It had been about a month since Harry returned home. After returning home with Ron, Neville and Draco's help Harry was able to move himself and his children back into their home along with his niece Hali. It was very tough for Harry being back in that house, knowing that Ginny should be there with him. But in time he got back into routine, it was what kept him going. Hali went back to Hogwarts and Jason and Anne went to school. Harry took care of Evan the best he could, he was lucky to have Hermione, Molly, Zizi, Ara and his own mother who all chipped into help especially when he was need on the quiditch pitch. He only continued playing for it kept his mind off of his worries, even if it was only for a little while.
Now it was Christmas break and Hali was back home. It was Christmas eve and Hali dragged in a tree and together Harry, his children and Hali decorated it. Harry keeping any sadness he felt under lock and key. Hali and Anne could be such worry worts. Harry hated to see his young daughter worry, he hated to see her feel like she had to take the place of her mother. So for the most part Harry tried to make every day as normal as possible. He never let his children see him cry and when he needed to get angry, when he needed to yell or strangle something he'd call Ron and they'd duel till Harry could no longer move.

"I am never doing that again!" Lily said as she stormed into the apartment, Clare and Joey waiting eagerly.
"It went bad?" Joey asked.
"Absolutely horrible" Lily complained.
What is she talking about you are asking yourself. Well Clare had decided that it was time for Lily to start enjoying her life a little more, that she needed to have more of a social life so she decided to take it upon herself to set Lily up with a co worker named Chris Katoy. Lily had been very reluctant to go on the date, she felt like she was cheating on some one. Her husband maybe but Clare and Joey had convinced her.
"What happened?" Clare asked, not wanting to push but wanting details.
"Want me to arrest him?" Joey asked, not kidding in the least. He'd do it in a second, even if it just got Lily to laugh.
"No! No I'm fine. List you two go out and have fun tonight. I'm staying in." Lily said heading to her room and locking the door behind her.
Quietly she sank to the floor and cried. She hated this. The date had actually gone very well, Chris was a lovely man, a gentleman but Lily herself the whole time could not help but want to run away from the man. Everything he said, did, and moved all she could do was compare the man to another in her head. A tall man with raven black hair and sad green eyes. She had no clue who this mystery man was but she wanted to. Desperately she wanted to.

"Jason?" a ten year old Anne said as she snuck into her twin brother's room.
"What do you want!" Jason grumbled.
"We turn eleven tomorrow." Anne whispered.
"So?" Jason asked, really just wanting to sleep.
"We get out letters tomorrow! Jason we are going to be going to Hogwarts! We are gonna be leaving Da and Evan all alone." Anne said as her brother finally sat up.
"Anne can we talk about this is the morning. I need sleep! The whole family is gonna be here tomorrow." Jason complained.
"Jas," Anne said using her nick name for her brother "can I ask you a question?"
"Fine, shot." Jason said wiping the sleep from his eyes.
Anne sat on her brothers bed and said, "Do you ever wonder what everything would be like if mum was still here. If she was alive?"
"Who says she dead?" Jason said.
"Jason come on, I'm serious. I mean it's been over six years with out her. You know how much it pains dad. You and I both know he still spends his nights having nightmares and crying himself to sleep. Jason we can't leave him. We can't go to Hogwarts." Anne said getting herself hysterical.
"Anne!" Jason said grabbing hold of his sister. "Listen dad wants us to go. We are going. We will write to him. All our Uncles and Aunts will keep an eye on him. Aunt Rose, Aunt Scarlet and Aunt Hali visit him regularly. Come on sis stop worrying. We are going to Hogwarts." Jason said, his dreams finally coming true.
"I can't help but worry myself. I miss her Jason. I really miss her. Do you remember how she'd sing to us when there was a storm." Anne said, her eyes having a far away look.
"Yeah though she could never sing on key like granmum Molly." Jason said, a pain flaring in his heart.
"I just wish she'd show up. You know Evan doesn't even remember her. It's like you and me are cursed Jason. We lost our Elven parents and we lost mum. Is there something wrong with us. Maybe we are cursed. We can ask Uncle Bill tomorrow he'd know." Anne said.
If his sister was not that the situation was so serious Jason would of laughed. It was funny how Anne could act so much like their Aunt Hermione sometimes.
"Anne lets get some sleep. Come on mum would not want us fretting and you don't want to worry dad do you?" Jason said, inviting his sister to sleep in his room tonight.
