Disclaimer: I don't own Harry potter or the characters, just my original characters that will show up in this story. *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ *~*~* Chapter 26

Fred and George were hiding behind a bush looking out at a hut that looked abandoned enough. George scowled a bit, obviously feeling dumb on having to watch out for anything behind a bush with a bunch of grown men. "I don't see why we don't just attack." He informed.

"Because that's how Peter got killed." Snapped Ron. Ever since the death of one of their partners, Peter, the group made sure that there were no more deaths of beloved partners or mistakes like that of which Peter made.

"Quiet down you guys, I think I se something." Said Harry urgently. They all went silent and watched as a hooded figure looked around and the entered the cabin. They all went running up to the cabin and Harry tried to hush Seamus, who had just been shoved by Draco and was cussing him out. Draco glared at the man and then they all looked through the window as a blonde woman with flowing blonde hair removed her cloak. Seamus and Dean pressed their faces against the glass.

"She's a veela." They breathed. Fred and George both looked at Ron and Harry.

"Guys, look right there. Her kid. he's got a pet snake." Whispered Fred, pointing into a corner. The woman went and sat down next to her child, and ran her hand over his dark hair. He looked up at her.

"Look at him." Said Ron, leaning closer to the window. "He has to be about Matt and Mike's age living all the way out here." They leaned closer, trying to hear what the woman was telling her child until the snake began slithering in their direction.

"He can smell us!" panicked dean.

"HOW?" Everyone then looked at Seamus, who had obviously scraped himself when Draco had shoved him since he was bleeding through his robes. Fred and George were the first to quickly crawl off unnoticed, soon followed by the others, then the apparated to a medi-witch. *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

"And this one boy, I think he can talk to snakes!" informed Mikey excitedly at the dinner table as Hermione sat across from them, trying to finish some paper work. Her mom had volunteered to cook dinner.

"That's nice dear. Now why don't you and Matt go watch TV." She suggested and the kids obeyed. Mrs. Granger chuckled.

"Those children are so precious." She said.

"Yeah, but I'm glad that Ron was so fascinated with the television idea." Hermione said. "Who knows what I'd do if I couldn't keep those three entertained until bed time."

"So, will Ron be home for diner?"

"He's on a mission so he never really makes it home in time, but he does make time before leaving again." She answered.

"You must really hate that." Said he mother. Hermione nodded her head slightly.

"But we do need the money, and other than Quidditch and Chess, Ron feels he was made for this job." *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

"Hi guys!" greeted Hannah Longbottom brightly. Harry and Ron grinned and greeted her back. Most people liked to come to the Leaky Cauldron now that Neville was working there for Tom. Mostly because it was a nice atmosphere and Hannah was both attractive and nice. It was like being home. The Aurors, excluding Draco, who had went home in pain and the twins who complained about all the dodging they had to do, sat along the bar.

"So Hannah, how's everything with you and Neville?" asked Dean brightly.

"Every things great. We've got two kids you know." She said, nodding toward her daughter, Janet, who was being a waitress.

"She's about John's age, isn't she?" asked Ron, and she nodded.

"And then there's our son Tim. He's in the back helping Neville out." She then patted her stomach. "And I suppose there will be another on the way in a couple moths."

"Wow, you're pregnant? I wouldn't have even known." Said Seamus, looking at her belly, which hadn't swollen any.

"Congratulations Hannah." Said Harry brightly, and she grinned. Soon Neville came walking in, holding onto the top of a box as his two year old son made an attempt to help him carry it out.

"Oy, Neville!" called Ron, and the man looked up, then grinned at his old classmates.

"Hey guys." He said and set the box on the round, lifting his son onto a chair.

"Man, you've changed a lot. Who'd a thought you'd be this far along in life." Said Harry and Neville blushed.

"Yeah well, I try." He said, running his fingers through his sandy brown hair. Then he looked them over. "So, I hear you guys have all either had kids on the way or still do."

"I'm done having kids, thanks." Laughed Ron and Neville grinned.

"That's right. You had a double dose of it just two years ago, didn't you." The men all laughed brightly. *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Fred dropped on the bed and groaned tiredly. He ached all over and there was nothing that was going to fix it. Jackie was down in the living room sleeping on the couch with TV on so he could easily go to sleep without feeling bad. "Hey Fred." Said Angellina gently. He grunted in response as his wife dropped onto the bed with him. "I see you had fun today."

"If you call being tortured by your younger brother and his best friends fun." He said bitterly. "I ache all over." He whined.

"Aw, poor baby." Said Angelina in a teasing voice. Fred scowled, his face still buried into his pillow. He felt her shift her weight on the bed, then weight on his back.

"What are you doing?" he asked. She sighed and lifted his shirt.

"Giving your aching muscles a massage." She answered and Fred groaned as her hands moved along his aching body. "What's wrong? Does that hurt?" she asked gently nad Fred hook his head. She snorted and moved off of him. He sat up quickly.

"Where are you going?" he panicked. She rolled her eyes.

"I'm not going to sit here a pleasure you while our daughter is sleeping on the couch, Fred." She said, leaving the room.

"I don't see why not."
