Harry Potter and all related charaters belong to JKR. and Gandalf and Snik belong to JRR Tolikein, and I've got not idea who the X-men characters belong to but sure ain't me.

Entering Hogwarts

Last night's visitors had been unexpected but it was good to see Kingsly and Tonks again. They talked for a while about little things of even less importance. But Sarah welcomed the change from the disscusions she'd been having. They appologized several times for not preventing Sirius's death but she waved such subjects away. Now she was back at Remus's waiting on her sister to get ready. They had to make it to Hogwarts at some point today. For Eve's peace of mind.

"Sar, you okay? You weren't all there last night." Remus asked from the kitchen table. The full moon was coming up so he wasn't much in the mood for games this morning.

"Oh. I'm sorry. Just had alot on my mind." she looked back at the stair case that lead up to the shared bedroom. "Merlin, what's taking her so long." Remus just grinned. Sarah and Eve had made sure that they could still fit in their old school uniforms. Altreations and all. Sarah and Eve had put cuts in the sides of their skirts and taken up the hem. Their shirts always had the top few buttons undone. They had easily made it through school with the grades, they were both on their house teams, but it was in areas such as popularity they struggled. Griffindor girls weren't impressed by the fact that Remus, Sirius, and of course James would rather spend time with the litttle know it all Sarah Winters. But none of that matter anymore. Except the two sisters had vowed to only return to the school in the same manor of dress they had left in.

"I'm sure she'll be down in a minute. She's got to squeeze in a skirt three sizes to small."

"Now that's the wrong response Re Re. Saying such things might make me upset. Then you might be sleeping on the couch." Eve said from the stair case. She had added the gray back to her hair and it only had green hightlights. It was a strange look anymore. Once it struck fear in all opposing seekers. Except James of course.

"Then lets forget I said anything."Remus said standing to greet Eve. Sarah smirked. Eve just skittered away from Remus and hid behind Sarah as he tried to give her a good morning kiss. Remus tried in vain to get past Sarah to Eve.

"Now I told you. Once on the train begining of third year. I made no promises to you after that." Eve said shaking her finger in his face. Sarah grinned.

"Yeah now her lips are all for dear little Sevvy." she teased. Eve's mouth flapped for a few moments before sound came out then it was just unaduible sounds.

"Now, girls. I want you to hurry back. Look both ways when crossing the street. Don't talk to strangers. Oh and remeber I love you. Now be good. I'll see you at dinner." Remus said handing the two imaginary lunches and rushing them out the door. On the door step he kissed the foreheads and turned them toward his drive.

"I don't think he'll ever truely grow up." Sarah commented.

"I ask all the gods in the heavens everyday to prevent him from growing up anymore. He might realized we're not little kids anymore."Eve said. Moments later the normal adrenline rush washed over them as they apperated to Hogsmead train station. From there they'd take the walk up to Hogwarts. Or at least that was the plan. As they made there way from the station out into the streets ignoring the staring eyes of thoses who still belived they were mentally disturbed.

Of course we are. You try playing cat and mouse this the darkest wizard of this century and tell me that your still mentally intacted. I'd bet my last galleon you were lying.

Sarah thought. Her and her sister gave them smiles and nodds occasionally. A few would say something to them, but most just whispered among themselves.

"Did you ever think we'd be walking back into Hogwarts just to meet with the potions master?" Eve asked breaking the silence between them.

"I imagined walking back to Hogwarts for a lot of different reasons but not to see the potions master. You?"

"Only when I thought Severus would actually make it to Potions Master. He always wanted that postion untill..."

"Yeah. That changed..." Sarah never finished her sentance. A smooth, cold voice sounded behind them. It smacked her like the broad side of a sword.

"Hello, my dear girls." Lucious greeted them. "Fine morning isn't it?"

"It was till you showed up."Eve said venom dripping from her voice.

"Ohh now my sweet little Evey. You know where you'd be with out me? You do I know you do." he cooed.

