Harry watched as the snowflakes fell to the ground, a white Christmas in London, what could possibly be better. It was Christmas Eve and Harry, Ron, and Hermione had apparated to Kings' Cross to greet Luna and Neville. Ron couldn't help but laugh at his best mate's lopsided grin. Remus, who had come with the group, swore that Harry looked just like his father when he smiled like that.

"Oy, mate," Ron called out to Harry, who was practically running to Platform Nine, "get that grin off your face, one of the press is going to kill you with a grin like that!"

Harry simply shook his head and continued to the barrier. When he finally reached his destination, he did a quick check for muggles watching and then ran into the barrier, after the incidents from sixth year, one muggle spotting the dark mark, and seventh year, the muggle police catching a death eater, magic concealment was no longer taken lightly.

Harry was momentarily joined by the other parts of the Trio and his beloved Guardian. The four of them made their way to the front, and waited patiently or not so patiently in Harry's case, for the train to arrive. Luna was the first one out. She hadn't seen Harry in almost a week and missed him terribly. She ran off the train and jumped into his arms, her bags flying every which way, along with her hair. Ron made a big deal of collecting all Luna's things while Hermione helped Neville with his baggage.

"I've missed you," Harry said into Luna's neck.

"Missed you too," Luna replied. Hermione 'awww-ed' at this public display of affection whereas Ron made inappropriate retching sound.

"Ronald Weasley," Hermione scolded, slapping him in the back of the head, "I think their adorable."

"'Mione, dearest," Ron countered, "You think House-Elfs are adorable, so don't get started." Neville simply shook his head and grabbed his and Luna's trunks. He then plied apart Harry and Luna and led the way out of the station. It was going to be a long two weeks.

That night, somewhere around eight o' clock, Hermione, Harry, Neville, Draco, Remus, Tonks, Kingsley, and Hestia made their way to the Burrow. Molly had invited them all over, along with Mr. Lovegood, Keira, Dean, Mandy, Susan, Fleur, Bill, Fred, Angelina, Lee, and Alicia. Molly kept saying things along the lines of, "Remus and Hestia better get a move on if the wedding's in a week!" Harry found this ridiculous because the wedding planning was practically done. Of course, Molly always found a way to go the extra mile, so Harry figured this wedding would be wonderful.

Hestia was wearing a long red dress that matched wonderfully with Hermione's green one. Both dresses glittered and had designs on them in sequins. Hestia had her hair down with a glitter spell on it while Hermione had pulled hers up into a tall bun. Luna was wearing a red, velour shirt with black pants, and Tonks wore black dress pants and a white blouse with silver and gold bells embroidered into it. Remus wore a black jumper ((pullover)) with black slacks. Harry was sporting a red sweater with black slacks while Ron wore a green sweater with gray slacks.

After apparating over, they all sat down for dinner. Molly had gone all out, they had turkey and beef and ham with beans, and potatoes, and chicken salad. Harry swore that he had never eaten so well, not even at Hogwarts. Once dinner was over, they cleaned the dishes and went into the Drawing Room, it was time for presents.

Molly opened her presents first. Hermione, Harry, Luna, and Ron had pooled their money and bought her a new clock with everyone's name on it. This included them, Keira, Draco, Dean, Remus, Fred, Lee, Angelina, Alicia, Fleur, Bill, Mr. Lovegood, Tonks, Kingsley, and Hestia. Molly was quickly brought to tears by how wonderful this gift was and she kept exclaiming over and over again how, "Now all of my family is on here!"

From Remus, Tonks, Kinglsey, McGonagall, Mad-Eye, and Hestia, Molly received a House Elf. Hermione, of course, went into hysterics about SPEW, but Remus assured her that it was a paid House Elf, and that they would be paying its monthly salary. Molly, who had not completely gotten over the clock yet, was in tears yet again. She decided to name the House-Elf Tika.

Fleur, Bill, Fred, and Angelina bought Molly a bouquet of never-dying flowers. They bought her Geranium for comfort, Lavender for good luck, pansies for loving thoughts, parsley for thanks, rosemary for remembrance, and daffodil for respect. Angelina, who had always been extremely good at Transfiguration, conjured a glass vase with a rose, a code, a jokester hat, and a halo decorating the border in a lively pattern. Angelina explained that the rose was for Fleur, the code for Bill, the hat for Fred, and the halo for herself.

Lee Jordan and Alicia Spinnet bought Molly a whole new set of kitchen ware. It was white with a red ring around the outer most edge and a green one in the center of the dish. Neville bought Molly a few books on magical kitchen herbs while Susan got her a magical recipe book so Molly could write down all of her recipes. Mandy and Draco bought her a centerpiece with the Weasley family crest engraved on it, and Keira and Dean purchased an instant magic camera so Molly would be able to take pictures at the upcoming weddings.