Anne jumped under the covers and laid her head on one of her brothers pillow.
"Thanks Jason." she said yawning and soon dozing back to sleep.
Jason stayed up for a little while longer thinking about what his sister said. They'd be going of to Hogwarts come September 1st. Anne, Chris and him would all start their first year. Their parents would see them off and they'd be home for the holidays and summer break but she was right their dad and Evan would be all alone.
"Mum I really wish you where around." Jason said as he to joined his sister in slumber land.
Little did either children know that when Anne snuck out of her room and into her brothers Harry woke up. He had always been a very light sleeper. He stood out side the door and heard Anne worry and his son comfort her. He wish he could, he wished he could hold his little girl in his arms and tell her it was all going to be alright. That he was alright but he hated to lie to his his daughter, to any of his children.
Since Harry returned home he had been doing everything possible to keep his children's lives as well as his own as normal as possible. He made sure they went to school, made their lunches, checked their homework and even took them shopping. He was thankful for the help of his friends. Especially Hali, even after going to Hogwarts she decided to spend some more time in his world. She told him that she loved it to much to just leave but Harry knew Hali had talked with her parents and stayed to help him.
Harry also was thankful for Janisa who fell in love with Oliver Wood and now had two twin sons. Many days when he needed to join Wood for practice Janisa happily took his children and watched over them.
So many of his family helped him but none more then Molly Weasley and his own Mum. When Evan was a baby and Harry had trouble getting him to sleep Molly and Lily where the first to arrive. Harry remembered the first time he took Jason and Anne out flying, they had just turned seven, he had only been home for a few months. While flying Jason had lost control of his broom and went plummeting to the ground, breaking his left arm. For sure Harry freaked out and if it was not for Lily and Molly (suprisingly) Jason and Anne would be locked up in protective bubbles.
Quitly as not to disturb any one Harry snuck back into his room and closed his door. He walked over to his dresser and pulled open the top draw and after moving his socks about he pulled out a frame. A picture of Ginny, him and all three of their children, it was right after Evan was born.
Most of the pictures Harry had of Ginny he put in the children's rooms, he kept none of them in his own but this one. It made him to sad to see her picture, it made him just want her more.
"Hey Temper." Harry said in a whisper to the picture. "I donno where you are Gin. I don't know if your dead though a lot of people believe you are. They don't say it but I know it. Anne even believes it. And they are right Evan doesn't even know you. He doesn't know your voice. Or the way you would of loved him. I promise you Gin I have not given up. I'd know if you where dead. I just know I would. I'll find you." Harry said lightly kissing Ginny's picture before hidding it back in his sock draw and laying back down. But he did not fall a sleep.

"Hali would you go wake the twins?" Harry asked s he flipped the pancakes he was in the middle of making.
"They've been up." Hali replied as she set the table for Harry.
"Where are they?" Harry asked, keeping an eye on the bacon.
"Living room. They are waiting for their letter." Hali said just as the kitchen door swung up and Evan came running in.
"Morning da, Aunt Hali." Evan said in his six year old little voice.
"Morning Evan. Go wish your brother and sister a Happy birthday and tell them breakfast is ready." Harry said as Evan nodded and ran off to see his siblings.
Soon enough the three kids came running into the kitchen and after hugs from thier father and favorite Aunt they all sat down as Harry distributed breakfast.
"No letter yet?" Hali said as she helped Evan cut up his pancakes.
"No." Jason said with a huff.
"They'll be here soon enough." Harry said. "Now eat up then you two can open your gifts, shower and get dressed. My mum is throwing your party this year so we can't be late." Harry said as Dobby and Winky both arrived in the kitchen, their eyes going wide to see that Harry had already made breakfast.
"Bad Mr. Potter sir!" Winky said, waving a fingure at him.
"Cooking is Winky's job!" the female house elf argued.
Harry smiled, he knew Winky would argue with him, she always did but he had come up with a good idea for once.
"Winky, Dobby my mum needs help today. She's having lots of people over would you mind popping over and seeing what you can do?" Harry asked innocently.
Both elves nodded their head and with a snap they where both gone. All three kids plus Hali started craking up with laughter.
"What?" Harry asked raising an eye brow.
"And once again the famous boy who lived fends off house elves." Hali said as she took another bite of her bacon, the rest of the table including Harry started laughing as a white Pheniox came flying in.