"I'm not your Evey Lucious. Now if you don't mind we have to get to Hogwarts."

"I see. Now two such...delicate beings such as yourselves shouldn't go with out an escourt." he said almost with a sneer.

"I'd rather eat my own stomache than have you for an escourt. Besides that delicate beings don't kick your arse as easily as we do." Sarah spat starting to walk away. She didn't get far because when she turned she saw Lucious holding her sister against him despite her struggling to get away.

"We were talking Sarah dear. No one walks away from me when I'm talking to them." Sarah didn't say anything just strode back towards him finding her wand in her pocket. "I'd hate to have to hurt your little thorned rose." he said running the tip of his wand down the side of Eve's face. Sarah knew no one would stop him from doing anything. No one was dumb enough to try that. She also knew unless it was absoultly nessasary Eve wouldn't use her powers. Sarah was left to make her move.

"What do you want Malfoy?" she asked trying to keep the contempt from her voice.

"Now let me think... Oh yes what was it I asked you for the other day when you came for your little shall we say payment? Your sister wasn't it? And here we are in the middle of a crowded street. I've got what I asked for and you can't do a single thing about it with out landing your self in Azkaban." Sarah gripped her wand tighter knowing he was right. He knew the loop holes and safe spots. He knew the way her mind worked and wasn't above using it to his advantage.

"You want me? Why didn't you say so?" Eve asked turning to look at him the moment their eyes locked his face contorted with pain and Eve began to pry her arm from his fingers but whatever she'd just done with his mind didn't last long enough he'd recovered and had her twisted in his arm he pulled up her sleeve to relveal her dark mark. Eve refused to look at it.

"He would be pleased to have you back in his power. You know it's almost a pity to see such beautiful, flawless skin tattoed with such an ugly mark. I'd never let Narc get one. But you refused to listen to Severus. You couldn't be second string. You were so eager to taste murder. To feel the rush of thrill." he said his breath raking across Eve's neck.

"That's enough Malfoy. Com'on these two ladies haven't done you any 'arm." came the welcomed voice of Hogwart's Grounds Keeper. Lucious released Eve to straighten himself to look Hagrid in the eyes. Eve quickly covered her mark and shot Hagrid a thankful grin."Go now Lucious trample off." Hagrid shooed. With out waiting for the blonde's response Hagrid ushered Sarah and Eve infront of him toward the path leading to Hogwarts.

"How'd you know we'd be here?" Sarah asked.

"Oh...err...He 'old me ya'd be down 'ere this mornin'." he said.

"That man doesn't miss a trick." Eve said with a smirk.

"That he don't. 'ou ya 'ere ta see?"

"Severus." Sarah muttered. Trying not to set Hagrid off.

"I see." he mummbled. His eyes twinkled." 'ell let's not dwell on that. You two are jus as pretty as da day ya left."

"And you've never been more handsome." Sarah added. Eve rolled her eyes. Her sister had long ago taken a liking to playing with men's minds. Hagrid gave a hearty laugh. The three fell into conversation as they made their way up the path to Hogwarts. Sarah and Eve stopped to gaze up at the castle as soon as it came into view. The last time they had seen their old school they were with Sirius, Lilly, James, and had Harry and Rose in their arms. It seemed like a lifetime ago.

"She's a beut ain't she?" Hagrid asked. There was no point in answering. A more loved and beautiful castle had never been built. Once they were on school grounds Hagrid excused himself to his first lesson of the day and Sarah and Eve headed toward the dungeons.

Harry sat in potions class listening to Snape drone on about the potion they were about to make. He explained how important it was not to add to much of any one ingredent.