After Molly was done opening her presents, she insisted that Remus open his. Harry had created a photo album filled with pictures of the Marauders, Lily, Hestia, Emmaline Vance, Sirius old girlfriend, Harry, and Harry's friends. On the front, the inscription read, "Η κληρονομιΊτων επιδρομέων" which meant "The Marauders Legacy." Around the edges were ancient runes, and at the bottom were the names of the Marauders, their girlfriends, Harry, and his friends. After opening this gift, Remus enveloped his new godson in a hug, and Luna swore she saw tears forming in the werewolf's eyes.

Luna, Hermione, and Ron bought Remus a few large volumes on Defense Against the Dark Arts. When Remus asked why they simply smiled and shook their heads, but Remus figured they were up to something.

"What do you know?" Remus asked them.

"We just think that these books will come in handy, it's always good to read up on interesting things, is it not Remus?" Luna said.

"Yes, well..." Remus grumbled before enveloping the three of them in a hug, "Thank you."

Keira, Mandy, and Susan bought Remus a chain with a full moon, antlers, and a paw on it. Each charm had an inscription on the back stating the name of the animal/wizard, their best subject, and their girlfriend/wife. Remus clasped the chain around his neck and gave them each a hug. After their present, Remus opened Draco and Dean's. They bought him a few defense items, but they didn't say anything more than Luna when asked why.

After Remus opened all of his gifts, Fred opened his, followed by Bill, Fleur, Angelina, Lee, Alicia, Mandy, Susan, Dean, and Keira. Once Keira opened her last present, a red snake bracelet from Draco, she insisted that Luna open hers.

Luna smiled at Keira and opened her first gift, a necklace from Ron and Hermione. It was an eight way locket which held pictures of Luna, Harry, Ron, Hermione, Ginny, Neville, Draco, and Keira. On the front was the letters DA for Dumbledore's Army in blue. Luna hugged both Hermione and Ron before putting on the necklace.

From Neville, she received a few volumes on charms and a crumple-horned snorkack bookmark. Mandy, Susan, and Draco bought Luna a set of rainbow colored quills that lasted twice as long as the regular ones, so Luna could write interviews without changing quills. Keira bought her a crescent moon bracelet and a framed photo of Luna's mother. Luna was so overwhelmed by the picture that her eyes misted over.

Remus and Hestia bought her a ring with a daisy on it, which was now Luna's symbol along with the crescent moon, and Molly, Fleur, and Bill bought Luna a blue gown for graduation. Tonks and Kinglsey bought her a bottle of fairy dust, and Fred, Lee, Angelina, and Alicia got Luna a gift certificate to Flourish and Bolts.

Harry's was the last gift. Luna found it a bit odd because it had air holes in it. She slowly lifted the top of the box and found a black, purring, kitten.

"Oh," Luna whispered surprised, "Oh, Harry she's so beautiful." Luna picked the kitten up out of the box and began to pet it, hoping to coax away its shyness.

"I'm glad you like her, it took me ages to find her," Harry stated.

"But...Why?" Luna asked confused, "Black cats aren't exactly rare."

"No, but black cats with a crescent moon spot on their backs are," Harry explained.

Luna looked at the cat, and, sure enough, there was the white crescent moon spot. She looked up at Harry and gave him a kiss, "Thank you," she said, "Now, you have to open your presents."

"But you haven't named her yet," Harry exclaimed.

"I think I'll call her...yes, that will do, I'm going to call her Daisy," Luna stated. Then she sat the cat down, warned it not to get into trouble, and grabbed her present to Harry.

Harry slowly opened the box. It was large, so Harry figured it was a shirt or something. He lifted the box to find a brown envelope. "What is it?" he asked Luna, confused.

"Open it, silly," she prodded. Harry opened the envelope and a large smile illuminated his face.

"I got them, I got the papers," he exclaimed, happily, "Luna, the papers, I got the papers."

"I know silly, now calm down," Luna commanded, smiling.

Ron and Hermione both looked thoroughly confused, as did the rest of the group. "Umm, Harry?" Neville asked, "Care explaining to us lesser humans why on earth you're jumping around like a three year old?"

Harry paused and looked at them, "Oh, er, right. I got my papers guys, I'm a legal animagus!" The whole group let out a series of cheers. Harry had become an animagus last Christmas Break, but he wasn't legal until today. He had been helping Remus with his transformations, but that was about it. Now Harry was legal, he could transform whenever he wanted.

"I got you something else, too," Luna said once the cheering had ceased. She pushed another box into Harry's hands. It was a chain with a lion, Harry's animagus form, on it. On the lion's head there was a small lightning bolt scar. Harry smiled at Luna and had her clasp the chain then he gave her a deep, passionate kiss.

"Thank you," he whispered.

"You're welcome," Luna replied.

Harry finished opening his presents. Besides the chain, he received a bunch of defense books from Ron, Keira, and Dean, a Greek translation book from Draco, a book on prophecies from Hermione, and a bunch of other gifts from everyone else. His favorite gift, besides the chain, was a pet snake that Remus gave him. The snake was a Boa Constrictor, which Harry named Lotta, which means 'struggle' in Italian.

Later that night, while Harry lay in bed, Lotta lying next to him, he had to admit that this was one of his best Christmases ever.
