Disclaimer: I don't own Harry Potter, or anything included the Harry Potter novels, the world, and the characters. Not Mine...
A/N: I changed the previous chapter some, so if you've read it before March 14, 2005 you may want to re-read it, I didn't change it much, but the parts I added I plan on making important to future plot. Btw, if you see mistakes pertaining to the Harry Potter Characters, Story, or World, can you make me aware of it? I would really appreciate it.
Chapter 2
Both Davi and Joseph (as the rest of the world with the exception of Davi called him) could pull up some money and manage to get to London, both could call up favors and go for free, but instead they choose floo. Joseph HATED floo. And the second they arrived at the Leaky Cauldron he made sure he would let Davi know the next time he had to use floo he would-
"God! Let's never do that again!"
-he would… "Cheers to that!" he said disregarding the thought and leading her from the dark and shabby Leaky Cauldron, out to Diagon Alley. There would be things to buy and people to visit before he could teach her what he wanted to teach her, or had been asked to teach her, teach her what he would never forgive himself if he didn't teach her (harmless counter-curses, and powerful unforgivable curses, that he would teach her merely because he knew them, and he wasn't supposed to know them, and he'd been told not to.) He grinned as she jumped at the sight of a Gringotts goblin. It would be a long month, he thought, a long month indeed. And even after those thoughts, he grinned excitedly.
"Oh my fricking god." Davi said suddenly. Glaring at her watch, wearing new robes and holding a new wand in hand (Rowan with a strand of a kitsunes 6th tail 9 inches vain and temperamental) and giving a horrified look to Joseph she said "We're late." And with that, they dashed through the alley and to The Leaky Cauldron. Dodging and rushing thought the crowd they managed to make it in a little more than five minutes, they found the Headmaster drinking something and holding a conversation with a boy their age. The boy turned to face them. He smiled. "Akil" he said with a nod of acknowledgement. Joseph returned it.
"Potter, what brings you here?" Joseph said awkwardly.He was still breathing heavily. Davi sighed, he did not do well with people. Not well at all.
"Getting an early start in my shopping is all, you?"
"Same, and introducing my friend to the wizarding world," He stopped and saw Davi looking at him expectantly "Davi this is a classmate of mine Harry Potter, Potter, this is my best friend Davi" he hesitated "Amol"
"Amol?" He asked his eyes widening. He smiled both glad her eyes didn't fall on his scar and glad to see the little sister of Page. After regaining his composure he bid his farewells and walked on to find Ron and Hermione She looked a hell of a lot like him. But he'd never seen her in Hogwarts and as far as he knew Page had been the only non-muggle in his family. The question was. What was she doing in Diagon Alley speaking to Dumbledoor? He did a mental shrug and seconds later found himself at the mercy of Molly Weasly
Davi was feeling rather hyperactive by the time they were sitting in a table in the corner of the Leaky Cauldron. They had gotten over all initial chit-chat by the time they were settled and Dumbledoor continued with it, Davi was beginning to feel restless.
"Why was the Potter-boy surprised to hear my last name?" She asked suddenly in the middle of a comment on the weather. Joseph choked on his apple. Dumbledoor with one heavy pat on the back liberated the caught piece "Thanks" Joseph said wiping his tear brimmed eyes.
"He knew Page," He muttered "He's in the same house Page and I were in"
Davi bit her lip. She looked down her face red and fist shaking. "Headmaster, would you care to excuse us for a minute"
Without waiting for a reply she grabbed her friends arm and dragged him away. "Page- My Page, MY TWIN BROTHER WENT TO THAT SCHOOL AND YOU NEVER BOTHERED TO TELL ME!" She shouted and holding a poker face, she punched him square across the face. She bit her lip holding back tears, not wanting to think, to feel the pain again she slid onto the floor. Avoiding Joseph. Joseph placed a silencing spell on them and hugged the now crying girl.
