back off!" said Lizzie, grabbing Draco's arm and pulled him to her side.

"How dare you! You don't deserve to be Lady Malfoy! That title belongs to me and me only, you filthy dark creature!"

"Miss Parkinson! That's quite enough!" shouted Minerva.

Suddenly the Great hall started getting warm which got Dan's attention. The brunette got up and walked over to Harry who was glowing bright red, "Taking Har outside to cool off. See yea all in class."

Draco nodded and watched Dan guide Harry out of the hall. His parents and Headmistress entered as Dan and Harry left.

"Draco, what happened? Is there something wrong with Harry?" asked Lily.

That when Minerva stepped in and told them what happened to the Snape twins, Alexander, Lizzie and Pansy. It was there that Pansy got a week of detention and lost one hundred points for being disrespectful to a student guest.

-Nov. 13, Friday-

Harry was extremely annoyed.

He was outside attending his combine Potion and Herbology class when a seventh year Ravenclaw Prefect marched to Professor Severus Snape, telling him that Harry needs to attend the weight of the wands.

Severus nodded and Harry followed the Ravenclaw Prefect.

What annoyed Harry the most was the photographers and the reporters.

After several pictures, a man name Ollivander stepped forward and will be looking at their wands. He looked over at Viktor, Fleur and Cedric's wands which passed before the wand maker walked over to Alex.

"Well done, Mr. Potter. Your wand is well taken care," said Ollivander after looking over at Alex's wand. The auburn teen nodded before getting back his wand and placing it back into his robes.

"Now, what do we have here? Mr. Snape, correct?" said Ollivander as Harry nodded. "Tell me child, how's your mother and father doing?"

"Alright sir," replied Harry. "How do you know them, sir?"

"I gave them their first wands. I remember as it was yesterday. Your father was Birch, 10 inches with dragon heartstring and your mother was Willow, 7 ½ inches with unicorn hair," said Ollivander.

"I've seen those wands, but my parents needed new ones," said Harry, handing his wand to the wand maker. "Mom's element was unlocked, and dad's creature inheritance was unsealed. Their old wands didn't work anymore."

Alex and the others were shocked. Lily was an Element user and Severus had a creature inheritance?

Ollivander nodded before widening his eyes upon seeing Harry's wand. "Mr. Snape, does Salem uses gems instead of wood?"

"That's right," said Harry as the reporters gasped and quickly took out their quill and parchments.

"This wand is crafted beautifully," said Ollivander, happily. Turning over the wand, "12 inches, Brazilian Quartz with light brown handle and a scale from a heat mermaid. Prefect for a Fire user. I'm honored to finally see one this rare. Thank you, Mr. Snape."

Harry nodded and took back his wand and put it back into his holster. "You're welcome, sir."

Ollivander smiled and told Ludo that all wands were in prefect shape for the tournament before leaving with a sprang on his feet.

Alex couldn't believe that his brother owns a powerful wand. He was walking to his brother when a woman with rather bright green dress, her blond hair was bun up and was wearing red glasses.

Alex made an annoyed face, 'Not her…'

Ludo smiled, "Champions, this is…"

"Rita Skeeter from the Daily Prophet."

"Not bloody her," murmured Alex.

"What's wrong about her?" whispered Harry.

Alex leaned to Harry, "She loves to twist things around in her articles and…there're times she gets information without being there – information that's not supposed to be revealed!"

"Mm sounds like she's an animagus," said Harry before making a face. "There's no fucking way I'm being interviewed by her."

Alex agreed when they were pulled from their collars. Both teens turned around to see a smiling Rita. "Let's start with the youngest champions, shall we?"

Harry and Alex were dragged by the blond reporter into another room. It looked like it was a former teacher's office. Rita pushed the two boys to two chairs and sat across from them.

Rita summoned a quill and notebook, "Now, where do we start?"

Alex held up his hand, "Reasonable questions, Skeeter or I'll send a message your boss, understand?"

"C-Crystal," said Rita, knowing she could get fired from the Potter's. She cleared her throat, "Right, sate your names, schools you attend and what year you're at."

