Well, I really hope that you guys liked this one!! smiles
Chapter Ten (The Epilogue)
Harry and Luna were married almost a year after Voldemort was captured. Harry went through his Auror training, and was now working in the Ministry of Magic with some of the same people he had met the year he learned of the Order of the Phoenix. Luna was still teaching at Hogwarts, although she still submitted an occasional article to her father's magazine.
Hermione had to take time off of her job as a Gringott's curse breaker. Her and Ron had their first baby, a girl whom they named Angelina. She had Hermione's eyes, and the telltale red hair of almost every Weasley before her. Ron and Hermione did eventually have another child. This time, it was a boy. They named him Neville, after their fallen comrade and close friend. Ron had been teaching at Hogwarts for two years, and he and Hermione had finally saved up enough for a small house of their own. They decided to move into a place that was only twenty minutes from the Burrow.
Ginny took after Fred and George, opening up her own shop in Diagon Alley with the help of Dumbledore and her parents. Instead of a joke shop, Ginny sold herbs and various different things for magical in-home remedies. Her store was a great success. A week after her niece was born, Ginny made the cover of Witch Weekly magazine.
Professor Lupin taught Defense Against the Dark Arts at Hogwarts until several months after the Weasleys daughter was born. There have been no recurrences of the incident in his first year of teaching. He has daily contact with both the Potters and the Weasleys, and was even present at the birth of Angelina.
After the incident with Voldemort at the Weasley wedding, Dumbledore reluctantly retired from his post as Headmaster of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. He is now the Minister of Magic. He took over at the Ministry after the former Minister, Cornelius Fudge, had a rather interesting breakdown after the capture of Voldemort. He still visits the school regularly, and is said to be in the process of electing the next Hogwarts Headmaster. Remus Lupin was inaugurated as the new Headmaster of Hogwarts just after Angelina's first birthday.
Harry and Luna had their own reasons to celebrate later that year. A month after they found out about Lupin's new position at Hogwarts, they celebrated the birth of their twins. The oldest (by two minutes) was a girl. They named her Lily Katelyn Potter. Lily's younger brother was named James Sirius Potter. Both children look more like Luna ("Thank goodness!" Lupin joked after they were born). Lupin was named godfather to the twins, who, later in life, actually started calling him 'uncle'.
Harry still has the photo album Hagrid gave to him from his parents' wedding. Several of the pictures now sit on his mantle with the pictures of his own family. When the twins start at Hogwarts (which, even Luna admits, will be a little while) Harry will pass his father's cloak on to his own children, along with the story. The problem is, there are so many stories. There's story of his parents, and the original Marauders, which will undoubtedly become a bedtime favorite. But then, of course, is his story. The story of mommy and daddy, and their friends, Neville, Katie, and Angelina, and how they died. Luckily, he's got quite a while to think about how he's going to explain it to them.....