"Sorry, he didn't want you to know… thought you'd be ashamed that he could never be a muggle like you, that you'd figure he'd become a lost cause or sumthin' you know how much he sucked on the computer. He wanted to be like you, and he thought this was the complete opposite"
She continued sobbing. "Is there anything else… did he die like they said he did? Anything else at all?"
"Well… We dated, the last six months of his life, and no he didn't die like they said. He was killed in a raid by some death eaters. We snuck after an Auror and ended up in one of the biggest raids in the past 10 years. He was incredibly powerful and was plowing through those death eaters like nothing. And then…" he stopped, remembering the nights events.
He had been running to keep up with Page, shooting off defensive spells while Page was on the offence when Page suddenly stopped and Joseph ran into him. "Vol-Volder- He-who-must-not-be-named!" He remembered Page saying taking a step back. Only to fall over Joseph. They were next to each other Joseph, on reflex had immidietly grabbed Pages hand. Page looked up at the man with fierce determination. When the monstrous-snake like man turned to them Page pointed his wand square between the man's eyes. He held Joseph's hand tightly. And Joseph heard:
Run and tell Tonks were I am. I'll handle this.
What! No way! I'm not leaving you with this thing! He responded
Listen. Just run.
With some of wandless magic he pushed Joseph and got him running.
Take care of my Davi, let her know. She will always have a part of me with her, From this day on, We'll have never been any different.
He continued running but could hear no longer, he only got an impression of what they spoke of. The thing had wanted something of Page's. Page told him to sod off that he'd just given that away (or something to that effect). And then Joseph fell, gasping, clutching on to his chest, he fell in front of Tonks and saw Darkness.
He was woken a week later in a muggle hospital, Davi in the bed next to him, also hurt. Page in a viewing soon to be buried. Joseph remembered waking Davi and calling his parents. They had barely made it to the funeral.
That was the first he had seen Davi cry.
"Then he was killed by he-who-must-not-be-named. He had made me run away and he died. A week later, I was with you"
She held onto him for a minute and then let go. "So you're gay?" was her only comment.
"I still like girls… but also guys…"
"So you're bi?"
"Yep. Bi."
"…oh, well when you're ready you should help me hunt sometime."
"Please Excuse us for that sir, I certainly hope you weren't too bored in our absence." Davi said as if the last few minutes had not happened. "Can I ask you something?"
"Obviously, you've just done so." He was smiling, that twinkle in his eyes. She smiled.
"I would like to ask you weather you have any ideas of the sudden emergence of my powers? I personally believe it has to do with the death of my twin, Page."
"I would assume so as well, It is an extremely rare occurrence for any transference of power to a muggle, only heard of in legend, but still not unheard of. And your brother was particularly powerful as I'm sure you've heard"
"Only recently. Uum… Is there a particular reason why I was chosen for this school? Do my brothers' powers have anything to do with it?"
"You are a smart girl," was Dumbledoors only response before he changed the subject.
Davi allowed the sudden change, feeling that was enough of an answer.
Joseph however was musing about the effects of that night, a year ago.
It took a month for Davi to speak.
He had been left secluded, for the majority it was thought he had left Page to die, they said he didn't deserve his place as a Griffindor. He had always been a loner, he didn't mind not being spoken too by the majority of the school, he did hate that whenever he was spoken about they were confirming his insecurities.
He was without his boyfriend.
Davi was without her brother.
He had never felt so alone in his life.
For the first time, he hated everything.
Feeling extremely depressed he excused himself and left into Muggle London. Ounce there he wandered into a Starbucks and pulled out his Cellular Phone.
Dad, Shopping in London, B back
L8, Tell Davi's
Dad K?
Jo-Jo
Feeling satisfied enough he sat back, yawning.
"Hello, Joseph" Joseph turned towards the voice. Now what were the odds of meeting two of the golden trio in separate places in one day. They generally treated him well enough, well they hadn't been at the raid, he assumed they'd heard about it from Dumbledoor, or Tonks, or someone else from the 'anti-evil society' as Page called them.