"Morning Hedwig." the room coursed as the phoenix flew down and peaked each of the children on the cheek before settling down on Harry's shoulder.
"They grow up so quick." Hedwig said to Harry, who was the only one who could hear and understand the phoenix.
Harry could not help but nodded in agreement. He still remembered finding Jason in that tree and the argument he had with Azura, rescuing Anne.
"Dad we're done can we open our gifts now?" Jason asked.
"Of course. You lot go get set up in the living room. I'll be there in a second. Just gonna clean up." Harry said as his two sons and daughter ran off, Hali following behind.
"You know," Harry said to Hedwig who was still perched on his shoulder, "they really have grown. I remember caring for them at school. I remember the first time Jason called me dada and when Anne started trusting me." Harry said.
"And you remember when you found out Ginny was their mother." Hedwig said what Harry was thinking.
"I'm going to miss them." Harry said, washing the last dish.
"They'll be back." Hedwig said, "And I'll go with them to watch over them."
Harry gave a weak smile and then walked into the living room, Hedwig flying of his shoulder and landing on her perch near the window.
"Alright who shall go first?" asked Harry picking up on the of the numerous wrapped gifts.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>...
"Lily can we talk to you?" Clare asked, indicating herself and Joey.
After a hard time of it Lily had finally pushed thw two together, as a couple. They would argu that seemed to remind Lily of some one but she wasn;t sure who. But in the end she ended up locking the two in the small bathroom one morning. By dinner time the two had been snogging. That was two years ago.
"What's up?" Lily asked knowing very well what was going on.
"Well you know last night Joey took me out for dinner right?" Clare said as all three of them sat down, Joey winked to Lily.
"Well come on out with it." insisted Lily.
"Joey asked me to marry him and I said yes." Clare said.
Lily jumped up with excitement!
"Oh my lord your getting married!" Lily said with excitement and hugging Clare, her best friend, her sister.
"Well there is not set date." Joey said earning him two very evil glares from his fiance and Lily.
"This is positively wonderful!" Lily said with joy, something she had not felt in a long time.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
"GRANDMUM!" Anne, Jason and Evan all yelled together as their Grandmother Lily hugged each of her grandchildren.
"Hello sweeties. And a Happy Birthday Jason, Anne." Lily Potter said, hugging her three grandchildren.
"Chris is out back waiting for you birthday kids. Evan, Nick is there as well." James Potter said, the three kids running off to the back yard.
"Where's Alec?" Hali asked.
"Talking with your parents dear." Lily said.
"My parents?" Hali said.
"Arrived a little while ago. Wanted to be here for the twins birthday and to see you of course, along with your boyfriend." Sirius said walking up to the group.
Hali's cheeks went red before walking of to see her parents, younger brothers and boy friend Alec Lupin.
"So how's my godson doing?" Sirius said patting Harry on the back.
"As well as I can I guess." Harry said taking the butter beer from his mum and walking into the back yard that was fully decorated befitting an eleven birthday for the Potter twins.
"So did they get their letters?" Hermione asked, joining the group.
"Of course. Which reminds me. Sirius do you wanna bring Chris along when we go shopping for their school supplies?" Harry asked.
"Of course." Sirius said.
"So who is teaching Defense Against the Dark Arts this year?" Harry asked his father and god father who until recently held the position.
"Can't tell you." Sirius said.
"It's a secret." added James.
"I still don't understand why you left?" Hermione said as her two year old son Griff came wobbling over, followed by her husband Ron.
"Dumbledore needed us for a different job. Top secret, can't tell a soul." Sirius said.
The day went on lovely. Harry was very glad to see Ona and Hayden along with his godsons who where two years younger then his twins. He also got a chance to see Hagrid and all of his brother in laws. Along with all his nephews. Yes that's right it seemed the Weasley curse continued. Only one girl born in a way to the only female Weasley, that being his daughter Anne. Harry felt a little pain for her just imagining the poor boy who would try and date his daughter.
Her father the savior of the world, six biological Uncles, this not including Neville, Draco, Bobby, Mark or Alec. Then there was her brothers, Chris, Nick and all of her other cousins who may be younger but Harry could already see all the potential they held.
Shaking his head Harry woke himself from these thoughts and continued to enjoy the day. They did not return home till late that night, after their tummies where full and their head full of laughter.

