Harry's PoV
"Miss Weasly, will you please pay attention!" I scholded my student. The Gryfindor first years were having their first Transfiguration lesson and Chelsea Weasly wasn't listening to a word I was saying. Quite the contrary, she was brushing her long red hair, and staring out the window. But when I spoke she turned sharply around and locked her large brown eyes on me. She resmebled Ron in so many ways; apperence, attitude towards the Malfoys, and stubbornness.
"My father said I don't have to listen to you because you betrayed him when you were in school," she said, continuing to brush her hair. Then she put her brush back in her purse and took out a makeup kit.
"Miss Weasly, Transfiguration is an inportant part of your magical education. It will come up more than once in the O.W.L.s and on the N.E.W.Ts, and I know your dad cherishes good grades. Although those test seem far away this subject is quite complicated and will take a long time to learn. And it is quite interesting, if I do say so myself."
"Yeah, transfiguration's the best," Damon said, "like if you want to become an animagus, that's transfiguration."
"And turning things into animals, thats always fun, more transfiguration," Melody said. I beamed at my daughter and my nephew.
"Excellent," I said, "ten points for Gryfindor for the extra studying."
"Chelsea, just listen to him," Brian said. Now Brian was something else. He may look like Weasly, with the Weasly trademark red hair, but he seemed to have the personality of his mother, Cho. I found it rather amusing that my school best friend would end up marrying my fourth year crush. Isn't it funny the way fate works. "You know Father wouldn't like it if you failed Transfiguration, and thats what'll happen if you don't listen." Chelsea looked at her brother and finally put her makeup away. Brian also seemed to be the only one who could get her to listen to someone else.
The lesson ended and hour later. Damon and Melody had been the only ones who had managed to turn there matches into needles, but Brian had come really close. Chelsea on the other hand had accomplished jack-squat. Her match remained the same as it was when I gave it to her. But that was expected, she hadn't listened when I explained what to do.
I walked down the the Great Hall with Melody and Damon. Damon looked just like his father. He had the same silvery blond hair, the reason he was so easily distinguishable as a Malfoy and the same gray eyes. Melody on the other hand didn't look anything like a Potter. No she looked like her mother, long strait silver blond hair that curled slightly at the ends, ice blue eyes, and the smile that made me fall in love with her. We came up upon David and Harmony coming up from the Dungeons with Draco. David looked just like me, execpt that he had his mothers eyes. Harmony on the other hand looked like Hermione did at age 13, only her hair was strait.
"How was your lesson?" I asked my brother-in-law, Draco.
"Really good. That boy of yours gets smater every year. He earned 15 points for Gryfindor in one lesson."
"Damon's a really good student too. He was the first to get his match turned into a needle, and he earned 5 points for Gryfindor for answering a question too," I said, "But that Chelsea Weasly, she gave me a lot of trouble, and all because Ron said not to listen to me. She's probably going to just give you even more."
"Well she'll just have to live with me," Draco said, "And Alacia too. She's got the little guys later today."
"I thought they had you later," I said, "Melody said she had potions."
"Well, I only have the Hufflepuffs later, so she probably ment tomarrow."

Damon's PoV
I walked down the dungeon steps that were now as fimiliar to me as to any Slytherin. I was going down to see my father. Melody, David, and Harmony were with me naturally, we never went anywhere alone. Only now we weren't the fab four anymore. No now we were the Fab Five, because Brian was just as much one of us now as any of us were. I couldn't belive we had been at Hogwarts for 3 months already, it was November, and I couldn't believe how fast Brian had become like a member of the family. Not that I have anything against the Weaslys. In fact my favorite shop in Hogsmead is Weaslys Wizard Weezes. We've all become pretty good friends with Fred and George, especially me and David. We love practical jokes. Dad thinks we take after Uncle Harry, but I can't, I'm not related to him. The first time I said that to dad he just said I spend too much time with him and David, which is probably true.
"Hi dad," Harmony said. Her words brought me very shaply down to Earth.
"What did you want us for Professor Malfoy?" Brian, of course.
"First of all, don't call me Professor out of class, Brian. Second of all, I wanted to know if any of you play Quidditch."
"Common, Uncle Draco, do you even have to ask," Melody asked, laughing. Melody loves Quiditch. We all do. Melody, Brian and I all play Chaser. I've never actually seen Brian play, but judging by all the Weaslys I've seen on the Quiditch cups in the trophy room, he's got to be good. Harmony meanwhile is the best Keeper I've ever seen, nothing gets by her. As for David, well, he's just like his father, a seeker, born and breed. He has the natural talent that he got from Uncle Harry, plus all the training he's had since he was about 5 make him the best seeker I've ever seen. He could probably play for England if he wan't only 13.
"Well, tryouts for the House teams are today, and they finally said first years can play. If you all make the team, which I'm sure you will, Gryfindor will win for sure."

Melody's PoV
"This is great, I'm so glad we all made the team," Damon said.
"Well, we are all great Quiditch players," David said, laughing.
"Yeah, you do fly very well," Brian said.
"I can't wait for our first game," I added
"Yeah what is it, Gryfindor v. Slytherin?" Harmony asked.
"I think so," Damon said, "And we're going to win to."
"How do you figure that?" Harmony asked.
"Because Slytherin can't win if they can't score any goals, and you know nothing gets by you," Damon said, "And if you expect David to miss the snitch you've got another thing coming!" We entered the common room to thunderous appluse. Apperntly the rest of the house had heard that we had made the Gryfindor team. Finally we were able to get up to our dorms and get some sleep.