"Good Afternoon Hermione." He said pleasantly not nearly as akwardly as he had been with Harry. "Care to join me for a few?" She almost looked as if she'd turn him down until-
"Who hit you!" she asked suddenly noting his cheek. He rubbed it, a smile lingering across his face.
"My best friend, Davi, I uhh… surprised her" She sat across from him staring.
"That must have been one powerful blow! Here" she handed him an ointment of sorts. "I got it from Madame Pomfrey last year, after… well y'know what, It should have it healed in no time." She smiled pleasantly, "So how has your summer been?"
"Fair enough. Nothings ever how… it should be, but one must adapt"
"I agree, and you've taken it better than most would."
They were quiet for a minute. "Hey, wanna see something?" He asked suddenly pulling out his laptop he laid it on the table while Hermione watched him curiously, he logged in and pulled open a file from his desktop.
A video popped up. You could hear someone gasping for breath while holding the camera. They aimed it Directly at a girl who was aiming a gun at someone and then to the victim, Joseph who was in a karaoke stage blushing furiously and singing the opening song to Sailormoon, while the girl and cameraman were laughing histeractly.
"He-he… wrong video…" Joseph clicked out his face mirrowing the one that had been on the screen seconds ago.
"That girl looked like Page!"
"That was Davi, his twin, she'll be in Hogwarts this coming year."
He played another video. Page was sitting at the Griffindor common room relaxed in one of the huge chairs his legs hanging over the side.
"Alright! Before we get cought lets get this started!" It was Page.
"How long does this spell last?" It was Joseph
Page shrugged "How would I know? I made this one up, it didn't come with instructions."
Hermione looked instantly impressed.
"Davi this is for you! I do this for you! These stupid little interview thingies." He said directly to the camera pointing at it laughing. He cleared his throat, and tried to look serious, though he had to stop and laugh.
"Question number one: Who is your favorite classmate?"
"Why you of course!" He began blowing kisses at Joseph.
"No! Who do you admire the most?"
"ummm…" He began thinking "You? No? Well I like 'Mione. She's cool y'know always answers the questions, and she puts up with her bratty friends, loyal to a fault y'know. And bloody smart! Smarter than I could ever be… though she likes to think If I " He put on his best Hermione imitation "Applied myself" he went back to his normal tone "I could be the greatest, well never greater than her Harry, I don't think I could face Voldie the way he does on a semi-yearly basis, and I will never beat Ron in Chess, but I think she thinks… If I did my best I could outdo her-" He stopped suddenly serious. "Now don't get jeaolous! But… If I liked girls she'd be it. She'd be my dream girl. She's pretty, she's smart, she's supportive and loyal. I like her, But boy I hope she gets with Ron cuz seriously that boy needs a girl like her."
Joseph stopped the tape. "After that he starts getting graphic as an apology on what he would do to me when I chose to date him… you don't want to hear it." Both sat there blushing. "I think he loved you…" Joseph said
"I-I think he loved you more." She said "He knew me but not as much as you. He didn't care to know me that well because, he had you." She went and got her mocha. Joseph smiled at her.
"I can see what that fag saw in you." He said he drunk his coffee and she tapped him upside his head. He laughed.
"It was nice to see you Hermione, I saw 'your Harry' earlier, he was speaking with the headmaster, and he met the new Muggle Tech teacher,"
"We have Muggle Tech! Is it like a computer class?"
"With that girl teaching it'll be a hell of a lot more than a simple computer class. Chances are you'll be hacking by the end of the first semester!" He grinned "Are you even good on a computer?"
She shook her head. "Only fairly well…"
"Are you taking the course?"
"Certainly I'll do my best to get it."
She smiled at the American and shook his hand. "It was nice to see you also."
"Have a good evening"
"You too"
"By the way we should go fighting evil by moonlight! Winning love by daylight!-" he threw abit of his bagel at her. She dodged it and laughed. She grabbed his arm "C'mon lets go to Diagon Alley"