"Ah yes I remember well your wand Mr. Potter." Mr. Olivander said as the Potter and Black family entered the wand shop.
Harry nodded and pushed the twins and Chris forward.
"Hmm let's see. We shall start with the lady first I believe." the old man said as Anne stuck out her right arm to let it be measured.
"Alright then let's try this." he said handing her a wand.
"12 inches, it's core holds a dragon scale." he said as Anne gave it a wave and Mr. Olivander took it away.
For almost an hour they spent looking for Anne's wand, she was getting nervous. What if she wasn't meant to go to Hogwarts.
"Anne don't worry it took me longer then this to find my own wand." Harry said, calming down his daughter.
"Let me see. Yes maybe this will work. You are elvish are you not?" the old man asked.
But Harry answered, "In birth yes."
"Your mothers wand's core held unicorn hair am I correct?" he asked the question to Anne but Harry answered.
"Yes it did. 10 inches, unicorn hair, made from bark of a holly tree." Harry said.
"Try this child." he said handing Anne a wand, bright red sparks flew.
Anne smiled brightly. "What is it?"
"11 inches, holly and unicorn hair I believe from the same Unicorn as your mothers." the old wand maker said, Anne only smiling wider.
"Alright boys your turn."
Chris ended up with the 12 inch dragon scale wand while Jason's was 11 inch, pheniox feather.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
"What happen!" Lily said holding Clare who was crying her eyes out, sobbing.
"Joey! Joey! Lily he's been shot. Oh god Lily what if he's dead!" Clare said unable to control her sobbing.
Lily held Clare tighter, it was the only thing she could think of doing.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
"Alright you two I want you to stay out of trouble." Harry said hugging Anne and Jason.
"We will." they said happily.
"Good. Now Hedwig is coming along. You need anything just send her to me alright." Harry said not beliving he was seeing his kids off on the hogwarts express.
"Dad we will be fine." Jason said, as Anne gave him one last hug and headed for the train.
"Jason," Harry said, "keep an eye on your sister alright." Harry said.
"Course dad." Jason said as he and his best friend and cousin Chris Black followed Anne onto the train and into a compartment.
Harry stood for a very long time watching the train going, his godmother, Zizi Black standing next to him.
"I can't believe they are gone." Harry said.
"I know it was just like they where little tykes not so long ago." Zizi said, already missing his own son.
"Well hopefully they just won't wreak havoc like a certain group I know." Zizi said.
"Oh yes I hope not." Harry said with a laugh.
"So do you know what Dumbledore has Sirius and my dad doing?" Harry asked, knowing James and Sirius where both on the train.
"Nope." Zizi said.
"I'm glad with who the got though to teach Defense." Harry said.
"As am I. Alec and Hali are perfect." Zizi said.
"I agree." Harry said.
"Do you think she will ever return to pyrexia?" Zizi asked.
"One day she will. She after all will proclaim the throne there where her parents pass over though that wont be for a very long time." Harry said.
"Do you think Alec and her will you know get married?" Zizi asked as they made their way out.
"Maybe. But for now don't you think we should be concentrating on another marriage." Harry said.
"You mean two." Zizi replied.
Harry laughed, "Yes the union of Mark Evans and Scarlet Malfoy Weasley. And Bobby D'lore and my sister Rose Potter." Harry said.
Zizi laughed with mirth.
"Your mother is having kittens you know. After you eloping and then your 'fake wedding' she really wants this one to go off with out a hitch. Molly is the same way with Scarlet's." Zizi said.
"Both weddings should be lovely." Harry said.
"Have you heard from Blaise and Trey?"
"Last I heard they where in Russia. Exploring the world, like Blaise always wanted to." Harry said when all of a sudden in the middle of muggle London Harry let out mind blowing scream before dropping to the ground, clutching his head.
Zizi watched in horror as the lighting bolt scar, the scar that had been fading since the death of Voldemort started to bleed, shining bright red.
"Harry!" Zizi yelled holding down his arms, keeping him from scratching himself.
But Harry gave no response as he laid there in pain, a pain he had not experienced for a very long time.
At the same time, far away at Hogwarts as Dumbldore sat in his office waiting for the students arrived he felt a magic surge ripple through the air. His suspicions coming true. Turning to the sorting hat and Fawlks he said,
"It seems it will be starting again."
