The Next Generation-Dark Marks and Troublemakers

Author's Note: This is a third part to The Next Generation. If you've read the first two, you'll know what's going on in here. But, there are four new kids, and a set of them are twins, one you'll know if you read Trouble Continued, and the third showed up in the last Chapter of Trouble continued. So read on and tell me what you think.

Hermione crossed her arms and glared at both John and Ron. After their mission, they stayed home a week and now they both seemed eager to get out the house and go back to work, she didn't know why. Alex was sitting at the table sipping at her tea and looking very groggy. Hermione already knew not to ask her daughter what she was doing last night. "C'mon Hermione, you know we need to get back to work to make enough money to feed us all." Whined Ron. She rolled her eyes.

"Oh please, Ron! The twins and Jordan aren't here to feed and Alex and John are hardly ever home for dinner," she looked at her two older children accusingly. "Its not like we're feeding many people."

"Mum, we've been extra bored lately! We've gotta go to work. Plus, I think Jessica and Chris are hiding something from me."

"So what? They're adults now, not little first years who argued about everything on the face of the earth." John rolled his eyes.

"Please, mum. They still argue now like they did back then." Hermione threw her arms up in the air in defeat.

"Fine! Go on then. I can't wait until Christmas break to see my real children again." She muttered. John turned to Ron with a guilty look, but he just shook his head and they went on their way. Hermione growled and slammed the dishes into the sink.

"C'mon mum, we're not little kids anymore." Informed Alex, getting her mother's attention. "Man, what are you gonna do when we get married and the twins and Jordan are off at Hogwarts?" Hermione glared at her.

"What? Are you planning on leaving your poor mother already?!?" she announced. Alex rolled her eyes and smiled at her mom.

"I want to get married while I'm still young mum." She threw her arms in the air sarcastically, causing her daughter to laugh. She looked at her and smiled.

"Really though, what happened to the Jonathan and Alexis Weasley that loved to be at home when they weren't off at Hogwarts studying day and night?" she asked. Alex shrugged.

"Your wish came rue and we finally grew up."

Seamus looked over the top of his magazine and beamed as Harry came walking up to their small group. "Oy Harry! A bit late aren't we?" he asked. Harry just shrugged. No one was really working today. All the young aurors were off doing their own thing and Chris had just left with John. Harry sighed and dropped into a seat next to Ron.

"Hey mate, what's up?" asked Ron causally. Harry scowled to himself.

"In just four months Sara will be marrying that moron." He answered bitterly.

"Four months? That's pretty soon." Said Dean. Harry nodded.

"Yeah, she wants to run off and get married on Valentines Day." He muttered and a look of disgust crossed his face. Ron shook his head and went back to his magazine.

"That's kids for you. And to think none of mine have decided to make that jump yet."

"It's a shame really. You're gonna have to go through this twice, Harry. After Sara, give lily about eleven more years and she'll be on her way." Said Seamus. Harry groaned and buried his face into his hands. Ron smiled sympathetically and patted Harry on the back.

"Don't worry. When Christmas comes up, the whole family will get to spend time together, without any annoying boyfriends hanging around." He piped. Harry just grunted.

Author's note: I'm going to go on and get into December now, but the things that occurred will be talked about among the characters. Please review and tell me what you think so far!