"Alexander Charlus Potter. I attend Hogwarts and a fourth year Gryffindor."

"Harrison Severus Snape. I go to Salem Academy, a seventh year Prefect Elemental."

Rita smiled, "Now, why did you two entered into this…dangerous tournament? Was it for the glory? Fame? The money?"

Alex snorted, "Like I need more praise."

Harry shook his head, "Neither, madam Skeeter. My school shouldn't be here. I was force to partake this barbaric tournament!"

Rita frowned, "What do you mean 'forced'?"

"Someone placed my name in the goblet while I was at school – at Salem!" replied Harry.

"Same for me," said Alex. "I wasn't near the goblet. The only time I was, is when two of my friends try to enter their names but failed."

"Aging potion?" said Harry.

Alex nodded.

After the interview, Harry dashed out from the unused classroom and was heading to the Great hall when he heard his half-brother calling him.

"Wait up Harry!"

Harry sighed, "What?"

"Look…the apology…it was genuine; honest!" said Alex, looking down. "Aunt Lily told me what really happened, and I couldn't believe it."

Harry stayed silent, but he can sense the guilt aura around his brother.

"Just…give me a second chance," said Alex, softly. "I'm not asking for forgiveness, but a chance we can be friends again."

Harry narrowed his eyes, "Apologize to Draco. We're brothers. We carry the Evans bloodline."

"Alright," said Alex. "Hey, um…how about a friendly game of Quidditch? Your friends against my friends?"

Harry thought for a moment. He shrugged, "Sure, why not."

"Brilliant!" said Alex, happily. "See you and your friends at the grounds after dinner."

Harry nodded before the two entered the Great hall for lunch. Harry walked over to his table while Alex went over to the Gryffindor table.

"So, how was it?" asked Draco.

"Horrible," replied Harry, making an annoyed face. "Glad that Alex warn that Skeeter woman to not write lies about us. I always hate interviews."

"Potter, did that? But why? He's been nothing but a jerk to you," said Lizzie.

"Aren't all siblings like that?" said Harry, pointing at the Kuso twins. "Besides, he's still my half-brother. I'd like to get to know him without Potter bugging in."

Draco sighed, "Pure heart…Alright, I'll give him a second chance."

Shun crossed his arms, "I'll agree when I see it, to believe it."

The others agreed.

"By the way, he challenged us to a Quidditch game after dinner. Us against him and his friends," said Harry before smirking, "Who's game?"

Draco, Dan, Diana and Sally had a huge grin while Shun and Yusei nodded. Roxanne, Sora, Vienna and Marucho just shook their heads.

After dinner, Alex and friends were waiting at the school entrance when the auburn teen spotted Harry and his friends coming over.

"Glad you made it," said Alex before biting his lip. "Um…Ma – Draco, I'm sorry I called you a dark wizard. Can we start all over?"

"We can, but I warn you now…don't mess with me, got it?" said Draco as his fist glowed blue.

Alex backed away, "C-Crystal. Now let me introduce yea to my friends."

"Come now Al…"

"We can introduce ourselves."

"Fred and George at your service, Snape twins!"

Draco smirked, "Looks like we're not the only ones, Har."

"I guess not. Might be a twin thing," said Harry.

"We think so!" said the Weasley twins.

Ron covered his face while Ginny giggled. The young redhead smiled, "I'm Ginny Weasley, a third year Gryffindor and the youngest of the Weasley's."

"Neville Longbottom, fourth year Gryffindor."

"Luna Lovegood, third year Ravenclaw."

"Right, introduction's over. Who's playing what position?" said Dan, magically summoned his broom to his hand.

When everyone decided their position, Vienna was about to start the game when Harry spotted two adults waving towards them

"They're here?! Dray!" said Harry, happily.

Draco looked down to see the two familiar adults. He grinned and the Snape twins flew down to the adults and hugged them. Alex and the others flew down as well.

"What in Merlin's name is going on here?!"

-Break Line-

What you guys think? I hope the grammar is a bit better…I hope.