"Now you may begin. The instructions are on page tweenty-fou..." he was cut off by a knock on the door. "Tweenty-four. Now be silent while I deal with whom ever has interupted out subtle art." he said striding to the doors on his way he pulled his wand and opened one of the two doors. He stopped dead in his tracks two women stepped in the room. One in a Griffindor uniform and one in Slythrin. Their hair was dyed to match their uniforms. Besides theses the only difference between the two was a green oval on the Slythrin's forehead. It could easily of been the marks of an over faithful Slythrin except it swirled with it's own life.

"We were looking for the famed Potions Master." the Griffindor said with a small soft voice. Several of the boys in the room had turned to look at the two visitors. They looked quiet a lot like normal 7th years. Would of passed for it too had their eye's not betrayed them by revealing years of worry and fear. Neville seemed to be trying to place the two.

"You've found him." Snape said recovering from his shock. Harry and Ron snickered behind their hands. Hermione just glanced back in disgust before returning to her potion.

"Good. We've got some information to retrive from him." the Slythrin said smoothly. The way she held herself screamed Slythrin.

"Is that so? What might this information be about?" Snape asked. "And whom might you be?" he added.

"Eve"

"and"

"Sarah"

"Winters." They said their own names and both said 'and' and 'Winters' together. This action made a good demostration of the fact that they were twins. Nearly everyone in this room had seen Fred and George do the same thing.

"And the information?" he pressed. Both women looked at their houses' rivals.

"This should be discussed in private." Sarah said her eyes resting on Neville who quickly looked away.

"Away from prying eyes, and uninformed ears." Eve added.

"I see. Go to my office. I'll be right there." Sarah and Eve did as they were instructed. As they disappeared behind the door Snape turned to his class."I don't want a single noise heard in here. Be silent." He turned to add something but stopped short and continued to his office. Neville automatically turned to Hermione.

"Did they say they were Sarah and Eve Winters?" he asked seemingly stunned.

"Yes Longbottom, they did. I see I'm not the only one to hear about them. Disgusting, No? Served the Dark Lord. Eve ended up in Azkaban. Sarah had some kid with a man she barly knew and after her parents and daughter were murdered she went insane and fled to the mountians. She tried to join a group of banshees. I'm shocked our prophesor is seeing them." Malfoy ranted from his seat.

"THEY'RE NOT INSANE!" Neville yelled out. Everyone turned to look at him and he went red but didn't back down.

"Oh they're not?" Malfoy asked his goons standing up.

"No. They are as sane...sane as your father is." Neville said losing his nerve. Of course saying Malfoy's father was sane was pretty far off. But his point hit a nerve

"Are you saying my father is mentally unstable?"Malfoy pressed further.

"Go suck a dung bomb Malfoy." Ron said getting irritated.

"No one asked you Weasley." Ron's ears went red.

"You said he was unstable not me." Neville answered. Harry understood why mental issues would be a sensitive topic for Neville. But still picking a fight with Malfoy was out of character. As Crabbe, Goyle, and Malfoy drew there wands Sarah and Eve stepped out.

"Your Potions Master will be with you in a moment. Longbottom, Granger, Weasley, and Potter. I'd like to speak with you after class. Malfoy, we heard what you said. I'd like to correct your story a little." Eve said calmly.

"Rewrite it more likely." Sarah breathed. Eve glared at her.

"Yes, one of us served Lord Voldomort. Yes, Sarah had a daughter but she knew her daughter's father. Yes, after Rose and my parents were murdered she ran to the mountains. She went to find a good friend of ours who lived in the mountains. One more thing. We've never met a bloody banshee. So, Malfoy before you go spreading such horrible things about people research them. Or you might end up like your father. Living off your inheritance, married to a woman you don't love, with a kid you can't stand, and the only true joy in your life comes from finding old school mates and doing to them what you did to them when you were kids teasing and badgering them untill they feel like a heap of dung. Your father is only acting like his father who acted like his father. So break the chain you imbred pure blooded twit." Eve finished her little speach and headed to the door. Her sister trailing behind her trying to smile the whole time. Harry couldn't help but smirk at the look on Malfoy's face.
