"that's an awfully big wish list, Rosemerta," said Siruis looking down into his glass of fire whiskey.
"taking the twins was an awfully big wish list," countered Rosemerta, pouring herself a glass " and Alexia and Trey have nowhere to go, Travis went to Romania to help Charlie and Iris is off with Tonks,"
"I'll make sure that they come to stay with you each summer, do they know what's going on?"
"They don't need to know yet, and how do you plan on doing that? You've been branded a traitor," said Rosemerta
"I'll slip a message in to Dumbledore," said Siruis, draining his glass "I have to go," Rosemerta opened the door and let him out before going to sleep herself.

"Alexia! Wake up!" said Zane, cheerfully. Alexia came round with a start and saw Zane, Trey, and Ace standing over her.
"what's up?" she smiled, climbing out of bed.
"auntie Rosy is making pancakes!" said Ace, grinning broadly. Alexia yawned and stretched, then headed down stairs with everyone else. Rosemerta smiled at them and dished out pancakes over the bar.
"deesh arff gerrt aunn rozy," said Zane through a mouth full of pancakes. Rosemerta smiled.
"Alexia, Trey, I have some news for you," said Rosemerta, unsure to call it good or bad.
"ok, shoot," said Trey
"you won't be seeing Iris or Travis for awhile," said Rosemerta "Travis is in Romania helping with dragons and Iris is off doing something for the ministry,"
"how long until we see them again?" asked Alexia.
"I'm not sure, they'll write, you'll be staying here over the summer," replied Rosemerta
"every summer?" said Trey. Rosemerta nodded.
"this is gonna RULE!" said Alexia, jumping up and hugging Zane and Ace. Rosemerta sighed in relief.
"hey aunt Rosy, can we take them flying?" asked Ace.
"don't hit any trees!" said Rosemerta. Zane and Ace were already out the door with Trey and Alexia following them.
"I thought the broom hut was behind the inn," said Alexia. They were in the street.
"if we're playing Quiditch we have to have players!" said Zane. They walked into a broom stick shop.
"Wood!" said Ace, walking over to the counter. The boy at the counter glanced at him.
"up to your old tricks, Ace?" said Wood, glancing over at Alexia "better hang on to her, she looks like a keeper,"Wood winked at Alexia, she blushed furiously.
"up for a round of Quiditch?" asked Ace.
"Max! take over for me!" yelled Wood, leaping over the counter to join them.
"I'll go get Ivan and the rest of the lot, you guys find who ever else wants to play," said Wood. They walked out into the street and started for a group of mean-looking kids.
"what's the deal with that Wood guy?" asked Trey
"Quiditch captain at Hogwarts," said Zane "Griffindor," They reached the group of kids.
"you guys up for a round of Quiditch?" asked Zane
"do you know who we are?" sneered a boy with a black Mohawk
"would you care to tell us?" said Alexia. The boy looked at her carefully. Blue eyes blonde hair. Little vixen.
"we're the Dementors, best team around, honey," he said "I'm Dirk by the way, captain Dirk,"
"well, we're the phoenix and we'll give you a run for your money," said Wood, approaching with Ivan and another girl they didn't recognoze.
"it's on," said Dirk.
